My eyes shot open and my vision blurred as I tried to refocus. I look around as my vision cleared. I was still in the hospital.

Tied to my bed were, "get well!" balloons and others in the shape of a heart. How long have I been here?

Then I remember.

I had him; I had our baby then I passed out.

Calum was here. Is our baby okay?

I looked around searching for the call button and hit it a few times. About a few minutes later a doctor walked in.

"Mrs. Jones your awake. Welcome back."

"Doctor Smith is it? How long have I been out? What happened to me? Is my baby okay?" My mind was just so jumbled up with confusion that I couldn't stop questioning.

"Mrs. Jones you have been out for about a week. What happened to you is a hematoma. You lost a lot of blood and passed out. We thought you would wake up after we got blood in you however, you didn't. And your son is fine. He is in the care of his father and grandmother."

I sighed lying back in the bed with relief staring up at the ceiling.

"Doc when can I get out of here?"

"Well later we're gonna run a few tests and see how stable you are. I give it about two days."

"Thank you."

"Would you like me to call your family?" I just nodded. She left with a smile leaving me in my thoughts.

I start to think back to a week ago before I passed out. Calum was here. How the hell was he here? And my baby. I never even got to hold him. I never got to name him, to sign the birth certificate. I feel horrible.

I grabbed my phone off the bed side and started to go through my messages. It was mostly people texting, "get well," or, "I miss you." Things like that.

Except Calum's when I pressed on him it was a picture, a picture of our baby and some of him.

I scrolled back to a week ago to see when it begun. It was a day after I'd passed out. It was pictures of him and the baby. With messages like, "We miss you," or, "we love you!" I thought it was dorky but cute.

A smile was on my face as a tear ran down my cheek. My boys. I love them so much.

I wiped it as I heard on knock on my door. When I looked towards it Joy walked in, then came the rest.

Joy gave me a hug, then Mali, then Nina, and finally Calum who was holding our baby boy.

"Hey doll face." Calum says smiling cheekily.

I began to cry. I can't believe he's actually in front of me.

"Aww baby don't cry," He wiped my tears with his thumb then looked down at our baby, "Someone's ready to meet you."

I just nodded and Calum began to hand him over to me. He perfectly fit in my arms and snuggled up to my chest. I grabbed his itty bitty hand and it rapped around my index finger. His eyes opened to look at me and they were dark brown, just like Calum's. He also had a little bit of hair growing too.

"Calum he's so-"

"Handsome? I know he gets it from me." He jokes.

"What's his name?" I asked hoping it wasn't something stupid.

"Well Nina told me about the baby names you two had discussed, without me by the way. And the one I liked the most was Isaac. Isaac Thomas Hood."

"It's perfect." I said looking down and touching his tiny nose.

Everyone was just standing around smiling and being happy, until Calum's phone started ringing to which he pulled out of his sweatpants pocket. He looked down at the screen and his eyes widened.

"I gotta take this. Be right back." He answered the phone the walked out of the room shutting the door.

I wonder what that was about.

I looked down at my baby boy who'd already fallen asleep in my arms. I smiled and looked up at Nina, Joy, and Mali who were standing around my bed.

"So does anyone wanna explain how the hell Calum's here right now?"

Nina laughed, "I may have helped a little bit."

"By a little bit she means she payed off his bail." Mali said bluntly.

My jaw dropped, "Nina where the hell did you get that type of money? What'd you do, sell crack?"

She walked up next to my bed and placed her hand on my shoulder, "See my friend. What you don't know is my parents are, well off. And I just asked a teeny tiny favor."

"Teeny tiny? One million dollars is not teeny tiny. Nina why?"

She crossed her arms and sighed, "Don't ask me why! Say thank you hoe. I could've left your convicted baby daddy in jail easily."

I laughed, "Thank you Nina." She smiled and gave me a side hug not wanna to crush the baby.

"I'm hoping that he's my Godson."

I smiled, "Of course Nina nothing would make me happier."

Calum's came back in and shoved his phone in his pocket, "Who was it Calum?" His Mom asked.

"Huh? Oh, uhm it was just Ashton."

Nina and I looked towards each other then looked back at him, seemed a little suspicious. But nothing to fret over now. I'm just happy that I'm even here right and not deceased.

"Calum open the door for me please." I stepped inside the familiar house that I called home.

It seems like I haven't been here forever. I looked over into the kitchen, remembering the day I'd went into labor. I was scared but at least everything's okay now.

I cradled Isaac in my arms and walked into his room as Calum followed behind me with luggage. I walked in instantly gasping at the decor.

The room had changed so much from when I'd last seen it. The wall was now painted a baby blue. And there was letters that spelled out his name in white, mantled above his crib.

His crib now had bedding in it with blue and red guitars all over it. I almost started to cry as I looked around the room.

"Baby you alright?" I felt Calum's hand on my shoulder as I snapped back into reality.

"Yeah Calum it's perfect." I laid Isaac down in his new crib and covered him up with a quilted blanket that looked handmade.

I watched him for a bit watching his tiny chest rise up and down as he slept.

Maybe everything will be okay.

I thought.
