Sam’s POV 

I fell asleep in Tyler’s arms after I broke down. I felt emotionally exhausted and my body still hurt. I felt Tyler get out of the bed. I was awake but I didn’t feel like talking to anyone, so I just laid there with my eyes closed. I heard the door open and close. I instantly knew it was Kyle. He was wearing the cologne I had gotten him for his birthday. 

“Tyler, have you told Sammy?” Kyle says. I frown. What? 

Tyler sighs. “No, I haven’t. I want to but I’m afraid of what she’s going to say or do. Man, I’m in love with her and if I do tell her that I got close to her only to get money for Chase, she might never forgive me and I’ll lose her. I don’t want to lose her, Kyle! She’s the best thing that has ever happened to me, besides Chase. If I lose her…” Tyler’s voice starts cracking. “If I lose her, I won’t be able to live without her. I love her so much and she’s pregnant with my baby, Kyle. I won’t leave her or the baby. Both of them are mine. I’m going to fight for them if Sam doesn’t give me a chance.” His voice full of emotions.  

I open my eyes and see Tyler leaving the room. They must’ve thought that I was asleep and wouldn’t hear anything.  

Kyle turns and stands still when he sees that I’m awake. “How much of that did you hear?” 

I whisper, “Everything.” 

Kyle sighs and sits on the edge of my bed, right next to me. “Sammy, you probably hate him right now.  He just…he needed the money and I told him that if he helped me figure out what was wrong with you then I would give him money to pay for Chase’s treatment. When he met you, he started to reject the money. He said he would still help me, but in the end, he never did. He said that he couldn’t do that to you. That it was something you had to tell me. He backed out of the deal immediately. Please Sammy, don’t be mad at him. He really loves you. You heard everything he had to say. I saw tears coming out of his eyes, Samantha. He has only cried for Chase. Not even his dad.” 

I nod. After hearing that, I know I’m not mad at Tyler. He did what he had to do to try and save his son. “So where is Tyler going to get the money from? We both know he won’t accept it, so why don’t we give an anonymous donation to the hospital just for Chase?” 

Kyle smiles. “This is why we are related. We think alike. I already did that, Sam. Tyler is with Chase right now, I imagine.” 

“I’m glad you gave that donation, Kyle.”  

After a moment, realization hits me. “Did he say I was pregnant?” 

Kyle looks at me. “He did. I’m going to call the doctor and ask him to stop by.” 

Kyle leaves the room and I look down at my belly. I can’t believe I’m pregnant. I look lovingly at my belly and start rubbing it. I’m pregnant and it’s Tyler’s. I feel tears falling down my eyes. I have never been so happy in my entire life.  

The door opens and in comes Dr. Cowell, followed by Kyle. “How are you feeling, Samantha?” 

“I’m still sore. Is it true? Is it true that I’m pregnant?” 

Dr. Cowell nods. “Yes, it’s true.” 

I smile. “But wait…is the baby okay? I mean…I made cuts…all over my stomach…is…is the baby going to be okay?” At this point, I’m crying heavily. I don’t want my baby to be hurt, especially if I caused it. I wouldn’t be able to live with myself. 

“Don’t worry, Samantha. The baby is fine.” I sigh in relief. 

“Kyle, can you find Tyler?” I ask, Kyle nods and leaves the room with the doctor.  

My baby is okay. I keep rubbing my belly. It hurts a little because of the cuts, but I don’t care.  

“Hey.” Tyler says. 

“Hi.”  

“How are you feeling?” 

“I’m good. I heard everything, Ty. Your conversation with Kyle. I heard it all.” 

Tyler walks up to me. “Sam, I’m sorry. You need to know I love you. Please. I never told Kyle. Please you have to believe me. I love you, Sam. Please don’t be mad at me. Please, Samantha.” 

We are both crying. “Ty, it’s okay. Kyle talked to me. I forgive you, babe.” 

Tyler looks at me, wide-eyed. “You do?” He hugs me tight. 

“Ty, can’t…breathe.” 

Tyler lets me go. “I’m sorry. Is the baby okay?” He asks with a worried look on his face. 

“Yes, the baby is okay.” 

Tyler smiles and leans down and kisses my belly. “I’m going to take care of you both. We will have a family. I can’t wait to tell Chase he’s going to have a little brother or a little sister. Sam, Chase is going to live. He’s responding to the treatments. We are going to be okay. All of us, together. I love you so much, baby girl.” 

“I love you too, Tyler.”
