Olivia watched as Trevor slept for nearly four hours without waking. When he finally opened his eyes again, she was sitting beside him again.

"You stayed." He yawned, and Olivia nodded.

"I would never leave you alone. Your parents are with Tanner and Alex, but they will be back down once Tanner is home."

"He's going home?" Trevor asked, and Olivia nodded.

"Yeah, baby. He's doing good." Olivia smiled softly. She shifted forward and brushed an eyelash from his cheek before kissing his rough cheek gently.

"I need a... a..." Trevor groaned as he looked at his wife.

"You need a shave. Do you want me to do it?" Olivia asked, as she gently rubbed her husband's chest.

"Please," Trevor spoke.

Olivia gathered up items with the help of Nadia and prepared to give her husband a shave. She gently shaved his beard off with a steady hand and watched as Trevor looked at her. She could still see the love in his eyes, and she was thankful that that hadn't changed.

"How far along are you?" Trevor asked, and Olivia looked down at her stomach for a moment before smiling at her husband.

"Five months. I was going to find out the gender at my last appointment, but I didn't want to do it without you." Olivia spoke.

"What about Alex?"

"A little boy. She and Tanner are so excited about getting a son. I feel like you and I are getting another girl. I just pray that she's as loved as her cousin will be." Olivia spoke. 

"I wanna..." Trevor frowned because he couldn't pronounce certain words.

"You want to find out? I think we could do that." Olivia grinned.

"Good." He sighed. Olivia wiped the rest of the shaving cream from her husband's face, before leaning down and kissing his lips.

"Do you want to take a nap?" Olivia questioned quietly.

"I want to see... girls."

"Then I'll see if you can see them. They are talking more and toddling around with less falling now." Olivia smiled.

Olivia held Rosemarie's and Madison's hands as they walked towards Trevor's room. She would have carried them, but they were getting too heavy for her to carry both of them at once.

"Mama," Rosie whined as she looked up at her mother.

"We are here, Rosie. Just a few more steps." Olivia laughed softly. She opened the door and let the girls run in. They stopped by the door and looked at their father.

"Daddy?" Madison questioned, and Olivia smiled as she gently urged her forward.

"Yeah, that's your Daddy, sweet girls," Olivia spoke. She lifted the girls up one at a time and sat them on the bed. They sat beside their father and looked at him with confusion in their blue eyes.

"Hi, girls," Trevor spoke as he gave them his new slanted smile.

"Daddy, where you go?" Rosie spoke quietly.

"I was here. I'm back now."

"Home?" Madi questioned, and Olivia looked at her husband and saw a frown on his lips. 

"Not soon." He breathed. Olivia bit her lip as she listened to the pretty broken conversation.

"Trevor, do you want me to take them-"

"No. Stay. All three of you."

"Okay. We will stay. Girls, why don't you cuddle with your Daddy. I'm going to see if Nana and Papa are coming up here soon."

Olivia stood out in the hall as she let the twins, June, and Fred spend time with Trevor. She didn't know if everything would turn out good, or if Trevor would get strength back into the right side of his body, but she was praying that at least there would be no more fighting. That maybe the family would be good and could all work together to get Tanner and Trevor back to a place where they are as close to normal as possible.

"So, I got a call saying that your husband is awake," Elliot spoke, as he came to a stop beside Olivia. He gently touched her back as a nurse moved past him and into the room.

"He's awake but he has weakness in the right side of his body." Olivia breathed.

"So a stroke?" Elliot questioned.

"Pretty much." Olivia sighed. She turned to look at her friend.

"We can stay with the girls still. Kathy is enjoying being apart of the twins' lives."

"I want to go home. I want to be home with my husband and daughters. I miss sleeping in a bed instead of a hospital chair." Olivia spoke. She leaned into Elliot's sigh as tears welled in her eyes.

"He'll be going home soon. Hopefully, before that kid is born." Elliot spoke.

"Hopefully," Olivia whispered as she brushed tears from her cheeks. She turned and leaned close to Elliot. She pecked his cheek gently before smiling.

"Thanks for helping out, Elliot. It means a lot. But you don't have to stay. You should go home and be with your family. I'll probably take the kids home tonight and stay with them."

"Nah. I'll take them back to your place. You probably shouldn't leave your husband's side."

~+~

Over the next month, Olivia helped her husband learn to walk again. She helped her husband gain strength back in his right arm and how to move his fingers once again. Trevor did get angry when his body didn't do what he wanted it to do, but he got through it all with the help of his wife's strength and love for him.

"Use the cane and continue doing your exercises at home," Nadia spoke, as she pushed Trevor's wheelchair out of the elevator and to the front of the hospital where June was waiting.

"My cane might be too short." Trevor sighed, as he looked over at his wife. She was holding the cane, and she glanced at it before sighing.

"We can always get you another one," Olivia replied.

"Now, what did I just tell you, Trevor?"

"Nadia, I've got it. My speech has come back and the only thing I'm lacking on is the stupid right half of my body."

"What did I tell you?" Nadia spoke, as she pushed him down the ramp and Olivia laughed beside him.

"I need to use my cane and do the stupid exercises at home."

"And why?" Nadia asked. Trevor turned and looked at his wife before smiling.

"Because I have 3 months before I have to hold a baby, and I need both arms to do that."
