Samantha

Eventually things settled down and I was resting as per doctors orders and Daryl was recovering from his injuries. We spoke to Ronald junior and told him if he wants to he could live with us, he was so excited to have a mom and dad. We explained that we will make room for him as we currently don't have the room, we'll put the twins in the same room, but we will make him feel at home with us. We also asked if he still wanted to be called Ronald as we thought it might have bad memories attached to it, he said he didn't remember that that was his name so Daryl and I will think of a new name for the newest member of our family. Later that day I was resting when I heard a voice I love.

"Do you think babe that they'll give us a group discount if we keep coming here?"

"That's not funny Daryl. How're you feeling? Do you think you'll go home." I watch him walk over sit on the bed he leans in and kisses me.

"Had worse babe, just a chipped cheekbone. Yeah I'll head home soon, I miss our girls. More like how are you feeling honey? You look better. So did you think of a name for our new child?"

"Yeah I do what about Quinn? I think it's a beautiful name."

"Quinn Dixon huh? I like that name. You know babe you pick out the most beautiful names for our children, I bet if I did they'd be some stupid southern hick name like Bobby Lynn or something like that, I mean look at my name and Merle's but I love our kid's names."

"I hope he likes his name."

"Daryl?" We looked behind us and the newest member of our family was standing there in the doorway.

"Hello son. Why aren't you resting?"

"Not used to being on a bed. My daddy would make me sleep on the floor."

"Well, why don't you come here and sit on the bed with us." He climbs onto the bed beside me. "Well, Samantha and I were talking about you. We were thinking if you wanted to change your name? We were thinking of Quinn. Do you like the name Quinn?"

"Quinn? Yeah I don't want to be named like that man."

"And you don't have to darling. So when I'm out of here I'll be helping you with school. I help Lydia, I can help you too."

"Will you be my mommy?"

"Yeah I'll be your mommy if you want me to be, and Daryl will be your daddy or an uncle whatever you want him to be."

"Will he hit me like my daddy did?"

"Son, I'll never touch you like that I promise. My daddy did the same thing as yours and I promise you."

"Your daddy hurt you too? So, I can call you mommy and daddy?"

"Yes he did. Yes if you want to." What I didn't expect was that he launched his arms around my neck. "Hey, careful honey mom's still sore."

"Sorry mommy."

"It's okay, Quinn."

"Well son, did you want to come home with me and see your new home?" I was surprised when Quinn kissed me, then Daryl kissed me goodbye and that he might come back later tonight. "Beautiful you rest because you're now the mom to five."

Two days later

I'm finally being let out of the hospital, it felt like forever, but was only really a few days, Daryl has been bringing the girls in to see me but it hurts to hold them, Dante said it will for a while. I haven't been able to feed them properly as I'm still pumping and Daryl is doing the feeding. I can't believe I'm now the mom to four kids, five if I include Lydia.
