                                                                                                   Knock Knock Knock

Peyton: Come in.

                                 The door opens and they walk in

Harley: Hey, how are you feeling?

Peyton: Better......shocked.....calm

Bentley: That's understandable. Did they say when you can leave?

Peyton: Yea, the nurse said a few days.

Harley: You're keeping the baby aren't you?

Peyton: Yea....I think so.

                             Harley walks over and throws her arms around Peyton, hugging her tight.

Harley: You are going to be an amazing mom.

Peyton: You really think so?

Harley: I know so.

                            Peyton smiles as a few tears escape.

Bentley: We all got your back Peyton.

Acheron (Ash): Like I said, I'll be here for as long as you let me.

                             Harley walks over and pulls Ash into a hug and whispers in his ear.

Harley: I can tell you are one of the good ones. Don't be a Tristan.....also if you hurt her, I'll hurt you.

                             Harley pulls back and smiles. Ash smiles back, and grabs Peyton's hand again.

Harley: We are going to head home. It's time for Aunt Harley to go baby shopping!

                             Bentley grins at Harley, and laces his fingers with hers.

Bentley: Baby shopping.....I like the sound of that

                            He smacks Harley's ass and pulls her toward the door to leave.

Peyton:  DON'T GO OVERBOARD HARLEY!!!

                            Harley laughs from the hallway

Harley: NO PROMISES!!

                            Peyton chuckles and lays back in the hospital bed. Resting her free hand on her tummy, she looks over at Ash.

Peyton: The baby is hungry....

                              Ash chuckles and stands up, kissing her forehead.

Acheron (Ash): Alright, I'll be back. I'll see what the doctor says you can have.

Peyton: Thanks.


                                                                                                               *Joey*

                                  Joey's laying in his hospital bed, he has become quite close with Nurse Amanda....she will do. As he is laying there watching TV, he hears a familiar voice in the hallway. Sitting up straight he watches through the open door and listens...

Harley: I'm glad Peyton can come home in a few days. She really scared me.

Bentley: I know she did baby. Everything will be okay.

Harley: What do you think Tristan will do?

Bentley: No idea. But it isn't our place to tell him, nor our place to say whether she lets him in the baby's life or not.

Harley: True...well I want to go baby shopping! Then we can come back in the morning and show Peyton what we got.

                             Harley squeals and claps. Joey sees her walk right by his door. He grins. Back in the morning huh....

Joey: You're mine.

                                                            Several hours later

Nurse Amanda: Hi there. How are you feeling?

Joey: Better now that you are here.

                                 He gives his best smiles as she walks over to check his vitals.

Nurse Amanda: They didn't tell us why you have to be cuffed....I'm curious.

joey: Oh. Well it's unfortunate really. They seems to take the females side in everything.

Nurse Amanda: What do you mean?

Joey: My ex girlfriend was verbally abusive towards me. I finally had enough and as I was going to leave her, she beat me with a bat. She then hit herself and called the police, telling them that I hit her, and that she hit me back in self defense.

Nurse Amanda: Oh my god! What a liar!

Joey: I know...But what can I do? It's my word against hers...

                                   Joey reaches over and grabs her hand, and brings it to his lips.

Nurse Amanda: I can't believe they are doing this to an innocent man!

                                  Joey tears up and lets them overflow down his cheeks.

Joey: She is ruining my life, and they don't even care.

                                  Nurse Amanda wipes his tears.

Nurse Amanda: I care....

Joey: Really?

Nurse Amanda: Yes.

                                    Smiling, she pulls up a chair and they chat. Of course I have everything in common with her. God what a naive bitch. Fucking push out a few tears and bitches will believe anything.

Nurse Amanda: Don't tell anyone.

Joey: Tell anyone what?

Nurse Amanda: I'm going to help you...
