It was a boy. Just like I knew it would be and obviously because somebody out there knew that I could never handle a daughter. Could you even imagine that? If I had a daughter she better be a lesbian because I'd kill any guy that came anywhere near her. But I didn't even have to worry about it because I was gonna have a boy.
"Everybody's okay." Faith said to her sister. "We were just waitin' on you to wake up. "Fred, Cordy, Lily and Connor got a little banged up but they're awake now." She said to her. Huh. I hadn't even gone to check on Fred and I wanted to kick myself for it a little while. Fred was the one chick around here who didn't drive me up a fucking wall on a regular basis. I hadn't really thought of anyone at all since I got to the hospital with Grace so now I was glad Faith was here, for more than one reason. "Serenity is good. Not a scratch on her really. She's around here somewhere. I'm sure she'll be in."
I leaned back against the window just listening to the heartbeat of my son. There was so many things I wanted to teach him. Of course, I'd have to make up something to tell Lydecker. That maybe Grace had been seeing some other guy while I was gone and this was his kid. Manticore was bound to fight out about him and want him for their own but I wasn't gonna let them have him.
"Alright. Well, I'm gonna go and check back in on Lily and let Harry and Tyler know that you're awake. I'm sure they'll wanna see you." Faith said to Grace as she stood up from where she was sitting before squeezing Grace's hand for a second. "I'll be back." Faith looked back up at me with a look that didn't have an ounce of apology in it but I had the feeling she was rooting for us anyways. Eh. At least someone was happy to see me.
She left the room and that left me alone with Grace. "Do you need anything?" I asked her. "Some water or somethin' to eat?" I wasn't sure what else to say to her and I thought that maybe she would just tell me to get out again. I wasn't sure what to expect. Suddenly I was pissed at Faith for leaving me alone in here with her.
