[CLOSED] honestly...

Dallas smiled, stroking his hair. "You'd be a great daddy." She wished so bad he hadn't died, that he could have a baby of his own. She kissed him gently, watching a nurse pick up a small baby wrapped up in a blue blanket. She carried it out and Dallas looked at her.

"Can I hold it?" She asked, and the nurse nodded, laying the baby in her arms. Dallas smiled down at it, stroking it's cheek gently. "Hi, little buddy." She said, rocking him gently. She smiled over at Caine, pushing the baby's cap back. "Wow, you got a bunch of hair, huh?"

"We've been waiting for you two to come get him." The nurse said, and Dallas looked up at her, her brows drawn together.

"What do you mean?"

"Well, you're his parents, aren't you? Car accident and you went into labor? She doesn't remember?" The nurse looked down at Caine, running her hands down her legs.

A smile crossed his lips, and he looked over at the little baby in Dallas's arms. The baby had a full head of hair and he cutest little eyes. Caine watched as the baby stretched his litle arm out. Caine stretched a finger, tucking it between he baby's closing hand. "He's adorable." He whispered, but looked up with a confused expression as the nurses talked.

Caine wasn't sure what the nurse was talking about. He glanced down at Dallas. "Um.." He stood, letting the baby's hand fall back down into the blanket. He grabbed onto the handle of the wheel chair, having to have something help stand him up. He was taken back a little. A car wreck, and they thought this was Dallas's baby? Caine's fingers rubbed through his hair. "I.. uh.. Dallas?" He looked to Dallas for help, unable to find the words to explain to the nurse, she was mistaken.

Dallas looked up, but the nurse had walked back to her desk. She was going through a bunch of folders, chewing on her lip. Dallas looked up at Caine, then back down at the little baby. "He's a beautiful little baby."

The nurse came back out, tapping a folder on her leg. "Okay, I was wrong. That baby is laying over there, his mom is in recovery. But I don't have anything on this baby.." She looked down at the folder for the other baby, then back up at Caine. "I won't say anything if you guys really want him. Because he's just going to go into foster care. He's like.. a ghost or something. He has no paperwork, no band on his arm, nothing. But he's here." She shrugged, obviously confused.

Dallas looked down at the baby again, then up at Caine. "You can't let them take him.. Christy said foster care is terrible.."

[caine johnson]

Caine nervously watched the nurse, looking back and forth between Dallas and the nurse. "He really is." He looked down into the babies eyes. But jutted up as the nurse came back over, explaining a story. "Foster care..?" He bit the inside of his check, kneeling down beside the baby.

Caine looked up at Dallas, before wrapping his arms around the baby and gently pulling it away from Dallas. He craddled the baby, the biggest smile crossed his face. The baby's hand reached up for a few seconds before the baby quietly fell asleep. "So he's ours?" Caine realized he said our insead of his even though Dallas had said he should take him. "Er.. Yes, I'll take care of him. I don't want him to go to foster care." Caine looked down at the baby's boy face again. Oh god, What should his name be?

[dallas emery atkins]

The nurse smiled, walking back in before coming back out. She handed him a diaper bag, the diaper bag they gave to all the new parents. "If you guys are gonna have to be here awhile, you can just come ask me if you need diapers or anything." She said with a smile.

Dallas looked up at him with the baby and smiled brightly. She was so happy he could have his own baby. "This means you have to stay with me now. No more wandering around, not with a baby. You got that, daddy?" She reached up, stroking the baby's hair gently. It was almost like the baby was left there for them, like someone knew they couldn't have a baby of their own. And that they both wanted one so badly.

[caine johnson]

Caine threw the diaper bag over his shoulder smoothly, before holding the baby back in both of his arms. His eyes stayed on the babies, even as the nurse began to talk. "Thank you. Thank you so much." He smiled and looked over at Dallas. He watched as the nurse walked away, and began to monuver Dallas's wheel chair around. "Oh wait, nurse." But the nurse was already back out with some formula. "Thanks."

The nurse left and Caine went back to the wheel chair, it was so hard to move. "Well, I'll be daddy as long as you'll be mommy." He smiled and handed the baby down to Dallas, figuring it would be much easier to push this way. "Where to now? No wait, what should his name be?" Caine was so energetic, smitten by Dallas and the baby she held in her hands.

[dallas emery atkins]

"I'll be mommy." She said with a smile, stroking it's cheek. She held it close, then kissed it's forehead. "You're gonna be as handsome as your daddy, huh?" She asked the sleeping baby with a smile, pulling it's blanket closer around it.

"What about Zack?" She asked, looking up at Caine. She smiled, reaching up to stroke his cheek. "Or he could be Junior." She hoped Caine would actually stay now, so she could know both he and the baby were safe. "Whatever you name him, it has to sound good with your last name. Otherwise his name will be all funny." She said, looking back down at the baby. She was amazed at how still and quiet he was, never making a sound. She ran her finger across his hand, looking down at him.

[caine johnson]

Caine pushed the wheel chair lazily down the hall. "Hmm.. Zach Johnson?" Caine Junior? He hummed a sigh, trying to sort through names in his head. His last name was so hard to match with.. "Cody?.." He began to name out random names, hoping Dallas would pick one she loved. "Beau Johnson?" He added the last name every once and awhile to see if it had a ring to it. "My last name is so hard to match with.. What names do you like?" Caine stroked the back of Dallas's hair as the turned the corner and started past the cafeteria.

"Are you hungry? Or do you wanna go back to the room?" He asked, stopping near a water fountain to grab a drink. Caine turned around, looking at Dallas holding the little baby. "You look beautiful." His lips spoke without his mind really knowing. The color of pink flashing over his cheeks as he walked back over to Dallas, gripping the handle again and waiting for her answer.

[dallas emery atkins]

Dallas listening to him name off names, but none of them really seemed to fit the baby. Or his last name. But when he named off Beau, something clicked. She watched the little baby yawn, smiling down at it. She ran her fingers over it's little cheek, thinking about how perfect it was when Caine called her beautiful. She smiled, looking up at him.

"I'm not hungry." She watched him kneel down next to her, then ran a hand through his hair before kissing him gently. "Looks like daddy's gonna have to go get baby things and set up the extra room, huh?" It was hard to believe they shared a kid now, and they hadn't even said they loved each other, they weren't even together.

"I think Beau fits him. He looks like a Beau." She said, holding the baby out. He cried and Dallas looked over at Caine before hugging him close. "He's so quiet.." She said with tears in her eyes, amazed at the infant.

[caine johnson]

Her lips were sweet and soft, almost making Caine crumble under the feelings he had. He looked down at the baby smiling. "Beau it is then." He gently brushed the baby's arm before standing and pushing the wheel chair down the hall. "I guess I do.. I don't have a place yet though.." He spoke quietly, trying not to wake the quiet infant. It was strange how the baby had came into his life, and how he was now sharing parenthood with Dallas when they had only just meet. It seemed to fit though, Caine only wondered if it would stay like this.

He pushed the wheelchair into her hospital room and over to her bed. Taking the baby from Dallas, he let her crawl up into the bed. His arms rocked back and forth, putting Beau back to sleep. "This is so strange." Caine smirked, looking over at Dallas taking a seat on the edge of her bed. "I don't even know what to do." He looked down at the baby, trying to think of what he should do first.
