Okay here's the deal. I don't own General Hospital. If I did Dominique would not have died. Lol. I don't own Edward and I don't own Alan nor do I own Lila. The Tracy I'm refering to is not Tracy Alan's younger sister, but Lila and Edward's first child who was stillborn. We will assume that the younger Tracy was named after the older Tracy
Edward Qaurtermain walked into the nursery where his 4 day old son was sleeping. He picked him up and sat down on the rocking chair.
"Hey little guy," he whispered careful not to wake him up, "you're so little. You know I'm new at this. I've never been a daddy before… well not really.
"Your sister, Tracy her name was, was born into heaven. She died while she was inside mommy. When mommy told me she was having you I was so happy. I was also really scared. I didn't want for you to be born like Tracy was.
"When we found out that mommy was going to have a boy that made me feel relived. It was like a sign from GOD saying that you were going to be okay… not like your sister. Before we knew you were a boy we decided we would name you Tracy if you were a girl. Well anyway to make a long story short you were born 4 days ago and that was the happiest day of my life. I had a little baby boy and I was so happy about it.
"Now I know you can't understand me and since you're sleeping you probably can't hear me but I want you to know something. I may not be the best father in the world. I might make mistake. Chances are I probably will lose my temper and sometimes I may get mad, though I will always regret it when I do. There is one thing that you can always be sure of however.
"No matter what you do, no matter what I do… I will always ALWAYS love you. I don't care if you grow up to be the president or a bum on the street, though I hope you don't end up being a bum on the street. You will always be my little baby. I love you Alan"
Then he kissed his nose.
The baby woke up and started to cry. He must have had a bad dream, Edward thought to himself. Edward started rocking him and rubbing his back. As he rocked him he sang to him.
Baby mine don't you cry
Baby mine dry your eyes
Rest your head next to my heart
Never to part
Baby of mine
From your head down to your toes
You're not much goodness knows
But you're so precious to me
Sweet as can be
Baby of mine
Edward looked up and saw Lila watching them, tears in her eyes.
"Hi," she said
"Lila," he told her, "you did great work"
"You will be a wonderful father," she told him, "you already are"
Edward gently handed the baby to Lila.
"Careful with him," he said, "support his head"
Lila smiled and laughed
"Thank you," she told him
"For what," he asked
"For being you Edward," she told him, "for being you"
