This is just a little one shot i thought up on a really really slow day at work ... anyway it just a little of Henry's POV before he returns to New York in the season finale. as usuall a BIG shout out to my friends at I-C!!Hope you enjoy!!
Henry lay in his bed looking up at the ceiling. He didn't get much sleep now a days between his heartache for Betty and getting used to caring for a newborn. He had his highs and lows missing Betty every single minute of each day. As he stirred in his bed he missed the warmth of Betty next to him. He was just drifting off to sleep when he heard lil Nate begin to cry in the bassinet beside him … it was his night to be with Nate. He turned over and stepped out of his bed and held his son .
"Ssssshhhh sssshhh … its ok" Henry whispered to his son as he went to the kitchen to warm him up a bottle … as he sat there rocking his son he caught his eye on a picture of Betty and him on the table/ he reached one hand over and grabbed the picture. He smiled as he looked down at it. He turned it to show Nate who leaned toward the picture. Henry placed him back into his arms where he was as he jumped up to grab the bottle. As he feed his son he kept taking glances at the photo. As nate finished the bottle henry rubbed and patted his back as he walked back into the bed room taking the picture with him. As he returned to the side of his bed he grabbed the box off his nightstand, as he opened it he looked at the beautiful ring he had bought for Betty, his plan was to propose to her when she came out to Tucson for the first time to visit him. He took a deep breath and he shut the box … he picked up the picture ounce more and showed it to Nate ounce more.
" What do think huh …. Should I go get her?" Nate let out a little burp … Henry giggled at his son .
" I'll take that as a yes." he giggled a little more at his son till finally both of them drifted off.
