Luke walked into his house after a long day at work. All he wanted was to spend some time with his wife. They were halfway back to normal after the truth about Luke's whereabouts was revealed. Thalia had come home early from work that day and she had texted Luke not to worry she was just feeling a little sick.
"Thals!" Luke called when he walked up the stairs.
"I'm in here!" she called from their bathroom.
Luke walked in and smiled at his young wife, "What are you doing in here?"
Thalia grinned and threw her arms around him, "Luke I'm pregnant."
Luke twirled her around and smiled, "That's great!"
Luke was just happy that she had stayed with him. He had always wanted kids and this was going to be amazing. He kissed Thalia and she smiled into the kiss. That happened to be one of his favorite things she did.
Later that night he sat there and thought about his future child. What if it didn't like him? What if he was a terrible father? There were still those thoughts that lingered in his mind. What if his past came back to haunt him?
Thalia looked over at Luke and smiled, "Luke stop worrying so much, you still have awhile to prepare."
Luke smiled and wrapped his arms around her waist, "Hey you're the one who will be the perfect parent."
She looked at him and raised and eyebrow, "Are you kidding me? I have no tolerance for whining, I like my sleep, and I'm not patient nor do I have a level temper. You on the other hand do. I'm just as scared as you when it comes to this."
Luke smiled then frowned slightly, "But you don't have a past that involves a crazy Time Lord that wants to destroy humanity. I have that."
"Well then I guess we balance each other out." Thalia laughed.
Luke smiled, "I guess you're right."
On that note Luke ignored all of his parenting woes and watched as Thalia and he grew to know what they were doing. Finally on the night of August 25th, Luke stood in that hospital room and held his camcorder. At ten the night of August 26th, Declan James Castellan came into the world and he looked exactly like his father.
Thalia smiled and looked at Luke, "Do you want to hold your clone?"
Luke chuckled and waited as Thalia gently passed off the baby boy that was wrapped in a blue blanket.
"He does look a lot like me." Luke muttered.
Thalia smiled and watched Luke hold Declan. This was the one moment where it really sunk in. The moment where he knew that this was all real. That none of the past nine months had been a dream.
Little Declan was almost an exact copy of Luke. He had the light sandy hair, the polar blue eyes, and his elfish features. The only thing that resembled Thalia was he had her eye shape, big and almond shaped.
