A/N: New chapter! Please let me know what you think! Thank you!
"Hey, Mom." Daniel said as he walked into the room that Dani was resting in after giving birth to her and John's son.
"Hey Daniel." Dani said as she looked at him.
"How do you feel?" Daniel asked.
"Well I am sore, but Dr. Lam says that is to be expected after pushing out a six pound baby." Dani said with a little laugh.
"So what is his name going to be?" Daniel asked.
"I didn't really think about it, but I think I want to name him something good. But I think I need to talk to John about it. He really stepped up and was there for me wasn't he?" Dani asked looking at Daniel.
"He was. He's beautiful." Daniel said looking at the baby as he slept in a bassinet next to his mother's bedside.
"He's already got John's hair, but my eyes. At least I like to think so." Dani said as she yawned.
"I'll let you get some sleep. I'll see you later, okay?" Daniel asked her.
"Sounds good to me and if you could find my husband please let him know I want to talk." Dani said as she started to fall asleep again.

"Hey, what are you doing?" John asked noticing Dani getting out of the bed.
"Getting up?" Dani asked with a laugh as she watched him walk in.
"How are you feeling? How is he?" John asked watching her walk to the bathroom.
"The doctor said I would be sore for a few days and our son is fine." Dani said as she came back out of the bathroom a few minutes later.
"We can't keep calling him he. He needs a name." John said looking down at his son who was sound asleep.
"I agree." Dani said.
"What about John junior?" John asked.
"How about not. I like Dean." Dani said.
"Dean Sheppard? I like it." John said as he picked up his son and sat in the chair next to Dani's bed as she lay back down on the bed.
"Me, too." Dani told him as she looked at father and son.
"I am sorry, Dani. For everything. I thought I could give him up, if I just didn't get attached." John said glancing up at his wife.
"But when you look at him and see what we created in a reckless way to stop each other from leaving, you can't help but see how amazing it feels. You can't not get attached to him. He's our son, John." Dani said near tears.
"So when does Dean and mommy get out of here?" John asked her.
"In an hour." Sam said after she took a picture of the three of them.
"Really?" Dani asked.
"Yeah." Sam said with a smile before leaving them alone again.

"Hey, where is Dean?" John asked his wife three months later. He was back on Atlantis with his team and she was on Earth.
"He's sleeping and I do not plan to wake him up. Plus Uncle T is coming over to see him today. And he loves it when Dean is awake." Dani said.
"I miss you." John said.
"I know. I miss you too." Dani told him.
"Ronon wants to see Dean again. As does the rest of our friends. Carson said you sent him pictures. How come you don't send them to me?" John asked looking into the eyes of his wife on the screen.
"I do. Check your email. Or ask Carson to share the pictures." Dani said with a laugh.
"I get it, so any new job offers come up?" John asked.
"No, well none that I would take." Dani said.
"What do you mean?" John questioned her.
"I got offered a position in Iraq again. But I am the only care for Dean at the moment and they said it was optional so I turned it down. I plan to stay alive to watch our son grow up." Dani said as the door bell rang.
"That will be Jack and T. Maybe even Sam and Daniel. I love you John." Dani said.
"I love you, too Dani Sheppard. Give Dean a kiss for me." John said with a sigh.

"Dani, are you sure about this?" Daniel asked her as he carried some of the baby stuff to the gate room where members of the SGC would go through the gate and come back on the next trip back.
"Daniel, I have been gone from my husband long enough. He's been missing Dean grow up. Don't worry; I am sure you and General O'Neill as well as all of SG1 will come to visit." Dani told him.
"Well I am happy for you." Daniel told her.
"Thanks Daniel. I will be sure to send many pictures of Dean as often as I can and I will send videos. Just promise me to be safe. No more ascending, my heart can't take it when I get told that stuff." Dani said as the gate activated and she saw the stuff being moved through the gate.
"Well I know I will want to see my godson again, so I will stop by for a visit." General Jack O'Neill said walking into the gate room.
"I am sure." Dani said.
Everyone that was in Dani's life was in Dean's life. And that is the way she liked it. She had to say goodbye to her friends, who in turn said goodbye to her and her son, who they all loved to death.
"See you guys, on Atlantis." Dani said before walking up the ramp with Dean in her arms and turning to look at them one last time before stepping through the gate. It was just another trip for her, but it was Dean's very first trip.
"Lt. Colonel John Sheppard this is the doctor Beckett has hired. This is Lt. Colonel Dani Sheppard and her son Dean Sheppard." Elizabeth Weir said watching John's surprised face to see his wife who had kept it a secret from him.
"Hi, John. Don't worry, I won't hit you this time." Dani said with a grin.
