The baby started crying after five minutes. Jen took him back in her arms and said that she would comeback after she fed him and he took a nap. As she was being wheeled out of the room, I turned and asked her if she had named the baby yet.

"Luke said he had the perfect name for him. He wouldn't tell me so we have to wait for him. But trust me, give it another hour and your waiting will be over."

I stared in disbelief at what she had said. How could she be so confident in herself? 'There never seemed to be any doubt in anything she said when it came to Luke's waking up.' After two hours of silence, I began to feel the need to talk to Ryan, to try and gain some clarity.

"Do you think he'll wake up Ryan?"

"Of course, I do. Jen seems to think that she can wake him up. I believe she can. I have to believe she can. If not for me than for that baby."

I leaned closer to him and wrapped my arms around his waist. I nuzzled into the nape of his neck and started crying. I held on tighter because I felt that if I didn't then I might lose him too. I continued to nuzzle his neck and cry.

"Your not gonna lose me Troy. I am not going anywhere. And you're not going to lose Luke either. You just have to trust me." He comforted.

I loosened my grip and slide down into the chair next to Luke. I grabbed his hand while Ryan wrapped his arms around my chest. I cried more today than I have probably cried in my entire life. Here I was pouring out tears like the Hoover dam and my husband was being my superhero.

"How can you be so sure?" I whimpered.

"Huh?"

"How can you be so sure that I won't lose you? Every time I turn around another person I love is lying in a hospital bed unconscious. I can't keep doing this Ryan, I just can't. Each time because of me."

"You can't help it if you are a sex god." He chuckled. He got me to laugh again. I love my husband; he always knew what to do to make me feel better. I turned around and kissed him softly and passionately. I grabbed the back of his neck and drew him closer to me.

"Ahem" Jeff cleared his throat from the doorway.

"Hi Jeff." Ryan said.

"Isn't there a rule against having hot sex in a hospital?"

"See Troy, he tells us again that we're hot. I'm thinking that this guy wants us."

Jeff sat there and pondered the notion of seeing two hot guys naked right now. A grin appeared on his face and grew rapidly.

"Jeff, stop picturing my husband naked. That is my job."

Jeff snapped out of his thoughts and began blushing bright red. His hand reached and began fidgeting with his ring.

"Sorry. No more sex."

"What about sex?" Jen said appearing behind him with a baby in her arms.

"Nothing…just nothing."

"Jeff sex is sex and trust me it is frickin awesome." She said as she covered the newborn's ears. "Wait until you and Luke start having some. He is good in bed….trust me." She whispered the last part, at least she tried to.

"Okay, Picturing my son have sex is not something fathers like to do." I said cringing.

"Yeah, thinking about my boyfriend having sex with someone who is not me. Not nice Jen." Jeff countered.

Jen and Ryan sat laughing while Jeff and I sat semi disgusted.

"So I have a plan to wake Luke up. He once told me that he had a dream where he couldn't wake up. It was after the baby was born he said probably around six months later. He had fallen asleep on the couch and for some reason would not under any circumstance wake up. That was until the baby crawled onto his stomach. Then like magic he awoke. So I thought that it was worth a shot. If it doesn't work I still want a picture of the baby with his dad."

"I am up to try anything Jen. Troy and I have spoken to the doctors and they can't seem to find any real reason why his body slipped into a coma. The trauma was bad but the injuries weren't serious enough to cause that." Ryan explained.

"Okay was there anything he told you about the dream that would seem relevant to getting him up." Jeff inquired.

"There was one thing. But it involves a very nude gentleman."

"Oh no, no I won't do it."

"Jeff come on. Luke said that you two were both naked. We will leave and you can get undressed, slip in next to him. Then we will come back in and I can put the baby on Luke. Please we have to give this a chance for Luke and the baby. Puh-lease."

"Fine, but only cause I am horny and if Luke doesn't wake up, I don't get any."

"Thinking with his privates…a true man. Right Troy?" Ryan elbowed me. Now it was my turn to blush.

"Get out, so I can get naked." Jeff ordered. We all filed out and a nearby doctor chastised Jen for not being in bed. We ignored him and waited for Jeff to say it was okay. After about 30 seconds the signal came. We re-entered the room and Jeff was once again blushing.

"Under normal circumstances I would chastise both of you if I saw this."

"Ryan, just say yell…who says chastise."

"I do" Jeff stated.

"Whatever. New ground rules. There will be no sex between you and my son until he is healed. There will be no sex in my house. There will be no sex until Luke in 50."

"First of Troy, those rules mean that we can't have sex in our own house and the whole no sex until Luke is 50, well too late. Let's just stick with the rule."

"Thanks Ryan." Jeff said.

"Just remember its Mr. B in class."

"Okay."

"Can we get this show on the road?" Jen piped up and asked.

"Sure."

"Jeff, pull off Luke's hospital gown." She waited until this task was done and proceeded to pull back the sheet to reveal Luke's chest. He hand grazed the burnt flesh and cringed when she did. Carefully she placed the baby on his father's chest and we waited.

I watched as Jeff spoke to Luke. I was waiting patiently for anything.

"Come on baby wake up. Meet your son."

The baby began crying and that was when it happened.

"Hey Corey buddy….what's wrong?" Luke said lethargically. He scooped Corey up and placed him closer to his heart. Luke closed his eyes and rubbed Corey's back until he fell asleep.

"Luke, I need you to stay awake for me." Jeff insisted.

"Baby, everything is fine. Just go back to sleep." Luke told Jeff before he kissed him.

"Luke, you're in the hospital." I cried.

His eyes shot open as he took in his surroundings. He gazed at everyone's face until he fell upon mine. We locked eyes for what seemed like ten minutes but may have only been a few seconds.

"Dad?"

"Yeah, Luke."

"I'm sorry dad. I didn't mean for it to happen." He cried, the tears falling from his eyes were quickly wiped away by Jeff.

"It's okay Luke. You are okay and that is all that matters."

"Jeff, I never meant to cause you so much pain and grief."

"Lucas, I will love you always and forever. You are my one and only."

"I love you." Luke managed to squeak out. I grabbed Ryan's hand and managed to sneak out of the room. I knew that the kids had a lot of things to discuss. We left a note on the door and headed home. Now that Luke was safe we could sleep.

Luke POV

If dad thought he was slick he's not. I saw him sneak out. I am kind of glad he did because I really needed to figure out how this whole thing was going to work between Jen and Jeff and myself.

"So can we all agree on no more bad news?" I asked cheerfully.

"Definitely." Jeff agreed.

"Actually, no. I have some papers for you Luke. I get to leave the hospital in a day or two and we have to talk."

"Luke hand me my boxers and my shorts so I can get dressed and leave you two alone."

"No, Jeff you need to hear this too. My parents found out about me being pregnant. They told me that I had to give the baby up for adoption. So I lied and told them I did. They think Miami is a bad influence on me. They are making move in with my aunt and uncle in Utah."

"Jen, I am so sorry. What are we going to do about Corey?"

"These papers here are giving full custody to you and in 6 months Jeff can apply to adopt him."

"Jen, I don't want to do this to you. You're his mother whether your parents like it or not." I argued.

"Lucas, my aunt and uncle will never allow me to bring him to Utah. You are our son's only hope. Please raise him. Your dads will help. I just can't." She cried.

"Will we ever see you again, Jen?" Jeff asked.

"No. But tell him that he had a wonderful mom. I gotta go."

And with that she wheeled herself out of the room. I looked into my son's eyes and found comfort in knowing that he was mine. I helped bring life into this world. I looked at Jeff and I felt the need to ask him a very important question.

"Are you ready to be a dad Jeff?" I asked.

"As long as you agree to marry me I will be." He countered.

"Jeff, I don't want you to marry me just because of Corey…" I couldn't finish because he put his finger to my lips.

"I am marrying you because I love you. When you went missing I tried everything in my power to try and get you back home. When I am not next you I think about being with you. When I am with you, I want to hold you and kiss you. When I am alone at night I dream of you. When we lie peacefully together at night, I know it is because you made love to me. You are it for me Lucas. I love you."

"I love you too, Mr. Swallows. Which I have to ask…do you?"

"What…You'll have to wait and see…"

The END..for now, I think….maybe. A sequel could happen, is more than likely, okay will definitely happen. If you want a sequel let me know. If there is anything you would like to see in a sequel please tell me.
