The next morning Lucy came to stay with Noah, so Raf could go back to the hospital. On the way, Raf called Trevor, to see if he could draw up the adoption forms and drop them by the hospital. Walking down the hall he stopped at Liv's door when a text came looking at it.
Hey, Rafael, I'm on my way to the hospital with the papers. What room? -Trevor
Raf texted him Liv's room number. He knocked softly so he wouldn't wake her if she was asleep. When no reply came, he opened the door. Liv was asleep, so he walked over to the chair and sat down. Raf sat there for a while checking and replying to emails for work. Then he heard sounds coming from the bed, he looked up and smiled when he saw Liv's brown eyes meet his green ones.
"Hey, Rafi." Liv whispered.
"Hey, how you feeling?" Raf asked taking her hand in his and kissing it.
"Better, how was Noah?" Liv asked.
"He was upset, he couldn't come, but I told him you'd be home soon, and I told him about our plan for me adopting him." Raf said.
"What did he think?" Liv asked.
"He was excited, he told me before I left to give you this."
Raf kissed her on the cheek.
"And this is from me."
He kissed her on the lips. Liv kissed him back, Raf and leaned back. He sat on the edge of the bed.
"Trevor should be in a little while, with the paperwork."
"Great." Liv said excitedly.
A few minutes later Trevor arrived, walking in with a smile on his face.
"Hey Rafael, Liv." Trevor arrived.
"Hey, Trevor." They both answered.
"So, here is the paperwork for Noah's adoption for Rafael." Trevor said handing it to Liv.
Liv looked at the papers, then handed them to Raf, so he could sign them. Raf signed them, handed it back to Liv, so she could sign to show she approved of Raf's adoption of Noah, making it legal. She handed them back to Trevor.
"Okay, I'll get these to Judge Linden, to get these signed off."
"Thanks, Trevor." Liv said.
"Thanks, Trevor." Raf shook his hand.
"You're welcome." Trevor said and left.
Raf and Liv looked at each other and smiled. The doctor came in and looked at them sensing he was interrupting something.
"Excuse me, Olivia, Rafael?"
Liv and Raf looked at the doctor.
"Liv, your shoulder is healing nicely, a couple of weeks of rehab and you should be back at work."
Liv and Raf looked at each other, then back to the doctor.
"How long till she can go home?" Raf said.
"Tomorrow morning." The doctor smiled.
Raf smirked.
"Thank you, doctor."
"Thanks, doctor." Liv said smiling.
"Your welcome." The doctor said and left.
It was getting late, Raf checked his phone it was 7.
"Liv, you want me to stay or go home and come back in the morning?" Raf asked moving from the chair to the edge of the bed.
"Go home, come back in the morning. Bring Noah too, I want to see my boy."
"Okay, I'll be back with Noah around 8."
Liv nodded, Raf leaned in and kissed her. Raf left and went home. He walked into the apartment, Noah looked up from his toys seeing him, coming over toward him with his stuffed dog.
"Mami?" Noah asked hopefully.
"Coming home tomorrow hijo. You and I are going in the morning to pick up her up." Raf said.
"Yay!" Noah jumped and Raf caught him.
After Lucy left, Raf fixed himself something to eat, Noah had already had dinner. He gave Noah a bath. Settling in his and Liv's bed, Raf read Noah a story. After finishing the story and setting the book on the nightstand, he saw Noah looking over to Liv's side. Raf was on his side and Noah was in the middle.
Raf smiled.
"Mami will be home tomorrow hijo, I promise."
Noah looked at him.
"I know, I just miss her."
"I know you do, I miss her and I just saw her. You have always been around her even when she's working." Raf said.
"Yes, but when she's working, you get to see her a little more than I do, cause you two work together. Then you both get to come home and see me!" Noah said.
Raf smiled.
"Yes, we do. We both love you Noah always remember that."
"I love both of you too." Noah said sleepily.
"Night hijo."
"Night Papi."
They both fell asleep.
