Robin's been hiding the fact that she did not go to the sperm bank but that Patrick's actually the father of her child… their child. She hasn't told him for several reasons, and if he finds out, she feels he'll only feel obligated to be there for their child together. Patrick's been suspecting that Robin's carrying his child, especially since the day he found out that the condom broke. What happens when Patrick finally asks her if he is the father of her baby?
Author's Note: So, I have decided to make Ian nice in this story. I really like him but I just don't like his crazy side or the fact that he knows Claudia on General Hospital. Thank you so much, peachsouth for the dinner with our four people. Trust me, there will be more Brenda scenes later in the story. She won't be leaving for quite a while. I need some baby boy and baby girl suggestions. I already know what they will be having but it's just for the next chapter. Anyways, enjoy, and remember to leave some wonderful feedback.

It had been a couple of weeks since Robin had found out that Patrick had Brenda come to Port Charles with the help of Damian Spinelli or that he heard her admit that she did in fact still love him with a passion in her heart. Robin Scorpio had never expected for Patrick to even feel the need to bring her best friend all the way from London but he did. It had been the most generous thing he had done, except for when he gave her the baby blanket that used to be his.
He was still so determined that they were having a baby boy. He had told Robin, Noah, Elizabeth, Epiphany, Lainey, Kelly, and Brenda that he was determined that they would be having a bouncy, baby boy. All Robin could do was shake her head in disbelief.
"For all you know," Robin began, as she wrapped the pasta around her fork, and took a bite of it. "I could be pregnant with a baby girl or even twins for that matter."
Patrick started coughing when he took a bite of his chicken, and he looked around the Metro Court at other people talking. "Don't joke about things like that, Scorpio! I can only handle one child right now and it will be a boy. I just know it will be a boy. I just have this feeling in my stomach that we're going to have a baby boy. Is that so hard to believe?"
"I'm not joking, Patrick, but it is quite possible. I could be carrying twins," Robin giggled, as she looked at him with a shake of her head. "But we're probably just having one child."
"Thank God!" Patrick groaned, as he let a sigh of relief leave his lips. "I just found out about this child, and if we were having two at the same time, I don't know what I would do."
Robin laughed, as she looked at him, and then looked down at her watch. "Behave now, as Brenda and Sonny should be here pretty soon. The last thing we need is your head on a platter."
"Oh God! Robin, do you really have to talk like that?" Patrick groaned, as he pulled his coat on, covering up his neck. "I don't need to picture Sonny, Jason, or his henchmen cutting my head off from my body. Just do me a favor and don't say things like that."
"Awe Patrick, Sonny wouldn't do that," Brenda said with a grin on her face, as she approached the table with Sonny behind her. "Right?"
Sonny chuckled, as he nodded. "Nope, I wouldn't hurt you, especially since I know my little sister here would attack me for killing the father of her child."
"You're damn right I would," Robin said with a smirk, as she stood up to her feet, and hugged Sonny. "I think you should visit me more often."
"I will," Sonny said, as he watched Patrick stand up, and he shook his hand. "I think that congratulations are in order. Congratulations Dr. Drake."
"It's Patrick when I am not at work," Patrick said, as he looked at the older man in front of him. "And thank you, Sonny. I am really thankful for this gift Robin has given me. I think she's trying to scare me away or something by her being pregnant with twins."
"It would kill you," Brenda said with a grin, as the guys helped Brenda and Robin sit down, and then sit down next to them. "Am I right or am I wrong?"
"Who knows but I do know it would be the death of me with her cravings and her mood swings would definitely be out of this world," Patrick said with a shake of his head, as he eyed Robin with a raised eyebrow in her direction. "So, I think I am safe for now."
"You better hope," Sonny chuckled, as he noticed that they had ordered. "Let me guess. Robin couldn't be patient and wait for us?"
"Hey, when a pregnant woman is starting to digest food, she cannot help herself," Robin said with a proud smile on her face, taking a bite of her pasta. "And Patrick ordered too!"
"Hey, it would look weird if you ordered and I didn't, and did you see the way that waiter was looking at me?" Patrick reminded Robin, as he shook his head. "He was strange. I think he was gay."
"Just because he's good looking and he was nice, you think he was gay?" Robin laughed, as she raised an eyebrow. "I must tell you that he isn't gay. If that's the case, you must be gay too."
"No! I am not gay," Patrick said, as he watched Brenda and Sonny looking through their menus to see what they were going to order. "I swear… I hope our child does not have this side of you that I find annoying."
"Yeah, yeah, but you still wuv me," Robin giggled, as she looked at him, and she stuck her tongue out. "Don't you?"
"Wuv… what the hell are you even talking about, Robin? Who in their right forsaken minds even says things like that?" Patrick asked with a raised eyebrow.
"I guess pregnant women do," Brenda said with a smirk, as she looked at her best friend, and then looked at Patrick. "She's just practicing her baby talk when your daughter comes into the world, Patrick. You should definitely know that by now."
"How many times do I have to tell you we aren't having a girl? We are having a healthy, baby boy."
Robin laughed, as she knew that Brenda was only messing with Patrick, and she shook her head. As the 'gay' waiter took Brenda and Sonny's order, Robin was just so happy to have the father of her baby, her big brother, and her sister, as well as best friend here tonight. It had been such a long time since she had been out of town with people she genuinely cared about.
"He sure is the stubborn one. Nice going, Robin," Sonny joked, as he held Brenda's hand under the table, and flashing her a warm smile. "But it seems that I've hit the same category."
"Oh please, Sonny. We all know how stubborn Robin Scorpio can be," Carly said, as she approached the table, and then saw Brenda. "Please don't tell me you're here with this little slut, are---"
"That is enough!" Sonny snapped, as he looked at her. "I don't understand why you can't leave my business is alone. If you aren't here about Michael or Morgan, you need to leave this table."
"This is my hotel and restaurant. You cannot tell me what to---"
"This isn't your hotel!" Patrick said, shaking his head in shock. "This is Jax's hotel and you're lucky enough that he even let you run it when he's away on business. I would be terrified that you would burn it to the ground if I was the owner of this hotel."
"Patrick, how dare you?"
"What? I am just saying. After they let you out of Rose Lawn, Jax was just nice enough to let you work here," Brenda spat, as she shook her head in anger. "I don't even understand why you think you can run this hotel when you cannot even take care of yourself or even your own children. Do you remember when Jason and Robin had to take care of Michael when you couldn't?"
"Why you little---"
"I wouldn't even finish that sentence if I were you," Jax said, as he approached Carly. "Are you bothering our guests, Carly?"
"They aren't---"
"Carly, just get back to work. There's a problem with a guest in room on the second floor. Just check with Sam at the front desk. She'll give you the memo." When Carly walked away, Jax sighed, as he looked at Sonny, Brenda, Patrick, and Robin. "I am so sorry, you guys. I never thought she would act this way."
"It's fine. I'm just glad she's gone," Robin said with a smile, as she looked at Jax with a generous smile.
"And why is that?" Jax asked, knowing there was something going on.
"We're having a baby," Patrick said, as he wrapped his arm around Robin's shoulder.
"Oh wow," Jax said in awe, as he looked at the two. "Congratulations you two."
"Thank you. The last thing I need is to lose this baby. I have been wanting to have a baby for a very long time and I certainly don't need your wife to be getting in my face," Robin said, as she shook her head when Brenda and Sonny's food came to the table.
"Well, have a good night," Jax said softly, as he walked back into the lobby to go and talk to Carly.
"Sonny, keep the mother of your children away, please?" Patrick sighed, as he ran a hand over Robin's back tenderly, and he kissed the top of Robin's head. "We all know that Robin's been wanting this for a while."
"I will certainly give her my two cents," Sonny said, as he began to eat, while he rubbed Brenda's knee affectionately under the table.
Robin looked at Brenda and Sonny and she knew instantly that something was going on. Brenda hadn't told her anything, so she wasn't exactly sure what was going on with the two, but she definitely would not be surprised.
Robin had been very surprised how the three of them had stuck up for Robin earlier when Carly was about to start attacking Robin and Brenda. It had been really special because she knew if Carly wasn't Jax's wife, she would probably be all over Patrick, so she was thankful.
All she knew was thankful that her baby was going to have an amazing father. She just wasn't sure if Patrick and her had a future together. After all, it hadn't taken him long to sleep with Leyla, but Patrick hadn't wanted child. Yet, here he was, excited and proud to become a father to be.
