"Lucas, we need to get clothes for the baby", said Skye as she and her husband walked arm in arm to her mother's house.

"We'll go to Nora in a few days", said Lucas. "She's bound to have baby clothes."

"Hmph", said Skye. "We'll see."

They entered Deborah Tate's house and were greeted by the woman herself. She made her daughter sit down as she believed that a pregnant woman shouldn't be on her feet for too long. "How are you feeling sweetie?" she asked. "Is Lucas taking good care of you?"

"He's wonderful", assured Skye. "He's been taking care of both us."

"So what have you done so far? What are your plans?" inquired Deborah. "Ready for the baby?"

"Almost", said Lucas. "I'll be painting the spare room next week and we need to get a crib."

"Great. What else?"

"Uh. We need to get some toys, clothes, milk bottles and other things as well.

Nora Wallace, Dr. Malcolm Wallace's wife, was a creative woman who unlike her husband, wasn't interested in the world of science. She was thirty one years old (a few years junior than Malcolm) and had arrived on the tenth pilgrimage.

She was a no nonsense type of person and yet, she was madly in love with Malcolm. She had long black hair that went till her back, emerald green eyes and a slight tan.

Two years after her arrival in Terra Nova, she felt that something vital was missing in the settlement. Back in 2149, she'd lived in L.A all her life so she was used to fancy stores and shopping malls. That's why she decided to open up a clothing store called New Hope.

She, along with a few other women designed and stitched clothes for men, women, children and infants. So that day when Lucas and Skye Taylor entered her shop, she wasn't surprised to see them. After all, everyone knew that a new addition to the Taylor family was on the way.

"Hello. How can I help you today?" asked Nora courteously.

"Hi. We're here in search of clothes for the little one", said Skye, a hand placed on her stomach,

"You've come to the right place then, hon", said Nora as she headed to the back and brought out a selection of baby wear.

"We need things for a boy. Not a girl", said Lucas. "So you better take those girly frocks away otherwise my wife will try to convince me that it's alright for our son to wear frilly pink dresses."

"Lucas!" admonished Skye. "I wouldn't do that."

Her husband shrugged. "Knowing you dear wife of mine, anything is possible."

At night, Skye sat in bed with her legs crossed as she folded all the tiny garments she'd purchased that afternoon.

The baby rompers were so small and so were the booties, bips, knitted tees and shorts. Her heart filled with warmth as she looked at the clothes and imagined how her son would look like while wearing them.

"I can't wait to meet you", she whispered to her belly. "Mama loves you so much baby boy."

Lucas walked in on the sight of Skye talking to their son through her stomach. He smiled widely. If in the past, anyone had told him that he'd be happily married to Skye Tate and expecting a child with her, he would have considered that person a nutcase but now that he was with her, all he could think about how much his life had changed.

. He no longer had plans to overthrow his father's reign. He didn't have any evil intentions. He didn't want to change anything. It was all perfect the way it was and he couldn't picture himself being so happy anywhere else.

Lucas's life was a happy one now. He had an amazing wife who loved immensely and he loved her back. They were going to be parents soon enough and nothing could ruin his good mood.

He'd learnt to let go of all his previous anger and resentment and was a different person now. Every morning, he woke up next to the woman who loved him and was carrying his son. He was successful and the colonists respected him as he'd earned back their trust. And Lucas was truly grateful with everything he had.

He was grateful to have an ordinary life which happened to be filled with such great things.

A/N: Doesn't the last bit make you feel all warm and fuzzy? A few more chapters left till I wrap this up for good.

Any suggestions for the Baby Boy Taylor's first name and middle name?
