"Johan," someone had said in a soft voice. Johan tried to open his eyes but really couldn't. He wanted to respond to the voice but his mouth wasn't working. So he decided to lay there quietly to the person speaking.

Icee sighed lightly. She sat on the bed beside him. She placed her small hand on his forehead and Johan felt a spark go through his body. Johan immediately jolted up and stared into ice pools. Icee smiled warmly at his confused facial expression. "Morning honey," she said cheerfully.

Johan blinked a few times at her the glanced around the room. He wasn't in here last night. "Icee, where am I?"

Icee frowned a little. "You're in the hospital. You've been in a coma for the past three weeks and it's only because of that damn mark on your neck." Johan's hand touched the mark lightly. "No one can see it besides me and Perseus. It's not your fault for what happened either."

"But I...I didn't push him away. I didn't stop him. I didn't even try," Johan said sadly. A few tears trickled down his cheeks. "It is my fault in so many ways. Do the other two know about the mark?"

Icee reached and wiped the tears from his cheeks. "No sweetie. And the two think you took too many pills one night and wouldn't wake up." She kisssed his forehead and stood up. "The two should be by to see you later. Until then, I think you should sleep a little more. I'll be by after and check on you." Icee left him and Johan yawned and fell back to sleep.

"You think we should go in?" Dulcie asked Judai. She had a big teddy bear with an emerald ribbon on it. "Do you think he's even awake?"

Judai shrugged. "Well, we won't know until we see him with our own eyes." Judai pushed the door open and ventured inside with Dulcie behind him. The two went over to his bedside and notice he was sleeping.

"Are you gonna tell him? You know 'I love you'?" Judai blushed a deep red. "It's not hard."

"Shut up," Judai spat. "It is hard and besides-"

"I know you still love Drew. And I also know Drew loves you too. Besides, don't you think Drew wants you to be happy? I don't think he wants you to continue to grieve over him at night."

"Can I...just think on it for a while? I wanna be a hundred percent sure and besides," he glanced at Johan's sleeping figure, "I don't want to hurt him like I already have and I prefer to tell him when he's awake."

Dulcie nodded. "Alright then." She placed the teddy bear on Johan's bed. "Well, let's find Icee."

The two left in search of Icee.

As the two left, Johan had sat up. His face was flushed. Johan heard a knock at the door and footsteps shuffling towards him.

"You feel better and I'm guessing you heard everything the two said." Johan nodded and she continued, "Well, just out of curiousity, did you think of Percy when you were having sex?"

Johan shook his head. "No I was thinking about Judai." When he realized what he had just said, Johan placed his hand over his mouth and blushed a deep red. "Icee, am I...pregnant?"

Icee sighed and crossed her arms over her chest. "Sorry, but you are. You'll just have the baby cut out of you." She watched as Johan shuddered. "Don't worry, you won't even show. Oh, and you'll have your baby in about three months."

"I thought it was nine?"

Icee smiled. Johan saw little fangs in her mouth as well. "Well, let's just say when you were sleeping, I was messing with one of the things the Vampire Council gave me a few years back. I had Leon in four months and you'll have yours in three."

"Wait, I thought vampires are extinct and why are you one?" Johan asked in realization.

"Perseus' dad bit me because he was horny and needed sex one night. I shot him in the face and then some weird chick came and got me. Then I was surrounded by these old lookin' people and they told me I had to work for them since I shot Alex. And I have been for the past eight years." Icee paused. "I'm sorry about what Perseus did to you. I really am. I told him to stay away from you but he never listens to me."

"Where is he now?"

"Your brother's house. I kicked him out for the time being. Oh and you'll be staying with Jehu. He knows everything about your condition." Icee stopped to laugh. "Jehu got kicked out again about a week ago when he asked me out to dinner."

"For fighting?"

"No for sexual harrassment of a guest, which was me. And then he had the balls to ask me to dinner. I thought it was cute so I just said yes."

"What about Haou?"

"Haou is with his parents on a business trip in Tokyo. He'll be back next month," Icee explained. "You can leave whenever your ready. My shift is over and I've been hanging around with Reno. He bought me and you dinner if you want some."

"What is it?" Johan asked with curiousity.

"Oh some chinese food. You ever have orange chicken?" Johan nodded. "Let's go get some." Icee helped Johan out of the bed and she lead him down to a big room. "Hey Reno."

"Hey Icee. This Sirius' little bro?"

"Mhm. Johan this is Reno. He's a surgeon also but spends most of his time in the secretary's office."

"Hi," Johan said shyly.

Reno got up. "No need to be shy, kid. While Icee was gone half the time, I'd sit and watch you. You did open your eyes a few times but you went back to sleep." Reno simply explained. He twisted his gold curls. "Icee was worried the most about you. She worried about you more than her own children."

Icee punched him in the arm. "Don't speak nonsense."

Johan and Reno laughed. "I wasn't speaking nonsense." He poked her in the forehead. "Shorty."

"Shut up and let's eat," Icee growled. The three sat down and enjoyed a quiet meal. Icee stood up with her cell phone. "Excuse me but I'll be right back." She left the room.

"Why do you think she left?" Johan asked Reno.

"Who knows. It could be a business call from Jackie or Aria."

"Who are they?"

"Vamps from the council."

"You know about that?"

"Of course. Icee tells me everything. Even told be about your mating with her son and the baby. Hell, she told me all about you with your crush, too." Reno shrugged. "She would tell me all this stuff since we are dating. Just don't tell anyone about it. Especially Sirius."

Johan nodded. "I won't."

"You're a good kid. I hope Judai falls for you." Reno stood and ruffled Johan's hair. "Just wait for her in here. I gotta go." Reno left and was replace by Icee.

"Gotta love that idiot," Icee said simply. She noticed the look on his face and she sighed in contempt. "He told you, didn't he?" Johan nodded slowly. "I'm sorry, but I've known Reno way longer than your brother. We grew up with each other, did everything together, and went to the same school."

"How old is he?"

"25. Reno was in the gifted program with me."

"What about Leon's father?"

"...Reno is Leon's father. I just didn't tell him yet. And I don't plan on telling him ever. I'm too scared of what he might say. Reno doesn't like kids at all. He prefers teenagers like yourself."

Johan sucked in a breath. "Leon is Reno's son and you haven't told him for the past two years?"

"No. I never mentioned it once either. Reno thinks I adopted him but like I said, I never showed with Leon and just had him on a day Reno was on vacation for a week."

"Wait, Leon's a vampire too?"

"Yes."

"Does anyone else know about this?"

"Besides Jehu, no. I actually trust him for some reason and I don't know why. We've been talking for only a week and I already trust him. It makes no sense to me in any way."

Johan thought a little. "Maybe it's because he took care of Leon. If I were you and someone took care of my child then I would trust that person since they haven't brought harm to him."

"That makes sense." Icee opened the door and saw Reno standing there with hurt in his eyes. "Shit," she whispered.

"Leon was my son and you nor the staff told me?" he asked in a broken voice.

A tear ran down her cheek. "I'm so sorry Reno. I just didn't know what to say. And I know you don't like kids so that's why."

"You could have told me. Honestly, I wouldn't have cared and why did the staff not say anything to me?"

"...I told them not to. They even burned the records of his birth being here so you never saw them. I'm so sorry," she whispered as she looked at her feet.

Reno sighed. "I always wanted a son, you know. And I'm glad that you had one and he's ours." Reno tilted her chin. "You could've told me. You tell me everything else. Leon was no different."

Johan looked at Reno with slight confusion. Icee said, "You can meet him. Come visit me tomorrow and we'll tell those kids of mine about our relationship. They have the right to know."

Reno nodded in agreement. "Alright. See you tomorrow then."

Icee and Johan leave the hospital in a hurry. They got in the car and rode in silence. "Icee, why did you leave earlier?"

"Talking to Jackie about something," she answered quickly. "Don't worry about it so much. I just had to ask him a simple question and he gave me an answer."

"What did you ask?"

Icee bit her lip. "You gotta wait for three more months then you figure it out for yourself. Right now, I'm takin' you to Jehu's place. I have to see my baby."

As Icee pulled up in the driveway, Johan noticed a girl walking towards her car. Icee had a weird expression that Johan couldn't read. Icee rolled down the window. "What the hell are you doing her, Aria?"

Aria's gold eyes held anger. "Why the fuck are you telling humans about are existence?"

"'Cuz I can bitch. Now why the hell are you here?" she repeated.

"For Leon and this boy." Aria disappeared and the two looked around for her. With a black cloud forming around her car and a fucked up screaming noise, Johan was gone. And in his place laid a golden rose.
