Brooke and John knocked on the door and smiled seeing Michael Felix Mizanin. Brooke smiled at his name as she held him.

"He's so beautiful." She said smiling at her brother. "How'd he get his name?"

"He was named after his dad and his godfather." Maggie said. "After all, there's a good chance he wouldn't be here if you guys hadn't saved us." She said looking at John.

"I'm glad I could save you guys." He smiled. He looked over at Brooke. Even with what happened after Randy's death, he wouldn't change it. He had done what he had to do to save Brooke and Maggie. He would have done anything to protect Brooke and he would always protect her.

"Well, we will let you both rest." Brooke said to them. "I'm sure mom and dad will be here soon to see him."

Mike hugged his sister. "I love you Brooky."

"I love you too. You're my bro." She hugged him and then moved to hug Maggie. "He is beautiful. Congratulations."

"Thanks." Maggie smiled. "Make sure you come back tomorrow."

"We will." She smiled. "Now, get some rest."

Mike and Maggie nodded as Brooke and John left. John took Brooke's hand as they walked to the elevator.

"Are you okay?" John asked her.

"Yeah. I'm fine. We can't not talk about it. "She smiled. "I'm fine, John really. This is a happy occasion." He smiled and kissed her.

"I can't wait for our little one to be here." She smiled. "I just want our little girl to be happy and healthy. And I can't wait for you to look at our baby the way Mike looked at his."

"Little girl?"

"I have a feeling."

He smiled and kissed her. "I can't wait to hold this little one in my arms. I'm going to be the best daddy and she is not dating until she is twenty-five."

Brooke laughed. "Spoken like a true daddy but you know you can't stop that from happening."

"The hell I can't. We've got a hall closet and we can get her fitted for a chastity belt when she's big enough." Brooke laughed.

"That's so middle ages of you."

"I'm just protecting my daughter."

"And what would have happened if my dad had done that with me?"

"A lot but he didn't." He leaned in and kissed her. "I'm glad he didn't but that doesn't mean I won't do it to our daughter."

"I am so going to have to be the voice of reason where you and our daughter are concerned."

He laughed. "Oh yeah."

Mike sat in the hospital room holding Mikey and smiled when his parents walked in. Ellen smiled and took the baby from him cradling him lovingly.

"He's so precious." She said. "Hi little one. I'm your Nana." She smiled when he cooed at her. She looked over at Maggie who was asleep in bed. "Now you help her with this baby Mike. Don't you let her get too worn out okay?"

"I will Mom. I promise. I love her. She means everything to me." Ellen smiled. Marc smiled at his son.

"Have your sister and John seen him?" Mike nodded.

"They just left so Brooke could go home and rest." Ellen nodded. She was just in awe of her grandson. And in a few months she would have another grandchild. Despite how worried she was about Brooke and her mental status, she was genuinely happy about the baby.

Mike noticed his mom's face. He walked over to her. "Mom, this is a happy occasion. Stop worrying about Brooke and focus on the happiness of the situation."

"I am." She smiled. "I'm happy I'm getting two grandchildren this year. What more could any mother ask for?" She smiled. "And I'm glad Brooke is getting better. Promise me you'll look after her. Help her and John with whatever they need."

"Always Mom."

John looked over at Brooke as she slept. He couldn't wait for their daughter to be born as he was certain it was a girl. He was happy that Brooke was home from the hospital but he couldn't help but be worried. The doctors had assured him that she was fine now and the medication was doing its job. So he knew all he could do was wait and see.

Mike looked at Maggie as she slept with their son in her arms. He smiled softly. It was a beautiful sight. He thought about Brooke and all she'd gone through and hoped the rest of her pregnancy was uneventful. He just wanted his sister back.

John rushed to the bedroom when he heard Brooke scream. He walked in and saw her sitting up in the bed. "Brooke, are you okay?"

She looked at him. "Yeah, just a dream."

"Do you want to talk about it?"

She sighed as he sat down and put his arm around her. "It was about the baby and me."

"Alright."

"It was the birth of the baby. She arrived and she was healthy."

"Then what made you scream, baby?"

"I didn't make it. There was some kind of problem and I died in the dream."

He pulled her closer. "Baby, it was just a dream. Nothing is going to happen to you."

"I hope not."

"Come on, I will lay down with you." She got comfortable with her head on his chest and wrapped in his arms. He held her close. He couldn't stop his mind from worrying. He knew this was just a random dream she had and not something else but he couldn't help but think it could be. Would she always have dreams that were so real and upsetting? He had a feeling he would always worry about her mental condition. He ran his fingers through her hair and kissed her on the temple.

"It was just a dream baby. It was just a dream." He whispered. He felt a sudden peace wash over him. He knew he was right where he needed to be. With Brooke wrapped in his arms. He was put on this earth to care for and protect her. And he knew somehow things were going to be okay.
