Hey everyone! How are you! As you see, I am back to my regular updating! I really missed you all!
Disclaimer: I don't own VA. Sometimes I wish I did, but then again, I also wish I was a millionaire... Hey! Everyone is allowed their own dreams!
Adrian's POV:
I made it back to Sydney and my place and saw she had her purse over her shoulder and was buttoning Alexander's shirt. I raised an eyebrow. "Going somewhere?"
She looked at me and smiled. "Alexander and I have an appointment."
"Really? Where?"
"With Dr. Olendzki."
I was a little concerned. "Is everything okay?"
Sydney nodded. "Everything is fine. She is just going to do some testing on Alexander so we can get some more information as to what is wrong with him."
"Can I come with you?"
Sydney seemed a little startled by that request. "You want to?"
"Of course I do. Alexander is my son." Sydney sank onto the arm of the couch and started to cry. This wasn't good. I was instantly by her side. "What's wrong?"
"I did something I am afraid is going to make you mad."
"You couldn't do anything to upset me. You know that."
Sydney took a deep breath. "I told Dr. Olendzki the truth."
I was confused by that. "Why?"
"I don't know why Alexander is the way he is, but I don't want it to happen to this baby too and I want to do everything possible to prevent it. If I was telling the doctor lies about the pregnancy, there would have been nothing she could have done to help the baby."
I smiled and gave Sydney a kiss. "When you put it like that, it makes all the sense in the world." I took her hands and stood up. "What do you say that we go to this appointment and then we take Rose, Dimitri, Little A, Janine and Abe out to lunch?" I looked over at Alexander. "Do you like French fries?"
"Ummm..."
Sydney smiled. "I don't think he has ever had them."
I gasped. "You are ten and have never had French fries? We have to fix this today!"
I walked Sydney over to Alexander and smiled at them both. "Ready to go?" They both nodded and I took one of Alexander's hands while Sydney took the other. We walked out into the night air and towards the clinic.
Sydney's POV:
I sat in the clinic with Alexander and Adrian. I smiled at my two boys and ran my hand through Alexander's hair. I pulled him to me and kissed the top of his head. "I love you." He looked at me and smiled. He had never once told me he loved me, but that smile said it all. "So, Alexander, do you want a baby brother or a baby sister?"
"Sider."
I leaned close to him and whispered in his ear. "Me too."
"Ms. Kohlberg?"
I stood up and took Alexander's hand. "Ready to make a new friend?"
"Yeah."
I looked up and smiled at Dr. Olendzki. "Hello again."
She smiled back. "Hello! You must be Alexander. You can call me Holly."
"Ollie!"
"Perfect! Alexander, do you want to go play some games with my friend Karen?"
"Okay."
I watched them leave the room and I looked at the doctor. "Where are they going?"
"Karen is a friend of mine that specializes in developmental disorders and they are just going into the room next door. You can actually watch through this window."
I nodded. "Okay."
"Now, we need to talk about you. How far along are you in the pregnancy...? Really?"
I took a deep breath. "About four and a half months."
"Okay. Have you been getting any prenatal care?"
I shook my head. "No."
"Okay, well, we are going to start now. It is a little late in the game, but we can make it work. Have you at least been taking the pills I gave you?"
I nodded. "Yes."
"Then that is a step in the right direction." She smiled at me and patted the bed. "If you want to hop right up here, I am going to do an ultrasound."
"That's where I get to see the baby right?"
"Yes. And you are at the point where we should be able to tell if it is a boy or a girl."
I looked at Adrian and smiled. "Did you want to stay and see?"
He smiled at took my hand. "Of course I do!"
He helped me up onto the bed and I smiled at him a little wider. "So, do you think we are going to have a little lord or a little lady?"
He laughed. "Well, I would be happy with either, but what would you say if we just went away from all of the royalty craziness and just raised our kids to be good people?"
I cocked my head and took what he was saying in. "You would really so that for me?"
Adrian bit his lip. "What if I told you I already did that for you?"
"What are you talking about?"
"Well, Aunt Tatiana came to visit and told me if I didn't break up with you, she was going to take my title and my name. I told her that I didn't care. I loved you more."
I couldn't help smiling. "You do?"
He nodded. "I really do love you more than anything like that."
I sat up and hugged him tight. "I love you."
"I love you too."
I looked over at Dr. Olendzki. "I want to see my baby now please..."
She smiled at me. "Sounds like a plan. Why don't you lay back and relax and I will get it set up."
She turned away to set everything up and I leaned back ad closed my eyes. Everything was working out much better than I had expected. I never thought anyone would care about what happened to me. Someone loving me didn't even cross my mind and I never expected to introduce Alexander to anyone let alone someone who wanted to be his father. For once in my life everything seemed to be right. This is where I wanted to be.
"Okay Sydney, are you ready to meet your baby?"
I opened my eyes and nodded. "Yes. Yes I am."
The next chapter is going to be the lunch with everyone. We get to find out what Sydney is having and we are also going to learn a couple things about Alexander.
I hope you all liked this chapter! See you all soon!
