Chapter 37: It Feels So Real

--One Year Later--

Alexandra Goren was not one to stay late at work. Especially since she was a mother of two, and now pregnant with her third child. But no… Somehow that had not worked out, and her and her husband were once again stuck at work. They were the only two left in the building, trying to crack a case they had been working for days. Bobby walked out of the interview room, where he had spread himself out, photos and papers now littering the once tidy room. He handed her a piece of paper, and she frowned.

'What am I looking at?'

'Timeline of events…' He wrapped his arms around her softly, kissing the top of her head. 'You feeling okay?'

'Yeah… my back just hurts a bit…' He kissed her cheek, rubbing her back gently. She let out a small gasp of pain.

'You don't sound okay…' He said, his eyes sparkling with fear. She smiled weakly, kissing his cheek.

'I'm fine… I promise…' She whispered, rubbing her belly gently.

'Here you are…' He whispered, walking into the crash room. She looked up, smiling bravely. 'What's wrong…'

'I think it's time…' She whispered excitedly, tears rolling down her face. He ran to her side, his arms wrapping around her.

'Can you walk?' She nodded.

'Why… where are we going?' She whispered, shaking.

'The hospital…' He said, when realization dawned on him. 'It's actually time, isn't it?' She nodded, her hair matted together with sweat.

'Yeah…' She whispered almost silently, gripping onto him.

'Ally… Wh… what the hell am I supposed to do?' He said, voice shaking with fear.

'Help me…' She whispered sadly, tears rolling down her face. 'Please, angel…' Another contraction hit, and she let out a scream of pain. Tears spilled down her face, and she looked at him, her eyes pleading.

'I… I don't know what to do…' He whispered, stroking her hair.

'Y… yes you do… We've got two precious angels already… you know what to do…' He nodded, understanding her. He kissed her quickly, and raced over to the locker in the corner, taking out a pile of towels. She smiled bravely, watching him. Once he gathered everything he thought he'd need, he walked back over to her.

'I… you trust me?' He whispered, stroking her hair.

'Of course…' She gripped onto him for support as yet another contraction hit. Digging her nails into his back, she cried out in pain, tears seeping through his shirt.

'I… I called an ambulance…' She nodded, wondering how she missed that. 'You were having another contraction…' She smiled weakly, resting a hand on his cheek. Breathing heavily, she looked at him. 'Push when you're ready…' She nodded, and once another contraction hit her tiny body, she pushed, screaming louder than she had screamed before.

'It's over, sweetie…' Bobby whispered, holding their tiny baby in his arms. Alex nodded, her eyes still fogged with pain. He sat next to her, kissing her hair softly.

'Is… is it a boy or girl?' She asked quietly, looking up at him.

'We've got a little girl, angel…' She smiled, stroking his cheek. He placed the tiny bundle in her arms, smiling softly.

'I'm so proud of you…' She whispered, looking at her tiny daughter. She looked over at the door as she heard the paramedics arrive.

'What're we gonna call her?' He mumbled into her hair. She smiled gently, her eyes sparkling.

'I… I was thinking… Cameron Frances… a… after your Mom…' He smiled softly.

'I like that name…' She groaned in pain as he picked her up carefully, Cameron still snuggled into her chest. 'Let's get you to the hospital…'

Alex drew in a sharp intake of breath, trying to sit up, but a weight was resting on her stomach. She looked down to see her husband, his fingers tangled in hers. She gently stroked his hair, and he groaned, sitting up, eyes widened.

'E… Eames…' He whispered, tears sparkling in his eyes. Eames?

'Bobby… where's Cameron? And where are Aaron and Jodie… I wanna see my angels…' She whispered, wondering why there were so many machines hooked up to her. What went wrong between 1PP and here?

'Eames… who are they?' She felt a sob rise in her throat.

'O… our kids… our three beautiful children…' She whispered shakily, tears running down her cheeks. She looked down at her left hand. Nothing. No ring. No anything. What the hell was going on?

'We… we don't have any children…' She shook her head.

'N… no… we do! Aaron, Jodie and Cameron! You're my husband! We… we got married while I was pregnant with Aaron!' He looked at her strangely. 'Aaron… he's four… Jodie's two… Cameron.. I just had her… you.. You delivered her!' He shook his head, taking her hand in his.

'Eames... we don't have any children... We're not married...' She started screaming, tears streaming down her cheeks.

'It's not true! You're lying! Where are they?!' She started to hyperventilate, her tiny body shaking. Her doctor raced in, shocked at her behavior. He, as well as four nurses, pushed Bobby away, holding Alex down as they sedated her.

'Alex...' He whispered softly, moving back next to her. Her eyes focused back on him, a slight manic look in her eyes.

'You're lying...' She mumbled, tears still rolling down her cheeks.

'I'm not, Al... I swear...' He touched her cheek, and she sobbed.

'I... I want it to be real... We were so happy...' She whispered, slipping into a deep sleep. Bobby sighed, and started pacing, stopping at the window and staring out. He heard a slight cough, followed by a small sob. Realizing he had been standing at the window for a little over an hour, he turned around, to see her struggling to sit up. Walking over, he helped her sit up, placing the pillows behind her back.

'How're you feeling?' He whispered, handing her a cup of water. Tears spilled down her face, and she wiped them away roughly. 'That good huh?' She smiled softly, holding onto his hand tightly.

'I... I feel a little bit better...' He nodded gently, kissing her fingertips. 'Wh... what're you doing?' She whispered, and he smiled softly.

'I... uh... I was thinking...' She nodded, looking at him intently. 'When you were... uh... in the coma... I... I realized how... how much I really need you...' She saw tears sparkling in his eyes. 'How much I love you...' He stood up, walking towards the door.

'W... where are you going?' She asked, fear gripping her heart.

'Just... going...' He whispered, walking out the door. She struggled, but she managed to stand up, setting off alarm bells. Bobby raced back in, to see her sitting on the floor sobbing.

'D... don't go...' she kept whispering, tears falling down her cheeks. He picked her up carefully, laying her back down. He held her hand gently, tears rolling down his cheeks.

'I... I shouldn't have said that...' He mumbled, stroking her hair. She shook her head, limp and oily hair shaking with it.

'I... I love you too, Bobby...' She whispered, his eyes widening.

'Y... you do?' She nodded, a small smile gracing her lips. He pulled her into a small hug, kissing her cheek softly.

'Wh... what happened... why was I in a coma?' He sighed, still holding her.

'When.. when Jo kidnapped you... we arrested her... We... we never found you...' His hands tunneled in her hair. 'I spent three days straight interrogating her... finally she gave me a location... I found you... still hanging there... you... you had a really weak pulse..' Tears spilled down his cheeks. 'I thought I was gonna lose you...' She kissed his hair gently.

'You didn't, angel... you've still got me.' He smiled softly.

'Im so sorry...' She kissed his cheek, and paused, her brow furrowed in thought.

'You could use a shower...' She whispered finally, and he smiled softly.

'So could you...' He mumbled into her neck. Pausing for a moment, he pulled away gently, looking into her hazel eyes. 'Alex?'

'Yeah, Bobby...' She whispered, touching his cheek.

'I promise your dream will come true...'
