Disclaimer in chapter 1. I am so incredibly sorry y'all for not updating I've had every intention, but… Anyways thanks y'all for the reviews I hope this chapter is good enough to wait all this time for! Oh and I've never gone to Mexico so I don't exactly know the whole leaving from the US to Mexico thing is. Enjoy!!

Cheyenne sat crammed in the van while Steve and the captain followed in hot pursuit. They were only a few minutes from the border and Steve's mind was racing. As if a gun was trained at him his life with Cheyenne flashed before his eyes. From the moment she walked into the station and into his life, until the moment when she called out his name and was shoved into the van.

The captain had made a call, but was speaking in Spanish and paid little attention. For the rest of the drive neither of them spoke a word. Steve's dad had called hoping that he had Cheyenne, but Steve did not talk long, he informed his dad he call him if anything happened and hung up. Steve knew he was guilty if he had not led the raid on the Tao gang then he and Cheyenne would not be in this predicament right now. Another possibility arose Cheyenne was so close to her labor date he didn't know what the Tao's would do if they got a hold of his children. At last Steve read a sign…

NOW LEAVING THE UNITED STATES

Steve bit his lip, the moment of truth, the van came to a halt no one with border patrol approached the car in fact the border was vacant with a the exception of some border patrol men on the US side standing off beside their jeep. They sat there watching them intently. The member of the Tao gang piled out of the van Steve watched as Cheyenne was pushed out a gun square on her back. Captain Neuman slipped out of the driver's seat and Steve did the same. The men began to walk toward the border Tao and another man walked backwards their eyes on Steve and the captain. Cheyenne stared at Steve, her hands rested on her stomach, and she said nothing but silently observed Steve and her uncle.

"Once we cross the border then we may let her go." Tao announced. Steve stepped forward, but Captain Neuman cautioned him under his breath.

"Let them go Steve, everything is going to be all right." Adrenaline was rushing through Steve, his fingers twitched over the trigger. Steve watched as the men and Cheyenne stepped over the border between Mexico and the US. The men looked relieved the man beside Tao dropped his gun and picked up his speed to join the others. Tao then shoved Cheyenne forward and she anxiously made her way to the border Steve dropped his gun and raced to join her. Right over Cheyenne's shoulder he could see Tao aiming his gun right at Cheyenne.

"Cheyenne! No!" Steve yelled. He ran grabbing her up in his arms and twirling her around to shield her with his body. Two shots rang through the air. One hit Steve in the shoulder where he had already been hit in. Steve pushed Cheyenne down to the ground careful not to hurt her, he turned around to see Tao collapsed on the ground and the rest of his men were surrounded by a group of men in a uniform unfamiliar to Steve yelling in Spanish and English. The captain raced over to help Cheyenne and Steve as the Tao men were stripped of their weapons and ordered onto the ground.

"Steve are you alright?"

"The old saying lightning never strikes twice in the same spot must only work with lightning and not with bullets." Steve gave a response. He looked at Cheyenne.

"Are you alright?"

"A little shaken but I'm fine." Steve looked over at the men one approached the captain and they quickly exchanged a few words before the man turned around and assisted putting the Tao gang onto a truck.

"Who are they?" Steve asked.

"Mexico's border patrol their commanding officer Juan Gonzalez Salas owed me a favor and apparently the Tao gang is also wanted in Mexico as well. That's who I was placing the call to." The captain explained.

"I can't even begin to thank them." Steve admitted.

"They were in fact thanking us, Salas and his men are good men, now come on let's get you two to a hospital." Steve assisted Cheyenne into the back seat and slipped in beside her, as the captain turned the car around and took off for the nearest US hospital.

"That looks like it hurts." Cheyenne voiced in concern her voice faltered as she pressed a rag against it to stop the bleeding.

"My shoulder is still numb from the last time I got shot there, its just another scratch." His eyes concentrated on hers. "But Tao was aimed right at you." Cheyenne's eyes weld up in tears.

"Oh gosh Steve I was so scared."

"I was to." Steve admitted using his good arm to take Cheyenne in. "You don't know how bad I wanted to kill him, but rest assure the Mexican government will give Tao what he deserves and more. And if he is ever set free which is highly unlikely the moment he sets foot on US soil we will arrest them again, and they will never be free." Cheyenne choked on her tears as she stared at her husband.

"I love you." She cried. Steve then took Cheyenne and gave her a long, over due passionate kiss.

"Now what type of wallpaper is going in that nursery?"

Seven days later

Steve had been released from the hospital after 24 hours of observation, the day they returned to Los Angeles Cheyenne gave birth to two beautiful babies. A girl named Evelyn Nicole and a boy named Ewen Mark Sloan. Today the family was aloud to go home. At the Sloan residence Mark, Jesse, Amanda, Captain Neuman and a few other family members and friends gathered at the house to welcome the new family home. Evelyn was the spitting image of her mother and Ewen was the spitting image of his father. Later that night Cheyenne and Steve slipped the exhausted twins into their crib in their freshly wallpapered nursery. The wallpaper was titled "A Day at the Circus" with circus animal circling the room. Cheyenne and Steve stood back for a few moments as they watched their own flesh and blood sleep peacefully. They then closed the door behind them and headed to bed themselves.

"I'm so relieved we were able to get the house cleaned and have this all over before we brought Ewen and Evelyn home." Cheyenne whispered as she slipped under the covers wrapping her arms around Steve's bare chest.

"Me too." Steve agreed as he placed a kiss on Cheyenne's lips.
