Previously...

I looked at Gordo questioningly and he said, "That was your mom...my father was in a car accident.

Lizzie's POV

I sat and watched Gordo with his head in his hands, sobs racking his body. I had my arm around his shoulders, trying to comfort him. I looked around at the rest of the somber faces in the waiting room.

My mom and Daniella Sanchez were comforting Roberta Gordon. Matt and Miranda seemed to have made up and they were holding hands. My dad was pacing andEdward Sanchez sat by the door waiting for the doctor to come back in.

The news had not been good.Howard Gordon had been in a car accident. He was waiting at a red light when a car coming up from behind ran into him, knocking him into the intersection, where a car slammed into his left side. He had quite a few broken ribs and was currently in surgery to stop the internal bleeding.

It was almost another hour before the doctor came out. He approached Mrs. Gordon and said something quietly to her. She stood and faced us all and said, "Howard is in the recovery room and only David and I can go in right now. Please, go get some rest—all of you. Come back tomorrow." She motioned to Gordo to follow her. I gave his hand a reassuring squeeze and watched him walk down the hall.

Daniella and Edward were the first to stand and they were trying to get Miranda to come with them. Reluctantly she stood and came to give me a hug. They said good night to us all and walked down the hall. My parents wanted to leave, but I told them I wanted to stay and be with Gordo. My parents were worried about leaving especially because they didn't want me sleeping in those horrible uncomfortable plastic chairs while I was pregnant. Finally, I convinced them I wouldn't stay all night and they left with Matt.

Gordo's POV

I followed my mom down the hall to the recovery room. When I walked in, I noticed how horrible my father looked. He had a tube down his throat to help keep him breathing and he was hooked up to all kinds of machines that I had no idea what they were for. He had many scratches on his face and a couple of bruises also.

I became choked up again and my mom took my hand. I knew she wasn't mad at me and that she didn't totally share my father's feelings. I was so worried that my father would die and he would go being mad at me and thinking I hated him.

I knelt down next to my father's bed and carefully took his hand in mine. I looked up at him and said, "Dad, if you can hear me, I'm sorry for what happened with Lizzie. I know I screwed up, but I love her dad and she loves me. Whether this happened or not, I would want to spend the rest of my life with her. Dad, I know she's not Jewish, but I can't help who I fell in love with. I'm sorry, Dad, I love you."

I was starting to stand as I heard a soft voice speak, "David, I'm sorry, forgive me."

I knelt back down and said, "Dad, I forgive, now rest, please get better so you'll be able to see your grandchildren."

He looked up at me and said, "I love you, son."

I stood up and looked at my mother. She walked me into the hall and asked, "Grandchildren?"

"Yes, mom, Lizzie's pregnant with triplets."

My mom smiled and gave me a hug, saying, "David, I'm sorry for our behavior, I promise now to stand by you two, I love you. If you want you can move back home."

I smiled and told her, "Thank you mom, but I want to stay closer to Lizzie and our babies."

She smiled and then told me to go home and get some rest, to come back in the morning.

I walked back out and noticed everyone was gone, except for Lizzie who was sound asleep on the chair. I picked her up carefully, trying not to wake her and carried her to the car, laying her down in the backseat. When we got home, I carried her down to our bed, took off her shoes and crawled into bed next to her.
