A/N: Hey again, thanks for all of the wonderful reveiws! And mainly what I
want to say about this chapter is at the end of it so you wont get the rest
of this till the end! Lol. ~Jess
Eight hours of intense pain, being in a zone of unrealism colliding with the chaos which took place upon the delivery and Gordo never leaving her side; Lizzie gave birth to a beautiful baby girl. As she held the tiny life in her arms, she swept her vision over her features, a smile etched on Lizzies face as she gently touched the dark hair beginning to grow on her head. As they asked for her name, Lizzie thought which she liked best from the couple she had picked out.
" Alexis Zephyr Gordon." Her voice sounded gentle, firm as if she knew exactly what her answer would be from the first day.
Alexis stirred in her arms and let out a soft wail which grew louder and stronger with each second. Gordo noticed Lizzie fighting to keep her eyes open and took Alexis from her so he could have a chance to hold her. He felt pride grow inside of him as he tried to rock her. He felt as if she was his own flesh and blood. At that moment, when she opened dark blue eyes, Gordos heart was stolen. In that one act she had him wrapped around her finger.
He never imagined he could fall so deeply inlove twice, in one lifetime.

* Three days later, Alexis's homecoming *
A loud cry filled the tiny room as Alexis screamed in the night, Lizzie took a breath and made a move to get the baby but then she noticed a figure moving towards her crib. A breath forced its way through her lips as she sighed with contentment. The form then picked her up, whispering softly which aided her fading cries.
A smile formed on Lizzies lips as Gordo sat in the rocking chair settled next to the crib and rocked the baby to sleep. Her eyes fell slowly with the sight freshly in her mind as the darkness engulfed her.

The past three days have been an entire different world for Lizzie and Gordo. Their parents have helped out as the experiance grew but the feelings of protectivness entwined with love never changed. They have never been more thankful that Lizzie didnt give up this amazing little girl. Every smile, every giggle, even every kick made them fall deeper inlove with her.
Lizzie picked up Alexis from the baby tub and wrapped her in a towel. As she squeeked a yellow rubber duck at her and seen the tiny giggle from her baby she felt happiness in her heart. After putting a diaper on the infant she put her in a a two peice set of white pajamas with little yellow ducks on them, complete with blue matching socks. As she placed a newborn hat, which was a soft pink, on her head she heard the door creak open.
Gordo came in the bedroom and hugged Lizzie from behind, giving her a soft kiss on the neck. After leaning her head to the side, she squealed.
" Hey! Youre home early!" She said with suprise.
" Yeah, I thought me and you could go somewhere with Alexis...you know...as a family." He said as he softly touched the top of the baby's and soothed her little forming curls.
" Thats a good idea...it sounds nice.What did you have in mind?" She asked.
Gordo picked up the baby in thought for a moment and gives her a binky.
" Well....it depends."
"...On what?..."
" If you want to face my relatives or not..." He said, half true.
He then handed off Alexis to her, Lizzie hugged the baby to her chest with a pause as her eyes locked on the small, white gold, diamond ring on her pacifier cord. The air seemed to stop as everything begin to slowly click into place. As he unhooked her pacifier and undid the ring, he sat down on the rocking chair. Taking her hand he pulled her and Alexis close as he spoke.
" Lizzie, I know Alexis isnt my baby too paternally but I feel as if she is and you also know Im not that good at talking about this kind of thing. Its like when Im around you, in my head it makes sense but after it comes out its totally not what I expected. I dont want to lose you again, weve been through so much and I think thats what makes us so good together. Im sorry I didnt get down on one knee, fill the room up with roses or think of a better way to do this but all I can promise you is the rest of my life if youll marry me..Please..marry me?" He pleaded as he held the ring out to her.
Tears filled Lizzies eyes as she put her ring through the finger, accepting the invitation in just that way, he stood up and hugged her. Alexis made a stirred slightly between the couple as they kissed softly.
" I thought we could all go to my parents house, they could help plan some of it and you could see them and its a chance for us to all be together as a family..." He finished.
" Ofcourse! That would be great...wow. Im so...wow." Was all she managed to say.
She was just about to kiss Gordo, but a phone ring stopped her short. She handed Alexis to Gordo, who was starting to get her bottle ready. Lizzie picked up the phone as she still watched the two.
" Hello?"
" I want my baby." A voice stated firmly.
" Excuse me..I dont think so."
" Lizzie, she is my daughter too. I have leagle rights to see her, dont I? And if I ever get her in my custody, so help me God..." Hayden threatened.
" Hayden, just leave us alone...wait...how did you call me? Your in prison..."
Haydens smile widened as he heard the trembling waver in her voice.
" Am I?"
The dialtone filled Lizzies ears, it drowned even her own thoughts as she felt frozen in time. All that kept running through her mind was the echo of his voice. It was so loud, she couldnt even hear Gordo repeating questions over again...all she could hear was...
Am I?
Am I?
"...Isnt he?..." She whispered as she tried to steady herself against the crib.
A/N: First off, the way Gordo proposed was prolly kind of dorky to come of you but Im trying to show Gordos simplicity. I dont think he needs roses and all of the huge engagment ideas people has done. I feel he only has to do the littlest things to touch Lizzie so I tried to show it here. I wasnt going to have this happen until later on but I thought you wanted something good to happen. Thanks for reading! ~Jess
