Things were supposed o be romantic during Valentine's Day, but it wasn't here. How could they be romantic when they were worried that their son was going to die? Alex threw clothes into the dryer. Her and Ty had come home for the day just to do a few chores that had been neglected for a very long time.

"I think we should bring a couple of photos." Alex said. Ty nodded as he put a few sandwiches into a brown bag for him. Next would be Alex.

"Sure. That would be a good idea." Ty said, "RJ would like that."

"Where are those pictures the girls made for him? She asked.

"In the living room. I think they're by the television." Ty said. Alex nodded as she went into the living room. She found a stack of drawing by the television like Ty had said they would be. She smiled softly as she flipped through them. The girls were so sweet. The phone began to ring. Alex grabbed it.

"Davis residence." She said.

"Alexandra? This is Dr. Carmichael." He said. Alex's heart sank. She felt weak in the knees.

"Dr. Carmichael, is River okay?" She asked. Dr. Carmichael cleared his throat.

"We found a match." He said. Alex fell onto the couch.

"Wh-What?" She whispered. The blood stopped running in her veins. Dr. Carmichael smiled.

"We found a perfect match for River. Everything matched... If you come to the hospital, we'll start treatments." he said. tears flooded from Alex's eyes.

"Thank you. Thank you so much, Doctor." She said as she hung up the phone. There was a match. There was a perfect match for her baby. Alex slowly pulled herself up and walked to the kitchen. She looked at Ty. The colour drained from his face.

"What happened?" He whispered to his wife, "Is River okay?"

"They...They have a match." She said. Ty stared at her.

"A m-match?" Ty almost dropped Alex's sandwiches onto the floor.

"There's a match." Alex grinned brightly, "THERES A MATCH!!"

The drive to the hospital felt like it took forever. They wanted to see who was saving their son's life. They were so excited, but yet they were terrified. Alex and Ty ran into the hospital towards River's room. Faith was sitting out of it. She stood up when she saw them.

"There's a match." She smiled.

"I know!!" Alex cried, "Are they in there??" Faith nodded.

"Yeah. You better get in there. It's a funn y sight to see." Faith chuckled softly. They and Alex both ran in there to see Bosco sitting in a bed by Rivers. he was hyperventilating. Alex's eyes widened.

"Bosco?" She whispered. He looked at her with wide eyes:

"You b-better appreciate this." he said, "Th-This is freaking me out. Th-There are needles. There are doctors and h-hospital smells."

"Oh Bosco!" Alex run up to him and threw her arms around his neck. Bosco shifted feeling slightly uncomfortable. "Thank you. Thank you." Bosco hugged her back.

"There's nothing to thank me about." he said, "They haven't drained me yet."

"There's plenty to thank you for, Man." They said as he picked River up.

"You're saving our son's life." Alex smiled.

"It's nothing really guys." Bosco said. How could they convince him that this was the best thing he could ever do. He was giving someone life. Alex and Ty were so relieved. River had a second chance.

River had a chance, but little did everyone know how long the road to recovery would be. He wasn't allowed home from the hospital due to the fear of infection, but He was getting healthier every day. The main transfusion went really well. Bosco was such a trooper. He still wouldn't admit how much of a help he had been.

"When are you going back to work?" Bosco asked as he buttoned up his shirt. Ty shrugged.

"Once I know RJ is going to be okay." Ty said.

"That's cool." He said, "Me too. I mean, when I'm feeling better. Having needles stuck into you all the time sucks."

"You have a paid leave. I saw to it." Bosco said.
"Saving the captain's sons life pays off." he winked.

"Yeah it does." Ty said handing him a sandwich. "Do you need a ride home?" Bosco shook his head.
"I'm going to take the bus home." Bosco said. Ty frowned.

"I don't think so." Ty said, "I'll drive you home."

"That's not necessary." Bosco said getting out of bed. he looked at the sandwich and took a large bite out of it.

"Yes it is. Come on." Ty said tossing him his shoes.

Ty drove the car down the busy street after he dropped Bosco off at his apartment. Life was so much more easier for Ty knowing his son was living and not a walking death trap.

Ty stopped at a red light and looked at the church on the corner. That was where he and Alex got married. he smiled softly. That place brought back some good memories. He pulled the car up into a parking space and he got out of the car.

He needed to be here, he though. Ty walked slowly into the church. There were a few people worshipping in the church. He had to be really quiet. Ty walked up to the candles and decided to light one for his father, his father-in-law, and for Sully. He knelt down in front of the alter and closed his eyes. he had to thank god.

"Dear Heavenly Father, thank you so m much for all you have done for me and my family. I couldn't have gone on if RJ had passed away. He is my boy. he's my treasure." Ty whispered, "Thank you for sending Bosco to save his life. I feel like I can live again. Please make him come home soon. I need my son to be in my home again. The girls are so happy. I know they don't truly understood what was happening to their brother, but I know with your guidance, they will. Thank you. Amen."

Ty slowly stood up and looked around the church. There were a few people crying. he knew what they were feeling even if he didn't know what their problems were. he slowly made his way out of the church. he needed to go see his son.

Alex bounced River on her knee. The baby was giggling.

"London Bridge is falling down. Falling down. Falling down. London bride is falling down. My fair lady." Alex sang to her son.

"Take the key and lock her up." Ty said walking into the room.

"Daddy scared us." Alex laughed as she held River to her chest. Ty walked over to them and kissed each of them on their cheeks. "Did Bosco get home all right?"

"Yeah, he did. I made sure he got in and in bed." Ty said.

"Good." Alex said with a smile, "Dr. Carmichael examined RJ and said that he could go home tomorrow." Ty's face brightened up.

"Really?" He asked. Alex nodded.

"Isn't that good news?" She asked. Ty nodded as he sat down.

"Amazing news." He whispered. Ty stared at his son as River gnawed on Alex's hand. He had prayed to God for River to be okay and now he was. River was great and so was Ty.
