Ty took a couple of weeks off of work after the shooting. It had spooked both he and Alex. He kept on thinking back to Sully's death and His father's death. Ty shuffled down the hallway, kicking one of River's toys out of the way. He had been through so much recently, he couldn't believe today was V-day. The dreaded day.

"You ready for this, Sweetheart?" Alex asked grabbing the car keys. Ty looked at her. Who was she kidding? She must be smoking crack.

"I am never ready for this." Ty said, "No man should be."

"Come on." She chuckled taking his hand. He was being utterly ridiculous, "It'll be all right." Ty groaned loudly and followed her to the car. He wasn't looking forward to this at all. Ty closed his eyes as he settled into the car. His heart pounded in his chest. He thought he would throw up. Alex continued talking but he didn't comprehend what she was saying.
"I'll miss them." Ty whispered as he got out of the car. Alex took his hand and pulled him into the clinic. He was acting like they were going to cut off his penis. He was a big baby.

"Hi there. My husband has an appointment with Dr. Covers today. Tyrone Davis Jr." Alex said. The secretary nodded.

"Dr Covers will see you right now, Ma'am." She smiled.

"I don't think this is a good idea, Alex." Ty said to her.

"Yes it is." She squeezed his hand and led him into the doctor's office. Dr Covers stood up and smiled when he saw Ty and Alex.

"Good afternoon." He extended his hand.
"Good afternoon." Alex smiled at him. She shook it. She glanced at Ty, "My husband...he's a little nervous."

"More than nervous." Ty muttered. Dr. Covers chuckled.

"That's understandable." He said motioning to the chairs. "Why don't you sit down so I can go through a few routine questions?"

"Okay." Ty breathed and sat down. Alex chuckled.

"All right. I must ask to make sure this is what the two of you want." Dr Covers asked. Ty nodded.

"We have two girls and a boy." He said, "We don't make enough to have more even if we wanted to." Dr. Covers looked at Alex.

"I'd like to stick with the three we have." She chuckled.

"Very well." Dr Covers smiled. "This is reversible if you change your minds."

"I don't think so." Ty mumbled.

"All right." Dr covers stood up, "Mrs. Davis, if you would wait outside. This shouldn't take very long. The nurse will shave the area. We'll numb it and it's a simple procedure."

"For you. It's not every day someone is cutting at my nads." Ty said. Alex giggled softly and kissed the top of his head.
"I'll wait right outside. The nurse will come get me when you're finished. All right?" Alex asked. Ty nodded slowly. His eyes were large.

"Okay." He mumbled. Alex walked out of the office. She sat back down in the overstuffed grey chair. She was so happy that Ty was doing this for her. As much as she loved having children and being a mother, she couldn't risk another sick child like River was. She had the perfect family already.

December 6th, 2009

The snow was starting to fall. Christmas was obviously in the air. The girls were trying to teach River what Christmas was, but he just didn't get it. Caroline was now old enough to really appreciate the spirit behind Christmas. it was nice.

"Joey wants a car." Kim said. Alex frowned and looked at her partner.

"Joey wants a car for Christmas?" She asked. Kim laughed and nodded.

"He's sixteen. He's at that age." Kim shrugged. Alex shook her head. She couldn't believe Joey was sixteen already.

"Are you going to get him one?" She asked.

"Jimmy and I are talking about it. nothing new of course." Kim said, "I had one when I was sixteen. It was a shit box but it got me to school and work. Joey's gonna get a shit box if anything."

"I'll keep my eye out for a cheap one." Alex said as she stopped the bus at a red light. "I can't imagine Jade sixteen or anything like that."

"You have ten years." Kim said, "Don't worry about it."

"That's easier said than done." Alex sighed. "Someday they will all be out of the house." Kim smiled.
"But it'll be nice knowing you raised some wonderful people." She said. Alex smiled weakly.

"I know I just want to loose them." Alex said, "Remember when Caroline was kidnapped or when Jade was lost in the snow? I still think about it. Now, RJ is starting to be on the move, I think about it. I could loose all three in an instant."

"Sure you can. I could loose Joey today, but I'm not going to think about it. I'm not going to let the what if's consume me." Kim told her partner, "It'd make my life miserable if I did."

"I know that." She smiled softly. "Want to go get lunch?"

"I was waiting for you to suggest that." She laughed. Soon, the women pulled into a parking space in front of Chili's. "I need a huge sandwich."

"Me too." Alex said walking into the resteraunt. "Two for nonsmoking."

"I should start smoking again." Kim stated. Alex groaned.

"No. Don't. I will ask to not be your partner anymore." Alex laughed sliding into the booth.

"Okay, I won't then." She said sitting across from her best friend. "You know, if you ever need to seriously talk, Alex, I'm here." Alex smiled softly at her.

"I know and I thank you for that." She said picking up her menu. Kim sighed softly. Alex looked up from her menu. "What?"

"I'm getting married." She said. Alex's eyes widened.

"Wh-What?" Alex whispered. Kim chuckled. "Since when re you seeing someone?"

"I'm not really....But I'm getting married." She said.

"I'm not following." Alex said.

"I'm doing the green card thing, Alex." Kim said.

"Kim!" Alex laughed, "You're un believable! My god!"

"I know." She said, "You can meet him next week. We're trying to sort everything out right now." Alex shook her head.

"If you need me to say anything, I will back you up if you're questioned by the government." She said. Kim smiled softly.

"Thank you." She said, "Let's order and eat." Alex shook her head. She couldn't believe Kim....Marrying to get someone a citizenship. She never thought Kim would be the type.
