Martin woke up to Simon sitting in the corner reading a text book. He yawned and got out of Ruthie's bed. Simon looked up and handed Martin the other cup of coffee. "When's your class?"

"10:30."

"I'll watch her till I have to go to work at 4 and then Sandy will come in until you come back." Martin looked back at Ruthie and checked his watch. He walked over to Ruthie and kissed her cheek before leaving in need of a shower.

Ruthie woke up an hour after Martin left and looked at Simon. He looked so serious as he read his book that Ruthie wanted to laugh. She tried to stifle a laugh but failed and Simon looked up at her.

"What's so funny?"
"You look so serious reading that it was funny."

"I'm glad that I can provide entertainment."

"How are you? I feel like we haven't talked in awhile."

"I'm trying to get my masters."

"Is it hard?"

"You have no idea. How are you?"

"I'm good besides the current situation I'm in." She said pointing to the hospital bed. "Do you happen to my lap-top and books?"

"Why I thought you would want those so I got them." He handed her all her stuff and they proceeded to work in a comfortable silence. Mrs. Camden walked in and smiled at her children which concentrating so hard.

"Good morning sweetie, how are you today?"

"Good."

"I see you can talk."

"Yep came in handy when Peter came for a visit." Annie laughed at the thought of what could've happened.

"I talked to the dean yesterday."

"And?"

"He said that if you could finish your term paper on time and do some other work he'll work it out with your teachers."

"That's good."

"So how are things with Martin?"

"Fine, its been really nice having him around." Just then Sandy and Aaron came in and Sandy kissed Simon's cheek as he left for work.

"Ruthie I think its time you met Aaron." Ruthie smiled down at the little boy who was the spitting image of Martin and Sandy.

"Hi I'm Ruthie Camden." She said patting a spot on the bed next to her. Aaron quickly jumped up and smiled at her.

"I'm Aaron Brewer. My daddy told me about you."

"Oh really?"

"Yep he says that you're the most beautiful girl he's met." Aaron said looking at his shoes.

"Hey Aaron would you like to color with me?" The little boy nodded and took the coloring book Ruthie offered him. She turned to Sandy who seemed to have a lot on her mind. "Are you okay?"

"I have so much to do."

"Why don't you leave him with me and go do what you have to do?"

"Are you sure?" Ruthie nodded and sat up in bed moving her stuff. "Hey Aaron mommy's gonna go run errands will you stay with Ruthie?"

"Sure mommy."

"Okay baby I love you."

"I love you too mommy." Sandy thanked Ruthie and left with Annie. Ruthie and Aaron colored and watched cartoons on TV before Martin came in. He looked at his son and Ruthie laughing. They looked so good together; Aaron was lying on Ruthie's bed cuddled up against her falling asleep and Ruthie had her arm around him.

"Hey Ruthie." He said kissing her cheek and kissed Aaron's cheek. "Where's Sandy?"

"She had errands to run and she looked so tired that I told her that I would watch Aaron."

"Did you guys have fun?"

"Yep and he comes in handy."

"How so?"

"You think I'm most beautiful girl in the world?" Martin blushed remembering when he and Aaron looked through the box of pictures.

"Yes I do." He kissed her again as Aaron's little head shot up.

"Daddy!" Aaron exclaimed and grabbed onto Martin.

"Hey buddy did you have fun with Ruthie?"

"Yeah and you were right she's really pretty and funny."

"So do you like her?" Aaron motioned for Martin to come closer.

"I really like her daddy." Martin smiled and Aaron kissed his cheek. Sandy and Simon came in and saw how good they looked together.

"Hey Aaron, its time to go home."

"Okay, bye Ruthie bye daddy."

"Bye Aaron." They replied at the same time. After they left Martin turned towards Ruthie. "So how was your day?"

"My day was fantastic. I got to meet the closet kid in the world and he colored me a picture." She handed him the picture of Winnie the Pooh and Piglet. It said Love Aaron in the bottom corner.

"I'm glad you guys hit it off." He kissed her cheek as they hit it off.
