Do you want the baby to be a boy or a girl? Originally the idea was for Jackson to be if Lou really had been pregnant in Eye of The Wolf (season 3) and this baby would be Katie. But now I'm not to sure I want to follow the show that closely.

"Ty?" Amy said again. The man behind her was trying to get to pay for his groceries and she was in his way.
Ty on the other hand had froze. He stared at the women with such an odd expression. The stroller bumping him finally snapped him out of it as he glanced back at Amy. As if on cue he started acting all panicky again. He reached behind him to grab the handle of the stroller and helped Amy guide it out of the store.
"Ty, please?" The women shouted. Amy turned around at the sound of her voice, broken and hurt. Ty was protecting Amy with the way he walked touching her and forcing her forward. When they reached the parking lot he finally stopped.
"What the hell was that?" She said rarely swearing.
Ty seemed to be fending off a panic attack. He was watching the entrance to the store and had tightened his grip on the stroller. "Ty? Who was that?"
"My mother." He swallowed hard as Amy glanced back toward the store.

"Thanks, Peter. Keep us posted." Jack said as he set the phone down on the table.
"So?" Tim pressed.
"She's doing well but the baby isn't in any hurry." Jack said as Tim helped himself to a large sandwich he made earlier.
"She's gotta be getting anxious." Lisa added placing a hand on Jack's shoulder.
"We'll wait for this storm and then get on the road." He said eying Tim. "Or in your case finish that sandwich. Can you not get mayo on the good tablecloth." He threw him a napkin. Tim wiped his face.
"I'm betting the baby's another boy." Tim said.
"Okay, well I'll up your bet. You do the chores for a week."
"Okay, you're on." They shook hands. "But no way she's having girl."
"Fine. You think what you want."
Lisa shook her head. "I want no part of this."

"Miss?" The women shouted getting Amy's attention again. She turned slightly while looking back at Ty who had grabbed the baby stroller from her and started to walk away. Lily could tell her son was clearly aggravated. She hadn't seen him in almost 2 years. His hair was longer as his bangs fell in front of his eyes as he glanced back to see where Amy was. He had been in a bad way. Drinking and acting out. She feared the worst. However, the young man on the sidewalk didn't seem the same.
"Yes." Amy said again as the women seemed lost in though watching Ty.
"I didn't mean to startle him. And I'm sure this isn't exactly the way he wanted to bump into me. But I'm sorry."
Amy smiled at Ty. "Ty's not the type to open up but I'm sure you know that."
She nodded. "I'm Lily, Ty's mom." She said shaking Amy's hand.
"Hi, it's nice to meet you."
"Amy, we have to go." Ty shouted from the other side of the parking lot. He pointed at Jackson.
"I'm sorry but we have to get home." She said excusing herself.
"Tell Ty I'm sorry." She shouted at Amy a few steps away from her. "And if he wants to talk I work here." She said sadly.
Amy nodded before finishing the gap between her and Ty. Lily watched as Amy reached up to touch Ty's arm lovingly clearly trying to comfort him.

The walk back to the apartment had been quiet. Amy didn't want to push. She didn't really know anything about his mother from the time he had been away. She was aware of her behavior when Ty was a child. And her lack of standing up for herself and Ty had landed him in juvie. She couldn't help but take Ty's side in that. If she'd been a real parent half of the things Ty went through wouldn't have happened. But then she remembered they wouldn't have met each other. So in some way she was happy about it. She reached for Ty's hand smiling lovingly at him. He surprisingly returned it. They made their way into the apartment finally. Amy grabbed Jackson to get him cleaned up before setting back into the highchair. "Ready for some grilled cheese?" She said smiley at him.
Ty had started fixing the sandwiches. "3 grilled cheeses coming up."
"Ty? Do you want to talk?" Amy said leaning against the counter.
"I'm good, Amy. I just want to get him fed before Lou calls again worried."
Amy giggled. "She's gotta be the only person in labor to still be worried about everything else going on."
"Yeah. She's kinda nutty." Ty smiled. "I don't wanna talk now but I promise we will, okay?"
Amy nodded.

"We're almost there." Peter said encouraging her.
"We?! We? I don't see you laying here." Lou snapped pulling hand away from him. Peter didn't quite understand why she was so angry this time around.
"I'm sorry."
"You said we were almost there 2 hours ago. I wanna go home."
"Okay. That's impossible. That baby is coming whether we're ready or not."
"I know."
Lou nodded before reaching for another ice cube. "Why so stressed out anyway? You're an amazing mom."
"There's just so much pressure. My dad especially."
"There's no pressure. This is our baby not his. And he wants to make an effort." He paused. "We haven't decided on any names yet."
"I like Nathan if it's a boy. And maybe Emma or Jade for a girl." She smiled.
"Not Timothy?" Peter joked.
"What about Walter?" She mocked using his middle name.
"No." He turned up his nose. "I like Emma. And maybe Ryan."
"I love that Jackson is going to have a sibling. Amy and I use to be so close."
"Can you believe how far we've come?"
"Have I told you how much I love you?"
"No, not lately."
"I'm sorry for yelling at you." She squeezed his hand.
"I love you." He leaned down to kiss her.

The storm in Hudson didn't seem to be letting up and flights had been delayed again 2 hours. Amy could see the anger in the text her dad sent. Instead she pushed her phone back into her pocket and watch Ty pushing Jackson in a swing. The toddler was giggling. "Not too high." Amy shouted.
"Higher." The three year old shouted making Ty laugh.
"He knows what he wants."
"He's his mothers son." Amy folded her arms. "You're getting the hang of this parenting thing." She got up and walked behind Ty putting her arms around him.
"Slide." Jackson yelled.
"Okay." Ty picked up Amy's nephew and put him on the gravel.
"Stay where we can see you." Amy said leading Ty back to the bench as Jackson took off toward the slide.
"I like the sound of that. Us." Ty smiled.
"It seems so natural." She leaned her head on his shoulder.
