Hey guys! I'm so sorry that I've pretty much neglected this site all summer, but I'm back again. It's better late than never right? I hope this is worth the wait, and I'll try to upload another chapter by Monday. Tell me what you think, I tried a different thing: the whole past events/memories thing. Just so ya know, the huge part in italics, that is a past memory. And if there are any mistakes, they're all mine.

Nothing could've prepared Josh for when he walked into the hospital room. The small white room made Donna look even paler then ever and the beeping monitors reminded him of his own brush with death. As he pulled the visitor's chair next to the bed, he noticed the cuts all over her face, which were cleaned and almost invisible from a distance. The steady rhythm of her heartbeat lulled Josh into a daze as he waited for Donna to wake-up.

"Hey, you're home! I thought you had a meeting." Donna said as she shut the door and put her keys on the table next to it.

"Well, I decided to surprise you as part of your anniversary gift." She heard him say from the kitchen. As she walked in, Josh was putting the finishing touches on two plates of food that looked delicious. "Mhm…looks good." She turned to the cabinet with the glasses and poured water into two of them.

"It should be good, it's your favorite from Delano's." She had smile, he'd gotten the chicken fettuccini dish which she had ordered on their first official date.

"Your super powers of ordering food amazes me still." She walked toward the table with the glasses of water and now noticed the bouquet of vibrant, exotic flowers.

"Oh these are beautiful, thank you."

"I thought so too, I thought they were better than the usual bouquet of roses." She took one of the plates and before going to the table gave Josh a quick, but tender kiss.

"Happy anniversary."

"Happy anniversary to you too." And with that they started eating.

After they had cleaned up the dishes, they sat down on the sofa, each with a small wrapped gift. Josh handed Donna her gift first, and when she opened it she found a delicate silver chain with a diamond circle pendent.

"I love it! Could you do me the favor of putting it on for me?" As he reached for the box, she lifted the hair off her neck and held it up as he fastened the clasp. When she let her hair back down, she turned to him and gave him a kiss just as tender as before, but let her lips linger on his for a little longer.

"This is an amazing necklace, you didn't have to get me something like this, dinner would've been enough."

"I know, but I knew you would like it."

"Thank you. Now, my gift may not seem like much, but I have a gut feeling that it will trump yours."

"Really what makes you think that?"

"I like to call it woman's intuition, so now I have to know if I'm right or not." She handed him the gift and waited for him to open it.

"Maybe I'll wait for a little while now that I know that secret."

"Yeah, but you wouldn't do it."

"Really…and you know that how?"

"Because you're just as competitive as I am and its killing me so it must be making you crazy. So just open it and find out." She watched carefully as Josh slowly ripped the wrapping paper getting to the outside of the white box. For someone who was so unorganized, he unwrapped a gift with such precision. When he opened the box, she watched his face go from confused, to shocked, to disbelief, and finally to ecstatic in a matter of a few seconds. He had taken the little yellow jumper and a bib that had 'I love my daddy' written on it and was now holding them in his lap.

"Really?" He whispered, almost inaudibly.

"Yep," she paused for a second wiping a tear from under her eye. "I told you my gift would beat yours." She said as she gave out a little nervous giggle. He motioned for her to move even closer, wrapping his arms around her and just held onto her.

"You were right." He whispered into her hair, "This couldn't be beaten by anything."

For some reason that one moment kept replaying through his mind for the whole time he was sitting there. He remembered that feeling of pure joy and now realized that their baby may never get the chance to wear that little jumper and bib. He felt tears form in his eyes, but before one had the chance to fall, he felt Donna's hand grasp onto his hand as hard as he was holding hers. He looked up to see her awake, and wiped the tears from his eyes before continuing.

"Hey, you're up…do need me to get a nurse? They said you might be in pain when you woke up." She shook her head no and looked at him helplessly.

"Do you remember what happened?" Again she shook her head no, and he realized that it was his job to tell Donna that the baby they had been waiting for may be gone before they had the chance to meet her.
