The Beverly Hills Royal Hotel Room 314

It was Friday morning and Dylan was sitting on the couch in his hotel room thinking about everything that had gone on in the week. He had arrived on Monday and it was already Friday and he had yet to speak with Brenda. The guys really had him running all over town and Kelly and the girls were keeping Brenda really busy or was it worn out? He couldn't remember which… All he wanted to do was see her and make sure she wasn't still mad at him. He rubbed his eyes as he looked out the window again… Sleeping was becoming harder as the week passed by. There was a knock on the door as Dylan came out of his trance.

"Hey Brandon I really don't feel like hanging out today…." Dylan said as he opened the door to find Brenda standing in front of him.

"I figured you were in town… Kelly and Donna won't let me out of the house… I snuck out… we need to talk…."

Brenda didn't know what to say so she started to say anything that would come out. She really wanted to talk to him and tell him what happened but she wasn't sure how he would react. She loved him more than anything and letting him know that one fight could have just ruined her life was not the right way to start out the conversation.

Dylan just stared at her wondering if he was the father. He wanted to be because he loved her and didn't want her thinking that night was a mistake… yes it was stupid, but not a mistake, especially if the baby was his because that meant that nothing happened. He smiled at her and opened the door further making sure to step out of her way so she could come in.

"I was hoping to see you today… You want anything to drink?" Dylan offered as he grabbed a bottle of water out of the mini bar.

"Dylan I'm sorry… I didn't mean to hurt you I was angry… I just wanted to forget everything for just one night. I wasn't planning on this…" Brenda said pointing to her stomach.

"Brenda… you don't have to explain anything to me… What I said that night… I was under a lot of stress and I didn't mean any of it."

Dylan looked at her face and knew that she already felt horrible because of what had happed that he didn't want to make it any worse. He told her he didn't mean what he said but inside he meant every word of it. She was being selfish and had become self absorbed but if it meant that she would feel like herself again he would hold it inside. Suddenly, though, he felt like the room was getting smaller. He blinked as the room slowly went back to normal… What was going on?

"Dylan you okay? You look a little pale…" Brenda said concerned about him.

"Yeah I just haven't gotten a lot of sleep lately… I want to find out if I am the father!" Dylan said the last part without thinking.

"I thought you might… I made an appointment with the doctor for eleven… We could go now if you want… get something to eat…" Brenda began.

"Let's get out of here!" Dylan said grabbing his coat and keys before heading out the door.

The Doctor's Office

Brenda and Dylan had gone straight to the doctor's office and were waiting for the nurse to call Brenda's name. The waiting room was actually nice considering the fact that waiting rooms were normally depressing because the news is usually bad. In this case it could be good or bad and Dylan was hoping for good news. Deep in his heart he wanted to be a father, he just didn't want to screw up like his father did. Brenda on the other hand just wanted to get today over with… she was tired of all the waiting and just wanted to hold this baby in her arms. Why did it have to take so long to have a baby? She knew the answer but she couldn't help but ask it in her head.

"Brenda Walsh?" The nurse called from the hallway.

"That's us…" Brenda said as she grabbed Dylan's hand and followed the nurse.

Dylan was careful to note the way they were going so that they wouldn't get lost on the way out. There were three lefts, then a right, and another left and down another long corridor before they finally were let into a room on the right side of the hall. The room was a light blue color with a cloud border along the ceiling and a white board that sat about three feet from the floor. The board had a flower drawn in the corner and a message that read, 'Thank you for making me feel good… Kaitlynn W.' Dylan figured the girl had to be around seven years old because the writing wasn't that bad.

"You sure you want to do this?" Brenda asked him.

"Yeah I want to know it might make things easier for us…" Dylan began.

"I'm scared… sometimes I think it is better not knowing and just pretending…" There was a knock on the door.

"Hey Brenda how are we feeling today?" The doctor asked walking into the room.

"I'm feeling great… we were just curious on the DNA tests that can be done to figure out the father of the baby… or at least just to see if…"

"I want to know if I am the father as soon as possible." Dylan said because Brenda seemed to be having a little trouble.

"Well there is one test that we can do but the results won't be in for a few days." The doctor told them.

"Well I guess a few days is better than waiting until the baby is born to find out…" Brenda said looking over at Dylan.

The doctor went on to explain what was going to happen and then left to prep for the procedure. Brenda did the same, while Dylan went into another room to get some blood drawn. By the time everything was collected and the test were complete both Brenda and Dylan were ready to fall into bed. They had been at the doctor's office almost six hours before they were able to leave. Brenda was overjoyed that Dylan had forgiven her but she was also terrified to get the results because they may not be what they both secretly wanted to hear.

Casa Walsh Kitchen

Brandon and Kelly were sitting at the table eating dinner and wondering what Brenda could possibly be doing up in her room all day. Neither one of them had seen her since this morning. She had said she was tired and so Kelly just figured that she fell asleep and hadn't felt the need to get up just yet. There were days that she would have loved to do that herself. Brandon on the other hand thought it was odd that the drama queen herself had not shown her face all day.

"I'm gonna go check on her?" Brandon finally said.

"You will leave her alone… come on Brandon don't you think we've been kind of smothering her lately? I mean Dylan is in town and we have been keeping them both busy so that they can't see each other." Kelly said feeling bad that they were deceiving their friends like that.

"Kel, I know my sister and she is not upstairs…. In fact I bet you anything that she went to go and see Dylan… She knows he's in town…" Brandon finished as he got up and headed towards the stairs.

"Brandon Walsh get your butt back to this table!" Kelly snapped as the front door swung open.

"Hey guys!" Brenda said sitting down and helping herself to some food. "I could smell this all the way in the back yard."

"That's not where you were, was it Bren?" Brandon asked sitting back down.

"I grabbed your coat… Oh hey Kelly, Brandon." Dylan said walking into the room.

"Dylan you two were together today?" Kelly asked confused.

"Yeah we went to the doctor to see if I was the father of the baby…" Dylan started as he stood behind Brenda's chair.

"When do you get the results?" Kelly asked noticing that Brandon was still processing the fact that the two of them were together after everything that had happened.

"The doctor is supposed to call in the next couple of days with the results so keep the line free…" Brenda said smiling for the first time all week.

Two Days Later Casa Walsh Living Room

Brenda and Dylan were both sitting on the couch watching whatever was on television at the time. Kelly was at the clinic with one of the teenagers in the foster care center and Brandon had been called into the Beat. There was some sort of issue with page three that they needed to sort out so he had just left. It was about twenty minutes into the movie they were watching when the phone rang.

"Hello?" Brenda asked.

"Is this Brenda Walsh?" The voice asked.

"This is she… can I help you?" Brenda questioned.

"This is Melissa from Doctor Harrison's office and I just wanted to let you know that we have the results…"

"Oh great hang on a second… Dylan the results are in… Okay we're listening." Brenda told Melissa.

"It seems that Mr. McKay is an exact match… Congratulations!" She said before hanging up the phone.

"Thank you!" Brenda said setting the phone down on the coffee table before hugging Dylan.

It was the answer both of them had wanted to hear and it was a big relief to know that everything was going be fine. Dylan hugged her backed smiling because he had finally gotten Brenda back in his life, and now she would always be in his life, which is just the way he wanted it.
