Chapter 3
Toby held Happy's hand as she slept in the bed next to his chair. He was so glad that Happy was okay. The hours of waiting on news had nearly killed Toby but he kept having hope that Happy and the baby would be alive and doing well. Toby's thoughts were soon interrupted by Happy opening her eyes and saying," Toby?"
"Hey." Toby said leaning closer to her bed. Happy went to sit up but winced. She looked down and then up at Toby, fear clearly shown in her eyes.
"Is the baby okay?" Happy asked slowly and carefully laying her hand on her stomach.
"The baby is doing good. The nurse told me that if you wanted to that we could page her and she would do an ultrasound for us." Toby informed Happy. Happy smiled at Toby.
"How are you feeling Happy?" Toby asked.
"Like I was just in an explosion." Happy answered with a slight smile plastered on her face.
"Good to see that getting hurt didn't change your personality." Toby said kissing her head before murmuring a "I thought I lost you" into her hair.
"What did I say about losing me?"
"That I'm not going to lose you literally or figuratively." Toby said quoting what she said after he put tracking software on her cell phone. Happy smiled and stood up and made her way over to the ultrasound machine that was in the corner of the room.
"Happy what are you doing?" Toby asked standing up. Happy ignored Toby as her rolled the machine over and laid back in bed. She rolled up her shirt and took the jell, that was in the basket attached to the cart, and proceeded to put the jell on her abdomen. She flipped the on/off switch on and took the wand in her tiny petite hand. She rubbed the jell all of her stomach and then they saw it. It was just the size of a peanut but it was beautiful. A creation made from their love given to them by God. Happy then realized that her brain and heart were at war with each other fighting for the dominant control over her emotions and that's when the sudden wave of happiness flooded her and she realized that her heart had won. She suddenly lost the grip on her shield and it fell away from her grasp and that's when Toby saw it. He saw a tears fall from her eyes and he heard her murmur," We created that."
"Yeah. We did and it is one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen." Toby said kissing her temple as a few tears escaped his eyes.
Back at the garage the team was finishing up the case as quickly as they could so they could go see the two members of their family that were currently in the hospital. Paige was packing up her bag when she looked across the room and that's when she saw Walter staring at a wall with a blank expression on his face. She made her way over to him and gently laid a hand on his shoulder taking him out of the state he was currently in.
"You okay?" Paige asked.
"Yeah. Perfectly fine." Walter said walking away from her. Paige sighed and called for Ralph.
Walter, Paige, Cabe, Ralph, Sylvester, and Tim had been there for about an hour when everyone decided to go down to the café and get some food, well not everyone. Walter had decided that he would stay with Happy. The others agreed not wanting to cause an argument that could put happy under a stressful situation that could cause her to lose the baby.
"Was it worth it?" Walter asked Happy.
"Was what worth it?" Happy asked muting the television.
"Dating a co-worker when there is chance for failure?" Walter asked.
"Yes. Walter Go for her. I heard that you went all the way up there and then chickened out of telling her." Happy told him.
"I will when I think the time is right." Walter told her.
"Walter there is no right time. I just say, Tell her before it's too late." Happy said unmuting the television. Walter sat there thinking about what happy said. Walter then stood up and made his way to the doorway of her room.
"Where are you going?" Happy asked.
"To tell Paige I love her."
