Chapter 13

''Well, I don't know what happened, but everything looks really good. What about your memory?'' Patrick asked Jason after examining him.

''Well, what do I need to remember? Did something happen in the…'' his voice faded when he saw the fear on Sam's face. He was just joking, but he realized it wasn't funny at all. ''Ok, I remember everything from the past years as Jason Morgan, but nothing from before.'' Sam's sigh of relief was heartbreaking, and he wanted to hold her. He saw Lila wanting to climb on the bed with him and he gestured for Sam to set her down. She did, and Lila climbed in his arms and fell asleep very soon.

''Jason, you will have to stay here for a while, I don't know for how long but you can't go home right away. I want to run some tests on you but will do that later,'' Patrick said while looking at Lila in his arms. Jason nodded and Patrick and Robin left the room, leaving the three of them alone.

''Let me look at you,'' Jason whispered and Sam looked down on him. Jason looked intently at Sam and noticed something different. ''Wow…''

''Hey – what?'' she asked him, thinking it was something wrong. ''What is it?''

''Well – you know, you gained-'' he grinned when she playfully hit him on his arm. ''I know I know, you can never say that to a woman. Is this what I hope it is?''

''What is that you hope?'' she teased back, as she looked at his hand. He raised his hand and touched her stomach, and he held his breath.

''O god – Sam…'' he sighed and he wanted to hold her, but he couldn't. ''I love you so much, you know that?''

''I love you too, Jason Morgan,'' Sam replied, and she pressed her hand on his.

''Sam – I don't want to ruin it – but is it safe?'' he asked her, worried about that from the start.

''Yes, Jason, it is. It turned out everything they saw at my last checkup months ago is gone,'' she told him, and he sighed again.

''You know I remember some things when I was in the coma…'' he said but his voice faded when the little girl in his arms stirred. He looked down and saw her looking at him with big eyes, and he smiled at her.

''Daddy!'' the little girl started, and he widened his eyes when she started to ramble. He looked at Sam, who smiled at him. She was used to it by now, he just had to get there. He looked at Lila while she told him all about the time he was 'sleeping', and all he could do was smile. He had missed the DNA test, but because she was here he had figured everything turned out for the best.

''…So when I picked up your hand and you squeezed it, I called mommie, and she pressed that – that thingy over there,'' Lila finished explaining while pointing at the alarm bell. He smiled at her, and closed his eyes. He was tired, and Sam saw it.

''Come on, baby, were going to let daddy sleep ok?'' she said to Lila, who started to protest. But she didn't took no for an answer and she took her in her arms. She gave Jason a kiss before leaving him alone, and he could see it was reluctantly. He felt guilty for letting her go, but he was just too tired to deal with that little rambling girl. He smiled, loving the way Sam was with Lila, and glad she had her little baby girl back.

He thought about what Sonny had done, and he became enraged. He knew he had to take it easy, but when he got out of this hospital he would hunt him down like an animal.

His thoughts jumped back to Sam, and he smiled when he could see her standing there, with her stomach just a little bit swollen from her pregnancy. He was so excited, but also scared for a baby to come in his world. He was sure she knew what his thoughts were, and he hoped he could show her how excited he was about becoming a dad. He was a dad to Lila, and now he would get a baby with his own blood. He really was excited and he couldn't stop smiling. Just then Robin walked in, and he knew he looked ridicules when he saw the look on her face.

''Hey, Jason. How are you feeling?'' she asked him, and he smiled at her.

''Pretty good, Robin. I have Sam, Lila, a new baby on the way and my memory back. What else can a man ask for?'' he replied and Robin smiled.

Sam laid Lila down on the bed and gave her a kiss.

''Goodnight baby,'' she whispered, careful not to wake Lila. She didn't close the door – Lila didn't like it, she was scared in the dark. She slowly walked to her own bedroom and got ready to take a bath. The baby monitor she was carrying on the sink in the bathroom. She ran a bath and grabbed a shirt of Jason's to sleep in. she had done that the whole time he was in the coma, and she felt comfortable in them. Like he was with her even though he wasn't.

She sank down in the hot bath and sighed. This was heavenly.

When she came out of the bath she looked at herself in the mirror. She loved that she was growing, and she rubbed her hand over the little baby bump. She had missed Jason, and she had wished he was there with her when Robin had told her about it. She dried herself and took the shirt of Jason and put it on. She inhaled the scent on it, and she missed Jason even more. She missed sleeping in the same bed as him, and she missed hugging him.

She took the baby monitor even though she knew she wouldn't need it. Lila was getting big enough to come to her when she was scared but she didn't want to miss it when she had a nightmare. Soon she would have to use it for the baby that was growing inside her, and she smiled. This was her second child, but the first one she would see growing up. She would be there when he or she took her first steps and that kind of stuff.

She laid down on the bed and pulled the covers over her. She just laid there for a while, her eyes closed and on her back – and that's when she felt it. it was the tiniest flutter, and she didn't know if she really felt it or if she was just imagining it. But she wasn't, because not much later she felt it again, and she knew it was her baby inside moving. She didn't know she was crying until she felt something in her ear – a tear.

Suddenly she heard a scream and she quickly sat up and ran to Lila's bedroom – seeing as that was where it came from. When she pushed open the door Lila was sitting in her bed, crying.

''Oh baby, did you have a nightmare?'' Sam asked her, and Lila nodded and wrapped her arms around her neck. She held on to Sam as if she never wanted to let go, and what she said next shocked Sam to the core.

''Don't let them touch me again mommie, please.''
