Sorry it took me some time to get this up but with Thanksgiving coming up I have been very busy.
Lilly sat there watching TV for a while. Just then her cell phone rang. She looked at it to see Matt was calling her. She wanted to answer but something was telling her not to. She left her voice mail pick up and waited a few minutes. She decided to listen to what he had to say.
"Hey Lilly, it's Matt. I was just calling to tell you I am sorry to hear about Ash, and I wanted to see how you are holding up with all of this? So yeah, give me a call later or something just so I know you are okay. I hope to hear from you soon, bye." Lilly looked at the baby sleeping beside her.
"What do you think, should I call him back." Aden just gave her a little smile.
"Yeah maybe I should, after all he does need to know he has a son." Lilly picked up the phone and called Matt back. She didn't get a answer just his voice mail. Maybe he was doing to her like she did to him. "Hey Matt, I was just calling you back. I was wondering if you could come over sometime and visit. That would be really nice. So call me back or just come stop in, Bye." Lilly got up and took Aden up for a bath. After his bath she got him a bottle and sat down to feed him. No longer she sat down the door bell rang.
"Who could that be." She said getting up and answering the door. Just as she opened it she seen Matt standing there.
"You said to stop in, so here I am." He smiled at her. That smile then faded soon as he seen the baby in her arms.
"Yeah, come on in." She said walking over and sitting down with the baby.
"I though you couldn't have kids?" Matt asked wondering who's baby she was holding.
"I can't, there is something you need to know. He is yours and Ash's baby." She said watching Matt just stair at her with a blank expression. "She had papers that if anything went wrong for me to take care of the baby, or do what I think is best like foster care or giving him to you."
"Foster care? Are you going to?"
"I though about it, but I really don't know what to do yet. I am sort of getting attached to him. I doubt you have time to raise him anyway's."
"I really don't, but I don't want him to go to foster care."
"I really don't want to send him there, he is all I have left of my sister." Matt looked at the baby.
"Can I hold him?"
"Yeah, his name is Aden, it was on a paper my sister had of names."
"Who's last name does he have?" Matt asked looking up at her as she handed him the baby.
"I gave him yours, I hope your not mad about that."
"No, I'm not mad. I am really glad you did." Matt took the baby from Lilly then she sat down next to him.
"He looks a lot like you." Lilly said smiling as Aden opened his eyes and looked at his daddy.
"Yeah, like my twin. Maybe he will be a wrestler like his daddy some day." Lilly laughed when he said that.
"Do you want anything to drink or anything?" She said trying to leave the room before she broke in to tears.
"No, I'm good. I am just going to hold him for a little while if that is okay with you."
"Yeah, that is fine." Lilly went out in the kitchen and started to do the dishes. Just after she finished Matt walked in the room.
"I put him in his crib, he fell asleep."
"Okay." Lilly started to put them away when Matt stopped her.
"Lilly, maybe we can work things out and he can be like our child."
"I don't know Matt, I am going threw so much right now. A relationship and all this seems like to much for me."
"We can take it slow, please Lilly I really do love you and I want to be with you and be here for the baby."
"You can be here for him with out a relationship with me." Lilly said feeling like he was only trying to get with her because of the baby.
"Yes I know that but I really do love you and I want to be with you."
"Just give me some time, maybe we can take things slow, very slow." Lilly said finishing putting her dishes away.
"Thanks so much, I have to get going but I will stop in tomorrow morning."
"Okay, see you then. Bye." Lilly said hugging Matt.
"Bye" He hugged her back then kissed her forehead and walked out the door. Lilly sunk down to the floor and pulled her knees in to her chest. She laid her head down on them about to cry. Just then she heard Aden start to cry. Lilly got up off the floor and went to check on him.
"Hey, what's wrong?" Soon as she picked him up, he stopped crying. From that moment on she knew he was attached to her and wouldn't be able to give him up to anyone. "Well little guy, looks like your going to have your daddy in your life after all." She took him in the living room and went to put him in his swing. He started to cry until she picked him back up. "Okay, okay, I wont put you down. A least not till you fall asleep." Lilly kissed his forehead and held him till he fell back asleep. She took him in her bedroom and put him in the crib. "Night little one." She said getting herself ready for bed because she knew every four hours he would be waking her.
