"You better let me out of here, or I swear I'll have your badges," said Britney.
"Well, its not the first time, I heard that," said John, as he started to walk a little.
"Why don't you let us go, so I can get back to Starr," said James. "You know Cole's going to hurt her."
"You are really crazy, you know that," John pointed out.
Both Britney and James were in chairs in a interview room at the station, with their hands cuffed behind their backs.
"Like I said, let me go, or I'll have your badges," said Britney.
"Well unfortunately for you, your threats are real empty, considering what we have on you," said John.
"Yeah, I heard all that nonsense," said Britney. James though was looking at her with a shocked face.
"Really, then would you call it nonsense that you tried to abduct someone in the middle of the hospital?" John pointed out. "Not to mention that we have a witness that puts you busting him out of that mental hospital months ago. So tell me again that you'll have our badges. Britney just remained silent.
"And as for you," John continued as he turned to James. "I'm pretty sure you aren't going to be heading back to that hospital, with what you've done to Starr, and possibly what you done to her baby."
"That's because Cole has brainwashed her," James shouted, trying to get up. That attempt though failed, as they had James chained to the chair.
"That's pretty good. Try that again, and you may even hurt yourself," said John. "Either way, both of you are looking at major time at Statesville."
"You are not getting it, aren't you?" shouted James. Britney just shook her head. John also could see that he was not going to get anywhere with this, so he called in two officers to take them down to their cells. As they left, Nora and Bo came walking in.
"Anything?" asked Bo.
"Just their crazy ranting," said John. "Have you heard anything from the hospital?"
"We just heard from Viki. Starr and Cole's son is okay, and was born with no problems at all," said Nora.
"I'm glad to hear that," said John. "That the last thing Starr and Cole need right now."
Back at the hospital, everyone had came in to see the new little one. Todd even had to admit that he looked pretty cool. Starr and Cole looked at each other and made a mental note to make sure that Grandpa Todd wouldn't teach Patrick his little ways.
After everyone had came to visit, Starr and Cole were left alone. Patrick was resting in the nursery, and Hope went home with Langston and Markko. Cole was lying right next to Starr on the couch. Starr giggled a little as she looked up at Cole.
"What?" he asked.
"Just admiring a person that I've grown so much to care about," said Starr. Cole just smiled as he kissed her forehead. "You really were my hero again today."
"Well, if you remembered, I wasn't the only one," said Cole. Starr knew that was true. She was filled in on Hope spotting Britney and pointing her out to everyone. Starr was really proud of her little girl for being so brave.
"I'm definitely going to reward her, huh?" said Starr.
"I think you already done that, by giving her a new brother," said Cole. Starr just giggled a little more.
Just then they heard a knock on the door. Both of them got up and Cole went to the door while Starr went back to the bed. Cole looked through the window before opening the door. "Its okay. Its Brody," he said to Starr as he opened the door to let him in.
"Brody, hey. Is this is about Britney and James?" asked Starr.
"Yes it is," said Brody. "I just wanted to let you know that they have been locked up and will await trial, and hopefully those two will be in Statesville for a long time."
Starr blew a sigh of relief. Cole walked up to her and wrapped his arm around his wife. "Thanks Brody."
"Hey, don't mention it," said Brody. "Where's the new addition?" he added, looking around.
"He's asleep in the nursery right now," said Cole. "I just can't wait to take him home finally."
"I can't wait either," said Starr.
"I don't blame you two," said Brody. "Well, I'll leave you guys alone." He then showed himself out.
"Well, at least we won't have to worry about those two again for a while," said Starr.
"I'm glad for that," said Cole. "Right now, there are a few things I would rather focus my attention on. Starr smiled, knowing 'who' her husband was talking about, as they both laid back down, this time on the bed.
The next day, everyone except Starr and Cole were in the courtroom as it was the hearing for James and Britney. It seems though that Britney was wrong about getting out of this. Her parents found out about what she had done, and they didn't even try to help her. In fact, when Britney tried to contact them for help, they just hung up on her after saying that she's not worth saving. So instead of having a big priced lawyer to try to help them get out of this, They had the old regular public defender, going against Nora.
"All rise!" called the bailiff. They did as the judge walked in. They were then given the word to be seated.
John was in the back row, right in the middle, to see how this would go, for he promised Cole and Starr to let them know what happened.
"This is the case of The People vs Britney Jennings and James Ford, who I see have a list of charges against them, Madam D.A." said the judge.
"Yes, your honor," said Nora. "The charges include escaping, aiding and abetting a fugitive, trespassing, two voluntary attempted murders, and two involuntary attempted murders, both of which were of Mrs. Thornhart and her child who was unborn at the time."
"And pardon for me for asking, but is the baby okay?" asked the judge.
"Yes, both Mother and her son are doing okay," said Nora.
"And what do your two clients have to say Mr. Regan?" the judge asked the public defender.
"I'll say something," said Britney, before Mr. Regan could speak. "That this is really ridiculous."
"Sit down, Ms. Jennings!" The judge ordered.
"Then why don't you dismiss this case, because its stupid!" Britney yelled out.
"No, the only thing that was stupid is you and your stupid plan for you getting Cole and me getting Starr!" yelled out James. Everyone went quiet. The only one who was smiling was John, who wasn't surprised.
"Is this admitting you are guilty, Mr. Ford?" asked the judge.
James though went silent, and then sat down. "Nice going," Britney whispered, sarcastically.
"That is all I want to hear. I want to review what was said in here, and we'll be back with this next week. In the meantime, I'm denying bail to both defendants." The judge then bang his gavel to signal the end of court.
"You are not getting away with this. You are just using the law to protect two people you think are special," Britney said, while the cops that had brought her and James over were putting them back in cuffs.
"If you think that, you are way over your head, because I don't think trying to kidnap someone to have for yourself is in the law,"' said Nora, as she headed out, along with John, who congratulated her.
It was also a big day at the hospital. Starr and Patrick were both cleared to finally go home. Starr was way too excited for this. Cole had already gotten the car seat for him which doubled as a carrier, and had in there to put Patrick in. And then he was helping Starr get everything back in her suitcase.
"I so can't wait to get back home. It is just way too quiet here," said Starr.
"I know what you mean, but it does have it advantages," Cole noted. Starr just smiled, but then got distracted when Cole's phone rang. He answered it and then smiled as he hung up.
"Who was that?" asked Starr.
"That was John. It seems like we may not being seeing James and Britney anytime soon. Apparently James couldn't keep his mouth shut they were trying to get us."
"Well, that serves them right," said Starr.
"Starr, Cole, I have someone for you," said Dr. Wright, who was walking in with Patrick . Starr's heart was like bouncing a million beats per second, and the same with Cole. Dr. Wright handed Patrick to Cole and he put him in the carrier. They had already signed the release papers and Starr was rearing to go.
They finally managed to get back home. They still had to pick up Hope from Langston and Markko's place, but they wanted to get the baby settled in first.
However, they weren't expecting what they got when they came in.
"Surprise!" said Hope, as they walked in. Starr and Cole were shocked as they saw a "Welcome Home sign pinned up in the front room, with Langston and Markko under it.
"You guys, you didn't have to do that," said Starr.
"We wanted to, Mommy," said Hope. "My family is getting bigger, and I wanted to celebrate."
"Yeah, it wouldn't hurt to celebrate a new life," said Langston. Markko even agreed with that.
Starr and Cole just looked at each other, and smiled. If there was one thing they were happy about, besides now having Patrick, or being together, is that they were part of a family that truly loved each other, They then walked in, and showed little Patrick his new room, with Hope trying to give him the grand tour.
Later on, during the middle of the night, Patrick started to cry out, needing someone. Starr went to him and picked him up, bouncing him around a little. "Shhh. Its okay, Patrick. Mommy's here now." She sat down in a small rocking chair, and let Patrick feed a little from her.
"Its awesome to see you like that," said Cole, who walked in. Starr looked at him and smiled.. Patrick had quickly calmed down and started feeding. Cole walked over to her. Starr then actually smiled a smile that could rival her husbands.
"You know, when I was pregnant with Hope, I was really scared, and thought I wouldn't be able to do something like this. But now, its something I can't even take my eyes off," said Starr.
"Well, we were pretty young at that time, Starr," said Cole. "But we're a little older now, and we can get through it, just like everything else we been through."
"Together, no matter what," said Starr. With having her husband, and their two kids she made with him, it was a amazing love that could never be broken, and that was something that neither Starr and Cole would never want to lose ever.
A/N: Hope you guys enjoyed the last chapter of this. I hate that I'm ending it now, but I got to end it somewhere, because I don't want it be a long dragged out story. In the meantime, you guys know what to do.
