Twenty-eight weeks pregnant and on maternity leave? She was going to have some words with Patrick for making her take it much earlier than she even wanted to. Although, she knew she needed to be careful with these feelings because she knew that her boyfriend of months made her so happy. She just knew without a doubt that he better be the father of her baby or she wasn't sure what would happen to her. It still pained her that she had been raped, but with the sessions she had been attending, it was certainly helping how she had been feeling the last, several weeks ever since she told Patrick that he might not be the father of Emmett.
Right now, Patrick was at the store buying some Curél because of her itchy skin, and it annoyed the hell out of her because it was on her back – a place that she just could not reach without using something like a back scratcher to get that spot.
Sliding her hand over her swollen belly where her son, Emmett, was moving around, she smiled because in a few weeks, her son would be here. He was her miracle baby because she never once thought that she be pregnant, especially with the circumstances as well. For the longest time, she had thought that she was having a girl, and she was so happy that they were having a little boy. With Patrick's dimples, she knew without a doubt that he was it for her, and she was so excited the more she thought about it. Their little boy was going to be spoiled and just loved by every, single one of their family and friends.
"And I got you some Curél," Patrick said with a grin, as he walked inside of their home, and he looked over at her with a beaming smile on his face. "Kelly should be here in a few minutes to check up on you. I cannot wait to see how well that you are actually doing."
"Good. I am so happy that she agreed to continue to be my doctor," Robin said with a happy look on her face, feeling him kiss her, and she pulled away with a generous smile on her face.
"I think Nikolas, Lucky, Emily, and Elizabeth are coming with her but I am not sure. There was static at the end of Lucky's call but I think they are coming at the end of the week." Patrick said, as he took the Curél out, beginning to massage her feet that were out in the open, and he smiled at her. "You don't mind, do you?"
Robin laughed softly, as she shook her head, and she looked over at her boyfriend. "No, not at all. They will have to be patient with me, while Kelly does my exam in the bedroom. I just cannot believe how big I am getting."
Patrick frowned at her choice of words and he simply shook his head because he didn't think of his beautiful, pregnant girl of being big or anything like that.
"Robin," Patrick sighed, as he looked at her, and he cupped her cheek in his hand. "I want you to know that you're not big. You could never be big in my opinion. I think you're the most beautiful woman in my eyes, love. I mean, you're pregnant with our son – our beautiful miracle."
Feeling tears welt inside of her eyes, she blushed, as she looked over at him, and she grinned at him. "I still cannot believe how lucky I got to be with someone so amazing such as you, baby."
Patrick placed his hand on her belly, loving how their son kicked against his hand just the slightest, smiling over at her. With her being seven and a half months pregnant, he was going to make sure that he could show her just exactly how much he truly loved her.
Suddenly, there was a knock at the door, and Patrick smiled at his girlfriend. He kissed her quickly on the cheek before he got answered the door, smiling when he saw Kelly.
"Hi Kelly, thank you for coming down here," Robin said with a small smile on her face, as she leaned back against the couch that she was laying back against, and she sighed out of happiness to see how her progress was going right now in her pregnancy.
. . . . .
After Kelly did the exam, which consisted of checking the size of Robin's uterus to check the size of her child's rapidly growing, she also checked Robin's cervical dilation, and she printed off the sonogram pictures of their child. She knew that every appointment that the two wanted either videos or sonograms and she couldn't blame the two of them. She loved seeing Patrick and Robin together and she had been so thrilled when Robin wanted her to continue on being her doctor as well.
"You're all good. Do you want me to continue to see you through the rest of your pregnancy?" Kelly asked, as she was packing up everything with her assistant's help, smiling over at the two of them.
"I would really like that, Kelly," Robin said with a nod of her head, as she watched Patrick wipe the ultrasound gel from her belly with a towel, and she grinned over at him. "I mean, if it isn't out of your way, I would really appreciate it very much."
"It's really no problem, Robin. You're my patient and you're one of my really good friends," Kelly said, as her assistant began to carry the stuff outside the bedroom to the car, and she turned to her. "Even if you just want to talk, call me, sweetie. Talking to this man all day can't be healthy for you…"
Patrick pretended to be hurt by Kelly's words and he smiled, as he brushed a kiss against her cheek, and he stood up. "I am going to make you a plate."
When Patrick was out the room, Robin relaxed, and she turned to look over at Kelly with a nod. "I love him but sometimes it is nice to just talk to my girls after all. Thanks for coming out here, Kelly."
Kelly smiled and shrugged. "It's no problem but you better get some rest. You're going to need all the sleep you can get before this little one joins the two of you."
Robin smiled, as she nodded her head, and she watched Kelly leave with her medical bag. Before she knew it, she was out like a light, and the soft snoring began to leave her lips.

"Nikolas," Emily sighed, as she stroked her swollen belly where her child was slowly moving, and she turned to look at her fiancé. "I want to go see Jason and Sam's son. I haven't seen Jared in a few weeks."
Chuckling softly, Nikolas knew exactly how much Emily loved her brother, and she couldn't stop bringing up her nephew. After all, the little guy was adorable, and he was the spitting image of his father. Even Jason was trying to turn his life around, which was hard. After all, he had been a hit man to begin with too.
"I think we can do that but not until you rest, sweetheart. I want you to be well rested, as you know that little fellow loves you," Nikolas said softly, letting his hand stroke across her stomach where their daughter was kicking, and he smiled over at her. "I am only looking out for you, my love, and you know that I wouldn't do this if I didn't care about you. I just want you and our daughter to be all right."
"Arabela will be perfect in every, single way," Emily said with a grin on her face, as she looked over at him, and she bit down on her bottom lip. "Arabela Nikola Cassadine is our perfect angel, Emily just like her mother is."
"Don't try to flatter yourself," Emily laughed, as she laid her head against her fiancé's chest, smiling softly, as her eyes drooped where she was finally sleeping.
'It's about time," Nikolas thought, as he stroked Emily's hair, smiling softly where he too found himself falling fast asleep right beside her.
. . . . .
"Mmm, this is so nice."
Elizabeth was leaning back against her husband's chest in the warm, bubble bath where her seven and a half month pregnant stomach was protruding out of the water. Lucky had his hand on top of Elizabeth's that was on her belly where their son and daughter were kicking against her hand. She couldn't wait to tell everyone that they were expecting twins, though. Her life was so perfect and nothing could get any better than this very moment.
"I have to agree, baby. Being here with you is so good," Lucky whispered against her neck, kissing that sweet spot, and he smiled against her skin. "I am so happy, my love… so very happy."
"I am so happy too and I guess I am just in shock that you really forgave me after I cheated on you," Liz sighed, as she bit down on her bottom lip, feeling a few tears stroll down her face, and she inhaled a deep breath. "I… I am just so glad that we get another chance to be together."
Lucky hated it when she continued to bring up her one moment with Jason and he turned her face slightly towards him. "I hate it when you bring this up. It was my fault that you turned to Jason because of my drug use. I am the lucky one that got you back in my life. I never thought I would ever be drug free."
"But you are and you are the man that I fell in love with," Liz said softly, as she felt Lucky's lips press against hers, and she responded against his lips just as much as she needed him.

Robin had woken up when she heard Patrick's cell phone going off. She groaned, as she saw that he wasn't anywhere around, and she smiled when she saw the note on the bed that he would be back. As she picked up his cell phone from the bed, she saw that it was the hospital, and she hoped that he wouldn't have to go into GH since it was supposed to be their day off.
"Hello?"
"Hey Dr. Scorpio, is Dr. Drake available?" Dr. Fork asked, as he leaned back in his chair at his desk, and he was jotting some notes down on his calendar. "It's urgent that I speak with him as soon as possible."
"Um…" Robin then heard the front door open and she bit down on her bottom lip, pulling away from the cell phone. "Patrick, Dr. Ford's on the phone! He needs to talk to you!"
Patrick jogged to the bedroom and he kissed her cheek before he grabbed the phone. "Dr. Ford… yes, yes… oh my god… are you sure? Thank you."
Patrick placed his cell phone down and looked at her with serious eyes. "So… I got the results of my protocol, Robin."
Robin gasped, as she looked at him, and she bit her lip, wondering if he had HIV or not. She was praying that he didn't. "So… uh, what's the verdict?"
