Gage and Sydney arrived home; they walked out of the car. "Syd. Are you ok? You seemed a little pale," Gage went to her side.
"Yes, just tired, that's all. Thank god we have a few days off,"
"Yes, you're right. Hey, I didn't see Erika there with Trivette," he said.
"Trivette told me that she needed to go visit her dad, so she went to California, to be with him."
" I see," He opened the door to his wife, and he followed behind. She sat in the sofa across from Gage.
Sydney's phone beeped letting her know a message was waiting to be read. A smile formed in her lips, as she red the message.
"What?" Gage questioned Sydney as he saw the happiness in her eyes.
"Jules send a text saying she loved our gift,"
"Poor Jules. She was so tired, but happy. I can't wait for my niece to be born,"
"I know you can't wait, but you'll have to," she laughed as Gage sat next to her, and embraced her.
"You know….and I think that you'll be a great mother too," Sydney's smile erased from her lips, and her gaze focused on his.
"I don't know about that," she stood up, and walked around the living room until she stopped looking at some pictures of hers, and Gage together, and another one when both of the rangers were babies.
"Ok. Wait a minutes. What am I feeling here? Starts with an "E". There's some emotion here. You're fighting emotion. What is it?"
She had to tell Gage what was going on. So, she took a deep breath, and looked at Gage. "Gage, I… I lost my own mother when I was a little girl,""
Gage shocked by her confession just stared for a few minutes. "Didn't you talk to your mother a few days ago, that you girls will go shopping?"
"Well, that was my stepmother, we're close, my father married again, but my biological mother die when I was 12,"
"Honey, I'm so sorry, but why didn't you say anything?"
"I didn't want to worry you," She touched Gage's cheek. He kissed her forehead, and stood up walking to the kitchen for a drink, Sydney turn on Gage's laptop, she logged in to Gage's personal account, and saw al the emails that he had most of them were from work, new one started to come, again related to work. Gage came back with 2 glasses of wine.
"This is for you," he passed the glass to his wife.
"Nice way to start the evening, don't you think?" he nodded, and drank a little bit of wine.
"You got some e-mails while you were in the kitchen, are you going to check those or what?" her only response was Gage taking down the screen of the laptop until a soft "click" indicated the laptop was close.
"Ok, now. Where are you priorities Mr. Gage?" He laughed, and looked at his wife.
"My only priority right now is right here in front of me," she set the glass on the table, Gage's lean capturing her lips on his, he loved that man so much, but still she had a secret he needed to know.

The clock read 2 am, and Angela Walker couldn't stop crying. Alex tried to put her back to sleep, but it was impossible for her to do that, Angela was crying more, and more. Walker was asleep until he heard Angela's cries. His arm embrace Alex or at least he thought he did, but then he felt that his wife wasn't there. He stood up and walked to the nursery to see Alex on the rocking chair with his angel on her arms.
"Trouble sleeping?" the senior rangers asked.
"Yep. Today when Sydney left, and handed Angela to me, she couldn't stop crying, she slept when we were on our way to the ranch, but now she can't stop crying. She misses Sydney so much,"
"I think we'll know who will spoil her when she grows up," Alex laughed at Walker's comment, and gave Angela to her husband.
"I'll take it from here, go to sleep Alex," As he kissed Alex, his daughter was starting to stop crying, Walker talked to the baby in his arms, just as Alex went to bed, and fell asleep, as soon as her head touched the pillow.
