A/N: Here is the big surprise... i think lol ic ant remember... oh yes there IS a big surprise! kinda oh wait yes lol

"Today is my last day here..." Andrew mumbled to Cal as they played with some Legos.

"Isn't that good? Don't you want to get out of this hell- er um... dump?" Cal asked him.

"Yea but... will I ever see you again?" He asked sadly.

"Of course!" Cal lied. He kenw that Andrew was only here on vacation and then happened to break his arm so they just stayed until it healed. "We are going to see eachother all the time..." He smiled and made a little pyramid.

.:.

"So... do you have family in town?" Gillian asked Cathy.

"No... we don't have any family." Cathy said sadly.

"What?"

"A family reunion... about 2 years ago." She said sadly.

"You don't have to-"

"I need to talk about it... I never have before and your a therapist." Gillian nodded and she continued. "We were all there. The whole family. Someone left a cardboard box on the stove and it was just a careless mistake, but the fire happened so fast. Everyone in the building... died. And it was everyone... all our cousins, aunts, uncles, grandparents... All dead."

"What about you, Andrew and Kyle?" Gillian asked.

"We left early for Andrew's soccer practice. Kyle had to go to work..." She whispered.

"That's horrible..." Gillian said, bringing her hands to her mouth.

"What is?" Cal asked, walking up to them. Gillian shook her head and waved him away. "Wow that's so interesting..." He mumbled sarcastically, walking back to Andrew.

.:.

"They haven't been going to work... so why should we?" Loker asked as he reluctantly got dressed.

"Because there is stuff to be done. They are at the hospital. We need to hold the fort." Torres said, picking out a pair of shoes.

"Like they would notice..." He said.

"They would." She warned. She walked downstairs and got some cereal.

"Whatever..." He ran after her and grabbed the Trix before she could. She punched him in the gut and he fell over. She caught the Trix before it hit the ground and giggled at his pain. "Damn girl..." He mumbled, getting off the ground.

.:.

"That's crazy!" Cathy said to a doctor madly. He said something and she walked over to Cal and Gillian.

"What's the problem?" Cal asked her worriedly.

"It's Andrew... Apparently his arm had a very deep but very small cut that nobody saw and now it is infected and spreading and they are doing what they can. He said hopefully they won't have to amputate it... how does that just happen?" She asked, tears streaming donw her face. Gillian nudged Cal and he wrapped her in a hug and slightly rocked back and forth.

"When can we go see him?" Gillian asked, laying her hand on Cathy's back.

"A couple hours... they are running tests and stuff..." She whispered. She pulled away from Cal and smiled. She wiped away her tears and sat back down. She pulled out her phone and urgently told someone to come. They shrugged and talked to her to relax her. "Kyle!" She yelled as a man ran in and gave her a hug. "How did you get here so fast?"

"Speeding." He smiled and kissed her on the lips. Cal and Gillian shared a small smile, remembering when Gillian had told Cal that she sped to find him.

"I'm sorry... this is my husband, Kyle." Cathy said, introducing them.

"Hello I am Cal Lightman." Cal said, sticking out his hand.

"And I am Gillian Foster." She said, shaking his hand as well.

"Whenever I have phone time with Andrew he won't shutup about you Cal."

"Phone time?" Cal asked.

"Yes... I do not live at our house during the week... I am on post... I'm in the military... my job requires me to live in the base... and I have phone time with my family every night." Kyle explained.

"Oh." Cal said, still confused. "I hope he doesn't say anything bad." Cal said with a chuckle.

"Apperently a knight attacked you? When he first saw you you had cuts? I don't know... he has a big imagination..." Kyle said.

"That's pretty much it... but I was attacked by rocks... when I was fishing with my girlfriend." Cal said, he took Gillian's hand and pulled her close to his body.

"Well Andrew seems to really like you so you are welcome to come see him with us." Kyle said, grabbing Cathy's hand and dragging her to Andrews room. "Hey bubba." Kyle said, kissing Andrew on the head.

"Hi dad!" He said excitedly hugging him.

"How are ya doing?"

"My arm hurts..." Andrew said in a little voice. He looked at his arm where the infection was obvious. The cast had been hiding it.

"Well that's alright... you're a trooper." Kyle said, giving him a slight nuggie.

"Like you!" Andrew said. His attention turned to Cal and he waved. "Hi!"

"What's up little man?" Cal asked with a big smile. He shoved his hands far into his pockets and slowly inched up towards the hospital bed.

"I hope I can get out of the hopital soon..." He whispered.

"Aw you will... this place will patch you up and you will be out in no time." Cal promised.

Andrew's smile seemed to get bigger and he whispered. "Are you doing better?"

"Oh yea... I'm fine... my cuts are almost gone." Cal said happily.

"Nice..." Andrew said, his eyes begging to droop.

"You should get some sleep..." Cal said, backing away from the beds. They all walked out into the hallway and Kyle asked them a question.

"Can you tow just hang around in there just in case he wakes up? We are going to go home and grab a few of his favorite books."

"Oh yeah, of course." Gillian said.

"Hey dad." Emily said, walking into the hospital.

"Oh hey... we can go in about an hour. These are Andrew's parents... this is my daughter Emily." Cal said, introducing them.

"Hi." Emily said with a big smile. "Are you guys going to be in there?" Emily asked, pointing to Andrew's room. They nodded and she said, "I am going to go get some food... I am starving and havent eaten sicne breakfast." She said. Cal agreed and she ran off.

"Alright... we will be back in no time... thanks!" Cathy said, walking away with Kyle.

Cal walked into the room and looked at the small Andrew sleeping in the bed. He smiled and sat in a hard chair beside the bed, son falling asleep himself.

.:.

Emily walked past the kitchen sneakily and found the lounge. She walked in and looked around. "Hey!" Gabe said, running up to her. He gave her a small hug and said, "I thought you weren't coming today."

"Yeah well, my dad ended up needing to stay and babysit or whatever so I told him I was coming to get some food." She said, happily holding his hand.

"Brilliant." He smiled and dragged her out of the lounge. They were soon on the roof and watching the beautiful sunset.

"Oh my gosh!" Emily said, "It's so beautiful!" She laid down on the ground next to him and laid her head on his chest. He wrapped an arm around her shoulders and they silently watched the sun fall into the horizon.

.:.

"Cal I need to talk to you." Gillian said, interupting his conversation with Andrew.

"Wait a sec Gill..." He said, laughing at what Andrew was doing.

"Now Cal." She said sternly.

"Alright!" He said defensively. He jumped up and patted Andrew's stomache. "Whats up?"

"Cal! This is horrible... what are we going to do? He has no family! How are we going to tell him!" She asked worriedly pacing in the hallway.

"Hey hey hey!" He said. He grabbed her and pulled her into his chest. "What are you talking about?"

"Andrews parents! They got in a car crash and died instantly!" She yelled at him.

"What?" He looked at some police in the waiting room and they nodded. "What? No family?"

"That's what Cathy was telling me earlier today... they all died in a fire at a family reunion..." She mumbled. A cop walked past her and into Andrew's room. "No wait!"

"Ma'am... I need to tell him." The cop walked past her and began explaining everything to Andrew. Cal and Gillian silently watched from the doorway. Andrew sat there, unbelieving. "Sorry." The cop said. He then turned and left Andrew alone in the room.

Cal nudged Gillian and she reluctantly walked in. Andrew didn't say anything, he just hugged her and cried. Cal sighed. "What are the odds?" He asked himself.

.:.

The sun was now down and she was just talking to Gabe quietly. "No... he is protective but we can keep it a secret for now." Emily told him.

"I don't want it to be a secret."

"Do you want my dad to eat you alive? We tell him when he is in a good mood and around Gillian." She said. "He won't freak out in front of her."

"I already told him we were together though."

"Yeah but he thinks it was a one time thing... that it's over now." Emily said to him. He shurgged and jumped up.

"It's late and I bet he is searching for you." He helped Emily up and they walked abck into the hospital.

.:.

After Andrew had calmed down for a bit Cal nervoulsy walked in, his hands practically tearing the edges of his pockets, trying to get deeper. "Hey bud..." Cal whispered, sitting on the cahir next to Andrew.

"Can I ask you something?" Andrew asked in his shy innocent voice. Cal stared at his little body. His little fragile body. He was so young.

"Anything." Cal said surely.

"Will you be my daddy?"
