getting close to getting off of it tomorrow."
    "Oh
Gray, that's amazing." Her tiny arms wrapped tightly around my waist and I
melted into her.
    "Have
they brought your next dose of pain medication?"
    She
nodded into my chest and then placed a soft kiss to my neck. "I'm super sleepy."
    "Get
some rest, Button. I love you."
    "I
love you too, Gray."
    I
gently laid her back on the bed and made my way across the room to my cot. I
thought she was out cold, but then her voice broke through my loud overbearing
thoughts.
    "Daniel."
    "What
Bennett?" I was confused as to why she was saying my father's name.
    "I
think his name should be Daniel. It's fitting, you know?"
    I was
getting choked up, but pushed all emotion to the side to clearly answer her.
"It's perfect. Thank you, Bennett."
    "Anything
for you, my love."

    Day two
in this god forsaken place and I was already going stir crazy. I had been woken
up every four hours throughout the night; so needless to say, I got next to no
sleep. I was currently in the process of trying to pull myself up into a
sitting position, so I could go use the bathroom. It's a good thing Gray was
still sleeping or I'm pretty sure he would be taking a video of this. I have to
admit, I looked like a fish out of water.
    After
at least a good ten minutes had passed and I hadn't made any progress, I gave
up, flinging myself back onto the mattress below me. That's when I heard his
devious chuckle coming from the floor across from me.
    "Oh,
you think this is funny?" I couldn't help but break out in a fit of
laughter right along with him.
    "I
actually do. Would you like to see what you looked like?"
    "You
didn't." Damn that man.
    "Oh,
I did."
    "No
Gray, but if you don't hurry your smart ass up and get me out of this bed, I am
going to totally wet myself."
    "Wait,
don't do it yet. Let me get my camera ready." His laugh continued to
bounce off of every wall.
    "That's
gonna cost you." His laughter instantly stopped and he was up pulling a
shirt on over his head.
    My eyes
caught sight of his bare abdomen, and I couldn't help but take in the glorious
view in front of me.
    "See
something you like?"
    "Nope."
I winked. "Now help your dear old wife to the restroom, please."
    "Sure
thing."

    As I
emerged from the bathroom, I decided to fill Gray in on my plan. "We
should probably go see Daniel before Hannah and Theo come by with
Charlie."
    "Works
for me, I'm ready to go whenever you are."
    "I'm
ready now." I smiled as I made my way over to the wheelchair in our room.
I didn't really need it, but I wanted to err on the cautious side, just in
case.
    "Let's
go grandma."
    "Shut
up, I'm coming."
    "Oh,
are you now? And I didn't even have to touch you. I'm good."
    "Ha
ha, such a funny guy."
    "You
know you love it."
    "I
do." I tilted my head back, leaving an opening for him to kiss me. And
just as I knew he would, he planted a deep passionate kiss against my tender
lips.
    When we
got back to Daniel's side, we both gasped in shock. He was off of his
ventilator and breathing amazingly, all on his own. We both stared at each
other for a long time, just smiling. We both knew our little boy was a fighter,
but we certainly weren't expecting this.
    Gray
rolled me over to the side of the crib and I quickly ran my fingers down his
tiny arm. "He's perfect, Gray. I need to hold him. Will you go find a
nurse?"
    I
wasn't sure if Gray actually heard me, because I could still feel his presence,
but I could only assume that he did, because seconds later there was a nurse
bounding up to my side.
    "Is
Mom ready to finally hold her little boy?"
    "Absolutely."
I sat back and straightened my shirt. I was suddenly extremely nervous about
holding him. He still had a ton of wires and cords attached to him, but they
were all tightly wrapped up in the blanket that was swaddling him, so my worry
eased up a bit.
    I wish
I could explain the feeling, but I don't think words would do it justice. When
I had held Charlie for the first time, it
