"It's time for breakfast" Came a voice
I slowly opened my eyes, wiping away the annoying sleepys from my eyes.
"Thank you" I said sitting up
A tray lay in front of me with two pieces of golden toast and a small cup of orange juice.
Remembering last night my lit up as I looked around the room.
"Excuse me where is stefano?" I asked
"Who?" The nurse asked me
"Is that what your naming your son?" She asked again
What?
"No stefano is his father, he was here" I told her but how would she know since it wasn't her that let him in.
"I'm sorry but I don't know what your talking about. Eat up, you need your energy since your going home today" she smiled before walking out.
Home? Stefano?
I could swear he was here last night. He walked in holding our son. It couldn't have been just a dream could it?
It felt way to real
The sadness took over and I couldn't control the tear that slipped down my cheek.
I slid the tray away from me and cautiously picked up my little boy.
I cuddled him into my chest carefully, he was just so delicate, so precious.
"It's ok little fellow, mumma is always gonna be here and your father will always be here, in you. He will always be in your heart and I will make sure of it" I whispered quietly to him.

Two small knocks Came at the door.
"Come in" I answered
"I believe it's time to come home twinny" he smiled
"I can't wait" I smiled hoping he couldn't tell I had been crying.
"What's wrong?" He asked taking giants steps towards me.
"Nothing, just thinking. I'm okay" I reassured him.
"Could I hold my little nephew?" He asked me, I could see the excitement in his face.
"Of course you can" I smiled delicately passing him to leo.
"Let me just pack my stuff" I told him.
"It looks like you already have" he told me.
"What?" I questioned turning around.
There was my bag, rammed to the top with folded clothes. I didn't.... wait...
I opened the  bag to see a little folded note.

Hope this helped, everything Is packed I made sure. I will see you soon Stella, take care of our gorgeous creation. I love you so much
~S

Stefano! I knew he had been here. My dear stefano.
"Are you ready then?" Leo interrupted my thoughts
"Yeah let's go" I answered grabbing my bag.

"Welcome home!" Called angel
"Thank you hun" I smiled
"It's so good to have you back" said mum.
"It's good to be home, I'm going to take this one upstairs" I told them.
Leo helped carry my bag to my bedroom while I carried the baby in his little crib.
"Is everything okay? You look like you've seen a ghost" he asked me
Little did he know how true that was.
"I couldn't be better, it's all perfect" I told him.
"Good but I'm always here to talk" he replied
"Thank you but really I'm fine. I  will sort out my stuff and then I will meet you all down stairs" I explained
He nodded before walking out giving me some space.
I picked up my phone and pressed and few buttons until it began to dial.

Kimberly?
Marcus, I need to speak to you
What's it about?
I'm pretty sure you know, come here now
Alright, I will be there soon
Thank you

With that we hang up and began to sort all my stuff off.
It was weird now being able to see my feet again come to think about it, I went a few months having help putting my shoes on.
"But you were worth it" I told my little creation
I needed to think of a name for him, I thought I would have to make the decision on my own but now I would let stefano help me decide. I needed to wait to see him again.

I was pulled out of my thoughts by a knock at the door
"Come in" I told the person
"You wanted to speak?" Marcus asked
"So tell me about stefano" I told him
"What do you mean..?" He asked
"Don't play dumb, he's alive and you knew it this whole time didn't you" I accused him.
Suddenly I felt myself drift into a flash back
Flash back

"Marcus! Come quick please!" I Yelled
"Oh god" Came Marcus's voice
"He's dead" I cried squeezing his still hand
"Jasper! Get here now!" Yelled Marcus rushing over to stefano's side.
"Sir?... stefano.." jasper entered the room
"Take Kimberly out to the car, get her safe. I will deal with this... you know the routine" demanded Marcus
He didn't seem to worried at all and these were supposed to be friends
"Oh right... of course" replied jasper
He seemed to all of a sudden click on to something
"Lets go Kim" he told me holding my shoulders.
"I'm not leaving him" I cried getting out of his grip
"You need to leave now! He wants you to be save. Go! Jasper get her out of here you know this needs to happen fast" Yelled Marcus
All of a sudden I was over a hard shoulder being carried against my will out of the room.
I struggled all I could but he wouldn't let go and then stefano was out of sight, then the building was out of sight, then the street was out of sight and then I had no sight, only darkness, only memories

End of flash back

"He came to see you didn't he?" He asked
"Yes, last night at the hospital" I told him
"What was he thinking" Marcus said almost to himself.
"Maybe he was thinking about the amount of nights I cried think that he was dead, that I would never see him again and that our son would never meet his father. I can't believe you Knew this whole time. I need to see him... god I need him" I admitted
"Listen... I'm sure he will be in contact soon but you can't tell anyone that he's alive, not leo, angel, your mum absolutely no one. Not a soul okay.
He did this for a reason, we did this for a reason but once I told him that day after your birthday that you were pregnant he couldn't stay away but it was for the best. He love you too Kimberley which is why this all needs to stay quiet for now" Marcus had rushed out.

"If he thinks it's for the best then he's probably right. I trust him" I agreed

The only thing that was stuck in my mind now was that one day soon me and stefano and our little new born world could be a family. We could be together.
