"Don't you worry I'm a come at her different and dig deep into my dark side, just for her.." he smiled. "The tiny bit of love that shines through this heart is all yours..."
"You have a lot of love Keegan... especially for your kids... let's go and see Payton and sign her admission documents... I need her to be well for that baby girl.."
