Then the doctor rolled Alice away as the nurse came out with some smocks for Dana to put on. Tina thought it best if she went to the bathroom with Dana because she could sense Dana’s nervousness.

Dana was frantically taking off her clothes and throwing them aside as she put on her new set, Tina could not help but smile and worry a little about her nervous little friend, ” Baby you got to relax”.

Dana turned around completely dressed with tears in her eyes, ” Tina I am so scared”.

Tina walked over to Dana and engulfed her into a hug then pulled away to get a look at Dana, ” of course you’re scared, but everything’s gonna be fine. Alice will be fine, baby boy will be fine, and you will be fine.”

Dana nodded and before she could say anything else the nurse walked in, ” Mrs. Fairbanks?”

Dana wiped away her tears, ” is everything okay? Is Alice alright?”

The nurse smiled, ” everything is fine, Alice wasn’t quite as ahead as we thought she was, looks like it was a mix of the contractions and some heart burn, but right now she’s just resting, she’s in room 545, you can go wait with her until she’s ready”.

Dana and Tina walked into the room where Bette, Carmen and Shane were already, Alice was in the middle of a contraction as Shane and Bette held her hands counting it down. Dana walked over just as the contraction was fading and sat down next to Alice. Without a word the rest of the gang walked out of the room to give them some privacy.

Dana wiped some sweat away from Alice’s forehead, ” Hey”,

Alice smiled, ” Hey *****”.

Dana blushed then kissed Alice’s hand, ” I told youthe only ***** thing I see here is you”.

Alice smile slowly faded, ” Dana?”

Dana looked up and saw the change in her wife’s face, ” yes baby?”

Alice admitted, ” I’m scared Danewhat if something happens? What if I ***** it up?”

Dana scooted closer to Alice, ” baby, you could never do anything wrong. Everything’s gonna be fine. I promise I will be there every step through. I will NEVER leave your side”.
