Rose smiled widely as she cradled Chris in her arms, swaying gently and whispering to him, telling him he was just the cutest baby in the world.
Mike glanced at him, then looked away immediately. The look on his face said it all. "It'll happen," he said softly.

Maggie smiled, watching. "He's gonna love you."
Tyler nodded, lowering his voice so the girls couldn't here. "I know. It just shouldn't be this damn hard..."

"Oh, of course he will. Because I'm going to spoil him rotten," Rose said, still talking in baby-voice.
"Yeah..." he said with a sigh. "But you two, you're okay, right?"

Maggie laughed, then the nurse came in to tell them visiting hours were over and Mommy needed to feed Baby.
Tyler nodded. "Yeah. It's just...hard."

Rose handed Chris back to Maggie carefully, keeping her hand on his head the whole time. Then she walked back to Tyler, taking his hand, holding it tightly in hers.
Mike walked them to the door, sharing a knowing look with Tyler. "Thanks for coming so quickly, guys. Glad you got to meet him."

Tyler nodded, waving at Maggie, then patting Mike's arm. "Take care a' them, Mike. We'll be around tomorrow."
Maggie smiled, rocking Chris in her arms, then let the nurse show her how to breast feed.

Rose talked about how cute Chris was and how happy Maggie and Mike looked all the way down to the car. Then her phone rang. She picked it up, though she didn't recognize the number. After speaking for just a short while, she hung up, smiling. "That was the alterations shop. My bridesmaid's dress is ready!"
While Maggie learned how to feed the baby, Mike called everyone he could think of, starting with both of their parents, giving them the good news.

Tyler grinned. "D'ya look hot in it?" He drove home.
The nurse finally left them alone, Chris at Maggie's breast, and Maggie with tears in her eyes, smiling.

"You can be the judge of that, Tiger," Rose said, practically purring as she leaned across and kissed his jaw. "I'll model it for you later, and then you can unzip it with your teeth."
"Okay, okay! I'll send you a picture in a little bit, okay?" he chuckled, wondering just how many times he'd promised to send someone a picture. "All right, talk to you later. Bye." He hung up, then let out a sigh, making his way back to Maggie's hospital bed. "How's everyone holding up over here?"

He grinned big at that. "You're in an awfully good mood tonight."
Chris was quite content, eating away, and Maggie looked up, beaming. "I love you so much, Michael Bennett."

"I just love you is all," she explained. Truthfully, seeing baby Christopher renewed Rose's faith that they would have their own baby. And she didn't want to waste any time in making that happen. Once they got back to the apartment, Rose switched over to the driver's seat and went to go get her dress. She was back in about twenty minutes, holding the garment bag.
"Well, I love you so much, too, Maggie soon to be Bennett. But you didn't answer my question," he pointed out, kissing her forehead.

He was already in a pair of sweats and shirtless, sitting on the couch.
She laughed. "We're doing okay. He latched on pretty easy." She moved the baby, switching him to her other breast.

Rose narrowed her eyes playfully at him, studying him. "Have you been working out more than usual lately?" she inquired, unzipping the garment bag and starting to strip right there in the living room.
"Not even a day old, and already he's a genius," Mike muttered, smoothing down his son's dark hair with the palm of his hand.

He arched a brow at her, smirking. "Well, the doctor said I could hit the gym more, yeah."
She giggled, looking up at Mike. "He's just like you, I swear."

"Mm, thought so," Rose replied, biting her lip briefly before taking the dress out of the bag. ((You can describe what it looks like since it's your girl's wedding! lol))
Mike chuckled softly, kissing her forehead. "Now, Mags, if you keep telling me our perfect baby is just like me, I'm going to start getting the wrong impression..."
