//NIKKIS POV\\

I plastered a smile on my face as Elisa walked in, Declan trailing behind her. His eyes flashed with shy curiosity as he smiled at me.

Patrick stood up and greeted her with a hug and a kiss on the cheek. Then, he picked up Declan and messed up his hair.

Elisa waved at me with a small smile, causing me to smile a little wider and wave back.

"Elisa, this is Nikki." Patrick smiled, gesturing towards me. "Nikki, this is my wife, Elisa."

"Um.. hi." My voice shook like the rest of my body. I wasted the hospital bed to swallow me whole, because I'm an awkward little toad.

"Hello." She smiled. Her dark brown, curly hair was combed back behind her ear, and her eyes showed pure hope and acceptance.

"HI!" Declan giggled as Patrick put him down. He ran over to the side of the bed and shook my hand, making me wince, but giggle at the same time.

"Hi." I smiled at him. His hair was a lightish brown, like a mixture of both parents genes. His eyes were hazel like Patrick's, and God, he is adorable as anything!

"Someone likes you!" Patrick egged, featuring towards his son. He gave a chuckle as Declan observed me, trying to take in any & every detail.

"I guess." I shrugged, loosening up. I petted Declan's head, messing up his hair. He let out a little giggle, making Elisa smile.

"You're really good with him." She observed. She ran her hand through her hair, nodding to Patrick.

"I guess it's just natural." I shrugged as Declan climbed on top of the hospital bed with me. I gave him a shy smile as he smuggled into me. "Or He just really likes me."

"I think it's both." Elisa smiled. She glanced at Declan who was laying on my arm, making me wince slightly.

"What's your name again? Declan asked. His eyes were full of wonder and curiosity, like a cat watching a sparkler.

"I'm Nikki." I smiled, readjusting to where my arm didn't hurt as bad. "Well, technically I'm Nicole, but I hate my name. It just... doesn't suit me."

Elisa gave me a look of welcome. "I think you'll fit in just fine." She smiled
