Erica walked through the door with Jack behind her & Colton in her arms. She had been in the hospital for the past two days giving birth to her son, & now all she wanted was to be home with her family. She walked through the door, feeling like everything had changed, but as she sat down on the couch, she held her year old son on her lap while Jack brought the car seat inside.
She smiled down at her new son & then at Colton. "Hmm... we sure did get lucky with these two little boys," she glowed, before looking at Jack. "They're both perfect. Good job, Daddy," she winked, knowing that after two babies in the last two years, Jack deserved some credit.

"Yes we did get lucky..I cannot get over how perfect he is." Jack stared at his son as he began to get him out of his seat.
"Here..you take Carter and I will take Colton.." Jack traded children with her and bounced the year old on his lap. He watched as Erica looked at her son and held him and she smiled down at him. "I cannot believe how wonderful he is and Colton is going to be a good big brother!"

Erica happily took her infant as she watched Jack take their bigger son. She looked down at him with a grin on her face, & noticed how blue his eyes were. Just like Jack's, & just like Colton's. The boys both looked so much like their father, it was uncanny! "I agree... Colton is going to make the best big brother ever, right?" she cooed at the little man sitting on Jack's lap.
She was worried that Carter would pass Colton in development soon, but she was going to raise her son to protect his brother. She was worried that Carter might be born with a disability, too, but she felt blessed when the doctors informed her that her baby was perfectly healthy. "Does... does it feel different to you? Being home with two children of our own? Because three years ago, I never imagined any of this happening..." she admitted, looking at her husband.

"I never imagined that we would be having a baby together Erica and really even though I wanted you and I to have one I cannot believe it actually happened. And now we have two baby boys.." Jack was looking at his sons and smiling proudly.
"It feels wonderful to know that we have brought life into this world because of our love Erica. It really does. And I want to tell you that I have never been more happy. You are the best mother and our kids are so lucky to have you..and I am just as lucky as them to have you as my wife."

Erica nearly blushed at Jack's words. "Jackson, I'm the lucky one. I have you back in my life for good, I have my near-perfect family... with Josh being alive, Lily being home... the only thing missing is Reggie. We have two beautiful babies that I, for one, cannot get enough of!" she exclaimed, tickling Colton gently as he giggled.
She shook her head, before adding, "I... I just can't believe this is real sometimes. I'm afraid I'll wake up & it'll all be a dream. Having you back in my life, having Josh & Lily back home, having these two perfect additions to the family... I just never want the day to come when I wake up & it's all been a dream," Erica sighed, wondering if this was the post-partum depression that her doctor had warned her about.

"No baby that is never going to happen. This is all real. This is all your life Erica. I promise." Jack was leaning over to give his wife a kiss on her cheek. He held her for a minute in his arms.
"Have you..have you heard from any of the kids yet? Bianca told me Lily could stay with her for a few days but since I left a message for Greenlee I have not heard back from her. I really want them to meet our son Erica. I think it would be good for all of us."

Erica smiled, knowing it was real. She loved that Jack assured her it was, too. How adorable was he?!
She then looked at him, shaking her head sadly. "I called Reggie & Josh & Kendall at the hospital... I also called Greenlee, but I haven't heard back. Maybe Bianca could bring Lily back home & they could both see him? I'm sure the girls would like to see him, too. Especially Miranda... she was so excited about a new baby," Erica cooed, stroking her son's few strands of blond hair. He looked just like Jack... it was unreal.

"You know I am sure that they would both love to. I do think it is time for Colton to nap first however. Maybe we should try to put Carter down so that they will be on the same schedule."
"I know how hard it was with Colton at first Erica but I promise you that this time I am going to be there for you this time. I am not going to abandon you and I am so sorry that I did last time. That just was not fair of me. I love you so much and I am so sorry." Jack told Erica when he stood up to take Colton upstairs.

Erica nodded, agreeing that the boys being on the same schedule would be a marvelous idea. "I think that's one of the best suggestions I've heard in a while. C'mon... let's get them upstairs," she nodded, before Jack stopped her with his words.
She listened to him carefully, but smiled. "I know you're sorry, & I want you to know you don't have to apologize for that anymore. I love you, Jackson, & we'll just promise each other that no matter what happens, we'll always be there for our kids," Erica looked at him. She knew that she loved him & wanted to be with him, but if something were ever to happen to their relationship, she wanted Jack to be involved in the boys' lives.

"Okay I promise that I will be there for our boys and all of our kids and even you okay?"
"I love you Erica. I always will. Even if we decide that we are not right for each other one day and I am not sure what would split us up but if we do decide not to be together I will always be there for our kids. And even for you." Jack gave his wife a smile and then began going up stairs.

Erica nodded with a gentle grin & then followed Jackson up the stairs with her son in her arms. They decorated the nursery with a third crib, in between Stuart's & Colton's, so that Carter would have a room with the other children. It was temporary, especially since Liza was still staying with them, but for now it was perfect.
She laid her son down & when both boys were asleep, she went into her bedroom with Jack behind her. "All of this talk about splitting up is silly... I always want to be with you, Jack. I'm not going to let anyone or anything come between us," she said, wrapping her arms around his midsection, holding him tightly. She loved how safe she felt in his arms. "I love you."
