Brandon pulled his car into the parking garage at Westland Hospital. "Well, just an intern right now. But if I can get in on Dr. Drake's surgical team... it would be a dream come true. I've always wanted to specialize in surgery." |

"I'm sure you're going to go pretty far," Dillon told him. "Drake's an egomaniac and a lot of times you want to slap him, but he's the best in his field." |

"You just said that he was a good guy," Brandon laughed. "He is a brilliant surgeon." |

"Yeah, well, he's a good guy that'll wear on your nerves," Dillon told him. "Although Emily's done a great job about making him more tolerant." |

"Love's a powerful thing. Kind of like the love that you had for Lucas. And now, you have this miracle baby to pour that love into." |

"I'm sorry," Dillon told him. "All I've been talking about since we met is Lucas. It's just... he changed my life. You're probably sick about me talking about my dead boyfriend." |

"No, not at all. I think it shows that you're a great guy," Brandon smiled as they walked onto the obstetrics floor. "I'm going to go take care of what I need to do. Here's a badge for the NICU, just put on a lab coat and go meet your godson." |

Dillon headed to the neonatal ward and suited up. He walked inside and saw the tiny little baby in the incubator. "Hey, little guy," Dillon said as he smiled down at the child. "I'm your Godfather. That means I'm going to get to spoil you with gifts and money. You were named after a pretty special guy, Lucas, do you know that? He was compassionate... and caring... and he had a lot of love to give. And I think if he were still with us, you'd be able to experience that love too. But don't worry, you're going to get all the love in the world from the rest of us." |

A few minutes later, Brandon walked into the room and put his hand on Dillon's shoulder. "You're right, he's amazing. You want to put on some gloves and let him hold your fingers?" |

"Is- is he strong enough for that?" Dillon asked. "I'd love to." |

"Well, don't tell Patrick, but Emily told me she tried it the other day. Even though he doesn't open his eyes yet, he's a lot more alert than people realize," Brandon explained, handing Dillon a pair of gloves and opening up the holes on the side of the incubator. |

Dillon put the gloves on and put his hands inside, gently putting his finger inside the baby's tiny hand. He soon grabbed ahold and held on. "He's so amazing," Dillon said as he laughed. "I love him." |

"Yeah, it's funny how fast you can feel that for someone, especially a baby," Brandon smiled. |

"I can't help it," Dillon said as he looked up at Brandon. "I'm a sucker for cute guys." |

Brandon smiled. "Sometimes I come in here when things are too stressful in other parts of the hospital. It's nice to remember the good things in life." |

Dillon turned his attention back to Lucas. "He's so innocent. I wish I could spare him all the pain and suffering that the world has in store." |

"Who says he's going to experience any pain? He has close family and friends... sometimes life can pleasantly surprise you." |

"Because pain is a part of life," Dillon sadly replied. "No matter how much we try to hide from it, or shelter ourselves... pain always finds you. It found Lucas and it killed him." |

"Which had to be so hard... but Dillon, every medical journal says that this little Lucas should be dead. He's not... there's a reason he's here right now. I don't think he and Lucas share a name... I think a huge part of Lucas exists in your godson." |

"I think you're right," Dillon told him. "I was brought up to believe that everything happens for a reason. Maybe a piece of Lucas lives on in this baby. Maybe Lucas is the one giving this child the strength to beat the odds." |

Brandon nodded. "That's why Emily and Patrick wanted you to be close to him in his life. Lucas would have wanted that." |

Dillon smiled as he watched the little person hold onto his finger. A while later, he stood up and looked at Brandon. "Thanks you," Dillon told him. "I needed this." |

"No problem. We should go, though. Visiting hours are over. Where to next?" |

"Somewhere private," Dillon told him. "I just want to be alone with you. I want to forget about the rest of the world for just one night." |

"Well, your place is going to be crazy. My roommates might be home, but it's worth a try. Otherwise we could go take a walk or something," Brandon suggested. |
