ASH'S POV:
My eyebrows furrowed at Star's words, 'I'm sorry Ash'. Why was she saying sorry, my eyes darted between Marko and Star. I could feel the discomfort radiating off of Alice, Reah and everyone else. Through gritted teeth my impatience was growing thin, "where is my baby?" Star wearily made her way towards me, hesitating to get closer to me. I stretched out my arms wanting to hold my child, all I could hear was the waves outside and everyones breathing come to a sudden halt. I gently cradled my baby looking down towards him. He wasn't making any noise as I gazed taking in his features.

I looked back towards Star, whose eyes were glassy and then to Marko who looked devastated. My eyebrows furrowed once more, why were they sad? I closed my eyes remembering about the page I read recently in my book, this was normal. I slowly placed a hand over our baby's face, stroking it's cheek softly.

MARKO'S POV:
I stood, staring at Ash, wondering what she was doing. She wasn't phased at all, I was confused and I was beginning to get annoyed. How is she not upset? How is she not angry? Star made it seem like our baby was gone and Ash didn't care. "Ash what are you doing? My voice was raised with frustration and my eyebrows were knitted together. Her eyes snapped towards me with an unreadable expression.

ASH'S POV:
The anger was evident in Marko's voice and I could hear his thoughts, as with everyone else. Just as I begun to look around to everyone a small noise radiated from the bundle in my arms, pulling my attention to it. I couldn't help but smile, grinning from ear to ear. I could hear everyones gasps but I didn't care. "How?" Marko questioned just above a whisper, "because he's special" I beamed. Everyone began to crowd around, all trying to get a peek. "I want cuddles first!" Paul yelled, who knew he was such a softy, "not if I get there first" Dwayne laughed. "Oh my god, he is so cute!" Reah cooed. Everyone was so excited and I couldn't help but smile with joy. I had Marko, Alice and Reah, my brothers, Star and the Lost boys surrounding me.

This is my family.

This is my life.

And I couldn't be happier.
