A few hours later, the six of them were ready to leave the hospital and walk out into the pouring rain. Noah burst into the room and sighed, "Problem, paparazzi's outside. Someone must've seen you guys coming in and called the Press." Harry groaned and rubbed his forehead, "Is there a back way out of here?"
"Yes, I can show you if you like?" A midwife in the doorway said, smiling kindly, "The last thing a new born needs is to be pounced on by thirsty journalists."
Harry nodded and lead Anna and the others out the door, following the Midwife while Noah went to get the car to meet them outside. His parents left the way they came to try to drive away the paparazzi and get to their own car. Harry and Anna soon arrived at a white door and the Midwife pushed it open just as Noah pulled up outside. Harry nodded to the Midwife, "Thank you."
"Not a problem Mr Colburn." She smiled, closing the door behind them as Harry held his jacket over Anna's head while she tucked Nate tighter into the blanket to keep him warm. They made their way quickly to the car, making sure the rain avoided the fragile new born in Anna's arms. As soon as they were inside, Noah drove away, avoiding the paparazzi expertly and took the quickest route back to the house. Harry glanced over to Anna and his son, smiling as he watched Anna gently rock the small child in her arms, who had fallen asleep straight after he had been fed. Anna felt his stare and looked up from the corner of her eye, "What?" She whispered. Harry just shook his head and leaned across to kiss her cheek, still smiling like a fool. She giggled and looked back down at Nate when he began nuzzling her chest and whining. She sighed, "Hungry again? He was just fed literally five minutes ago." She rolled her eyes and covered herself with a blanket while she fed her baby. Harry shrugged his shoulders, "Small baby, big appetite."
"Really big appetite."
Noah laughed from the front, "If he's anything like Harry, it'll get worse as he grows up. Especially with your cooking."

Just as they pulled up, Bennet and Malcolm burst out the front door, "Finally!" They both sighed as Noah, Harry and Anna got out of the car with the bundle of blue blankets.
"How'd it go?" Bennet asked as Harry pulled out the bag they had packed from the trunk of the car.
Harry smiled, "Fine." He shrugged.
"Easy for you to say, you didn't have to push out a 7 pound baby." Anna grumbled while Nate's small hands were playing with the ends of her hair.
"So is it a boy or a girl?" Malcolm asked, smirking over at Bennett, who rolled his eyes.
"It's a boy." Harry said from the doorway as he opened it. Anna went in with him while Noah laughed as Malcolm's smirk fell and he handed 20 dollars to Bennett's outstretched hand, "Thank you kindly." He grinned triumphantly while Malcolm scowled at him, then glanced back to Anna, "Wait a second, you weren't wearing a ring when you left."
Harry laughed as a red blush covered Anna's cheeks, "Yeah, I asked her just a while after Nate was born... Seeing as someone started running their mouth and ruined the surprise for the future." Harry replied, glancing not so subtly at Noah who pointed at himself innocently, "Who me? Why I would never do such a thing!" He gasped dramatically, placing a hand over his heart, "Your words wound me my dear friend."
Anna stifled a giggle while Harry flipped Noah the bird.
"Well, congratulations anyway you two. Celebration tonight?" Malcolm asked but Anna shook her head, still swaying Nate in her arms, as he would start whimpering if she stopped, "You guys go ahead, I'm beat." She smiled.
"Ok, I'll see you upstairs in a minute." Harry smiled in return, kissing her forehead as she turned to go. When she was out of sight, he quickly turned to Bennett and Malcolm, "So, did you pick up on anything while we were away?"
"You were gone for over 10 hours Colburn, there's plenty for you to know." Bennett said, nudging Malcolm's shoulder roughly. He glared back at his colleague, "Why do I have to tell him?" He whispered.
"Because we agreed that the one who wins the baby's gender bet, won't have to." Bennett whispered back. Harry cleared his throat, "Tell me what?"
Malcolm gulped and looked up from his feet, "You may want to consider leaving Seattle. For a while."
"Why?" Harry asked with narrowing eyes. Malcolm rubbed his neck and looked back to Bennett for help, but he seemed just as nervous as he did. Knowing he was on his own with this one, Malcolm turned back to Harry to tell him the worst thing he could hear after such a wonderful, eventful day, "Trent knows everything. He knows where we are somehow... And he's coming."
