Max wrapped his arms back around Naomi again, holding her close. He frowned then, when Naomi mentioned Shane. He looked over to the doorway. "Yeah...he didn't really look to happy during the time he was here." he said, glancing back to Naomi. "Has he talked to you at all, recently? Like, if anything was bugging him or something? He hasn't said anything to me....but it just seems like there is."
"Daddy, he so smaaaall." Brooklyn squealed, her nose against the glass of the sleeping baby. "I know, Brooky, he is, huh?" Brooklyn nodded, her eyes still focused on her baby cousin. "I wanna hold his hand. Can I?" she looked up at David with those big blue eyes of hers, that David almost could never resist. But he didn't fall for them this time. "Not now, Brooky. Not when he's in there." he explained, Brooklyn giving him a pout, "When he goes home though, we'll be sure to visit them, and you'll be able to play with him then, alright?" Brooklyn's frowned changed back to a soft, subtle smile. "Awe, otay." And she looked back at the baby again. "Daddy...?" she asked again, "Why is he so tiny?" David frowned again, not really sure how to explain it to her. "Well, Brooklyn. He was just born a little too early. He wasn't suppose to be born yet."

Naomi gave a small shake of her head. "No, but this same thing happened with his last girlfriend a few years ago. She went into premature labor, but neither her or the baby made it. I think Shane is worried the same thing will happen to me..."

Max furrowed his eyebrows down at her. "Really?" he glanced back over to the empty doorframe again. "Huh, no wonder he's been so quiet today, lately..." he sighed, looking down then up at Naomi again. "Um..if you don't mind me asking....how long ago was that incidence?"
In the other room then, one of the nurses came up to the guests. "I'm sorry for interrupting but, we're gonna have to ask you to leave the room now. We have some tests we'd like to run on the baby now." "Oh, sure, of course." was all David had to say, before he carried Brooklyn back out of the room, and the nurse started her way over to Shane next, noticing he was still there sitting in a chair. "Sir..." she started, figuring he overheard telling the other two to leave before.

"Yeah, yeah I heard ya." Shane grumbled, standing from his seat to head towards the door. Before he left though, he turned back to the nurse. "Hey, uh...he'll be okay...right?"
Naomi bit her lip as she tried to think. "Um, he was 16 so...three years ago? It still bothers him you know? Like, he has nightmares sometimes, and he's always blamed himself. I try to tell him it's not his fault, but he doesn't listen to me."

The nurse turned back around just when Shane spoke to her again. "Oh, of course, honey. We've already tested out that he's perfectly healthy. We just want to double and triple check. You can never be too sure, after all."
Max furrowed his brows in though. "Hm...must of been right before we met..wasn't he sixteen when we all met, you know, at that party?" he could of swore he did, but he didn't remember for the life of him that Shane had a girlfriend, let alone a child which none of them had made it. That's when David crept back in the room with Brooklyn on his shoulders. "Hey, bro? Brook and I are gonna head back home. You guys gonna be alright?" "Yeah, we're good. Thanks for coming, Dav." David nodded, Brooklyn gave a wave over to her uncle and aunt, and they left.

Naomi shook her head lightly. "No, I was 16. He was 17, so it was about a year before he met you. He'd...learned to deal with it by then." She frowned a bit at the memory. She hadn't liked the way Shane dealt with things, she still didn't. Because it usually involved him getting hurt. Naomi glanced up when David and Brooklyn came in to say their goodbyes, Shane walking in as they were leaving. "Are you leaving too?" She asked softly. Shane shook his head, sinking into a chair. "No, not yet..."

"Oh, I see." Max replied, nodding his head understandingly. He quickly moved his gaze back to the door again after his brother and niece just left to see Shane coming through next and making his way back to the chair across from them. Max managed to send Shane a little friendly smile over to him. "So what do you think of your new little nephew?" he asked him.

Shane glanced up when Max began speaking to him, a frown on his face. "He's small." He muttered before lowering his head again. "Shane..." Naomi muttered, frowning a bit. Shane stood then, going over to sit on the bed next to Naomi. He reached out to brush her bangs back before kissing her forehead. "I'm gonna go find some food. I'll be back later." And with that he stood and walked out of the room, hands in his back pocket. Naomi sighed and pressed herself close to Max, closing her eyes. She was still exhausted, this had been a very long day for her.
((ummmm...so I feel like this thread is slooowly coming to an end, lol))
