"I still remember the day I had the twins," Cassidy said softly, watching her husband through the window of his hospital room. "It was the happiest I've ever seen him."
Luke squeezed her shoulders. "Tell me about it."
She hesitated, glancing over at him.
"I missed seventeen years of my brother's life," he said simply.
"He'd just come on leave the day before I went into labor. He was so nervous; I had to remind him how to get to the hospital!"
Luke chuckled. "That's Francis, alright."
"We still hadn't chosen a second name - we only found out two weeks before it was twins. Francis was so worried he wasn't ready to have twin babies.... I wasn't so sure either!" She paused. "He got lost in the hospital twice while I was there, and he was afraid to even touch Jazzy and Lydia. He can go into battle and wonder why I'm worrying over him, but he couldn't even hold a crying baby."
"He never was a good babysitter."
"By the time we brought the twins home, he was happier than I'd ever seen him. He buzzed around all day, making sure we were all comfortable. He had this huge grin on his face, like he'd won the lottery. He was so proud of his little girls." She wiped her eyes with her hand. "God...."
Francis jerked in his bed. Moments later, nurses swarmed around his bed, blocking him from sight.
"Sh, Cass, sh," Luke whispered, touching his sister-in-law's shaking shoulder. "He's okay."
"God, I hope so."
