Nodding, gulping back any spitfire he wanted to shoot at Gabby about the affair he pushed it far from his thoughts. The fiery touch of bella gone with them as well. His daughter's were ok...his youngest was alive. "What are we naming her?" He asked, tears still slipping down his cheeks. The weakness he felt then was overwhelming.
Looking into Gabriella's eyes he knew she was reading him, figuring what was on his mind. Now he wondered if she knew what she'd done? Did she know she'd ripped him apart? "Let's go see her."

Pursing her lips she sniffed slightly, though there were still no tears on her cheeks. Nodding at Delilah, she swung her legs over the bed, trying to hide the grimaces she gave at the pain that shot through her, her daughter was more important. Wobbling slightly as she rose to her feet, she squeezed her eyes together, glad she wasn't facing Corbin and he couldn't see. Gathering herself she opened them and met Delilah, allowing the woman to see the pain inside her.
Straightening up she walked the length of the bed with stiff strides, it was easier to concentrate on the physical pain than the mental. "Her name is Emmaline." It was a statement, there was no room for debate.

"Emmaline..." He whispered. The name dripping off his lips. It was familiar and yet not so...it was surprising to him. Walking over to Gabby he took her waist to him, much to whatever objections he expected he was refusing to let go. He needed her right now and she needed him. "Emmaline Amistee." He said. Putting his sense in.

As he took her waist she didn't flinch, but she didn't melt against him like she usually would have, it would be too painful for her to do it, think everything was ok again and then have him leave her for Bellatrix. Reclining her head against his head slightly she nodded, the name sounded fine to her, he should have a say really anyway, it was just her pride before, showing he couldn't change Emmaline. "Let's go," her voice was once again thick with unshed tears but she couldn't bear to look at him.

Squeezing her uninjured side lightly Corbin pressed his lips to her forhead. Once again not caring if she wanted him to or not. This was one of those rough patches. No relationship was perfect. He missed the fire of Bellatrix. But could he abandon another woman when he wasn't sure which way was up?
They reached the child ward and lookeed through the glass, staring at his daughter amde his entire facade of strength fall, racking sobs hit him like a ton of bricks.

Brushing off the kiss for the same reason she didn't melt in his arms, she allowed him to lead her, everything she passed was familiar but a blur as tears sprang to his eyes. "You're going to leave me aren't you?" It was very straight forward and blunt but she needed to know that answer.
When her daughter came into view she pressed her face and hand against the cool glass, tears flowing freely down her smooth cheeks. Her hand clutched the glass as if she could feel the little girl. Hearing Corbin's sobs she glanced at him slowly, but she was in no need to comfort anyone and her mind turned to the son she would never meet.

Bella hadn't given a second thought to the fact that she had to walk through the baby ward to get back to the waiting room from The Spell Damage ward. She saw Gabriella and Corbin pouring over their new born from outside the glass. She smiled. If she had been a stranger, she would have looked on them as two happy new parents. Maybe they could be still.

Looking up with tears streaking his face Corbin gazed at Bella and shook his head, hoping she knew how much he cared, how she was his best friend no matter what anyone said. Her and Narcissa. Gabby was the woman he would stay with, his three daughters' teh light of his world.
Sliding down the wall Corbin choked on his sobs, hoping he could stop them soon. "No I'm not." He said through them to Gabby, though he was unsure she heard as she was sobbing as well.

Hatred clenched her insides as she turned and saw Bellatrix, and she actually moved as if to grab her wand, it was unfortunate, or possibly fortunate that there were no suitable pockets for it in hospital robes. Once again tears were gone, it was as if she could turn them on and off at will, though the truth was probably because she was so volatile of late.
Turning towards them she watched with slightly cold eyes as Corbin slid down the wall, she wanted more than anything to believe him, but it was hard. Maybe she had misheard him through the sobs, closing her eyes briefly before looking at her daughter she once again cried. Cried for those they had lost, for her marriage, for her pain and for the fact that she would never see her son grow old. Gazing at the tiny version of herself she almost smiled.

Bella stood frozen on the spot. She didn't know what to make of Corbin shaking his head, but when he said, "No, I'm not." She could only guess. Tears stung her eyes, so unlike any she had shed throughout the day. She knew he would never give up Gabby for her. She wouldn't have asked it. What had been between them was no more, and she had long since accepted it. Just, their time at Headquarters had given her false hope. And now she felt like a fool. Not a jealous fool, just foolish. Some things never changed. Nodding, she turned away from them. She felt like she was going to be sick. Moving quickly down the hall, she stepped into an elevator, not knowing where it would take her. Anywhere was better than here at the moment.

Corbin felt as if he was going to be sick. How was he in love with two women? Two women that hated each other. How had his son died? How had any of this happened. Realizing how hostile Gabby was he stood, whiped his tears and put a hand on each side of her face."You cheated on me Gabby, you broke my heart. Emotional or Sex I don't f*cking care." He began. "I love two women, that's f*cking crazy right? But when I'm with her i miss parts of youa nd when I'm with you I miss parts of her. So I'm giving up both..." He said. Realizing he contradicted what he'd said earlier. He didn't care. His daughter's would be what mattered most now.

Flinching away from his grip, she backed away, just because she knew what was coming didn't mean she was going to like it. A snarl curled her lips but no words left them. Clutching her hospital gown around her she threw one more glance at the sleeping baby before turning away from him, at least now he couldn't see the distraught expression on her face. "You don't love her, it's infatuation, I hope you realise that," maybe if she hadn't been so hurt she would have marches straight down the corridor, but after a few steps she had to lean against the wall, letting a sob escape from her lips.

Cissy took a deep breath and passed around the corner to the glass window the couple were standing in front of. Her original reason for coming was to see her sister, she knew Bella needed her right now. But seeing Corbin and Gabby made her want to stay, to try and help... She wanted to talk to Corbin... to Gabby... and to her sister.

Walking forward Corbin wrapped his arms around her denying body. Knowing she wasn't strong enough to fight he hugged her. Taking in her scent, everything he loved. But how could someone he loved so much be trying to hurt him with words? He had loved Bella, she'd done the same thing as Gabby...they'd both cheated. He wasn't worthy of either. "You don't know much about male emotions than." He said quietly, walking her to her room. Seeing Narcissa he held up a finger, saying wait there. She always did.

Cissy's mouth dropped a bit, in shock of the whole thing. She gave Corbin a nod and leaned against the wall, letting her pregnant body slide to the bottom.
