Dakota felt tears of happiness roll down her face and the nurse walked in. "Well, Mrs. Montgomery, you can head home tomorrow morning."

Elijah was overjoyed. "Thank you" he tells the doctor gratefully. He reaches up to wipe her tears away

Dakota smiled at Elijah, the smile genuine

Elijah hugs her, "I love you"

"I love you too" She said, her voice soft but stronger than yesterday.

(What if Elijah surprises her with a vacation? The whole family just get a break from life lol)

Elijah smiles but then stops when Elijah waddles over and points at him. "oh ya! I forgot. I told Ethan that I would give the artwork he drew to you" he says searching for it in his bag before pulling it out and handing it to Dakota. It was a flower of sorts, though very messy and hard to tell given a toddle drew it (lol)

"Wow, they're so pretty, baby, thank you so much." She said, smiling at their son

Elijah chuckles, "you should have seen him after he got crayon all over his face and it was a pain to wash off" he says. "Anyways, I have a surprise for you once you're discharged" he says

"Oh, god, what is it now?" She teased, clearly herself again

"Vacation"
