Summary: Isabel decides to leave Michael and she is
not alone...
PLEASE give feedback of ANY kind! Thanks!:)


********

Isabel came out of the bathroom and sat on her bed
looking at the stick in her hand. Pregnant! She was
pregnant! This is what she and Michael had been hoping
for. It was a little sooner than expected, but good
things always came unexpectedly. She thought back over
the past several months, and smiled when she recalled
how their relationship had developed.


Months earlier...

Michael sat on Max's bed and listened as Max went on
and on about the dance that he and Liz were going to
at school. Ever since Max had found out that Liz and
Kyle had not slept together, Max had been worse than
ever before about being a love sick puupy.
"So I need to get Liz some really great flowers to go
with her dress. She said it is deep purple with short
sleeves. Do you think pale lavender or white flowers
would be best?", asked Max looking towards Michael and
Isabel.
Michael looked up at the ceiling and let out a deep
breath."I think Max that I really don't give a damn.
Who the hell cares what kind of flowers if any that
you give Liz. This whole dance thing is lame and I
can't believe you are going for it."
Isabel looked at Michael and felt a stab of pain at
that. She wanted to go to the dance, and she wanted to
go with Michael, but his words just left her feeling
unsure. She had begun to have feelings for him after
the dreams and then finding out she wasn't pregnant
with his baby. It had started her thinking about what
if. She didn't believe in destiny, but she had always
cared for Michael and the situation had shed a whole
new light on their relationship. She knew he didn't
feel the same. Sure he had been supportive when they
thought she was pregnant, but he had run back to Maria
immediately when Max had told them the truth.
She had watched them together and had felt like dying
everytime that Michael was with Maria or spoke about
her. She had even picked out a Christmas gift for him
to give her. That had just about done her in. But then
Maria had started going out with Brody and Michael was
a loner again. His cynicism worse than ever.
"You know Michael, an attitude like that lost Maria to
you",replied Max giving Michael a pitying glance.
Isabel glanced at Michael and then turned to Max and
said,"I think you should get her the pale lavender.
Liz will look great and she will be glad that you put
such thought into it."
Max smiled his greatfulness to her."I knew I could
count on you to help me out Is. Thanks. I'm going to
go now and order them." Max grabbed his jacket and
left.
"Well doesn't that just touch your heart.", said
Michael sarcasticly.
"Michael, Max is in love with Liz and they will
probably spend their life together. Can't you just be
supportive of him? Just because you messed up your
relationship with Maria, doesn't mean that you have to
make everyone else miserable.", lectured Isabel.
Michael stared at her and shook his head. "You're just
mad because no one asked you. Thought Alex might
didn't you? Well you led him on and he finally found
someone else. Take your own advise and leave me
alone.", retorted Michael.
Isabel bristled at that. "Let me tell you something
Michael Guerin, Alex was always just a friend. I tried
to turn it into something more when we had the dreams.
I realized to late what a mistake that was, using him
like that. I'm glad he has someone. As for no one
asking me....well I turned down 4 guys. I just didn't
want to go with them. I had someone else I wanted to
go with...but he didn't ask me...doesn't even want to
go.", she finished sadly.
Michael watched her and was suprised at her admission.
What guy wouldn't want to take Isabel Evans anywhere?
He wished that she felt for him the way he felt for
her. When Max had told them she wasn't pregnant he had
been devastated. She seemed relieved. He had turned to
Maria and later realized that had been wrong. She had
been a friend that he had used much like Isabel had
used Alex. 
Isabel looked at Michael and said in her most
persuasive voice,"Michael, would you take me to the
dance? You know, as a friend." Surely he would not
tell her no. 
Michael's heart jumped in his chest. He let his eyes
roam Isabel's face and shook his head. "Isabel, you
know I hate dances. You have to dress in a monkey
suit, fork over money you don't have for an expensive
dinner and flowers, and all for what? If a guy is
lucky he will get him some tail. Besides, I hate to
dance and refuse to do it." 
Isabel let her lip tremble. She just had to get him to
go."Please Michael! You still owe me for saving your
ass with Maria's gift. I want payback now."
Michael rubbed his eyes and glared at her. He put his
hands on his hips and shook his head. "You know that
is not right. Maria and I are not together and I still
have to pay for a gift I didn't get back." 
"Gifts are gifts Michael. Not things you expect back
when things don't go your way.", said Isabel in
frustration.
"Fine! Fine! I will take you to the damn dance. But
don't expect me to wear a monky suit, and don't expect
dinner and flowers, AND especially don't expect me to
dance!", said Michael emphatically.
Isabel rolled her eyes, but secretly felt relieved.
"Fine! Just show up and be on time please!"
Michael gave her a smirk and climbed out of Max's
window. What the hell had he agreed too? He was going
on a date with Isabel and he was scared to death.
Maybe, just maybe he could get her to change her mind
about him. Maybe he could win her over. He had to
plan.

"Isabel, I'm leaving. Are you sure Michael is going to
show up? You could go with Liz and me.", said Max.
Isabel shook her head. "He said he would do this and I
think he will. Besides, if he doesn't I really don't
want to go with my brother and his girl." 
Max walked over to her and gave her a hug and a kiss
on her forhead."Okay, just don't be to disappointed if
he doesn't show. Come and join us if you want." He
left to pick up Liz.
Isabel sat on the sofa and waited. Michael had 5 more
minutes before he was considered late. Pleaselet him
show. I don't care what he wears, or if he dances,
just let him show up!
The door bell rang.
Isabel nervously got up and smoothed her dress as she
walked to the door. Taking a deep breath, she opened
the door and held back a gasp.
Michael stood at the door in a black suit and white
T-shirt that stood out against his tan skin. His hair
had been slicked back and the held a box of flowers in
his hands. He was nervous.
"UUmm here these are for you.", he said as he handed
her the flowers. Purple roses. He had remembered her
favorite flowers. 
"Thank you Michael. Come on in.", said Isabel as she
moved aside to let him in.
He thought she looked incredibly beautiful. She had on
a white sheath dress with a black shawl. Her hair hung
in waves down her back the way he liked it. And she
smelled like heaven. 
"Uh, we need to go now if we are going to make our
dinner reservations.", Michael said.
Isabel turned suprised. "Your taking me to dinner?"
"Well, yeah. You are hungry aren't you?"
She felt like she couldn't eat a bite, but she nodded
her head.
"Okay, then let's roll".
They went outside and he stopped. 
"What's wrong Michael?", Isabel asked.
Michael walked back and forth and clinched his fists.
Then he pointed at the street. "I can't take you to a
dance on a motor cycle."
Isabel looked at his bike and a slow grin spread on
her face. "Well I think it is great. My dress is
straight so it won't blow up. This will be fun!", and
she grabbed a helmet and climbed on the bike.
Michael stared at her in opened mouth amazement and
then joined her. She hooked her arms around his waist
and put her head on his back. Both were happy as
clams.

At dinner in the towns most expensive resturaunt,
Michael had held her chair and used his best manners.
Conversation had been stilted , but that had been
okay.
Isabel ate enough that she felt like Michael's money
wouldn't be wasted, and Michael forced himself to eat
even though he thought he would choke.
They arrived at the dance and brought stares from just
about everyone. Isabel Evans and Michael Guerin? He
cleaned up nice. She looked hot. They complimented
each other. Max couldn't believe that Michael was
doing this for Isabel. What did she have over him?
Maria and Brody were there as well ,as was Alex and
his girlfriend. They couldn't believe that Isabel and
Michael were together at a dance. For a minute Maria
and Alex felt a stab of pain. Michael would never have
done this for her. Isabel was gorgeous, but she had
never really loved Alex in the way he wanted.

Max and Liz walked up to Michael and Isabel and
greeted them as they had their picture taken.
"Isabel, Michael, come and sit with us.", said Liz.
The two couples joined the other two at the table.
Tess and Kyle were already on the dance floor.
"You guys look really nice", said Maria as she looked
at them.
Isabel and Michael looked Maria's way ,and seeing that
she was okay with them being there together, they
smiled.
"Let's dance.", said Alex grabbing his dates hand.
Everyone followed except Michael and Isabel. 
He held her chair out for her and she sat down.
They watched the others for awhile and Isabel tapped
her toes to the music. 
Michael watched Isabel and her toe tapping and then he
took a deep breath and asked,"Isabel, you want to
dance?"
Isabel's foot stopped shaking and she turned to look
at him. "We don't have to Michael. I mean I know you
don't like too."
Michael stood up and held out his hand to her. She put
her hand in his and he led her out to the dance floor
as a slow song began. He pulled her into his arms and
held her close. His breath was warm on her neck and
made her shiver. He thought she was cold and held her
tighter. She closed her eyes and took in the moment
trying to imprint it on her mind. 
When the song ended he led her back to the table.
The others followed and Alex couldn't resist
teasing,"Michael, smoothe moves man. didn't think you
had it in you."
"Bite me Alex", came Michael's retort as he glanced at
Alex.
They spent the evening dancing only to the slow songs
before finally deciding to leave.
"Michael, we can leave if you want. The dance is
almost over and you've been a great sport about
bringing me."
Michael led her outside and they climbed on his bike.
"Want to go for a ride...or to my place?", asked
Michael.
Isabel was thrilled. She nodded and said, "Your
place."


Michael let them in and went to get them cold drinks.
Isabel sat on the couch. She slowly siped the drink
that Michael brought her. 
"Michael, this evening has been amazing. More than I
ever hoped for. Thank you." And she leaned over and
kissed him on the lips.
Michael was suprised , but he took advavntage of the
situation and kissed her back. They leaned back and
looked into each others eyes before leaning in for a
deeper kiss. Isabel's glass fell to the floor
unnoticed. Michael used his tongue to pry open her
willing mouth and thrust his tongue inside. Isabel
felt like she was being swallowed whole and loved it.
They pulled back and took deep breaths before finally
looking at each other. "Wow!", breathed out Michael
raggedly, rubbing his head.
Isabel leaned her head back and put her hand to her
chest. "Oh...." She leaned forward and Michael looked
at her sideways. "What just happened Isabel?"
"I think we just acted on some long hidden feelings.",
she replied tentively.
Michael faced her and searched her face. "You have
feelings for me?"
Isabel took a trembling breath and nodded. "Remember
when I said their was a guy I waiting for to ask me to
the dance?" He nodded.
"Wellll...it was you."
Michael sat back and took this in. She had wanted him
all along and he had wanted her. He couldn't believe
it. He sat forward and took her hand. 
"You know I never have felt about anyone the way I
feel about you. I love you Isabel." He took her face
in his hands and kissed her slow and deep.
Isabel returned his kisses as tears filled her eyes
with happiness.
He leaned back and seeing her tears,wiped them with
his thumbs. "Why are you crying?" 
"Because I love you so much."
"Isabel, will you stay with me tonight?", he asked
her.
She had not expected that. Her eyes flickered and he
saw it and released her face. He had gone to far.
"I understand. You're remembering what I said about
guys just wanting some tail. I don't blame you."
Isabel reached out and touched his arm. "No, that's
not it. I just can't believe that my dreams are coming
true. I've wanted you for a long time, but didn't
think you wanted me. Yes. I'll stay with you tonight
Michael."
He helped her stand up and led her to the bed.
Stroking her hair and down her arms, he reached back
up to her face and kissed her slowly at first, and
then with deep passion. She clung to him and thrust
her breasts into his chest. Michael slid her dress
down her body and to the floor. She stepped out of it
and kicked off her shoes. Michael reached behind her
and unhooked her bra as he continued kissing her lips
and neck. Her bra fell away as her breasts sprang
free. Michael reached and filled both hands with her
huge breasts. He caressed them and bent his head down
to suckle them. Isabel threw back her head and moaned.
She ran her fingers in his cool hair , holding his
head to her.
His hands slipped down to slide her slip off and then
her panties. She stood there in her stockings and
garters. God, she was so beautiful! Isabel felt self
conscious standing there before him nude. 
"Don't be shy with me Isabel. You have nothing to be
afraid of."
She reached over and slid his jacket off and tugged at
his shirt. He helped her to remove it and his muscle
shirt underneath. She worked his belt free and then
released the button and zipper on his pants. He kicked
off his shoes and leaned down to take off his socks as
she caressed his back. He took off his pants and
boxers and turned to her. She looked down and stared
at his organ so full of need. 
He wondered if she was scared or repulsed. Then she
reached out with soft hands and touched him. His
member jumped in her hands. He moaned as she
immmediately found the rhythum like she had always
known what he liked. He scooted them back towards the
bed and lay her down. He looked in her eyes and
said,"Isabel , you don't have to do this you know. We
can stop right now."
Isabel reached up and ran her fingers through his hair
and reached down between them and grasped him.
"I only want to be with you Michael. You are the only
one I want to be with."
He ran his hands down her body and found her curls
below. He slipped a finger over her clit and she
gasped as he slid it into her deeply. She was dripping
wet and aching. Her legs fell open in an invitation.
Michael groaned as he kissed his way down her breasts
to her belly, causing her to release him. He licked
her belly and darted his tongue inside her belly
button. He continude on down until he came to her
mound. He nuzzled her and then using his hands he
opened her folds and dove his tongue inside. Her hips
came off the bed and he pressed her back. He darted
his tongue in and out and deep in her ,licking her
until she was writhing. He used his finger to rub her
nub and she came over and over. He lapped her up and
pressed his tongue flat to her until the tremors she
had subsided. He crawled back up to her and kissd her.
She tasted herself in his kiss. "You are so beautiful,
you know that?", he asked her.
She shook her head and kissed him. "I can't believe
what you just did to me. I have never felt anything so
amazing....I want you to feel that too."
"You don't have to Isabel. I'm not expecting you to do
that for me."
"But I want to Michael."
She rolled him onto his back and began to kiss him on
his chest. Her hair trailed her and tickled him. She
kissed his nipples, making them hard. She kissed and
licked him down to his belly where she ran her tongue
inside his navel. He shivered and she smiled. She
continued on until she came to his throbbing penis.
She licked the head and tasted a few drops of his cum.
She continued the length of the shaft and and then
sucked him all the way into her mouth. He groaned in
pleasure and grasped her head, moving it ,helping her
with the rhythum. She went up and down the shaft as
she took his balls in her hands and lightly squeezed.
Taking him out of her mouth she licked his balls and
nipped at them before sucking them into her mouth. Her
teeth grazed them as she released them and returned to
sucking the head and then taking the whole shaft in
again. She sucked hard and he tried to pull her head
away. "Isabel , you've got to stop! I'm going to cum
in your mouth if you don't." She continued sucking
until he threw back his head in silent bliss. He
grabbed her head and held on as she took his warm cum
in her mouth. She licked him clean and crawled back up
to his side and lay with her head on his chest,
listening to his rapidly beating heart.
"You didn't have to do that Is", he said trying to
even his breathing,
"I know but I wanted to".
He rolled her onto her back and parted her thighs. He
placed himself at her opening and pressed forward.
They looked at each other as he said,"It is going to
hurt Isabel. I will try and make it quick so it won't
be so bad."
She nodded and he kissed her. Watching each other, he
pressed through her barrier. Isabel squeezed her eyes
shut and stifled a gasp. Michael felt bad for hurting
her. Then she began to moan as the pleasure took
over. They found the rhythum that they seemed to have
been born knowing about each other. He moved deeply in
her and thrust faster and faster. Isabel felt this
wonderful feeling begining deep down inside of her. It
rolled over her and exploded in waves. Her orgasm
continued until she couldn't move anymore. Michael
thought she was beautiful as she came, and when he
knew she was finished he thrust forward again and
reached his own peak. His cum shot through to her womb
and filled her with warmth. 
Michael held her as he said," I have never been this
relaxed in my life. I never want to leave you...I
won't leave you...I would have to die first."
"Don't say that Michael!"
"All I am saying is that nothing could ever make me
leave you. I love you to much."
"I love you too."

The present...

Isabel couldn't wait to tell Michael about the baby.
He would be thrilled. He wanted a family so bad.
She heard Max in his room and hid the test. She enterd
his room.
"Isabel, I think it is so great about Michael! I know
you are proud of him. Who would have thought that
Michael could pull it off."
"What are you talking about Max?", asked Isabel
confused.
Max looked at her and said, "Michael getting the full
scholarship to State! He leaves in a few weeks to meet
everyone and get settled."
Isabel thought she would be be sick. Michael was
leaving? How long had he known and when was he going
to tell her? She wanted to cry. She could not tell
Michael about the baby now. 
"Isabel, is something wrong? I thought you would be
excited for Michael", said Max concerned.
Isabel shook herself and smiled at him . "Yeah, I am
proud of him. I'm just tired is all. I'm going to go
lay down." And she left to go to her room and cry.

Michael paced his apartment and rubbed his hair and
face. What was he going to do? He was shocked about
the scholarship. He never expected it. He had not told
Isabel or anyone for that matter. Then Max had found
out. He didn't know how. Damn him! The scholarship
would not allow for married couples. He couldn't take
Isabel. If he went. If Isabel couldn't go , he didn't
want to. But the opportunity was tremendous. What the
hell was he going to do?

Isabel had sobbed herself to sleep and when she awoke,
she knew what she had to do. She called Alex and asked
him to come over.
Alex arrived very confused. He and Isabel were just
friends now and she had called him in tears. Isabel 
answered the door and looked miserable. She led him
upstairs and paced the room thinking of how to begin.
Alex was getting really nervous and worried. "Isabel,
what is wrong? Why are you so upset?"
Isabel stopped and came to sit by him. "I need a favor
Alex. A big favor. You can tell me no, but I need you
to really think about it before you do."
"What is it?"
Isabel took a deep breath and proceeded to ask her
favor.

Michael climbed up to Isabel's window and went inside.
It was very late and her parents were gone out of
town. He approached the bed and suddenly stopped at
what he saw.
Isabel was in bed, apparently asleep...with Alex!
"What the hell!!!", he yelled, grabbing at a seemingly
startled Alex.
Isabel popped up and grabbed the sheet over her and
begged Michael to leave Alex alone.
Max came running into the room and drew up short at
the site that greeted him. 
"What's going on here?" He ran up to Michael and
struggled to pull him off of Alex. "Michael, let him
go! Your going to kill him!", shouted Max.
Michael shook Alex one more time before throwing him
down. He turned on Isabel and shook his head. 
"I can't believe you! I thought we loved each other.
What are you doing in bed with Alex?", he asked, his
pain evident in his voice.
Isabel stuggled with her emotions. He had to believe.
"I couldn't help it Michael. I just felt this need to
be with Alex. I do love you, but I discovered it is
Alex that I'm in love with. We want to be together.
I'm sorry if I hurt you. Please understand."
He stared at her and shook, his heart breaking. This
couldn't be happening. He wanted to die. He turned and
went back out the window. 
Max turned to her and Alex. "What the hell is
happening? Are you crazy? I thought you were madly in
love with Michael?", he said through clinched teeth.
Isabel began to cry uncontrollably. Alex went to
console her.
"Max, don't yell at her. She did what she felt she had
to do. You don't know everything so don't yell her."
He turned back to Isabel. "I'm going now. Let me know
if you need me again." He put his shirt and jeans on
and left.
"I'm confused. What is going on Isabel?"
She just shook her head and turned away. "My life just
ended Max. My life just ended."

Three months later...

Isabel got up and went to the bathroom to throw up.
She hated throwing up. She washed her face and brushed
her teeth before returning to bed. 
She lay there and thought about how different her life
had become in the last three months. The night that
Michael had found her with Alex, she had packed her
things and left. She did not tell Max. She had left
him and her parents notes. She called them once a
month. They begged her to come home. She couldn't.
They didn't know why she had left.She had gotten the
idea from Liz. When she had asked Alex to help her
trick Michael into believing that they had slept
together, she had told him everything and sworn him to
secrecy. He hadn't wanted to it , but agreed that
Michael wouldn't go off to school if he knew about the
baby. She felt her rounding tummy. She was scared. She
had never thought to raise this baby alone. And she
grieved for the love that was lost to her. She had
hurt Michael so much. She got up and got ready for
work. She worked for a dress maker who let her create
her own outfits. They were huge sellers in the store.
This town was not to different from Roswell, except
that she had none of her friends or family...and no
Michael.
She ate breakfast not because she was hungry, but for
the baby. She got dressed in her new maternity clothes
and left. She was walking down the street when she
felt someone watching her. She stopped and looked
around. No one. She walked on to the shop and went
inside. 
"Good morning Isabel!", called out her employer, a
nice widowed lady. "And how is that baby today?"
"Fine Mrs. Young", Isabel replied.
The bell on the door rang as a customer entered. 
"I'll be right with you", Isabel called without
turning. As she approached the front her steps
faltered. Max stood infront of her watching her
approach.
"Max...", she whispered, shaking.
Max walked up to her and enclosed her in an embrace.
"Oh Isabel, what have you done? Why did you leave? If
it was because of the baby, you didn't have to do
that", he said as he stroked her hair.
Isabel began to cry and clutched at Max. Mrs.Young
came
out from the back and saw Isabel and a young man she
assumed was the father of her baby. "Isabel, why don't
you take the day off. Go with your young man and talk
things over."
Isabel pulled back. "This is my brother Mrs. Young.
Max this is my employer,she has been very good to me."
"Nice to meet you maam. Thank you for taking care of
my sister."
"Just take her and talk some sense into her."
Max and Isabel went to the park and sat down on the
bench. "How did you find me?"
"By accident. We have looked everywhere for you. One
of the partrons at the Crashdown was here and
purchased a dress and said she had seen you. You must
not have recognized her.
"I work in the back alot, so I may not have seen her",
replied Isabel.
"Why Isabel?"
Isabel took a breath and told him all about Alex, the
baby, and Michael.
Max shook his head and looked at her. "He didn't go
Isabel. He was so devestated that he gave up his
scholarship."
Isabel felt herself curl up inside. She had ruined his
college anyway. 
"He got another one close by at the community college
so he could stay in Roswell. He came back to talk to
you and were gone. Alex wouldn't tell us anything,
even when Michael threatened to kill him."
"I asked him not too. He really doesn't know where I
am."
"Come home Isabel. You and the baby. Michael misses
you ,our parents...and me." 
"I'm scared Max. I hurt him to help him , and then I
hurt him more. I can't face him."
Max nodded. "Then at least let me tell Mom and Dad
where you are so they can come and see you."
"Okay...Max, did you know about the baby before you
saw me today?", she asked.
Max looked at her and place his hand on her face. "No.
I was suprised when I saw you walking to work."
She nodded and they left the park.

The next day...

Michael knocked on the door and waited. Max said that
Isabel was okay, but still refused to come home. She
thought she had ruined Michael's life. Well he would
bring her home where she belonged.
The door opened and both stared at each other in
silent astonishment.
"Michael!"
"Your pregnant!?!?"
Her hand flew to her abdomen. Oh no! What would he do
now?
His mind reeled. How far along was she? Why had she
not told him?
"Come in Michael", she said standing aside to let him
in.
He walked in and stood watching her. 
"Were you ever going to tell me your pregnant? Is this
why you left? You know how much I wanted a baby, a
family."
Isabel sat down on the couch. "Michael, I was going to
tell you, I had planned to tell you the day your
scholarship was found out. But I knew you wouldn't
take it if you knew about the baby. We couldn't be the
reason you stayed. So I took a lesson from Liz and
asked Alex to help me con you. I'm sorry." She began
to cry," I've missed you so much."
He went to her and sat down beside her ,pulling her to
him. "Oh Isabel, you should have told me. I have been
crazy with worry about you. And your parents...well
you just need to come home." He kissed her and held
her tight, afraid she would disappear. "After I cooled
down and thought about it, I realized that Alex was to
cool about me finding you,like he expected it. I
didn't know about the baby, or your reasons, but I
felt like a con was going on and I didn't know why." 
Isabel closed her eyes and felt the first moment of
contentment since she had left home. 
Michael ran his hand down to her belly ,and their
child chose that moment to make its presence known.
Michael and Isabel felt it, and a glow began in each
of them as they felt the wonder of what they had
created. 
"We're getting married you know that don't you",said
Michael.
Isabel gave him "the look".
"Very romantic Michael. Just sweep a girl right off
her feet with those sweet words of love."
Michael got down on his knees and took her hands in
his. Looking tenderly in her eyes he asked,
"Isabel Evans, would you do me the honor of becoming
my wife? ....Is that better?", he asked her grinning.
She rolled her eyes at him and then kissed him softly
on the mouth. "Yes, that's better. And the answer is
'yes'."

Months later...

They were at the cave and Isabel strained to deliver
her baby. Michael placed his hand on her distented
abdomen and felt the contraction ripple through her.
Max entered the cave and brought the supplies with
him. "Walk her around Michael. The book says she needs
to walk around to speed the labor." So they walked
her.
Max had taken her pain away earlier, so she wouldn't
suffer. Liz prepaired items they would need.
"Now Michael! It's coming now! I feel the head!",
cried Isabel.
Michael calmed his own fears so she would not see
them. He had to be strong for her. 
He sat behind her and braced her while Liz delivered
their baby. It came fairly easy as Isabel pushed it
out. Very unusual. 
"It's a boy!", cried Liz. 
Isabel and Michael stared at him not believing that
their child was here. A son! And he had powerful
lungs. He would fit right in ...he was vocal. Liz
cleaned him up as Max healed Isabel's insides. Liz
handed Michael his son so she could take care of
Isabel.
Michael held him down low so Isabel could see him and
touch him. She cried as she gazed at her son.
Michael laid him on her chest and sat behind to brace
her again. She undid her top and placed her son to her
breast. He latched on causing her to jump. 
"Thanks Isabel for my son", he said as he kissed
her.They watched their son nurse and fell in love
again.
