Amanda's POV

As Simon and I drive to the beach we decide we are going to stop by the hospital to see Aria. We walk into the hospital and are led back to Aria who has been taken off of her feeding tube but still on a breathing machine.
"May I please hold her?" I ask the nurse beside me. She nods and takes Aria out of her bed. She rest her in my arms, adjusting her breathing tube. I sit in the rocking chair provided and rock her slowly.

"She's so beautiful." Simon sighs, rubbing the top of her head.

"That she is." I sigh and kiss her soft head.
"Would you like to hold her while I go find out when she can come home?" I ask. He nods quickly and switches places with me. I walk out of the room and walk up to the desk.
"Excuse me but is Aria's Doctor around?" I ask young lady.

"Yes, let me just page him." she smiles.

"No need, I'm right here." I hear a man say. I spin around and see someone I never expected.

"L-Leroy." I gasp and back away a bit. He grabs my finger tips and pulls me aside.

"Listen I'm really sorry okay. It's really complicated. I'm here to take care of your child and that's it." he sighs.

"Fine, when the hell will I have my daughter back?" I ask, shaking.

"It should be with in a month. One of her lungs collapsed so it's been really hard to fix." he sighs. I nod and then walk away. As I get closer I hear Simon singing to Aria.

I wanna see you run
Anywhere you want
Never let the darkness hold you back
No fear of getting lost

I wanna see you fly
Way beyond the sun
Anything you're ever gonna dream
I pray that it will come

But if you ever fall down straight to the bottom
And you can't get back where you started
Any place any time
You gotta know for you I'll fight
(Ooh ooh, ooh ooh)

Where you wanna go
I'd love to take you there
Wish that I could make the road easy
I wish that life was fair
Don't wanna see you cry
Even when it rains
And I hope you don't forget this
You were born for better things

But if you ever fall down straight to the bottom
And you can't get back where you started
With no strength to stand
I'm gonna reach for your hand
When the going gets rough right when it's hurting
I will be there to help bear the burden
Any place any time
You gotta know for you I'll fight
(Ooh ooh, ooh ooh)
Any place any time
You gotta know for you I'll fight

Anywhere you go
You're gonna find me
No matter what you need
If you ever fall down and you can't get back
If you lose your strength to stand

If you ever fall down straight to the bottom
And you can't get back where you started
With no strength to stand
I'm gonna reach for your hand
When the going gets rough right when it's hurting
I will be there to help bear the burden
Any place any time
You gotta know for you I'll fight
(Ooh ooh, ooh ooh)
Any place any time
You gotta know for you I'll fight


As he finishes I have tears down my face and know she's a lucky little girl.
