Our little guys are almost 9 months and Mason can stand on his own with a little assistance.

Rileys POV: 

It was a cold, stormy night, and as usual, Reed and I were trying to relax on the couch when we heard a knock at the door. Knowing what was going on with Tate, we were both worried so Reed told me to go upstairs with a phone, worried I was the next target I proceeded upstairs to the boys room. I listened carefully in case Reed needed official help. I suddenly heard a familiar voice, “Hey Reed. Is Riley around?” Knowing instantly , the familiar voice I ran down the stars as fast as I could. “Laim?!” I shouted running to my brother standing in the pouring rain, I immediately hugged him and pulled him inside. 

Riley: What are you doing here? How are you? Where have you been? I haven't heard from you. I tried to call...You never called me back. 

Liam: (shuts door behind) Reed called, I knew it was time I show my face. 

Riley: What do you mean?

Liam: He told me about Luna. I know you need me here. Besides, I havent got to meet my nephews yet. 

Riley: Why haven't you answer my calls whats going on with you Liam? We used to be so close.... You’re my twin for crying out loud...

Liam: i didn't want to go through this now, because I know you and Reed need me and I don’t wanna make today about me. 

Riley: Its okay, please tell me....

Liam: Its been nearly a year but... I had a lung transplant... I was really sick... I just- I didn’t want you to see me like that. I’m sorry I’ve been a crummy brother... I should’ve been there for you when the boys were born..I’m sorry. (Looks down ashamed)

Riley :(places hand on Liams shoulder) Hey! No! Don’t talk like that. You have nothing to be sorry for. Why didn’t you come to me though, I could’ve helped. Im a respiratory therapist, Liam... 

Liam :That’s the problem. That’s why I didn't come to you. You of anyone, know the severity of these issues. You’d understand too much.

Reed: I don-don’t understand.

Riley: He didn’t come to me because he knew, that I’d know by seeing him how bad he was, because of my career. 

Liam: Exactly and I couldn’t have it affecting your babies. I could never live with myself if the heartache I caused you affected your children.  

Reed: We...how are you now?

Liam: I’m in recovery, but i’m good. Im slowly building the lung capacity I need. 

Riley: stay with us Liam. Please. Its the least we could do. We have plenty of space, all the equipment you need. Let me help you now. 

Liam: (smiles) No, not before i see my nephews. (smiles)
