The relationship between Barnabas and Julia during this time, had become quiet an uncomfortable one. She, in love, with a man who could not return in. And he knew, he loved her as friend in this time, despite the knowledge her was her husband in the future. Oh was he really sure he did not love her know. Love defined in its context to him meant bewilderment, anyway. But the passionate intense love he saw in the parallel room, was inticing to him. On the other hand, seeing a woman who extolled futures, for his sake, intrigued him. Continuance of his own blood line by someone who loved him, and who he cared deeply aroused her feelings for Julia that had long been with him, but he never realized, a man who loved, yet hid it within the realms of his heart. But now he realized the two women compared to each other, did not see compare equally. He now saw that. Angelique was in his mind incapable of continuing of his bloodline for the survival and protection of the Collins family. Julia had long in her history, had stood by him, and consistency over and over displayed genuine loyalty and love for his family with him. The experiences they shared caused them to have a unique bond and he know realized that bond was far more than mere friendship. He realized that he always had loved Julia, but kept it contained within his heart. But the evolution of their journeys together through the last five years, made him feel he had been with her a lifetime. And the thought of a family, loyal, and steadfast, with values intrigued him. He had already accepted Nicole , and Justin as his own children and loved them, and he had denied feelings for Julia.

"I love Julia," he thought, " I have always loved her for these many years." I have loved her more than she would ever realize, and I did not know it myself. And frankly , I do not see life without her, she has been so important to me."

"Barnabas she is very ill, she has toxemia, and could die . She is with child,your grandchild. We will have to watch her carefully and pray for her recovery. Except for watching her and putting cold compresses on her head, nothing else can be done. Oh Barnabas, if we lose her and the child, I can't admit it to myself. My child, my daughter,no not here. " sobbed Julia.

He was in agony too ,for he loved Nicole also.and was fearful of the loss of her, and his grandchild.

"Julia, stay with me and depend on me now. I need you, I only feel the pain. But Julia, you who have many times sacrificed your life for me, Barnabas is here for you now. I love you, and want to be with you, Do you understand. I have always been in love with you, not realizing it. But you extol the virtues that are important, and I hope you will love me through eternity. Let me show you how much I can love you Julia .Please give me a opportunity."

With that he took hold of her and kissed her intensely so that for a few moments she forgot who and where she was. She melted into the night into the arms who the man who loved her. And to his surprise, Barnabas forgot himself , and realized his heart and soul were entwined with Julia's. For in his heart and soul he loved dearly. Nothing would ever change that in his lifetime. He was hoping he could convince Julia, he was a man who loved her, and would all to do so.
