SUMMARY:

Peter and Kayla have been fighting for what seems to be a week. Peter was trying to think of a way to make up, before Kayla calls off the wedding.

Peter and Kayla had been fighting for what seemed to be a week now. Peter was trying to think of a way to make up to, Kayla.

Before he lost her.

"Peter, I need your help!" Dr. Lou Delgado yelled.

So far it had been a long busy day and his shift was almost over.

"Peter!" Dr. Lou yelled again and Peter jumped into action.

Kayla and Peter had been living together for almost a year now. While Peter was busy at work, it had been Kayla's day off.

Kayla had confirmed what she already suspected. She had come up with a way to tell Peter. She made dinner for two and put a note on his plate. It was an hour later when Peter finally got home.

"I'm sorry." Peter and Kayla said at the same time.

Kayla led Peter to the table, Peter picked up the note and read it to himself.

"You're preg...you're going..I'm going..." Peter stuttered looking at Kayla, as she nodded her head an smiled. "We're going to have a baby." Kayla confirmed.

Peter kissed her and she wrapped her arms around his neck.

"How about we skip dinner and go straight to desert?" Peter suggested. "Sounds like a plan to me." Kayla replied with a smile.

Kayla and Peter make their way to the bedroom. After several hours their stomachs were growling.

Peter warmed up dinner and took it to Kayla who was still in bed. After they finished Peter took care of the dishes.

A while later Peter and Kayla were laying side by side. All of the sudden Kayla jumped up and made it to the toliet just in time.

Ten minutes later Kayla climbed back into bed.

"Next time you carry the baby." Kayla groaned as she leaned her head against him. "I don't think that's possible." Peter replied, running a hand over her back.

"Maybe one day it will be possible for a man to get pregnant." Kayla replied.

SEVEN MONTHS PREGNANT...

Kayla gave birth to twin girls. One was stillborn and the other lived only a few hours. Peter held one baby and Kayla the other.

Not able to believe their daughters were dead.

A FEW DAYS LATER...

"Ashes to ashes, dust to dust..." The minister said.

Kayla fought tears, as Peter held her.

Everyone soon left, leaving Kayla and Peter at the graves of their daughters.

"Why did this happen? We had twins and now they're gone." Kayla said and the tears she had been fighting began to fall.

"I don't know, but we'll get through this." Peter told her. "How? We just buried our babies." Kayla replied.

"I don't know, but we will." Peter repeated. "I don't think I can marry..." Kayla began, but Peter cut her off. "Just because we lost our girls is no reason to call off the wedding." Peter said. "You still want to marry me?" Kayla asked.

"Yes, I asked you to marry me, because I love you. That's why I asked you." Peter said taking her hands in his own.

ONE YEAR LATER...

Peter and Kayla were married. Try as they might they couldn't get pregnant and went to see a fertility specialist.

There just didn't seem to be a reason why they were not able to get pregnant. They tried artifical insemination (using Peter's sperm,) and in vitro, but...nothing worked.

'Maybe I can't get pregnant, because I'm afraid of losing my baby again.' Kayla thought, but didn't want to voice her thoughts to Peter.

SIX MONTHS LATER...

Finally six months later after they stopped trying, Kayla got pregnant. Giving birth to a little boy, who she named,

Andrew.
