Chapter 1

Sonny pushed open the door of the penthouse, with a smile on his face. "We're home."

"Finally!" Carly responded, walking through the door. She set down one of the baby carriers and smiled at Matthew Corinthos, their new son. "Did you here that baby? We're home!"

Sonny set the other carrier down which held their youngest child, their daughter Morgan Corinthos. "No more hospital food!"

Carly laughed as she sat down. She had been trapped in the hospital for four days. The unexpected delivery of twins had surprised everyone, including the doctors. They said something about one of the babies blocking the other in the monitor or something. Carly didn't usually like surprises but she defiantly loved this one. "I'm starving."

"Now?" Sonny exclaimed with a laugh. He thought she would come home and go right to bed. Despite her protests, he knew she was still exhausted.

"Yes, don't worry about it though. I'll just order some pizza…" She said, knowing that would get him.

"Forget that, I'll make you something." He told her and went into the kitchen.

She sat back, unable to shake the grin on her face.

"Mommy! You're back!" Michael exclaimed, running down the stairs.

Carly turned and gave him a hug. "Mr. Man, what are you doing awake? It's 11 at night."

"I was asleep but I heard your voice so I had to come see!"

Leticia came down the stairs and smiled. "Sorry Mrs. Corinthos, he was just excited."

"It's okay," Carly said and Leticia disappeared again.

"So do you want to meet you're little brother and sister?"

"What? I thought it was just one."

"That's we thought but they surprised us."

"What are their names?" He asked, looking down at their tiny sleeping faces."The boy is Matthew and the girl is Morgan." Carly explained.

"We all have 'M' names!"

"What?" She asked, confused.

"Michael, Matthew and Morgan."

Carly laughed. "I didn't even realize that but I think it's time for you to go to bed."

"Oh do I have to? I want to stay with you."

"You can see us when you wake up tomorrow. For now sleep!"

"Alright." Michael agreed, grudgingly. He kissed his mother on the cheek and went upstairs.

Sonny reappeared with a plate of scrambled eggs and toast.

"Did you realize all our kids have names with 'M's?" Carly said with a laugh.

"So I heard. Eat up, you need you're sleep too."

She shoved a forkful in her mouth. "There's no way I'm sleeping yet, I'm too wired."

Sonny shook his head and smiled. "Well what do you propose we do?"

"You should go to bed, I know you're tired." She commented, taking note of the dark circles under his eyes.

"I am not." He protested, stubbornly.

"How much sleep have you had the last few days?" She asked. "And tell me the truth."

Sonny opened and closed his mouth. "That's not the point."

Carly finished the food and smiled, satisfied. "Lets take the little ones upstairs to sleep."

"Carly, we only have one bassinet."

She looked at him, wide eyes. "I forgot about that. We're going to need a second everything! But it's too late to go and get one."

"Don't worry," He said as he disappeared back into the kitchen.

Carly sighed and leaned back against the couch. Five minutes later she awoke with a start since she had drifted off. "Hmmm?" She mumbled, sleepily.

Sonny came back into the room and opened the door and handed the man a bunch of bills. He closed the door and held up a box. "See what resources and money can accomplish?"

Carly went over to the box and looked in. It held a pink bassinet; the one they already had was blue since they knew that they were going to have a boy.

Carly followed Sonny up the stairs, carrying the babies. He quickly set up the bassinet, quiet so not to wake Michael. She set the babies down and smiled. She changed into her pajamas and as soon as her head hit the pillow, she was fast asleep.
