Bo and Dyson rushed over to the fae hospital. No one knew about the baby because they had only known for less than twenty-four hours. The first people they wanted to tell were Kenz, Hale and Trick; not Lauren but they needed her help. They found Lauren without any problems.
"What are you two doing here?" asked Lauren; sensing the palpable distress between the couple.
"Lauren we need your help. Please, it's important. It's not case related, it's personal; so can we please do this somewhere more private." Asked Bo trying to keep her calm.
Lauren led them to a triage bed, more private and away from prying eyes.
She finally had enough of not knowing and asked," Okay, seriously what's wrong? You're worrying me. Bo are you sick?"
Just then, Bo paled and sat down. She looked at Dyson and he had just enough time to grab a nearby rubbish bin and hand it to her. Dyson held back Bo's hair as she began to throw up stomach acid and start dry heaving again. He rubbed her back and tried to comfort her.
"Hey babe, you're okay. You're both going to be just fine. I love you both so much." Dyson said quietly placing a kiss on her forehead.
Lauren's jaw dropped as Dyson's words sank in.
"Oh my god. Bo are you pregnant?
Bo and Dyson exchanged glances and momentarily forgot their worries and concerns as they thought about their unborn baby. One of Bo's hands joins Dyson's on her swollen abdomen, the other entwined with his. Smiles break across both their faces and Bo simply nods. After the shock starts to wear off, Laurens puts her professional façade back on and starts asking the right questions.
"How far along are you and how long have you known?"
"Well you see that's why we're here. I took five tests yesterday and they all came back positive. I calculated that I was six to eight weeks along, but this morning I noticed in the mirror that I'm already showing. I shouldn't be showing for a month or two and Dyson pointed out that the morning sickness is worse then he thought it should be. Maybe something's wrong with the baby."
Bo was now in tears and started to become hysterical.
"Shh, babe it's okay, our baby will be okay." Dyson said as he rubbed gentle circles over Bo's abdomen and the home of their unborn baby. "Lauren can you please run some tests and make sure everything is fine with both Bo and the baby? "
"Yeah, no problem. I'll start with an ultrasound and go from there. Bo lie down on the bed and uh, pull up your top. I'll be right back."
A few moments later, Lauren returned with the ultrasound machine. Dyson took a seat and held Bo's hand.
"Lets get started. The gel might be a little cold, it's nothing you can't handle I'm sure." Lauren said as she squeezed the gel onto Bo's exposed abdomen.
Bo flinched and squeezed Dyson's hand he squeezed it back in reassurance. Bo and Dyson stared at the black and white screen in anticipation. Lauren moved the wand over Bo's abdomen in slight confusion. Bo caught on and became even more worried. Dyson kept a calm façade for Bo's benefit.
"Lauren please tell us what's wrong. I need to know. Is it something I did? Is it my fault?" Bo panicked.
"No, no you didn't do anything wrong. You seem to be about nine weeks along, so you where close in your estimate."
"That still doesn't explain why I'm showing already. The baby can't be that big yet, can it? Is it some kind of succubus lycan thing? Lauren what's going on?"
Bo was now back to her frantic state. Dyson tried to calm her down again but she remained in her panicking state of mind.
"Shh, it's okay. Our baby's going to be fine. I'm sure he or she will be perfectly healthy." Dyson said kissing Bo lightly.
Lauren could tell that talking wasn't going to cut it with Bo. She was too worked up. Lauren decided to switch tactics.
"How about I just show you. Both of you look back at the ultrasound monitor."
Bo finally calmed down and grabbed Dyson's hand as they both turned excitedly to the monitor, holding Bo's hand even tighter.
"Okay, see here? This blobby bit here…" Lauren moved the probe around Bo's exposed abdomen. "…and these two blobs here. These are your babies. Congratulations you're having triplets."
Bo and Dyson where simply awe struck. Their jaws dropped and neither of them said anything for a few minutes. This time Dyson was the first to speak.
"Triplets? As in, three babies? Are they all okay? Will Bo be okay? Dyson fired off.
"Yes triplets. Bo is nine weeks pregnant with three healthy babies. So far everything looks good. As long as nothing traumatic happens and Bo is careful I don't see why she wouldn't carry the babies to term. You should come in for regular check ups and if you have any other questions feel free to ask. I can tell this is a lot to take in, so I'll leave you two alone to soak it in. Oh, and congrats. I'll print you off a few stills of the ultrasound that you can grab on your way out."
With that, Lauren left the couple to deal with the news privately. Bo remained silent
"Bo please talk to me. Are you still happy about the babies?"
"Dyson of course I am, I'm thrilled. It's just a lot to take in. What about you, are you okay with all of this?"
"Bo, I couldn't be happier. I can't imagine anything better than having a baby with you and being a dad. Now you're giving me three babies and I feel like my heart could explode there is so much love in it. I love you so much and I love these babies"
Dyson kissed her exposed abdomen three times with feather light kisses. He then kissed her vigorously with tears of joy in his eyes. Once they finally broke apart; Bo replied, also teary eyed and smiling.
"I love you too and I love them already as well. Lets go home. Let's just wait a while to tell people. I want to keep this between us and also wait to see that everything is okay with the babies"
"Sure thing Bo. Let's just stop and grab the pictures from Lauren first. Then we can head home to celebrate."
