Mimi sat on a chair beside Angel's bed in the hospital. Angel was particularly strong today, and Mimi... Mimi was six weeks pregnant- Roger's, of course. Mimi sat Indian-style, a book of names in one hand, a notebook in the other. Mimi let an exasperated sigh escape her lips.
"God! I'm six weeks pregnant, and we haven't really looked at names."
Angel turned and looked at her. "You have time, you're due in several months from now."
Mimi looked up, and said exasperatedly, "But jeeez. We're having twins."
Angel stared for a moment or two. "Seriously? Oh my god, I'm so happy for you!"
She smiled and said, "Thanks. But we don't know if its two girls or two boys or a girl and boy. That's why we have to look at names now."
Mimi flipped through the baby names book, and occasionally wrote them down while chatting with Angel about the babies' futures. Then Mimi asked, "Angel, what do you think of Blair? For a girl."
Angel scrunched her face at the thought. "Blair Davis sounds kinda funky. It is a cute name though. Try... Theresa."
"Theresa? Ugh, that was the head nun at St. Jerome's, do you remember?" Angel cringed.
"Ew, I forgot about her. Whoops."
"My babies will not be named Marianela or anything sounding remotely like it."
Angel gave a small laugh, which turned into a coughing fit. When she recovered, she was almost wheezing. "Aha, why not Carmen and Nadia?"
Mimi thought about it, and grinned. "I like Carmen. But Nadia was my next-door-neighbor who I dearly despised. Hm... What do you think of Emily?"
Angel replied, "Emily Davis sounds cute. Go for it."
Mimi breathed a sigh of relief. "Finally! I have the girl's names down, Carmen and Emily. But what about boys'?"
Mimi said in a serious tone to Angel, "Roger wants to name our son -if we have a son- after his idol, Kurt Cobain. I talked him into Kurtis instead. I don't like it."
Angel shuddered. "Kurtis Davis is too... hissy."
"I know."
"Hmmmm... Blaine?"
"Blaine Davis is okay."
"Matthew?"
"He was the half-brother of the guy who gave me HIV."
"Well, erm, whoops. Jonathan?"
"Yes. I love that name."
Mimi left the hospital a couple hours after the names were picked out. It was a fun day, with not much reminder that Angel was ...dying. And despite that names were picked out, Mimi wanted to name her children -somehow- after Angel.

Angelo Jonathan and Lovette Carmen Davis were three months old and home from the hospital. Lovette was held by Roger, and Angelo sat on the floor in front of Mimi. Angel had been gone for three months, and strangely enough, the twins were born the day after Angel's passing.
The Davis family was in the Loft, along with Thomas and his jack Russell terrier, Cake; Maureen, Joanne, and their four-year-old adopted daughter Eloise; and Mark and his girlfriend Juliette. They were about to see what Mark had been going on about for a couple weeks- Today 4 U.
Mark started up the documentary, and as the images of Angel- Angel, Angel alive, Angel in love, the not sick Angel- Mimi couldn't stop the tears from spilling out. Looking around, most Bohemians had similar reactions. Roger was looking distraught, Collins was looking sadly broken inside, Maureen was quietly sobbing and being comforted by Joanne. Mark was whispering in Juliette's ear, and Juliette looked like she was a loss for words.
Mimi took Lovette from Roger, and held both babies in her arms. Angelo yawned an adorable baby yawn, and Lovette let out a coo at the site of Angel. Leaning in towards both of them, Mimi murmured, "This, my darlings, is Angel, your namesakes."
