Artemis couldn't sleep she was so nervous. Only two weeks left. Just two more weeks and her and Wally would completely change, tied together for the rest of their lives through one incredible miracle. No matter what happened, they'd be apart of eachothers lives forever.
Artemis was standing infront of the bathroom mirror, her swollen stomach exposed. She could see several stretch marks varying in size scattered around her belly.
M'gann never had stretch marks- at least none that Artemis had ever seen. Although she probably morphed them away, making her stomach smaller.
"I wonder if she did."
"Who did what?"
Artemis jumped when she heard Wally. "Jeez Kid Idiot! Don't scare your nine month pregnant girlfriend!" Artemis cried. "Sorry. So what were you talking about?" Wally asked.
"M'gann morphing to make her stomach smaller and get rid of stretch marks." Artemis replied. "I doubt it. Morphing her anatomy could've effected the twins." Wally explained.
"I'm sorry, I don't know if it's my lack of decent sleep withthe baby kicking, or my pregnancy brain, but Wally, all I heard from you was 'Wah wah wah.' like from Charlie Brown."
Wally said nothing.

"Hi Aunt Awtemis. How awe you?" Lucas asked. Poor Lucas, he could pronounce his R's. But for a Kryptonian/Martian hybrid, him and his sister were quite intelligent.
But every genius had trouble with something.
"Hi honey. I'm good." Artemis smiled, pulling him into her lap. Or, what was left of it. "So when's youw baby coming?" He asked.
"Very, very soon. Me and Uncle Wally are happy." Artemis said. "That's cool. Is it a boy like me ow a giwl like Hannah?" Lucas asked.
"We don't know. It's gonna be a surprise." She explained. "Like a pwesent?" Lucas questioned. "Exactly! Like a really exciting present." She said.
"I can't wait to see the pwesent." Lucas said. "Yeah, me too."

"Artemis! You shouldn't be traveling! You're due in a week!" Paula scolded her daughter. "I'm sorry Mom. But I wanted to see you, I live so far away." Artemis said, sitting on the couch.
"So how's everything?" Artemis asked. "I manage. Your friend Robin and his mentor Batman visit me at least three times a week. Not for long. Usually for a half hour, to chat and see that I'm still breathing. Amd Mrs. Chase from 18B drops off food and the bills every Sunday." Paula explained.
Artemis smiled. "I'm sorry I moved so far away. Central High isn't as good as Gotham Academy, but it's better then dropping out." Artemis said sheeplessly.
"I'm glad you found someone like Wally." Paula said, holding her daughter's hands. "I'm sorry you never found someone like Wally." Artemis said.
"Oh it's okay honey." She said.

Wally, for some strange fucked up reason, had decided to take Artemis up to the roof of their apartment building.
"Wallace Rudolph West! What are you doing?" Artemis groaned, one hand in Wally's grip and the other on her abdomen.
"I'm trying to be romantic." He said.
"Oh God Wally! No. The last time you were "romantic" you tried to ask me to give you a blow job without just right out asking!" She complained. Wally scoffed. "I'm not gonna ask you for a BJ. Five months ago, maybe." Artemis just ignored him.
She was surprised at what she saw. In the center was a table and two cars, two tin foil plates on it.
"Oh Wally. This is so sweet!" Artemis gushed, kissing him fully on the lips. "I try. Figured it be the last nice dinner we'd ever get in." He said.
"So what'd you get?" she asked. I got me fried rice and you moo shoo pork. Since you've been craving it all day." He said. "That's sweet Baywatch."
It was almost midnight, and suddenly they could hear music. "Wanna dance?" Wally asked, raising an eye brow. Artemis nodded, as they stood up.
Artemis rested her head on his shoulder, and Wally placed her hands on her hips, as they swayed to the music.
'I've got beginners luck. The first time I'm in love, I'm in love with you. Gosh I'm lucky!
I've got beginners luck. There was never such a smile, or such eyes of blue. Gosh I'm fortunate!'
"Wally?" Artemis muttered, her head still on his shoulder. "Yeah Artemis?" Wally asked.
"I think my water broke."
(Only one chapter left! And like with M&C it's gonna be the longest chapter. I'm excited! :)
