Chapter 7
This chapter is basically a filler chapter. It contains some wedding info a little of Blair and Abi-Gayle and the twins. This takes place 2 weeks after chapter 6.
Serena woke up to the sun shining brightly in on her. She turned over to find Dan was not in the bed with her, so she slowly got up out of bed and put on her robe to go find Dan. As she made her way down the stairs the smell of chocolate chip pancakes, bacon and eggs consumed her. She walked into the kitchen to find Dan by the stove flipping a pancake with nothing but his boxer shorts and an apron on.
"Morning gorgeous." Dan smiled at her as she walked up to him. "You should have stayed in bed, I was planning on bringing breakfast to you" He said as he placed a soft kiss on her lips.
"Well we were hungry and I thought you went out." She said as she kissed him and stole a piece of bacon.
"Ok breakfast will be ready in about 5 minutes. In the mean time you can have these" Dan said as he place a bowl of grapes in front of her.
"Ok" She said and took the bowl of grapes and started eating. "You know if you continue treating me like this when I'm pregnant I will probably want to be pregnant all the time" She said laughing when she saw the look on his face.
"Only if they aren't always going to be twins" he said laughing.
"Did you remember to call Brooke and tell her that we are having twins so she can modify the dress again?" Dan asked as he walked into the bathroom where Serena was taking a bath to get ready for their appointment.
"No I forgot" Serena said giggling.
"Well you better call her or else your dress won't fit on our wedding day"
"I will. As a matter of fact hand me my phone please" She asked. Dan went and got her phone and brought it back to her.
"Hey B. Baker" She said when Brooke answered the phone. "I've got some news to give you but I'm not sure you are going to like it"
"What kind of news?" Brooke asked as she placed a sleeping Savannah back into her crib
"Well it's about my wedding dress" She said waiting for Brooke's outburst
"What about your dress. I'm not finished with it yet" Brooke said as she waited for what Serena had to tell her.
"Ahm…Well I'm having twins so the dress is going to have to be a bit bigger"
Brooke sighed "Serena I swear if after this you call me again to tell me the dress has to be bigger I will fly to New York and I will hurt you" she said laughing
Serena laughed "Well I don't think you will have to worry about that. Look on the bright side you still have over a month left to finish the dress"
"True but it has to be perfect. Serena Van der Woodson cannot get married in just any dress. It has to be perfect. But in order for me to do that you have to not eat like a pig whether or not you are eating for three." Brooke said
"Ok B. Baker I'm not making any promises but I'll try" Serena said laughing
"Oh my Gosh I forgot to congratulate you. Congrats S please tell that fiancé of yours that he better not fat you up or I'll kill him" Brooke said amidst her laughing
"Ok I sure will. Thanks Brooke. Oh say hi to that beautiful girl of yours and Julian" Serena said before she ended the call.
At the doctor's office
Serena and Dan sat flipping through magazines while they waited for her name to call.
"Serena Van Der Woodson?" A nurse came out and called "the doctor will see you now. Right this way" She said as she led them down a corridor to an exam room. She then told her to lay on the table and that Dr Montgomery would be in to see her in a moment.
"Good morning Miss Van Der Woodson and Mr Humphrey. Let's see how your babies are doing shall we?" Dr Montgomery said as she entered the exam room. "Are we excited to see our babies today" She asked as she placed gel on Serena's bump.
"Yes we are. We are very excited" Serena said taking hold of Dan's hand
"Ok good. Let's get started then" Dr Montgomery said.
"Well everything looks good. Booth babies' hearts are beating strongly and they are both developing well and they are active. Everything is right on schedule."
"They are?" Serena asked
"Yes they are. Oh I didn't give you a due date at your last appointment so it seems they should be here August 17th but being as it is twins there is a strong possibility that they will arrive two to three weeks early which means they could arrive anytime from the 27th July to 17th August."
"I assure you Dr Montgomery no one will be leaving this womb before the 17th August" Serena said rubbing her belly lovingly.
"We will see how you'll feel about that in a couple of months" Dr Montgomery said smiling "However in order for that to happen you will have to give up sex, spicy foods, and no excessive walking during the third trimester."
"I can do that" Serena said and Dan just laughed
"Ok see you in two weeks Serena" Dr Montgomery said and exited the room.
"I'm going to go see Blair and Abi" Serena said and she gave Dan a kiss and entered the cab. Dan entered with her. "Where are you going?"
"I'm going to see Chuck." Dan said as he closed the door and gave the driver the address.
"What you going to see Chuck about?" Serena asked as she leaned her head on his shoulder
"It is a surprise. You will find out when the time is right and I'm ready to tell you" Dan said and kissed her on her forehead.
"Ok then"
The taxi came to a stop at the Bass Industries Office building and Dan exited the taxi. Serena sat back in the car and gave the driver the address to the Bass apartment.
Serena walked into the lavish Upper East Side penthouse which belonged to Chuck and Blair, to find Blair sitting on the couch with Abi. She was dressed in only her robe, her hair was all messed up and she looked like she hadn't slept in days.
"Hey B. Are you ok? You look like you haven't had much sleep"
"Because I haven't gotten any sleep. She refuses to let me sleep" Blair said and handed Abi to Serena.
"Hi Abi. Why won't you allow mommy to get some sleep?" Serena said as she took the baby from Blair. "How about I take her to the park or something and allow you to get some sleep?"
"You would do that?" Blair asked
"Yea of course I will. You just go take a long bath and then get some sleep. We'll be back in a couple of hours."
"Ok thanks S you are the best" Blair said as she hugged Serena
"You are welcome B now go." Serena said as she pushed her towards the stairs.
While Blair was taking her bath Serena packed a bag for Abi changed her clothes said goodbye to Blair and then they headed out to the elevator.
Serena strolled down the streets of New York pushing sleeping Abi-Gale in her stroller towards central park. Before she got to the park Abi woke up, she looked around a bit as her eyes adjusted to being awake. As soon as Serena got to central park Abi started to cry. Serena hurriedly found a bench and parked the stroller before she took out the screaming baby. After failed attempts at trying to quiet her down Serena found her bottle and gave it to her. Serena sighed when Abi began to suck hungrily on the bottle.
When Abi finished the bottle Serena placed a kiss to her forehead before placing her on her shoulder and burping her. After burping her Serena placed a blanket on the ground then laid on it and played with her until she started to get sleepy. When she fell asleep Serena got up, places her in the stroller and decided it was perfect time to go shopping.
While walking down the streets Serena saw a children's store and decided to enter. When she entered she was at a loss for words. The clothes were just so small and cute. She started walking through the aisles and picking up stuff when a store clerk came up to her.
"Good afternoon miss, how can I help you today?" The slender girl asked
"Well sure you can." Serena smiled and handed the clothes she had already taken up to the girl "you can hold these for me"
"Sure no problem miss" The girl said with a fake smile plastered on her face. "Anything else I can do for you miss?"
"Yes come with me" Serena said as she walked to another section in the store. "Oh my gosh isn't this just cute" She said as she held up the most adorable little dress.
"Yes miss very cute" The girl replied.
After about an hour in the store Serena finally decided she should leave so she cashed what she had and left. She spent a couple more hours shopping. When she finally got tired she called a cab which took her back to the Bass's.
When Serena got home later that night she was exhausted, but she could not help but show Dan all the things she bought.
"Serena?"
"Yes?"
"Do you realise there are like a million girl things in here, a few unisex stuff and like 6 boy stuff? You do realise that we don't know if we are having boys or girls or both a boy and a girl?" Dan asked with and amused look on his face.
"Yes I do realise that, but the boy stuff weren't as cute as the girls' so I kind of went crazy on the girly stuff but those were the only boy stuff I like and I bought the unisex stuff for if there's a boy." She said with a frustrated look on her face. "They don't make a lot of really, really cute boy stuff. Plus I think they are both girls"
Dan just smiled and said "If you say so. But you just need to go to more stores that's all. I'm sure you'll find more cute stuff. Anyway, you look exhausted so let's get you to bed."
"Ok"
