"Jesse!" I yelled. "Help!" Of course, he probably went to pick Allie up from preschool. I crawl over to my phone. Sharp pain in my stomach reappears. I know what is happening, I've been through this already but I can't drive like this. My shaking fingers tap on Jesse's number and Allie picks up. He is probably driving.

"Sweetheart, put daddy on the phone, please."once more. I try not to scream.

"Daddy's driving, mommy." With that she hangs up. Damn it. There is no way that girl is going to break the rules. My mind thinks of Chloe. That's my next best option. I bring the phone up to my ear.

"Hi, Beca. Oh my God, you won't believe it. I'm getting married. James just proposed. Oh it's a perfect princess cut ring, you have to see it. It's so me." She says in one breath,excitement in her voice. I interrupt her.

"Chlo.." I say in weak voice. She gasps and adds

"We'll be there in a minute, sweetie. Hold on." I feel relaxed but I know it's going to be hard, waiting for them. Again. I hold my stomach. Please let everything be ok. Allie yells from the ground floor and I feel relieved.

"Jess! I'm upstairs. Help!" I yell at the top of my lungs. I hear his footsteps as he races towards me.

"Beca!" He calls as he enters the room. "I'll get the bags. Can you get to the car?" I nod and slowly make my way downstairs. Jesse takes Allie by the hand and leads her to the car. I take my phone and dial Chloe.

"Chloe, go to the hospital. Jesse is here." I whisper through the phone. We enter the hospital, Jesse holding my hand and Allie clinging onto his.

Jesse runs up to a nurse and asks her to help. So here I am on the hospital bed when the doctor comes in.

"We're going to have to perform a Caesariansection. We'll get you to the operating room." She tells us. Jesse's eyes widen before he whispers to me

"It's going to be fine, Beca. We'll wait for you."Allie looks at me and Jesse kneels down to her

"Mommy is going with those doctors and she'll be back soon, okay?" She nods and runs towards the bed

"Mommy, be back soon." I smile, brushing her hair out of her eyes.

"Mrs Swanson, are you ready?"The doctor says as I wave to them. Jesse smiles and Allie holds onto his hand. They lead me into a white room and the doctors are already there. Two doctors and five nurses, I count. I know I'm safe but I'm still nervous. I've never had an operation before. Well a closed operation to fix my broken leg doesn't count. A blonde nurse in her thirties comes up to me and puts a mask on my face. She tells me to breath into it and to count to ten in my mind. I feel myself drifting off. I wake up a few hours later, or so I'm told. Jesse and Allie are sitting in a chair by my side, smiling widely.

"Mommy, mommy, I saw my little brother and my little sister. They are so small. Daddy took me to see them."she says excited. Jesse smiles to me.

"They're beautiful, Bec. You'll see. What will we name them?" He asks and I shrug.

"How about Andrew and Molly?" He asks and I smile.

"More Breakfast club names, Jess?" I says and he laughs.

"I like it, mommy. Andrew and Molly. Daddy, when will we go see Drew and Molls again?" The five yead old asks. As if on cue a nurse walks in holding two baby blankets. A blue and a pink one. Behind her I see a flash of red and blonde hair before they run over to the bed. Chloe and James, Bree, Uni and their two yearold Matt, Stacie and Benji, Lily and Donald, Amy, Ashley, Jessica, all pile up in the room. The nurse puts Drew in my lap and Jesse takes Molls.

"What did you name them? Chloe asks, setting a white teddy down on the table. Bree plays with Allie and a big white-blue teddy, Matt by her side. Stacie kisses Drew's forehead and Benji asks Jesse to hold Molly.

"This is Andrew or as we named him Drew and that would be little princess Molly." I say handing Drew over to Chloe. Allie looks up and comments to Jesse

"I thought I was a little princess, daddy." she says, pretending to be hurt.

"Oh sweetheart, you're not a little princess anymore, you're a big princess Allison. See now we use your full name." He answers hugging her.

"No can do. You call me Allie. I like that better." She tells him and we laugh.

"Ok, we call you big princess Allie."I say and she turns to me raising her thumb

"You got it, dude." The whole room bursts into laughs.

"Jess, you two have been watching way too much Full House." I tell him laughing.

"You can never watch too much Michelle, mom." Allie says, her voice serious and sarcastic as if she's giving me a lesson. The room laughs before Benji interrupts

"Look, they're smiling." he says handing Drew and Molly back to Jesse and I. Yep, they are enjoying their crazy big family.
