"Take a deep breath."
"I'm taking a fucking deep breathe Paul! You can hear them!" I yelled before sighing and grunting as the pain wracked through me. I whimpered and felt a cold towel on my head. I winced when another pain came and the doctor came in.
"Now?"
"You're only 4 centimeters." She sighed as she walked out.
"You have got to be fucking kidding me! it's been 20 hours!" I yelled after her and felt Paul rub my arm as another contraction came through. I gasped and gripped his hand when my dad came over and rubbed my arm. I started breathing heavily and hissed when the door opened and my mother came in with her new baby.
"Mom it hurts!"
"It will baby. You just need to breath and cus out Paul. You'll feel better." I felt another pain and grabbed him hard and gasped when it stopped and turned to look at the door. I saw Juliet, Claus, Aunt Ann, Uncle Justin and Leah walk in.
"Hey girl."
"Hey-aaaaaaaay!" I ended up yellin as another pain racked through me.
"That bad."
"It's like a whale coming out of a whole the size of your eye." I breathed and felt another pain and started tearing up. "I want the drugs. Give me drugs!"
"I'll get the nurse." Dad said as he left the room.
"If she doesnt bring me drugs I'll kill her!" I yelled as another one came. I whimpered when she came in with a machine and the doctor.
"Let's check you again." She checked and smiled wide.
"Whats the verdict?" I asked before feeling another contraction closer now.
"You were 7 centemeters. Now you're 8." I breathed a sigh of relief and saw Paul sit down next to me and rub my arm.
"I love you."
"I love you too." He said with smile and kissed my hand. I felt another pain and cried out . The nurse lifted me up and the doctor came in. She laid me back down and checked and clapped her hands.
"We're ready! Only two people can stay."
"Paul and mom." I whimpered as another pain went through me. I saw mom hand her baby to juliet and then they put on scrubs as the doctor got ready. I whimpered and saw Paul in scrubs and a hat and holding my hand.
"Ok. when i tell you to push, push ok?" I nodded and cried out when another one hit. I felt my legs go up and then she looked at me. "Ok, on the count of three push for 5 seconds ok?"
"Yea."
"1,2,3!" I pushed hard while she counted. "You're about to crown. Again, 1, 2, 3!" I pushed and felt a pressure lift off me and stopped and gasped for breathe.
"You're doing good Tali!" I nodded at Paul.
"!, 2, 3!" I grunted and pushed and heard a cry. I smiled wide as Paul cut the umbilical cord. "Ok time for the second one." I pushed and felt even more pressure lift and stopped to gain breathe. "He's crowning. Just one more push." I pushed and heard another cry and saw Paul cut another cord. I smiled and felt tears come to my eyes when I saw my boys being cleaned. They handed the first one to Paul and then the second to him. He came over to me smiling and crying and handed me one of our boys. Ours boys. I smiled and laughed before crying.
"I love you so so much." Paul said while crying before kissing me. I nodded and saw a little face yawn and brown eyes stare back at me. He looked just like paul. They both did. I smiled wide at their lighter skin and kissed my first born forehead. I looked up as everyone came in and got to hold them.
"Say cheese!" Juliet said as we took pictures and the boys took pictures with everyone. They took a picture with my dad and mom, then dad, then mom, the auntie and uncle, then my brother's and sister in laws, then mom and step dad. I laughed and kissed Paul as they took pictures of us. It was time for everyone to leave and we sat with the boys.
"Their so small."
"You're just big." He laughed at me and kissed our son on the head. "What should we name them?"
"Peter William Merez and Travis Damon Merez."
"Perfect." i said as he put Peter and Travis in the basinet and climbed into the bed with me.
"I love you so much for giving me them."
"I love you for being the most amazing fiance and I know you'll be a amazing dad." I kissed him softly as we feel into sleep.

"Why are you so fussy Peter? Why can't you nap with your brother?" I cooed as he cried and walked him around down stairs. I kissed his cheeks and laughed when he stopped and started laughing. I rubbed his back and then laid him down in his basinet. I turned the baby monitor on and then went into the kitchen and turn the other one on and started making dinner. I made my peach pie and some fish fry and frys. I had everything on the table when Paul came in.
"I'm beat!" He kissed my cheek before grabbing a beer and sitting down.
"You have patrols?"
"Naw, I have the night off." He said before we started eating and getting into our day.
"I put pictures up of the boys on facebook. And we have our portrait tomorrow."
"Ok. Blue?"
"And white." I smiled as we finished and went to wash the dishes and get everything put away when he shooed me.
"You've been here all day with the boys. Go take a bath and rest." I kissed his cheeks and went to the bathroom and took a long and relaxing bath. I climbed out when I started getting prune and dried off and put on some shorts and a tank top. I walked into our room and saw him laying on the bed with the boys watching TV.
"And what are you boys doing?"
"We're watching pop eye so they can be big and strong." I laughed and turned the TV off and frowned at him.
"I had just got them to sleep." I sighed as he played with them and then got a serious face.
"Okay boys, mom said it's bed time. Off to bed!" I laughed as the giggled and cooed. I shook my head and smiled at them and grabbed Peter and made a fish face. He cooed and I grabbed the noose booger getter, in my words, and pumped out some of the congestion. I took him and put him in his basinet and then did the same with Travis. I kissed there cheeks and watched Paul do the same before we climbed into bed. I stretched and snuggled into him and immediately fell into a deep sleep.
"What are you doing?" I asked some time in the night and saw him walking back and forth with one of the boys. "Is he ok?"
"Yea, woke up fussy, go to sleep." I nodded and stretched before going back to sleep. I woke up again at 5am and sat up and stretched. I got up and went down stairs and started making coffee and made 3 waffles and a plate of eggs and bacon. I had just put the plates on the table when Paul walked in and kissed my cheek. I handed him a cup of coffee and orange juice and started making his lunch. I put some left over fish fry and bread inside his pail and filled up 3 jugs of water. I kissed him good bye and gave him his helmet and lunch. He got a job as a supervisor of a construction company in Port Angeles. I yawned and stretched before cleaning up and making some oatmeal and a glass of milk and went into our room and sat with the kids. I put them on our beds still asleep and then turned the TV on and got on my laptop. I turned it to them and snapped a picture and uploaded it. I also changed my status.
'Boys turn 1 month today :D! We're taking family photo's too :)'
I saw all my family and friends and the pack like it and heard Travis fus.
"I'm right here." I baby talked to him and kissed his cheeks. I picked up Peter and took a picture of us and made it my profile picture. i laughed when Paul liked it and wrote on his wall.
'Get to work babe!'
He liked it and then commented.
'I am wife, jeesh!'
I smiled wide at that and liked it before looking at my ring. In 8 months we were going to get married. Married! I heard the door bell and put the boys in their basinet before going to the door.
"I brought toys!" I laughed and hugged Autumn and Abi before letting them in. We went into the living room ad I got the basinets and rolled them into the room with us. Abi picked up Peter and kissed him on his cheek and he laughed and opened his mouth. Autumn picked up Travis and he cooed before relaxing in her arms and going to sleep.
"I think Peter is going to be a trouble maker."
"Yea, he's already making noise." i laughed as we turned the TV on and talked. I was so happy Abi was better. it took a whole week before she was up and running to normal from the vampire attack months ago. Ryann was so depressed and out of it until she woke up asking him why weren't they having sex.
"So pictures today!"
"Yea,We're wearing white and blue. I have the cutest little outfit for the boys." I said before going to get the outfits. They were white button up shirts with a light blue vest with cacki pants and little blue booties. They were going to match Paul and I had a blue dress shirt and cackis with a white vest. I showed the girls the outfit and laughed when they awed. There was a knock on the door and April was there blushing and smiling with Leah, Kim, Claire, and Emily.
"Look at my little butter balls!" Emily cooed as she kissed their cheeks and I shook my head and laughed.
"So they have their shots yet?"
"Yea. They get their next set next month." i went into the kitchen and took some frozen chicken breast from the fridge and made chicken fingers and made a garden salad. I called everyone in and fed the boys before feeding myself.
"How does it feel being a mom?"
"Sudden, but fun. They keep me wired." I played with Peter's toes and he laughed while I ate my salad. "I can't wait for yoga tomorrow."
"Yea me too." Abi said as she stretched and rubbed her stomach before eating another chicken finger. "So how's wedding planning going?"
"Great! It's going to be so big! I have your guys dresses picked out and Juliet is coming down here with her boyfriend next week to help me plan a little." I kissed Travis cheek as he yawned and took them back to their basinets. I laid their blankets on them as they stretched and nodded off to sleep. "I want to have them walking before we actually have the wedding. My two little ring barriers!" Abi laughed and hugged me before they all headed out. I pushed them back to our room and started getting ready. I laid out their outfits and then put their gifts away and took a quick shower. I put on my outfit and heard the door and pushed paul into the bathroom with his outfit before kissing him. By the time he was done, I had the boys dressed and put their booties on and then slicked their hair down.
"How about a mohawk?" Paul baby talked before he swooped Peter's hair into a mohawk. Peter cooed and kicked as I shook my head and put Travis in their car seats. We got Peter in his and Paul carried them to the car while I got their baby bags.
"So where is it again?"
"In Port Angeles. it's Babyographic." I read the name of the place and elbowed him when he laughed. We got there just in time for our pictures and laughed when the photographer help set up our kids. We took a shot with each kid, then just the kids, then us two, then all of us. By the time we were done it was time for dinner.
"Where should we eat?"
"I don't know. How about OutBack?" I pulled out the kids bottles and shook em before Paul grabbed them and the bag as we walked inside.
"How may I help you?" The host asked as he eyed me and then blanched at Paul who I heard growling.
"Two adults, two infants and can you heat these up for ten seconds each please?" He smiled andnodded and informed a server before handing them our bottles. He led us to a booth and I put Peter next to Paul and Travis next to me. The server came out and gave us our bottles.
"What can I get you?"
"I'll have a beer and onion rings."
"I'll have a sprite and mozzarella sticks." I smiled as she wrote down our food and walked away. I handed Paul a bottle and we fed the boys when a older lady came up to us.
"My, you are a cute little family!"
"Thank you mam." I smiled as her and her husband walked away. We got our drinks and appetizers when we ordered our meal.
"I'll have the rib eye medium rare with fries and a large side order of fries and she'll have a small side order of fries and the angus western burger with no onions." The waitor nodded and left and I smiled at Paul as he devoured his food while Peter cooed and sucked on his binky. I placed Travis in his car seat and started eating.
"So, you're dad is watching the boys tonight."
"Why?"
"He wants to see them. And I want some alone time." I blushed and smirked.
"You're a horn dog."
"You knew that already." I laughed and shook my head. I drooled a little when our food arrived and ate my food and looked at him and shook my head. He was already half way through his steak.
"You're cookings better." I smiled small and finished eating. He paid the bill and we got the boys situated in the car before we headed to my dad's. By the time we got there it was dusk.
"Look at my boys!" I laughed when dad picked them both up and kissed their cheeks. He kissed my cheek and nodded at Paul before he took the boys to his room.
"What time do you want us to pick them up?"
"Whenever you feel like it." I laughed and kissed his cheek.
"I'll come by to get them at 11."
"Ok. Bye honey."
"Bye dad." I got in the car and we drove home. I yawned and stretched before feeling myself carried inside the house. "I can walk you know."
"Yea, but I love carrying you." I laughed and giggled when he got the door open and laid me on the bed.
"I love when you carry me." I sighed and laughed when he laid beside me and curled against me. I snuggled into him and felt him move his hand to my breast and the other to my pants. "Paul!"
"The kids are at your dad's." He whispered and kissed me before we heard a howl.
"Fuck!" He sighed and I laughed when he got up and took his clothes off before running into our back yard. I stretched and turned the TV on and pulled out my laptop and logged on facebook when I heard a crash downstairs. I got out of bed and opened the door and walked to the living room.
"Hello." A thick russian accent said from behind me. I turned and saw a tall thin vampire with long brown hair and bright red eyes.
"What are you doing here?" I asked as I backed away from him and he stalked me to the couch. He pushed me to sit down and I gulped and shook a little and wondered where Paul was.
"He's out fighting my coven." I looked at him wide eyed and he nodded his head. "Comes in very handy."
"What do you want?" I asked as he leaned into me and inhaled.
"Collateral." I shook and prepared myself to jump when he grabbed my arm and smirked. "I go where you go."
"What do you want with me?" I heard a howl and snarl and felt my heart rate quicken.
"Their close. Almost here. You will come with me willingly. Or you will be forced." I tried to pull my arm away and cried out when he hit the back of my head before blacking out.
"You brought her here!"
"What did you suggest I do with her?"
"Not bring her here! They'll find us for sure!"
"No they wont. It's been 2 days. They won't find her here." I heard them say as I leaned up and saw myself chained to a room. There was a bed and a dresser as well as a tv. I sighed and tried to get the collar off my neck, but it zapped me.
"It won't come off with one of us." I heard the same russian accent say as he leaned against the door frame.
"Why did you bring me here?" I asked in a small voice.
"Collateral. They give us what we want and they cane have you."
"What is it you want?"
"The half breed." I looked at him confused before a image of the little girl with Jake hit me from so long ago. "Bingo."
"Why her?"
"She is an abomination. I want her killed and bled dry. You are a mate of one of those wolves and have even pupped two of them. They will give me what I want.
"No they won't."
"Oh, so you hold yourself at such little ranking?"
"No, I just know Paul knows me well enough that I would rather him fight for me.
"Oh so his death over that of someone who means nothing to you?"
"Ha! He'll rip you apart." I laughed as he growled and got in my face.
"I'd watch my tone if I were you." He backed away after pushing me in the chest and then leaving and locking the door. I sighed and curled into myself before turning on the TV. 2 days? I've been gone that long? I saw a girl come in and put a tray of bread and water on the dresser and then leave. I went to it and heard my stomach grumble before eating and drinking the water. I felt a odd taste before feeling my body slacken. Dammit. I felt myself sway and went to the bed and laid down.

"Paul calm down."
"No. You're woman isn't out there with god knows what doing god knows what to her!" I yelled as I flipped the table over and knocked off Emily's muffins. I heard the boys cry and went to them and nuzzled their faces. 3 days. 3 fucking days and no sign of her. Not a damn thing! I felt myself shaking before Emily came in with a tap.
"This was in the mailbox with no return address." I smelt her on the tape. We all did. I yanked it from her and put it in and felt my self shake. She had a collar on her neck and was tied and at on a bed. I saw a slick looking leech get in front of her and smile.
"No that we have your attention, let's get on with the demands. The hybrid for the girl. I know she is valued to you. Just deliver the girl and we will be more than happy to give this woman too you. I will give you 3 more days from now. If you do not deliver I will start sending her back to you piece by piece until consequently she will be dead." I saw Tali move the gag from her mouth.
"Don't do it! It's a trap! Get the others-" I saw one of them hit her in the back of the head and started shaking when she whimpered and went limp.
"Do not dissapoint." He smiled before it cut off. I felt a arm on my shoulder and saw Peter looking at me quizzically. I have to bring her back. I have to. I sighed and whimpered.
"What did she mean others?" Ryann asked as Autumn and Abi looked at each other and realization dawned on them. I saw April get the bottlewarmed up for the boys and heard Jakes phone go off.
"Autumn she said they will be here tomorrow."
"What's going on?" Leah asked as we all looked at the girls.
"I think she meant the others. I don't know if this plan is going to work, but it's worth a shot." Autumn said as she hung up the phone.
"What plan?" I asked as I thought of Tali's smiling face.
"We give them the hybrid."
