The Birth of two Winchesters.
Shall we leave them there? Or will we continue to peer into their lives? Let me know what you think
Thanks for the reviews, follows and favourites.
Sam went bounding up the stairs while Bobby stood with his hand on Dean's shoulder.
"Dean, you can do this. It's what you've always wanted, here," he said touching Dean's chest with his other hand, "think of the things you've done, dammit, you're the bravest guy I know, why are you so scared of becoming a father?"
"I always fuck things up, Bobby, you know that. What about those lives? How can I not fuck up with them?"
"You will know in your heart what to do, just like you did with Sammy. You didn't fuck up with him. He's a fine man. A bit of a nerd, but otherwise…you need to harden up Dean, or you'll be of no use to anyone. Cas isn't an idiot either; he will be a great mother, father, whatever. Now, let's get to the birth of these grandchildren of mine."
They went up the stairs together and Dean thought over what Bobby had said.
It was true that he had no idea how to care for Sammy; it was just common sense and love.
And, shit! He was gonna have twins! Guess he was as virile as he thought. His chest heaved and puffed out a little. Holy shit! He thought, look what I've done.
Bobby and Dean were given blue cotton gowns to put on, and ridiculous looking puffy hats for their heads. Dean smiled at Cas and went over to him, leaning his head down next to him, kissing his cheek.
"I love you so much, Cas" he smiled as Cas reached for his hand,
"Dean, I love you more than you could ever know."
Suddenly there was a bit of sniffling from Ellen and masculine coughing and feet shuffling.
Dr Robert smiled at the family and said
"I'm going to begin the procedure now, anyone with a weak stomach look away or leave. Everyone ok with this? Cas? Dean? Are you ok with everyone being here?"
Cas and Dean nodded together.
"This is our family," Cas smiled. Dr Robert had draped Cas with sheets, and Ellen was helping by painting antiseptic lotion over Cas.
"Ok Everyone, here we go." Dr Robert said as he grabbed a sterilised scalpel from the tray and sliced gently through Cas' skin. Dean couldn't watch and Cas patted his hand comfortingly,
"It is not causing me any pain, Dean."
But Sam was fascinated.
"This is a C-section, right Doc? "
"Ah, someone has done some reading. I prefer to make the horizontal or "bikini" incision in the lower abdomen. It's called a "Pfannenstiehl" incision, and besides being cosmetically superior to the up-and- down midline incision, it also heals better and hurts less during recovery.
"Will we be able to see the babies in the womb?"
"Sam," Dean growled, "Will you shut up? Don't distract the Doc, ok?"
Dr Robert grinned,
"If it's ok with the parents, everyone can have a quick look, ok?"
Ellen grabbed a mirror for Cas to look into, as Dr Robert got through the last layer and parted them to show the babies each lying in their own little sac, side by side.
There was a complete and utter silence until Ellen started to sob,
"Oh how beautiful they are, dear little angels,"
Bobby put his arm around her, and sniffed conspicuously.
Dean's eyes were full of tears, as Cas asked
"What do you think of them, Dean?"
"I can't see them yet; I must be allergic to all that damn disinfectant."
Ellen came around to him and patted his eyes with tissues.
Dean cleared his throat and stammered,
"They look perfect to me."
Dr Robert said,
"Ok, enough gawking, I'm gonna get them out now."
"Now, this will be intense. There'll be blood and fluids and screaming."
"Screaming? Who's gonna be screaming?" Dean was as white as the bed sheets.
"The babies, and it's the most beautiful sound in the world, Cas, you're gonna feel some pressure, you've graced out the pain, right?"
Sam looked at Cas' face which was serene and happy.
"Jesus, Cas looks stoned." He snickered.
"Sam do not blaspheme, and I am not stoned, I am relaxing in my grace."
"Yeah, Sam" snarled Dean "He is in a blissful state, so don't bug him."
Dean sat in a chair next to Cas' head, ran his fingers through his hair, as Dr Robert and Ellen
passed instruments back and forth between them.
Dr Robert had a gloved hand inside of Cas, and was pulling back,
"Cas, you ok? " Dean said, eyeing the proceedings with misgiving.
"I am fine Dean; baby is coming now, look."
A loud mewling sound started as Dr Robert pulled out the first baby.
Everyone cheered as he announced,
"It's a girl."
Oh she's beautiful, thought Dean, as his heart took a giant leap and his eyes filled with tears again.
Dean and Cas were checking out the baby as she lay on Cas 'stomach when Dr Robert said,
"Dean come and cut the cord of your first born."
Dean was surprised to see how long the cord was, but took the weirdly shaped scissors and snipped quickly where Dr Robert was pointing.
Cas was patting the baby and Ellen brought over towels to help dry her off. This was accomplished by Dean and Cas, as Dr Robert drove his hand up into Cas again.
There wasn't a dry eye in the place when the loud squalling started as the baby came out, and Dr Robert said
"This one is a boy."
Dean looked stunned. I've got a son, he thought, Oh God, I have a son. He turned to Cas as the baby was placed on Cas' stomach.
"We've got one of each, Cas, how did we manage that?" he beamed and leaned in for a kiss,
thank you my love."
"Dean, cord cutting is required." Dean snipped where he was told to, and went back to drying off his son, as Dr Robert started the putting back together of Cas.
Ellen came over to congratulate the couple, crying unashamedly as she hugged them both.
Sam asked if he could help drying the babies, and Ellen handed him the little girl.
Sam smiled at her and cooed,
"Hello, little sweetheart, I'm Sam, your uncle, and you are just beautiful, yes you are."
He rubbed gently at her hair, which remained very light as it dried.
"I think she looks like me," he said proudly, as the rest of them laughed.
The boy's hair was dark, like Cas'. It was thick and shiny.
Bobby was wandering around checking the babies out, and finally blurted
"You two have done a damned fine job with these babies. They're wonderful,"
he sniffed, as Ellen came over and patted his eyes too.
Dr Robert had finished putting Cas back together and stitching, so Dean helped him to sit up and take a good look at the babies.
"Ellen," said Dr Robert, "I brought baby scales with me; I think we should weigh and measure them."
He left the room and returned with the scales.
"Dean? It's tradition for Dad to be present during the weighing and measuring. Can you bring the babies over here, please?"
Ellen had wrapped the babies in their little blankets, and Dean picked up his son and kissed his forehead.
"Hey buddy, I'm your Dad." He brought the baby up next to his face to cuddle him, saying softly
"I love you; I'll always be here for you."
Sam had picked up the little girl and carried her over to Dr Robert.
The boy was weighed first; he was spot on 6lbs, and 20 inches long.
The girl was also 6lbs and 19 inches long.
Dean picked up his daughter and introduced himself.
"Hello lovely one, I'm your Dad." He also brought her up next to his face for a cuddle, and assured her softly,
"I love you; I'll always be here for you."
"Hey Cas!" Dean said loudly, "We have to pick some names!"
Dr Robert was all packed up and ready to move along. He was working the room, hugging, patting, and kissing Ellen soundly as Bobby looked jealous. He came over to Dean and Cas, congratulated them and asked Dean to text him the babies' names when they finally decided on them.
Sam cleared his throat and announced
"I've put the babies in the crib, they're sleeping, we're going downstairs now to see Dr Robert off and get Cas some tea."
He herded the rest of them out of the room, and quietly closed the door.
Dean and Cas just looked at each other and they both cried in each other's arms.
"Oh Cas, we did it. We have our own family now. I've never been so happy, all thanks to you."
He leaned over and wiped Cas' happy tears away, leaning in to kiss him. Cas responded eagerly and slipped his tongue into Dean's mouth, making him groan. Dean pulled back suddenly,
"Cas? You just gave birth, what are you doing? You know I love you, you know I love having sex with you, but don't you think it's a bit soon?"
"Why Dean? I am fine, look." Cas pulled back the sheets to reveal his flat stomach with no trace of any stitches, no scar, nothing to show that he'd just had twins." I healed myself, Dean. I didn't want to hurt Dr Robert's feelings so I let him do his work."
Dean was astonished as Cas swung his legs over the side of the bed and stood up.
"Do you feel ok?" holding onto his arm, touching his forehead, checking for a fever.
Cas grasped Dean's arm and grinned excitedly.
"Let's go and name our babies, Dean?"
Dean smiled and puffed his chest out,
"Just call me big Daddy."
They finally walked downstairs, each carrying a baby in their arms, and strolled over to the table where
The rest of the family jumped up and exclaimed at seeing Cas up and about already.
"Cas is fine; he is all healed up with angel mojo."
Dean says proudly.
"We have decided on the babies names." Cas said, beaming at them all.
"This little girl is Samantha Ellen " Dean said quietly as Sam jumped to hug them
"Dean? You named her after me?"
"And me?" Ellen is wiping tears from her eyes.
'Sam, I told you we would name a daughter Samantha
"Yeah but I thought it was a joke man I'm stoked."
" Ellen, we couldn't think of a better way to thank you for all your help." Dean hugged her.
Cas cleared his throat, beamed at Dean and said,
"Our son will be called Robert John after his Grandfathers."
Bobby was dumbstruck and sat with his jaw hanging open.
"You named my grandson after me? I'm honoured, thank you both."
He walked around the table and being careful not to touch the babies, gently hugged both Dean and Cas.
