Chapter 10: The Girls
Today's the day. I sit and wait for my confidence to come. I turn to Alli who holds her phone out in front of my face.
"Clare…just call her already."
I take the phone from Alli and dial my mother's number.
"Alli? Is everything alright? How's Clare?"
I take in a deep breath, but before I can speak my mother's voice cuts me off.
"Hello, Alli, are you there?"
"Mom. It's me."
"Clare?" she asks.
"Hi Mom." I smile.
"How are you? How's the baby?"
"Everything's fine, but could you come and see me?"
"If everything's fine why do you need me to come there? Clare Diane Edwards are you lying to me?"
"No…I'm not lying. I'm just scared."
"Why? Did you find out the sex of the baby?"
"Ye-yeah." I reply.
"Well?"
"Girls."
Her breath hitches, "Girls?"
"Yes."
"As in…"
I cut her off, "Twins."
"Wow."
"Twins!"
"I have to call you back mom." I hang up. Alli takes her phone and leaves the room.
"Twins!"
I shyly turn to Eli. "Hi Eli."
"Twins?" he exclaims.
"Say something else!"
"Why didn't you tell me?"
"Because…"
He walks to me, "Why? Why didn't you tell me?"
"I was scared. Scared you wouldn't want them. Scared you'd leave me. Scared."
"Nothing would make me leave you."
I look up at him and through blurry eyes I see his smile.
"I almost lost you twice. No way I'm going to lose you for real."
"You…you mean that?" I whisper. He kisses my cheek and then lightly kisses my lips.
"I mean it like I meant it when I said I'll love you forever."
"Thank God! I don't think I could do this alone!" I smile.
"I wouldn't let you."
"So, do you know what they are?" Eli asks. I nod.
"Two girls."
"Well Alli and Fiona are going to spoil them."
"Yeah, and you, Adam, and Mark are going to protect them." I smile.
"Well, I don't want my daughters falling for a hearse driving no good boy!"
"Like you?" I joke.
"Exactly."
He kisses me.
