Chapter 12
Night 3 wasn't so bad, just a little bit of vomiting and anger issues with the Museum being too noisy.
Night 4 wasn't all that bad either, I actually had a little relief because my bladder wasn't under so much pressure anymore, even though I was demanded to drink lots of water and go on walks through the museum for mine and the babies health. Larry told me I could probably go see the doctors again so they could figure out the gender of my twins. I shrugged it off. I'd rather it be a surprise.
Night 5 was kind of an awesome night...

"Oh my goodness, Noemi" Jed smiled as he felt my bulging stomach of doom.
I giggled as I felt the twins hiccup inside my tummy. It was not so much painful as it was beautiful and adorable.
"It is quite a wondrous thing, my lady" Octavius said as he also felt the babies move around.
Teddy and Papa Columbus also joined in at feeling the miraculous movements, both of them smiling.
"So beautiful" Teddy smiled gleefully, tears threatening to fall down his cheek.
Papa nodded as a rusty streak appeared down his.
When Amenrah came back from the food court, everyone made way for him so he could also feel the babies. He knelt down in front of me and placed his two hands on either side of my stomach. There was a soft bop against his hand and another one following in suit. This made him smile joyously and lean in closer to my stomach, softly nuzzling it with care.
I smiled and petted his head, feeling the twins heartbeats become rapid with happiness at their fathers touch. This night only made me love and care for them more.

Night 6 was when my abdomen started hurting a lot, so I continued to rest and eat, and walk for exercise.
Night 7...oh god. The kicking. It would be bad enough having one being all jerky and moving around and kicking you in the stomach, but two was just unbearable. I couldn't get up out of bed except to go to the bathroom. And everyone had to be extra quiet because the twins could hear now. I only allowed Amenrah in my room that night so we could sit and talk to the babies. I would also let them listen to soft music via headphones and sighed as they would settle down after that.
Night 8...

I groaned in pain as I felt the twins move around. It was hard to breath, my ribs were pushing outwards and it put me in absolute agony. I took slow deep breathes, hoping neither of them would make any sudden movements.
"Are you alright Noemi?" Jed asked.
"Shh" I hushed him, not wanting the twins to get excited.
"Are you alright?" he whispered.
"It's just hard to breathe" I told him, breathing slowly.
"We should probably pack her bags" Octavius told Jed "she only has one more night before delivery"
"I don't need a doctor" I said, trying to stay calm.
"You do, Noemi, you can't make it without assistance" Amenrah told me.
I felt anger rising in my veins.
"I don't need one and that's final, If you don't drop it, I'll be going into labor right now" I growled.
Everyone stayed quiet. But Jed and Octavius sneakily readied my bags for the hospital without my knowing. After a while I was left to sleep in my bed alone as the three men walked out.
"I think tomorrow night is it. We need to get her to see one of those Smithsonian doctors you mentioned, Larry" Amenrah told him.
"No, we can't. we'll just take her to a new hospital that hasn't seen her before" Larry told them.
"Why?" they asked.
"Because there is no way we can break into that place. If we do the cops will be swarming the museum and then Noemi won't be able to give birth..." Larry stopped and gulped "Do you really want Noemi to give birth in a disgusting, unclean, jail?"
Everypne went silent. That was unspeakable.
"No. I don't" Amenrah said, bowing his head.
"Then we got to pick out a hospital. I'll do that. Get her ready, pack a few of her things. We have to be prepared" Larry told them.
They all nodded or saluted.
"Columbus, make sure everyone will be out of the way tomorrow night, Rexy will help" Larry pointed them out.
Columbus bowed his head and Rexy wagged his tail.
"Teddy, we're going to need your help carrying her out to my car" Larry told the ex president.
"I will use every ounce of strength I have to do so" he nodded.
"Jed, Octavius. You two will also help carry her to the car along with Ahkmenrah. And you three will be going with me" Larry said.
"You got it Gigantor!" Jed smiled.
"Yes, My liege" Octavius bowed.
There was a loud cry from me inside my room, everyone could hear it, there was silence and frozen bodies everywhere. The six men turned and looked at my room in shock.
"She can't be...it's too early" Jed began to panic.
"Noemi!" Amenrah called and ran for my room.
I held my stomach when they entered, I could feel the twins suddenly dropping towards my pelvis, but I hadn't broken my water yet. I didn't get it.
"Oh god, are you going into labor child?" Teddy asked.
"No...I don't think so. They're moving towards there though" I whimpered and clutched my moving stomach.
"Hang in there Noemi" Jed said, holding my hand.
"One more night" Octavius whispered and put a hand on my shoulder.
I cried out as all the movement stopped and my stomach was finally settled even though it became relevant that my bladder had to be drained, and I was in massive amounts of pain.
