Chapter 13
***Thirty-seven weeks***
Sitting at home, Dia is with me and Happy and Marcus are on call. Tessa is sitting in the floor coloring and I am rubbing my stomach. "You okay mija?" Dia asks. "I think so. These two are trying to tear me apart." I tell her. Tessa walks over and rubs my stomach and says "Be good for your mami." and they calm down. "You're going to make an amazing tia Tessa." I tell her and she smiles. I stand up and head to the bathroom but before I make it there, my water breaks. "Thank God." I say before calling for Dia. She walks in and sees my wet clothes. "My water broke." We get me changed and head to the car. "Can I call Papi?" Tessa asks and Dia hands Tessa her burner and she calls Marcus. "Papi, the babies are coming." she says. She listens to him a minute and says "See you there." before hanging up. "He's on his way to the hospital. Said he'd see us there." she says. She hands Dia back her phone and I pick mine up and call Happy. "Hey babe. You okay?" he asks. "Yeah just your kids trying to make a break for it." I tell him. "Really?" he asks excited. "Yeah babe. My water broke." I tell him. "I'm on my way." he tells me and I smile.
Seven hours later, we are sitting in our hospital room, holding both of our babies. "So what did you name them Lass?" Chibs asks. "Tiana Marie and Ryder James." I tell them and they all smile. "Where did you get the name Tiana?" Rat asks. "Tessa picked it." I tell him and they all smile. Rat looks at Tessa and says "You did good little bit." and we all laugh.
A few days later, we are sitting at home and have both babies in their swings. I am on the couch with Happy and we are snuggled up and just watching them. "Who knew I would go from being beaten to finding someone that loves me and having two beautiful babies?" I ask. "I know. All because you had to be hidden." he tells me and I can't help the smile that crosses my face.
