When Brittany woke up, they talked for a while about names until finally, the nurses came back, carrying their two beautiful baby girls. One was passed to Sam and the other to Brittany.
"She's Melody Grace Evans." Brittany said with complete certainty as she looked down at her daughter for the first time. Sam nodded in agreement and looked down at his other daughter thoughtfully.
"Harmony Jade Evans." He said and Brittany agreed. It wasn't until later that they realised how their daughters' names matched.
Brittany was released from the hospital a few days later and the happy couple made their way home in silence. Their lives were about to change dramatically. They were both eager to put their children into their beds and get some rest but waiting for them were both of their families and the other glee kids.
"Welcome home, guys!" The waiting guests cried as the weary couple came in from the garage, carrying their beautiful sleeping daughters.
"Hi." Brittany said, hugging everyone.
"What's her name?" Tina asked, looking down at the baby in Brittany's arms. Clearly she hadn't seen the other baby that Sam was carrying yet.
"This is Melody Grace and Sam has Harmony Jade." Brittany watched as confusion crossed Tina's face and then disappeared when Sam stepped into her view.
"Twins! Why didn't you tell us, Brittany?" Marley asked. Brittany laughed and looked at Sam.
"Nobody knew, not even Sam. I wanted to keep it a surprise." she explained. As she finished talking Melody began to whimper and cry. Brittany bounced her to try and calm her down but she just cried harder.
"Take them to bed, guys. We can wait to meet them until later." Susan told Brittany and Sam. They nodded and silently walked to the nursery, putting the crying babies: Harmony had started crying too, into their cribs. Brittany set the baby monitor down on the table in the middle and clipped the receiver to her belt before following Sam back out to the group of waiting people. For what seemed like hours, everyone stayed in the crowded living room, asking questions about the babies and what Sam and Brittany's lives would be like from now on.
"Well, I guess we'd probably better be going. I can see you two need rest, especially before school starts back up next week." Mr Schue said, getting up. The new directions kids began to nod, agreeing with their teacher and slowly, the small house emptied out until only Susan was left.
"I've put some pasta in the fridge for you guys. I know you probably don't feel up to cooking much today so I thought I'd bring some over for you." she told them, hugging Brittany.
"Thanks, mom." she said and waved as she watched her mom heading across the lawn to her car. She was holding Melody who had woken up a little while ago and Sam had his arms wrapped protectively around them both, leaning his chin on Brittany's shoulder. They waved as Susan pulled out of the driveway and shut the door, locking it behind them. Sam sighed and took the baby from Brittany, cooing at the gurgling angel while Brittany watched.
"You're so good with them already." she said with a smile at her fiancée. He grinned back at her.
"It's like I was born to be a dad." he told her and she laughed, heading into the kitchen to heat up their dinner. All she really wanted to do was eat some good food and go to sleep. Sam knew exactly what she was thinking and went to put Melody back in her crib. He came back after a moment and the two of them spent a quiet evening eating their dinner at the kitchen bench, talking about what they were going to do now.
