The Finale


This takes place five months after Lots of Happiness. As we approach the end of this series, the gang becomes reflective. They reflect on the events in which brought them all together. How they made the decisions that changed their lives. Cody and Georgia have had their baby. Now Andy and Prue get ready for their babies.


Andy watched as Prue made a fuss over little Cody Jr. They were visiting Cody and Georgia. The baby was now two months old. Andy smiled as she walked back and forth across the living room with the baby. She couldn't wait for the twins arrival. Although they were ready for their children, they only had a name for one. They had spent months trying to come up with another name for the second baby, but they weren't crazy about a lot of names. Naming one of the babies Georgia was something she thought about from the moment she found out that she was pregnant. She had given it a lot of thought and discussed it with Andy. He loved the idea. But coming up with the second name wasn't as easy. They had a few names in mind, but were hesitant about them. When Prue grew tired of walking back and forth across the living room, she walked into the kitchen with the baby.
Georgia was cleaning when she walked in. Despite them having money, they didn't hire anyone to clean for them on a regular basis. Prue and Georgia preferred to clean themselves. They only had someone clean when they were away. Georgia smiled as Prue entered with the baby in her arms.
"He's gonna be so spoiled," she said.
"I know. I can't help it. I'm crazy about this little guy. Plus, I really like being a godmother."
"I can tell," Georgia said smiling.
"I never asked you this, but you don't mind that I made Phoebe and Piper the godmothers do you?"
"Oh of course not. One of the babies is named after me. I'm honored."
"Really?"
"Yes!"
"I wanted to include all of you and try to be fair."
"And you are. They didn't mind when you made me your maid of honor."
"True."
"You made me your maid of honor and named one of the babies after me. That's everything to me Prue. Plus, they're your sisters. They're closer to you too. You did right."
"I know there was a reason I loved you," Prue said smiling.
"I am sweet aren't I?"
"Yes you are."
Seconds later, while Georgia had her back to her, she felt something weird. She wasn't in pain, but all of a sudden, liquid began to trickle down her legs and on to the kitchen floor.
"Oh my God."
Georgia turned around and noticed.
"Okay. Let me take the baby," she said going over to her.
"And you just cleaned up in here."
"I'm quite sure that you didn't do it on purpose," Georgia said, grinning.
"Oh boy."
"Don't worry about anything," she said taking the baby from Prue's arms.
She casually walked out of the kitchen and into the living room.
"Guys, Prue's water broke."
Andy got up and she stood in front of him.
"Relax please. She's not feeling any pain yet. Labor takes hours. There's no need to rush or make her nervous about this. Just stay calm. Okay Andy?"
"I'll try."
Andy ran into the kitchen. When he entered, Prue was on her hands and knees scrubbing the floor.
"Prue, what are you doing?"
"I had to clean this spot. My water broke."
Andy shook his head.
"Prue, your in labor. Why are you cleaning the floor?"
"I just told you why."
"Georgia would have done that."
"I know, but she just cleaned this kitchen."
"Come on. We're going to the hospital."
Georgia came back into the kitchen just as Prue was getting up off the floor.
"Prue, I told you I was gonna clean that up."
"Now you don't have to."
"You're a mess y'know that," Georgia said.
"I know."
"Cody's gonna go with Andy to get your things and then we'll head to the hospital."
"Are you gonna be okay until I get back?"
"Yeah. I'm not in any pain."
"Are you sure?"
"Andy sweetie, calm down. You're sweating."
"I'm just nervous."
"I can see that."
"You ready Andy?" Cody asked as he entered the kitchen.
"Yeah."
Andy looked into Prue's eyes and touched her face.
"I love you," he said softly.
"I love you too sweetie."
Andy gave her a soft peck on the lips before leaving.

Piper dialed Cody and Georgia's phone number just as Leo went into the bathroom to take a shower. The phone rang three times before anyone answered.
"Hello."
"Hey Pipe."
"Hey, how's everything?"
"Well, Prue's in labor."
"Really?"
"Yeah. She's fine now, but her water just broke."
"Is she in any pain?"
"No, not yet."
"Is she home?"
"No. She's sitting right here. Cody and Andy went to the house to get her things. Then we're heading to the hospital. Cody's gonna stay here with the baby until my Mom gets here then he'll leave. You wanna speak to her?"
"Yeah."
Georgia handed the phone to Prue before going to check on the baby.
"Hey Pipe."
"How are you holding up?"
'I'm okay."
"So no pain yet huh?"
"Nope. Not that I'm looking forward to it."
"How's Andy?"
"He's a nervous wreck. He was sweating bullets when he left here."
"I figured," Piper said, laughing."
"So, how's your vacation coming along?" Prue asked.
"Just wonderful."
Piper talked to Prue until Andy came back. She still wasn't in any pain, but Piper knew that it wouldn't be long. Before hanging up with Prue, she told her that she and Leo would be there tomorrow. Leo stepped out of the shower just as she was hanging up.
"Who were you talking to?"
"Prue and Georgia."
"When is she gonna have those babies?" He asked sitting next to her.
"Today."
"Really?"
"Yeah. Her water broke. They're on their way to the hospital."
"We gotta get out there."
"I told them that we'll be there tomorrow."
"I still can't believe Andy's gonna be a father."
"I know. I still can't believe I'm actually friends with him and Prue."

Hours later, Phoebe picked up the phone. Cole was kissing her neck. He didn't want her to answer the phone. While she talking on the phone, he ran his hands up and down her thighs.
"Where are you?" Phoebe asked Georgia.
"I'm at the hospital. Prue went into labor a few hours ago."
"Really?"
"Yeah. She didn't start having contractions until she got here."
"How is she?"
"She's doing pretty good. It's Andy who's a mess. I just called Prue's parents and Andy's Mom."
"Have you talked to Piper?"
"Yeah. She called when Prue was still at the house. She said that she and Elliot are flying in tomorrow."
"So, who's with the baby?"
"My mom."
"Cole, Prue's about to have the babies."
"Is that Andy?"
"Georgia."
"Is that Cole being nosy?"
"Yeah. Actually, he's attacking me."
"Cody does that when I'm on the phone too."
"They're terrible."
"I know."
" So, if Prue wasn't in pain, why did you guys take her to the hospital?"
"Her water broke."
"Oh. Well, we should be flying out within the week."
"Okay. I'll call back when she has the babies."
"Okay. Give her a kiss for me."
"I will."
When Phoebe hung up the phone, she and Cole looked at each other and smiled.
"So, she's finally having those babies huh?"
"Yeah."
"She was supposed to have them last week right?"
"Yep."
"Andy's gonna be a father."
"I remember when I first met the two of them. I was sitting next to Prue and somehow we just started talking. I knew that she was crazy about Andy just by looking at her while he was on stage."
"I knew that he was crazy about her when he couldn't stop talking about her," Cole said smiling.
"Now they're married and about to start a family."
"That's gonna be us one day."
"I hope so," Phoebe said as Cole leaned in to kiss her.

Prue squeezed Andy's hand as he informed her that the contraction was almost over. The pain was becoming more and more intense, but the doctor said that it could be hours before she delivers. Georgia went to call everyone to tell them that she was finally about to have the babies, and Cody kept running to get her some ice chips. When she stopped squeezing Andy's hand, he dabbed her face with a rag.
"Here's more ice chips," Cody said, coming back into the room.
"Thanks Cody," Andy and Prue said in unison.
Cody handed her the cup of ice and sat in the chair next to the bed.
"Prue, we need to figure out what we're gonna name the other baby," Andy said, caressing her hand.
"I know. I just can't think right now."
"Then, we'll think for you," Cody said.
"I just called everybody," Georgia said, walking back into the room.
"Thanks," Prue said, while sucking on a piece of ice.
"How about the name Josie?" Cody said.
"I don't think so," Andy said.
"You don't like that name?" Prue asked.
"It's all right, but…"
"Grace?" Georgia said.
"Nah," Prue said.
"Gretel."
"What's up with you and these G names?" Andy asked.
"I don't know," Georgia said, grinning.

Minutes later, Prue squeezed Andy's hand again. She was having another contraction. Andy kept telling her to practice breathing exercises but that was becoming harder for her to do. She wanted to scream. As Andy kept telling her to breath, she found herself becoming irritated. She was breathing. What was he going on about? She knew that he meant well, but the more he told her to breath, the more irritated she became. She was sure it was just the pain, not just him. She was grateful that Georgia came over to her and told her to relax as much as possible.
"Prue, I know you're in a lot of pain, but whenever you have a contraction, try not to tense up. Stay loose."
"I'll try," she said with her face frowned up.
"Okay, it's almost over," Andy said, looking at the machine.
Seconds later, she eased up on his hand. Andy sighed in relief as she loosened her grip.
"Want me to get you some ice for that hand Andy?"
"Yeah, that would be good."
"Come on."
"I thought you were going for me."
"I think it'll do you good to go for a walk."
"I can't leave Prue."
"Yes you can. I'll be fine. Besides, Georgia's here."
"Are you sure?"
"Yes, sweetie."
"All right. I'll be right back."
"Take your time sweetie. I'm not going anywhere."
Andy gave her a kiss on the lips and left the room with Cody. Prue sighed and put her hands on her stomach.
"You think he could tell you were trying to get rid of him?"
"Was it that obvious?" Prue asked.
"Yeah. I was the same way with Cody. I think it's only natural for us to get a little angry with the guy. Considering how much pain you have to go through."
"I'm just ready for them to come out already."
"I know the feeling."
After getting a small cup of ice, Andy sat down.
"What's wrong?"
"I'm tired. She's the one who's in labor, but I'm the one who's tired. Does that make any sense?"
"Yeah. Hand squeezing takes a lot out of you."
Andy smiled and shook his head. He got up from the chair in the hall and he and Cody headed back to the room.

The next Morning, Elliot got a call from Georgia. She informed him that Prue hadn't had the babies yet, but it shouldn't be too much longer. After hanging up with her, he rolled over and stared at Heidi. Her back was to him, but he watched her for a few minutes before waking her up. He placed his hand on her waist, moved closer to her, and began softly kissing her shoulder until she woke up. She slowly turned over on her back and opened her eyes.
"Good morning."
"I love waking up to this gorgeous face in the morning," Heidi said.
"I was thinking the same thing."
She smiled and he gave her a kiss on the lips.
"I just got off the phone with Georgia."
"Did Prue have the babies?"
"Not yet."
"Oh my God."
"I know."
"Well, I guess we should get up and start packing."
"Yeah, I don't wanna wait till tonight."
As he got out of bed and walked across the room, Heidi smiled to herself. She didn't want to get ahead of herself, but felt that she finally found her soul mate. Not only did they have fun, but they were really into each other. He put her first, which was something she wasn't used to. Before dating him, she confided in Georgia about being scared to date him. She had had feelings for him for a while and she wanted things to go as smoothly as possible. Georgia told her to go for it. She had the same feelings for Cody, but decided to take a chance on him and it turned out to be the best thing she did. After talking to Georgia, she told Elliot that she was ready for a serious relationship and that she had no desire to be with anyone but him. He was moved and she could see it in his eyes. Elliot also confided in Georgia about his feelings and she told Heidi so. Georgia knew that Elliot was getting tired of meaningless relationships and loveless sex. He was ready to settle down finally. She saw this over the years which made her decision to be with him easier.

Hours later, Phoebe, Cole, Piper and Leo arrived at the hospital just after Prue was taken into the delivery room. Their flight hadn't been for a couple more hours, but the earlier flight had had cancellations and so they were able to squeeze on that plane. They saw Cody as they walked down the hall of the hospital.
"Hey Cody," Leo said.
"Hey guys. We weren't expecting you until later."
"Well, we couldn't wait," Phoebe said.
"How is she?" Leo asked.
"She's finally about to have them. They just took her in the delivery room."
"How's Andy holding up?" Cole asked.
"I'm not sure. He's been getting on Prue's nerves. She was yelling at him."
"Kinda like Georgia was with you huh?" Phoebe asked.
"Yeah, but worst."
"I'm sure she'll be all right after she has the babies," Cole pointed out.
"She will," Cody said.

Andy frowned his face in pain as Prue tightened her grip on his hand. Georgia held the video camera steady. She focused it on the both of them. Prue wanted the birth to be video taped, but she didn't want Georgia to video tape the babies coming out of her. Georgia had tears forming in her eyes when Prue pushed the first baby out. The baby wasn't cleaned off yet, but she was beautiful. The doctor held her up and informed them that it was girl, although they already knew. Prue's grip on Andy's hand loosened just a little as she laid back. Georgia got a close up of the baby and then the proud parents. While she was being cleaned up, the doctor told Prue to push again. She sat up with what little strength she had left and began to push. With her right hand, Georgia wiped her tears from her eyes, but kept the camera on them. A minute later, the second baby had arrived into the world. Andy was all smiles. Prue was too tired to smile. She laid back and sighed in relief that it was finally over. She'd been in labor for twenty-two hours. She was starting to drift off to sleep until they handed her the first baby. She looked at her first born with tears in her eyes.
"Zoë," she said, with tears in her eyes.
"What?" Andy asked.
"I like the name Zoë."
"I do too."
"Then Zoë it is."
Andy gazed at her and they kissed. Georgia zoomed in on the kiss. When they pulled apart, Andy was handed the second baby, Georgia. Prue looked from Zoë to Georgia with tears streaming from her eyes.
"Aren't they beautiful?" Andy said to Prue.
"Yes they are."
When Andy looked over at Georgia, she gave him a thumbs up signal and a smiled. Andy smiled and returned his gaze to his children. He gave little Georgia a sweet kiss on the cheeks before handing her to Prue.
As the gang sat and waited, Andy came out and told them that she had the babies. He was a little surprised to see Phoebe, Cole, and Leo there, but he was glad to see them. They all hugged him and congratulated him as they had when they broke the news that Prue was expecting twins.
"You have two girls now," Cody said.
"Yep. Zoë and Georgia."
"It's about time you guys decided on a name," Phoebe said.
"Yeah, I know."
"Who's the oldest?" Cole asked.
"Zoë came out first."
"That's a pretty name," Phoebe said.
"Thanks. Well, I gotta get back in there. I'll see you guys later."

The next day, Elliot and Heidi arrived at the hospital with balloons and flowers. Prue was holding Georgia and Andy was holding Zoë. Heidi went over to Prue as Elliot tried to think of an unoccupied space for the flowers to go. Heidi put her hand to her heart as she stared into the baby's face. She was absolutely adorable. Prue handed the baby to her.
Heidi held her in her arms and began to caress the baby's dark hair with the tips on her fingers.
"They're so beautiful."
"Aren't they?" Elliot said, as he held Zoë in his arms.

Minutes later, the rest of the gang entered they room with balloons and flowers. The room was covered with them. Elliot wondered where the rest would go. When Leo walked over to Elliot, he handed him the baby. When Leo held the baby, Elliot went over to Heidi and his god daughter, Georgia. Phoebe and Cody were Zoë's god parents, and Elliot and Piper were little Georgia's. Prue looked around the room. She smiled thinking of how  close they were. Despite the geographical distance between them, they all remained close. Prue was thankful for everyone in the room with her. Especially her husband Andy, and her daughters, Zoë and Georgia. Only people who were missing were her father and Andy's mother. They had talked to her and assured her that they would be seeing her later that night. It was no big deal. She was content with the people who were in the room with her and her new family. They were her very best friends in the world. As they all made a fuss over the twins, Andy got up from his chair by the window and sat beside Prue on the bed. Piper stood near the bed with Georgia in her arms.
"You look really happy," Prue said to Piper.
"I have a god daughter," she said looking at Prue.
Andy and Prue were rich, not just financially and they knew it. Even if they weren't well off, having friends like these would make them the richest people ever. They all shared a closeness that you don't see too often these days. They rushed to each other's side in a heartbeat. They looked after and took care of one another. She and Andy felt extremely lucky.

Days later, the gang was at Andy and Prue's house. They were standing out on the huge terrace overlooking the spectacular view. Andy was holding little Georgia and Prue was holding Zoë. They stood side by side while Victor and Emma (Andy's mom) took pictures of them. The gang soon joined in moments later. Victor smiled as Emma took a group picture. Victor wanted another picture of Prue, Andy, and the twins, so the gang stepped aside. Emma handed the camera to Victor. Andy and Prue stood side by side, each with a baby in their arms. The two of them gazed into each other's eyes and kissed. Victor took a picture as the gang looked on and smiled.

ALL DONE…….I HOPE YOU'VE ENJOYED THIS SERIES AS MUCH AS I HAVE
