Lily Flower

*Two Months Later, Max's Pov*

I restlessly paced the living room, thinking hard. It has been two months. Two months! And nothing. I haven't brought it up to Lily because I didn't want to her stress about it but it was starting to look like I was going to have to tell her if I wanted some answers.

I sighed and ran a hand through my hair, making it fall into my eyes. I'd have to get someone to cut it later. I don't like hair hanging into my eyes anymore; it gets in the way while Lily and I were having sex.

"I'm home!" Lily sang out, smiling when she saw me already standing there waiting for her. I grinned, wrapping my arms around her and giving her a quick kiss. Lily had gotten a part time job working at the health clinic while she also went to school in Seattle.

"What do you want for dinner?" I asked, stepping back into the kitchen and pulling on my own apron that had paw prints on it.

"I'm in the mood for some homemade pizza and chocolate strawberries for dessert. Does that sound good to you?" she said, throwing her purse and coat onto the couch before plopping down also.

"Sounds perfect."

While I cooked I couldn't help but steal glances of her while she watched TV. Her black hair was pulled up into a ponytail and she was wearing her normal jeans and a button up shirt. I stared at her stomach the most though. It wasn't supposed to be that small.

"What are you staring at?" she asked, not even turning around to look at me. I blushed but didn't stop staring.

"You look nice today," I mumbled before going back to making the dough. She chuckled behind me but didn't say anything more on the matter.

We ate the pizza and I started to melt the chocolate for our dessert while Lily's eyes roamed me in my apron. I decided to go ahead and start the conversation while I had her attention.

"So, we've been married for two months," I started, glancing at my wife. She giggled but waited politely for me to continue. "And I've been wondering if you've been using…you know," I slipped off, my confidents running low all of a sudden.

"No, I don't know. You're going to have to use the words for this conversation," Lily exclaimed, her brow scrunched in confusion. I coughed awkwardly and continued to stir the chocolate before it started to stick.

"Ah, well, I thought that by now you would have, um, ah, never mind," I grumbled, blushing again.

"What are you talking about?" Lily asked, standing up. She reached up and grabbed my chin, lowering me until we were eye to eye. "Tell the truth," she demanded.

My nose flared in sudden frustration and pulled away from her. "Oh, screw this!" I growled, ripping my apron off and stomping down the hall and into the bathroom. I rummaged around in the medicine cabinet, looking for the traitorous pills. I knew she had them somewhere.

"What are you looking for!?" Lily said in alarm, watching me knock cold medicine out of my way and a few other things. I ignored her for a moment until I found the package of pills in the very back.

"Why do you have these?" I asked, holding them up for her to see. She looked at them in confusion for a moment.

"You were looking for my birth control? Why?" she asked, making to grab them. I held them out of her reach.

"I asked first," I stated stubbornly.

"I use them to regulate my periods. Answer my questions now," Lily said, crossing her arms.

"I have not used a condom once since we've been together. I was starting to wonder why you weren't pregnant yet," I explained dejectedly, still keeping those out of her reach just incase.

Lily's face went slack and her eyes widen in surprise. Her arms dropped to her sides and her mouth dropped open. "You've been trying to get me pregnant?!" she squeaked, putting a hand to her throat.

I wasn't sure if I should act guilty or not. I knew there was nothing wrong with my swimmers so I knew that Lily must be taking something. Today had just confirmed that I had been right.

"Yeah. Babies are next on the list after marriage, don't you think?" I said, shrugging. She glared at me and huffed.

"Why didn't you just talk to me about it?" she asked.

"Um, it didn't cross my mind until you just said it. I was going for more of a surprise baby actually," I exclaimed, shuffling guiltily now.

Lily stood there with a thoughtful look on her face as she watched me wiggle under her look. "I guess the house is getting a little quiet. I think a baby would liven things up around here," she said thoughtfully, putting a finger to her chin.

My stomach leapt excitedly. I tossed the birth control into the trash before swinging Lily up into my arms and going into our bedroom.

*Eight Months Later*

I yawned before turning off the alarm. My bones cracked as I sat up and got out of bed, making sure I didn't jolt Lily around. I used the bathroom, showered, shaved, and fixed breakfast before going back into the bedroom to wake Lily.

Lily was lying on her side but her stomach made her uncomfortable, making her roll over onto my side of the bed, kicking off the covers as she did.

Only after a few weeks of loving making Lily ended up pregnant, much to both of our excitement. At her second ultrasound it showed us that we were actually going to have twins, sexes unknown though. Lily's pregnancy had been rough though, morning sickness not staying in the morning, cravings so weird that I normally couldn't eat at the same time as she did, and her moods left me three steps behind at all times.

"Honey, it's time to get up," I whispered in her ear, knowing she didn't like loud awakenings anymore. She grumbled and peeled her eyes open to glare at me before rolling over to the other side of the bed. "No, you've got to get up," I pestered, sitting down on the bed, reaching over to rub her back.

Lily wiggled towards my warmth. "I don't want to go to birthing class. Can't we skip," she whined, glancing over at me.

"But you might miss something important. No skipping," I said, smiling at her. She glared and struggled to sit up by herself. Lily could barely do anything without help anymore so she had to take online classes now and was on leave from the clinic. She complained all the time about being so big that she couldn't see her feet anymore and she still had a month left.

I reached over and helped her up and then walked her to the bathroom, making sure she didn't trip. I wasn't taking any chances with her being this far into her pregnancy and she totally agreed with me. Lily encouraged my hovering and if I wasn't around then Dodge, dad or Embry did the hovering for me.

I sat on the toilet as she showered, making sure she didn't slip while I hoped our breakfast would stay warm. The morning was a pretty normal one as we got ready. Birthing class was interesting and slightly disgusting as usually and afterwards I dropped Lily off at her parents' house so I could go on patrol.

"I'll pick you up at six, babe," I mumbled, giving Lily a quick kiss before running off into the woods.

*Lily's Pov*

I waddled into the kitchen, looking for a snack that would stifle my cravings. I sighed, putting a hand on my aching back. While I was searching I felt a few gently kicks from my tummy.

"Hey, no fighting in there," I grumbled, patting my giant belly fondly. Another kick went against my hand. "Tsk, already not listening to mommy," I laughed, grabbing a bag of chips and heading into the living room.

"Talking to yourself is one of the first signs of insanity," Dodge said from the couch, grinning at me. I rolled my eyes.

"Bunch up there, sport," I said, swatting his legs. He laughed, putting his legs on the floor. We settled in, watching TV for a few hours before while our parents went to the store.

I got up again to get myself another snack and Dodge again. I wasn't really paying attention to my footing, thinking about the cute booties that we had gotten for the babies a few days ago. My left foot suddenly twisted in on itself and my weight shifted, my body hitting the ground.

"Oof!" my hands instantly went to my stomach, panic clouding my brain. Water pooled at the ground where I was sitting. "Dodge!" I screamed.

My brother came barging in and rushed over to me. "What is that? Did your water break? Is that blood? Oh God, that's blood. That's blood, blo-"Dodge's eyes rolled back in his head and he hit the ground harder than I had. I groaned, struggling to pick myself off of the ground and straggled to the phone, my ankle throbbing.

I dialed the Uley house quickly and took a seat on the table.

"Hello?"

"Emily! My water broke and I'm bleeding and Dodge fainted on me! Please, send someone to take me to the hospital!" I cried out, panic overcoming me again. I needed to see if my babies were safe.

"Be there in a few," she said and hung up. I took deep breaths and placed a hand on my stomach, rubbing it in circles.

It was only a minute later that someone pulled up in the driveway and two doors slammed. Sam and Seth ran in, took a second to look at me before acting. They both helped me to my feet but I couldn't walk so Sam picked me up carefully.

"Bring him too," my father-in-law grunted, nudging Dodge with his boot. Seth easily slung his pack brother over his back and followed us out. Dodge got put in the front seat while Seth and I sat in the back. I kept taking deep breaths and yelped when my first contraction hit me. I was gripping Seth's hand tightly in mine when we pulled up to the hospital in Forks, tears stinging my eyes.

They both helped me into the hospital and got me checked in, leaving Dodge out in the car. Doctors and nurses fluttered around me, asking questions and hooking me up to some meds.

"Max, where is he?" I asked Sam groggily. He shushed me and patted my hand before telling Seth to find my husband. Emily and my parents showed up at the same time but Max had yet to come. I repeatedly kept asking for him, not remembering who I had asked already.

"Mrs. Uley?" Emily and I both looked over at the doctor. She walked over to me. "We'll be doing a C-Section soon. Only one person can be in here for it. Everyone else has to wait in the hall," she said. I nodded.

"My husband," I mumbled to her. She nodded and looked over at a few of the other pack members questionably. They shook their heads no; none of them were the husband. "Nope, you'll know when you see him, doctor. He's a totally hottie and he's got great buns," I slurred out.

Michael snorted, stuffing his fist into his mouth. The doctor gave me a half smile and patted my hand. "We'll wait a few more minutes before we start then," she exclaimed before leaving the room.

I heard some yelling down the hall before Seth and Max appeared in the doorway, both out of breath. I smiled and held out my hand for Max to take. He took it and kissed my palm.

"I'm sorry I wasn't here sooner. I was near Seattle when Seth gave me the news," he explained, kissing my hand again. I patted his head clumsily before grinning at him.

"Alright, everyone out except for the daddy!" the doctor said, coming back into the room with two nurses. My family smiled at me and left the room to wait in the hall.

"See doc, didn't I tell you he was a hottie," I mumbled, grinning at the lady. She laughed and agreed with me while Max listened with a confused look. I giggled until I felt someone poke me with something sharp.

"Ouch!" the nurse apologized and patted my hand.

"You ready?" the doctor asked, putting on her mask. I nodded and squeezed Max's hand tightly.

Max and I both held a baby proudly while our family stood around us cooing at them. Dodge had finally come around and was slouched against the wall with an icepack to his head that was quickly melting. He had the goofiest grin on his face though as he stared at his nieces, Hannah and Haley.

"So, when do you want to try for a third baby?" Max asked, leaning closer so I could hear him over our family. I laughed tiredly and pushed his face away before he could steal a kiss from me.

"Ask again in a few months, Hot Cakes," I snickered before resting back against my pillow.

The End…
