Chapter 24

The elevator is tight with Marco and Brady standing on each side of me with my belly protruding out for everyone to see. The snow leaves my brown knee high boots wet on the bottom. The black leggings underneath meet to my belly under the navy and white stripped shirt with the black peacoat over laying it. The red scarf is simple but adorable with the sweet outfit. My hair flows down my back curled with a black stocking cap on top to keep me warm. I touch my belly as the twins dance inside me. it makes me smile every time they move.

It's the end of November, leaving me 20 weeks pregnant. While Nightwing is still away, Marco received a simple message a week ago telling me that he is okay and he loves me. I'm lonely as its been 7 weeks since I've talked to my sweet husband. After the doctors appointment, every media station was outside trying to confirm my pregnancy. With my growing belly I released some of our wedding photos, which tied them over for about a week. They assume I am, but I refuse to announce without my husband beside me.

The elevator doors open onto the large baby boutique, in which is empty. Cyborg made the arrangements to have an empty store to shop for all of the baby stuff. Although I have a baby shower being planned, I want to get the furniture. I am greeted by a tall woman who is heaviry set with blonde hair. She smiles with her beautiful lipstick. It's a deep red, brownish. "What kind of lipstick is that?" I ask admiring. "I love it."

"Oh, it's a younique product that I sell on the side." She smiles in shock.

"I'd like to place an order." I smile, "Before I leave please get me one of your catalogues."

"Yes mam'" she smiles, "So what can we do for you?"

"as rumor has it I'm pregnant." I smile, "Rumor is true. However I'd appreciate it to be kept under wraps."

"Here at Miracles, we have a confidentiality promise." She smiles.

"Great" I smile

"Do you know the gender?" she asks.

"No, and its genders. Twins." I smile

"Oh wow, a big bundle of joy!" she smiles, "we have a lot of gender neutral items."

"Great. I'll let you know if I need anything." I smile walking to the big area full of cribs.

There are so many styles with different stains and colors. I like the white look, but the cream colored is beautiful. I find a sleek white sleigh crib with a rounded back piece. Its beautiful. I point at Marco then to the crib so he can mark it down on the clipboard. He walks over writing the serial number down and the description. I wander through until I find a matching changing table doing the same. "I only need one of these, the twins will be sharing a room until they are older." Marco nods writing the information down.

I find the sweet cream colored rocker that is a larger size meant for mothers with multiple babies. Its sweet and will work perfectly for feeding my beautiful children. "I want 2 of these, one for upstairs and one for downstairs." I smile.

I veture into the bedding session finding a sweet sets of bedding. I look at the beautiful pinks and blues, wishing I knew what they were. I walk back to the rocker taking a seat. I sigh resting my head already exhausted. "Mam' are you okay?" the woman asks me.

"Yes." I smile, "Just resting."

"Okay." She smiles walking away.

My eyes close and I listen to the department store music playing lullabies for the children and babies who come shopping with their mothers. I touch my belly feeling my babies kicking. I fall asleep in the chair listening to the music/ the chair is comfortable with my feet propped up, holding my belly. I wake up groggily to see myself still in the store with the lights on. Marco and Brady are no where in sight. Before I can stand up he's standing in front of me with a vase full of roses.

"Nightwing.." I cry.
