~Emma's POV~
Regina smiles up at the house. "This is definitely big enough."
"It is..."I agree cautiously. It is in my best interest not to piss of my pregnant fiancé. She looks over at me with a raised eyebrow.
"So...do you guys want it or?" Katheryn questions.
"How much?" I ask. Regina rolls her eyes and scoffs. Katheryn proceeds to hand over the paper work but Regina stops her.
"We're taking it, it doesn't matter." Regina demands.
"Babe!" I gasp.
"No Emma. Look it has like what 9 bedrooms? And three full bathrooms which we definitely need. And a big ass backyard for the kids and Lola. I'm not going to let you pass this up." Regina snaps at me. Katheryn hands over the paper work towards me. I sigh in relief at the price. It's very affordable. I sign it and hand it over to Regina and she signs it as well.
"Don't worry. The house will be ready before the babies are born." Kat reassures us.
"Thank you Katheryn, for being so patient with us. Well, with Emma." Regina glares at me.
"It's no problem at all. I'll see you guys later. I have a date." She winks. Regina and I bid our farewell before we tour the house again on our own.
"Babe?" Regina questions softly and taps her belly.
"Yea?" I answer while looking out of the window that gives a view of the huge backyard.
"Why are you always so scared all of the time? Financial wise." She asks. I knew it was coming.
"Umm. My mom always had problems and we were in and out of shelters and believe me, they aren't a great place to be in. I just don't want the things that happened then to happen to us." I vent. Regina nods in understanding and pecks my cheek.
"It won't happen Papi. I won't let it okay?" She reassures me. I see nothing but honesty in those beautiful brown eyes and it causes me to smile.
"I know. I'm sorry for always freaking out." I mumble when I lean my forehead against hers. She takes my hands and place them on the sides of her belly. My heart flutters when I feel movement. You can even see it through her shirt.
"I think they are all awake." She laughs.
"Doesn't that hurt or feel weird?" I gasp. It kind of looks like they are trying to bust through her skin.
"It tingles a bit." She chuckles. "But I'm fine. No...actually, I'm really hungry."
"That's probably why they are throwing a fit." I laugh and lock her arm in mine for support.
Regina isn't really supposed to walk alot. She's on house arrest, but she can not stay still whatsoever. The doctors said that bed rest would make the pregnancy easier on her, but she's often bored out of her mind.
We decided to stop by her granny's new restaurant. When we get there, Zelena is already there with Robin. Her multi colored eyes beams with joy when she sees us.
"Robin!" Zelena scolds when she runs towards us. I lift the toddler in my arms and ruffle her puffy blonde hair.
"Auntie Emma." She smiles.
"Yes my love." I smirk at her.
"When Ti Ti Gina have baby?" She asks. Zelena gives Regina a big hug when she makes it over to us.
"Well...she has four more months to go." I tell the little one.
"That not long?" She asks.
"It'll be here before you know it." I reassure her. Honestly I'm in no rush. I am not looking forward to the restless nights and the stinky diapers. Josie and Ivy are hardly out of pull-ups. Zelena shows us where she and Robin were sitting and invites us to join them.
"Regina! Emma! It's great to see you." Granny smiles.
"Hola Abuela." Regina gives the older woman a huge hug.
"I'm sorry that I couldn't make the baby shower."granny sighs.
"It's alright. The food made up for it." I reassure her.
"And you did not want to be there granny." Zelena mumbles.
"Why?" The older woman frowns.
"Ruby invited Robin and Marian." Regina gives a fake smirk.
"That girl! She is out of control." Granny groans in spanish. "What are the names of the babies?"
"I would love to know as well." zelena agrees. I look at Regina. This is her family; she should be the one to tell them.
"Braydon, Brooke, and Brandon." Regina reveals. Zelena's smile spreads wide across her face.
"That is so adorable!" She squeals.
"I like it to mija." Granny smiles and pushes her glasses up her nose. "What do you want to eat?"
"I think I want lasagna..."Regina trails in thought as she scans the menu.
"And I'm guessing that you want a grilled cheese?" Granny questions towards me. I nod my head with a shit eating grin.
~Regina's POV~
I lay on my side on the couch and watch as Emma helps the twins with their homework. Lola lays curled up below me and Josie lays on her furry belly. I think she feels safe in secure when Lola is around. She was really attached to the babies when they were born and it makes me so happy to see their bond grow stronger.
"Mmm mm." Emma shakes her head. "You have two left over so you have to carry it and add it to the next column remember?"
"Ohhhh." Henry smacks his head.
"Duhhh..." Ivy sasses. She stops her coloring to stick her tongue out at Henry. That girl... It makes me wonder if our sons will back fire on us and come out as mini me's like Ivy and Hannah. Emma hopes that they are like Henry but I think we jinxed it big time. The constant movement in my tummy doesn't prove it any less wrong.
"Ughhh! This is stupid!" Hannah growls.
"What's wrong?" Emma asks calmly.
"I can't do it!" She groans.
"But you did it right Hannah..." Emma trails in confusion.
"Oh. Can we please do something else?" She whines.
"Finish it Hannah. I'm not playing with you." I scold at her. She pouts and sits her head in her hand. I groan as I sit up. Emma looks at me with full concern.
"You okay?"
"Yea. I just need a snack." I tell her and stand up. I take a few steps and feel a pain shoot through my body. It knocks the wind out of me and I clench on to the arm of the couch. Lola stands up and whimpers.
"Babe?" Emma quickly stands up and comes to the rescue. I look to Emma with worry eyes. I'm only 5 months pregnant. I'm frozen in place and too scared to move. My gut is telling me that something bad is happening.
"Momma? Are you okay?" Henry whimpers.
"Yes honey...I'm fine." I grunt. Even talking hurts.
"Everybody upstairs." Emma orders. The kids do as they're told. Henry and Hannah help their sister up the stairs and into their rooms. "You aren't having a miscarriage are you?" She asks.
"No...I'm fine. They have to come out Emma." I tell her.
"What why?" She whimpers in fear.
"I'm not big enough to hold them anymore...I think one of them is puncturing my spinal cord. I can't even move.." I sigh through the immense pain. A strong sting is shooting through my back and spreading throughout my body making it hard for me to breathe.
"Soo...they...Regina I really don't want them to cut you open."
"Babe. It'll be okay, just call an ambulance and Zelena alright?" I pant. She nods her head and does what I tell her to do.
