Chapter 26: Surprises!

3 months later.

The sound of opening doors and shuffling feet woke Alec from his slumber. "What? Max?"

"Hey you're up" Max said sitting on the edge of the bed and kissing Alec on the forehead.

"Yeah" Alec yawned. "What's going on?"

"I've got that 6 months doctors appoinment" Max said, placing a hand on her now large stomach.

"Oh yeah" Alec replied, rubbing his eyes.

"I've gotta be there in half an hour" Max told him and continued to bustle around the room.

Alec nodded. "I've gotta sort some stuff out too" He got out of bed and begin to get ready.

"Really?" Max raised an eyebrow. "And what would that be?"

"Well my dear, that would be a surprise" Alec laughed.

Max smiled. "Well, i'll be out most of the day. I've got to go to the doctors and then me and OC are going shopping for the nursery. And you know OC so that will definetely take a couple of hours".

Alec laughed. "Ok. Then I guess I'll make tea"

Max laughed as she walked to the door. "Just don't burn the roast again"

Alec pouted playfully. "It was one time"


Max entered the doctors office and gave her name to the reception before taking a seat.

It only took 5 minutes before her name was called. Picking her bag off the floor, she made her way to Dr Michaels' office.

"Afternoon Dr Michaels" Max said as she entered before lying on the bed.

"Good afternoon Max" Dr Michaels replied walking over to the bed. "How are we feeling today?"

"We're feeling fine. Thank you" Max replied, smiling.

Dr Michaels smiled and began to press specific parts of Max's stomach. "Any pain?"

"No" Max replied, shakeing her head.

Dr Michaels then picked up the stethoscope and placed it on Max's stomach. "Heartbeat sounds good" he said before taking the scanning gel and rubbing it on Max's stomach and then using the scanner to form the image of the baby.

"Well Max, it looks like you're having twins" Dr Michaels said, smiling.

"Really?" Max said with a large smile on her face while looking at the sonogram.

"Really" Dr Michaels replied, printing out the sonogram.


"Cindy! Boo! You here!" Max yelled entering OC's appartment.

"Hey boo" OC said coming into the living room where Max was.

"You ready?" Max asked with a smile on her face.

"Of course!" OC yelled, happily.

"Oooo. But i have to tell you something first" Max said with a large smile on her face.

OC raised her eyebrow. "What?"

Max smiled brightly. "I'm having twins!"

OC broke into a smile and for a third time, began jumping around with Max. Suddenly, she stopped. "That means we have to buy double everything! Come on!" With that, OC literally dragged Max out of the door.


"Ooooooooooo! Look at this!" Max yelled as she stood in the cribs isle. She was looking at brown crib that little birds and clouds painted and it came with a matching mobile and blanket.

OC came over. "Ahhh! That's beautiful! Get a card!"

Max nodded before picking up an order card. "Are we done then?"

"Almost. We just need baby clothes" OC replied taking Max over to the clothes section.

"We'll get this one...oooo and this one...and this one...and these...oooooo and this one!" OC began yelling, chucking a load of clothes into their basket.

Max laughed. "You know, I have a budget".

OC turned to her. "Well, we're buying for two now"

"Yeah. Your right" Max said and paused, before also chucking clothes into the basket. "These! and these!"

"Don't forget these!"

"Oooooo and these!"


"Alec!" Max yelled as she entered their apartment, carrying what looked like 50 bags. "Alec!"

"In the nursery!" Came Alec's reply.

Max smiled and placed the bags down before heading to the nursery. She gasped in surprise when she opened the door.

The walls had been painted and now held a mural that showed a field with mountains and farm animals. The sky was a bright blue with fluffy white clouds that continued on the ceiling.

Max looked over at Alec who was wearing an overall covered in different colours of paint. "How?"

Alec smiled. "You like it?"

"It's absolutely beautiful" Max replied, tracing her hand over a part of the mural that was dry.

Alec smiled. "I'm glad. You think our baby'll like it"

Max smiled back. "They'll love it"

Alec's eyebrows raised. "They?"

Max smiled and nodded. "We're having twins"

Alec broke out into a smile. "Twins!? Twins!" He hugged Max lovingly, being careful of his children. "Twins! We're having twins!"

Max smiled. "We're having twins".

Alec grinned a thousand mega watt smile. "I can't believe this!" He kissed Max. "I'm gonna be a double daddy!"

Max grinned and they shared a passionate kiss. "You're gonna be an amazing double daddy"
