Chapter 29
One year later
Renton and Eureka were asleep in their bed, only to be awoken suddenly.
"Morning Mama, Papa!" Linck yelled as he woke the two of them up suddenly.
"Linck, what did we say about you waking us up so suddenly, now that Eureka is pregnant, we have to be more careful of what happens around her," Renton said to his youngest son.
"Sorry, Papa, I keep forgetting…" Linck responded.
"It's alright" Renton said smiling as he saw Eureka slowly rise.
"Good morning, Renton, Linck," Eureka said
"Morning, Mama!" Linck said as he leaned forward and hugged, his mom.
"How did you sleep?" Renton asked.
"I slept fine, I felt a few kicks overnight though," Eureka said while smiling and rubbing her stomach.
"I guess they are coming along well," Renton said as he put his hand on hers.
"They?" Linck asked.
"Yes, well, the thing is we don't know if it is a boy or a girl yet, but we are going to see Mischa today to get the full scan," Eureka said to Linck.
"Well, whatever the results may be, I'll be glad to have this child with you," Renton said as he put his hand on Eureka's shoulder.
"Yeah, and I'll no longer be the youngest anymore," Linck said happily.
"You bet Linck, now, go on downstairs and see what your siblings are up to, we will be downstairs soon enough, and then we will go see Mischa in her office later, ok?" Renton asked Linck.
"Ok, Papa, see you later" Linck said as he ran out of Renton and Eureka's room.
"He is always just a bundle of energy isn't he?" Renton said as he laid back down.
"Yes, but what is really on my mind is what is going to happen when our baby is born, its going to be two against one for the both of us," Eureka laughed as she turned towards Renton after she laid back down beside him.
"I wouldn't worry too much though, we have the kids to help us and Maurice will make a great older brother," Renton said proudly.
"That's true, he has grown a lot, and so have Maeter and Linck, they have made us very proud, and I wouldn't trade them for the world," Eureka replied.
"Me either, now, time to get ready, it's already 8 and Mischa expects us at 9:30," Renton said as he got up out of bed and started to get changed.
An hour and a half later at Mischa's office.
"Well, there are no irregularities that I can see now, so all I have for you is good news, you will have perfectly healthy twins," Mischa said while reading her clipboard.
"Wait, twins?" Renton asked surprised.
"Yes, the scans indicate that Eureka is carrying two babies, one of them is a perfectly normal human, however the other holds a large quantity of coralian characteristics," Mischa said in a curious tone.
"Oh my gosh…" Eureka said softly.
"It's okay Eureka, we'll be fine, I guess we will be a little more outnumbered now, won't we" Renton said laughing.
"I know, but I didn't think we would be having two children…" Eureka said feeling overwhelmed.
"Hey, remember, no matter what happens, I'm with you no matter what," Renton said kissing her on the forehead.
This reassured Eureka and she calmed down significantly.
"Don't worry Eureka, I've seen it personally that with Renton, you will be fine, now, run along and go tell your kids the news, they will be very happy," Mischa said waving them towards the door.
"Thanks Mischa, we will be back in a few weeks for another check-up," Renton said as he was leaving.
During the drive home
"Twins, wow, we really will be outnumbered," Renton said while driving.
"It'll be tough, but we'll get through it, we always have an always will," Eureka said, putting her hand on Renton's.
Soon enough, Renton and Eureka were back at home and were being barraged with questions from the three kids, and the answers given back were truthful and promising to the future.
It had been a rough time for the new Thurston family, but in the end they were able to pull through and survive, and in the aftermath, they will always be victorious.
