Regina woke up in Emma's arms she had an ache in her back and she knew exactly why. She was pregnant the question only remained now was with who(m)
She maneuvered to get up but was unsuccessful with untangling from Emma.
"Sarah is thankfully still asleep" Emma mumbled and opened her eyes. She moved her hand and rubbed Regina's stomach "Good morning little dumplings" She then kissed her wife's lips "Good morning my gorgeous wife"
"I'll never tire of hearing that, Good Morning, though why do you look like you just came out of the lower levels of hell?"
Emma frowned "I look that bad huh? Guess I'll be doing extra makeup today on top of extra coffee"
"It's no fair you get to have coffee" Regina frowned herself.
"Turn that frown upside down Gina babe. Today we get to find out what our two new family members just might be."
"You still didn't answer my question" Regina said successfully getting out of bed and walked towards the bathroom.
"Sarah's nightmares she kept me up all night"
As Regina returned to the bedroom from the restroom.
"Why did you not wake me?" Regina just assumed since Emma said what she said. She hoped if she was wrong she could blame pregnancy brain.
Emma yawned she was now sitting up against the headboard with her knees up to her chest with her arms around her legs.
"You were up once, but the rest of the times you just were too peaceful and I wanted at least the one of us growing two of us to get some rest. Is that a crime Gina?"
Emma really didn't want to get into some petty argument fueled by hormones and she probably shouldn't have added that last part but she wasn't in her right mind. She hoped that it would just bypass after it slipped out of her mouth and things would run smoothly.
"I am her mother!" Regina said loudly but not quite yelling as she didn't want to wake Sarah up.
Awwww fuck here we go. Emma said "Of course you're her mother, no one is saying your not"
"I'm pregnant not an incapable mother" Regina said rather upset and she was starting to have tears in her eyes. Why was she fighting with Emma? She couldn't figure out why nor to stop either. This was kind of reminding her of their earlier days before they loved eachother.
"Babe I'm not saying you are" Emma said.
"No you're just proving it with your actions" Regina said angrily as she sniffled.
Emma got up and tried to wrap her arms around Regina but Regina was not having any of it.
"Do not touch me right now" Regina said walking out of the room and towards down the stairs.
"Well so much for a smooth morning" Emma wiped her hand over her face. "Lower levels of hell round 2" She took off her tank top and underwear and tossed them into the hamper before getting into the shower.
Regina started cooking breakfast but didn't start the coffee pot. "Psh she can make her own damn coffee it's her fault she was up all night"
Emma came downstairs ten minutes later she smelt breakfast and went to grab some coffee but there was none so she went ahead and made a pot. She waited till was enough for her to pour a mug and prepared it how she liked.
"Mmm gosh that's good" Emma said aloud after taking a few sips of coffee.
Regina set a plate of eggs and toast in front of Emma, no bacon. So Emma tried to grab herself some.
"No bacon for you" Regina slapped Emma's hand.
"Seriously? Are we really doing this right now? Your acting like I committed a felony"
They didn't notice Sarah had come downstairs. She could tell something was wrong.
"Did Mama really do something as bad as a Felony? Sarah looked at her two mothers back and forth.
Emma knew she didn't. Question was would Regina realize it or is she supposed to apologize her way out of this even though she technically wasn't in the wrong. She sat down in front of hey plate and started eating.
Regina put a plate of food with bacon in front of Sarah she thought about what both Emma and Sarah said. Did Sarah know what a felony was? If she did that made her kind of proud for such young age to understand something like that.
"Why are you mad at Mama Mommy?" Sarah asked locking her green eyes with her brunette mother's brown ones.
Gosh Regina loved those green eyes that reminded hey so much of Emma. Why was she really upset with her. It's not like she was actually there to be woken up. Maybe it was the hormones, but she didn't want to admit that.
"Mama did something not nice" Regina said being stubborn and made herself a plate with extra bacon. These really must be Emma's kids because she was craving them like no other.
"Not nice? Are you kidding me? I was nice, and that's a problem and I'm not sure why" she wasn't going to say it's was about sleep as she didn't want Sarah to think it was her fault. Emma poured herself a second cup of coffee.
"We will discuss this later" Regina said then started to eat her breakfast.
The rest of breakfast was silent and Emma just left her plate. If she was going to see the light of day she obviously would let Regina do things instead of doing them to help her pregnant wife. Though she wasn't sure that was the right choice.
Regina did take all the dishes happily and did them by hand. By the time she was done Emma and Sarah were laughing watching cartoons cuddled on the couch. She smiled as she rubbed her stomach. They really did have the same eyes and she loved it. Regina headed upstairs and showered and changed. She came downstairs and Emma was asleep with Sarah in her arms. It appears no cups of coffee could keep her awake. Sarah kissed her Mama and carefully got out of Emma's arms and turned off the TV. She put a blanket on Emma before walking over to her Mommy. Regina picked her up and hugged her.
"Your so sweet my sweet knight" Whispering and kissing Sarah's cheek.
"Mama didn't get lots of sleep I had nightmares"
Sarah said resting her head on Regina's shoulder.
Regina rubbed Sarah's back. "Want to tell me about your nightmares baby?"
Sarah shook her head.
"I'm not a baby anymore the little dumplings are"
"You're very right you're a big girl now" Regina hugged her daughter before setting her down.
Sarah kissed Regina's stomach in two spots "Good morning little dumplings"
Regina grabbed Sarah's hand and placed it where one of the babies were kicking. "They're saying good morning back"
Sarah smiled bigged. "I felt them! I love you Mommy. Will you play with me upstairs?"
"Of course my Sweet Knight" Regina said.
Regina and Sarah went upstairs to Sarah's room and played for a half hour before Emma came upstairs.
"Sarah get ready to go to Aunt Mulan and Aunt Ruby's" Emma said.
"Okay Mama" Sarah said.
Emma then said "Babe you too our appointment is in an hour"
Regina said "Alright be down in a few moments"
Emma left the room and put on her makeup so she didn't look like death had become her.
Once they were in the car out of habit Emma grabbed Regina's hand.
Regina intertwined their fingers together. She was done fighting with Emma.
Once Sarah was dropped off they headed to the hospital.
Emma let go of Regina's hand and parked the car. She got out and walked around and opened the door for her wife. Once her wife was out she closed the door and looked into her eyes.
"Are we okay now?" Emma asked.
Regina responded by hugging Emma "Yes we're okay now" it wasn't an apology but the moment had passed. Regina let go and grabbed Emma's hand they walked together inside the hospital checked in and sat down until they were called back and brought to a room.
Regina got up on the exam table.
"This is it babe, no more wondering what our little dumplings are" Emma said kissing Regina's stomach before standing back up.
Regina squeezed Emma's hand and rubbed her stomach with her other one. "Just a few more minutes" Regina said with a smile.
Another two minutes passed before Dr Lancaster came into the room.
"Well if it isn't my favorite couple" she said with a smile. "Are we ready to find out about these two babies"
In unison Emma and Regina said "Yes"
Dr Lancaster lifted up Regina's shirt "sorry for the coldness" she squirted the gel and moved the wand around. "Everything is looking good" she turned on the sound and moved the wand again "heartbeats are good." She then pointed to the screen "Here we have baby number 1 who is a girl" Doctor Lancaster typed on her Keyboard after taking a couple of photos.
"We have another girl Emma" Regina said with tears in her eyes.
Doctor Lancaster took the wand again and found the next baby "and here we have baby number 2 who is a boy if you notice the difference right here she pointed to the screen" She took a couple photos, wiped the gel off, and pulled Regina's shirt down.
"We have both babe" Emma grinned resting her hand on Regina's stomach as she kissed her. "Thank you doctor Lancaster"
Doctor Lancaster typed on her computer and printed out the photos and handed them to Regina.
"Both your boy and girl look Healthy." She said with a smile. "Do you have any questions?"
Regina shook her head.
"Well till next time Mrs. Mrs. Swan-Mills" with that Dr Lancaster had left the room.
Emma wiped the tears from Regina's face. "No more mystery we have a boy and a girl little dumplings"
"You're still going to call them that aren't you?"
Regina asked.
"You know it babe" Emma said with a grin.
Regina got down from the exam table they left the hospital. She was to say something when her alarm went off. She had a huge smile on her face and was in the arms of her hopefully future wife when she woke up.
