Sarah put Sawyer to bed after giving her a bath and walked into the room she shared with Matt. She couldn't believe that he actually felt the way he did. That Jana was the babies' birth mother. And suddenly, she wished that she'd never agreed to this. That she'd never let Jana talk her into carrying the babies. Because it gave Matt an even stronger bond with her. A bond that Sarah was beginning to wonder about. Maybe Jana was who Matt wanted all along and Sarah was just a stand in for her.

She sighed and got ready for bed. She picked up her book on the nightstand and started to read some. But her mind was filled with thoughts and feelings. And she couldn't turn them off.

Jana laid in the bed with Randy that night thinking about what happened. "Randy, we have to figure out how to fix this."

"I thought you said that Matt had to fix this." He said to her.

"I know but we need to do something. Matt and Sarah are going to have two more babies soon. They need to be together."

"What if they can't work this out?"

"Then I guess they will have a custody arrangement considering Sawyer and the twins. But I hope they can work this out. I don't want to give these babies to a divorced couple."

"What does that mean?" He asked looking at his wife.

"It just means that I want the babies to have two parents together."

"Are you saying you won't give these babies to Matt and Sarah unless they're married? Are you saying you would keep the babies? Even though they are biologically Matt and Sarah's"

"I can't keep these babies. They don't belong to me. They belong to Matt and Sarah."

"But you just said you didn't want to give these babies to a divorced couple? Do you want to keep them so you and Matt can raise them together?"

"What?" She asked shocked he would even say that. "I can't keep them. They don't belong to me. But I would like them to have two parents."

"Well, they belong to Matt. You and he can be together and raise them." He said getting up. "Because it seems that you and Matt are the most important people in this and Sarah and I are just afterthoughts."

"I've never tried to make either one of you feel like an afterthought. I've tried to include you in everything to do with this pregnancy. I even agreed that we could try for another baby of our own right after these two were born. And I'm constantly made to feel guilty or like I've done something wrong. I have never given you a reason to mistrust me! So why the fuck would I start now?" Just as she got the last word out, she doubled over in pain.

He rushed to her side. "Are you okay?"

"No, I think something's wrong." She said through the pain.

"Okay, let's go to the hospital." He called the neighbor who came over to watch Jake and Randy took her to the hospital. He called Sarah and Matt on the way and told them he was taking Jana there. He hoped everything was okay.

Sarah got the message and quickly arranged for a sitter for Sawyer. She had to know the babies were okay. She rushed to the hospital hoping everything was okay. Matt got the message too and headed to the hospital. He hoped everyone was fine.

Randy and Jana arrived at the ER and Jana was taken back. Randy paced in the waiting room feeling a little guilty about the fight they'd had. He looked up as Sarah came rushing in.

"How is she and the babies?" She asked.

"They haven't told me anything yet." He said to her. "She has to be okay."

"I'm sure she will. You just have to have faith." Sarah replied to him.

"She's got to be. We had a fight right before she doubled over. She's got to be okay so I can tell her I'm sorry and that I love her."

"She knows you love her." Sarah replied placing a hand on his shoulder. "What did you fight about?"

"The pregnancy and everything."

Sarah sighed. "This isn't exactly working out like we all hoped is it? I mean we all assumed this would be easy for us because we're such good friends. But we didn't really know how tough with would be." Sarah said. "I didn't expect to feel so left out or to question my husband's feelings. This just isn't like we thought."

"I blame Matt and his insanity for all of this. Before she doubled over, I told her that if she really wanted, she and Matt could raise these babies together since we seemed to be after thoughts. She yelled at me and told me she'd never given me a reason to doubt her. And she hasn't. Why did I have to be so stupid?"

"Because you were hurt and angry. She knows you didn't mean it. She will be fine. You have to believe that." Sarah sighed. "I wish now we haven't done this. I mean I wanted more children so bad but I should have just picked a surrogate and not let Jana carry the babies. I didn't think what it would do to your marriage. We all should have thought more about this."

"How's the babies and Jana?" Matt asked when he walked up.

"We haven't heard anything yet." Sarah replied. "But I'm sure things are fine."

They all looked up as the doctor came out. "Jana Orton?"

"Yes." Randy said standing up. "I'm her husband and these are the babies' parents. How are Jana and the babies?"

"We're going to have to do an emergency c section. Her water broke and we just feel it's safer to get the boys out. She can have one person in the room with her. She asked for Sarah."

"That's me." Sarah said to him. She would love to be in there when the babies were born but she knew who Jana really wanted. "I think Randy should be in there with her. She needs her husband."

"Are you sure Sarah? I mean I know how much you want to be there for the babies."

"I'm sure" She smiled. "Go be with Jana and take care of her and my babies."

He hugged her and followed the doctor back. Once he had, Sarah sat down in the waiting by Matt. "Why didn't you want to be in there? They are our babies." Matt asked.

"So, they are our babies? You actually think that now."

"Sarah, they are our children."

"Yes they are but Randy is Jana's husband and he is the best person to be in there with her. The babies are early and I'm sure she's scared. She needs him. That's why I wanted him in there." He nodded in agreement.

Randy arrived at the room and headed in. "Hey baby."

"What are you doing in here?"

"Sarah thought you might need me. This is scary."

"Yes it is." She replied taking his hand.

"Jana, I'm sorry about what I said. This just isn't an easy situation." He said sitting down by her.

"No it isn't but according to the doctors it's almost over."

"Are you and the babies okay?"

"I'm fine but the doctor is worried about one of the babies. So, he wants to the c-section."

"I'll be with you every step of the way." She smiled as she held his hand.

"Alright, Jana, let's get you to the OR and get those babies out." The doctor said walking in. He motioned to the nurses to help take her to the OR. "Mr. Orton, let's get you changed and in the OR with her." Randy nodded and followed them out.

They were soon in the OR and the doctor was delivering the babies. "Twin A is here." The doctor said handing the baby to the nurse. "Take him to the NICU. Okay, Jana, one baby down. Let's get Twin B out." He pulled the other baby out. "Code Blue!" He yelled. "Baby's not breathing."
