Arrival
Chase paced silently biting his thumb nail nervously, unable to calm his nerves and anxiety in the waiting room. It was already pass midnight and still no news of how Molly was doing.
This was most unexpected indeed.
That morning…
Molly was watering the crops when suddenly she fell to her knees. Using one hand to support her weight while the other clutched her stomach as if for dear life. Tears began to overflow from her eyes even though she had shut them tight and she gritted her teeth in hopes to suppress the intense pain she was undergoing. The only audible words Chase could make out from her was 'it hurts'. Before he knew what was going on, he found himself kicking at the Choral Clinic's front door carrying Molly bridal style.
"Molly isn't due just yet…not for another month and a half. This is most unexpected…" Jin was looking through his cabinets for some kind of contraption. He quickly made his way to the doorway that lead upstairs. "Irene, please prepare a bed for Molly. I fear there is no other chose."
Chase fallowed Jin outside and took his arm firmly giving Jin both a look of concern and confusion. "What's going on"
Jin simply nodded and adjusted his glasses. "We must perform a c-section. Molly is having contractions for some reason. I'm not sure of the cause but this could mean that there might be some kind of complication and not only could it be a threat to the baby…but Molly as well."
Chase stared blankly at the doctor. His hand loosen it's grip on Jin's arm and limply fell to his side. His body went numb and there was a burning sensation on his eyes and a lump had form on his chest.
Sensing the young chefs distress, Jin placed his hand on Chase's shoulder. "I'll do my best for the both of them."
At that moment Irene passed by both men and was pushing Molly's bed, leading her to a separate room. Chase looked at Molly's almost lifeless body pass by him. He quickly took her hand and kissed her forehead.
Molly opened her eyes ever so slightly with tears rolling down her now pale face. "Ch-chase? I-I'm scared….and…it hurts…"
Chase bit his lip and gave her a slight smile. "I-it's ok honey bunny…your going to be ok…and so is our baby. Your going to be fine, Ok?"
Molly closed her eyes, nodded and squeezed Chase's hand.
"I'm going to ask you to please wait in the waiting room young man."
Chase turned around and glared at the un-expressional elder woman. "No. I'm staying by her side…no matter what."
Jin quickly pulled Chase away from Molly's side. Chase was caught off guard and he was letting go of Molly's hand, their fingertips where the only thing holding them together until slowly they slipped from each other.
Jin took Chase's shoulders and moved him to the side so that Irene would continue her wait to the other room. "Chase! If we waste any more time, there can be more complications!" Jin let out a sigh and loosen his grip on Chase's shoulders. "Believe me, they will be fine. Please have faith and trust in my abilities as a doctor."
Chase simply nodded and Jin immediately left him and closed the door behind him.

Chase sat silently resting his elbows on his knees as he rubbed his face with both hands. He stood up irritably and paced around the room and then suddenly stopped. He ran his fingers through his peach like hair and turned to look at the door where Jin had disappeared to. At this point he didn't care if Jin got upset with him, he had waited long enough and he would wait no more. With determination, he clenched his fist and started walking towards the door when suddenly it swung open.
Jin looked sternly at Chase but then smiled.
"Everything went well. You can come in and see them. I'm sure you'll be happy with the results."
Chase nodded and sprinted towards Molly's room. Before entering her room he took a deep breath, slowly opened the door and made his way inside the room. He could hear small muffles and a baby whimpering behind a curtain. He could feel his heart beat increase and his hands began to feel sweaty. With one trembling hands he pulled the curtain to the side and his eyes widen at the sight of Molly not only cradling one baby…but two!
Molly's face light up and smiled. "Oh! Look who came to see us. Say hi to daddy Emily, you too Elli."
Chase took one of the twins in his arms, caressed it's face tenderly and smiled. "So is this Emily?"
Molly giggled and shook her head. "No, this is Emily. That's Elliot."
Chase gave Molly a confused look. "Elliot? Isn't that a boy's name? Who's Elli then?"
Molly pouted. "He may have inherited his father's feminine features but he's still a boy you know. And Elli's just his nick name."
Chase blinked and stared blankly. "That's not a very nice thing to say…especially in front of the children." he then leaned forward and lightly pressed his forehead against Molly's. "That aside…I'm just glad you ok. I was really worried. I don't know what I would have done if something where to happen to you."
Molly blushed and smiled. "I'm sorry I worried you."
Chase kissed her forehead and sat next to her. " I wonder what our children will be like…"
Molly looked up and placed a finger on her chin as if in deep thought. "Well…I'd like for them to be energetic…but also have a gentle side to them."
Chase let out a chuckle. "Well if they are energetic or gentle, either will be fine. I just want them to grow up happy and healthy."
Molly nodded. "Yeah…that sound wonderful…"
