Chapter Fourteen/My Dear Sweet Child:

David was preparing for J.J.'s birthday party, J.J. was at work unaware of the surprise. David got a call from his sister Cicely.

"David here." He said.

"Hey bro, me and Gigi got the cake, Noah is bringing the presents and Austin is getting the ice cream." Cicely said.

"Awesome, I'll see you guys in a little bit." David said.

Later that night, David picked up J.J. from work, and brought her home.

"Ugh, my feet hurt." J.J. said.

Without warning, David lifted her up off her feet.

"I'll be your feet then." David chuckled.

She kissed his cheek.

"Funny, but I think I can manage." J.J. said.

David put her down. J.J. opened the door, and then...

"SURPRISE!"

David picked her back up and spun her around. She was laughing hysterically. David sat her down in a chair.

"Happy Birthday Sweetheart!" David said.

"Oh my gosh, you guys planned this all for me?" J.J. asked.

"Nope, it was all David's idea." Noah said.

"Well I couldn't have done it without you guys." David said.

J.J. stood up and kissed David. There was a collective "Aww".

"I had no idea I married the sweetest guy in the world.

Austin brought out the cake with the number 23 on it. They all sang happy birthday to her, and she blew out the candles.

Later, David and J.J. were getting ready for bed. J.J. was in the bathroom gargling mouth wash and spitting it out. From behind her, David came up and hugged her.

"I hope you had a good birthday." David said.

"The best, I don't think anything could make this day better." J.J. said.

"Well..." David said.

"Well what?" J.J. asked.

"Wait here." David said.

He ran to the stereo in their room and started playing "Careless Whisper" by George Michael.

"David you devil, how did you know my birthday wish?" J.J. asked.

"I know you too well, sweetheart." David said.

The next day, David woke up in his bed. He heard the sound of a sizzling pan. He walked into the kitchen and saw J.J. making breakfast.

"Morning sweetie, I'm making you some breakfast." J.J. said.

"Oh J.J., you didn't have to do that." David said.

"Well, it was the least I could do after that marvelous birthday party last night. Not to mention the present you gave me." J.J. said.

"I'm glad you like your new china collection." David said.

"I wasn't talking about that." She said winking.

They both started blushing.

Five days later, J.J. was at work. However, she wasn't feeling very well. Gigi noticed, and decided to talk to her.

"Hey J.J., are you alright?" Gigi asked.

"Yeah, my stomach just hurts a little." J.J. said.

"Have you eaten anything strange lately?" Gigi asked.

"I don't think so." J.J. said.

Gigi feels J.J.'s forehead.

"You don't have a fever. How long have you been sick?" Gigi asked.

"About four days." J.J. said.

"Hmm, probably just a stomach bug. Or maybe... YOUR PREGNANT." Gigi joked.

They both started laughing.

"Yeah right." J.J. said.

The following day, David was sitting in his room watching Comedy Central.

"Hahahaha, South Park you make me laugh." David said.

He heard the sound of J.J. coming through the front door.

"Hey, welcome home honey. How was your day?" David asked.

J.J. didn't say a word. David muted his TV.

"Honey?" David asked.

Still no response. David walked into the living room, and saw J.J. standing with a very scared look on her face.

"J.J. what's wrong?" David asked.

J.J. held up a pregnancy test stick, with a plus sign on it.

"I'm pregnant." J.J. said.

"You're pregnant?" David asked.

"Yes." J.J. said.

David picked J.J. up and hugged her.

"I'm so happy for you, we're going to be parents." David said excitedly.

David was very happy about this, J.J. however was silent.

"What's wrong?" David asked.

"I'm scared. What if I'm not a good mother?" J.J. asked.

"Honey..."

David took J.J. in his arms.

"...There is not a doubt in my mind that you will be the best mother ever." David said.

"I'll have mood swings." J.J. said.

"Worse than my mothers?" David asked jokingly.

J.J. chuckled.

"I don't care if your mood swings make you hate me, I'm going to make sure you are okay." David said.

"I want you to know now that if I ever say that I hate you during that period, I don't mean it. I couldn't possibly love you anymore than I already do. My heartbeat says your name with every tap."

J.J. put David's head to her heart.

"Da-vid Se-ville, see." J.J. said.

They both laughed.

"What about names?" J.J. asked.

"Names? We don't even know the gender yet." David said.

"You're right I'm getting ahead of myself. Just promise me you'll stick with me through this." J.J. said.

David kissed her forehead.

"I'm never leaving your side." David said.

David and J.J. called their friends and family to tell them the good news.

"Guys, we have something important to tell you." David said.

"I'm pregnant." J.J. said.

Everyone applauded and cheered for them.

"I'm going to be an aunt!" Cicely said.

"I'm so happy for you two." Noah said.

"This is so exciting, I'm so glad you guys are happy." J.J. said.

"We couldn't be happier, you two are going to make great parents." Austin said.

"I can't wait to spoil that little squirt rotten." Gigi joked.

Everybody was happy of the joyous miracle on the way.

Later that day, J.J. was taking a nap. David had just gotten home from picking up some headache medicine for her. He came in quietly assuming she rested her head, when he noticed a missed call. He played the message that was left:

J.J., it's Doctor Tompkins. I need to talk to you it's urgent.

BEEP

David decided to dial the number back, seeing how it was urgent.

"Hello, yes I'm looking for Doctor Tompkins... Hello Doctor, this is David Seville, I'm calling on behalf of my wife J.J."

...

"Yes."

...

"What?"

...

"Are you sure?"

...

"Mr. Seville, are you still there?"

David hung up the phone, he couldn't speak and cry at the same time.

J.J. woke up at the sound of David crying. She walked into the living room to see him on knees.

"David, what's wrong?" J.J. asked.

David looked his wife in the eyes, knowing she would never be able to handle the truth. However, he couldn't keep this to himself.

"False positive." David said.

J.J.'s heart sunk.

"What?" J.J. asked.

"Doctor Tompkins just called, it was a false positive. You were never pregnant." David said.

J.J. fell to her knees in tears. David went to comfort her, they laid there for the remainder of the night crying.

A week later, things have been quiet around David and J.J.'s house. No one had mentioned a word about what happened. J.J. especially was quiet, but something strange was going on. Anytime David spoke up, she never responded, not once. David was concerned. One day, J.J. came home from work and David was anxious to get a word out of her.

"J.J., you haven't spoken to me since..."

David sighed heavily.

"If you're mad at me, I'd prefer that you said it instead of ignoring me." David said.

J.J. broke down in tears. David hugged her.

"I'm sorry, I didn't speak because I couldn't. I didn't want to talk about it, I just wanted to forget it." J.J. said sobbing.

"J.J., you know we can try again." David said.

"I don't know if it will work." J.J. said.

"If we never try, it's a guarantee that we'll never have a kid." David said.

"I can't, at least not yet. I need time for this to blow over." J.J. said.

David kissed her cheek.

"Absolutely." David said.

The next day, J.J. sat in her room reading a book on how to be ready for the second try. David was at work, so she felt safe reading this. She wouldn't want David to see her reading, she didn't know why though. As she was reading, something caught her eye.

"Wow, how about that." She said.

David entered through the front door after a long day of work.

"I'm home sweet heart." David said.

He suddenly heard KC and the Sunshine Band's hit single "That's the way (I like it)" blasting from his bedroom.

"What the?" David said.

Curiosity got the best of him as he looked in his room, and saw J.J. in the bed.

"J.J., what's going on?" David asked.

"I'm happy you're home, now we can have some fun." J.J. said.

She got up and walked over to David.

"Are you sure about this?" David asked.

"I was sure the first time..."

She yanked off his shirt.

"...I'm ecstatic now." J.J. said.

J.J. and David were at the hospital five weeks later, just to make sure that she was really pregnant.

"Well Doc?" David asked.

"She's pregnant." The doctor said.

David and J.J. were both happy and hugged each other.

"How long until we can tell the gender?" David asked.

"I'd say about 18 to 20 weeks in the pregnancy." The doctor said.

J.J. was so happy, she was going to have a little girl or boy.

Five months later, J.J., Gigi and Cicely were talking about the baby.

"So, do you know what it's going to be?" Cicely asked.

"It's going to be a girl." J.J. said.

"Oh that's great! Have you thought of any names for her?" Gigi asked.

"Well, me and David both agreed to name her Marie Kae Seville." J.J. said.

Gigi and Cicely both were happy.

"That's so sweet of you two." Gigi said.

Four months later, J.J. was in the later stage of her pregnancy. David was helping her as much as he could. And then...

"Uh oh." J.J. said.

...that faithful day came.

"Uh oh what?" David asked.

"My water just broke." J.J. said.

David quickly got J.J. to the hospital, and left a message to the whole family letting them know. When J.J. was in the hospital, she was feeling great pain. The doctor's were rushing her to the emergency room.

"Okay Mrs. Seville, we're going to put you under for the delivery." The doctor said.

She was soon out like a light.

"I hope the baby will be okay." David said.

"Don't worry, they'll be fine. We'll make sure of it." The doctor said.

David froze for a second.

"Wait, did you say 'they', Doctor?" David asked.

"Yeah, you didn't know? You're having twins, Mr. Seville. One boy and one girl." The doctor said.

David couldn't believe his ears, twins.

J.J. woke up, next to David holding her baby daughter.

"Say hello to your daughter." David said.

J.J. took her baby into her arms.

"She's so precious." J.J. said.

She looked over at David holding a baby boy.

"This is your son." David said.

J.J. looked confused.

"We had twins." David said.

"That's wonderful." J.J. said.

"Yeah, it's like in a way we never lost the first one." David said.

Noah knocked on the door.

"Can we come in?" Noah asked.

"Yeah, come in and meet the little miracles." David said.

"That's a plural, you had twins?" Noah asked.

"Twins?" Gigi asked.

Noah, Gigi, Austin and Cicely walked in to see the beautiful baby boy and girl.

"They're so cute." Gigi said.

"Twins, how ironic." Cicely said looking at her brother.

"What are their names?" Austin asked.

"Marie Kae Seville and Thomas Keith Seville." J.J. said.

This day was a good day for the Seville family, as it's second pair of twins has been introduced to the world.
