I heard Gwen wake up and move beside me. She reached over and touched my shoulder lightly and I rolled over and looked at her.
" You okay sweetheart?" I asked, seeing the slight look of pain on her face.
" It's time." She said, taking a deep breath. I sat up and looked at her. My heart started to beat a million miles a minuet. It was time to bring our daughter into the world. I got up and threw some clothes on and helped her pull some on herself. We walked out to the door and I put her in the car. I ran back inside and woke up Jay and Denise and told them what was going on. They told me to go ahead and go, and that they'd bring Will later on. I ran back out to the car and saw Gwen nearly folded in two, crying in pain. I got in and put the pedal to the medal and went to the hospital.
They took Gwen into a room and got her ready for the delivery. I didn't understand a word the doctors were saying, but as long as I had Gwen's hand, and knew she was okay, everything would be all right.
Finally it was time to start pushing. I held Gwen's hand and she started to push.
" Come on baby, you can do it." I said, helping her sit up. She pushed with all her might till the count of ten and then she lay back down.
" Gwen, the baby is coming out back wards we're going to have to do a Cesarean Section to get the baby out." The doctor said.
" What's that? Is she okay?" I asked, worried.
" Everything will be okay Mr. Gerin." The doctor said looking at me. I nodded and looked back down at Gwen. I pushed the sweaty hair out of her face and kissed her forehead.
" I love you Terry." She said weakly, she looked so tired.
" I love you too Gwen." I said. They put a mask over her that put her asleep and wheeled her out of the room. One of the nurses showed me to the waiting room where I saw Jay, Denise, Jessica, Will, Alanah, Adam, Scott, Matt, Amy (five months pregnant with her and Matt's first baby), and Jeff waiting on me.
" Do you have a baby girl yet?" Jeff asked. I sat down and shook my head.
" They have to do a Cesarean Section. The baby was coming out backwards." I said. I ran my hands through my hair and felt Amy's arms around me. I hugged her back and we sat there for what seemed to be forever. Finally the doctor came out and approached me.
" Mr. Gerin, your wife is doing just fine." He said. I let out a sigh of relief. " And your babies are in the nursery down the hall."
" Wait a minuet, babies?" I said confused.
" You and your wife are the proud parents of two healthy baby girls." He said.
" Guenevere Gerin?" I said. I looked at everyone else who was just as shocked as I was.
" Yep. Congratulations." He said. " Now if you excuse me, I have another mommy and daddy on their way." He said, shaking my hand.
" Thank you." I said, my mouth hanging open I'm sure.
" Looks like Terry had it goin' on a little more than he thought he did." Scott said. I got red and looked at him.
" Shut up and lets go look at my girls." I said proudly. I took Will from Denise's arms and walked down the hall to the nursery window. We got there just as they were bringing two baby girls in the nursery. They brought them up front and put them in two cribs up front. I looked at the tag on the front and saw the name Gerin on the crib. Those were my babies. " Look Will, those are your baby sisters." I said, pointing to the little girls up front. Will put his small hands on the glass. He was so amazed by the babies behind the glass. I couldn't believe that I helped create these three little wonders, one in my arms and the two in front of me. Wow, twin girls, imagine the fun I'll have fighting the boyfriends off.
Will and I went to see Gwen after a few more minuets of looking at the girls. I walked in to see her sleeping. We went in and sat down in a chair beside her bed. She woke up and looked at me.
" How is she?" she asked. She didn't know about the twins yet. Ha! This was going to be fun.
" Great, in fact, so great, that she's in the nursery with her sister." I said.
" Sister?" she said, still slightly sedated.
" It was twins." I said smiling.
" Twins? Wow, looks like I got my little girls." She said smiling. She leaned in and kissed me.
" Looks like we're gonna need another crib and car seat." I said.
" Looks like we are." She said.
THE END!!!!
(Author's note: I was sitting there thinking about how I was going to end this story. I thought about doing an alternate ending where Gwen dies, my original plan, but then thought, No, I don't want to kill her. That would be cruel. So I gave them twins. Happy endings all around once again. Well, I hope you like it. (Thanks for the reviews Nik!!!!! I SO miss talking to you!!!!) TTFN.....................R.G.)
