In the morning Angel was sitting at the kitchen table with a cup of tea, reading a parenting magazine. The article he was reading, was about how to say no to your child when they want something they can't have. Angel could just picture himself being the one who always says yes to cookies before dinner and Buffy the one saying no to the kid staying up late. Angel thought to himself, *I'm sure I could just say no. It's not that hard.* Then Angel pictured his four or five year old daughter asking for a cookie before dinner, while Buffy is in the same room cooking. He would of course say no... then the daughter would stomp her foot and repeat, "Gimme a cookie! Pleeease." In her sweetest voice. Then she'd give Angel that adorable pout Buffy uses and he'd end up giving in. Angel smiled at that thought. A daughter. Soon he will be a father. Soon he'll be able to spoil his daughter a little, play with her and teach her about life. He and Buffy would be walking in the park in the morning and then Buffy will push their daughter on the swings. Then they'd have a picnic with junk food, but also fruits of course. Gotta keep the child strong and healthy.
Buffy was in the bedroom, searching through her purse wildly. She dumped the contents out and looked through the pile of keys, makeup, her wallet, receipts and the checkbook. She couldn't find the sonogram picture anywhere. She quickly dumped the contents back into her purse and started looking through the drawers. Still no luck. She sighed and walked into the kitchen.
Angel was interrupted from his thoughts by Buffy who walked in and took the magazine out of his hands, shaking it upside down. *Nope not in there either.* She thought. She went to the fridge where it should have been put in the first place, but it wasn't there. Angel heard her squeal. When she sat down on Angel's lap defeated, he gently asked, "What's wrong, honey?"
She put her arm around him. "Angel, I can't find the sonogram picture! I was hoping to show it to my mom, Willow and Cordelia. Plus I like it. It's the only way I can look at the baby till she's born."
Angel kissed her forehead. "I could call to make an appointment to do another ultrasound."
Buffy smiled at him. She asked sweetly, "Could you?"
"No. You'll have to wait for six months to see the baby." He said, smirking.
"You teaser."
He lifted her off of him and got up, "I'll go make the call. You. Go rest in bed for now."
"Yes, daddy."

Angel walked into the bedroom to find Buffy asleep with her hand resting on her abdomen. LeeLou was curled up to the right of Buffy with her head on Buffy's stomach. Angel went over to the bed, took off his shoes and laid on his stomach next to her. He pet LeeLou and then he put his arm around her waist and kissed her lips. A huge grin appeared on her face. Buffy turned on her side and wrapped her arm around Angel. There was pleasent silence and the air was filled with love. Angel quietly said, "I called Dr. Morano. She said we can come in today at 12 o'clock."
"Great. Ya think she'd give us two copies?"
"Can't see why not."
"Good." She yawned. "Wake me up when it's time."
"I shall." He kissed her cheek and closed his eyes along with her.
At some point in Buffy's deep sleep the blackness she sees from her eyelids being shut slowly fades to a light gray of cloudiness to a bright place with many colors and then it becomes completely clear. There is perfectly cut grass in a perfect shade of green. There was a sunflower in front of her. Then she realized that she was smelling it. Slowly she started walking to a cabin. She opened the door and peaked in. She thought maybe that it belonged to someone else, but it smelt like home. There was water running. She walked in, the smell of cookies lead her into the kitchen.
Angel and their daughter were washing a bowl together, water splashing all over the place. The daughter was standing on a short stepping ladder. They were laughing. It was sweet. Buffy couldn't help, but smile at the picture of her daughter and her fiancé making a mess, having fun while doing it. Wait... if the girl is what three years old? *Then duh!* she thought, *Angel and I are married.* Angel turned and gave her a loving look with his eyes and smile. He whispered to their daughter, "Teri-Anne, go say hi to mommy."
Teri-Anne had hazel eyes and brown hair. She was wearing overalls and a pink T-shirt. She happily said, "Kay!"
She got off the steps and ran over to Buffy giving her waist a tight hug.
Buffy's gasped and back moved a forward a bit at the sudden pressure. She laughed and wrapped her arms around her daughter. "Hey..." She said quietly, "You've been a good girl?"
Teri-Anne giggled, "Yup! Vewy gwood girl."
Buffy gave Teri-Anne's forehead a kiss and put her down. "Honey, can you please leave your father and I alone for a sec?"
"Are you two gowna play?"
Buffy blushed and Angel laughed. "Uh, not. Can't have any of that in the kitchen."
"Kay... I'll be back." Their daughter ran off to her room.
Buffy walked over to Angel and quietly said, "She--She's seen us in the middle of... making love?"
Angel quickly replied, "Well not really seen. More like just heard us go..." He pulled her roughly to his body, yet gentle at the same time. "Bump. In the night." She laughed and kissed him on the lips. When they're lips parted Angel continued, "The other one has seen us though, but luckily we had the sheets over us. So when she walked in all she saw was me on top of you. She thought I was tickling you." He smiled at the memory of their other daughter saying, "Mommy?" just as Buffy was about to climax. They were giggling hysterically after that.
Buffy's face scrunched up, "Other one?"
Angel rubbed her back, "Yeah, you know the other rambunctious three year old? Her name is Morgan?"
"Oh..." She looked at her bare feet.
He put his hands on her arms and tilted her away from his chest. "Buffy, are you ok? Did you hit your head or something?"
She smiled, "Uh... yeah. I uh was out in the field and there was this big bee... I tried to get away from it and ya know stumbled, so the back of my head hit the tree." She let out a fake chuckle. "Clumsy me."
"So... Where is Morgan?"
"In the living room watching Scooby Doo."
"Great... I'll just go and..."
"Buffy... Buffy wake up..."
Buffy was interrupted by a soothing voice. She smiled and looked at Angel who was lightly shaking her. "I'm up, I'm up."
"It's time to go."
Buffy leaped off the bed. "Great!" She ran into the living room and put her shoes on. She shouted happily, "Let's go!"
Angel was slightly taken aback by her sudden excitement. He didn't want to keep the joyous blond waiting for fear of setting off her sometimes unplesent hormones. He quickly put on his shoes, grabbed his keys and walked out through the already opened door.
On the way, driving to the hospital to meet with the doctor Angel asked, "What were yout dreamin' about?"
"Huh?"
"After I woke up I was watching you sleep and you had this huge smile on your face. You must have been dreaming. Looked pleasant."
She replied dreamily, "It.. was a very happy dream. We had apparently two girls. One was Teri-Anne... she had brown hair and hazel eyes. The other.. her name was Morgan. If we happen to have another girl in the future can we not name her Morgan? I mean it's a nice name I just don't see us having a daughter named Morgan. Strange that the otehr twin in my dream would have that name."
"Ok... Not Morgan. Twins?"
She smiled, "Yeah. Twins. Hey, do you think maybe the dream is like prophetic or something?"
"I don't know... Maybe it means something."
"That would be nice don't you think? Two bundles of joy?"
Angel smiled and two baby girls in her arms, "Yes, very nice."
"Speaking of nice... Our nice wedding is in one week! I can't wait. Soon we'll be married and then when the baby is born... we'll be a nice little family." Buffy grinned at their future family picture.
"I can't wait either... But there is that one night that I could live without and with something else."
"What's that?" Buffy asked.
Angel looked at her briefly and smiled, "That one night where we spend the night apart. The whole superstition that it's bad luck for the bride and groom to see each other before the wedding. I'd rather spend that night with you, then apart."
"Oh, me too, but it's tradition... Gotta do it. Do you really want to risk bad luck? I kinda believe in some superstitions and sorta the idea that some things are prophetic."
Angel pouted, "Do we have to?"
"You big baby." She laughed and smiled, "Suck it up and be a man. We'll have a whole two weeks on the honeymoon!"
"You're right. I'm sure you'll reward me grandly."
Buffy slapped him playfully. Then she purred, "Yes.. I will."
Angel grinned.

In the hospital room Buffy and Angel were waiting for Dr. Morano to have the Ultrasound set up. The doctor put the cool substance on her stomach. Looking at the screen the doctor mumbled to herself, "Huh. That's funny."
Buffy's eyes widened as she peered closer at the screen. "What is it?"
"There are two seperate heartbeats."
Angel stared closer at the screen. "What?"
Dr. Morano smiled at them. "You are going have twins. Congratulations."
Buffy quickly sat up, grinning, "Twins?!"
"It looks like two girls." The doctor replied still staring at the screen.
"That's wonderful, Buffy." Angel kissed her cheek.
"Yes... Dr. Morano, can you please print two sonograms for us?"
"No problem." She pressed a button and two small images were printed out.
She handed them to Buffy who held it and stared at it for what seemed like five minutes. Angel whispered, "Get dressed."
As Buffy was getting dressed Angel continued, "We'll go home.. put on something nice. Do you have a fancy dress in the closet?"
Buffy was putting on the last of her clothing. "Uh-huh, I probably do."
Angel smiled, "Good. Tonight we'll call up our friends, family and we'll go to a nice restaurant to celebrate."
After she got her sneakers on, she went up to him and hugged him. "Sounds perfect."

At a fancy Italian restaurant a big room was blocked off. In the room was a long brown, oval table which had a white runner with leaves and impatients running along the middle. The plates were ivory with a stip of gold along the edge of the rims. The wine glasses were a perfect shape. The top of the glasses also had a strip of gold.
On one end of the table was Buffy and Angel sitting next to each other facing the others. Joyce sat next to Buffy, follwed by Willow, then Cordelia, Xander and Anya. Xander would always sit between Cordelia and Anya because they have a tendency to have fights over elbow space. On the other side of the table next to Angel was his parents, sister Kate, his good friend Jimmy and Lorne. Willow, Cordelia and Xander were talking about their childhood memories with Buffy. Angel stared lovingly at Buffy's every movement. The twinkle in her eyes, her beautiful smile and that wonderful laugh. Joyce was speaking with his parents, getting further acquainted with each other. They shared happy moments of Buffy and Angel's childhood, especially the embarrassing ones. Joyce had just told Angel's mom that Buffy used to call milk moo. She jumped into the conversation, "Mom, that's embarrassing."
Joyce replied, "Honey, it's not embarrassing. It's cute."
Buffy added, "It's completely logical for a three you old to call a container of milk moo when there is a cow on it."
Angel put his hand on her knee. "Very logical. . besides it's compared to some of the things I've done that is defenately not embarrassing... trust me."
His mother smiled and said, "That is very true Buffy. From what I've heard of your little silly moments.. none of them compare to Angel. My sister lives in Colorado and when he was twelve, he was going there to visit her. The day of the flight he asks me if there is an ocean in Colorado."
They all laughed including Buffy who was laughing hysterically. "You... asked if Colorado had an ocean?!"
Angel grinned, "I wasn't thinking. I was twelve... I rarely asked intelligent questions at that age."
Anya was chatting with Jimmy. She was quite amazed in his ability to talk nonstop like her. Well her she didn't really have the opportunity to speak nonstop because almost every word that came out of her mouth was a comparison to sex and no one was ever really interested. An exception to Xander and Angel, she always thought most men only thought about sex, money and what type of underwear a woman was wearing or if they weren't whering any at all. This Jimmy though was certainly not shallow. He was charming. Too bad she's dating Xander.. She thought, *he is defenately a datable guy.*
Lorne was humming L.O.V.E. quietly as he buttered his Italian bread.
When it looked like everyone's conversation was just about finished he stood up with a glass of wine in his hand and tapped it. "Excuse me..." Everyone gave him their attention and Buffy held his hand. "First I would like to thank you all for coming on such short notice. We decided to celebrate because we found out something wonderful today that we feel you must know. What you know is that Buffy's pregnant with a girl. Funny thing... Buffy lost the sonogram picture and wanted another one, so I made an appointment with the doctor and then Buffy had a dream about having two girls which is quite a coincidence becau--"
He was interrupted by Jimmy who jokingly shouted, "Sometime this year!"
Angel smiled and continued, "Ok. Ok. Buffy is having twins! Two girls."
Willow nearly jumped out of her seat. "That's great!"
Joyce smiled at Angel's mom, "We're going to be grandmothers of twins!"
Angel's mom kissed his cheaks. "Congrats... You're going to make a wonderful dad."
Buffy grinned and tightened her grip on his hand. "Yes, he will."

Buffy and Angel were laying in bed. Angel in boxers, Buffy in his boxers and a white tank top. She was resting her head on his upper arm and Angel had his arm wrapped around her. She whispered, "That went well."
He simply mumbled, "Mmm."
"It's true you know." Angel looked at her. "You are going to be wonderful father." She kissed his cheek.
Angel kissed her back on the lips. "And you are going to be the greatest mother a child could have."
"You're too sweet." Buffy said as she rubbed his chest with her hand.
They lay content in silence for almost thirty minutes. Occasionally their tongues were held captive in heated kisses. Their arms roaming each other's bodies and feet playing with each other. Angel loving the touch of Buffy's milky silk skin and she loving Angel's the feel of his hard chest. Before long Angel's hand was under Buffy's tank top, caressing her soft and slightly fuller breast. She giggled and let her hand travel under his pants to squeeze his butt hard. He slightly jolted in surprise. Then the bed shook lighly suddenly, causing Buffy to look up towards the edge of the bed. There was LeeLou sitting on the edge of the bed, staring at them clueless of the events that would come. Angel continued however, ignoring the dog and gave Buffy moist kisses on the neck. She moaned and tried to get out of his embrace. He would have none of it though as he wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her tighter against his hard self. Buffy let a out a tiny gasp. She gave in for about a minute, kissing him passionately. Then he returned her passionate kiss with his own and then he slowly started to lift her tank top off of her. As he did he kissed her stomach. Buffy giggled slightly and then quickly broke off the kiss and held her arms down, pulling the tank top back down to cover her breasts. Angel sighed, "What's wrong?"
Buffy laid her head face down on his chest and mumbled, "LeeLou. . . She's watching us."
Angel grinned, "So let her watch. She could learn a thing or two."
Buffy laughed and said, "Ew! Angel that's..."
He interrupted her with his fingers suddenly inside her boxers and inside her moving around sending bolts of electricity through her body. "Oooh... God... Angel not..."
"Not what?" He said as he pushed his two fingers with an added one, deeper inside her moist heat.
"Uh... Um..." Angel increased his ministrations weakening her train of thought. "Dog.. LeeLou." He pushed in harder and faster. Her breath increased. "Oh! God... Angel. Not in front of her. Please... mmmm. Let's just do this.."
He curled his finger a little and moved faster playing with her clit eliciting a loud moan from her. LeeLou let out a little whimper and laid down, digging her face in her arms. Imbetween her moaning Buffy weakly said, "Make love... some other... Oh!" She bucked. "Time. . . God Angel. Not now, stop."
Angel huskily whispered, "When you come."
She chuckled slightly as he pulled her on of him and continued pulling his fingers in and out while kissing her. Before long she was coming all over him and covering his lips in a passionate kiss. He whispred, "Now was that so bad?"
Buffy smiled, "Well it certainly felt good, but... LeeLou." She blushed.
She looked at the puppy and chuckled, "She's as embarrassed as I am."
"Sure you don't wanna continue?"
She smiled, "I am positive. I've had enough embarrassing moments for one night."
Angel smiled, wrapping his arms around her, moving up and down her back. "So... sleep?"
"Yes, I'd say sleep is in order. Who knows maybe at some point in the middle of the night LeeLou will be in another room and we can do what your are craving so badly for."
She rolled off him, his arm still wrapped around her and kissed him on the lips. "Goodnight, sweety."
He kissed her back on the forehead. "Night, love."
