Julie's POV

It's my birthday and all I want to do is relax but of course the phone has to ring!

"Hello?" I asked as I picked up the phone in our dorm room.

"Miss Gaffney?" The person on the other line asked.

"Yes." I said.

"This is Dr. Bridges from the hospital. Can you come up here sometime today?" He asked.

"Is there something wrong with the baby?" I asked worried.

"No, no. I just need to check something out. Can you come?" He asked.

"Yeah I'll be right there." I said.

I was to the point now where I couldn't drive because my belly was the size of an overgrown watermelon so I went to Portman's dorm and told him about what the doctor has said.

On the way to the hospital it was mostly silence as we were both absorbed in our own thoughts. I could tell he was just as worried as me.

"So what do you think he found?" Portman asked finally breaking the silence.

"I don't know. But I hope it's a good thing and not a bad thing." I said as we pulled into the parking lot of the hospital.

I was about to get out myself but Portman rushed over and opened the door for me and helped me out.

He is so cute when he's worried about something.

We went into the lobby and the nurse said that Dr. Bridges was waiting on us.

Went headed to the room number she gave us and got in the elevator to go up to the third floor.

"What are you whistling?" I asked. He always whistled when he was nervous but this time I couldn't place the tune.

"Oh just one of those songs from that movie." He said.

"Newsies?" I asked and he nodded. "I told you you would like it." I said and got that I-told-you-so look on my face.

"Yeah I know. You're always right." He said.

"I know." I said. This little conversation had taken my mind off of what was happening momentarily but as soon as the elevator doors opened I was thrown back into reality.

"Don't worry. Everything will be ok." Portman said sensing my nervousness.

Portman's POV

We walked into the room where Dr's Bridges was waiting for us and holding up one of Julie's x-rays.

"Oh hello." He said as we walked in. "Come have a seat."

We did so as he put the x-ray on one of those little light things that they have in all hospitals.

"Is there something wrong?" Julie asked as he continued to stare at the x- ray.

"I don't know how I missed this." He said. I wish he would just tell us what was wrong but doctors always seem to drag things out.

"What?" Julie asked as her voice began to crack a little.

"Would you mind taking another x-ray for me?" The doctor asked and Julie shook her head. He took her away for a little while to go take the picture.

Man these are the longest few minutes I have ever experienced in my entire life!

Soon Julie walked back in and I smiled as I got up and helped her to her seat.

I could tell she was getting more and more nervous by the minute.

"Did the doctor say anything?" I asked as I sat down beside her.

"No all he did was say hum and all that other doctor crap!" Julie said a little annoyed.

Just then the doctor walked in with a huge smile on his face.

"I was right!" He said a little loudly which caused me and Julie to jump.

"About what?" Julie asked very impatiently.

"Congratulations you have twins!" The doctor said and the worry on our faces turned to shock.

"Are you serious?" Julie asked in disbelief.

"As serious as I'll ever be." The doctor. "You have a healthy baby boy and a healthy baby girl growing inside that big belly of yours."

The ride home was very cheerful and Julie couldn't wait to tell everybody the good news.

Oh my gosh the surprise party. I forgot all about that. She isn't going to have to go far to tell everyone because they are all waiting for her in her dorm.

We entered the school and soon we were at her dorm. She opened the door and was totally shocked when everybody jumped up and screamed Happy Birthday!

"Wow I forgot it was my birthday!" Julie said but then totally changed the subject. "We have twins!"

"Really?" Connie said as everyone's mouths dropped to the floor.

"Yes a boy and a girl!" Julie said and everybody began to congratulate us.

I guess I do get my daddy's girl and Julie gets her mama's boy.

The rest of the night was very happy and cheerful as we ate cake and ice cream and Julie opened her presents.

"Now in a few months we are going to have a baby shower!" Connie said very excited.

"You know you guys buy me way too much stuff." Julie said but everybody just shook their heads in disagreement.

Soon everybody was gone except for me, Connie, and Jules.

We were talking about the babies and stuff when the phone rang.

"Hello?" Julie said as she answered but the immediately got tense. I could tell she didn't want to talk to whoever was on the other line.

Julie's POV

I couldn't believe it. My mom was on the other line.

"Are you there?" She asked because I hadn't answered her.

"Yes." Was all I said.

"Well I called to wish you a happy birthday and to tell you that I sent you a $500 check but I still do not want to se your face or that disgraceful child ever in my life!" She said getting meaner and meaner by the moment.

I didn't want to talk to her after all she put me through. She had even filed a restraining order against me.

I just hung up the phone and looked over at Portman. That is when I realized I had tears rolling down my face.

"Who was it?" Portman asked as he came over and put his arm around me.

I told him who it was and what she said as I began to cry even more.
