Thank you so much to Demon Spawn, Megan, Psychobunny410, Little-Miss-Rachel, Tammi, and MutantXHottie for the great reviews. It's hard to believe this is coming to an end. One chapter after this. Please continue to read and review!
Randy walked into Dani's room the next morning, and she wasn't there. He looked around confused and then set his stuff down and walked out. He walked down to the NICU and there she was. Holding one baby in each arm, tears streaming down her cheeks, she sat there bonding with them. Randy silently wished that he had the digital camera with, but he had left it in Dani's room.
Randy walked in and gowned up. He walked up quietly behind her and kissed her on the top of her head. "Morning, princess."
"Oh Randy, they're so precious. Can you believe that we're parents?" Dani asked.
Randy rubbed her back. It sank in, but it wouldn't fully settle in until they brought them home. "It's hard to believe that just a couple days ago, we were just Randy and Dani, but now here we are as Mr. and Mrs. Orton, Bryson and Brianna's parents."
Dani smiled. "When do you go back to work?"
"Well, that's one of the things I was coming to talk to you about. Can you and I go talk?" Randy replied.
"Sure, no problem." Dani said. She nodded to a nurse who came over and helped her and Randy put the babies back in their incubator.
Randy and Dani walked out of the NICU hand in hand. "What's up?" Dani asked.
"Well, since the doctors are going to be keeping the babies for awhile, what if you and I had a honeymoon?" Randy asked.
Dani looked confused, "I don't know if we should leave the babies for that long, I mean what if something happened while we were gone? Would we ever forgive ourselves?"
"Dani, I don't get that many opportunities to take an extended leave from work. I would like to do it now, go back to work and then when the babies come home, I'll take the week off. But, I really think that you and I should have a little getaway now because we won't have one for a long time." Randy replied. "Besides, mom and dad would probably be here all the time anyway."
Dani nodded, "Can I think about it for a little while?"
Randy nodded, "I need to let Vince know today so they can plan for Raw."
They walked back to Dani's room, and Randy showed Dani all of the pictures of the babies on the digital.
Randy stood up, "Well, I'm going to get going. I have to do the final walk through of our new house. My buddies are going to take care of moving everything so I can be here with you and the babies."
Dani's eyes got big, "I totally forgot that that was scheduled for today. What if instead of whisking me away to some exotic island, we work on getting the house put together. We can unpack and get the nursery ready, and just spend some quality time with each other. That way we're still close by in case something happens, and we're still getting a great vacation."
Randy smiled, "I think that's a great idea." And he kissed her. "I love you. I'll make the arrangements."
Dani smiled and waved as he left. Dani sat down and began filling out the twins' baby books.
By the time Randy got back, Dani had already been discharged. She was hanging out with Elaine, Bob and Becky outside of the NICU. Randy smiled, "Well, now we're married, parents and homeowners!"
Dani smiled and stood up slowly. She was still pretty sore from delivering. "That's wonderful."
They hugged. It was time to start getting back to normal life again. Randy and Dani stayed and chatted for awhile, and then they decided to get along on their way. They stopped inside and held the babies, kissed them and let them know that they would still check on them, but that mommy wouldn't be in the hospital all the time. Then they left the hospital to go to the house.
ONE WEEK LATER…
Dani stood in the terminal with Randy, getting ready to say goodbye. Their week together had brought about many laughs, many visitors, and some much-needed alone time.
The house looked great, they painted every room in the house, bought new furniture, got most of the rooms organized, the nursery looked wonderful, and their bedroom was perfect.
But, now Randy had to go back to work. They had stopped by the hospital so Randy could say goodbye to the twins. He had packed an entire album of the babies and some of the wedding photos that their friends had taken.
Dani still could see Randy sitting in NICU with the twins in his arms, tears streaming down his face because he felt guilty for leaving them.
Randy pulled Dani close and held her. "I love you princess, I'll call you when I get there."
"I love you too Randy." She replied.
"Let the kids know I'm thinking of them." Randy said letting go of her. He grabbed his carry on, kissed her goodbye and walked onto the plane.
Dani stood there by the window until the plane was gone. Then she headed off to go back to the hospital for awhile, then she would go home and work on the house some more.
Sorry if this chapter was a little lame, but the last chapter will be better, I promise! Lots of surprises! Please continue to read and review!
