"Would you cut that out?" Vash said in an irritated voice to Wolfwood who was tapping on the table almost uncontrollably.
"Oh. Sorry." Wolfwood said putting his hand in his lap. He then began to tap his foot on the floor.
"Ugh! What's wrong with you!" Vash asked annoyed.
Wolfwood looked at him with blood shot eyes. "Milly has been driving me crazy, With all her mood swings and weird food cravings at the worst times! I love her but-" Wolfwood leaned over the table and grabbed Vash's collar. "a man can only take so much before he goes crazy!"
Vash just looked at him strangely. "Uhhhh, Yeah." He said taking Wolfwood's hands off him. "Don't worry once she has the baby she'll be back to normal." Vash said trying to calm him down.
"Y-yeah, your probably right." He said calming down a little.
"So how is it going with you and not smoking?" Vash asked changing the subject.
Wolfwood's eyes narrowed. His eye began to twitch. "Oh f-fine." He said slowly turning towards Vash.
"Uh-huh…" Vash said calmly. "Did you use the gum?"
"Yes."
"Did it work?"
"No."
"What about the patches."
"Actually those help a lot." Wolfwood said pulling up his sleeve reveling twenty different patches all over his arm.
Vash looked at his arm then him. "Ooook…….So how'd you handle it before the patches?" He asked curiously.
"Oh pretty well, I think."
Flash back
Wolfwood is sitting in the corner of the room, fetal position, rocking back and forth, with blood shot eyes, and is sweating a lot. Meryl knocks on the door then walks in.
"Mr. Wolfwood dinner is ready." She said before she notices Wolfwood in the corner.
He suddenly stops rocking back and forth and stares at her as his eye begins to twitch. "No-NO! You can't make me! S-stop taunting me!" He then runs under the bed and hisses at her like a cat.
"Uhhhhhh...Maybe I should come back later…." Meryl said trying to walk away slowly, but before she could escape Wolfwood pops out from under the bed and jumps out the window. (Luckily he was on the first floor.)
"NOOOOOOOOOOOO!" He screamed while running out the window.
Meryl just sits there for awhile, with a blank stare on her face, then slowly walks out the room, her expression not changing.
End Flash back
Wolfwood was just staring into space thinking of that memory when Milly came down. She was now eight in-a-half months pregnant and huge. She hobbled down the stares like an over weight penguin. Wolfwood would have ran over and helped her down the stairs, but every time he did Milly would yell at him and bite his head off saying something like "I'm perfectly capable of doing it on my own!" Then she would begin to cry and beg for forgiveness for acting that way. Personally, he was tired of it.
"Whatcha guys talkin' about?" Milly asked.
"Nothing." Wolfwood said snapping out of his thoughts.
Milly went to the refrigerator and grabbed a cup of pudding. Then she walked over and sat next to her husband. She gave him a kiss on the cheek. He smiled, Milly may stress him out sometimes but he still loved her, and when she kissed him all his troubles seemed to have just disappeared. He watched her eat her cup of pudding and would have watched her all day, if Vash wouldn't have been so clumsy as to fall backwards in his chair and almost knock the table over.
"Ow!" Vash said rubbing his head.
"That was smart." Wolfwood said sarcastically.
Vash got up and put the chair back in its place. Milly was so into her cup of pudding that she had paid no attention to him and didn't even realized he had fallen. Vash stuck his tongue out at Wolfwood and walked into the other room. Wolfwood just rolled his eyes and began to watch Milly finish eating her pudding.
"So….How are you?" He finally asked.
"I'm fine, you?" She said finally finishing her pudding.
"I'm ok." He said still watching her.
"Are you ok? You've been watching me since I've walked in." She said giving him an odd look.
"I was just admiring your beauty." He said with a grin.
She smiled. "Stop, your making me blush." She said blushing. Then her smile turned into a frown. "I'm not beautiful, I'm a big cow!" She said putting her face into her hands.
"No! Don't say that! You're beautiful!" He said hugging her.
"I mean look at me! I'm enormous!" She said standing up from her chair showing off her huge belly.
"No you're not! Your just pregnant. Once you have the baby you'll look like your normal self." He said with a cheerful smile trying to make her feel better.
"Are you saying I look abnormal!" She said in an angry voice.
"What? I didn't say th-!"
"You said 'you'll look like your normal self'! So what? Right now I'm not normal?" She interrupted him.
"What I meant was-"
"What? What did you mean?" She said interrupting him yet again.
"I meant you'll act like your normal self! I'm sorry Milly but I'm getting sick and tired of all your stupid mood swings!" He said in a harsh tone. Milly's eye's began to water. "Oh Milly wait-I didn't mean to- What I meant was-"
"No, your right, I'm sorry." She said looking down trying to hide her tears.
"No, it's not your fault. You can't help it." He said hugging her.
Vash was sitting in the other room watching them argue the whole time. "Wow. That was amazing." He said faking a sniff. "Watching you two is like watching a soap opera!" He said in a goofy voice. Wolfwood just gave him the middle finger while still hugging Milly. Vash just gave him a goofy smile.
"Hey, Where's Meryl?" Milly asked releasing Wolfwood.
"I dunno." Vash said shrugging his shoulders.
"I'm right here you morons!" Meryl said in an angry tone. She had been sitting on the couch next to Vash the whole time.
"Oh! There you are!" Vash said with a nervous smile.
"What do you mean 'Oh! There you are!' I've been sitting here the whole time you idiot!" She said smacking him on the back of the head.
"Ow! That hurt! You promised you would stop hitting me when we got married." Vash said rubbing his head.
"Well you deserved that." Meryl said crossing her arms. "Not noticing your own wife, stupid jerk." She said under her breath.
Milly all of the sudden walked up to her room saying nothing.
"I'm hungry." Vash said getting up and walking to the kitchen.
Wolfwood noticed Milly walking away. "Where ya goin' Milly?" He asked.
"To get my bags." She said casually.
"Why?" He asked just as Vash slipped on the floor falling backwards in to a small puddle of water.
"Ow, my poor head." Vash said lying there for a while.
"My water just broke." Milly continued casually while walking up the stairs.
"WHAT?" Wolfwood and Meryl both exclaimed at the same time.
"Ewwwwwww!" Vash said quickly jumping up.
"Oh my God! Are you serious?" Meryl asked
"No, I'm just kidding, that's why I'm leaking everywhere. Of course I'm serious! Now hurry up!" Milly said walking into her room.
Wolfwood ran after her. "Milly just get in the car I'll get your bags." He said grabbing her stuff.
Milly walked out the room and down the stairs. Meryl helped her out the door and into the car.
While gathering Milly's things Wolfwood noticed Vash walking past their room on his way to his room. "Where are you going?" He asked in a rushed voice.
"To take a shower." Vash replied with a some what irritated voice.
"There's no time! we need to go now." Wolfwood said throwing Milly's bag over his shoulder and grabbing Vash by the back of his collar.
"But-"
"NO! Now come on!" Wolfwood said dragging Vash down the stairs. He threw Vash into the back of the car next to Meryl.
Milly was sitting in the front seat. She was already beginning contractions. "Hurry up and drive!" She said while having a contraction.
"Ok ok!" He said putting the car into reverse. He backed out of the drive way and drove as fast as he could to the nearest hospital.
When they got there a bunch of doctors came in and hurried Milly to the delivery room. Wolfwood followed but the doctors wouldn't let him in. He gave her a kiss before they took her in.
"Damn!……I hope she'll be ok on her own." He said as he watched the doors shut. He walked over to where Vash and Meryl were sitting and sat next to Vash.
"She'll be ok." Vash said with a smile.
"I hope so." Wolfwood said quietly. He looked up at Vash. "Your all wet."
"Yeah I kinda slipped in Milly's uhhhhh….puddle." He said looking away.
"Eww! Why didn't you take a shower? Or at least change close." Wolfwood said scooting away from him.
"I was going to!" Vash said irritated.
"Ewww! You fell into Milly's water and didn't change? Gross!" Meryl said giving Vash a disgusted look.
"Ya know what?" Vash stood up and threw off his red coat. "There! Is that better?"
Meryl and Wolfwood looked at each other and shrugged their shoulders. "Sure." Meryl said casually.
Vash sat back down poutingly. He noticed Wolfwood looking towards the delivery room doors, nervously. "Don't worry, I'm sure she's fine." He said in a comforting tone. Wolfwood didn't respond.
Two hours later
"Hey Vash." Wolfwood said in a bored voice.
"Yeah?"
"Want a hurts doughnut?"
"Yeah!"
Wolfwood punches Vash in the arm. "Hurts don't it?"
"Ow! That's not very nice." He said rubbing his arm.
"Knock it off you two." Meryl said sounding like she was also bored.
The Doctor walked in from the delivery room. "Mr. Wolfwood?" He asked.
"Yes!" Wolfwood said leaping up from his seat.
"You may see her now." He said leading him into the room.
"Is she ok?" He asked with a concern tone.
"Oh she's fine considering what she went through."
Wolfwood walked into the room to see Milly holding a small baby in her arms. The very sight of it brought a tear to his eye.
"Hey big girl how are ya?" He asked in a quiet voice.
"I'm fine. Say hello to your new baby daughter." She said happily holding up the little baby.
He smiled as he stood next to looking at the baby. "Hey there-Uhh, what's her name?"
"Katie." She said smiling at the baby.
"I like that name. Hey there Katie." He said also smiling at the baby.
"I'm having trouble though." She said changing her tone a little.
"With what?" He asked in a concerned tone.
"Well I don't know what to name the others." She said sounding a little sad.
"Wha-'The others'?" He asked giving her a puzzled look.
"Yes the other five. Oh, I guess I forgot to mention, we had sextuplets!" She said pointing to the five little beds, in each one was a little baby asleep. She began to laugh a little. "I mean, What are the chances of that?"
Wolfwood just stood there for a moment, staring at all the little babies.
"Honey? Are you ok?" She asked.
He passed out. Just then Vash and Meryl walked in the room. Vash looked at the fainted Wolfwood.
"What happened to him?" He asked looking at Milly.
"He's just a little overwhelmed that we had sextuplets." She said casually.
"What?" Meryl and Vash exclaimed at the same time.
Vash passed out right next to Wolfwood.
Meryl and Milly just looked at them then started talking as though nothing happened.
"So what are you going to name them all?" Meryl asked.
"Well this is Katie." She said showing Katie to Meryl.
"Awww! She's beautiful." Meryl said leaning over Milly. "….May I?"
"Of course." She said handing Katie over to Meryl. "I still don't know what to name the others." Milly said a little disappointed.
"I'm sure you'll think of something…Are they all girls?"
"Nope, three girls and three boys."
"Wow!"
"Ugh! What happened?" Wolfwood said in a groggy voice.
"You passed out when I told you that we had sextuplets." Milly said casually.
"Huh? Oh yeah." He said standing up. He looked down at Vash who was still passed out. He looked at a cold glass of water that was sitting on the table next to Milly. "May I?" He asked looking at Milly.
"Of course." She said with a innocent smile.
He grabbed the cold glass of water and splashed it on Vash's face.
"Doughnuts!" Vash screamed as he woke up.
"Quiet needle noggin! You'll wake up the babies!" Wolfwood said in a hushing voice.
"Oh yeah, sorry." He said standing up. "How many did you say you had?"
"Sextuplets…meaning six." Wolfwood said quietly.
"Yup, that's right." Milly said smiling.
"Wow, you must've knocked her up pretty good." Vash said whispering in Wolfwood's ear.
"Shut-up needle noggin!" He said punching Vash in the back of the head.
"Ow! Jeeze! I'm gonna have a brain tumor by the end of the day. First I fall backwards off my chair, then Meryl hits me, then I slipped in Milly's Uhhhhh…What ever, Then I passed out, and now you're hitting me too!" Vash said rubbing the back of his head.
"Oh quit yer bitchin'. You deserved it all." Wolfwood grumbled. He walked over to where all the babies were sleeping. He looked at them all and smiled. The girls had little pink beanies on there heads and the boys had blue.
Meryl walked over to Wolfwood and handed Katie to him. He looked down at Katie. She looked up at him and smiled. His eyes began to water a little as he smiled back.
"I promised myself I wouldn't cry." Vash said weeping a little. Then he hugged Meryl and began to sob.
Wolfwood looked at the other babies in their beds, asleep, and smiled. "Welcome to Gunsmoke." He said softly. His smile weakened as he thought to himself "Your worst nightmare."
End of chapter two
Well that's chapter 2! I hope you liked it. Yeah I know it was kinda short and rushed and I apologize…The reason I made Milly have sextuplets is, well I was bored and in the show there were a couple of jokes about sextuplets between Milly and Wolfwood so I thought 'Ah what the heck, Why not?' I mean this is The possibilities are limitless! Muhahahaha! Ok well anyways, reviews please.
