!JAKE'S POV!

I can't believe it. Alyssa had twins. We should have seen this coming. I mean, most people know when they're going to have twins, right? Two of them. That's one more kid we have to take care than we expected to. I just can't believe it. Not even while I'm sitting here, watching Alyssa hold them. How were we going to pull this off? We both were planning on going back to school in the fall, just at different times in the day. It would've been easier just having one baby to take care of, but now we have 2. One boy and one girl. We didn't even have names prepared. We did end up naming, though. Alyssa's favorite names. I would go along with whatever she wanted. Rylee and Cayden were their names and they were absolutely beautiful and perfect. After a little while, the doctor came in and after checking everything, said we were free to go home. I drove us home and when we got inside Alyssa laid down Rylee and Cayden (who were sleeping) and fell asleep in our bed too. Not long after, they started crying. They cried a lot. Alyssa and I alternated them. As much as I love them, I kind of wish there was only one of them. We weren't paired for two. Heck, we weren't prepared for one. How are we going to get through this? After a few hours Alyssa and I were sitting on our bed across from their bassinets desperately, practically begging them to quiet down. We tried pretty much everything but nothing worked. Alyssa leaned her head on my shoulder "why won't they stop? I'm so exhausted." I don't know, honey. This is getting ridiculous, though. We could... call your Mom?" "But she's mad at us." "I know. But this is a desperate situation. We need her. I think your Mom would understand." she sighed. "I guess. But you do it. I don't feel like getting yelled at." "She won't yell at us..." hardly believing my own voice. I pick up the phone and dial the McCool household. It rang about two times. "Hello?" "Hi, Mrs. McCool?" "Yes, this is she." "Yeah, this is Jake." "Oh." "Um. Alyssa just had the babies yesterday." "Babies?" She emphasized the "s". "Yes. It's twins." "Oh." she said with interest. "And we were wondering if you could come stay with us for a few days. This is too much." "Uhh..." She thought about it for a few seconds. "Please? They won't stop crying and we need sleep." A few moments of silence. "I think I could arrange that." "Thank you so much!" "I'll come as soon as I can." I hang up the phone. "I told you she wouldn't yell at us." "No, she'll save it for when she gets here." "I think she's past the yelling. She'll just make us feel guilty." "True." There was a moment of silence. Alyssa lifted her head and turned to me and whispered to me, "Shh be very quiet and maybe they won't start again." Right as we turned to get in the bed, they started again. "We need a system," I say getting out of the bed.

!KEVIN'S POV!

I was so nervous. I spent like an hour just getting ready, but everything had to be absolutely perfect. Nothing could go wrong. I checked my pocket to make sure I still had the ring and headed over to pick up Audrey. Audrey came out of her dorm quickly after I knocked on the door. "Sorry, it's a mess in there. I didn't want you to see." I looked at Audrey up and down. "You look amazing." She smiled. "You don't look so bad yourself." We went down to my car and headed to one of the nicest restaurants in town. When we got there we were seated and my palms were sweating so badly. My nerves were really getting to me but I tried to hide it so Audrey couldn't tell. After ordering our food and eating it, I knew it was time for me to get down to business. "I'm so full," Audrey said, looking half miserable. "Remind to never eat again," she said, leaning back in her chair. "All right. I'll remember that." She said that every time we went out to eat. "Before we go, though, I need to ask you something." "Ok. Shoot." "Uhh..." I said looking around. My palms were sweating even more right about now. "What is it Kevin?" I looked at her. "Ok. I'm just going to do it." She looked a little confused. I got down on one knee. "Will you marry me?" Her eyes popped out of her head. "You weren't kidding were you?" "What?" "You really were going to make it up to me." I laugh. "So, is that a yes or no?" "How can I say no?" "So, that's a yes?" "Yes!" Right after, I got a call on my cell phone. "Hello?" "Kevin! Sarah's going into labor!" "Kyle?" "Yes!" Poor Kyle. He had to deal with two pregnant women in two days. "Ok, we'll be there shortly."

!SARAH'S POV!

We got into the car after Alyssa and Jake left the hospital. I wasn't feeling really slow, like I was about to explode. I was looking forward to getting rid of this belly and back into shape. Kyle pulled out of the parking lot and we were on the way home. We got stuck in traffic, though on the highway. Right then, I knew it was time. "Kyle. Turn around. Go back." "Why? What's wrong?" "It's time" His eyes grew wide and he sped back to the hospital. When we got there we got the same reception lady "weren't you in here yesterday?" "Yeah, with my best friend's wife. This time, it's my fiancé." "Ohhhh." She nodded. "So, can you help us?" Kyle asked impatiently. "Yes, I can. I need her information." He fumbled through her questions. He was so jittery and nervous. "All right. We can take you back now." "Finally!" Kyle yelled. Sometimes he was so embarrassing. "Kyle. Go out to the waiting room and call everyone." I said as they helped me into a wheel chair and started pushing me towards the room. "Ok. I can do that" Not long after, he came into the room they had me in. He still looked really jittery. "Kyle, just calm down. I can't be calm if you're not calm." "Ok, ok. I'm calm now." He said, taking a deep breath. "Somehow, I don't believe you." I take another deep breath. The real pain was starting to come. As soon as the doctor came in, he started freaking out even more. I grabbed his hand and looked at him "Kyle, calm down or get someone who is calm in here with you." "I'm sorry. I'm trying," he said, taking deep breaths again. I had to start pushing now. Kyle looked down to see what the doctor was doing. His face turned white and he slumped down to the floor. Right then, Audrey came running into the room and stepped over Kyle. "Just in time." "Hey, how are you doing?" she asked. I moaned in pain. "It's ok. Everything is going to be fine." "Is everyone else here?" "Yeah, they're right outside." "Good. Can you send Jake in please?" "Uhh. Sure." A minute later Jake came in and thankfully, was a lot calmer than Kyle. "Wow, this is my second time in the last 24 hours," he said smiling. I just pushed. A few hours later, Kyle and I had a new baby boy. I was actually relieved to have a boy. I wasn't ready to go through all that girl stuff quite yet. That's when I realized that Kyle and I weren't prepared for this baby at all. We named him Dylan. Everyone else came in afterwards and Audrey and Kevin had some big news for us. Kevin stood up. "Guys, we have something important to tell all of you." They looked at each other and Audrey said, "We're getting married!" I found this slightly predictable, but I was still happy for the couple. Things were finally becoming good.

!AUDREY'S POV!

"So, that's a yes?" "Yes!" This is what I had wanted for so long and it finally happened. I was happy that I wasn't expecting it either. It wouldn't have been any fun if it hadn't been a surprise. It couldn't have been anymore perfect, though. It seemed that Kevin was my soul mate. But what did I have to compare him to? Nothing. That's what I like about it. We received a call shortly after his proposal and Sarah was in labor. We arrived at the hospital, probably breaking some laws again. I ran into the back, where I found Sarah pushing and Kyle passed out on the floor. Although Kyle seems to be Mr. Cool is real life, when it comes to these sorts of situations, apparently he doesn't know how to handle them. Jake came back too and we both helped Sarah deliver her baby boy, Dylan. Afterwards, I felt like I needed to face Jake. I had been avoiding him too long and it's about time I grew up. "Jake? Can we talk?" "Oh yeah. Absolutely." We walked into the hall, outside of Sarah's room. "What's up?" "I just wanted to apologize. For you know, being so rude to you lately." "Don't worry about it. I understand. I knew you would get over it." "No, you didn't," I say, smiling at him. "Yeah... I did," he said smiling back at me and walking back into Sarah's room. That's all it took. One simple sentence that resolved everything. I wish I hadn't been so stupid before. I went back into the Sarah's room where they were passing around the baby. One day, Kevin and I would have one of our own.

!ALYSSA'S POV!

I was so exhausted when Jake and I got the call that Sarah was now in labor. I really didn't want to go back to that place, I had had my fair share of it the night before but it was my best friend so of course I had to. Jake drove us there and went into the room with Sarah while I stayed in the waiting room with Kevin because Audrey had gone back too. I couldn't since I had two babies to take care of. After a few hours, Jake and Audrey came out and said that she had had a boy and named him Dylan. Kevin and I went back with them and Audrey and Kevin announced they were getting married. Audrey showed me the ring and I looked at Jake. "So, that's where you were when I went into labor weren't you?" He smiled. "Yeah. Kevin needed help." After a while Jake and I decided that it was about time we get back home. We stayed up most of the night but finally fell asleep at around 4. I couldn't wait for my mom to come tomorrow. She'll know what to do.

!KYLE'S POV!

"Kyle. Turn around. Go back now," Sarah said. I knew something was wrong and I turned around. It was time for the baby. I started to panic, though. I'm usually a very calm person, but I'm not good with medical stuff at all. This was too much. First I was in charge of Alyssa and now I have to be in charge of Sarah. I was a little more freaked out, because with Alyssa, she and Jake had to take them home and take care of them. With Sarah, I had to help and I'm completely not prepared. After pretty much yelling at the receptionist, we went into the back. But after I saw was Sarah had to do, I blacked out and I don't remember much after that except for waking up to Audrey saying "Kyle! You have a new baby boy!" I got up slowly to see everyone gathered around Sarah and I went and sat next to her on the bed. She handed him to me. Sure he didn't look like me but that was to be expected. That didn't mean I love him any less though. He was perfect, of course. Now I was looking forward to this whole parenthood thing.
