Part: 12 of 18
AN: Yes Mia went on the shots just yesterday.
It had been two days since the guys had found out that Dom had two children and one grand child. It was still a little much for Jess to wrap his head around but he was getting there. Since Dom had only seen his grandson once he decided that if Liz was up to traveling he'd come pick her, the baby, Roberto and Sarah up New Years Eve so they could all be together.
December 31st
"Hey Dom when are you going to pick Liz up," Mia asked coming up from the basement and going to the sink to wash her hands. She'd just straightened up the guys' area while the guys were cleaning the bathrooms and doing the dusting since the chemicals made her feel light headed and sick.
"I'm leaving about five since they're going to have supper with us," Dom said.
"Ok," Mia said.
"Ok I can officially say that we have way too many bathrooms in this house," Jess said coming down stairs.
"We don't have that many for as many people who live in this house," Mia said.
"We have four bathrooms," Jess exclaimed.
"Jess there's seven of us living here and only four bathrooms," Mia said.
"Still too many," Jess said.
"You're hopeless Jess," Mia said smiling.
"Mia can you come give me a hand," Letty asked.
"Sure what do you need," Mia asked coming over to the stove.
"Can you wash and cut the vegs then the fruit and cheese," Letty asked.
"Sure," Mia said getting to work.
"Ok we're done with the chores so in less you have anything else for us to do then we'll be working on my car for tomorrow's race," Vince said coming up the stairs.
"No and thanks for doing them guys," Letty said.
"Welcome," Vince said and then disappeared.
"Anything I can help with," Brian asked coming up behind Mia.
"Yeah wash your hands and then cut the rest of these vegs while I cut the fruit," Mia said.
"Ok," Brian said going over to the sink to wash his hands.
After a couple of minutes Mia finally caught onto what Brian was doing which was cut a couple of carrots and then eat one cut a few more then eat one.
"Stop that Brian. God you're getting as bad as Jess is," Mia said slapping Brian's hand and laughing a little bit.
"No Dom's worse then Brian. Dom don't you dare try to take one of those celery sticks," Letty said with her back to Dom.
"I'm not," Dom lied trying to set it down before Letty turned around.
"You are such a bad liar," Letty said turning around and seeing Dom try to put it back.
"She got you man," Brian said chuckling a little bit.
"I always do. He tries to get away with it but most of the time I see him before he can do it. I don't even want to know how bad our kids are going to be at trying that," Letty said.
"You mean someday right," Dom asked.
"Of course," Letty said turning back to the stove so Dom wouldn't see the look in her eyes.
"Hate to bail on you but most be going," Dom said.
"See you," Letty said turning back around to give Dom a kiss good-bye.
"See you in a bit," Dom said kissing Letty.
"Bye," Brian and Mia said when Dom was on his way out of the house.
"Once you two are done then you can go get cleaned up or whatever. Thanks for the help," Letty said.
"Welcome. Where do you want it," Mia asked.
"Just set it in the frig," Letty said.
"Ok," Mia said and did just that.
After she and Brian were done then they went back to Mia's room to get dressed and just hang out.
Dom was just about to Sarah's office where he was going to meet them. Once he arrived he went to the back door where Sarah was waiting to let him in.
"Hey how's Roberto," Dom asked coming inside.
"He's good. Liz is just in my office feeding him and then we'll be ready to go," Sarah said.
"Ok," Dom said.
They didn't have long to wait before Liz was ready to go.
"Ok I'm ready," Liz said.
"Ok," Sarah said.
"Hi hun how are you doing today," Dom asked coming over to his daughter and giving her a kiss.
"I'm doing good. How's Mia," Liz asked.
"She and the babies are doing good. I don't know if your mom told you or not but I did tell the guys about you," Dom said.
"Did you tell them everything," Liz asked.
"Yeah except about you being married," Dom said.
"Oh ok," Liz said.
"Ok we ready now," Sarah asked coming back from locking her office door up.
"Yeah," Dom, Liz and Roberto said.
"Ok then," Sarah said and with that they all left the office.
The drive to the house seemed to take forever to Dom. No one said much of anything on the ride over. Each person was left to their own thoughts or as with Roberto Jr. he was sleeping in his car seat.
"Well we're here," Dom said pulling into the driveway.
"Wow when mom said big I wasn't thinking this big," Liz said getting out of the car while Roberto got Roberto Jr. out of the car.
"It's not as big as it looks on the outside," Dom said coming around the car to open Sarah's door.
"Thank you," Sarah said stepping out of the car.
"No problem," Dom said.
"Dad…dad," Liz asked trying to get Dom's attention.
"Yeah," Dom asked snapping back to attention.
"Are we going to go in or just stand here," Liz asked.
"Yeah we'll go in. Sorry just spaced out there for a minute," Dom said.
"That's fine," Liz said.
"Watch your step as you come into the garage. Looks like the guys are working again," Dom said.
"What they working on," Roberto asked trying to seem interested in his father in-law's work.
"The race cars and the guys have something special in the works," Dom said.
"So what are they working on," Liz asked.
"You'll see tonight," Dom said.
"Ok," Liz said seeing that they were almost to the house.
"Ok here we are," Dom said opening the door.
"I thought I heard you in the garage," Letty said coming up to Dom and giving him a kiss.
"Yeah you did. Liz Roberto I'd like you to meet Letty," Dom said.
"Nice to meet you," Liz said sticking her hand out.
"Like wise," Letty said shaking Liz's hand.
"Ma'ma," Roberto said tipping his head towards Letty.
"You must be Roberto and this must be Roberto Jr.," Letty said.
"Yes this is our son," Liz said.
"If you want you can put his car seat in the living room," Dom said.
"Ok," Liz said.
"Hey Dom on your way back can you go tell everyone that it's ready," Letty asked.
"Sure," Dom said.
"Thanks," Letty said.
"No problem. If you follow me I'll show you to the living room," Dom said talking to Liz and Roberto.
"Is there anything I can help you with Letty," Sarah asked.
"No I've got everything that needs to go on the table. Let's go take our seats," Letty said leaving the kitchen.
"Ok," Sarah said following Letty.
Meanwhile in the living room Dom was catching up with Liz. He hadn't seen her since the birth of his grandson which only had been a week ago. Before then the last time he'd seen her was at her wedding. It wasn't that he was ignoring her he was just busy. And he had a lot of things on his mind during that time. Besides they didn't get married until she was about six months pregnant. Liz wasn't mad at Dom for not coming around because she knew that things were hard right then.
As soon as everyone got into the dinning room then Dom said prayer and they ate. The guys mostly just asked Liz about her life as a kid. They found out that Dom was a pretty tough father when it came to some things but he was also laid back when it came to other things. They found out that she was only 19 which surprised them since Roberto was 23. They also found out that Liz and Roberto were married.
"So is that why you really left the month before we were to pull the heist," Leon asked.
"Yeah but I got the shock of my life when I got here," Dom said remembering.
Dom had just gotten to Sarah's house where he was going to be staying until the wedding which was tomorrow. After the wedding Dom would fly out late that night.
"Hey how was the flight," Sarah asked coming to the door.
"It was good. Where's Liz," Dom asked.
"She's in her room," Sarah said.
"Down the hall and to the left," Dom asked remembering Liz saying something about it in a letter awhile ago.
"Yeah but there's something I need to tell you before you see her," Sarah said as Dom was walking to her room.
Dom who just figured that it was something about the wedding that Sarah wanted to talk about didn't stop to see what it was. When he got to Liz's room he got the shock of his life when he saw that his baby girl was pregnant.
"Dad…dad…dad," Liz said trying to get Dom's attention.
"What," Dom said finally snapping out of his daydream.
"Remembering when you found out I was pregnant," Liz asked.
"Yeah," Dom said.
"Well don't worry because the team can see your reaction when they watch my wedding video sometime," Liz said.
"Great," Dom said dropping because he knew there was no point in arguing with his daughter.
Half way through the meal Dom and Brian got the same idea which was to propose to their girlfriends. When they both saw that the other was about to get on one knee the other stopped.
"Go ahead Brian," Dom said.
"No you can go ahead," Brian said.
"No I insist," Dom said.
"That's alright you're older so you can go ahead," Brian said.
"Would one of you just bloody go," Jess asked surprising everyone.
"Fine," Brian and Dom said at once.
So they both got on one knee and proposed. Liz didn't get to hear Dom ask Letty because at that time Roberto jr. decided that he'd wake up.
"Mia I know I've asked you this already but will you marry me," Brian asked opening up the box that had the ring in it.
"Yes," Mia said hugging and kissing Brian.
"Letty baby will you marry me," Dom asked.
"No," Letty said.
"Letty…wait what," Dom asked surprised that she'd turned him down.
"You don't want to marry me Dominic," Letty said.
"And why is that," Dom asked forgetting that there were people watching.
"Because I haven't been honest with you," Letty said tears forming in her eyes.
"What haven't you been honest about," Dom asked still on one knee.
"I'm" Letty started to say before she was cut off by a scream from Mia.
"Mia what's wrong," Dom asked turning to in time to see his sister clutching her stomach.
"I think…I…I…I'm…in…lab…lab…labor," Mia exclaimed.
"Get her to her bedroom," Sarah said.
"Ok," Brian said shocked that it was happening now.
So Brian and Dom helped Mia to her bedroom which took a while since they had to keep stopping because she was having contractions.
"Dom go get the car," Sarah ordered.
"Ok," Dom said leaving to go get the car.
"Mia I want to check you to see how far along you are," Sarah said.
"Ok," Mia said lying on the bed.
So while Brian was talking to Mia Sarah was checking her.
"Mia how long have you been having the pains," Brian asked holding Mia's hand.
"Since I woke up this morning. I didn't want to say anything because I didn't want to ruin tonight," Mia said.
"You wouldn't have ruined the night. You should have said something to me or Dom," Brian said.
"I'm sorry," Mia said starting to cry.
"Hey it's alright," Brian said kissing her forehead.
"You're two centimeters along," Sarah said smiling from the end of the bed.
"So that's good," Brian asked while Mia was pulling her pants back up.
"Yeah it means that we have time to get her to the hospital," Sarah said.
"Ok so what now," Brian asked.
"Help me help Mia off the bed and we'll get her down stairs and to the hospital," Sarah said.
"Ok," Brian said getting up from the floor where he was kneeling by Mia.
Before Sarah could get to the other end of the bed to help Mia up Dom came rushing in.
"What's going on," Dom asked about ready to loose it.
"Sorry I was just checking her to make sure that we had time to get her to the hospital and we do," Sarah said seeing the look on Dom's face.
"Oh ok," Dom said coming over to Mia to help her off the bed.
After Dom and Brian got Mia off the bed they headed for the car. What Brian and Mia didn't notice was there was no one in the house. They had all left to head to the hospital so they could be there once Mia got there.
After they got Mia into the car which took awhile since they were using Dom's car which only had two doors they were off. Brian who was in the back was trying to keep Mia calm and help her breath during the contractions. Dom who was driving almost got them into a wreck halfway there because every time Mia screamed he looked over to the passenger seat to make sure she was alright.
"I can't take this anymore," Mia screamed when she felt a great pressure release.
"What just happened," Dom asked looking scared out of his mind.
"Don't worry that was just her water breaking. Just concentrate on the road. Don't worry Mia we're almost there," Sarah said from the back seat.
"Breath Mia," Brian said.
"You try breathing when it feels like all the air is getting suck out of you," Mia said through gritted teeth.
"She told you," Dom said chuckling at Bran.
"I don't know what you find so funny. You'll be going through this first hand in about seven months," Mia said.
Before Dom or Brian could ask what she was talking about they arrived at the hospital. Sarah had told Liz to get Ted and have him be waiting at the hospital with a wheelchair for when they got there. Once Dom parked in front of the doors he got out of the car.
"Here let me help you," Dom said rushing to the other side of the car where Vince was already waiting for him.
"Thanks," Mia said taking his and Vince's hand.
Jess, Vince, Leon, Letty, Liz, Roberto and Roberto Jr. had all come ahead to warn the hospital that Sarah was coming.
Dom and Vince found out that it was a mistake to give Mia their hand because not two seconds after they grabbed her hands she was squeezing the daylights out of theirs.
"Now you see how I felt," Brian said getting out of the car.
"Yeah," Vince said rubbing his hand.
"I heard that," Mia shouted back at them.
"Come on guys no time to waste," Sarah said up ahead of them.
"Ok," Brian said running to get along side the wheelchair holding Mia's hand and getting it squeezed to death.
Once they finally got Mia inside they got her to the room where the twins would be born. After Mia changed into a hospital gown she got onto the bed where Sarah hooked her up to monitors.
"Lay back Mia and I'll see how far along you are," Sarah said.
"Ok," Mia said leaning back with the help of Brian and Dom who was still in the room.
"Good news you're about six cementer dilated," Sarah said.
"This is going to be a long night," Mia said feeling another contraction hit.
"Remember breath," Brian whispered into Mia's ear.
"You say that one more time and I'll give you something to breath about," Mia said through clinched teeth.
After the contraction finally let up Dom took the chance to talk to Mia.
"What did you mean that I'll be going through this in seven months," Dom asked.
"She's talking about the fact that I'm pregnant with your child," Letty said coming into the room.
"What? You are? Is that why you couldn't marry me," Dom asked.
"Yeah I didn't think you'd want to marry me," Letty said starting to cry.
"Why not baby," Dom asked coming over to Letty.
"I hate to interrupt your little thing but leave," Mia said feeling another contraction coming on.
So with that they stepped outside the door.
"I thought that you didn't want more kids," Letty said.
"At this age I wasn't planning on having any more kids but I didn't say I didn't want them. I want them if you want them," Dom said hugging Letty.
"I want them," Letty said.
"Then we're having this one," Dom said putting his hand on Letty's stomach.
"Congratulations dad," Liz said coming up to her dad and hugging him and then Letty.
"You'll never change will you," Dom asked smirking at Liz.
"Not as long as I live. Beside I wasn't meaning to ease drop I was coming to see how Mia was," Liz said.
"She's doing good as far as I can tell. We just got kicked out of the room. Your mom says she's six centimeters along," Dom said.
"Well she still has a ways to go," Liz said.
"Yeah so if I were you guys I'd just go to the lobby and hang out," Sarah said coming out of the room.
"Mia doesn't want to see anyone," Dom asked looking hurt.
"At this point she's about to kick Brian out of the room, so no to any other visitors," Sarah said.
"Ok," Dom said and left with Letty and Liz.
As the hours went on Mia was able to get up and walk around the hospital a little to get the labor moving. About two hours after they got there she'd gotten so sick of Brian that now Letty was walking with her down the halls.
By time ten that night came around Mia had the whole team including Liz who was holding Roberto Jr., Sarah and Roberto walking with her down the halls. She'd finally forgive Brian after she had a really nasty contraction.
"Mia why don't we go back to your room so I can check you," Sarah asked.
"Sure," Mia said and with that they all made their way back to her room.
Once there everyone except Brian and Sarah were kicked out by Mia.
"Congratulations you're ten centimeters dilated," Sarah said with a big grin on her face.
"So can I start pushing," Mia asked hopefully.
"On the next contract yes you can," Sarah said.
Mia didn't have long to wait because she felt it happening as Sarah was saying it.
"Ok Mia I want you to take your hands and bring them around the back of your legs bring them to your chest. Now bear down and Brian will count for you," Sarah said helping Mia get into position.
"Ok push," Sarah exclaimed.
So Brian counted and Mia pushed and then took a deep breath after words. That's the way it went for the next hour until twin number one decided to finally come.
"Ok Mia you can stop pushing now I can see the head," Sarah said.
"Just get it out," Mia said tired and ready for this to be over with already since it was eleven.
"Ok on the next contraction I want you to push but not as hard," Sarah said.
"Ok," Mia said and started pushing again.
"Ok you can stop now she's out," Sarah exclaimed.
"What we have a daughter," Brian asked dumb founded.
"Yes a healthy beautiful baby girl," Sarah said.
"Mia did you hear that," Brian asked kissing Mia's face.
"I might be in labor but I'm not death. Can I see her," Mia asked.
"Brian do you want to cut the cord before I hand her off to the nurse. Here you go," Sarah said holding up the squirming baby.
"Sure," Brian said going over to see his baby girl.
"Just cut right here," Sarah said helping Brian.
After Brian did that then Sarah handed the baby off to a team that was waiting for the baby. They had two teams waiting just because they didn't know what to expect with them being about a month early.
"Ok Mia get ready to meet your other child," Sarah said getting ready again.
"No I can't do this," Mia said.
"Yes you can Mia. You're the strongest girl I've ever known," Brian said kissing Mia's forehead.
"I can't," Mia said.
"Yes you can baby. Look I'll get you ice cream after this is all over with," Brian said.
"Fine but it better be a carton of ice cream," Mia said getting ready again.
"What ever you want," Brian said smiling.
"Good," Mia said before she started pushing again.
About thirty minutes of pushing more and their son was joining the world.
"It's a boy," Sarah exclaimed.
"Can I see him," Mia asked.
"Sure let's just get him and you cleaned up and then you can see them both," Sarah said.
"Brian did you hear that we have a son and daughter," Mia said.
"Yeah I know isn't it great," Brian asked.
"So what are you going to name them," Sarah asked from the end of the bed.
"We really haven't talked about it," Brian said.
"Actually I was thinking for a girl we'd name her Jamie Alexandria O'Connor and for our son we'd name him Brian Jordan O'Connor," Mia said.
"I like those names," Brian said.
"Good because I wasn't going to budge," Mia said
"And what if I didn't like the names," Brian asked.
"Then you would have just had to live with it," Mia said smiling at Brian.
"Hmm I see," Brian said smiling at Mia.
"Here is your son and daughter," Sarah said placing them both in Mia's arms.
"Look at them Brian. Can you believe that you helped make them," Mia asked.
"No I can't," Brian said with this look of total peace on his face.
"Hey there Brian. Hey Jamie," Mia said.
"They are so beautiful," Brian said.
"Yeah I know," Mia said looking at their children.
"Umm Brian," Mia more or less asked.
"Yeah," Brian asked not looking up from their children.
"You do realize that we don't have a place for them to stay don't you," Mia asked.
"Didn't think about that until now," Brian said.
"Oh well I guess we can deal with that latter since they weren't suppose to be for another month I figured we'd have time guess not," Mia said.
"No I guess not," Brian said taking their son out of Mia's arms.
So that's how it was for about an hour. Mia and Brian were getting to know their child and visa versa.
"Hey you guys up to some company," Dom asked pecking his head in about one the next morning.
"Sure," Mia said.
So with that Sarah, Liz who was still holding Roberto Jr. who was wide awake now, Roberto, Dom, Letty, Jess, Vince and Leon all can into the room at once.
"Hey guys sorry forgot you guys were here," Mia said.
"I know how that goes," Liz said.
"Hey you were right they could fit on the changing table together," Jess said.
"Hey what that for," Jess asked after Vince hit him upside the head.
"You weren't suppose to say anything," Vince said.
"Oh yeah," Jess said.
"They're so cute," Letty said.
"Thanks," Mia said.
"So what are my niece and nephew's names," Dom asked.
"Your niece's name is Jamie Alexandria O'Connor and your nephew's name is Brian Jordan O'Connor," Mia said.
"Those are nice," Jess said.
"Jess just keep your mouth shut from now on ok," Vince asked.
"Fine," Jess said.
"Hey Vince remember when you said you'd be willing to baby sit sometime? Still willing," Mia asked.
"Yeah they don't seem too hard to handle," Vince said.
"Just wait until they come home," Liz mumbled to herself.
"I don't mean to be the meany but you all need to go now," Sarah said.
"You heard her," Dom said seeing that Jess and Vince might start to protest.
"We'll see you guys in the morning," Dom said as everyone was leaving.
"Bye," everyone said on their way out.
"Bye," Mia and Brian said at once.
"See you in the morning," Dom said coming over to Mia and giving her a kiss on the forehead.
"Bye," Mia said returning the kiss.
"See you man," Dom said to Brian.
"Bye," Brian said and with that Dom left.
"Do you want me to take them to the nursery," Sarah asked.
"Yeah just for tonight," Mia said handing Brian their daughter.
"Ok. Night," Sarah said taking them from Brian.
"Night," Mia and Brian said at the same time.
"Night," Mia said to Brian after Sarah had left.
"Night," Brian said coming over and giving Mia a kiss.
And with that Brian turned out the lights and crashed on the chair by Mia's bed. They were both asleep as soon as their heads hit the pillow.
The next morning the team came back to see the twins again. Since Sarah, Liz, Roberto and their son were there too they took one big family pix. They just hung out and talked about how life was going to change now with two little ones in the house. The guys left saying that they had a car to finish up for the race that night.
Since Mia wasn't going to be released until the middle of next week because they wanted to keep an eye on the twins Dom, Vince, Brian, Leon and Jess all decided that two of them would stay with Mia and the twins at all times. They wanted to make sure that nothing happened and that Tom didn't try anything since he'd been quite for awhile now.
