Chapter 42

Inside Alexis's Hospital Room (Bathroom)

Alicia knocked on the bathroom door and entered. She stopped in shock as she looked at her boyfriend's mother.

"Mrs. Corinthos you look gorgeous."

Alicia was in shock at the beauty of the woman sitting before her even nine months pregnant and in labor. Her hair was pulled into a delicate upsweep held tight with an elegant, pearl barrette with loose, spiral curls falling gingerly around her face. The dress that had chosen was simple in its elegance but classy in its look. It was a strapless, georgette ivory fabric, maternity wedding dress with a flowing A-line skirt and antiqued crystal sparkling droplets hanging over the waist of Alexis. The style and elegance that Alexis brought to the dress was incomparable. Alexis smiled beatifically at her and then her smile turned to a grimace as a labor pain gripped her.

Her sister hovered over her protectively and started to babble, "See Alexis. I knew you should've worn the Mediterranean birthing dress. The aura of that dress would've helped you through these labor pains now, plus you could've worn it into the delivery room as good luck."

Alexis glared at her sister in silence and said "Go tell Zander and Jason that I'm ready whenever they are."

Kristina threw up her hands in defeat and walked out of the room.

Alicia gripped Alexis's hand until the contraction passed and then said, "Mrs. Corinthos I have to ask. What is a Mediterranean birthing dress?"

Inside Alexis's Hospital Room

Kristina came out of the bathroom grumbling but then her face lifted at the sight of the shaman priest. She walked over to him and greeted him with a kiss. Sonny rolled his eyes and turned to Jason "How did she convince Alexis to let this guy be here?"

Jason shrugged and said, "It must be the labor pains. Remind me to tell you about the dress and the shaman priest."

Sonny looked at him in confusion as Alicia rolled Alexis out of the bathroom. Sonny felt the breath leave his body as Jason patted him on the shoulder in understanding. There were no words to describe how beautiful Alexis looked. She positively glowed with his children nestled inside of her, not to mention looked sexy as hell in that wedding dress. Sonny looked over and noted that he wasn't the only man admiring his wife, he could handle Jason and Zander admiring but the doctor admiring his bride to be was not welcome. He looked at him and cleared his throat. The doctor met his eyes and shook his head and left the room.

He crossed the room over to Alexis and bent down in front of her wheelchair and with a shaky voice spoke softly, "God, you take my breath away." Alexis smiled gently at him and leaned forward and planted a gentle kiss on his lips.

Alexis took that moment to notice her family and friends around the room. Zander was leaning against the wall with his arms wrapped loosely around her sister who looked radiant. Her sons were standing next to their fathers in their tuxes as well as Jason. She then looked upon her daughter who looked like a mini-replica of herself. She felt the tears spring to her eyes as the love in her heart swelled for these members of her family. The room was filled with gardenias, tulips, and roses.

She gripped Sonny's hand and said, "Our family really loves us don't they?" Sonny nodded in agreement and helped her in front of the priest. The priest started his sermon, as the ceremony got under way.

"We are gathered here today to celebrate one of life's greatest moments, to give recognition to the worth and beauty of love, and to add our best wishes to the words which shall unite Alexis and Sonny in marriage."

The priest tried to continue but was stopped by Sonny clearing his throat. "Reunite Father, we were married once before."

The priest looked over at Jason in shock and Jason shrugged his shoulders and said plainly, "His dead wife came back from the dead and had the first marriage annulled."

The priest gasped in shock and the shaman priest stepped forward and said, "I would like to say a few words."

Sonny gripped Alexis's hand in fear but she squeezed right back and said, "I want as many people and priests as it take for us to be married, forever this time."

She looked on as the priest began "Marriage is a supreme sharing of experience, and an adventure in the most intimate of human relationships. It is the joyous union of two people whose comradeship and mutual understanding have flowered in romance. Today as so much as Sonny and Alexis has proclaimed their love and commitment to the world, and we gather here to rejoice, with and for them, in the new life they now undertake together."

Alexis smiled at her sister as she listened to the priest describe their love. Maybe having a shaman priest here wasn't so much a bad idea.

The priest continued "Who gives this woman to this man?"

Alexis looked around the room as her three children spoke up, "We do sir."

The priest nodded and said "And you are?"

Michael, Morgan, and Kristina smiled and said, "We are her children, although not by birth but by love. Biologically we are his children we'll all except for me who is an orphan sort of…. Well I could try to explain but then we would be here forever."

The priest shook his head and turned to Jason and said "What else do I need to know about these two before I continue the ceremony?"

The shaman priest stepped forward again and cleared his throat and said, "I'll continue if my fellow brother has a problem continuing."

Jason looked at the priest he bought in disgust. How it was possible that some kook off the street that Kristina had brought was making more sense than the guy he had threatened and with a gun nevertheless was beyond him?

He took the priest, by the shoulders and said, "We need to talk father."

The shaman priest smiled at him softly and said "So what do we mean by love? When we love, we see things other people do not see. We see beneath the surface, to the qualities, which make our beloved special and unique. To see with loving eyes, is to know inner beauty. And to beloved is to be seen, and known, as we are known to no other. One, who loves us, gives us a unique gift: a piece of ourselves, but a piece that only they could give us."

Sonny nodded in agreement and smiled as the shaman priest continued, "To make this relationship work, therefore, takes more than love. It takes trust, to know in your hearts that you want only the best for each other. It takes dedication, to stay open to one another, to learn and grow, even when it is difficult to do so. And it takes faith, to go forward together without knowing what the future holds for you both. While love is our natural state of being, these other qualities are not as easy to come by. They are not a destination, but a journey. The true art of married life is in this an inner spiritual journey. It is a mutual enrichment, a give and take between two personalities, a mingling of two endowments which diminishes neither, but enhances both."

30 Minutes Later Outside of Alexis's Hospital Room

"Okay, so was that the weirdest wedding you have ever been too?"

Kristina giggled with Alicia and said "Okay, it was definitely interesting, especially after your Uncle threw the other priest out of the room."

Kristina nodded in agreement and said "That was funny. For awhile you could hear the priest yelling at Jason about how immoral my parents were and then Uncle Jason threatened the priest with defrocking him if he made anymore noise. Anyway on a better note, Dad had me messenger the final wedding decree papers over to Ric to file with at the courthouse. I must admit though, the shaman priest was pretty cool. It wasn't a traditional ceremony but then again neither are my parents. Props go to my Aunt Kristina for pulling off that one."

Alicia smiled nodding and said "The only thing I thought was hilarious was when your mom said no when the priest asked if she would take this man!"

Michael came up behind the two of them and said, "What are you guys laughing about?"

Alicia leaned back into his arms as he wrapped his arms around her waist. She giggled softly and said "We were just laughing at your Mom saying no when the priests asked if she would take this man. Who knew that the contraction hit at that moment, and the last thing on her mind was marrying your father."

Chapter 43

Inside Alexis's Hospital Room

"Sonny I hate you."

Sonny kissed Alexis on the forehead gently and said "You just remarried me, you can't hate me remember? Didn't you hear everything that the shaman priest said about love, faith, trust and dedication?"

Alexis rolled her eyes and grabbed his tuxedo tie and pulled him down to her level "I'm 9 months pregnant with twins and you have the nerve to marry me! With a shaman priest nonetheless."

Sonny laughed and said, "But sweetheart, the rush wedding was your idea. As for the shaman priest, I hate to remind you but also your idea."

Alexis leaned back and exhaled softly as the contraction ebbed away. She grabbed his hand and said, "You know I was just kidding right? I wouldn't trade being with your or our family as we renewed our vows for anything. As long as the shaman priest had the power to legally sign off on our marriage then I'm not worried who married us."

Sonny kissed her softly and said, "Of course I know that sweetheart."

Morgan cleared his throat and said "Look you guys, you already have 3 of us to deal with and 2 more on the way, and you don't need anymore so cut it out."

Alexis looked at her son and said, "You are right Morgan, Sonny, go away. Morgan, you can come hold your mother's hand."

Morgan shook his head and eased out of the hospital room saying, "Uh-Uh. That's Dad's department."

"So Mrs. Corinthos, are you ready to have these children?"

Alexis nodded as another pain gripped her. Dr. Meadows bent down and looked between Alexis's legs.

"Okay so you are definitely pushing an envelope here Mrs. Corinthos. You are now fully dilated and ready to go. Are you trying to set a record at General Hospital for fastest recovery & delivery on earth?"

Alexis smiled and hung on to Sonny and said "So, are you ready to bring our latest creations into this world?"

Sonny leaned over and kissed her breathless "I'm ready to do anything with you as long you are by my side."

Sonny and Alexis Home

Alicia walked in the house with Morgan, Michael, and Kristina.

She turned to them and said "Okay guys, we have to get this house clean. Your mother and the twins are going to be coming home shortly. The last thing they should have to wonder about is if they are coming home to a pigsty."

Kristina nodded in agreement and started to pick up items while Alicia looked expectantly at Michael and Morgan with her arms on her hips. They both grumbled and started to help cleaning and after some arguing, they decided to take the upstairs.

When they got to their rooms, Morgan stopped outside his door and said, "Hey Michael. When did you get such a bossy girlfriend?"

Michael rolled his eyes, "She's been talking to Mom. I'm lucky she hasn't done worse yet."

Outside Alexis Hospital Room

Kristina grinned and the idea of her new nephews or nieces that were coming into the world. She turned to Zander in excitement and said, "Can you believe it? A wedding and a birth in the same day! Alexis's aura is lighting up all over the place."

Zander nodded and pulled her close and kissed her on the top of her head, "We are just lucky that she woke up from the coma. We didn't have to worry about brain damage or amnesia or anything else that could've happened with her in the hospital."

Kristina nodded and said "She had love on her side; nothing could go wrong in her case. We have lived through too much not to have some sort of joy somewhere."

Inside Alexis Hospital Room

"Push Alexis,"

Alexis looked at him and rolled her eyes, "Why don't you push damn it?"

Sonny squeezed her hand and said "I would go through with this for you if I could, you know that."

Alexis nodded and started to bear down and push. The exhaustion of the moment left her weak and breathless. She leaned back into Sonny's arms weary and exhausted.

The doctor looked at Alexis's vital signs on the machine fearfully and said, "Sonny, I need you to leave the room."

Sonny shook his head in negation "Whatever it is, you can tell me."

Dr. Meadows swore softly and said, "I'm sorry Sonny but I'm not pleased with the vital signs on Alexis. If this continues, we could lose your wife and the children. This is getting to be too much for her physically; we are going to have to perform a caesarean section if we want to save your children and your wife."
