Ryan lets go of Marissa's hand and rushes across the room, "Doctor is she okay?" he asks as the nurses fuss over the small baby who wasn't crying, or moving for that matter, "What's going on? What's wrong with her?"
Thoughts racing through her mind, Marissa sits up on the bed anxiously as she prays to hear a loud cry from her new baby girl. The next few minutes seemed to drag by slowly and the silence of the room was almost deafening. Please, let her be okay. God, let her be okay.
Suddenly, another cry fills the room and relief flows through Ryan's body, "She's okay, the umbilical cord was around her neck." Dr. Davis explains, "And she seems to be the smaller one, so it was a lot for her to come out breach."
"Is she okay?" Ryan hears Marissa's tearful voice. He turns around and sees the three women watching expectantly.
"Yeah, she's fine." Ryan replies walking back to the bed, clutching his chest with one hand. Marissa lies back in bed, and lets out a breath she didn't even know she was holding. "You did awesome, Riss." Ryan says softly, planting a soft kiss on her forehead.
"How you feeling, Coop?" Summer asks, still holding Marissa's hand.
Marissa lets out a small sigh, and smiles, "I'm tired." She replies as she looks over at the nurses and doctors fussing over her two babies. "Can I hold them?" Marissa asks eagerly.
"Of course." One of the nurses hands Marissa one of the babies and whispers, "This is Baby boy Atwood."
Another nurse hands Ryan his new daughter and he stares down at her in awe, not believing he took part in making such a beautiful being. The baby's eyes begin to slowly open, and the sight takes Ryan's breath away as he sees two beautiful crystal blue eyes.
"They're perfect." Kirsten says softly, as she, Julie and Summer watched the new parents hold their new babies. 20 perfect fingers, 20 perfect toes, two noses that Kirsten immediately noticed as Ryan's and, without a doubt, the babies inherited Marissa's rosy pink lips.
Marissa rocks the baby gently and plants a soft kiss on his forehead, "Hey, handsome." She whispers gently as tears of joy begins to brim her eyes, the baby's face was almost an exact replica of her husband's. "I'm gunna love you so much, that no woman is ever gunna be good enough for you."
Marissa looks up at Ryan and can see pure joy in his eyes. Ryan catches a glimpse of Marissa watching him and he bends down gently as he plants a soft passionate kiss on Marissa's lips, "I love you," he whispers gently, "so much."
Marissa smiles sweetly at him, "I love you too." She says softly. "You ready to trade?" she asks. Ryan nods as they trade carefully.
"She's perfect." Marissa whispers, with a smile on her face, "Hi, sweetheart…thanks for coming out of me."
Ryan lets out a small laugh as he rocks his new son back and forth gently, "Hey, kiddo…" he says softly, "You have an older brother waiting to play with you at home."
"Right, I'm gunna call the boys. Let them know the new babies are here." Kirsten says, before walking out of the room.
"Can I hold them?" Summer asks excitedly.
"Both of them?" Marissa asks with a small laugh.
"I'll sit." Summer says confidently as she takes a seat on one of the armchairs. The couple nods their heads and hands Summer the twins, "Aww, they're so perfect you guys!" she says softly, "I'm your Aunt Summer…and I will always have candy."
"Okay, my turn, my turn." Julie says, walking over to Summer, "I'll hold one, for now. It's been a while." She says with a laugh as Summer hands her the baby boy.
"Okay, they're on they're way." Kirsten announces, walking back into the room, "Oh, can I hold one?" she asks before Summer hands her the other baby.
Ryan puts an arm round Marissa and plants a kiss on the side of her head, "Thanks." He whispers in her ear. She looks at him confusingly and Ryan smiles, "For loving me, for giving me two beautiful children, for talking me into taking Jaiden in…for everything." He says gently.
Marissa smiles and kisses him softly on the lips, "It was my pleasure." She utters.
