The Next Morning

Raf woke up first watching Liv sleep in the morning light. He got up, started to make breakfast called Lucia to tell her they would be over later than planned to pick up Noah and Skylar. He made his way back into their bedroom, Liv had just got off the phone when he walked in.

"The doctor?" Raf asked.

"Yes, we have an appointment at 1 o'clock." Liv grinned.

Raf sat the tray of food down, kissing her forehead.

"I called Mami, and asked if she would keep the kids for a few extra hours."

"Did you say why?" Liv asked, grabbing his hand and leaned up kissing him.

"Nothing, just something with work came up and they needed us both."

Liv kissed him again, they ate, laid in bed for a little while snuggling, got ready and headed to the doctors.

At the doctor's

Raf and Liv sat in the doctor's office, Liv watched Raf while they sat there. He was looking at the floor, Liv ran her hand up and down his arm, picking up his left hand, kissing his black wedding band. He looked at her while she did this, grabbing her hand, he kissed her matching band smiling.

"Olivia Benson-Barba." The nurse called.

Liv looked at the nurse and looked back at Raf. He kissed her ring once more, got up and held out his hand. She took it, and they walked back into a room. The nurse gave Liv a grown and left, saying the doctor would be in short supply. Liv was sitting on the table, Raf behind her on the table. She could tell he was worried.

"Rafa, everything is going to be alright."

Raf laid his head against her back.

"I know, I'm still worried." Raf snuggled his head against her and scooted closer.

The doctor came in before Liv could comfort Raf. She did a quick checkup, took Liv's blood pressure and did blood work.

"Once we get your blood work back. We will do an ultrasound, to confirm." The doctor said smiling.

"Thank You." Raf said.

The doctor left once again they were alone. Raf sat back behind Liv on the table, wrapping his arms around her letting his hands find her stomach. He laid his chin on her shoulder. Liv smiled, moving her head so it would lay into the crooked of his neck.

"Love you, Rafa."

"Love you more, mi amor."

The doctor came back, to start doing the ultrasound. They started it, Raf was holding Liv's hand with his forehead against them when he heard it. A sound from the machine started and Raf looked up at the screen.

"Is that?"

"Your baby, yes. Everything looks good so far."

The doctor took a few pictures and gave them to Raf and Liv. They left, calling Lucia, telling her they would be there soon.

Lucia's House

Raf and Liv arrived at Lucia's house. They were greeted by Noah and Skylar. Raf looked at Liv once they all sat down for the dinner that Lucia had made them.

"Mami, Noah, Skylar, we have something to tell you." Raf said, smiling.

"What mijo?" Lucia sat down between the kids.

"I'm pregnant!" Liv smiled as Lucia got up and hugged them.

"I'm getting a brother or another sister?" Noah grinned.

"Yes mijo." Raf said as Noah started running around excited.

Skylar just copied her brother's expressions, the 2 year almost 3-year-old not understanding what was going on. After dinner and talking baby names Raf, Liv, Noah, and Sky went home Raf sent Liv to go take a bath and relax. He got both kids in bed, got himself ready for bed. They both sat on the couch, Liv had her head in his lap asleep, Raf was reading through a file when he realized she had fallen asleep with her hands on her stomach. He smiled, setting down the file, he watched her sleep.

"Liv, Liv." He whispered gently, shaking her shoulder.

Liv woke, smiling at him.

"Are you ready for bed?"

Liv sat up.

"I'll go check Skylar and you check on Noah." Raf said, kissing her.

They both got up, went to check on the kids. They both got into bed and were asleep in no time.

The Next Day

They got Noah to school and Lucy watched Skylar. Raf and Liv made it to the doctor's appointment right on time. The doctor did blood tests, checked Liv's weight and blood pressure. Which all came back good. Liv knew he would bring up her job, but she had already taken care of that part, starting to leave today till after the baby was born.

"I'm on leave as of today, so I think I shouldn't be too stressed." She said while looking at Raf.

"Would you like to know what you're having?"

"Yes. We would." They both replied.

The doctor started the ultrasound, moved it around a few times.

"Congratulations, you're having twins!"

Raf and Liv looked at each other.

"Twins?" Liv asked.

"Yes, both girls. Fraternal."

"Noah and I are going to be outnumbered." Raf chuckled.

"Is everything okay with them?" Liv asked.

"They seem to be. Healthy, strong heartbeat." The doctor looked at them smiling.

They finished up at the appointment. On their way home, Raf kept looking at Liv.

"Rafa, why do you keep looking at me?"

"I don't know, just in shock, you're carrying twins. I guess." Raf grabbed her hand and squeezed it.

Liv smiled.

They were almost home,

"Rafa, I want ice cream."

Raf looked at her.

"What kind?"

"Chocolate chip."

They stopped on their way home. Once home and half pint of ice cream later, Raf and Liv went to bed.

"So, baby names?' Liv asked.

"Liv, we have 8 ½ months. Let's get some sleep while Noah and Sky are still with my mom." Raf said already half asleep.

"Fine, but we are starting a list tomorrow." Liv replied, snuggled against Raf's chest.

"Sounds perfect mi amor. Night, I love you." Raf wrapped his arms around her and both fell asleep.

The Next Day

"So, what names do you suggest?" Raf asked.

"Hailey, Hannah. Kylie, Kaylee. Carolina, Catalina." Liv looked at Raf.

Raf smiled.

"What's yours?"

"Isabel, Isabella. Selena, Serena. Emma, Emilia." Raf replied.

"We just got to narrow it down to two."

"Let's wait and decide when it's closer to time?" Raf kissed her, rubbing her stomach.
