Chapter Twenty Four
Emily was in a blind panic when she got to the hospital, when she reached Hanna she practically collapsed into the blondes arms.
"What happened?" She sobbed.
"I was outside the brew," Hanna cried, "I saw Ali's car run the stop light and the other car just smashed into the side of her."
"Is she...is she?" Emily couldn't get the words out.
"They're delivering the babies, Ali's okay but..Em, I had to pull her out of the car," Hanna sobbed, "It...it was on fire. There was so much smoke."
"Fuck," Emily hissed, hugging Hanna tightly, "You're officially my hero."
"She's going to be okay isn't she? She can't...Ali's going to pull through?"
"Of course," Emily bit her lip, fresh set of tears running down her face, "She's strong and she...Ali wouldn't miss meeting the babies, okay?"
Hanna nodded.
"You probably saved her life, Han," Emily smiled, "How am I ever going to thank you?"
Hanna sniffled, "Maybe...once all this is over...if everyone's okay...you'd let me name the babies?"
"Hanna Marin?" A nurse called out, both women turned quickly to her.
"This is Emily, Alison's...baby daddy," Hanna explained.
"Hi," The nurse smiled, "So I just wanted to let you know that everything is going well, Alison and both babies are being monitored while they do the emergency c section but so far everyone is stable."
"Oh my God," Emily breathed out, "Thank you so much."
"Well I think you can thank this one," The nurse gestured to Hanna, "Alison's doctor thinks that if she'd breathed in the fumes from the crash for any longer things would be going very differently."
Emily's eyes widened, she watched the nurse walk away before turning back to Hanna who had the same look on her face, "You can absolutely name them, Hanna."
"Yes!" Hanna grinned, hugging Emily around the waist, "Em," She smiled, "They're going to be okay."
"I know," Emily grinned back.
"Do you think they'll look more like Em or Al?" Cece asked lazily from her place on the couch, her legs resting on Hanna who was at the other end.
"I don't know but they'll cuss like sailors by the time they're two with Ali's potty mouth," Hanna smirked.
"I'm just looking forward to seeing Ali and Em deal with the teenage years if they get Ali's temper," Dani grinned, making the others laugh.
"Now that would be funny," Caleb agreed.
"Are you okay, Sweet Pea?" Pam asked, watching Emily pace in front of them.
"I'll be fine once I see Ali," Emily bit her lip, "I just...I just need to see her."
Pam nodded sympathetically but paused when she saw a look of pure anger cross her daughters face.
"What the hell do you think you're doing here?" Emily hissed.
Ken looked Emily up and down in distaste, "I suppose you're the one shacked up with my daughter?"
"You're out of your mind if you think you're seeing her," Emily shook her head.
"I don't see how it's any of your business," Ken said, his tone dismissive.
"Of course she's my business," Emily spat, "You said she should be dead and guess what? Your wish almost came true."
"Is drama a part of your culture?"
"You're not welcome here unless Alison invites you," Emily snarled. She felt a hand on her shoulder and saw Caleb behind her.
"I've got this, you go back to thinking about Ali," He smiled. Emily nodded her head, sending him the best smile she could muster and watched Caleb escort Ken out.
"Emily Fields?"
All five women jumped up at the sound of the doctors voice, circling round him with wide eyes.
"I'm doctor Austin, Alison's doctor," He introduced himself, "We just moved Alison to a private room, she's still asleep at the moment because of the sedatives we had to give her but she should wake up in the next hour or so. The twins are healthy and waiting to meet you if you're ready?"
"I am," Emily swallowed thickly, "I am absolutely ready."
Emily followed the doctor through the hallway and into the private room. The first thing she saw was Alison on the bed, her eyes shut and her stomach looking considerably less full.
"Ali," Emily breathed out a sigh of relief, feeling the tension leave her body after just setting her eyes on the blonde. She immediately pressed a kiss to the blondes forehead before her eyes flickered to the nurse in the room who was hovering over a cot.
Emily held her breath walking over, her eyes welled with tears as soon as she saw them. They were tiny, smaller than Emily imagined babies would be. The boy baby had fair hair like Alison and the girl baby had dark hair like her. Emily reached down carefully and stroked their little arms.
"Hey babies, I'm your Mommy," Emily grinned, "I love you both so much and Mama's going to wake up soon too, so she can meet you."
"Beautiful babies," The nurse smiled.
Emily grinned from ear to ear, "They're perfect."
Alison blinked he eyes open. Squinting as they adjusted to the light. She saw Jason and Cece sharing an armchair and cooing over a baby bundled in pink blankets. Dani, Hanna and Caleb crammed onto a small couch. Pam standing up at the end of her bed rocking a baby wrapped in blue and Emily sitting at the end of the bed. Alison moved her toes to nudge the brunette and watched as Emily whipped around, wide eyed.
"Ali," Emily gasped, rushing to her head and pressing a kiss to her forehead, "Are you hurting?"
Alison shook her head 'no' and stared at Emily.
"What is it?" Emily grabbed her hand, "Are you okay?"
"It's you," Alison whispered.
"Yeah," Emily nodded, "I'm here, Ali."
"No," Alison swallowed, "It's you."
Emily frowned while Alison just looked up at her with wide eyes, "Ali, the babies are here-"
"Emily Fields," Alison smiled.
"Let me get the-"
"Wait," Alison interrupted, fisting Emily's shirt and pulling the brunette's face to hers. Once they were only and inch away Alison studied Emily's face.
"Ali?" Emily questioned.
"Em, it's you," Alison smiled, pressing their lips together.
"Al," Emily whispered, "Everyone's here and-"
"I know," Alison pulled her in for another kiss.
"Ali," Emily frowned, "Are you okay?"
"I'm better than okay, I'm yours."
"What?" Emily's mouth fell open.
"I...I love you, Emily," Alison smiled at Emily's gasp, "And you're it for me."
"Are you kidding?" Emily blinked, Alison shook her head no with a grin.
"I'm serious, I'm yours if you want me."
Emily grabbed the blondes face, pulling her into a searing kiss, "Of course I want you, I love you too, Ali."
"Oh fuck it," Hanna grumbled, pulling twenty bucks out of her pocket and handing it to a smug looking Cece. That made everyone laugh.
Emily slid into the hospital bed next to Alison, smiling down at the sleeping babies on Alison's lap.
"They're perfect," Alison whispered, not taking her eyes off them.
"You're pretty perfect too," Emily smiled, pressing a kiss into the blondes hair.
Alison's head found it's way to Emily's shoulder and Emily wrapped an arm around her waist, "Our family is perfect."
Emily giggled, briefly tickling the blondes side, "Look at who's a cheese ball now."
"Shut up," Alison smirked, "We still have to name them."
"About that," Emily bit her lip, "I kind of said Hanna could, since she saved your life and everything."
Alison rolled her eyes, "Of course Hanna would get her way. So what are their names? Hanna and Hanno?"
"Be nice," Emily shook her head fondly, tapping the blondes hip, "The names she picked are unusual but they've kind of grown on me."
"You're worrying me."
"This," Emily rested her hand on their son's belly, "Is Bear."
"Bear?" Alison raised an eyebrow while Emily nodded.
"And this," Emily moved her hand to their daughters belly, "Is Fields."
"Unusual is right," Alison giggled, staring at their children for a few seconds before glancing up at Emily, "Em.."
"Yes?" Emily asked, holding the blondes eye contact.
"I know that all of this started with an accident but..." She bit her bottom lip, "I'm so in love with all three of you, it's unreal."
Emily grinned, pinching the blondes cheek and pressing a gentle kiss to her lips, "We're in love with you too."
