Chapter 18

***Thirty-Nine Weeks***

Sitting at the clubhouse, on one of the couches next to Piney with my head laid on his shoulder. "You okay Sweetheart?" he asks as I hold my stomach. "Shhh." I tell him and he looks at me. "Contractions?" he asks and I nod. He pats my knee and asks "How far apart?" I sit up and say "Thirty minutes but getting closer." I say and he smiles. "I gotta pee." I say and go to stand. Jax is standing nearby and helps me stand. "Here you go Darlin." he says. "Thanks." I say. All of a sudden a hard contraction hits and my water breaks. "Shit." I say laughing. "Ope!" Jax yells. "Shit. Is that?" he asks. "Kids are coming." I say smiling. Getting into Gemma's SUV with the entire club behind us.

Fourteen hours later, we are sitting in my hospital room with everyone inside with us. I'm holding our son and Opie is holding our daughter. "So what are their names?" Gemma asks. "Kenneth Harry and we'll call him Kenny and Elizabeth Perimore and we'll call her Ellie." I say. Piney looks at me and says "After me?" he asks and I nod. Standing up he walks over and kisses my forehead and says "Thank you Sweetheart."

After everyone leaves, I look at Opie, holding Kenny and ask "You okay?" He looks at me and says "They're here." I smile and say "They are. How you doing with that?" I ask. "I've never been happier." he tells me. "What about you?" he asks. "I'm very happy. How's he doing?" I ask. "Good. Hungry little shit." he says laughing. "She is too." I say. We sit in silence for awhile, just enjoying our little family.

A couple of days later, we are walking into the house, Opie holding both carriers to see our family there to welcome us home. I sit on the couch next to Piney while he holds both babies. I look around and smile at the wonderful family I've found.
