The sounds of labor could be clearly heard in the Medical Wing of Massive Dynamic, the screams heard throughout the entire wing. Peter Bishop ran down the halls towards the room he was looking for and busted in, finding Olivia in labor.

"God Sweetheart I'm sorry." He took her hand and held it, "sorry I'm late."

"Actually you're right on time Mr. Bishop, Director Dunham was just beginning to push the first of the twins out." Dr. Eli Pujodi looked at them from his stop at the end of the bed, "alright Olivia I need you to push hard."

"Why can't they just teleport out?" Olivia looked at Peter, she had refrained from any type of pain medication on her new found fear of needles.

Peter chuckled and looked at her, "and let you miss out on your most important job of being a mother, I doubt even the twins would let you get away with it. Didn't you take any meds?"

"No needles." She groaned and Pujodi eyed her.

"It's best you begin to push,"

Olivia began to push and Peter held her hand the entire time, squeezing it and coaching her.

"That's it baby, you're doing good." Peter looked at Pujodi and he nodded, "come on, you can do it."

"Good Olivia, the head is out, Dad do you want to see?"

Peter shook his head, "no," he smiled at Olivia, "one of them is almost here, keep on baby, keep on."

Seconds later a first cry was heard and Pujodi held up a crying infant, "Director, Mr. Bishop may I introduce you to your son."

Olivia smiled, "hello Dunham."

Peter kissed her head and smiled, "we have a boy, a baby boy." He looked at her and she smiled, Pujodi handed the baby to a nurse and turned back to Olivia. Peter smiled, "one more baby, Lucy is ready to enter the world."

Ten minutes later Olivia was pushing again and she screamed, a cry was heard and Pujodi held up the baby girl. "Your daughter."

"Lucy." Olivia looked at Peter and he smiled, kissing her as he hugged her. "They're here Peter, they're finally here."

"I know, I know they are and they're safe now." He watched as the nurse took Lucy and began to weigh her.

Pujodi looked at Olivia, "if you're ready, we can deliver the afterbirth." Olivia nodded and he eyed her, "just a gentle push, to allow it to come."

After being cleaned up, Olivia allowed herself to meet her children face to face for the first time physically. The nurse, Laura, handed Lucy to her. "Seven pounds, thirteen ounces and twenty inches long...she's beautiful, what's her name?"

Olivia looked down at her daughter, "Lucy Elizabeth Bishop, she's named after someone very special, two people. She's named after both her grandmothers, her father's mother and my grandmother."

Peter came over and looked at Olivia, "six pounds, twelve ounces and twenty inches long, you delivered some healthy size babies. So tell me, was it worth it?"

She looked at him and smiled, "every moment of pain, have you decided on his middle name yet?"

Peter nodded, "I have, after someone very close to both of us, someone who would laugh if he saw this." He sat on the bed, "Dunham Charlie Bishop meet Mommy."

Olivia took her son's hand and the baby opened his eyes, green eyes showed brightly. "He has my eyes, just like my vision." She looked at Lucy who opened her eyes to show blue orbs staring at them. "And she has your eyes...we did good Peter."

Peter chuckled and nodded, "yeah we did, are you up for a few more in the future?"

"Maybe, if you deliver them." She looked down at Lucy, "hello my baby girl, I've known you since the day I found out about you but never really have known you."

You know me Mommy!

Both Peter and Olivia looked at each other, their daughter's telepathy was present even right after birth. "Oh boy."

Later in the evening, Elizabeth and Walter came by as did Ella and Rachel, all crowding in to see the twins.

"Oh Liv, they're beautiful." Rachel looked at Lucy, "who's this?"

"Lucy Elizabeth Bishop meet your Aunt Rachel and your cousin Ella."

Ella climbed on the bed carefully and looked at Peter, "Uncle Peter can I hold him?"

Peter gently placed Dunham in Ella's arms, "there you go, careful of his head...I think he likes you Ella."

Rachel eyed Dunham, "oh he's so adorable, what's his name...let me guess, Peter after his father?"

"Actually this little guy is named after his mother, Aunt Rachel meet Dunham Charlie Bishop, Dunham this is your Aunt Rachel and your cousin Ella."

A knock made them all look up to see Walter and Elizabeth, "we had to see them, hi Ella."

"Hi Aunt Elizabeth...its my new cousin Dunham and that's Lucy."

Elizabeth managed to take Lucy from Olivia and smiled, "what's her middle name, did you two finally decide?"

Peter chuckled, "no we couldn't agree so we made a deal, I get our son's middle name and she gets our daughter's. Mom, may I present your granddaughter Lucy Elizabeth Bishop and grandson Dunham Charlie Bishop."

Walter looked at Ella, "may I hold him?"

Ella nodded and Peter gently took Dunham before placing him in Walter's arms. "Careful Walter, his head needs supporting."

"I know how to hold a newborn Peter, I held you."

Olivia held her hand out to Peter and he sat on the bed beside her, pulling her into his arms. "Sorry I was late."

"You were right on time, maybe you can make it a little bit earlier for the wedding though."

Peter kissed her head, "yes, very much earlier, like four hours earlier...but you're wrong, we didn't do good...we did out of this world." He chuckled, "Lucy and Dunham are going to amaze everyone and become something great."

"I love you Peter."

"I love you too Olivia Dunham." He kissed her head and accepted his daughter, wanting to hold her for the first time since Olivia had hogged her since her birth. "I love you baby girl."

Love you too Daddy!

He smiled and kissed her head, staring down at her as she stared at him, blue eyes meeting and forming a connection. Peter knew somehow that his daughter and son would be part of the war in the future but that would be a long time off if he had anything to say about it.

A/N: The next chapter will be two years later, the twins will be two years old and very energetic.
