Chapter Six:
Month Five
"Brax! Brax! Brax!" Charlie shouted as she hit him with the spare pillow beside his bed, Brax groaned. "Brax, get up! I want chocolate chip pancakes and you make the best one" Charlie whined and Brax sighed.
"Go away!" Brax moaned and Charlie placed her hands on her hips.
"Darryl Braxton! Your children and I are starving, so get your ass out of bed and into the kitchen" Charlie ordered and Brax sighed.
"Charlie"
"Now!" Charlie shouted as she tapped her foot against the wooden floor.
"Alright, alright" Brax muttered as he climbed out of bed. "What do you want?"
"Chocolate chip pancakes, banana milkshake and oh, oh – two waffles" Charlie said and Brax groaned.
"Couldn't you have gone out to breakfast? It's going to take me forever" Brax told her and Charlie raised an eyebrow.
"Get to it"
^..^
"I don't want to find out" Brax told Charlie as he helped her up onto the bed, they were waiting for Nate to do the most important ultrasound for them but it still something they couldn't agree on, Charlie looked at him a frown forming on her face.
"I want to"
"I don't Charlz, don't you want a surprise?" Brax asked – it had never occurred to him that he would find out the sex of his children but then again he didn't think he would be having children at this age at least not with his best friend.
"We are finding out!"
"Charlie" Brax whined as he saw her glare.
"No, no. I want to know how to shop. I'm the one carrying the babies so I chose" Charlie told him and Brax sighed in defeat, rolling his eyes.
"Keep using that against me" Brax muttered and Charlie smirked.
"That's what I thought" Charlie said as she looked down at her rounded belly – for five months she was quite big. "Have you thought of some names?"
"Darryl Junior?" Brax teased and Charlie rolled her eyes.
"We are not calling our kid Darryl!"
"Why not? Darryl is a good name" Brax said as he faked being offended and Charlie giggled.
"You hate the name Darryl" Charlie exclaimed and Brax shrugged.
"Uhg, you're right we are not sticking our kid with it. How about Charles?" Brax asked and Charlie stuck her tongue out in disgust.
"No!"
"Alright princess, you come up with one" Brax said and Charlie smiled but nodded.
"How about Jacob?" Charlie asked and Brax shook his head.
"Nah"
"Hey Jacobs a good name" Charlie exclaimed.
"No it isn't, what about Jackson?" Brax asked and Charlie grinned.
"I like Jackson, but I love Jie"
"Jie Ross?" Brax asked and tears welled up in Charlie as she turned to Brax and basically through herself off the bed and into his arms, the sobbing coming from her caused Brax to wrap his arms around her tighter. "What did I say?" Brax asked concerned.
"You…you want to name him…you want to name one after my father?" Charlie sobbed and Brax smiled as he kissed her head.
"If we have a boy then yes, Jie Ross sounds perfect. But we could get all girls" Brax said and Charlie shook her head.
"No, there is at least one boy" Charlie told him and Brax laughed he could hear the stubbornness in her voice so he nodded.
"Okay Charlz, one boy"
"What about for a girl?" Charlie asked as she pulled back a little. "I like Ruby"
"I love Ruby" Brax told her honestly and Charlie beamed like a child.
"Yes! How about Ruby Elise? Uh – after my mum" Charlie said shyly and Brax nodded.
"Perfect, now get back up on that bed" Brax said shooing her and Charlie giggled as she did as told.
…
"Alright Charlie, this is going to be cold" Nate warned as he put a blob of gel onto Charlie's stomach causing a gasp to escape her lips, Nate gave her a soft smile as he begun to move the transducer around he concentrated for a moment before the screen was filled with the sight of their two children. "Here are the heart beats" Nate informed as the sound of two beating hearts filled the room – Charlie grinned at Brax which he openly returned with a bright smile. "It appears we have to perfectly healthy little bubs right here. Now I know last appointment we weren't sure on what we wanted, so are we finding out the sex of the babies today?" Nate asked and Charlie bit her lips.
"No" Charlie murmured softly.
"What? I thought you wanted to" Brax asked with a frown and Charlie nodded.
"I do but your letting me name them after my parents, if we get a boy and girl so I think we should do something for you as well" Charlie told him and Brax rolled his eyes.
"She's being stupid, we will find out otherwise I will never hear the end of it" Brax said and Charlie hit him.
"Brax!"
"What? We are finding out or you'll be giving me grief" Brax said as he nodded to Nate. "Alright mate give us the good news, what do we have in there?" Brax asked and Nate chuckled as he moved the transducer a little more taking in the picture of one of the babies.
"We sure?" Nate asked and Brax held Charlie's hand tightly as he nodded. "Well it looks like baby A is a little girl" Nate said and Charlie gasped.
"A little girl Brax, a little girl" Charlie said as the tears started to roll down her cheeks.
"Little Ruby Elise" Brax murmured as he placed a kiss to Charlie's cheek – Nate smiled at the pair as he moved the transducer to the next bub.
"And Baby B is a…another little girl" Nate announced and Charlie beamed.
"Looks like I'm stuck with two mini Charlie's"
"Hey!"
