A couple hours later, Troy was holding both of the twins in his arms. Gabriella was sleeping. The birth had worn her out. Troy looked at his children and still couldn't believe that they were here. There was a knock on the door, so Troy carefully placed both of the twins in their bassinets and walked to the hospital room door. He opened the door and saw his mother and Gabriella's mother.
"Congratulations Troy!" Both mothers exclaimed.
The two mothers hugged and kissed Troy. He then brought them into hospital room.
"Thank you! Gabriella's asleep so we need to be quiet" Troy said.
"How is she Troy?" Maria asked whispering.
"She's really happy but exhausted" Troy said.
"Can we see the twins?" Lucille asked her son.
"Yeah" Troy said taking the two mothers to the twin's bassinets.
"They are adorable Troy. What are their names?" Lucille asked.
"Hannah Amanda Bolton and Alexander Troy Bolton" Troy said proudly.
"I love the names. I forgot to ask though how are you doing?" Maria asked.
"I'm perfect. I am so happy I can't take the smile off my face. When you go through a pregnancy, you never really realize that you have a child until you actually see them for the first time. I finally feel like a father. When Hannah was born first, I cried. I finally felt that bond with my child that everyone talks about" Troy said.
"Wow. How did Gabriella react?" Maria asked.
"She cried like I did. Gabriella said she finally felt she had a motherly relationship with them" Troy said.
Gabriella started to wake up and noticed that there were people other than her and Troy in the room. She carefully sat up.
"Brie, how are you feeling?" Troy asked.
"I feel really sore but I feel good knowing that the twins are finally here" Gabriella said.
"Did you sleep well?" Troy asked.
"Yeah, can you hand me one of the twins?" Gabriella asked.
Troy picked up Hannah and brought her to Gabriella. He placed his daughter into Gabriella's arms and kissed her head.
"They are adorable Gabriella" Maria said.
"Thanks Mom. To me, Hannah looks more like Troy than me" Gabriella observed.
"Hannah has your nose though. She has my hair" Troy said.
"What about Alex?" Lucille asked.
"Alex has Gabriella's hair and lips but my face" Troy said.
"I love you Hannah" Gabriella whispered to the newborn and kissed her forehead.
Lucille, Maria, and Troy smiled. Troy lied down next to Gabriella on the bed.
"Do want to hold Alex?" Troy asked his mother in law.
"Of course" Maria said.
Troy got up carefully with son in his arms. He put Alex carefully in Maria's arms. Maria looked at her grandson and tears escaped from her eyes.
"He's beautiful Troy" Maria said.
"Thank you Maria" Troy said lying back down on the bed.
"Your father would be so proud of you Gabriella" Maria said looking at Gabriella.
Gabriella leaned her head on Troy's shoulder. Her father was a sensitive subject. Gabriella's father died due to cancer five years ago. Troy put his arm around Gabriella and kissed her head.
"Mom, do you want to hold Hannah?" Troy asked his mother.
"Do you really have to ask?" Lucille joked.
Gabriella placed her daughter into Troy's arms. Troy got off the bed carefully and brought the newborn to his mother.
"She is so cute. Hannah looks just like you Troy" Lucille said.
The two mothers stayed a little bit longer and then said their goodbye. They promised that they would visit the twins soon. Troy closed the door behind their mothers.
"Are you ready to go home tomorrow?" Troy asked Gabriella.
"Yeah, I just want us all to be home and sleep in our own beds" Gabriella said holding Alex.
"Take a nap baby. We will be going in a couple hours" Troy said.
Gabriella handed Alex to Troy. She snuggled into the uncomfortable hospital bed and fell asleep. Troy sat in the chair that was next to the bed again, holding the twins.
"You guys have the best mommy in the world. She and I love you both so much" Troy said kissing their heads.
A couple hours later, Gabriella and Troy were allowed to leave the hospital with the twins. Gabriella got out of bed carefully and went to the bathroom to change. She came out ten minutes later.
"Sore?" Troy asked.
"Extremely but I am okay" Gabriella said.
The couple strapped the twins into their car seats that Troy had brought from the car. They each took a twin and walked out the door. Troy and Gabriella walked to the car and opened the back seat. They placed the car seats that were holding their children in the car and buckled them into the car. The couple closed the doors and got into the car.
"Are you ready to go home?" Troy asked Gabriella.
"More than ready" Gabriella said yawning.
Troy drove his family home. They got out of the car and unbuckled their children from their car seats and brought them into the house. Troy and Gabriella took the twins upstairs and put them into their bed in the nursery.
"We are officially parents to two beautiful babies" Troy said putting his arm around Gabriella.
"Yes we are" Gabriella said.
Gabriella got closer to Troy's face. Troy pulled her in and was about to kiss her but was suddenly interrupted by a cry. Gabriella and Troy looked at the twins and saw them both crying. They picked up their children and carried them around the room until they stopped crying. Once they stopped, Troy and Gabriella put the twins back into their cribs.
"I should call Taylor and Chad and tell them we are home" Gabriella said.
"Okay. I will do baby watch" Troy said.
"I love you" Gabriella said kissing Troy's lips.
"I love you too babe" Troy said kissing her back.
Gabriella left the room and Troy sat in the rocking chair that was in between the two cribs. He couldn't believe that his life was perfect. He had a beautiful wife, two amazing children, and a family that was always there for him whenever he needed it. Troy's thoughts were interrupted when he heard a cry. He looked at both cribs and saw that Alex was crying. Troy picked him up.
"Hey bud, what's wrong?" Troy asked his son.
Troy felt his diaper and saw that Alex needed a diaper change. He carried Alex to the changing table and laid him down. Troy changed his diaper quickly and put his outfit back on. He carried Alex back to his crib and placed him carefully in it. Troy kissed his head and went to the other side of the room to check on Hannah. He looked at her over the crib and saw that she was asleep. Troy kissed her head and left the room. He walked down stairs and saw Gabriella hanging up the phone.
"Taylor and Chad are going to come over in a little while to see Hannah and Alex" Gabriella said.
"Okay. I just changed Alex's diaper so he should be fine for a couple hours. Hannah might need one soon. She was fast asleep when I checked on her" Troy said.
"Okay, they should be out for a while" Gabriella said kissing Troy's lips.
"You are a great mommy" Troy said looking at Gabriella.
"You are a great daddy" Gabriella said snuggling into his side.
The doorbell rang a couple minutes later. Troy ran to get it before he heard the twins cry. Gabriella ran upstairs to go see who was crying. She saw that Hannah was crying. Gabriella picked her daughter up and brought her downstairs. Taylor and Chad were sitting in the living room talking to Troy.
"Gabriella, she is so cute" Taylor gushed.
"Thanks Tay. Alex is still sleeping but I am sure he will be waking up soon" Gabriella said.
"How are you feeling?" Taylor asked her best friend.
"I'm exhausted but I am doing pretty well" Gabriella said.
The rest of the day, Troy, Gabriella, Taylor and Chad talked about the twins and how life would be as parents.
