Chapter 11 ~ "God bless the broken road that led me straight to you."

It's been such a long day, not only was I up very early, but something got into Landon and Lily and it made then wild today. All they did was play and play, more then normal of course. I wouldn't mind it but today I just wasn't in the mood for it. And Lucas had to work late today, something that wasn't normal and it made this day more outta-wack.

"Hey Mommy?" Lily asked, running over to where I was sitting in the living room.

"Yea."

"When's Daddy gonna be home?"

"I don't know sweetie, hopefully soon."

"Can I stay up till he gets home?"

"I guess so. Now why don't you go play?"

"Come play with me?"

"Mhm. Hey Lils, can I ask you a question?" All Lily had to do was look at me with those baby blue eyes that she got from Lucas and I already knew that the answer is yes. "Are you okay with being a big sister again?"

"I'm so excited, Mommy. Why you ask?"

"I was just wondering… and how about you little man?" Landon went into a fit of giggles as soon as I picked him up and kissed him all over his body. Pretty soon Lily joined in and we were all laughing and having a good time. That was until I was out of breath; carrying two kids and playing with two toddlers really takes a lot out of you. So I just sat back and watched the two of them play. They were so cute and loving with each other. It was then that the babies starting kicking real hard; it was no big deal, but I thought the kids may like it.

"Lily, do you want to feel something cool?'

"Duh!"

"Well then come over silly girl."

"Ok..."

"Now give me your hand." I grabbed her hand and put it on my stomach.

"WOW!!!! That is so cool."

"Yea, you know what that is?"

"Mhm… baby brother and sister."

"Yup, Landon come here so you can feel." I did the same thing with Landon's hand but I got a different response. "Sshhh… Landon, its ok, its ok; Mommy's right here." While I was attempting to soothe Landon, Lucas walked in.

"Daddy's home!!!!!!!" Lily screamed

"Yea, he is pumpkin and he's so sorry for coming home late." The latter part of that statement was partially directed towards me.

"It's ok, Daddy I forgive you." Lily said which I accompanied with an agreeing smile, letting him know that I too forgive him.

"Good, and what's the matter little man?" Lucas asked taking Landon out of my arms and giving me a quick peck on the lips.

"Momma!!" he said and pointed to me, and Lucas gave me the look.

"The babies were kicking and he felt it and got freaked out."

"Oh… Its ok, Landon; Daddy's here."

"Yea and I think someone's a little cranky since it's past everyone's bed time."

"No. I don't wanna go to bed. I wanna spend time with Daddy."

"Lily, don't do this now." I said, starting to get annoyed. I just wasn't in the mood for this right now.

"Hey, how about while I put Landon to bed, you go get ready and we'll lay down in your bed and we'll watch a movie?" Lucas asked, since we both knew that she would be out as soon as the movie started.

"Ok."

"Now go…"

"Ok, goodnight Mommy."

"Night sweetie, I love you."

"Love you too." With that she ran up the stairs; it was just me and Lucas, Landon was satisfied with playing on the floor.

"Luke, you don't need to put both of them to bed. I'll take Landon; you worked all day, longer than you normally do."

"Hey, listen to me," he said pulling me towards him, "I'm not tired and besides I wanna give you a little break, since you haven't been sleeping a whole hell of a lot."

"Luke, I'm fine." I said, which my luck I let out a big yawn as soon as those word's left my mouth.

"Yea, okay you are." Lucas said chuckling and picking up Landon. "Say goodnight to Mommy."

"Nigh Momma luv you."

"Love you too, sweet dreams my boy."

With Lucas putting the kids to bed, it freed me up some what, but I still felt bad for making him do that as soon as he got home. I started to attempt to clean up the mess downstairs, but halfway through I decided not to cuz it would only get messy tomorrow. So I did all the dishes and then decided to head upstairs. I checked on Landon and he was fast asleep; I heard "The Hannah Montana" movie on so that means that at least Luke get her to bed. I started to walk towards the bedroom, but stopped in front of the twins' room and got lost in thought. I can't believe that within two weeks these two will be here, we started painting and getting ready for them as soon as I was released from the hospital and came home from Peyton's, five months ago. Peyton decided to surprise us and paint the rooms while we weren't home. There was Winnie the Pooh characters all over the room. Over one crib was a Princess crown and all other girlie things, much to both Lucas's and Peyton's disapproval, but I wanted it and love it. And over the other crib was basketballs and hoops, Lucas loved that part.

"Luke, you scared me." I said as he put his hands around me, landing protectively over my stomach.

"Yea, but you love it."

"No, I love you."

"True… What you thinking about Pretty Girl?"

"Us, the kids, these two, the family as a whole, Peyton and Jake." I said relaxing a little, and fitting myself into Lucas's body.

"Oh really, what about these two?"

"How much their gonna be loved; if Landon and Lily will be jealous."

"They are gonna be loved as much as everyone else in the house. And Lily and Landon won't be jealous. So you don't need to worry."

"I know… you happy Luke? With your job, me, the kids, becoming a father again."

"More than you know." Lucas said, and that was the answer I was dieing to hear.

"Yea, how about now?" I asked, after I gave him a kiss.

"I'm ecstatic."

"Good, I'm glad… me too." I said, letting out a sigh.

"Come on, let's go to bed." Lucas said, grabbing my arm and pulling me towards our bedroom.

"But Luke, you know that if we go to bed now that we'll both be up so early." I whispered, not wanting to wake the kids.

"Actually, you'll already be up that early anyway."

"Ha... You're never touching me again, and you will pay for that comment."

"Who you kidding? You love being pregnant."

"SO not the point right now."

"Fine, I am sorry. How about we just go and put a movie on and just snuggle together?"

"Ok, that sounds great. You pick a movie while I go pee."

"Ok, but no complaining about what I picked."

Lucas and I laid down and just snuggled up close to one another. It felt so right; I honestly can't remember the last time we did that. I was so happy. I propped myself on my elbow and wanted to give Lucas a kiss, but he was already fast asleep. I instead kissed him on the forehead and just watched him sleep; he sleeps so peacefully, and it melts my heart. I laid there until I fell asleep. All in all, it was a good day.
