OWNED BY J.E. - I just play around with them. I am so sorry that updates are slowing but with real life and working 2 jobs I am mucho busy.
Last Time:
"This will be cold. I'm sorry about that." She squirted some hideous slime on my belly. She picked up the scanner and started pressing here and there hitting buttons the whole time. I was looking at Diesel and he was looking at the screen mesmerized.
"OK dear, here are your two little ones. From the measurements I would say you are about 4 weeks along but because you have two in there you will most likely grow quicker than a single pregnancy." I barely heard a word she said because I was looking at Diesel who had tears of joy streaming down his face. I have never seen such rapture before and I am so glad that Bobby had called him.
SPOV Continued….
I finally realized what the technologist said.
"Wait did you say two?"
"Yes, there are definitely two." I looked up at Diesel again. By now the tears had stopped but he still looked stunned and happy.
"D I wasn't going to tell you like this but we are having a baby. Well, I guess we are having two babies." Diesel was gazing at the screen. Just staring. It was almost like he was in a trance. "Can you hear me?" I asked him while squeezing his hand a little for reassurance.
"Sunshine, not only can I hear you I can see the two miracles that we have created on the screen. I never want to stop looking. Stephanie, I know that we haven't been together that long but I am so happy." He looked from the screen to my eyes. "Can I call Bobby in to see?" I was so happy that he wanted to share the joy.
"Of course you can." I turned towards the technologist. "Is that OK?" She smiled at the two of us and nodded her head.
When Diesel left to go find Bobby the tech apologized to me. She had no clue that Diesel was not aware that I might be pregnant. I assured her that it was fine. It was a surprise and not quite the way I wanted to tell him but it was beautiful and the look on his face was priceless. I put assuage the technologist by letting her know that it was OK and then laid there relaxing for a few minutes before Bobby came in.
Bobby was just as excited as Diesel when he saw the monitor and the pictures that the technologist printed out. We finished up and I cleaned the goop off my belly and out we went.
When we arrived back at the house Lester was sitting not so patiently in the kitchen. When I walked in he was drumming his fingers, bouncing his knees and shifting from side to side. He looked up expectantly.
"Where have you been? What the hell's going on? Why did Diesel run out of here when Bobby called him? WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON WITH MY BEST FRIEND?"
I didn't realize Lester was so upset and honestly I am unsure what he is so upset with. Diesel and Bobby slightly in front of me as if they were protecting me which set Lester off more.
"Jesus, Do you really think I would hurt Steph? I just want to know what is going on. Steph has been especially secretive and she is never that way with me. I just need to know that she is OK." Lester looked so lost and forlorn that I started to cry. I pushed past Bobby and Diesel and wrapped my arms around Lester.
"Les, I am fine. I have an issue that I was coming home to tell you about. Well apparently two issues that I have to tell you about. Come in to the living room and let's get comfortable." I pulled Lester up and keeping hold of his one hand and grabbing Diesel's I pulled them into the living room and pushed them onto the couch. I sat in the chair across from them and Bobby stood behind me.
"OK Lester here goes. You are going to be an uncle twice over." Lester's eyes got big.
"How?" one simple word dropped out of his mouth as it hung wide open. Bobby started laughing and I couldn't help but join in. Lester's face was priceless. Bobby being the medic decided to explain.
"You see Lester when a man and a woman have sex the man releases sperm." Lester held up his hand.
"Not that you idiot. I mean who is pregnant?" I laughed loudly before raising my hand.
"That would be me." Lester's eyes grew wide. He looked like that cartoon wolf that had seen the female wolf. He brought his hands to his hair and slumped down gripping his hair.
"OK so how can I be an uncle twice over? Who else is pregnant?" I turned red and again raised my hand.
"Jesus Steph stop raising your hand and just tell me what is going on."
"I am having twins."
This announcement caused Lester to jump up and whoop. He started babbling to himself making lists if what he needed to do and how it needed to be done. Diesel, Bobby and I just watched as Lester paced back and forth and back and forth. Bobby had finally had enough and stopped him.
"Les, knock it off. Jeez Steph has at least seven more months so that is plenty of time and we don't even know what she is having or if she is even going to find out. Just calm down and relax." I nodded to Diesel who grabbed Les's hand and pulled him down. Diesel nodded towards Les and Bobby.
"We have a question for you two." They both nodded at Diesel.
"We talked in the car on the way home and we would like you two to be the Godfather's of our babies." Bobby turned red while nodding vigorously and Lester looked dumbfounded.
"Do you mean it?" Lester asked looking at Diesel.
"Of course, you are Steph's best friend and our family. Bobby is as well. We don't know what we would do without you." Diesel's little speech was so heart felt I teared up. Bobby noticed and placed his hand on my shoulder squeezing gently to show his support.
Lester sat there stunned. "It will be an honor. I will be the best Godfather ever and I will protect them with my life." Bobby nodded in agreement and I felt my heart swell. Yes having two godfather's instead of one godfather and one godmother is a little different but then again my whole family is different. The more I thought about it the happier I became. With Bobby and Lester protecting my children they would know limitless love and sheltered but yet they would help them fly and be themselves. This was the best decision I think that I had ever made.
