So I meant to do this in the last chapter but I'll add it to this one. Clarissa's middle name will be Jennifer after Chloe's mom. Or if you don't like the name Clarissa Jennifer Souza maybe later in the story Chloe can get pregnant again and name the girl Jennifer? Review and tell me what you think please! =) Anyway, y'all are amazing! I love your reviews! Each time I read the reviews on the chapter I can't wait to start writing this again! So hopefully this chapter will come as a big surprise! =)
DEREK POV
Once we got done picking baby names we decided to rent a movie on TV. Jess picked The Lovely Bones.
It didn't bother her since she gets hired to kill rapist and such people all the time but I was worried if it would upset Chloe.
Once it got to the gruesome part of the girl's murder I saw Chloe flinch. I tried to distract her.
'Chloe love, what is Clarissa's middle name going to be?' I asked her through the bond. She thought about it for a minute. 'If it's alright with you I'd like to name her after my mom.' She said.
'I think that's a perfect idea. Clarissa Jennifer Souza.' I told her, testing the name out in my mind. Once Chloe turned her attention back to the movie she started getting worried about if this could happen to our children.
Then she kept thinking of worse scenarios. I stroked her hair and attempted to soothe her. 'Chloe baby, they'll be fine. We can protect them. We defeated the Edison Group. If we can beat them we can beat anybody that tries to harm our children.' I reassured her.
She smiled gratefully back at me then yawned and told me she was going to bed. I was about to stand up, intending to follow her upstairs.
'You don't have to come up with me. I'm ok. I know your not tired.' She told me. I hesitated. It was in my nature to want to be close to my mate at all possible times.
Once Chloe got pregnant I took that as be right with her, not just close to her, at all possible times. Finally, with a look from Chloe, I decided to stay downstairs just until the end of the movie.
She got up from the couch and said goodnight to everyone who all then proceeded to give her a good night hug and kiss.
During the movie Tori went to bed and Simon drifted off leaving me alone with dad and Jess once the movie was over. "So Derek. You ready to be a dad soon?" Jess asked me.
"Sort of. I'm excited and I can't wait until the twins are born but I'm nervous I won't be a good enough dad." I told her.
"That's only natural. If you treat the twins anything like you do Chloe you will be a great dad." Dad told me. "Thanks dad." I told him and he hugged me. I'm going to head up to bed. Night dad. Night Jess." I said and headed upstairs.
THE NEXT MORNING
Jess made breakfast then Chloe and I said our goodbyes and headed home, making plans to go out for dinner tonight with everyone.
We got home and I put our bags upstairs then came and sat next to Chloe on the couch. "It's good to finally be home." Chloe said with a sigh.
"It is. It's been a long week. So what do you want to do today?" I asked her. "If you're up for it I think we should start the nursery. We don't have to go shopping yet just see what we need and make a list." She said.
"I'm up for it. We'll plan today then go out and buy everything we need later this week." I said and we headed upstairs. We stepped into the guest room next to our bedroom.
We had 3 guest rooms total. Since Simon and Tori stayed over a lot they got the 2 at the end of the hall. The guest room next to ours we made a nursery once Chloe got pregnant.
Right before we left to visit Chloe's dad we had a connecting door installed from our bedroom to the nursery and moved all the furniture out.
"What color do you think we should make the room?" Chloe asked me. "How about a light blue? That way it's not too girly or manly. Then when they get older we can let them decide what color they want it to be." I suggested.
"Good idea. So light blue paint, 2 cribs, a changing tableā¦." I cut her off. "One changing table or two?" "Hmmm you're right. Probably 2." She said then continued. "
Ok so 2 changing tables, maybe a chest or something to store their toys in." Suddenly Chloe's phone rang from in her pocket. She checked the caller ID.
"It's my dad. You think everything's alright?" she asked me worriedly. "I'm sure he's just seeing if you got home alright. Answer it and see what he wants." I told her.
"Hi dad!" She answered. I listened to their conversation. "Hi sweetie. Hey I've got a surprise for you. But I need to give it to you in person and it can't wait. Any way you could make it back up here?" her dad asked.
"Not really dad. I got carsick coming home so I'm not up for another car ride. Sorry." Chloe told him. "Can he come here?" I asked Chloe. "He could stay for a few days so he doesn't have to drive home with all the traffic."
"Good idea. Thanks Der." Chloe said. 'Dad? Can you come here? You can stay for a few days if you want." "I can do that. I'll leave here around noon and get there about 2 or 2:30. Is that ok?" Steve asked.
"Yeah that's fine. See you then. Bye love you." Chloe said and hung up. We finished the nursery list, ate lunch and prepared the guest room. At 2:00, true to his word, Steve showed up.
I smelled and heard someone else outside the door. Steve noticed this and shook his head saying whoever it was they ment no harm. He came in and gave Chloe a hug.
"Ok so let me just get right to it. Here's the surprise. Come in guys!" Mr. Saunders called. "Guys? Dad who's here?" Chloe asked confused. Just then a boy and a girl about Chloe's age walked in.
"Nate? Keri?" Chloe cried and surprise and ran up to them. Nate and Kari- Chloe told me they were her two best friends from her arts high school. "Hi Chloe!" Keri said hugging her.
Nate tried to follow but I growled and stepped in between them. I didn't like any guy strangers near my mate. If I didn't know them I can't trust them with Chloe.
"Oh sorry Nate. This is my husband Derek. He's very protective of me." Chloe told him. "The werewolf right?" Kari asked from beside Nate. Chloe and I stared at her with expressions of horror.
"Oh sorry. Your dad told us. He explained all about how you're a supernatural and stuff with the Edison Group." Kari explained. "Dad you weren't supposed to tell anyone! They could get in serious trouble!" Chloe said worriedly.
"Sorry Chloe I felt I had to explain. And they won't tell anyone right?" Steve asked looking at Kari and Nate.
"No we won't. Don't worry. Also we met those people who put you away. Diane and Marcel was it? They told us what you guys were thinking if they did we'd help them find you and lock you up. We lied and said you had contacted us and led them to a wrong trail. So basically your dad only confirmed what they told us." Nate said.
"Oh that's great thank you! I'm so glad you guys know now! And you don't have to worry about the Edison Group anymore. We defeated them. Why don't you guys bring your bags in and I'll let you get settled." Chloe told them.
They brought in their bags from the car then we had to figure out where everyone would sleep. "So we don't have enough rooms for you guys. Sorry. The extra bedroom we're turning into a nursery.
So one of you will have to sleep on the pullout in the living room. Is that ok? " Chloe asked them. "I'll sleep there. It's no problem." Nate said.
Once everyone put they're bags away we all settled down in the living room. "So when are you due? And what are you having? " Kari asked Chloe excitedly.
"September. I'm having twins!" Chloe said excited to answer Kari's questions. "Any names yet?" Kari asked. "Steven Kit and Clarissa Jennifer Souza." I told her.
Ok weird place to end it but I wanted to end it there for the next chapter. What do you think though? Surprised I brought in both Nate and Kari? Review please!
