Blake's POV

I decided to go and visit Roxas again, since there was no change in Eli, and Roxas seemed so happy the other day.

A child sick in the hospital with no visitors is such an awful thing, especially when he's so positive and upbeat. I wish I had his attitude. So I went to his room and paused outside, seeing the nurse re-doing an IV and not wanting to interrupt. She saw and motioned with her hand that I could come in.

"Roxas, sweetie, your friend Blake is here." He opened his eyes, looking like a completely different child than yesterday. "He just had chemo a little while ago."

"Hey…" He moaned, giving a crooked smile.

"Hey, Roxas. How're you feeling?" He gave a weak laugh.

"Pretty good. You?"

"All right. I thought I'd stop by and see how you were feeling. I can come back when you feel a little better." He yawned, his tiny chest rising a little.

"Okay." He rolled onto his side, curling up in the fetal position.

"What kind does he have?" I asked the nurse when we got outside the door. I wondered briefly if it was wrong for me to ask, but I was curious.

"He has a tumor on his left lung, and we're trying to shrink it before we surgically remove it." She left to go do other things, and I was left at Roxas' doorway, watching the small boy sleep peacefully.

Kimi's POV

"Gah, indigestion again?!" I felt those same cramps in my lower abdomen, and rubbed them subconsciously. Jake chuckled from the counter, where he was making dinner.

"What did you eat this time?"

"Nothing! Not since lunch!" These twins are so sensitive to anything I eat lately. It was so annoying.

Jake paused, pondering something. But before he could say anything, I felt my butt get wet…REALLY wet. I squeaked, knowing now it wasn't indigestion I'd been feeling, but the beginning of labor pains.

"Jake…" I moaned, gripping the table, my hands shaking. "I-it's…t-t-time…" I whined, feeling very overwhelmed and vulnerable, scared, because whether I was ready or not, I was about to become a mother.

Blake's POV

My phone began to buzz in my pocket when me and Roxas were talking about school and likes and things. I flipped it open and Jake's urgent voice came shouting into my ear.

"Kimi's in labor! It's early, dude!" My eyes opened wide, and I opened and closed my mouth like a floundering fish.

"Oh, my god! Oh, jeez, now?!"
"Yeah!"
"What's wrong?" Roxas asked; small hand on my wrist.

"Well, I'm at the hospital anyway. Visiting a friend. I'll meet you here."

"Okay, thanks. Hey, man?"

"Yeah?" He sounded scared.

"I'm scared."

"I know, Jake, I know."

Kimi's POV

The pain is so bad. I can't bear this pain, it hurts so much. Man, little babies, can't you be a little gentler on Mommy? I'm trying my hardest, you know.

"You're eleven weeks early from full term. Nine for twins." The doctor said, not paying attention to my gasps of pain and fear, she only cared about the technical things.

"Jake…" I moaned out, reaching out towards him. He looked so scared, too. He grasped my hand, leaning down and kissing my forehead over and over, trying to keep his emotions in check, to be brave for me. "Jake, I love you."

"I love you, too, Kimi. You and our babies." The doctor stripped me of my clothes and gave me a hospital gown, rushing me into the delivery room; I didn't even get an epidural. This sucked.

They told me to push down, and I tried. I honestly tried, but what do you expect from a sixteen-year-old girl? It was so painful; I screamed and cried out in agonizing pain.

Jake held my hand, holding my head to him, tears streaming down his own face. Minute's passed, long, painful minutes. My screams could be heard from down the hall, I'm sure.

It hurt so much. But I'm sure it would be worth it. Then there was a extremely painful contraction and shove, and the doctor stepped back, a small little baby in his arms. It let out a cry, and Jake gave out his own little cry.

"It's a girl."

"Alexis…" Jake breathed, letting his hard shell he'd worn for his entire life crumble. He reached out and took his daughter in his arms, cradling her and holding her close. "So beautiful. She's so beautiful."

I smiled, but was overwhelmed by another contraction similar to the one that bore Alexis, and another cry pierced the air. My son, my little baby boy, Jasper.

Finally it was all over. My two little, beautiful babies were finally born and all mine.

A little while later—Kimi's POV

"Jasper Alexander…you're gonna be such a ladies' man." Jake laughed, holding his son, sitting on the foot of my bed. I held Alexis, watching her little fist open and close, feeling that warm, fuzzy feeling in my chest.

"They're so beautiful…"

"Yeah, and they're our children. We made them. I don't regret it, do you?"

"Never."

I'd never regret getting pregnant out of wedlock and having kids at sixteen. And neither would Jake.
