I do not own anything from DWP I just borrowed the characters for inspiration.

Miranda sat in the office waiting for Emily to show up with an update on Teen Runway.

Corinne was busy interviewing candidates for second assistant.

Miranda was contemplating her retirement with some sadness. She was going to so miss coming to Runway. Nurturing her baby watching it come to life every month. She worried, would she be able to just stay at home and help with the babies? Or would it drive her crazy. What if she had made the wrong decision?

Emily cleared her throat, "Uhm … Miranda?" Miranda startled. "We did have a meeting scheduled did we not?"

"Yes Emily please sit down."

Emily went through everything she had done. Miranda looked at all the papers and spread sheets. She was pleased with what Emily had accomplished. Next to watching Runway excel every month she enjoyed watching the young people she had mentored take off and shine in their positions, and she had started the careers of not only designers, but models, and executives.

Once done Miranda smiled, "You should be very proud of yourself Emily. You are doing a fine job."

Emily for probably the first time smiled brightly. "Thank you Miranda."

March rolled around and it was the day of the plus size shoot. This issue more than any other made Miranda extremely nervous. Plus size models featured on the cover of Runway, something no other top rated fashion magazine had ever done. Yes, Europe, and Australia has had size 12 and 14 on their cover but never in America, and never the size of Melissa. Miranda walked to the studio and Chadwick was busy setting up his stage. Miranda sat quietly in the back on one of the chairs provided.

She saw Andréa sitting on the far side of the stage with her laptop open and who looked like Queen Latifah sitting across from her. Miranda smiled Andréa had blossomed in the past year since obtaining the job in the Writing Department, she saw the big smile appear on Andréa's face then saw the woman pat her belly.

Miranda diverted her attention as she heard some commotion at the center of the stage. America was the first model out. The girl was beautiful with her long dark hair. Although she had lost weight she still had the very appealing curves Miranda was looking for. Chadwick was putting her through her paces. America had done this before Miranda could tell. The girl's movements were fluid and effortless. Miranda was pleased.

Miranda noticed movement over where Andréa was sitting and noticed Melissa settling into the chair opposite Andréa. Miranda got up and quietly went over to them. She tapped Melissa on the shoulder. Melissa turned around and Miranda offered her hand, "Hello, I would like to introduce myself, I am Miranda Priestly."

Melissa smiled, "Hello." Miranda just stood there. "I'm sorry Miranda. Oh is it O.K. to call you Miranda? I just cannot believe I am meeting you."

Miranda smiled, "You are an Oscar nominated movie star, I am the one impressed."

Melissa blushed, "I just want to thank you for doing this."

Miranda nodded, "It is my pleasure. I will leave you now with Andréa so she can finish her interview."

Miranda went back to her chair and found Nigel sitting there. She could tell Nigel was nervous too.

As they watched Adele being put through her paces Nigel commented, "The clothes are fabulous and Serena has done a splendid job on the make-up and hair. I believe we are going to pull this off Miranda."

Miranda was still not quite sure, she probably would not breathe again until the numbers came out.

Next in line was Queen Latifah. The lady really presented herself as a Queen. Miranda wondered why she did not model more often.

Miranda leaned over to Nigel, "I would like to use her more often. Find out if she would be interested."

Nigel nodded. Melissa was last in one of her designs. Melissa was in a dark blue liquid gown with a medium train, the material was encrusted with Swarovski crystals. The gown was low-cut to show cleaved. Miranda stood up. It was fabulous. There were pockets in it that Melissa would often put her hands in as she turned and beamed for the camera. Miranda then remembered the Editorial she wrote for the Stella issue:

Designers use the human body as a canvas and cloth as the paint. The lucky designers can see the picture on the canvas even before they sketch the gown. This is why couture is exclusive, distinctive and rare. The photographer is able to show the world the designer's vision. They can bring out the emotion, sexualism and love out of the body showcasing the gown. It is not the gown but the person and the gown that causes people to turn. It is the union of the two because without one there would not be a whole. The feel and sensation of high-quality material caresses a body's skin making it tingle and feel alive like the touch of a lovers kiss.

Melissa was it. She and the dress together made an unforgettable, striking pare. Melissa shined, she was going to make a memorable cover. Miranda was pleased, and went back to her office.

Miranda sat at her desk, in two and one half months it would be her and Andréa's anniversary. She had no idea what to do for Andréa. She knew they would not be able to get away for an extended vacation, but maybe … Miranda picked up her phone and dialed. When Miranda put the phone down she had a sweet smile on her face.

Mean while Andy sat combing through Google postings, and was getting increasingly frustrated. What was she going to do for their first anniversary? Everything she was looking for just did not fit Miranda's high standards, but then again some of the best times they had were when they were just holding each other. Andy thought long and hard then went back to an idea she had seen on Pinterest. Andy smiled, how fun would this be?

The construction on the door for the girl's new rooms was finally done. Katherine went to the house to meet with the family especially the girls, to see their old rooms, and to find out how they wanted to decorate the new ones.

The family took Katherine into the girl's old rooms so she could get a feel for their style.

Right away she saw Caroline as a girlie girl, she had inherited Miranda's romantic side.

Cassidy on the other hand inherited Miranda's devil beware side, she was more bold and outspoken.

They then went up to the third floor and Katherine was able to measure the rooms and sketch the lay outs of them. The rooms were big and Katherine was happy with the designs and sketches she had brought along with her. Katherine then asked to go back to the old rooms so she could get the measurements and sketch the layouts of them too.

Miranda instructed her that one room was to be a nursery for the twins and the joining room a place for her and Andréa or the nanny to sleep if need be when the babies were little. Miranda gave Katherine the name of the place they had ordered the cribs and the few pieces of furniture her and Andréa had already picked out.

Katherine smiled when she saw the name of the cribs they had chosen, "You are having boys?"

Andy grinned, "See I told you they were perfect for boys."

Miranda smiled and explained to Katherine they did not know the sex of the babies yet but Andréa insisted they were boys. She did not know what they were going to do if they turned out to be girls.

Katherine laughed, this was not the Miranda Priestly she knew about or expected to meet. This was not the Miranda Priestly whom she had talked to on the phone, who had threatened her with her career.

They then went down stairs to the kitchen table and Katherine asked the girls what they wanted for their rooms.

Caroline wanted a white iron canopy bed so they could drape thin scarves all along the top.

Cassidy knew exactly what she wanted black and white stripes like a zebra with pink added in. Or so this is what she thought she wanted until she saw some of the designs that Katherine had with her. "Wow, now I do not know what I want."

Miranda and Andréa laughed, "Girls this is going to be your bedrooms for a while so make sure you pick something you really like. I will not be changing it every year for your liking."

"We know Mom." The girls answered in unison.

Katherine was quite impressed with this, she had expected the girls to be quite spoiled and get what they wanted whenever they wanted. "Well, now that I kind of know what you both like why don't you pick out the parts you like from the sketches I have here. I will take them back with me and put a few rooms together, bring back the sketches and see if they fit with your dream rooms?"

The girls looked at each other nodded, then looked at their two Mom's. Miranda and Andréa both smiled and nodded.

"O.K." Katherine smiled stood up, "It has been a pleasure meeting you all and I look forward to making some beautiful rooms for all of you."

Miranda showed Katherine out while the other three sat at the table excitedly talking about decorating.

The afternoon was family time. They went for a walk in the park and visited the place they had let Patricia's ashes go. Miranda and Andréa watched as the girls laughed and twirled around, they stated they were dancing with Patricia and all her friends.

This brought a tear to Miranda's eye. Andréa smiled and took the lady into her arms giving her a sweet kiss on the lips, "You are such a softy."

Miranda bristled, "and it is all your fault." Andréa laughed.

Back at the townhome they played a game of Monopoly. Miranda won again but it was a close game. It was down to just Miranda and Andréa until Andy landed on Miranda's Boardwalk and Park place.

Andy fell back in agony, "I almost had you."

Miranda grinned, "Sweetheart, you will always have me."

Caroline crawled next to Andy, "Can I feel the baby?"

Andy looked at the small child and grinned, "Sure." Andy lifted her shirt and pulled the elastic of her pants down and exposed the baby bump that was growing.

Caroline caressed it, "When will we be able to feel it kick?"

"Maybe the end of the month or next month. It is different for everyone. I can feel them now. They feel like butterflies in my stomach."

Cassidy laughed, "Butterflies."

Miranda smiled at the exchange, she was glad the girls did not seem jealous of the new babies and she was going to do everything in her power to keep it that way.

Andréa was watching Miranda and the love for her just kept growing. "Miranda, sing."

Miranda snapped to. "Why?"

"I want to feel the boys move." Miranda rolled her eyes.

The girls stared at Andy and she laughed. "Every time your Mother sings or hums I can feel them move."

"Do it Mom … Please." The girls begged.

Miranda started to sing the lullaby and soon Andréa was smiling and holding her hand over the spot the twins were fluttering around. Miranda finished the song.

"Ow!"

Miranda jumped up, "Andréa what is it?"

The girls jumped back scared.

Andy laughed, "One of them just kicked me. I don't think they liked the idea of you stopping."

The girl's eyes got wide, "really?"

Miranda laughed, "Andréa I really do not think they can comprehend that."

Andréa arched an eyebrow, "Are you sure of that? They are a part of you." Miranda just smiled and rolled her eyes.
