I do not own anything from DWP I have just borrowed the characters for inspiration.
Rated M for some Mirandy time.
The week before the concert the girls were at Madison Square Garden practicing every day. Every night they came home with stories about how big the place was and how awesome it was. They described everything in detail. Miranda would sit and listen with wide eyes never letting them know she had been there multiple times.
Andréa was in awe of Miranda the Mother.
The girls were secretive of which two songs they were going to perform with Billy.
They begged and begged Miranda for outfits from Alexandra for the performance. Alexandra was thrilled to design for them. Her gift. The dresses were a strapless short with a long train. The top was white strips and the skirt thin panels of peach silk. The girls were overjoyed with them.
The day of the concert was like trying to live through an EF 5 tornado. The girls were so excited Miranda heard them running down the stairs before the knock came at the bedroom door. "Mommmm!"
Miranda rolled over and groaned. "If we make it through the day it will be a miracle."
Andréa giggled, rolled over and kissed her.
"Come in girls."
The door flew open and they ran bounding on the bed. "What are you two doing up so early on a Saturday morning?"
"Our concert is tonight!"
"Yes tonight not this morning." Miranda threw the blanket over her face.
"Girls why not settle down here while your Mothers get some more rest."
The girls crawled under the blankets and the women were able to get a couple more hours of sleep.
Then the other set of twins woke them up and Andréa climbed out of bed.
"Is everything all right Sweetheart?"
Andy turned and smiled, "I do not know who kicks more the girls or the boys. I'm going down and make some breakfast." Miranda smiled.
While Andréa made breakfast Miranda showered. When she walked back into the bedroom her bed was empty. She went down the back stairs and the girls were sitting at the island watching Andréa cook. Miranda smiled and walked up behind her love and wrapped her arms around Andréa's ever-growing belly.
"Good morning Sweetheart. How are my boys doing?" She kissed Andréa's cheek.
Andréa leaned back into Miranda's arms. "They are starving."
The girls laughed. "That is silly Andy. How do you know they are starving?"
"Because I am starving." She turned and slipped some eggs and hash browns on the twin's plates. She slid the bowl of fresh fruit towards them. Miranda grabbed some coffee and sat down by the twins.
"Mom when do we leave for the concert?"
Miranda rolled her eyes, "In ten hours."
Both girls looked at her like she had lost her mind. "What are we going to do until then?"
Miranda looked at them. That was a good question.
That afternoon Serena and Emily arrived with Isabella to do the girl's hair and make-up. They were bouncing off the walls and Serena was having a hard time settling them down.
Miranda picked up Isabella and took off. "Come on Baby girl we are going far away from this circus." She took the small child downstairs to the living room while the other three tied the girls down and turned them into little stars.
Serena tied their hair up like she did for the wedding and allowed soft curls to fall down around their face. Their make-up was way over done but once under the lights it would be perfect. The girls came down the steps and they were visions.
Miranda smile brightly, "You girls look beautiful."
The girls twirled around. "You think so Mommy?"
Miranda smiled, "I have a present from your Uncle Nigel." Miranda picked up the two boxes off the bar. "Now you must be very careful with these as they are on loan." She handed a box to each of the girls.
They opened them and squealed, "Mom."
In the boxes were identical necklaces from the Winston Petal Collection. Nothing was too good for her girls.
Serena and Emily help the girls put them on. "Miranda they complement the dresses so well."
The family took off in the limo. Roy was very proud to be taking them to the concert. Once at the Gardens they were escorted to the back of the stage. Miranda and Andréa were seated of to the side so they could watch everything.
The girls were taken back to Billy's dressing room. "Well, look at you two beautiful young ladies." The girls giggled. "Are you ready for our big show tonight?" They both nodded.
The lights went up and Billy's band began to play. The big announcement was made and Billy appeared on stage. He sang a few songs, then stepped up to center stage. "Ladies and Gentlemen. Tonight we have a very special surprise for everyone. Hopefully you all saw the documentary Fashion and the Shoot." There was a loud applause. "Well, I met two very talented young ladies while filming and I promised to let them play with me at one of my concerts and they are here tonight." Another round of applause arose and a second Grand piano was brought onto the stage. "Ladies and Gentlemen, please give a huge welcome to Caroline and Cassidy Priestly." The girls walked out and stood one on each side of Billy. Miranda and Andréa were beaming on the side. Billy took the mic and lowered it to the girls. "Would you like to say hello to the crowd?"
The girls shouted out, "Hello New York."
Billy and the band laughed and the audience shouted back, "Hello." The girls were glowing.
"I am really happy to have both of you here tonight to help me with the concert. Why don't you take your seats at the pianos and we will get started." Once the girls were settled they started to play a melody and there was thunderous applause. "The girls picked the songs we are going to do for you tonight. They told me about a family lullaby their Mother sings for them, so it was only right that this was one of the songs they choose, and Billy began to sing:
Goodnight my angel, time to close your eyes
And save these questions for another day
I think I know what you've been asking me
I think you know what I've been trying to say
I promised I would never leave you
And you should always know
Wherever you may go, no matter where you are
I never will be far away
Goodnight my angel, now it's time to sleep
And still so many things I want to say
Remember all the songs you sang for me
When we went sailing on an Emerald Bay
And like a boat out on the ocean
I'm rocking you to sleep
The water's dark and deep inside this ancient heart
You'll always be a part of me
Goodnight my angel, now it's time to dream
And dream how wonderful your life will be
Someday your child may cry, and if you sing this lullabye
Then in your heart, there will always be a part of me
Someday we'll all be gone, but lullabyes go on and on
They never die, that's how you and I will be
Goodnight My Angel (Lullaby)
Billy Joel
Billy bowed, "Let's hear it for Caroline and Cassidy."
Andy could see the tears in Miranda's eyes. She placed her hand on Miranda's and squeezed.
Billy waited for the applause to die down. "Now we are going to have a little fun with our next song since I am singing with my Uptown Girls."
The girls begin to play as the crowd roared and applauded:
Uptown girl
She's been living in her uptown world
I bet she's never had a backstreet guy
I bet her momma never told her why
Billy grabbed the mic and went over to Caroline and held out his hand.
She accepted it and he led her out to center stage and they danced while Cassidy continued to play.
I'm gonna try for an uptown girl
She's been living in her white bread world
As long as anyone with hot blood can
And now she's looking for a downtown man
That's what I am
Billy holds the mic out to Caroline as she belts out:
And when she knows what
She wants from her time
And when she wakes up
And makes up her mind
Billy continues to sing:
She'll see I'm not so tough
Just because
I'm in love with an uptown girl
You know I've seen her in her uptown world
She's getting tired of her high class toys
And all her presents from her uptown boys
She's got a choice
Billy returns Caroline to her seat and heads for Cassidy, offers his hand and dances her out to center stage as Caroline picks up the melody.
Uptown girl
You know I can't afford to buy her pearls
But maybe someday when my ship comes in
She'll understand what kind of guy I've been
And then I'll win
Billy hands the mic to Cassidy and she sings as she struts across the stage:
And when she's walking
She's looking so fine
And when she's talking
She'll say that she's mine
The audience is cheering as Billy laughs. Miranda is rolling her eyes as Andy whistles. Billy grabs the mic as Cassidy heads back to her piano.
She'll say I'm not so tough
Just because
I'm in love
With an uptown girl
She's been living in her white bread world
As long as anyone with hot blood can
And now she's looking for a downtown man
That's what I am
Uptown girl
She's my uptown girl
You know I'm in love
With an uptown girl
Uptown Girl
Billy Joel
"O.K. for our last song." The audience moans. Billy looks back to the two girls, "I think they like you. As we rehearsed for tonight I got to know the girls well. Their favorite subject of conversation was their family." Miranda closed her eyes and moaned. Andréa giggled. "And their favorite family story was about their two Moms. How they met and fell in love. So this next song is dedicated to them from Caroline and Cassidy." Billy looked off to the side and bowed:
She's got a way about her
I don't know what it is, but I know that I can't live without her
She's got a way of pleasin'
I don't know why it is, but there doesn't have to be a reason anyway
She's got a smile that heals me
I don't know why it is, but I have to laugh when she reveals me
And she's got a way of talkin'
Don't know why it is, but it lifts me up when we are walkin' anywhere
She comes to me when I'm feelin' down, inspires me without a sound
She touches me and I get turned around
Billy walked over to the side and the spotlight followed him. He takes first Andrea's hand and kisses it, then Miranda's. Ladies and Gentelmen Caroline and Cassidy's Mothers. He bows again and walks back to center stage.
She's got a way of showin'
How I make her feel and I find the strength to keep on goin'
And she's got a light around her
And everywhere she goes, million dreams of love surround her everywhere
She comes to me when I'm feelin' down, inspires me without a sound
She touches me, I get turned around
She's got a smile that heals me
I don't know why it is, but I have to laugh when she reveals me
And she's got a way about her
I don't know what it is, but I know that I can't live without her anyway
She's got a Way
Billy Joel
Billy finishes and the girls fade it out. Billy bows and then motions for the girls to once again join him on center stage. All three bow and the crowd is on its feet applauding. "Ladies and Gentlemen Caroline and Cassidy Priestly." The girls go off stage and join their Mothers at the side to finish watching the concert.
Once home the girls were stilled wired, so Miranda sent them upstairs and told them to stay there until morning so her and Andréa could get some sleep.
But once in their room Miranda could not keep her hands off Andréa. The song Billy sang for them had Miranda wound tight and she needed Andréa badly. She closed the bedroom door and pushed Andréa up against it kissing her passionately.
Andréa broke away breathing heavily, "Miranda."
Miranda caressed her face and kissed her again. "I love you Andréa, more than you can ever imagine."
Miranda led Andréa over to the bed and helped her lay down. Miranda did not even bother to remove her clothes as she was on top of Andréa in a minute. Her mouth eagerly taking possession of Andréa's, tongue pressing to get inside. The kiss so heated and so strong that Andréa could barely get her breath.
"Oh God Miranda."
Kissing had always been erotic and sensual for the couple. Had been their staple in their early romance and it remained that way for them even now.
Miranda pulled back taking Andréa's lower lip between her teeth. Miranda almost growled as her teeth scraped over Andréa's lip. As it popped out of her mouth she gazed into Andréa's eyes her chest heaving. Andréa was dyeing from all the sensations this one simple act was eliciting in her body.
Miranda leaned in and placed multiple soft kisses over Andréa's face and neck. Her hand searched for the hem of Andréa's dress and skimmed up the sides of her legs reaching for the thin piece of material now soaked from Andréa's releases. Miranda grinned, still not believing the reaction this person had to her touch. Miranda's finger slipped under the material and gently played with the swollen folds and hardened clit. This soft slow play dragged everything out and led Andréa to an explosive orgasm.
The women made love to each other until the early morning hours.
The next weekend Katherine came to show the family the babies' rooms. Katherine opened the door and Andréa was the first one in.
She turned with tears in her eyes. "Miranda."
Miranda walked in and took Andréa in her arms.
Andréa hugged Miranda tight, "It is beautiful Miranda. Thank you."
Miranda smiled as she looked around. Miranda nodded to Katherine and she left the couple alone.
"Shh Sweetheart."
Andréa sniffed, "It is all really true isn't it?"
Miranda smiled with tears in her eyes over Andréa's emotion. "Yes Sweetheart it is all true."
Andréa did not know what had come over her as she sobbed into Miranda's shoulder. Miranda ran her hands through Andréa's hair letting her cry knowing her emotions were running high. Soon Andréa calmed and she looked around again at the mural on the wall, the furniture, and the carpeting.
She went over and ran her hand over the cribs. "I still cannot believe it."
Miranda went over and stood behind her love and wrapped her arms around the ever-increasing abdomen. Miranda rubbed Andréa's belly and the boys began to respond.
Andréa laughed, "There you go again rousing them up."
Miranda kissed Andréa's neck. "I love you."
Andréa leaned back into Miranda pulling Miranda's arms tighter around her, "I love you."
