A month later it was Stella's fourth month of pregnancy. The day they find out what the baby was going to be.
Mac and Stella left work early and went to the hospital. The doctor told her to lay on the bed. Mac grasped hold of her hand.
"Everything will be okay."
The doctor did what he had to do.
"It seems like you guys are going to have twins."
"OMG, really?" Stella asked and turned to Mac, who was speechless.
"Twins, are you sure doctor?"
"Yes, you guys ready to know the sex of the babies."
"Good ahead," Mac told him worried and he gulped.
"Well, one is a girl… and the other is…" he pauses.
"Hurry and tell us, I don't think we can wait any longer."
"The other baby is going to be… a boy."
Mac and Stella look at each other in shock.
"I'll leave you two alone to talk, and don't worry you guys will be great parents." The doctor told them and he left.
"I can't believe this Mac, twins… how can we handle that?"
"I don't know Stell, I'm just as worried as you."
"I know Mac, this just got two times harder."
Mac nods and kisses her hand that he was still holding onto. "We'll make it through this though, I promise, I'm not going anywhere."
Stella smiled with tears rolling down her face, "I know Mac, we are together until death do us part."
"Good to hear you feel the same."
"Of course I do, ready to go back to the lab and tell everyone the news."
Mac nods his head and they go back to the lab.
They first run into Lindsay.
"Hey guys, how did the thing go?"
"Good, but we want to tell everyone at once."
"Okay, I'll go get everyone and meet you guys in your office."
The two nods and Lindsay rushes off and they head to their office.
Minutes later everyone came in, and looked at Mac and Stella, who were holding hands tightly.
"Well first we wanted to say that everything went well…" Mac started. "And here's the real news, we're having twins."
Everyone looked surprised.
"It was a shock to us too, we're having a boy and a girl," Stella smiled.
"OMG, you guys that's awesome," Lindsay smiled.
"That's great news," Don smiled and all the guys hugged Mac and Stella. "Angell would have been proud."
"We know she would," Stella told him giving him a hug.
"Now, what do you want for the names?" Danny asked.
"We have a lot of time to think about that," Stella told them while looking at Mac.
"Okay everyone, go get back to work, play times over," Mac said in his boss voice.
Everybody nodded and left, except Adam.
"Try Adam for a name," he smiles.
"That's going to be up to me and Mac, Adam, but thanks for the thought," she told him and he left.
"Adam Taylor, he's kidding right?"
"I hope so, so what do you think would be good names?"
"I don't know Stell, if I had a kid before I wouldn't know what to name it."
"We need to start with the basics."
A few hours of thinking of the babies' names was filled with laughter.
"Here's what we aren't going to do, name them after our co-workers."
"You got that right Mac. I was always fond of the name Rebecca."
"Hmm… Rebecca Taylor doesn't sound so bad actually," Mac smiles.
"Yeah has a nice ring to it. Here's the deal I should name the girl and you should name the boy."
"Sounds fair. I might name the boy after my dad."
"They should both have something Greek about their name."
"I guess Stella, you should put some of your Greek background in the names."
"We're going to have a great family, aren't we?"
"Of course Stella," he smiles and kisses her. "Your lips taste so good."
"So do yours Detective Taylor?"
"How about we stop with the names and take a little break?"
"Okay, what coffee would you like?"
"Not that," he smiles.
"Come on Mac, we're at work."
"Fine, black coffee two sugars."
"Of course, anything for you my dear," she got up from Mac's lap, but he still held onto her hand. "If you want coffee your going to have to let go."
He kisses her hand and then lets go. She blushes and goes to the coffee room.
She sees Lindsay sitting by herself.
"How's the naming going?"
"Good, didn't make much process."
"What do you got so far?"
"Me and Mac are going to keep them secret until we have them."
"Good idea… oh and Stella, nobody bought the apartment on top of ours yet. The landlord says nobody is wanting to get it. He keeps on asking if we want it, so I told him that you wanted it."
"But, I don't want to get it yet."
"Yeah, he says whenever you stop by he'll give you the papers."
"Okay great, thanks, well I should be getting back to Mac."
"Yeah your hubby," she smiles and Stella gets the coffee and goes back to the office.
Mac was sitting at the desk looking frustrated. She hands him his coffee.
"Thanks."
"Mac, is something the matter?"
"Yeah, we can't have twins and live in our apartment."
"We should talk about it," she sighs sitting in the chair in front of the desk.
"I just had so many memories of the place… I don't want to see it go," he said tears forming in his eyes.
She gets up and stands behind Mac.
"It'll be okay, I was like this when I moved to your place."
"But this is different Stell, I had this place a few months before Claire past and… I don't want to leave it."
He got up and embraced Stella in a hug.
They were quiet for what felt like hours, Stella released.
"I'll be with you every step of the way… I promise. Claire wouldn't want to see you like this Mac, she would want you to be happy."
"I know, it's just going to be hard is all."
"We'll get through this I swear."
He nods and pulls her into a very passionate kiss.
