Performance

It was Christmas-time in the world above. Marty sat at the piano as she gave a musical performance to all who lived in the lair below. Olivia was there, holding her adorable baby boy. Caleb was seated next to his wife and child.

Todd and Victor watched with pride as their very pregnant wife continued to play. Her fingers glided over the keys as she played with such grace. After the music had ended, Marty stood up to receive her applause. She had barely rose to her feet when a contraction struck her. The little one she carried would be coming right on time.

Seeing the look of painful surprise on her face, Todd knew immediately what was troubling her. He rushed to Marty's side and took her into his arms. "Is it the baby?" he asked.

Victor appeared on her other side as he looked at her in concern. "Are you in labor?" he asked.

All Marty could do was nod as gasps broke out over the crowd. "You sure know how to end a performance," Todd stated with a smirk.

Victor chuckled as he lifted Marty into his embrace. "Let's go make you comfortable," he said. He snuggled Marty against his chest as he carried her away toward their bedroom. "I think we are going to have a baby tonight."

"I will deliver," Todd stated as Victor lay Marty down on their bed.

"Are you ready for this, sweetheart?" Victor asked as he placed a tender kiss on Marty's brow.

Marty nodded. "I am very ready," she answered as Todd was helping her change into a thin cotton nightie. "I can't wait to meet our new baby girl or boy."

Todd grinned. "You never know, it may be twins again."

Victor repeated Todd's words to him. "Only time will tell."
