Once Upon A Straight Tequila Night

Ch 26- Learning The Sex Of The Babies

Penelope's POV

I am so excited, today is the day we get to find out the sex of the babies, I rub my stomach and say, "good morning my doves, momma and daddy love you all so much". Derek walks into the room and says, "you look beautiful in that dress goddess", I look down and say, "I look like a beached whale my love but you know that they say love is blind", Derek laughed as he handed me a cup of tea.

I smile and say, "thank you handsome", he winks at me and says, "anything for you goddess", we sit down at the table and I look at him and "handsome you still haven't told me what you hope we are having". Derek intertwines fingers with me and says, "baby the only thing I want is three happy and healthy babies, the sex doesn't matter".

I smile and say, "I'm the same way handsome, as long as they all have 10 little fingers and 10 little toes and are happy and healthy that is all I could ever want". He brings my hand to his lips and gently kisses it and says, "you are the love of my life and I can't wait for our little ones to be born baby girl".

Derek winks at me and says, "damn baby girl the things you are making my body do", I laugh and say, "well maybe later we can explore your body", he grins and says, "I will hold you to that sweetness". I laugh and say, "well handsome it is only an hour before our appointment so we better get started because you know how traffic is early in the day".

Derek's POV

I walk into the room and see Penelope rubbing her stomach, she is talking to the babies, I grin as I hear her say, "good morning my doves, momma and daddy love you all so much". I say, "you look beautiful in that dress goddess", she looks down at herself and says, "I look like a beached whale my love but you know that they say love is blind", I laugh as I hand her a cup of tea.

She smiles and says, "thank you handsome", I wink at her and say, "anything for you goddess", we sit down at the table and she looks at me and says, "handsome you still haven't told me what you hope we are having". I intertwine fingers with her and say, "baby the only thing I want is three happy and healthy babies, the sex doesn't matter".

She smiles and says, "I'm the sam way handsome, as long as tjey all have 10 little fingers and 10 little toes and are happy and healthy that is all I could ever want". I bring her hand to my lips and gently kiss it and say, "you are the love of my life and I can't wait for our little ones to be born baby girl".

I wink at her and say, "damn baby girl the things you are making my body do", she laughs and says, "well maybe later we can explore your body", I grin and say, "I will hold you to that sweetness". Penelope laughs and says, "well handsome it is only an hour before our appointment so we better get started because you know how traffic is early in the day".

Penelope's POV

I waddle into the doctors office and sit down as Derek signs me in, I rub my rounded belly and smile as Derek walks over and puts my hand in his and says, "are you alright baby girl"?, I grin and say, "I am more than fine my love, more than fine". We both look up as the doctor calls my name, Derek stands up and helps me to my feet and we follow the doctor down the hall.

Once we get inside the room she smiles and says, "I need you to lay down on the table and raise your shirt up for me", Derek helps me up on the table and he laughs as I lay down. I raise my shirt up and Dr. Smith picks up the gel and says, "this is going to be cold Penelope", she then squirts the gel on my stomach and I say, "ohhhhhh that's cold".

Derek puts his hand in mine and gently squeezes it as Dr. Smith turns on the machine, she looks at us and says, "are you ready to see if the babies are turned the right way so we can tell what you are having"?, we both laugh and say, "yes" in unison. She puts the wand on my stomach and starts rubbing it across and soon the room is filled with SWOOSH SWOOSH SWOOSH.

Derek's POV

We walk into the doctors office and Penelope sits down as I sign her in, I watch as Penelope rubs her rounded belly, she siles at me as I walk over and put my hand in hers and ask, "are you alright baby girl"?, she grins and says, "I am more than fine my love, more than fine". We both look up as the doctor calls Penelope's name, I stand up first and help Penelope to her feet and we follow the doctor down the hall.

Once we get inside the room the doctor smiles and says, "I need you to lay down on the table and raise your shirt for me", I help her up on the table and I laugh as she lays down. Penelope raises her shirt up and Dr. Smith picks up the gel and says, "this is going to be cold Penelope", she then squirts the gel on Penelope's stomach and she says, "ohhhhh that's cold".

I put my hand in hers and gently squeeze it as Dr. Smith turns oon the machine, she looks at us and says, "are you ready to see if the babies are turned the right way so we can tell what you are having", we both laugh and say, "yes" in unison. Dr. Smith puts the wand on Penelope's stomach and starts rubbing it across and soon the room is filled with SWOOSH SWOOSH SWOOSH.

Penelope's POV

I smile as Dr. Smith turns the screen around and says, "right here is baby A", she moved the wand a little and said, "here is baby B", she moved the wand just a little farther and said, "and here is baby C". Derek kisses my hand and says, "are they all ok"?, she smiles and says, "they all seem perfect, their all have strong heart rates and seem to be the right size for their gestational growth".

I look at her and say, "are they turned so that we can see what we are having"?, she smiles and says, "yes, yes they are", Derek squeezes my hand as we hear, "baby A is a little girl". I laugh and say, "ohhhhhh a little girl Derek, we're having a little girl", Dr. Smith says, "baby B also appears to be a little girl".

Derek and I both watch as she moves to the final baby, she smiles and says, "baby C is, well baby C is a boy, congratulations you two, you are having two little girls and a little boy" wow I can't believe it 2 girls and a boy, now that we know what we are having we can get to painting that beautiful nursery that Derek, my brothers, Hotch, Reid and Rossi all did for us.
