A few weeks pass.
Lucy's pov:
?) "Alright if you don't mind getting up on the chair and lifting your shirt up please."
I did just that
?) "Hi Mrs.Bradford, I'm Dr.Hinnard. I will be taking care of you today. Is this your first appointment?"
I nod
She put a cold gel on and moved the wand around.
It took Dr.Hinnard a few minutes to say anything. My worry started to grow. Just then Tim could notice and he held my hand tighter.
Dr.Hinnard) "Well Mom and Dad looks like you are about 7 weeks along. Your little ones are about the size of a blueberry!"
Wait? Excuse me!?
I look over to Tim and he also has his jaw dropped. I now notice he's looking at the wall where a picture is projected
Dr.Hinnard) "Yes!! Congratulations y'all are having Twins!!"
She tilts the computer monitor to show us different parts of our babies.
Lucy) "Oh my gosh!! What!!?"
Dr.Hinnard) "I'll step out for a few minutes to print your papers that a nurse will hand you. Your next appointment is in 5 weeks. Congratulations again!"
She leaves the room
Tim hugs me tight on the table I look up at his face and we both have happy tears in our eyes.
Tim) "Luce!!! What in the world! That's crazy but I'm so happy!!"
I totally forgot that Tim has an Aunt who's a twin
Lucy) "I'm still shocked!! They don't run in my family so it must be from your side!"
We still haven't told anyone yet so we are beyond thrilled! There's definitely a good chunk of people we have to tell. We decided to tell Tamara first since she was basically like our daughter and since Celina lives with her we are gonna tell both of them. As soon as we stepped out of the elevator doors we came in contact with John in uniform Ahhh
John Nolan) "Oh hey you two. Everything okay?"
I quickly hide the sonogram I was holding behind me.
Tim) "Yeah. Yep. Everything's all good. What are you doing here?"
John. Oviously weirded out have us a suspicious look.
John) "Coming to check on an assault victim but they should be alright."
Lucy) "Cool, well we're gonna head out. Nice seeing ya"
John) "Yeah...you too."
The sonogram pictures were so thin and light I didn't realize I dropped them upside down out of my bag when I shoved them in a few seconds ago.
John saw something on the ground and picked it up.
John) "Hey! Think you guys dropped something. This yours?"
He turned them around and his eyes went wide as he saw what was on it and the name up top that read "Lucy Chen Bradford"
John) "WAIT!? This is y'all's!?!! Are y'all pregnant!?"
I nodded excitedly And Tim smiled
Lucy) "Sorry we didn't mean for you to find out this way. That's what we were doing up there. The ultrasound for the babies."
John's jaw dropped
John) "Wait??? Babies?"
He looked back at the sonogram and saw 2 babies
John) "Oh my gosh guys! Twins! Thats so amazing! I need hugs right now!"
He hugged me and gave a man hug to Tim that included a big pat on the back.
John) "Y'all are gonna be the greatest parents I just know it!.. wish I could stay more but I gotta get back to work."
He handed me the sonogram back
Tim) "We understand."
John) "Congratulations again! Keep me updated!"
And with that he was headed to a different floor on the elevator. ——————————————————
On the way to Tamara and Celina's place we decided on who we wanted to be Godparents, and since we both didn't have many or no siblings at all we wanted to give them some none biological Aunt and uncles.
Apart from Genny being a biological Aunt we decided on Angela, Tamara and Celina. Even though Tamara is kinda a daughter she would probably act more like an aunt to them. We also decided on Gray, and Wesley for Uncle's and on John and Bailey as god parents if anything we're to happen to us.
Tim's pov:
We arrive at the door of Lucy's old apartment and I look at her
Tim) "You ready to do this!?"
We both smiled and she nodded but In her eyes I can see the emotions. This was her home. For many many years through the worst times of her life. I can't imagine what memories it brings up.
I wrap her up in a tight hug and she lets out a sigh of relief.
She's wipes the corner of her teary eyes
Lucy) " I really needed that... Thank you."
I smile slightly
Tim) "it's not too late. I can ask if they can meet us at a coffee shop or something."
Lucy shook her head
Lucy) " No it's all good"
Tim) "Okay well I'm here for you."
She squeezed my arm as I knocked on the door and covered up the peep hole so they'd be surprised.
Tamara) "Coming!!"
Lucy whispers to me) "I wonder if Tamara's boyfriend is over, then we'd tell him too!"
I shrugged as the door opens and Tamara answered
Tamara) "Oh my gosh!! Celina! It's Tim and Lucy! Hello how are you guys!!!?? You guys decided to pop by for a surprise visit?"
Celina and Tamara took turns hugging us and let us in to sit on their couch.
Lucy) "Yes! I hope you guys don't mind! We'll be quick!"
Celina) "No not at all! Make y'all selves at home!"
Tamara was eyeing the two boxes stuck in my purse.
Tim) "We went to the store the other day and saw some things and thought of y'all!"
I handed both of the ladies a box
Lucy) "Ok on the count of 3 you guys can open it at the same time. 1.......2.......3!!!"
They open the boxes happily and spend a few seconds trying to understand what this onesie they were both gifted meant.
Celina's jaw drops and Tamara jumps up in her chair
Tamara) "SHUT UP!!! Are you serious!??"
Celina) "Oh My Gosh. I knew it. I can just sense her pregnancy presence!"
We both snicker and roll our eyes at her comment.
Celina and Tamara are jumping up and down on the couches like little toddlers it's entertaining.
I couldn't help but laugh
Lucy's pov:
Celina and Tamara) "We're gonna beee AUNT'S!!!!!"
Lucy) "TO TWINS"
I shout so they can hear over their chanting.
Tamara) "ha. Ha. Very funny. You guys really need to stop messing wi-..."
Tamara looks over to me as I held the sonogram clearly showing 2 tiny babies
Tamara starts getting teary eyed and they both come over to hug us
Celina) "What!? Really?!"
I nod and smile
Tamara) "What the heck I'm so happy for y'alllll."
She continues to cry tears of joy and they take turn staring at the sonogram while we watch them from the couch.
I lean my head on Tim's and move my hand to my stomach. as we fill the girls in ——————————————————
Lucy's Pov:
A few hours later we had planned a couple retreat at a cabin with Nyla & James, Angela & Wesley and Tim and I. No kids (besides the ones i'm' growing) We thought it would be a blast and a relaxing weekend and a perfect time to tell them I'm pregnant.
We decided to have a movie night so we all got changed and grabbed popcorn. I walk out of Tim and I'd suite wearing a comfy shirt that says "Twin Mama"
Tim signals me to come in the living room and right before I sit down Nyla glances at my shirt fast and not enough time to read it
Nyla) "I like your shirt Luce."
Lucy) "Aw thanks. What do you like about it?"
Nyla glances back and her eyes get wide. Angela looks and starts screaming
Wesley) "TWINS?!!"
James) " Congratulations! That's insane!"
Angela about tackles Tim
Angela) " My 2 BFF's are having 2 BFF's!!!!!"
Nyla) "Y'all! I'm so excited for you 3... Wait! I mean you 4! Holy crap you guys are multiplying fast.."
They all join us in a group hug while the men pat Tim on the back and the girls crowd me.
Angela) "Welcome to the Mommy club! I love you both!! I love you 4!"
Tim smiles widely
Tim) "we love you too Ange" ——————————————————
Tim and Lucy sat on their private cabin balcony sipping on their lemonades
Lucy's pov:
I look over at Tim and he's gazing out into the beautiful scenery with the brightest eyes
Lucy) "Thank you..."
Tim looked over at me
Tim) "For what?-"
Lucy) "for doing life with me"
Tim) "-doing my job?
We both chuckled and smiled
He kissed me and we continued sipping our drinks. ——————————————————
