She slowly walked in, or waddled in I should say. She wore a red summer dress which hugged her bump perfectly and hovered over her aching knees. As she approached Nick, she took her glasses off and set it on the very tip of her head. She hung her Luis Vuitton purse down by her side and set it down on the nearby table.
"Hey." She said then leaned in for a hug. Nick saw what she was about to do so he stuck his hand out. Looking down at his inviting hand, she held onto it and shook it. "Thanks for finally coming ." She smiled. "Sure." He simply said. "Let's sit down." She suggested. They each sat down in the waiting room chairs. Silence became the tension in the room.
"So how've you been?" She asked. "Oh I don't know. I was just starting to enjoy my new life with my fiance and my kids and the rest of my family when my crazy ex called me to tell me that she's pregnant. How do you think I've been?" He said sarcastically. "I wasn't the one that cheated." She said. He tightened his jaw and leaned closer to her. "You drugged my drink and you know it." He said through his clenched teeth. That caused a smirk on her condescending face.
"Jonas." Called the nurse holding the clipboard. "That's us, come on." She said standing up and grabbing her purse from the table. Nick sighed and stood up. He followed the two females into the office. "Have a seat Mrs. Jonas." The nurse said. "No, no, no, she's not Mrs. Jonas." Nick said. "Although I do like the sound of that." Said Olivia as she sat down in the chair. "I'm sorry I just assumed.." The nurse said. "Well you assumed wrong. Look can we just get this over with." He said impatient. The nurse scoffed and rolled her eyes as she slipped on her gloves. "Is this the father?" She asked Olivia. "Yes." She said. "Well we're not sure yet." He jumped in. "Good luck with him." The nurse said then grabbed her supplies.
"This is my first sonogram." Olivia said as the nurse applied the gel to the wand. "Why did you wait?" Nick asked. "Because I wanted us to see our baby together, silly." She said. "Okay you ready Olivia?" The nurse asked. She sighed and gave her a nod. The nurse took the wand and slowly shoved it up her uterus. "Oh my God." Nick said covering his eyes. They never did this with Selena. It must have hurt for Olivia, but then again she was used to it...
"Nick look, our baby." Olivia said in excitement. His fingers slowly parted from his eyes. He looked over at the screen to see a fully developed baby. "Would you like to know the sex?" The nurse asked. "Yes." Olivia said. "It's a.. boy. Congratulations." She smiled. Olivia held Nick's hand and looked him in the eyes. "It's a boy. He's going to look just like you." She said.
He looked down at their hands and sighed. It was all coming real to him. She was having his baby.
He sighed again and let go of her hands. "Uh Oh." The doctor said. "What?" Nick and Olivia said. "Looks like you're having twins!" She said as she moved the stick around. The monitor showed two babies moving around in her tummy. "WHAT?!" Yelled Nick, shocked in every possible way. "Yes, and this baby is a girl. Congratulations." Smiled the Nurse. Olivia looked at the monitor in shocked. She cupped her mouth as tears escaped her eyes. This was not the plan she had in mind.

5AM
"Morning." Selena said as she yawned. She made her way over to the fridge and opened it, searching for what she came in the kitchen for. "Hey sweetie. How are you feeling?" Denise asked. "Exhausted." She said as she grabbed the bottle of orange juice then closing the fridge. "I offered to help last night and you wouldn't let me help you." She said in an 'I told you so' manner. Selena sighed and grabbed a glass. "I really needed your help but the first few weeks I'm trying to let the twins bond with me and Nick first." Selena said as she poured some orange juice into her glass.
"Speaking of Nick, has he called you yet?" Denise asked. Selena turned to her. Denise could see the tiredness on her face. "No." She sighed then took a sip of her drink. "I did tell him to call me to make sure his flight was safe. I guess he's just busy at work.." Selena added. "Awe, sweetie.." Denise pouted then rubbed her daughter's back. "Should I call him?" She asked. "What you need to do right now is sleep, I'll watch the babies. Then when you wake up you should call him." Denise suggested. Selena nodded in agreement.
"You should go now before Demi and Dani come with the girls. They will talk and talk and talk." She chuckled. Selena smiled at the thought of her soon to be sister in laws. They were talkers. "Alright go back to bed." She shooed her. Selena walked up the stairs and into her room. She checked on the twins who were now fast asleep. She then crawled into the warm and cozy bed, covering herself with the sheets. Soon enough she was well asleep. As for Denise, she was worried. Selena was a new mother and Nick is a new father. She believed that he should be there helping out. She sighed and picked up the phone, she had to call her son.

"You okay?" Olivia asked. They sat across from each other in a diner. The same diner he brought Selena to lunch to be exact. He combed his hand through his thick curls and looked up at her. "Okay? Okay? How do you think I'm feeling right now?" He said through his gritted teeth. She looked at him in silence, taken back. "My crazy ex girlfriend is pregnant with twins and she claims they're mine. Not to mention that I'm engaged to the woman of my dreams and she just had our babies, another set of twins. How do you think I'm feeling Olivia?" He said with anger.
She continued to stare at him. She looked down at her feet and sighed. "Look Nick, we didn't plan this, it happened. We're having twins." She smiled. He gave a fake chuckle and said, "You know damn well that you planned this. You're trying to ruin my life." He said. "I'm ruining your life? I'm not the one that had twins with some dumb bitch." She said referring to Selena. "Oh but I'm going to when you go into labor." He remarked and chuckled his coke.
She sighed in frustration at his insult. "Waiter! We need a waiter!" She said yelling. Everyone in the diner practically turned their heads to see where that annoying voice was coming from. In a matter of seconds a waitress made her way over. "I'm sorry we're a little busy today." She said then grabbing her pen. "It's fine Candace." Nick smiled at his favorite waitress. "Oh hey Nick." She smiled. "Hey, how's your baby?" He asked. "Well he's not a baby anymore I'll tell you that." She giggled. "Well tell the little man I said hi." He said smiling. Olivia watched, annoyed, as they continued on with their conversation.
"Ah hello? Pregnant woman starving out of her mind here." Olivia snapped at her. The two instantly stopped talking. "Right, sorry. What can I get you?" She asked with a fake smile. "Get me a Cesar salad without the chicken and a glass of water." She said. "Olivia you have to eat more than that, you're eating for three." Nick said concerned. She rolled her eyes and said, "I'll be fine Nick." Nick scoffed and looked at Candace. "Put extra chicken in there please." Nick said. "Okay and you'll have the regular?" She said writing it all down. "You know it." He smiled at her. "Okay it should be about twenty minutes." She said as she collected the menus.
"If my food isn't here in fifteen minutes I'm calling the manager okay princess?" Olivia said and rolled her eyes. "Olivia." Nick said angrily. He then turned to Candace and said, "Don't mind her okay." She nodded and whispered in his ear. "I'm used to rude customers but never like this before. I like the other chick better." She said referring to Selena. Nick chuckled at her and said, "She's only a friend." "Thank God." Candace said before leaving.
