A month later -

Amber -

"Baby this place is so gorgeous," I said as I looked around my new tutoring center in awe. Jayceon had been telling me that he was going to fix the shop up for me, I knew he would because he was so determined for me to reach my goals. He was more determined and excited than me.

I looked around, he had my designs down to a T. As soon as you walked in there was a mini desk, and a waiting area with four yellow shares aligned. He had installed beige looking carpet, and a light yellow paint was painted on the walls.

There were few decorations of inventors and scientist. Activists, Like Malcolm X, Rosa Parks, Dr. King, Oprah Winfrey, Barack and Michelle Obama, and Albert Einstein. There were motivational quotes as well.

Each one of my degrees were framed behind the desk. A picture of me, Jayceon and the kids were hanging up also. As you walked further inside there were a few book shelves filled with books, computers, a few tables, and chairs.

There was a bathroom for male and female, even the bathrooms looked nice, with its black and white decor. A beige couch sat against the wall near a small coffee table that had magazines on top. There were two printers and two copy machines. I was so proud of this place. Jayceon took me to the back and there a spacious office that I could definitely get used to working in.

"Baby this is so beautiful oh my god thank you baby thank you," I said smiling at him from ear to ear.

"You welcome baby, you know I had to do it big for you, I'm so proud of you,"

"Thank you baby, trust me I am going to work my ass off everyday and show you just how much I love this place,"

"It is beautiful,"

"I'm glad you love it baby but don't over work yourself too much we still gotta have these babies," he said as we laughed.

"Baby I'm so ready for them to make their little arrivals," it was like I spoke too soon, I felt a pain ripple from my body, and moments later water began to drip from my legs.

"Jayce," I said holding onto his arms.

"What's wrong baby?" He asked me.

"I need to get to the hospital like now!" I said as I felt more water began to leak. He helped me to the car and I'm a matter of seconds I was being pulled onto a hospital bed and into an empty hospital room. They gave Jayce a gown, mask, and gloves, while the nurses put a damp towel on my forehead and prepped my breathing.

"Okay real big ones, push for me!" The doctor yelled. I began pushing and when I went to reach for Jayceon's hand he fainted at all the blood he saw. I felt like I was going to die as I held onto the bed post.

I pushed and pushed until the doctor told me he saw the head of the first baby. I pushed a few more times and out came a beautiful baby girl. On the doctors instructions I continued to push for the next baby.

I began to loose too much blood he warned me not to push. For a few moments I was just laying there with my legs opened as they checked my vitals. After getting the Okay I pushed the last child out, and finally I had a beautiful baby boy. With a head full of curly hair and he looked just like King. While baby girl looked just like Harlem and Jayce.

The doctor told me that my baby boy was in good health, while baby girl was healthy but she had complications with her breathing which meant she would either have bronchitis or Asthma like me, Momma, and Ashley. We spent Christmas last year in urgent care because we could barely breathe. I didn't want that for my baby girl but I said that I would do everything in my power to make sure she's well taken care of.

When Jayceon finally woke up. His first instinct was to check up on me, me, his mom, and my mom were in the room adoring the babies.

"Boy bought time you woke up," his mom laughed.

"Damn I fainted again?" He asked laughing. While he was out his mom told me how he fainted during all of the kids birth. Victoria was on her own dealing with the pain. I laughed as he shook his head.

"Boy you faint all the time," momma laughed.

"It was way too much blood mama then I saw the head," he said as we laughed.

"You over here laughing at me babe?" I laughed.

"Yes you didn't help me at all," I laughed as he kissed my lips. I had both of my babies in my arms. He kissed their foreheads and smiled.

"Lil man look just like king and princess looks like Cali," he said smiling. I kissed his cheek and he pecked my lips twice.

"I love you baby,"

"I love you too, so much,"

I decided to name them Zachary and Zoey. Since they were twins. Jayceon and the grandmas approved of the names. Ariel went to the waiting room to get Kendrick and the kids. As soon as Cali walked in her eyes lit up.

"Hi princess," I smiled as She and king climbed up on the bed.

"Hi mama,"

"This is your sister Zoey,"

"She looks like me momma," Cali cheesed.

"She does baby," I smiled.

"Can I hold her mama please I promise I won't drop her," she begged.

"Okay baby sit back," I instructed. She sat back and I placed Zoey in her arms. She smiled as she held her.

"Hi Zoe, it's me your big sister Cali," Cali said as she ran her fingers through Zoey's hair. Zoey's eyes got big and she moved around a little as she smiled at Cali. What touched my heart the most was when Zoey wrapped her little finger around Cali's.

"She knows me mama," Cali smiled

"Yeah baby and she loves you, you're her big sister it's your job to protect her princess,"

"I will mama I swear I will I won't let anybody hurt her," I looked over at Jayceon and the boys were so into Zachary. I was growing tired I let out a yawn.

"Alright y'all mama getting tired let's go upstairs to the lunch room and eat," Jayceon told the kids. The nurses came and got the twins. The kids all gave me a kiss and went out into the waiting room with Ariel and Kendrick. I said bye to my mom and Jayceon's mom.

"I love you bae get you some sleep I'll be here until it's time to go but I'll back first thing in the morning,"

"Okay I love you baby," I said sleepy like

"I love you too ," I felt him kiss my lips before I drifted off to sleep.

*******

The next morning Jayceon and the kids came back, the babies were active. Cali of course wouldn't put Zoey down, she wouldn't even let Harlem or King hold her, I had to make her let them have a turn holding her.

She pouted but eventually got over it.

The football game was on and Jayceon held Zack as he watched the game. Zack hadn't even been in the world long enough but he was trying to see where that noise was coming from.

"You trying to watch the game with daddy huh lil man? Huh?" Jayce said to him as he kissed his cheek. I smiled grabbing my book. I was getting bored in this hospital so Jayce brought me my books to keep me preoccupied.

While reading the kids drifted off to sleep and so did I. When I woke up it was time for me to eat lunch. The doctor came in shortly after and told Me and Jayce that me and the babies would be able to leave the hospital tomorrow.

"Alright baby you and the twins clothes are in the diaper bag I'll be here first thing in the morning to pick you guys up Okay,"

"Okay baby,"

"I'm going home to finish up the nursery,"

"Alright I love you,"

"I love you too,"

Jayceon -

I didn't feel like cooking so me and the kids ordered a pizza. Me and Kendrick finished getting the nursery together. The paint had finally dried up, the room no longer smelt like fresh paint either. We put the bassinets together, a baby blue one for Zack, and a light pink one of for Zoey. The room wall was painted light blue. It was Cali's idea to do some pink and decorations.

The twins name hung along the walls in wood letters. In the corner there was a rocking chair and next to it was a book shelf, that was my idea because at night I was going to keep reading to them.

"We did good bro," Kendrick said as we stood looking around.

"Yeah we did, now I can't wait to bring them home," I said smiling.

"I'm so happy for you bro,"

"Thanks man I wouldn't have all this if you hadn't of introduced me to Amber, now that the babies here we just gotta plan the wedding,"

"You sound nervous,"

"I am, this will be my second marriage, I want this one to be a little bit better than my first, I'm just ready to put in the work and show Amber that I'm serious," I said to him.

"She knows you are man, just keep doing what you do,"

"I will, but hey man I want you to be the twins god father, you've always been there and if anything ever happens to me-"

"Come on man don't think like that, I got you regardless, Amber and the kids gone be straight man,"

"Thanks bro," we dapped and went to smoke a blunt. After taking a shower, I laid down in bed. Feeling Amber's side I couldn't help that I missed her. I missed us cuddling. Grabbing my phone I called her cell. She answered on the first ring.

"Hey baby," she said.

"Hey boo what you doing?" I asked as I laid back.

"Reading, I got tired of playing these games on my phone,"

"Yeah, I miss you,"

"Aww I miss you too but I'll see you in the morning, the babies got started crying as soon you guys left I think their spoiled already especially Zoey," she laughed.

"Yeah Cali got her spoiled,"

"Yeah and I just can't put Zack down, that's my buddy," I smiled.

"Your mom showed me some of your baby pictures Jack looks just like you did when you were little, but he's the spitting image of King, The eyebrows, those cute little ears," she said as laughed.

"Yeah, I can't wait until you come home though, give you some of this loving,"

"That loving is why I'm in this hospital bed right now," she said as we laughed.

"Daddy is that momma?" Cali asked.

"Yeah baby,"

She jumped in bed with me with King in tow, I put Amber on speaker.

"Hey momma!" They both said in unison.

"Hi babies,"

"Where's Zoe?" Cali asked. Harlem came in the room and got in the bed.

"There in the NICU, the nurse came a few minutes ago,"

"Did you eat dinner ma?" Harlem asked

"Yeah I had some chicken and vegetables it was nasty," she said as they laughed.

"Was it like daddies cooking?" King asked laughing.

"Hey," I said as I tickled him.

"No daddies cooking is better," she laughed.

"Thank you babe,"

"I can't wait until Zoe comes home I wanna learn how to feed her and Change her mama," Cali said.

"I'll show you baby,"

"Alright y'all lets let mama get some sleep,"

"I love you mama" Cali said.

"I love you too baby,"

"Night mama," the boys said.

"Goodnight boys be good,"

"We will see you in the morning,"

"Bye,"

I hung up and the kids decided to sleep in bed with me. We watched a movie until we all fell sleep.
