Stefan

I don't leave her side as we may our way into the hospital, Elena refused to go by ambulance, Marcel had his partner Thierry take us to the maternity ward. I text Damon and Bonnie letting them know that she's safe, they're on their way. "Are you nervous?" Elena asks while we wait for the doctor to call us back. I put my arm around her while kissing her head, I promise to kiss her every fucking day. "Yes and no." I respond looking down into her tired eyes, did they let her sleep? "Explain." I take her hand into mine linking our fingers together. "Yes because I'm hoping they're both perfectly fine and no because I am excited to see our creations." A smile spreads across her face, "You have no idea how happy I am to be back with you Stefan. I kept thinking a million things, I didn't know if you were dead or not. If you were out looking for me." I wipe away her tears and bring her lips to mine, "I'm not letting you out of my sight ever again."

"Good, because there is no where I'd rather be." She whispers against my lips before kissing me. "Elena Pierce." I chuckle, "We need to change that soon." We follow the nurse into a room where women are being weighed and having their blood drawn. "I agree." She purrs into my ear making me shudder. "Alright miss Pierce, up on the scale." She stands on the scale weighing herself, "Do you know how much you weighed before finding out you were pregnant?" Elena steps down and twists her lips thinking, "I would have to say about 115 pounds." The woman nods clearing her throat, "Well then you have gained 15 pounds, its normal. Just make sure you're eating and drinking right as well as taking your prenatal vitamins, Dr. Conrad will talk to about more of that." Elena sighs and takes the cup she is offered, "Alright sweetie, the bathroom is right there, take this wipe and go front to back. There is a marker in there, write your name on the cup when your done place it in the window and come back in here so we can take your blood pressure and draw some blood."

Elena smiles and turns to look at me, "Be back soon." I nod watching her walk away, "Come on dad, I'll show you where you can wait." I follow the older woman into a room, I sit down and close my eyes while leaning my head against the wall. I'm going to be a father, I have two babies on the way and I have no idea what we're getting into. It hurts knowing that the first chance at being a dad was ripped away from me even though I didn't know and I can only imagine how Elena must've felt. Yet we've been blessed this time with two, I have a feeling that its going to be a damn chore taking care of two infants at one time, but it will be worth it. "Hey you." I open my eyes looking up to Elena and the nurse, she holds out her and for me to take. I get up and we follow the nurse down a hallway and into a exam room. "Dr. Conrad will be in shortly, go on an take your clothes off and get on the bed." Elena cringes and I raise an eyebrow at her, she mouths pap smear, I internally cringe now.

After speaking with Dr. Conrad and having my pap done, Stefan and I are taken into a ultra sound room. My heart is beating 90 to nothing, Stefan leans over kissing my cheek. "Everything is going to be fine baby." He gives me a reassuring smile and my heart flutters. "Hi miss Pierce, my name is Valerie Tulle, I am the ultra sound tech. I'll need you to get undressed, since you're not far along we're going to have to do this vaginally." I let out a pent up breath and walk into the small bathroom and change into the gown she gave me. Once I'm done I walk out to see her giggling at Stefan, I fold my arms over my chest and watch the two of the carry on like teenagers. I'm in no mood for this obnoxious behavior, I've been locked away in a fucking apartment for the past three weeks thanks to a psycho. I'm fucking hungry and want to sleep. I clear my throat and raise a brow, Stefan and this Valerie chick turn to look at me, she tries to catch her breath. "Oh miss Pierce I am so sorry, Stefan and I know each other."

Seriously is there one fucking bitch in this whole city that he doesn't know? "Oh really, was the connection not made until I went into the bathroom?" Both of their faces drop at my bitchy tone, Stefan makes his way over to me, "I didn't catch her name at first, when she turned around and I saw her face I knew who she was." I walk away from him and get onto the table, "Can we do this? I'm really tired and extremely hungry." Valerie nods and moves her to her rolling stool. I place my feet in the stirrups and turn to look at the flat screen TV that's mounted on the wall. Stefan comes to stand beside me, he holds my hand and I look back to him with a small smile, he smiles back, but there is a scared look in his eyes. "Alright let's listen to the heart beats." Valerie's British accent floats into my ears and I close my eyes, what was her and Stefan's relationships to one another? I shake my thoughts and look up to the screen. "Hear that mom and dad?" That's your babies' heart beats, they're very strong."

Tears slip from my eyes as we gaze up to the screen, "There is baby A and there is baby B." Stefan leans over kissing me over and over again. "That's our babies." He whispers against my lips, I kiss him hard not caring that there is someone else in the room with us. "You're due date is September 24th." I nod my head wiping my tears away, "I was told that a few weeks ago, so that puts me at 9 weeks exactly right?" Valerie types out a few things and prints our babies' first pictures. "That's right." Stefan looks at the pictures and has his own tears prick his eyes, "I can't wait to go show Damon and Bonnie." I stand from the bed and my heart skips a beat. "They're here?" He chuckles, "Yeah they've been here since the accident happened. The hospital found my emergency contact when I was taken to the ER that night, your brother and Bonnie have been here ever since." I fly into the bathroom and get back into my clothes in a hurry, I need to see my family!

We rush out of the room and go to the small window where I am asked if I want to keep Dr. Conrad and make another appointment. I decline and let them know that I have a OBGYN, I give them my information and they're sending it to my clinic. I have to make my own appointment, but at least they'll already have everything they need. When we walk out into the waiting room Bonnie squeals and runs to me, "Does this mean what I think it does?" I giggle at her, of course Bonnie is the one to ask about me being pregnant before seeing if I am ok first. "Yes, Stefan and I are expecting." She pulls me into a hug and rocks me back and forth. "Oh. My. God! I get to be aunt Bonnie, Charlotte is going to have a cousin!" Damon laughs and I make my way into his arms. "Hey big brother." I whisper. Damon chuckles and hugs me tightly, "Don't scare me like that again." I wipe my new tears away and nod. "I won't I promise." Stefan clears his throat, "Would you like to see the new additions?"

Bonnie's head snaps up and her eyes bug out, "Additions? As in two or more?" Stefan smiles handing her the sonogram picture, "As in two." He tells her, Bonnie covers her mouth and she blinks away tears. "Damon look, there's our nieces!" I shake my head and look to her, "We don't know what they are yet Bon." Damon waves me off, "Come on Elena, we all know Bon Bon has her witchy ways about her. If she says they're girls, then you're having girls." Stefan looks like he's going to pass out, I walk to him giving him a hug. "Knowing Stefan's track record with women, I'd say yeah he's going to be getting his pay back with having daughters." Damon snorts shaking his head, "That sounds about right." We make our way outside, Damon runs to get the car while Bonnie is bouncing with excitement, Stefan pulls me into his chest his chin resting on my shoulder. "I love you so fucking much." I lean back into him, "I love you too." He begins kissing my neck and I melt, "Just so you know, I lost my virginity to Valerie and then she left me. There is nothing there for me, everything I love and want is right here." Stefan whispers to me placing his hands onto my barely there bump. "I fucking love you too babe." I whisper back to him.
