May 9th-

It was just a few days before Jessica and Danny left for New York.

Jessica and Danny were out of the apartment and staying with Dorthy and Albert before they left. Jessica's siblings all came over to spend time with them before they head for the road. This was the last time Jessica would be able
to spend time with her siblings before the babies came and she left.

Jessica kept telling herself that she would want to come back home and visit a lot when the babies came. In reality she knew it would be too much. They'd be too small to take on a plane, and the car ride is too long. It broke Jessica's heart to leave, but she really wanted to do this for herself, Danny, and the babies. She started work on the fifteenth. Everything was happening so fast. Jessica couldn't wait.

"Do you need anything else before you leave? You may not know where the grocery stores are!" Dorthy walks quickly through the grocery store leaving Jessica behind as she wobbles slowly. Jessica becomes irritated with her mother as she rambles on.

"Mom!" Jessica yells from far away.

Dorthy paused and looked to her side, Jessica wasn't there. Dorthy turned the cart around and ran to Jessica.

"Oh my gosh, I'm sorry! Are you okay, are the babies coming?" Dorthy holds Jessica's belly as she breaths heavily.

"No, mom! I'm only thirty one weeks. You are just walking so fast." Jessica sighs

"Oh, I didn't know. I'm just trying to make sure you have everything before you leave." Dorthy looks down at the ground and tries not to cry.

"I'll be fine, I promise."

"But Jessie, i just want to make sure you are taken care of and not overwhelmed. Are you sure you don't want your dad to come out and help?"

"I'm sure mom. Danny's cousins live out there and they are going to help."

"This is all just happening so soon. My baby girl is leaving." Then, the tears start to fall. Dorthy couldn't help it.

It was just two days before Jessica would leave for New York and it made her so sad. Dorthy couldn't help but feel sick knowing Jessica would be pregnant, with twins, starting a new job, months away from her due date all while settling into her new home. She just wished that Jessica would move to Colquet and be near Dorthy so Dorthy could be there for Jessica. But she wanted Jessica to be happy. She knew that she was doing this for herself and for the babies.

"Your going to make me cry." Jessica says as she slowly begins to cry.

"I'm just going to be worried. What if I miss the babies being born and I'm not there? I'll never forgive myself."

"How about this, I'll fly you out June twenty-fifth. Only a few days before the due date."

"I can't ask you to do that."

"But I want you to come. I want you there. Believe it or not mom, this is scaring me. Birth is a scary thing."

Dorthy looked into Jessica's eyes and gave her a long hug. "I'll be there."

May 10th-

This was the last night Jessica would be living in Minnesota. It was all so exciting but sad at the same time. Jessica couldn't wait to start her life in New York, but dreaded leaving her life in Minnesota.

Dorthy cooked up a large dinner for Jessica, her siblings, all of the spouses/ partners, and Albert. In a way it was a going away dinner for Jessica.

Jessica's siblings all talked to her and promised that they would visit and made Jessica promise she would visit.

"I can't wait for Thanksgiving and Easter. I call holding both the babies when they're born." Ann chuckles

"Oh, you'll make Chase feel bad." Jane pouts

"Jessica, maybe you could come out in late July? I bet the babies would love it here."

They all sat in the living room after dinner, Jessica was still eating little nibbles. She rested on Danny on the couch. She stopped for a moment and cleared her throat after Jane has mentioned that. Her body became still as everyone waited for a response.

"That would be cool, huh?" Danny smiles bringing her hands from behind Jessica and resting them on her belly.

"I just don't think I'll be up for hauling two babies back and fourth." Jessica sighs

The room became quite and everyone was a bit discouraged.

"It's not that hard, put them on a plane and there you go! You're in Minnesota." George says in a sarcastic tone.

"George, it's not that easy." Dorthy whispers

"Then stop bothering her about it." George snaps

"We just thought with you moving that you would visit... It will just be hard for me to visit with work. I want our kids to have a relationship too. I guess there was just a misunderstanding." Ann looks down and twiddles her thumbs.

"Yea, Jess if you come out here we can help you out. It wouldn't be that bad." Jane says

"We just have to take it one small step at a time, huh?" Danny tries to lessen the tension and awkwardness in the room.

"Listen guys, we just need to let jessie take this at her own pace and be supportive." Albert nods

Jessica hid her face turning from everyone so they wouldn't see her cry. Danny rubbed her back and tried to calm her down.

"I want the twins to know Minnesota, I want them to know you guys. It's just me, I'll be so overwhelmed and so much will be going on. I want my babies to know New York too. That first month is the most important month. I'll be taking care of them and feeding them non-stop. I'll be trying to figure out a schedule, all of their appointments will be out there. It's a lot to ask from me. I'm a first time mom that will be dealing with two newborns. I can't just pick up everything and come home. I'm sorry, I want to but I don't know if I can." Jessica says breathlessly as she begins to cry even more.

Danny holds her swaying her back and forth to calm her down.

Jessica's sisters finally realized that it would be hard for Jessica and they were being selfish. They felt so bad. They stood up and comforted Jessica.

"I'm sorry Jess, we were getting too caught up in all the excitement." Jane says

Jessica sits up and wipes her tears.

"I will really miss all of you though. I don't want you guys to think that I'm forgetting about you, because I'm not."

"We know that honey. Relax, you'll hurt the babies." Ann says

"I'm going to miss you guys so much. It will be so hard to not have you all there, trust me. But I'm doing this for my family."

"We will all be there when they are born, okay? We can FaceTime everyday and all sorts of fun stuff. How does that sound?" Jane smiles

"And we will miss you too... But we will always have each other so matter how far away we are." Dorthy reassures them and looks at Albert.

"Whenever you need us, just give us a call." He says

"Awesome! Does that mean I'll be able to go out to New York all the time?" George exclaims

They all laugh.

"Yea, you can learn how to change dirty diapers in New York." Danny chuckles

"Haha, funny Daniel." George crosses his arms and rolls his eyes.

"Come here, I want a big group hug from everyone!" Jessica says

They all run up to Jessica and give each other a long hug.

"I'll miss these." Jessica whispers

"Owe!" Ann cries moving away

"What? Are you okay?" Jessica becomes alarmed.

"Your baby! It kicked me!" Ann chuckles

"Ahh, that was little Wyatt." Jessica giggles feeling around her stomach.

"Ahh, little Wyatt!"

That night Jessica couldn't sleep much from how uncomfortable she was. Danny woke up when Jessica was tossing and turning.

"You okay babe?" He turns to her and scratches Jessica's back.

"Thanks, that feels good. I'm just really uncomfortable, I can't lay on my back anymore. It's starting to become impossible to roll over." Jessica giggles

"I wish I could help..."

"Danny, am I doing the right thing?"

"What do you mean?"

"Moving, is this the right thing for me?"

"I can't tell you what's right for yourself and what's wrong. Jessica, if you don't want to move we don't have too. I'll call and tell them I don't want the job."

"No Danny, I can't ask you to do that."

"But if you stay I can't leave."

"I know that. I'm going to move with you. I want this for us. It's probably just my pregnancy brain talking to me." Jessica tries to shake away her thoughts, but Danny knows she's second guessing everything.

"Jessica, if your having second thoughts we don't have to move."

"I'm not Danny." Jessica tries to lift herself up and face Danny.

"I want this for us." She smiles cupping his cheeks.

"Okay... If you change your mind and really miss home we can come back."

"We are starting a new life together. It's all coming together. Danny, we are so happy. Think about how much happier we will be in our new home, in New York, with our babies, and each other. All that matters is us and our family." Jessica kisses Danny

"So you aren't have second thoughts?"

"No, I was just thinking." Jessica giggles

Jessica moves closer to Danny and begins kissing him even more. She moves her hands down his body.

"Are we going to do this?" Danny chuckles looking at Jessica who became very touchy.

"Yes, before I become to big to even move." Jessica tries to pull of Danny's shirt.

"But your parents are right down the hall."

"Then we have to be quite." Jessica giggles
