Surprise In The Mail

It was already 2 months away from when the twins were supposed to be born. The excitement was building, but also fear. Bree was so nervous about having twins, but Conner kept telling her that he wasn't going anywhere and that they were a team. That made Bree feel a lot better. That night they were having all their friends over for dinner.

"Conner, what are all these books doing here?!" Bree said. "They'll all be here in a few seconds!"

"I was going to pick those up right now." Conner said and picked up the stack of books and quickly went to the library and put them away. When he came back Bree was quickly cleaning everything.

"My gosh! This coffee table is so dusty!" Bree said.

"Honey, please stop! Your going to get yourself tired and stressed!"

"Too late I already am!"

"Bree, these are our friends, they don't care about about our house being nice and clean."

"Bite your tongue! Red, Charlie, Alex and Arthur all live in castles, with hundreds of servants! It's just us in this huge house."

"Goldilocks and Jack live like us and they don't have servants. But I do see where your coming from, twins will be a lot to handle, especially when I have to head over to the Fairy Kingdom. Maybe we should get a maid."

"Really Conner! You'd get us a maid?"

"Yeah. We'll be so focused on the twins I think a maid would be a great idea." Conner said. Bree was beaming with happiness and she hugged Conner tightly.

"Thank you Conner!" Bree said. The doorbell rang and they walked over and answered it. Goldilocks, Jack, Alex, Arthur, and Red and Froggy were there.

"Hey guys come on in. Dinner is already ready!" Conner said.

"Good, because we are starving." Jack said. They all walked and sat at the dining room table. Conner came in and served the food and he sat next to Bree and ate.

"So, are you guys excited?" Red asked.

"Very. The nursery is already done, but we still need the cribs." Bree said.

"Well, you look way better then I did with Hero." Goldilocks said.

Bree laughed and smiled. "Thanks Goldilocks."

"Conner you excited to be a dad?" Froggy asked.

"Very, I probably won't be as good as my dad, but I'm going to try. Conner said.

"You probably won't." Alex said and took a sip of her side soup.

"Hey! I can try!"

"Dad set expectations no other dad could reach. No offense guys." Alex said.

"None taken, I knew your dad. He was amazing man." Jack said.

"I knew him too. Not very well, but he was very nice." Red said. There was then a knock on the door.

"Who could be knocking on the door at this time of the night?" Arthur asked. Conner got up and answered the door and there was a man in a blue and white suit at the door with a scarf around half of his face. So all you could see was his eyes.

"Can I help you?" Conner said keeping half of the door in front of him. Arthur went around and saw the man, and put his hand on his sword, he instantly had a bad feeling about this man.

"Letter for Mrs. Bailey." The man said and handed it to Conner. He grabbed it and closed the door.

"Who would be sending me a letter?" Bree said.

"Let me see it Conner." Arthur said. Arthur opened it carefully and they read it. They looked very confused. "I don't understand this."

"What?" Froggy asked and walked over to them to read it. Alex walked over next and looked at it.

"It looks like some sort of spell." Alex said. She quietly read it to herself and a green light came out and hit Bree. She then screamed and started to breath heavily. Conner ran over to her.

"WHAT HAPPENED!!" Conner yelled. Everyone surrounded Bree incredibly worried.

"How...how is this happening?!" Bree said and held her pregnant belly.

"What's happening?"

"Conner...it's time." Bree said.

"No way! Your not due for another 2 months!" Conner said. "Alex, please study what that letter says, I guess this is it. Let's get Bree upstairs."

Alex took the letter and ran to the library.

"I think I'm going to go with Alex, and help." Red said and followed Alex.  The rest got Bree upstairs quickly and she laid carefully onto the bed.

"Conner!  Why did this happen?"  Bree said breathing deeply.

"Alex is going to figure it out."  Conner said.

"Do you think someone sent that letter, knowing you would read it, and wants to take your children?"  Jack asked.

"Even if that is the case I won't let them."  Conner said.

"Conner, we aren't ready!  This happened to early."  Bree said.

"Bree, I'll be right here, we can do this."  Conner said and he kissed Bree's cheek.  "Let's do this."

A few hours later, Bree had given birth to two beautiful and healthy baby girls.  Goldilocks quickly got some blankets and wrapped the babies in them.  Bree held their first born and Conner sat next to her holding the second one.

"Congratulations guys."  Goldilocks said.  Alex then came running in with Red behind her.

"Are you kidding me!!  I missed it!"  Alex said.

"You want to hold one?"  Conner said.  Alex nodded and Conner handed the baby over to her.

"Hi little one, I'm your aunt."  Alex said.

"Alex did you figure out what that letter said?  Conner asked.

"I did, it's an old ancient spell used to speed up ones pregnancy."  Alex said.

"Why would someone send us that?"  Bree asked.

"I don't know, but someone might be after the twins."  Alex said.  "I'll try and find that man again, but in the mean time, I wouldn't go anywhere."

"Agreed."  Conner said.

"What names did you choose?"  Red asked.

"Well, I think we decided on some.  This one is the oldest, so I was thinking Scarlet."  Bree said.

"What about this little one?"  Red asked.

"Sophie.  That was our grandmothers name."  Conner said.

"It was?  Wow, I never knew that.  I love that!"  Alex said and handed Sophie back to Conner.

"Well, we better be getting back home."  Froggy said.  "We'll visit tomorrow."

"Actually tomorrow is today."  Jack said.

"Then we'll visit later today."  Froggy said.

"Bye guys."  Bree said and smiled and they all left.

"I'll make sure those cribs will be sent later today, with their names engraved."  Red said before she left."  Purple and blue right?"

"Yes Red, thank you."  Bree said. 

"Ok, congratulations again."  Red said and left.  Conner sat next to Bree and they both yawned.  It was late at night and Bree was exhausted.

"Here, let me hold Scarlet."  Conner said.  "You sleep." 

Bree handed Scarlet to Conner and she fell right asleep.  Conner cradled the twins and laid back upon the bedrest.
