"can we do cali?" i ask phil

"course we can love." he replies

i pass him cali and he gives me bentley. phil lifts her up underneath her armpits.

"daddy's princess." phil says smiling trying to make her laugh but not realizing it wasn't going to work, i mean she had only just been born

"phil." i say

"yes." he says looking at me and now cradling cali in her arms

"how are we going to do this." i say

"i promise, we'll figure it out." he says stroking my forehead with his other hand

"can you go get addi, i feel bad." i say

"course." phil says walking off

while he's over there, the nurse comes over to check on me.

"everything okay? feeling okay?" she asks

"really good thank you, just tired." i say

"well i don't blame you, three children have come out of you. but three very beautiful children." she says

"thank you." i say

"your genes darlin." phil says over hearing our conversation

"you think? i think they look like you." i say

"no way, two girls are identical to you." he tells me

"i agree, you could be sisters." the nurse says

"i don't know about that." i say giggling

"you could." phil says

"have we got any names yet?" the nurse asks

"yes actually, all three." i say

"great, so what's baby A's name?" she asks

"cali foden." i tell her as she writes it down

"baby B?" she asks

"bentley foden." phil says

"and last but not least, baby C?" she asks

"addilyn foden." i say finally

"beautiful names, beaufitul family. we'll take you to the recovery room." she says

"can they come?" i ask

"yes once you're all set up, so about 5 minutes roughly." the nurse says

"okay." i say as a different nurse takes cali from me

she removes the blue sheet that meant i couldn't see the surgery and carefully moves me out of the room still lay down in the bed.

"see you in a bit." phil shouts with addi and bentley in his arms

"you're an inspiration to all women y/n." the same nurse says making me smile

"thank you." i say

"not many of us are brave enough to do that." she says

"well i mean i had to, for the sake of them right." i say

"no one ever said you had too, and that's what makes you so great." she says as we get to my new recovery room

"i think some family and friends might be here or shortly arriving, when can they come up?" i ask

"we'll get phil and the babies in now, your visitors will be allowed up in 30 minutes." the nurse says

"okay thanks." i say

"are you going to be alright on your own for two minutes?" she asks as i nod, "i'll be right back then."

i look around the room as the door slams, i play with my fingernails and see my hands shaking. i didn't know why, but not knowing why made it worse. i started feeling really faint, i was peeling off the skin on my thumb, biting the insides of my cheek just waiting for them to appear again.

finally they do, and just in time. i don't think i could of lasted any longer.

phil was carrying two of them and the same nurse as earlier the other one.

"good news y/n, they're not identical so we don't have to worry about mixing them up." phil says walking over to me

"are you okay?" he asks

"y/n, are you feeling alright?" the nurse asks noticing

"ye-eah.." i reply

"you don't look alright, you're very pale." the nurse says

"i'll be a-alright." i say reaching out for someone to pass me one of my children

"i'll go get a doctor." the nurse says, "phil sit down for me, and i'll sort it out in a way you can have all three."

"i c-can have one." i say

"no sweetheart." the nurse says

i watch as phil sits in the chair with cali and addi in his arms already, the nurse re-arranges them all so he can have all of them in a safe way.

"i'll be as quick as i possibly can be." she says exiting the recovery room.
