One month later...

Teddy:POV

I look through my fridge, and grab some chocolate pudding. I take off the lid, and suddenly feel a shooting pain in my stomach. I let out a surprised yelp, and drop the pudding.

"So it begins." I sigh, and slowly walk over to my cell phone while clutching onto my stomach. I sit down on the couch as I call my mom.

"Hi, sweetie!" Mom greets me happily, and I start to shove my shoes onto my feet.

"Hey, my contractions are only four minutes apart." I say quickly, and I hear my mom gasp over the phone.

"Oh my God, I'll be there as soon as I can! Hang in there, Teddy." Mom hangs up the phone, and I set my cell on the coffee table. I look over at the wall clock, 3:23 PM.

I pick my phone back up to call Spencer, but my two baby girls didn't like that idea, has decided to kick the inside of my abdomen.

"I'm assuming that means that you two are ready to come out." I groan, and bend over while gripping into my stomach with both hands.

I lean my head back on the couch throw pillow, and let out a quiet whimper. In mere hours I'll be giving birth for the very first time, and I have yet to meet someone who loves giving birth. Then again, my mom had five kids. Four pregnancies, four trips to the hospital having to deliver a baby.

My mom opens the front door, and comes running to my side. "Are you okay? How do you feel?" Mom asks, and helps me up off the couch.

"I'm about to deliver twins, how do you think I feel?" I groan, and Mom tilts her head to the side.

"You are just like me, so much that it's scary." She says, and I rest a hand in my back as we make our way towards the door.

"I know, it scares me too." I say, and she laughs.

"That's not exactly what I meant." Mom says. We walk outside, and she leads me to her car. I open the door to the passenger seat, and she gets in the front. We buckle up, and she starts to pull out of my driveway.

"I'm so scared." I suddenly burst into tears, and Mom looks over to me. "Sorry for that sudden out burst, my hormones are all over the place, and now I just want to eat pizza."

"I know how that feels. I've been through it more than most people." Mom laughs.

"Mom, please just hurry up." I say, and she scoffs.

"Honey, I have to go the speed limit."

"Yeah, well I'm going into labour!" I shout.

"Calm down. Actually I take that back, if someone told me to calm down while I was going into labour, I would probably punch 'em." She says, and I sigh.

"At least you can relate." I whisper, and lean back in my car seat. I feel another strike of shooting pain in the middle of stomach. I groan, and place my hands back over my stomach. I don't know how anyone could handle anymore than two babies at a time, I know that it's extremely painful just to have contractions. Thinking of how painful my contractions are, makes me begin to worry about actually giving birth. I mean, I'm shoving two human beings out of my- 

"We're here!" Mom yells as she tries to find a place to park. 

"Great." I say in monotone, and my heartbeat start to speed up. Looking at the hospital makes everything seem so real, and I feel exactly how I did when I first found out I was pregnant. Excited to bring a life form into the world, but scared of being a mother. My family has always told me that I'll be a great mommy and that I shouldn't worry, but I just don't know. I've always been a good example, and get along great with kids, but I have no idea how I'll be with my twin daughters.
