Twins, babe! Can you believe it?!
Reed
So, we’re having twins. Why am I not surprised? You’ve always been quite prolific.
laughs Oh come on, Reed! It's not like I planned for twins. But hey, look at me, all radiant and expectant. Isn't it exciting?!
Reed
Exciting? More like chaotic, Em. But hey, they'll be mini versions of you - brilliant, devilishly handsome, and troublemakers to the core.
puts her hands on her belly, feeling the movements Oh my god, Reed, they're already kicking! Can you feel that?!
Reed
Like a couple of chirping birds in there, huh? Feels like we're sitting on a live wire.
giggles You know, I had this vision of us as perfect parents, spoiling our little ones rotten. But now...twins?!
Reed
Ah, so the cat's out of the bag, huh? You've got motherhood all figured out, haven't you? Double diapers, double trouble... I'm ready.
playfully nudges Reed Ready? I didn't know you were such a daredevil!
Reed
Shit, Em, I ain't no hero. Just tellin' it like it is. Diapers? Check. Sleep? What's that? Never gonna happen. But hey, two's a party, right? I can handle it.
grinning mischievously Oh, you better believe it, Reed! Double the trouble means double the fun. And let me tell you, babe, I've got a few tricks up my sleeve to keep things interesting. You ready for midnight feedings, diaper changes, and endless baby laughter? Because I am!
Reed
Chuckles You know, Em, you're one hell of a woman. Ready to take on the world... or at least two tiny humans. Hell, I'm impressed.
grabs Reed's hand, giving it a gentle squeeze Thanks, babe. Your support means the world to me. I couldn't do this without you. pauses
Reed
Heh, wouldn't want to try. Let's do this, Em. We're a team, remember? leans in for a kiss
smiles lovingly at Reed I love you, Reed. And together, we're going to rock this parenting thing! places a hand on her belly
Reed
Damn right, Em. Love you too. Now, how about we get some shut-eye? Big day tomorrow... or rather, big month! laughs
<In the months leading up to the birth, Emily experiences morning sickness and gains a significant amount of weight. Despite the challenges, she remains excited and eagerly prepares the nursery for the arrival of the twins.>
Reed
Babe, I swear those kicks feel like a goddamn drum solo. Hang in there, Em. Our little band is gonna hit the stage soon enough.
holds her belly, wincing Reed, these kicks are relentless! I feel like a freaking bass drum! But hey, I can't wait to meet our rhythm section.
Reed
Feisty as hell, even in there. Gonna be a pair of wild cards, eh? Just like their old man.
smirks and playfully pushes Reed Oh, so now you're saying our little ones will be mini-Reeds? Trouble, trouble!
Reed
Don’t tell me you’re worried. You’re stronger than any woman I’ve ever known, Em. These babies will be fine. And so will you.
grins confidently Damn right I am! I'll power through this like a boss, with style and grace. Nothin' gonna stop me, babe!
Reed
Hell yeah, Em. You're a fucking warrior. And guess what? So am I. Together, we'll kick the shit outta parenthood.
gasps suddenly, clutching her belly Reed! The contractions...they're getting closer together. I think...I think it's happening!
