I felt like I was ready to pop! As I predicted, Dmitry never left my side. I watched him as he paced back and forth. "Do we have everything packed? Did we forget something? Fuck I feel like something's missing." I sighed and struggled standing up. He rushed over to me, helping me up. "Cara mia, what are you doing? You shouldn't be on your feet." I steadied myself. "Dmitry, I love you but right now you are driving me crazy. We have everything ready for them. Everything is packed in the bags and in the car. Would you please just relax? I could swear it was you pushing humans out of you." He cupped my cheeks. "Do you know how sexy you are when you're sassy?"
I rolled my eyes, and made my way towards the bathroom. I rubbed my stomach, and grabbed my toothbrush to start getting ready for my day. Little did I know my little girls would be making an entrance into this world today. I felt an excruciating pain in my stomach. I felt liquid trickling down my leg.
"Uh oh." I walked back in the room. Dmitry was on the phone. "Un minuto," he looked at me. "What's wrong amore mio?" I couldn't get my words out. "Uh, I don't want to alarm you but," another pain shot through me. "They're coming!" He dropped his phone and rushed over to me. He picked me up bridal style, and hurried carefully down the stairs. " Mom, Dad! It's time!" A very pregnant Alaina hurried in the room. "Get her to the car! We'll be right behind you!"
"Keep breathing baby you're doing good!" He hurried me out to the car, making sure I was secured. Alaina and Greyson got in the car, and Dmitry sped off. Alaina held my hand. "You're okay Haydin. Keep breathing just like they showed you." I shook my head. "I can't do this! I'm not ready!" She moved the hair from in front of my face. "Yes you can and you are! Everything will be okay." Tears were streaming down my face. I couldn't do this! I didn't have a real mother figure in my life. The closest thing I had to a mom was Dmitry's mom. I never thought I'd go through this without my mom by my side. Even my adoptive mother.
"We're almost there Haydin."
"How far apart are your contractions?" Another one. "They're coming maybe 3 minutes apart." We pulled up to the hospital. Dmitry got out, and carried me in the building. "DR TANNER NOW! My girls are coming!" Dr Tanner ran up to us. "How far apart are contractions Haydin?" Another contraction hit me fast. "Continuous now! Get them out of me!!" Nurses came with a bed, pushing me to a room. Dmitry held my hand. "Dmitry.."
"I'm right here amore mio."
"I am going to kill your for doing this to me!" His eyes widened. "Okay Haydin I need to to push!" I squeezed my eyes shut and gave it all I had. "That's it keep pushing I can see hair!" I squeezed the life out of Dmitry's hand. A loud cry broke me out of my trance. "Hang in there mom, we have 1 more baby to get out. Give me a big push!" I pushed harder and another cry broke out. "Congratulations you have 2 beautiful baby girls." Tears streamed down my face. Dmitry kissed the top of my head. "You did great amore mio. Look at them." The nurse placed one of the twins in my arms, and the other in Dmitry's.

"Do you have a name for the little angels?" I nodded. "Can you let our family in? We want to tell them as well." The nurse nodded, and opened the door for our family. They all came rushing in. "Oh my goodness! Look at them!" They all gushed over the babies. "What did we name them!?" I looked up at Dmitry. "Welcome into this world Noeli Alaina Vincenzo and Nayeli Alivia Vincenzo." Alaina started crying. "Dammit I'm too young to be a grandma but they are so precious!" Maria scoffed. "I'm a 7 time grandma and now a great grandma. I top you." We all laughed. I looked around. Never did I think that I would be surrounded by this much love and adoration. Who knew I would ever become a mom and a mafia wife. I watched Dmitry coo at Noeli. Who knew the big bad mafia man would become a big softie to his girls. I handed Nayeli to Alaina and Greyson. Dmitry looked down at me. "We did it cara mia." I smiled at him. "I love you Dmitry Vincenzo." He placed a kiss on my lips. "As do I Haydin Vincenzo" I giggled. "Not just yet. I haven't said I do yet." He tucked my hair behind my ear. "You will forever be known to me as Haydin Vincenzo."
And that ladies and gentlemen is how our story ends. A happily ever after that was destined to happen. Who knew it would start with that one little boy who saved a little girl from being picked on in preschool.
