Izzy's POV

"Your mama is tall so let's hope you get that from her I'm short compared to her. Don't tell her I said I'm short or else I'll never live it down." I say to the boys as I change their diapers.

"Stacy wants to talk to you." Cody says.

"I'll be there after I finish changing their diapers." I say and Cody nods.

"We can take care of the twins." Channing says.

I finish changing the boys diapers as I throw away their diapers and wash my hands. Once I finish I head to Stacy's room.

"Hi Stacy." I whisper.

"Sit down." Stacy says patting the chair beside her bed.

I nod as I sit beside her. I fix Christen's shirt I have on as I sit up.

"It didn't have to be this way." Stacy whispers and I sniffle.

"You're going to be okay, okay? Don't talk the way you're talking." I say as I place my hand on top of hers.

"I know my family will be okay and my beautiful Christen is in wonderful hands. Whatever happens will happen." Stacy says and I shake my head.

"Don't do it Stacy you're doing it." I say.

Stacy lightly grips my fingers but there wasn't enough strength.

"I wish I could see my grandchildren grow up I'm sure they'll turn out like wonderful behaved boys. I wish I could have seen you and my daughter get married."

"You're going to see them grow up and you will see us get married. You'll be there." I say as a tear rolls down my cheek.

"Christen is in Spain. You tell her when she comes back in a week that I love her."

"No no Stacy you tell her. You'll tell her when she comes back and you'll be better." I say.

Stacy smiles at me as she tilts her a little bit. Her watery eyes looked at me.

"It's okay, I can feel it. They'll all be okay and so will you."

"But you're my safe space my safe person that I love talking to. You're not gonna leave. You're going to be okay."

"Sweetie you and I both know I'm not getting better. I haven't been for the past months."

"Is that why Cody always invited me over? You guys had already known?" I ask and she nods.

"Christen knew too, but I always tell her not to stress you out. I'm sure she stresses you out enough." Stacy says and I laugh. "Don't blame her, you've become such an important pillar in our family and I didn't want to tell you. I always like seeing you smile and laugh just enjoying your time with us. You never came when Cody asked because you were already planning on coming. He never had to insist, you came over every single chance you got. I'm forever grateful to have a wonderful daughter-in-law like you."

"Stacy."

"Let me finish. I think you've been around Christen too much now you're interrupting when others talk." Stacy says and we both laugh. "Oh who are we kidding Christen doesn't interrupt anyone."

"See you'll be okay. Promise me you'll be okay."

"Sweetie I can't promise you anything. I can't even promise you'll I'll make it tomorrow."

I sniffle as I wipe the tears on my cheeks.

"This just took a wide turn for me in a matter of months. The boys are four months now and then you're here. Stacy promise me you'll be okay."

"I can't promise anything honey. Just make sure Christen knows I love her. Will you do that for me?" Stacy asks in which I nod quickly. "Good now come give me a hug please."

Tobin's POV

"How are the boys?"

"Oh yes! I have pictures. Tons of them actually." Christen says as she pulls out her phone.

"Of course you do." I say laughing.

We all gather around Christen as she swipes through pictures of Asher and Ashton.

"They are absolutely adorable. Tobin we should have one." Alex says and I nod.

"Yeah we could totally babysit them." I say with a nod as I continue looking at the pictures.

I smile as Christen shows us a picture of all four of them in their family photoshoot.

"Tobin I don't think that's what your girlfriend is saying." Ash whispers in my ear and I look up.

"We could have one, I mean I don't know why one when we could babysit both." I say with a shrug.

"You're an idiot. She wants a baby." Christen whisper yells.

"Oh. Oh. OH." I shout as my eyes widen and I look at Alex who's talking with Ali.

"What's taking so long to put a ring on her and have a kid." Ash says and I shrug.

"Time?"

"If I found time to propose to Bella AND have kids you have time to find a ring to propose and have a kid." Christen says.

"Yeah but weren't the twins like unplanned." Megan says.

"Yeah Chris." I say.

"So maybe the condom broke or maybe I didn't wear one, I'm not one to blame. Those kids of mine are an absolute joy of mine." Christen says with a small shrug.

"They are cute." Julie says and I nod in agreement.

"Hey Christen when can I FaceTime Izzy? I haven't seen her in a while." Mal asks Christen.

"Maybe tomorrow? She's with my mom."

Christen's mom hasn't been doing very well. Christen and her family finally told Izzy what was happening because well Stacy got worse. It doesn't look pretty right now. But Stacy will pull through. We all know she will.

"So Kelley how was the call of yours yesterday?" Ash asks and we all burst out laughing.

"Leave me alone I haven't had sex in months." Kelley says groaning, letting herself fall back onto the bed.

We all heard a certain defender getting yelled at through the phone by Kenny. Different time zones is all I'm saying.

"I haven't either." Christen says.

"No but trust me Rachel and I know exactly what goes on in that bedroom of yours. Walls are thin." Kelley says and we all look at Christen.

"What? Hey a person has needs and sometimes it gets too much. You try to deal with it when you haven't seen the love of your life for months then talk to me."

"Ladies ladies settle down, let's get back to Christen's adorable sons and my godsons." Crystal says.

"What Crystal said, I'd like to see more pictures of my godsons." Becky says.

So kids huh? Proposing huh? That's something alright.
