Katana's POV
"...And they said all seats are sold out." Sahara says
"Okay that's good." I say into my phone as I wait to be called back to the doctors office.
"And Alex and Christen have chosen the 6 songs each they want you to sing from the list you gave them." Sahara says.
"And they both agreed on two to make 14." Aurora says.
My sisters and I are talking about the concert I'm putting on for Christen and Alex in a week.
"Sweet." I say as I stare at the door in hopes the OB/GYN's staff come get me.
We're finding out the gender of the babies today and Mikaela's back in the exam room doing all the pre-exam check up things while also making sure Mikaela feels safe.
I know they're making me wait so they can make sure Mikaela feels safe, but I hate being away from my baby for so long so they need to hurry up.
"Other than that we're all set." Aurora says.
"Sweet." I say then I see the nurse come out of a door. "Gotta go."
"Bye." My sisters say then we hang up as I stand up.
"Come on back." The nurse says with a smile.
"Come on boys." I say then Appa, Socks, and I follow the nurse through the office and back to the exam room.
"Your wife's in here." The nurse says as she opens a door then the pups run into the room. "And the doctor will be in any minute."
"Thank you." I say as I walk into the room then I lay eyes on my wife who's petting the doggies.
Once the door to our room closes, I walk over to my wife.
"Mikki." I mumble then I lean down and kiss my wife.
"Hi Baby." Mikaela says with a smile.
"Those meanies took too long." I say with a pout.
"Well I told them to wait to get you until all the measurements and stuff was done." Mikaela says with a soft smile.
"But I missed you." I say with a pout.
Mikaela chuckles then she kisses me again.
"I'll have them come get you sooner next time." Mikaela says with a soft smile.
"Yay." I cheer then Mikaela's OB/GYN walks into the room.
"Hello Ladies." Dr. Sorensen says.
"Hey Kate." Mikaela says.
"Hi Doc." I say then I stand aside and watch Dr. Sorensen examine my pregnant wife.
After all the examination stuff, Dr. Sorensen does an ultrasound to determine the sex of our twins.
"Do you two want to know?" Dr. Sorensen asks.
"Yes please." Mikaela and I say in unison.
"Baby A is a girl." Dr. Sorensen says. "And Baby B is also a girl."
Mikaela and I don't really care what gender our babies are, but we just wanted to know so that it's not a big secret.
Once we learn the gender of our babies, Dr. Sorensen finishes up the exam and schedules our next appointment before she leaves then I help Mikaela get dressed
"Alright Baby Mama." I say once Mikaela's dressed. "Let's go get ready to party."

Mikaela's POV
"Hi everyone." Some lady on the stage here in the club says as I lake at her from my booth. "And welcome to 80s night at the Lotus Club."
"WHEW." Everyone cheers as I sip on my virgin strawberry daiquiri while sandwiched in-between Talia and Emma.
The Arsenal ladies, their significant others, and I are all at the Lotus Club, which is a ladies only club in London that one of Leah's friends owns.
"To kick off tonight's festivities." The owner lady says. "We have a special guest here tonight who's gonna sing for us."
"I wonder who it is." Emma teasingly says making me giggle.
"Please welcome Katana Solo." The owner lady says then my wife walks on stage.
"Yay." I cheer as Katana approaches the mic.
"Hi people." My wife says as she plugs in her electric guitar.
"HI." A few ladies near the stage say.
"So the first song I'll be singing is my favorite song from the 80s." Katana says. "So this is Separate Ways by Journey."
"I don't know if I've heard this song." Alessia Russo says then Katana and the club band start playing. "Never mind."
A few moments later, Katana starts singing.
Here we stand
Worlds apart, hearts broken in two, two, two
Sleepless nights
Losing ground, I'm reaching for you, you, you
Feeling that it's gone
Can't change your mind
If we can't go on
To survive the tide
Love divides
Someday love will find you
Break those chains that bind you
One night will remind you
How we touched and went our separate ways
If he ever hurts you
True love won't desert you
You know I still love you
Though we touched and went our separate ways
Troubled times
Caught between confusion and pain, pain, pain
Distant eyes
Promises we made were in vain, in vain, in vain
If you must go
I wish you luck
You'll never walk alone
Take care, my love
Miss you, love
Someday love will find you
Break those chains that bind you
One night will remind you
How we touched and went our separate ways
If he ever hurts you
True love won't desert you
You know I still love you
Though we touched and went our separate ways
"Do you think she'd ever quit football to focus on music?" Jordan Nobbs asks as we watch Katana play a guitar solo.
"Yes." Myself, Emma, Jessie, Talia, and Leah say.
Truthfully I thought Katana was gonna retire after the 2023 World Cup
Oh
Someday love will find you
Break those chains that bind you
One night will remind you
If he ever hurts you
True love won't desert you
You know I still love you
No!
No!
"She's too good." Talia says.
"Mhmm." I say then I sip on my virgin strawberry daiquiri.
"Now this next song is relatively unknown so I hope you like it." Katana says with a smirk.
"I bet I know which song is next." Emma mumbles then Katana clears her throat.
"Just a small-town girl." Katana sings
"LIVIN' IN A LONELY WORLD." Everyone in the club sings.
"Oh you do know the song." Katana says. "Well I guess we need to start the song over."
"Poohead." Emma says with a smile.
"Yeah." I say with a smile. "Yeah she is."
