Daddy Don't Let Go

April 22, 1998

"Bailey?" Chad Kroeger calls out as he comes into their apartment, setting his guitar down.

Today was a whirlwind of action, with his band, Nickelback, signing with Roadrunner Records and releasing their first single from their new album, The State, called Leader of Men.

As he walks down the hall to the bedroom, he notices Bailey sitting on the bed in tears.

"Baby? What's wrong love?" He asks, immediately worried for his girlfriend.

"Chad I'm pregnant!" She cries and Chad smiles as he holds her, excited to become a father.

"Baby, this is wonderful news!" He exclaims, showing his happiness.

"Chad, there's two! I went to the doctor today and they said that there's two in there! I don't want two!" She yells and Chad's once happy face crumbles.

"Bailey, those are two innocent lives! Those are our children!" Chad says and she rolls her eyes.

"I can abort one, keep the other, Chad. It's not like it's the ned of the world, we'll still have one." She says snarkily and Chad shakes his head.

"No. I want both of them. This isn't America where you can run off and abort any child you get pregnant with because the father has no rights to the unborn child. This is Canada, where that only applies to Rape and Incest victims, as well as underage teens. You have to fill a paper out and I have to sign it as well. I won't sign it. I want both of my babies." Chad says and Bailey scoffs.

"What happened to you saying it's my boy, my choice? This is my choice!" Bailey yells and Chad glares at her.

"Those are my babies in there and I want both of them." He says as he leaves the room to make dinner.

It's been months since Bailey told Chad she was pregnant. Now she's carrying two babies, because Chad refused to sign the paper from the clinic for the abortion.

She tried and tried to change his mind, but he refused.

Right now, the two are out shopping at the mall for baby things, Specifically pink or purple baby thing. Their twins are girls. Identical too.

"I'm bored!" Bailey whines as Chad looks at the cribs for their twins, seeing how sturdy they are as well as the price.

$65.99

Chad nods as he finds two of them and puts them in the buggy.

"Chad! Let's go home now." Bailey demands and Chad rolls his eyes.

" I am shopping for our babies, Bailey. I told you that you didn't have to come with me." Chad says and she scoffs.

"So you could go sleep with one of those fucking whores? I don't fucking think so." She says and Chad sighs as he tries to get what else he needs.

Cribs
Paint
Blankets
Diapers
Wipes
Changing table
Swaddles
Playpen
Mattresses&Sheets

Chad grabs the swaddles, loving how soft they are, and puts ten in the buggy, five for each girl. Pink for one purple for the other.

He gets two mattresses for the cribs and six sheet sets for the girls.

At the house, Chad takes the paint, Cribs, mattresses, and clothing to the nursery. They had to upgrade to a bigger apartment in order to properly house everyone.

"Chad! I'm hungry!" Bailey says from the living room as Chad puts the girls' clothes away.

He makes dinner and serves himself and Bailey.

"Here they are!" The midwife says as she brings Chad and Bailey their newborn daughters.

They were born just a couple hours ago, and they look so much like Chad it's not funny.

"Hi there baby, I'm mommy." Bailey says to the baby on the right as she picks her up and holds her, bluntly ignoring the other twin girl.

The other girl begins to whine out of discomfort and Chad scoops her up, gently holding her.

"Hi there sweetie. I'm your daddy baby girl." Chad whispers to his daughter, seeing her bright green eyes and wispy red hair.

Bailey gives the twin in her arms the name of Christy Michelle Kroeger. And still refuses to hold her other daughter.

Chad decided to name the baby in his arms. He names her Misty Lillian Kroeger.
