Chapter twenty - surprise

"What should we name them," I ask him smiling.

I look down at our two boys.

"I never been so thankful that we brought multiples," Benedict tells me.

As he places them both in Moses' baskets.

"Alphabetical or not," I ask him.

"How about sleep, darling. Get some rest. You deserve it" he tells me as he gets into bed next to me.

The next morning.

I hear soft crys coming from next to our bed. I slowly get out of bed and pick up Twin 2 who is of yet to be named.

I lift my night dress up so that my breast can become available and letting him latch on.

Benedict's pov

A week later.

"Viscount Bridgerton, Viscountess Bridgerton, The Duke and Duchess of Hastings, Detective Holmes, Miss Enola Holmes. (and the rest of the Bridgertons)" A butler announces.

"What was it you wanted us for?" Anthony asks me.

We had just taken the twins out the room so that Octavia could feed them with some privacy.

"Well Octavia and I have a surprise," I tell my family who have littered themselves around the room.

"Speaking of my sister where is she?" Sherlock asks taking a seat.

"Benedict are they here- oh hello," she says walking in, kissing my mother on the cheek, and saying her respected hello's.

"Octavia, your bump looks smaller than when I last saw you" Colin says, which causes everyone to look at her.

I notice something in my mother's eyes. A realisation per se.

My mother looks at us "Dear, have you?" no words were said, "oh my, you have" her hand raise to her mouth.

Everyone's voices fill the room as they catch on to what she was saying.

"Would you like to meet them?" My wife asks, standing up to leave the room.

"Them? Did she say them? As in multiple?" Simon asks sitting up in his seat next to a pregnant Daphne.

"Benedict, love, can you help me in here please?" My wife calls out from the room across.

"I'll be right there" I tell her standing up and leaving.

We both walk in her first holding Twin 1 and me next holding Twin 2.

"Oh my" is what runs across the room as we both sit down.

"Are they boys or girls, or both?" Enola asks as she kneels down in front of us.

"Both boys," I reply, glancing down at my boy.

"Do you have any names picked out yet?" my mother asks as I put the baby in her arms.

"Yes, we do actually," I respond to her.

"Well, Violet the one your holding is Sebastian, Sherlock Bridgerton" she smiles and looks over at her brother.

"Huh, what sorry I wasn't listening, what's the baby called?" Sherlock asks.

Everyone starts laughing.

"Sebastian Sherlock Bridgerton," she says once more.

"You named your child after me?" he asks approaching my mother to look at the baby.

"Of course, you helped raise me and had a large impact on my life," she tells him leaning against him. "But it also means I have to be somewhere in your child's name"

"And the other ones' name?" Colin asks.

"Alexander Anthony Bridgerton" I announce.

"What?" Anthony whispers "You named him after me? Why?" he begins the walk over, he next to her, and gently strokes the baby's face.

"Yes, brother we did. We thought it fit" I tell my Older brother, as Octavia gently puts Alexander in his lap.

"So Sebastian's name having Sherlock's name in has meaning. and my name is in Alexander's because it 'fit'?" he questions

"Alexander has Anthony as a middle name because we want him to carry on your legacy," Octavia tells him, as she strokes Alexanders' hair.

"Octavia, you're my favourite" Anthony says quietly.

"Oi" I respond acting hurt.

Octavia's pov

"Anthony you can talk normally he's not sleeping" I tell him as he holds my second born.

"I know but he's so tiny" he tells me, to which I laugh lightly.

I stand up, "Sherlock do you wish to hold him?" I ask.

Violet passes me my boy, "I'm proud of you Octavia, thank you" she tells me, I smile at her in response.

I walk over to a sofa next to Hyacinth, and pat the space next to me for my brother to sit.

He follows my instructions, and I place the newborn in his arms.

His body tenses, but soon melts as he looks in my child's arms.

"I'm proud of you Avia, he's so charming, they both are." he whispers placing a kiss to my hair.
