Slenderman's pov

Hours. so many hours. It seemed like days. I'm never away from her this long. I'm dying without her. Everyone is trying to be strong, always saying something to brighten the situation but I have gone silent. I won't talk to anyone, and I've been doing nothing but rocking Scarlet back and forth. After another hour of silence a doctor walked in looking grim.

"Ash Gonzalez?" He asked.

I looked away from my sweet flower to look at the man who said my name.

"yes?"

"I'm....sorry. Your wife is...." He sighed and as he was ready to tell me the same busty blonde nurse ran in looking shocked, and relieved.

"Doc! Her conditions are stable! She's alive again!" The nurse almost screamed.

The doctor ran from the room leaving us without an answer. I bounced from my seat and looked at everyone. Just after I did the doctor ran back into the room smiling, and ecstatic.

"Mr. Gonzalez! Your wife! She died but she somehow brought her oxygen levels back up, and she's breathing again!" He said joyously.

I hugged him tightly, and spoke.

"When can we see her?" i asked

"Give her another half hour and she'll wake up. She'll be able to leave around noon tomorrow." He said, and I sucked in a deep breath.

"Yeah. I mean....I haven't seen Night in almost 36 hours and I survived, what can another half hour do?" I said and chuckled breathly.

The doctor smiled, nodded respectfully, and left the room. I sat back down in my seat and smiled at my little Scarlet. Scarlet giggled and reached out her tiny hands and she grabbed my index finger. She stuck it in her mouth and half bit down. I smiled and Splendor laughed. I looked up at him and smiled.
For that half hour we waited, everyone played with Scarlet and held her. Night was alive and we were thankful for that. After that half hour the busty blonde nurse came into the waiting room.

"Night will see you now. In room 472." She said and walked away.

We all got up and walked toward room 472 where the nurse told us to go. I hoped the door to see a messy hair, but still beautiful, Night. I walked over to he smiling, and she looked at the pink bundle of blanket in my arms and smiled.

"Is it.."

"Say hello to Scarlet."

Night gasped and held out her arms. I softly handed Scarlet to Night, and she fell in love with this small bundle of joy. Scarlet wrapped her tiny, chubby fingers around Night's long slender ones. Night's hair was matted to her forehead with sweat, and Night slightly bounced Scarlet while Scarlet laughed and giggled with pure happiness.

"She's perfect." Night whispered.

"Yes. Yes she is." I whispered back, and kissed Night slightly.

Night kissed back, and Scarlet started giggling. Night and I looked to Scarlet and we smiled. Everyone gathered around to see Scarlet. Splendor was the first to hold her, and as Splendor held Scarlet, She poked his cheek. All was perfect. Our new baby girl was here, and nothing could make this day anymore perfect than it already was. Nothing would change that.

"Crying Scarlet." Night whispered.

"hmm?" I hummed.

"Crying Scarlet. At home she's known as Crying Scarlet. Outside the home she's known as Scarlet. Just Scarlet." Night explained.

"That's perfect. Today can't get any better." I said.

"Oh yes it can!" The busty blonde nurse said and came in.

"and how's that?" Night asked.

"You had twins!" She said happily, and handed Night the second baby.

"Twins!?" Everyone in the room was shocked, except Night, she was confused.

"If you have twins aren't they supposed to look somewhat similar?" She asked the nurse.

"Well, yes." The nurse said.

"Then why does this one have black hair?" Night asked.

I was confused and so was everyone else on the room. I looked at the baby, and it did have black hair. It seed so odd.

"We aren't sure why he has black hair, but she does. Even if he has black hair, and the other has red it doesn't mean they aren't twins. Trust me, I was there when you gave birth to both of them. He's yours." The nurse then disappeared without any further words leaving us all stunned.

Night started crying soft, light red tears. It worried me because I though Night didn't or wasn't going to care for them, but she surprised me.

"Oh my god! Twins!" She cried, and smiled brightly.

"A boy and girl. Well, today officially got two times better!" I said, and everyone laughed.

"What's His name gonna be?" Zack asked Night.

"Soulix!" Night giggled.

"Soulix. I like that name, it rolls off your tounge." Splendor said happily.

"We have our very own family. And a beautiful one at that." I said.

Night looked down at Soulix, and I did as well. I noticed her had jet black hair, pale skin, and piercing blue eyes. He was perfect. Night then gasped.

"What!?" Yvette asked frantically.

"Slendy look! He has your tentacles!" Night smiled.

I looked closer an to my surprise, he does! I laughed and kissed Soulix's forehead softly, then kissed Scarlet's, and lastly kissed Night's. Today was truly perfect, and nothing would change it no matter what. I found the one reason to live, and now I have three. I have a family to call my own. Finally, somebody who loves me, three somebodys to love me. Forever.
