A phone call wakes Andrew up but he declined it so he doesn't wake up Lexi. They keep calling him back so he gets out from behind Lexi and rests her on the bed then goes out into the hallway. "What's going on?" He asks sleepily. "We're at the party. Where are you and Lexi? And why is there some random black dude here?" His mom asks. "Funny story. Lexi had the babies so were at the hospital right now. And the black dude is probably romes dad. If it isn't, then I'd be worried" Andrew says. "The twins are here?" His mom asks excitedly. "Yes. But Lexi's resting right now so I'd appreciate it if you guys just welcomed us tomorrow so she can get a day rest" Andrew suggests strongly. "Of course. We'll see you guys tomorrow. Wish Lexi a get well or something like that for us" his mom tells him. "Will do. Bye mom" he says. "Bye" his mom responds and he hangs up. Lexi wakes up when he comes back into the room. "Hey I'm sorry I woke you up" he says as he sighs. "It's ok. We should probably talk anyways" Lexi says sleepily.

He rushes over to the bed and sits down. "Talk about what?" He asks worriedly. "Oh. I just thought about how I phrased that. It's not about our relationship. I still wanna get married and all of that" Lexi explains. "Oh, thank god" Andrew says as he sighs with relief. "I was just thinking about how maybe we should move closer to your family. I don't have the best relationship with mine and we're gonna need a lot of help" she suggests. "Oh. Yeah I was thinking about that too. I just didn't wanna pressure you into moving away from them" he explains. "I'm good with that. And I was thinking about selling my jeep" she adds. "What? Why do you need to sell your jeep?" He asks. "I mean I don't drive it anyways. And we're gonna need a minivan or something like that for twins and Rome when I have him" she replies. "Yeah but I don't want you to sell your jeep" he tells her. "It's ok. We could probably get a lot of money off of it" she says. "Ok. I just don't want you to have to give that up instead of me giving up my car. But could we talk about something else?" He asks.

"Yeah sure. We could talk about what to name the twins" she suggests. "Yeah. I was thinking maybe Olivia and Harry" he throws out. "I love Olivia, but I'm not sure about Harry" she replies. "Ok. What about Tyler?" He asks. "That would be an amazing middle name for the name I'm thinking of" she says. "What's the name?" He asks. "Jordan. Because he could go by JT if he really wanted to" she replies. "That's actually really cool. But what about Olivia's middle name?" He asks. "I have no idea" she replies. "What about Brooke? It would go really well with it and then you'll have a part in her name" he suggests. "That's be really cool. But what about you?" She asks. "Well I've always wanted a son named JT so it all comes together" he says. "Ok. So we have the names decided. But what about the car situation?" She asks. She realizes how Andrew's facial expression changed as she mentioned it. "I'm sorry for bringing that up" she says backtracking. "It's fine. I just don't really want to talk about important stuff right now" he replies.

"Ok" she replies. They rest for a while and then Andrew decides to go bring the babies back up so Lexi can see them. He comes back with a nurse that's wheeling Jordan while Andrew is wheeling up Olivia. "Hey I brought up a nurse to to check you out since you said that you were having some pain down there" Andrew says. "Oh" Lexi comments. "I called an OB to meet me here but she's obviously not here yet. I just don't want to miss anything that there could be to miss" the nurse explains. "I get it" Lexi replies. The OB gets there a minute later and she checks out Lexi. "Ok so there seems to be a tear down here which should hear on its own. The only thing is that it usually takes a couple of weeks to heal. It is going to cause you some pain to walk or sit, but if it feels like a lot of pain, then call me. No matter what time" the doctor says handing her her card. "Ok. So just take it easy at home with twin newborns? Piece of cake" Lexi comments. "What about Rome?" Andrew asks.

"I'm gonna ask Winston if he could take him just for like a week or two. Because I don't know how much I can help with three babies all under two. Especially when two of them are newborns and one just got done teething like a couple months ago" Lexi explains. "Ok. I mean I could have some of my family stay with us for a while to help. I mean they'd be down to do it" Andrew suggests. "Remember, accept as much help as you can. People aren't meant to do it alone" the doctor advises. Lexi sticks up a thumbs up so the doctor leaves. "Ok. I just don't want it to be too much trouble" Lexi adds. "It's not going to be. They love you, and their gonna love the twins. And if you still want Winston to take Rome, then he can if he wants to. I just want to make it as comfortable and doable as I can for you" Andrew tells her. "What did I ever do to deserve you?" Lexi asks. "You were you. That's all you need to do to deserve everything in the world. And that's what I'm going to give to you" he says.
