2 months. 2 months without contact of the two lovers. 2 months of feeling alone. 2 months of a child developing. 2 months of wedding plans.

Word travels fast and just 2 months ago Calum and Angelique had made it official, they were to be married in less than a year. Why wait a year to get married you ask? Well Angelique insisted that for the wedding to be perfect, you must take a while and prepare things slowly. Luke was crushed when he heard the news, he knew he would never have the chance of marrying Calum, but at least be boyfriends?

Luke was getting ready to go to the castle and pick up his check from the King and Queen. He always messages Sarah, one of the maids, if anybody is in the castle. She knew Luke's situation, she knew who the father of his child was, she knew the whole story. He always made sure that Calum wasn't home, if Sarah told him that Calum was going to be in the castle all day, he would call the King and Queen and tell them he couldn't make it.

Sarah messaged him a minute ago saying Calum just left to visit a friend. The only ones at home were Mali, Sophia, David, and Joy. He put on his Nike sneakers, (since his stomach started to grow that meant weight, and his feet couldn't handle it so they swelled.) After fixing himself up he walked out and took Ashton's truck. Ashton was out with Michael, they were becoming very very close, he just hoped his brother wouldn't be hurt in the end.

Luke stopped at a red light, he took the opportunity to look down at his bump. Two months and he was huge! But he has a reason. Last week he went for a check up with Dr. Davis A/N i almost put down Dr. Dre vivi wyd?) it was time to listen to the heart beat. He was so excited he could barley sit still. When turning on the heart monitor, Dr. Davis made a face, not a face of disgust or happiness. More like confusion. She moved the wand around a bit, until she found what she was looking for. There it was, the second baby. Luke broke into tears of joy, he was having two babies, not one, two! His heart swelled with love and affection.

He took out the ultrasound picture and stared at it. His babies would be the cutes babies alive. He put the picture down and continued to drive. Once he reached the castle, he got out along with the ultrasound picture. Joy and David said they wanted to see the ultrasound and check up on how he was doing. If only they knew they were watching their Grandsons or Granddaughters grow. Maybe even Grandson and Granddaughter.

He made sure none of the servants saw him, he only trusted a few of them, but the others were just bitches and gossiped all the time. Once it was clear, he walked up to their room and knocked on the door. He was greeted in and immediately brought into a hug by the Queen.

"Oh my goodness! Look at you, you're so big and just, beautiful!" Luke blushed and smiled. "Thank you my Queen. And I have the ultrasound picture. You might be surprised at what you'll see." Joy took the picture and sat down on the couch next to her husband. They saw what was on the paper and they broke into smiles. Luke was having twins! "Luke I envy you! I always wanted twins." He looked down and began to rub his belly, a habit that has formed over the months. "I'm so excited, I get two babies. Sure they might look like the dad, but I don't care it's not their fault. I'll love them both equally."

Outside of the door, Calum was crying. His baby boy was here. Over the months he has forgotten his sweet voice, his scent and his looks. It's almost as if Luke was all but just a memory. He wanted to go in there and hold him, even if he puts up a fight, he just wants to hear and feel him. But he can't.

"So I think it's safe to say we will be adding extra money to the checks, you are having twins and that means twice the things you probably bought over time." Luke shook his head frantically. "No please its fine, with the money you give me and the money I have saved up I'll get by, I promise." "Luke don't argue with us. We want you to give your kids the best and only the best. We love them already, its almost as if their our grandkids." But they are. Luke thought, he just smiled shyly and nodded his head. The money they gave him was already too much, $2,000 for just one baby. And now that they know its not just one baby, they doubled the money to $4,000 dollars.

"Be safe out there Luke, as a mother I know what it's like. We weren't always rich back then, I had Mali, who was 5 at the time and Calum who was only a couple months old. It's a hard world out there, and we don't want you to struggle. We don't want you to feel the pressure we did back then. So take this and give your kids a wonderful life and future." Luke took the check. And unexpectedly hugged Joy. She smiled sweetly and hugged him back.

After that he left and made his way down hall. Only to be tugged into a room. Luke's first instinct was to protect his babies from harms way. When he finally saw the persons face, he teared up. It was Calum.

"Let go of me Calum! I have places to be." He tried to get away from his grip, but couldn't. "No, I just want to see you for a bit, please baby boy, just let me hold you." Surprisingly, Luke stopped. He let his body relax and watched as Calum brought his arms around his waist. There foreheads up against each other. No one moved, not even a sound was made. Calum looked up and saw Luke's bright blue eyes. The pair were slowly leaning in. Finally they kissed.

Their lips molded perfectly like all those other times. Luke realised what he was doing. He pushed Calum away with a hard shove. "No! You have no right to kiss me, you're getting married soon. You just practically cheated, and I am not about that life. You rejected me, you crushed me, you broke me and you can't fix it with an I'm sorry and a kiss."

"Honey, I know what I did, but just try being in my shoes, its hard when you don't like kids, its hard because you know you're bound to have them no matter what. I miss you, I miss us. I just want to go back to the way we were before." Luke shook his head and scanned the room. He found an object and handed it to Calum. "Here, break this vase." Calum looked up in confusion, bit did so anyways. The vase broke into pieces with a loud crash. "Okay, its broken." "Now put it back together."

Calum crouched down and tried to put the pieces together. But it was hard, he was near to tears when he couldn't put it back. "I can't! It's hard some pieces are missing and they're super tiny." Luke just stared down at him. "See? You can't fix things that are broken. You can't mend them together again. You've already made the damage. And what's done is done." Luke opened the door and walked out, leaving a crying Calum on the floor.

He continued to cry until he didn't hear the sound of the trucks engine anymore. From the corner of his eye he saw something. It was a small rectangular cut paper. He picked it up and flipped it over. It was Luke's ultrasound picture. In the bottom Luke wrote down a little note.

May 10th, 2036

'First picture of the twins!'

Calum stared at the paper. He saw what he helped create, what he wanted dead. What took his honey away.

He got up and walked to the corner of the room. He opened his drawer and took out his wallet. He took out the picture of him in his house for the first time and replaced it with the picture of the twins.

He didn't know why, but just by looking at the picture his heart felt strange. Little did he know that the feeling was love, and that his heart was slowly, but surely, falling in love with his kids.

++++++++++++++++++++++++
Drama llama mama. Okay so at first I was going to make it be one baby, but then I started thinking about how cute twins would be. One would look like Luke with the mixture of Calum and the other would look more like Calum but with a mixture of Luke.

Also I want to do a character ask, but I need to know if you guys would want one too. Because it would be awkward if I just posted a character ask and nobody would ask a question.

So comment(?) If I should do it or not.

I'm gonna go eat now been in bed since 10 and its 2:37pm now, oops!
