"This is such horse shit." I say as I sit up and Rikki laughs.

It's almost one in the morning, I've been in labor for close to six hours and I still have two little mini Rocketts inside of me. I'm hooked up to a hundred and fifty different machines and it's all really pissing me off.

"The fact that you're here or the fact that our kids are still inside of you?" He wonders with a smile.

"I'm not due for another three weeks." I state and he laughs again.

"Are you going to tell them that?" Rikki wonders and I scowl.

"You thought about names?" I wonder and he thinks for a minute.

"Roxanne." He says after a minute. "Roxanne Alice Rockett. Shortened to Roxie of course." I smile.

"I love it!" I say and Rikki smiles.

"What do you think for a boy?" He wonders.

"Hunter." I say and Rikki lights up.

"Yes! Um, Hunter Silas Rockett." He says and I nod.

"I like it!!" I smile.

"Me to, baby." Rikki smiles. "Hunter and Roxie."

"It sounds great." I say.

Rikki spins on the stool beside the bed and the contraction machine hoes wild, my back arcs in pain.

"Figlio di puttanta! Cazzo! Cazzo! Cazzo!" I curse in Italian (I basically said son of a whore and fuck three times). Rikki laughs.

"Sounds sexy, babe." He smiles and I half smile.

The doctor comes in and checks stuff over and says I'm ready to start pushing. Jesus Christ.

I can hear Liss screaming from here. Blood curdling, murder screams. It sends chills down my spine and does the same to Bret and Bobby. Andy is pacing the length of the waiting room and CC is trying to calm her down, telling her that Liss is going to be okay. I'm the most optimistic person on the planet and I'm doubting it. Every time Liss screams Andy looks like she's going to murder the doctor. I warned her that Liss won't take pain killers because of the whole 'rugby player' thing. I really don't think anyone believed me, that she'd eventually give into the pain. Not Alyssa Swagger--Rockett I mean.

Liss starts cussing up the joint in her weird German/Italian mix. I laugh and Bret hits me in the arm.

"Think she's killed Rikki yet?" He wonders and I laugh again.

I notice that the screaming had stopped and I start to get worried. Just then Rikki walks down the hall, paler than a ghost.

"There's been a bit of a problem." He starts and Andy looks ready to kill. "The babies decided to flip, they have to send Liss into surgery."

Oh shit.
