It was just a casual day when I realized I'm usually on my period this time of the month. I went into the bathroom and I saw I'm late. I ran to get a pregnancy test and I waited for the result. Positive. I paged Owen to the on call room. He showed up and saw me breathing heavily.

"Amelia what's wrong?" He asked.

"I'm pregnant. P-R-E-G-N-A-N-T, Owen." I said, looking up at him.

"Really?" He asked.

"Don't get your heart set on a baby, I make brainless babies." I said as I broke down. Owen ran to me and held me.

"Amelia I'm not going to tell you the baby is gonna be perfect because I don't know that it'll be healthy, but let's get an ultrasound, we'll get Robbins, and find out everything we need to know." He said.

I nodded, wiping my tears. We found Robbins and got into an exam room.

"Owen, hand." I said, reaching my hand out. He grabbed my hand and I took a big exhale. I looked away as she started the ultrasound.

"I see a brain." Arizona said. I looked at Owen. I smiled and he kissed me. I looked at the ultrasound.

"Wait, do I see two heads?" I asked.

"Owen, Amelia. You are having twins!" She said.

"Do they both have brains?" I asked.

"They do." She said. I smiled.

"Twins! We're having twins Owen!" I said happily. We got a couple ultrasound pictures and headed out. I grabbed his hand and we looked at the picture as we walked down the hall together. We went to the lounge and everyone was there.

"We have an announcement. I'm pregnant. With twins." I said. Everyone cheered. I showed everyone the pictures.

********************
"And your boys are doing great." Arizona said.

"Boys?" Owen and I said at the same time.

"Yes. Congratulations." She said. I squealed and kissed Owen. We went home and planned a little shower.

*******************
"We can't fit us and two boys in this tin can Owen." I said while Owen was giving me a foot massage after a long day at work.

"I'll call my real estate agent." He said as he finished and pulled me up. He helped me practice some breathing exercises and then he rubbed lotion on my belly. I scooted forward and he gave me a back and shoulder massage. He stood up to get in bed.

"Owen, help." I said, reaching my hand out. He grabbed it and pulled me up. We got into bed and I cuddled up to my husband.

*****************
"This is our house." I said, sitting in the car outside our new house.

"This is our house." Owen said. We got out and carried boxes into the house.

"Amelia, sit on this beautiful new couch." He said, pointing to the new couch in the living room. He brought in all the boxes and unpacked the everything that wasn't already unpacked. Mostly everything was done already. We had been bringing things for a few months after the shower until we were finally able to move out of the trailer. We have the nursery and all the other rooms done. He sat next to me and my pants were wet.

"Owen. The babies are coming." I said.

"I'll call the ambulance." He said.

"Wait. Calm me down because I am freaking." I said, looking out the window.

"Hey. Look at me." I looked at him and it was enough to calm me down. He called the ambulance and we got to the hospital when my contractions began.

"Oh god!" I yelled.

"Do you need anything?" Owen asked.

"Ice chips." I said. He kissed my hair and grabbed the ice chips. He grabbed the spoon and fed them to me.

"Alright Amelia, let's see how far along you are." Arizona said, checking.

"How far?" I asked.

"5 centimeters." She said.

"Uhhh." I complained.

"Hang in there Amelia." She said, walking out.

******************
"Amelia, give me one last push for the first baby." Arizona said.

"No, I can't do it. I can't!" I yelled.

"Amelia, yes you can. We're almost there, then we can meet our baby boys and give them names." Owen said. I nodded and pushed until I heard the first cry.

"Owen. That's our son." I said, looking at him. I hadn't completely processed that I was actually having a healthy child.

"Yes, it is. But we have another one coming. Like right now." Owen said.

"He's right, go ahead and push." Arizona said.

"No, it hurts! I can't Owen no, ow!" I whined.

"Amelia we're almost there. You can do it." Owen said. I began to push.

"Amelia, stop!" Arizona yelled.

"What do you mean?" Owen asked.

"We need to wait. No more than 10 minutes." Arizona said. I nodded as they took care of the first baby.

"Oh god! I need to push this hurts! Owen!" I said as I started crying.

"Amelia. Shhhhh. Deep breaths, just like we practiced." Owen said as he climbed onto the bed. I squeezed his hand hard.

"Let's get an oxygen mask!" Arizona said. They got me an oxygen mask to help me breathe. I took it off for a minute.

"Owen, I just wanna go home! I wanna be done! This hurts. Arizona just let me push!" I yelled. I started breathing really hard.

"Amelia, it's gonna be okay! Just put the mask back on, breathe, and we'll get there." Owen said. I shook my head. Owen put the mask back on. He let me squeeze both of his hands.

"Okay Amelia, PUSH!" Arizona said. I pushed hard and there was the cry of my second son. I was rolled to a regular room and Alex brought in our sons. Owen sat right by me and we each took one.

"Parker Reilly Hunt." I said, looking at Owen.

"Perfect. How about this little guy?" He asked.

"Mitchell Owen Hunt." I said.

"Parker and Mitchell Hunt. I love it." Owen said.
