Chapter 10: Complications

"TWINS?!" Celeste screams when he wakes up.

"Yes. Twins."

He starts freaking out saying 'oh my god' repeatedly. I let him pace around the room for about ten minutes before I couldn't stand it anymore.

"Calm down please. Your driving me crazy."

"But....twins. I was nervous enough about having one kid and now we'll have two."

"I know. But at least now our daughter will have a brother to help protect her."

He sighed and hugged me. "Alright, I guess we better go shopping then." He didn't make any move to break away from our hug. "That requires you let go." I tell him.

"Five minutes." He mumbles.

We spent five hours shopping. I was dead tired by the time we got back.

I took whatever energy I had left to get upstairs and in the bed. As soon as my head hit the pillow I was fast asleep.

When I woke up the next morning Celeste was already up and getting ready. "Well good morning. You kinda passed out when we got home."

"Yeah I was tired."

"Do you need anything?" He looked like he was having trouble choosing a shirt to wear. "Hmmm. Can you start me a bath, and you don't need a shirt."

"Yes to the bath but I don't think everyone else will appreciate me being shirtless."

"Fine, wear the blue one."

Sometimes he treat me like a child. Like right now, he put bubbles in my bath. Buy I guess I won't complain since I was finally able to relax. All this stress with Zach has had me cranky and irritable. Since we left we haven't had any problems from him. But its only a matter if time before he finds us again.

Kasey P.O.V

I woke up in a dark room. There are no windows. The door doesn't have a handle on this side, but atleast the bed is soft, warm, and clean. I look over and see a lamp. Just my luck, it doesn't work.

Maybe its not plugged in. As I was trying to figure out the lamp, I heard foot steps outside the door. I remember days of when I used to be locked up in rooms worse than this whenever Zach would get mad at me. I stop what I'm doing and wait for whoever is coming.

"Kasey? Are you awake?" The voice sounded familiar.

"Y-yes." I stutter.

Without a word they come in the room with a tray of food. "Here's dinner. Wow its dark." He walked over to the lamp and plugged it in. "There. The bathroom is right over here," hr pointed to the other door in the room."and you have clothes in the dresser. If you need anything just yell."

"Wait. What's your name?"

"Demetri."

"That's a lovely name."

"Thanks." Then he left. He seemed nice. I wonder when I'll get out of this room?

Demetri P.O.V

I know I shouldn't, but I do feel an attraction to Kasey. Maybe it will pass. I sure hope so. She probably doesn't even feel the same way about me. I guess even if we both have feelings for the other we can't be together. I mean she is supposed to be spying on my sister.

I don't know what I'll do if these feelings don't go away.

~Three days later~

Maria P.O.V

Me and Celeste have been painting the nursery all morning. "Stop." I say between laughing so hard. Celeste keeps tickling me. "Say the magic word."

"Stop before I kill you." He quit tickling me, but then he picked me up and continued to paint the flower he had started.

"Could you put me down now?"

"Hmmm..... No. You don't need to be walking around so much."

"Then can I sit down?"

"Nope. You are perfectly fine in my arms."

After we finished painting the nursery Celeste and I went to

the pond behind the lodge. We sat there for a while before Celeste got the bright idea to get in the water. So here I am watching him swim around in his boxers.

"Come on! You know you want to get in with me!" he pouted.

"Nah I'm fine. I have a nice view from here." He got out of the water and walked over to me with an evil grin. "You look like you need a hug."

"Oh hell no. you will not give me a hug until you have dried off completely."

We didn't get back to the house until late. It was nice to just spend the day with Celeste without having to listen to everyone else; or deal with stress. I know he was happy and I'm glad.

The reason I suggested me and him go to the pond was so that I could get his mind off of the twins for a little while; I know that he's nervous.

Celeste P.O.V

I'm freaking out. Twins?! I'm trying to stay calm for Maria's sake but I'm scared, to say in the least. I was scared about messing up one kid but now I'll have two to screw up. I'm gonna be a terrible father. I'll probably leave them somewhere or forget to feed them. Ugh! It's hard enough keeping up with Maria; I'm gonna suck at being a parent. Maybe I could call my mom and she could help. Yeah that's what I'll do. Oh, no one can know about us being together. Wait, how are we gonna explain the kids then? Oh god, why are things so complicated?

I mean, Zachariah is trying to get Maria, were in hiding, Maria is pregnant, no one can know about our relationship, I'm gonna be a bad dad, and were keeping Kasey locked up in the panic room. I need a panic room so I can panic freely.

Ugh!
