Forever

Chapter 35: Part 1

Harry's POV

12 hours and a handful of hair later Jennifer and I welcomed our beautiful baby boy and girl. We named the two little cuties Emme Maribel and Maximillian David. You never know true happiness until you hear that little babies cry as they come out of their mothers womb and into the new world. Which by the way isn't a pretty sight but still it is beautiful in a way nobody can really explain.

As me and a Jennifer sat there crying watching in awe as the nurses cleaned our babies and wrapped them in cute little pink and blue baby blankets, I couldn't stop thinking about how different our lives were going to be for this moment forward. We are parents now. We have two babies to look after and care for.

Surprisingly, the idea of settling down permanently and raising a family with Jennifer didn't sound as scary as it was a couple of hours ago. I was ready. We were in this together. And I was more than ready to take on anything now that I had her and our babies by my side.

My thoughts were quickly interrupted as the nurse approached us with Max and Emme in her arms. I more than willingly took Emme into my arms while Jennifer carefully cradled Max and looked at him like he was the most beautiful thing in the whole entire world. She then looked up at me with tears in her eyes and I didn't need her to say anything because I know what she was thinking. I leaned down and gently kissed her forehead and rested mine on hers.

"You did it Babydoll. You did it." I said as my voice cracked at the end because I was so overcome with emotion.

"We did it." she said in a raspy voice. " I couldn't have done it without you." she smiled and kissed me with a small smile.

"I love you so much." I said as a tear escaped my eye.

"I love you more." she said with a smile," but I have enough love for these two." she smiled and she looked at the two newborns we were holding in our arms.

"We're actually parents now." I said in a state of realization, "We have children now."

"Yes we do. And I couldn't be happier." she said as she stroked Max's head.

"They're so beautiful. And tiny. I never knew something could be this small and fragile." I said as I gently stroked Emme's cheek.

"Well they are babies, baby." she let out that little giggle that I love. I chuckled in response and kissed her nose.

With that, I scooted down to sit next to Jennifer and put my arm around her. She laid her head on my shoulder and we stayed like that until we all fell asleep.

*4 days later*

Jennifer's POV

After 4 days in the hospital we were finally able to come home. It was a strangely euphoric feeling walking into our house with the twins in their carriers. While we were at the hospital I had called some of my friends and asked if they could go and finish up the babies' room. We walked in and it was beautiful. Half of the room was pink and the other half was blue. The cribs were set up and there was even my moms old rocking chair she used for me while I was a baby.

Harry took the carriers and took the babies out of them and put them in their cribs. He succeeded in not waking them up might I add. 'He's going to be a great father' I thought to myself as I watched him kiss the babies foreheads. While he was putting the carriers to the sides of their cribs I walked up behind him and hugged him from behind. I kissed his shoulder and felt him gently stroke my hands.

"C'mon, lets go to the room" he whispered and grabbed my hand and led me to our bedroom.

When we got there I plopped onto our huge bed. Harry went to the bathroom to go change but I was already in pajamas so I just laid there.

When Harry came back to into the room he laid down next to me and we both turned to face each other. He brushed a piece of hair behind my ear and kissed my forehead. We laid there for awhile just looking at each other. Finally I couldn't take it anymore so I leaned in and kissed him. He reciprocated and pulled me closer to him. I wrapped my arms around his neck and we just laid there exchanging light kisses.

When we pulled away to breathe I rested my forehead on his and just smiled.

"I love you." I whispered.

"I love you more." He responded. I kissed him one more time and snuggled up as close I could next to him and before I knew it, we were both waking up to the sound of a crying baby.

"The first of many." I heard Harry groan as he let go of me and climbed out of bed. I sat up and watched him walk out. I was about to lay back down when I heard a pretty distressed Harry call my name.

"Uh, Jen. I need a little help over here." He said nervously and I laughed because now I could hear two babies crying instead of one.

"I'm coming." I yelled back and got out of bed. This was going to be very interesting I giggled to myself.
