A few days later**
Jess is tossing and turning on the bed trying to get comfy and Danny sighs
"Jess are you ok?"
"No I'm an elephant and cant get comfy" she starts to cry.
"Jess you are not an elephant you are gorgeous and carrying two babies"
She gets out of bed and walks downstairs and pulls out the couch's built in bed. She curls into a ball as best as she can and cries. Danny walks downstairs and cuddles up to her and says,
"Jess what is wrong?"
"I'm too fat to sleep with you" she sobs
"Jess you aren't fat"
"Danny quit fucking lying damn it!"
"I'm not!! You're so fucking sexy I'd like to fuck you day in and out and the fact that you are big because of our baby boys is so amazing"
Jess wipes her eyes and smiles at him
Danny pulls her closer and spoons her.
They both fall asleep peacefully.
***
Meryl wakes up and grabs her short silk robe and checks on the babies. They are both sleeping so she walks downstairs and sees Jess cuddled with Danny and smiles and mutters something about goals and walks to the kitchen and starts making breakfast. The baby monitor picks up the baby crying so she turns the oven off and goes up stairs and goes to the babies' room. When she walks in Rue is crying and screaming,"Momma!" Meryl grabs her and sets her down and Meryl grabs her side and cries out in pain after her contraction she stands up again and says,"Stupid fucking braxton hicks"
Rue is still screaming for Jess so Meryl grabs her and takes her down stairs and sets her down and she runs to Jess and Jess stirs and sees Rue and smiles. Rue smiles and pokes Jess's nose.
"Hi baby"
"Momma"
Jess moves Danny's arm and grabs Rue and takes her to the kitchen and sets her down and grabs some of the food Meryl made and makes Rue a plate. Jess gives the baby her plate and makes herself a plate and sets at the table. Jess sighs because she cant fit at the table because of her huge belly so she just sets the plate on her belly and starts to eat. Meryl walks in and laughs.
"Jess you have great table"
"I'm not in the mood Meryl"
"Jess what's wrong?"
"I'm a fucking elephant"
"And I'm a hippo your point?"
Jess laughs.
"Yeah but the boys are killing my back so all I ever feel like doing is sitting."
"Jess I hate walking too haha"
"I don't know if i can do this Meryl"
"You're Jessica Fucking Lange you can do this"
"And your Meryl fucking Streep and we don't quit."
The boys start moving in Jess's belly and Meryl can see the babies' feet outlines.
"Holy shit Jess"
"I know isn't it great?"
"Yeah"
Jess sighs
" We'll be fine Meryl"
