Bonus Chapter {November Of 2016}

━━━━━━━━━

November of 2016

"I cannot believe you guys are finally back home." Jannel sighed as she fell back onto the couch, Leo handing off one of the twins to her. Chase and I sat down on the opposite side of the couch. The two semi new parents were working on feeding the twins. Having a baby, let alone two, looked like a lot of work.

"I know." Chase sighed as he reached out for my hand. I smiled, watching as Leo made faces at the baby in his lap. "We're sorry we couldn't-"

"Oh shush." Jannel interrupted, waving her hand in the air to get Chase to stop. "You guys were practically there. Adam and Leo had both of their phones out. You saw everything." I nodded surely, shaking away the image in my head. Who knew what I would go through when I finally had to do that. At least it wasn't any time soon.

"Say hi to the babies." Leo smiled happily. "This is you're first time seeing them in person!" Leo announced. Jannel nodded, looking back up to us from the baby.

"Have you guys seen Landon yet?" Jannel questioned, the hope clear in her voice. I nodded, holding up my phone as evidence. I must have taken about a million pictures of the kid sleeping. He wasn't even mine... And he was sleeping. Adam thought it was a good pass time, though.

"We just came from over there." Chase relayed, giving me a look as he discretely motioned between the two children. I sighed, looking back to Jannel.

"I feel bad, trust me." I started off, getting a sly smile from Chase. "But I've never seen either one of the babies in person, and I don't know which one's which." Jannel sent me a death glare with that. They were literally identical twins. How the hell was I supposed to know which one was Caleb and which one was Gabe.

"Leo has Gabe, I have Caleb." Jannel huffed dramatically as she picked up the bottle off of the table. I nodded, noticing Leo was playing peak-a-boo with the child. Oh Gabriel Eli Dooley, you look confused.

"I thought Gabe was Leo's favorite." I teased, watching as the both of them looked up at me slowly.

"Just because I'm holding Gabe doesn't mean he's my favorite. It just means I'm his dad and I'm taking care of him." Leo scoffed, his eyes widening towards me as a silent tell that what I said was true.

"I'm not afraid to admit Caleb's my favorite." Jannel laughed lightly, looking slightly worried with the looks we were sending her. "What! He's cried the least out of the two!" She whined. I shook my head.

"That's why I like Gabe." Leo smiled gently as he rubbed his hand over the child's head. "He's got character."

"Character is definitely the word I would use." I nodded, making an okay sign with my hand as Leo gave me a thumbs up. I laughed and looked to Chase. We hadn't just come over here to see the babies.

"We actually came over to-"

"Give us the pizza we asked for before you two left?" Leo finished off excitedly. "Because I really want pizza." I rolled my eyes. This kid. Never change, never change.

"No." Chase affirmed. "But we can run by the pizza place. Thanks for helping with the set up, by the way. It's doing great." Chase held a goofy grin on his face. The four of us had all been here during the 'reconstruction' of the pizza place before Chase and I had to leave for New York. It opened before it was technically ready but at least Chase and I didn't have to miss the grand re-opening.

"We have something else to tell you." I smiled as Chase reached out for my stomach. Leo nodded, much like an approving father would.

"Oh good." He sighed as he held his hand over his heart. "Our up and coming group of replacements will have a fourth member. Please tell me you're having a girl." I frowned. He was quick.

"We don't know yet." I shook my head. "I'm only like three weeks along." I laughed lightly as Chase took hold of my hand again.

"Well." Leo huffed as he set his head in his hands. "Isn't there some kind of food you can eat to make it a girl?" He prodded. "The rest of us didn't have the three boys for nothing."
