Epilogue

(Marcel's POV)

I stroked Bella's hair to help her go back to sleep. She's been in labor for 13 hours already and it's killing her. She can't drink water, she can't walk, and she just got her epidural

"Knock knock" Stephanie said with a 1 year old Elsa on her hip and Eddie following behind her

Bella tried to say hi but a groan came out instead

"How you feeling Bells?" Steph asked her. Bella shook her head and leaned her head back into her pillow. Steph held her hand and tried to sooth her

I ran my hand through my curly hair and took a seat next to Eddie on the couch as he rocked Elsa to sleep

"How you doing bud?" Eddie asked, putting a hand on my shoulder

"I'm good. Tired. I want her to give birth and get her out of her misery" I confessed

"I remember with Steph, she was in labor for 2 days before Els decided to come out" Edward chuckled. I looked over at Bella and Steph hand a cold rag on Bell's head, and was rubbing her back

"They might as well be sisters" I laughed at the two of them, thankful that they loved each other as sisters would. My phone buzzed and Harry said him, William, Niall, Liam, and Danielle were on their way up

Moments later the 6 of them came in the room, Bella trying to smile at them but she grasped onto Steph's arm

"Shouldn't the epidural kick in yet?" Danielle asked. Bella slowly nodded and squeezed her eyes shut in pain

Niall held her hand and cracked jokes with her that fortunately made her feel better

"I want a baby" Harry frowned. William tensed up a little bit at the thought and then relaxed

"Yeah" Will whispered. Harry frowned at him then turned away. They have been married for about 10 months, I hope everything is okay

Bella screamed and we all fell out of our conversations and turned to her. I was by her side in a flash and held her hand as she shrilled in pain

"I'm getting a doctor!" Liam yelled and ran out of the room. Terror flashed across Bella's face as she gripped my hand

The doctor came in and told everyone to leave, which they do quickly

"Why has her epidural not kicked in?!" I shouted

"It takes longer for some patients. But she's ready to go, I'm going to get the nurses and she'll be ready to deliver" the doctor said and walked out of the room

"Marce, it hurts" Bella moaned into my shoulder. I rubbed her tummy and she tightened her grip on my shirt

It all went by so quickly that in meet moments, we were in a surgery room and my wife was going in for a C-section

I held Bella's hand and whispered sweet nothing's to her while they began

The small cries of our baby filled the room. My eyes watered as I kissed Bella

"Baby number one!" The doctor shouted and had my baby cleaned up. Seconds later we heard the cries of the other

"And baby number two!" The doctor yelled out. Bella started crying and told me how much she loved me. I kissed her hard before looking at our babies, which we didn't find the sex of

My smile grew wide as I first saw our son, and then our daughter

I went back to Bella as they stitched her back up

"What are they?" Her voice cracked as she asked

"We have a son, and a daughter" I cried. She smiled even wider and tried to look over at them. Two nurses brought them over and I was handed our baby girl

She was so tiny and beautiful

"Here's our baby girl" I sniffled and held her on Bella's chest. Bella kissed her forehead and let a few more tears spill

"She's beautiful" she cried

We did the same thing with our son. Our strong, beautiful son

Soon enough we were back in our original room, Bella holding our daughter an I was holding our son

"What do we name them?" I asked. Bella was in awe of our baby girl

"Ava. Ava Stephanie Styles" Bella softly spoke, stroking Ava's cheek

"I love it" I smile at her and looked down at our little man

"I like Braxton, for him" I said to Bella. She looked up and smiled

"Braxton. I like it!" She mused, "you pick his middle name" she continued

I looked at our son and thought about what would be suitable for a Styles boy

"Braxton Leo. Leo" I spoke

"Braxton Leo Styles. It fits" Bella said from her spot on the bed

I grabbed the birth certificate papers and filled in their names

"Ava Stephanie Styles and Braxton Leo Styles" I said aloud as I wrote

"Perfect" I heard a smirk as saw Edward standing in the door way. I motioned for him to come in and of course, everyone piled in through the door

"You had a girl and a boy?!" Stephanie squealed and handed Elsa to Danielle and rushed over to me

"They're adorable guys!" Niall said as he looked over Ava

Harry was gushing over Braxton while William looked on. Liam was over by Ava and Eddie let out a chuckle towards me

"What did you name them?" Liam asked. I smiled at Bella and she nodded

"Braxton Leo, and Ava Stephanie" I smiled. Stephanie looked at me and then Bella disbelievingly. Her lip quivered when Bella gave her a kind nod

"You named her after me?" Steph cried and hugged Bella and then me

Over the next few hours the babies were passed around to everyone and by the time 11:00 rolled by, Bella and Ava were asleep and I had just laid Braxton down

I sat on the small and uncomfortable couch in the hospital room before flicking on the tv

"Breaking news! Mafia leader Stephen Malik and son Zayn Malik were found in hiding in Siberia 3 days ago", My eyes went wide and I almost fell off of the couch, "it was announced that they had been killed in a bombing at the prison they were being held at almost 7 months ago. Malik and his son were behind the bombing and escaped. They escaped authorities in Siberia and are on the loose. More information on the matter in upcoming news"

I couldn't even move or breathe. My phone buzzed and I almost screamed because of it. I pulled it out and unlocked it without looking

"Hello?" I answered shakily

"Marcel!" Harry screamed into the phone

"What!?" I whispered so I wouldn't wake anyone up

"It's Edward! He's gone! Steph woke up and he was gone!!" Harry yelled and his voice cracked

No. No this wasn't happening

"Marcel!" Harry yelled again

"It's Zayn" I said, "he's still alive"
