Charles' POV

---------------------------------

It can't be. I know it didn't happen. 

"WHAT THE HELL IS MY PROBLEM!!?" I screamed into the empty field. I kicked the football as hard as I could into the goal. 

I need to tell her.

Rhea's POV

--------------------------------

SInce the big blow out at the restaraunt 5 monthes ago, everything besides the pregnancy has been going great. Now I see why women gain weight so easily during pregnancy! I crave the weirdest things from pickles with ice cream to chocolate ham.  But I'm very lucky! My online college courses for teaching are going amazing. I just don't see how Niall can even look at me. I always carry blankets over my shoulders to hide the extra 30 pounds I have gained! I am so fat I can't even look in the mirror.  

Knock, knock! Niall opened my door a little bit to see me downing a bag of chips. Immediately I cover myself up with blankets as he comes and sits on the edge of my bed. 

"Why do you always do that?" He asked eyeing up my blankets.

"Do what?" I said innocently even though I knew he was gesturing towards covering my entire body with blankets. 

"Cover yourself with blankets. Come on babe, you know what I'm talking about! Everytime I see you your a big pile of blankets! What's with that?"

"The truth?" I bit my lip. Should I even tell him?

"I expect nothing but it." He scooted closer toward me and looked me right in the eyes.

"I-uh um I-ah.." Spit it out Rhea! "I'm worried if you see what I really look like that you won't want anything to do with me anymore." I was starting to get furious at myself for eating all this! I mean he probably will be disgusted by me and my body! 

"I'm so gross and disgusting! I mean look at me!" I edged myself off the body so I could get myself and my baby off the bed safely. 

"Look at me," I pointed toward my stomach and legs, " I'm so fat and gross! I haven't taken a shower in 4 days because I am so fucking pathetic I can't even take one by myself! No one would ever find me attractive, not even you," I turned to face the full body mirror and I couldn't hold back my tears," I understand if you don't want me anymore." I added softly before burying my face in my hands. 

I felt hands wrap around my gigantic stomach. Niall grabbed my hands and placed them on the baby with his. 

"Babe, look up please." he whispered softly in my ear. I slowly lifted my face. He had tears in his eyes too. We were both staring at us in the mirror for a moment.

"Listen, this is our family, Rhea. I will always love you two no matter what happens. And never has any of those things crossed my mind and they never will. Your beautiful and I love you and all your little things."

I turned and gave him the biggest hug I could give. I know I truly love him.

"I love you Niall." I looked him in the eyes and kissed his cheek softly. 

"Babe, I hate to ruin the moment, but I came to tell you that I have to get you ready for your doctor's appointment.

******************************

I sat on the cold bed in the doctor's room. Niall looked so nervous that he could puke. I giggled looking at his face as he looked up at me and gave me a genuine smile. There were 3 light taps on the door before Dr. Marshall came in with his equipment.

"Hello Rhea," he shook my hand and turned towards Niall, "and you Niall." He gave him a friendly nod. "Would you like to know the sex or be surprised?" 

"Know!" Niall and I practically yelled at the same time which got a laugh out of all of us.

"Ok then, Rhea, will you please lift your shirt so I can start?" 

I lifted my shirt and felt the cold ultrasound gel hit my stomach. With the cramps, the cold felt so good. Dr. Marshall lightly pressed the ultrasound machine to get a picture on the screen. He tilted the machine to the left and there was our little baby. 

"It's a girl!" Dr. Marshall smiled. Tears started slipping out of Niall's eyes as he came over to hold my hand. 

"Wait a minute! There's another baby!" Dr. Marshall exclaimed.

"Twins!?"
