Part Seven

The gang rolls in with more supplies. When they come down the hallway to put stuff in their rooms, they hear something they haven't in a while. Crying of a baby. But this crying seemed louder than when Judith cries. Maggie walks to Beth's room to see what's going on and freezes where she is, in shock, in joy, in utter elation.

"Beth?! When did you... wha..... Oh my god you had twins!" Maggie run in and hugs her sister tight. She marvels over both tiny infants an then hugs Daryl, who was in shock from Maggie's reaction toward them.

"It happened when you were out, bout four hours ago. This is Hunter Jackson and this little sweet girl is Rebecca Lynn!"

"You already picked out names?!" she was almost crushed for not only missing the births but also naming them.

"Yeah. Daryl picked them out." I hand her Hunter and she smiles. Soon the ready of the gang are in my room. Carl holds Judith and I hand Sasha Rebecca.

"Really? Well their cute names. Good job Dixon." Maggie laughs and Daryl can't help but grin. He was glowing with fatherly pride. He never wanted this before, but now that he has it, he'll never let anything hurt them.

"Well it's nice to have two new family members. Think we should all have dinner now. Carol's been waitin for good reason to make something nice." Rick brushes a finger across Rebecca's face and then leaves. Everyone, but Michone, Carl, Sasha, and Maggie leave. Everyone else says congratulations and exits the room.

"They're so precious." Michone takes Rebecca from Sasha. She cradles her close and then snuggles her. "They look just like you both. Except they don't have hair right now, so we'll have to wait and see what color they have."

"Yeah, both have yer bright blue eyes." Daryl kisses Beth on the top of her head and just smiles. Sasha continues. "I better go see if Carol needs anything. Congratulations again."

She leaves and Carl leaves taking Judith with him. Beth can't help feel that Carl is still mad at her for picking Daryl. She just wishes he understood. He was actin childish, which is a turn off for everyone. Besides, she's never been into Carl.

"So when's the weddin'?" Michone was joking, but both Daryl and Beth went paler than an Irish person in winter. "Jus' jokin'. I better go help Tyreese with the dishes. Need to eat off somethin' tonight."

Maggie looks at both babies and then at her sister. She starts to tear up and Beth just goes over and hugs her free side, while Daryl holds Rebecca rockingly.

"Maggie what's wrong?"

"I jus' imagined Daddy seein' you now. See them. All of this. Bethy, he'd of been proud." Beth hugs her tighter. She's glad she at least has her sister. She may have liked being alone with Daryl, but she loves being able to have her sister.
