Just before I start, well done to @MagicCrank16 for guessing name right,, yes my name is Alice 🎉

Phillip POV.
I still couldn't believe Anne was pregnant. As she lay next to me, on the bed, looking so sweet and innocent, my love for my two girls increased...well, my girl and my boy, maybe. But, like Anne, I really feel like it's a girl this time round, and Anne and I have decided on the name Elissa for our daughter, and middle name Rose. Elissa Rose Carlyle, I muse. It sounds so pretty, so delightful! If they are twin girls, the other will be called Grace, middle name Alice. We've thought of everything!
For a boy, we've decided on the name on the name Samuel, but we haven't digged into the middle name just yet, as we are both so sure that it's a girl.
Anne and I have kept Anne's pregnancy a secret from everybody else, and Anne has been pregnant for four months. We said she is terribly ill, and wears only baggy clothes. Today, we are going to see what gender our baby is.
We get ready, and dressed and walk outside, to go to the hospital, and I am bouncing in my shoes, however, Anne looks a little glum.
"What's wrong, love?" I ask her, as she looks up to meet my eyes.
"Nothing. I just don't want to disappoint myself if it's a boy." She says. I know what she means- the unspoken disappointment that will travel between us if it is a boy will flow strongly at first, but I know I don't really care if it as boy or a girl.
We arrive at the hospital, and are shown into a room where a lady is sitting in a chair. She stands up as she walks in to shake my hand- not Anne's I see- but I glare at her to put us as equals, until she shakes Anne's hand too.
"Hello, my nam is Dr Elizabeth Hamens. Anne, if you would like to lie down." Dr Hamens motions Anne to lie down, then rolls up her top and applies some gel. Anne shivers when she puts it on.
"Hoping for a boy or a girl?" Dr Hamens asks us, as she pulls out a machine and places it above Anne's stomach.
"Either is perfect." I respond for Anne, and she smiles at me. Dr Hamens smiles, pulls away the machine and swipes off the gel, then rolls down Anne's top. Anne sits up.
"Well, Mr and Mrs Carlyle. I am happy to say you are expecting a beautiful baby girl!" She says. A whist of relief washes over me as I hug Anne.
"I'm so happy!" She whispers in my ear, and I laugh.
"Any names ready?" Dr Hamens asks us, and this time Anne is confident to respond.
"We have a name all ready," She begins, "Her first name is Elissa, and her middle name Rose."
Dr Hamens smiles into her notebook as she scribbles something down.
"How did you think of Elissa? I haven't heard of that one in a while."
"It was a name that caught my eye a few years back. Always said if I had a daughter I would call her Elissa." I say, which is true. I can't remember how I heard of it exactly, but it is such a lovely name!
We walk back home in silence. The Carlyle family; Anne Wheeler Carlyle, Phillip Carlyle, and their gorgeous little daughter Elissa.

I love thisss! I didn't really wanna call her Alice cause that's my name and although i love it, better to pick something else lol
