Gajeel P.O.V

"There." Levy said with a smile. We had been going through a list of names for the past hour and we finally picked. She circled the three names we picked. "Phoenix, Slate and Skylark. I think they are perfect." She smiled and she rubbed her large stomach. It was almost comical on her small frame and she couldn't walk up stairs anymore with out help.

She was only 7 months along but the doctor had said she may have to deliver early."Skylark will be fine." she said when she saw my worried face. I smiled a little and nodded. The doctor had said that our daughters growth was slightly stunted and she would be tiny compared to her brothers.

She pushed herself off the couch and I held out a hand to make sure she didn't fall. I tried not to laugh as she waddled to the kitchen. I limped after her, I had ditched the crutches about a month ago. "Must you follow me?" she pouted. I grinned. "Yes I do. I'm hungry too." "How did you know I was coming for food?" I raised an eyebrow, "That's all you come in here for anymore." She puffed out her cheeks as she went to the refrigerator.

I chuckled as I watched her make our lunch. After she was done cooking she sat with me at the table and we ate. "Doors open!" I shouted as someone knocked on the front door. My dad rounded the corner. "Do you ever stay at your own damn house any more?" I muttered. He chuckled. "I just thought I would come see how mommy to be is doing."

"Im fine old man." she muttered, absentmindedly rubbing the side of her stomach. "Sure you are." he smiled a little and sat beside her. "What?" she asked, for frozen in the air.

"Well believe it or don't, delivering babies used to be my specialty. I know your doctor and he wanted me to come check on you." She frowned a little before taking a bite of food. "Fine. I'm finishing my food first." she muttered. I chuckled. "I learned the hard way dad. Don't ever get between her and food." he laughed. "Your mom was the same way. I just about got shot once." we all laughed.

Once she finished eating dad had her lay on the couch and he gently pressed on her stomach and felt it. "Well my dear, I'd say you have a week tops. They are all in position and low. So as soon as you start feeling any labor pain, either call me or get the boy to take you to the hospital." She nodded an he smiled.

I was pacing around in the waiting area, well limping really. My leg was killing me but I couldn't keep still. "I don't know what's gonna happen first. His legs gonna give out, he's gonna wear a hole in the floor, or he's gonna make himself nauseous." Natsu muttered. I shot a glare at him but never stopped pacing.

He was there along with Lucy, The Don and my dad. They had taken Levy for a C-Section and it had already been nearly an hour. I finally collapsed by my dad and put my face in my hands. He pat my shoulder. "Relax, they are all fine. Patience." I was about to tell him what he could do with his patience when the door opened.

"Redfox." The nurse called. I jumped to my feet and hurried to her, the small group following me. She smiled. "I'm going to take you to Miss. Levys room now. The babies have been taken to the NICU for a quick check up and then they will be brought in." I nodded even though my stomach turned uncomfortably.

Levy P.O.V

They finally wheeled me into a room and helped me sit up. I had only got a glimpse of the babies and I was nervous. Soon Gajeel and the others were lead into my room. "How are you feeling?" he asked as he held my hand. I smiled. "Really really tired. And numb. Can I say how amazing epidurals are?" he chuckled. I remember when we first got here and I was in so much pain he almost knocked out a doctor for not helping me fast enough.

"It should be about thirty minutes before they bring the babies in." I told him. He nodded as he sat on the edge of my bed. We talked quietly and I tried hard not to fall asleep. The door opened and the nurses pushed in three small carts.

"You did such a great job Levy!" Lucy squeeled as she peeked in the carts when the nurses walked by. "Cheater, I havnt even seen them yet!" I pouted. Everyone including the nurses laughed at me. The came to me and handed me the two blue bundles and the small pink one to Gajeel. I could have swore I saw him tear up. I looked down at my sons and felt my own eyes water. They were identical, with small patches of blue hair and crimson eyes. Gajeel sat beside me so I could see Skylark. She was so small. She had a head full of jet black hair and also had her daddy's eyes.

"They perfect." I whispered, afraid my voice would crack. Gajeel smiled and kissed me softly. "Just like you."
