Double Trouble

They were inundated with visitors for several hours after the birth. The nurse came in after the last onslaught and gently told them it was time for the new family to rest and get to know each other. Raven was dozing off when Jon leaned down to hug and kiss her telling her he would be back tomorrow. She smiled groggily. Jordan assured him when she woke up again he would tell her . He silently extended his hand to Jordan who gratefully took it and then pulled his brother in for a hug. The tension and damning now over an unspoken apology was exchanged in that hug and then as he left Jon closed the hospital room door behind him. Jordan slipped out to get a cigarette .He needed one after the night they had had .He thought for a split second about needing more than nicotine but quickly came back to reality as he passed the nursery and saw a nurse changing his daughter. He butted it out after a few puffs and went back to the nursery. He stood watching the nurses with his children and when one of them motioned him in he nodded and went to the sink to wash his hands. She got him all settled into a rocking chair and laid Wyatt who happened to be the twin who was wide awake .Jordan was so nervous he was shaking. Mr. Knight just relax he knows who you are there is nothing to worry about .She gave him a reassuring smile. Jordan shifted his arm to accommodate Wyatt's tiny body and that's when he looked down. Tears and a sob choked out at the same time .The nurse who stayed nearby rubbed his back reassuringly .Big blurry brown eyes met tiny dark green .They had put ointment as protocol said so Jordan knew once everything balanced out they would be as beautiful as his Mommy's. Hi baby boy he whispered as he felt another knot in his throat. He kissed the crown of the baby's head and began to sing him the lullaby he knew all too well because his mother sang it to him .He rocked his son and held him close to his chest .A little while later Jordan handed his son to the nurse when Aislynne began to stir. They repeated the process they had taken with Wyatt and Jordan took Aislynne in his arms .He knew then that he was looking at Raven's exact duplicate .She had her cute little pouty lips and button nose .Hi baby girl he whispered. He knew most baby's eyes were blue or at least a close shade at birth but sometimes changed after a few months but when he looked down into the tiny face of his daughter his brown eyes met her tiny wide ones that he swore were identical to his own. She felt so tiny in his big hands and he truly felt he could break her if not careful. The lump formed once again and the tears spilled over this time. He sat and rocked her singing the same lullaby to her that he had for her brother just a few short minutes before. He inhaled her sweet baby smell and at that moment knew his heart was no longer his and never would be again.

Jordan stood outside the er a short time later smoking the cigarette he had butted out earlier .He had so many emotions running through his mind. He could have lost everything if he wouldn't have had the wakeup call he had. He truly would have lost his sanity if he would have lost his family, his world. He shook his head as if to shake the thought from his head and walked back inside. When he got back into the maternity ward he walked passed the nursery and noticed the babies weren't in there .Quickening his step he made it to Raven's room .He heard her humming softly from outside the door. He lingered a few seconds more just listening and taking it all inches quietly let himself back in the room as Raven looked up and smiled .Where you been sugar she whispered Well I let you sleep and had my nicotine fix and then went to see these beautiful angels he told her as he reached for his daughter out of the hospital's islet and cradled her in his arms .Her eyes wide and glassy like all newborns she just stared up at him. Raven had just finished feeding her when he came in which is why she was in the isolette .She began feeding Wyatt right after Jordan walked in.Do you need anything sweetheart he murmured as he inhaled the baby smell of his daughter. Some water would be great she answered as she switched Wyatt to her other breast. Jordan stood and balancing his daughter and reached into the bag Mark had brought in from Miguel. Have you eaten yet he whispered She shook her head .He handed her the bottle of water and sat down .He one hand texted Mark to go get them some non-hospital food and to make sure it was something nourishing but not greasy. He shifted Aislynne slightly in the crook of his arm and sat down in the rocker next to the bed. How are you feeling my belle he murmured Sore as fuck she told him And I feel raw .Did you tell the nurse he asked .She shook her head no .He hit the call button
