Soft identical cries came from the crib near Lucy's hospital bed.

Lucy groaned as she opened her eyes.

"I'll get them." Camila says softly, kissing her forehead.

Lucy nodded slowly as she yawned.

Getting up, Camila moves over to the crib and gently lifts the twins up.

Lucy rolled onto her side and sighed heavily.
Moving back over to Lucy, Camila sits down and smiles softly.

Lucy smiled tiredly. "How's Lauren?"

"She's okay, she has pneumonia." Camila says softly.

"Pneumonia? Couldn't that kill her?" Lucy asked, frowning.

Shaking her head, Camila sighs. "Only if it gets severe enough."

"Do you know what stage it's at?" Lucy asked. "Did you ask?"

"Ally said she was fine." Camila responds, looking down at the twins.

"Fine, that's vague." Lucy said.

The little girl was beginning to fuss, her bottom lip pouting out.

"She's hungry." Lucy said. "Pass her?"

Passing the baby to Lucy, Camila looked down at their sleeping son. "We should figure out their names."

"We should." Lucy nodded in agreement. She pulled her gown down and helped the little girl latch on.

"What about Lexa or Clarke for our daughter and Bellamy or Lincoln for our son?" Camila asks softly, looking at the older girl, she'd recently been watching The 100.

"Where did you come up with those names?" Lucy asked. "I think she looks like a Clarke."

Camila chuckles softly. "A show I've been watching. Oh, what if we combine Lexa and Clarke and name her Clexa?"

"No." Lucy shook her head. "That's a step too far. I think he's a Lincoln."

Nodding her head, Camila bites her lip. "Wanna watch The 100 with me on my phone?"

Lucy shrugged, looking down at her newly-named daughter.

Clarke blinked up at her tiredly as she nursed.

Lucy gently patted the little girl's back.

"Are you sure we can't name her Clexa?" Camila asks softly, she was dead set on the name.

"Positive." Lucy said.

Pouting, Camila looks at Lucy. "But whyyy?" she whines childishly.

"Because I don't want her to get bullied for her name." Lucy said.

"She wouldn't, but she will for a name like Clarke." Camila responds, still pouting.

"Clarke is a beautiful name... Clexa is a step too far." Lucy responded.

Groaning, Camila just looks down at her son. "I still like Clexa better."

Lucy rolled her eyes. "Whatever."

Clarke releases Lucy's nipple and releases a soft cry.

"Shh." Lucy rocked the little girl.

"She needs burped," Camila says softly.

Lucy nodded, she lifted the little girl up and gently patted her back.

A soft burp escapes the newborn and she slowly starts to fall asleep.
