Moonlight

37

So far, I am three human months along, meaning I am one werewolf month along. Two more months of kicking and morning sickness and I should be a mother!

"The heartbeats are strong," Dr. Moore explains. Did I just hear her correctly? Heartbeats?? "would you like to know the sexes?" She asks, typing away at her computer. Jack and I exchange looks for a moment. We both nod. "you are having two healthy identical little girls!" She exclaims. I slightly gasp, placing my hand on my face. Identical twin girls? I am honestly going to cry.

"Wait, what?" I mumble with tears in my eyes. Identical little girls?! I carefully listen to the machine as it records the heartbeats. Bu bump, bu bump, bu bump.

"Here's baby a, see, the head is here," she points to the slightly larger circle. "and here is the hands and feet." She points to the small circles on the screen, I look closely at the monitor, the baby's hand moved, she waved at me! "Here is baby b," she points to the second large circle, next to baby a. "the hands and feet seem to be touching baby a's."

I look at Jack, his mouth wide open. His fingers intertwine with mine.

"Close your mouth babe, you'll catch flies." I reply.

"Let me print this out for you, it's the perfect view of them and I will copy this to a CD disk for you." Dr. Moore explains as she pressing numerous buttons on her machine.

"Did I hear you correctly? Could you repeat that please?" Jack asks in disbelief.

I'm over the moon! Dr. Moore smiles politely and repeats herself. She tugs at each purple latex finger on her gloves, slowly pulling them off her fair toned fingers.

"You're having identical twins, two little girls." She repeats. "You can go ahead and get dressed now, Leah, we are done for the day." She adds. Tears fall from Jack's eyes. I look at the screen, two little white blobs squirm around.

"I'm going to be a dad!" He yells. I smile from ear to ear, my movement is limited right now due to an uncomfortable situation that I won't describe.

"I'm presuming you knew that before you came in Mr. Wilson." Dr. Moore mumbles before leaving the room.

"We're having two babies!" I exclaim, he wraps his arms around me. I couldn't be happier, I'm going to be a mom!!!

After the doctors, Jack and I devise a plan on how we are going to tell the pack. We are going to ask their suggestions for baby names, and come together to tell them that I'm having twin girls. Hopefully this works.

Jack walks outside to gather names from part of the group, while I stay inside and get names from the other part. I carefully walk downstairs and sit on the couch. I slowly lower my body to the couch to make sure I can get comfortable, this could take a while. I scroll mindlessly through my apps on my phone, waiting a moment before asking Ian's baby name ideas.

"Hey, Ian. I need baby name ideas." I mumble, before looking up from my phone.

"Lynn, Kairi, Michael, or JJ, short for Jack junior." He replies. I nod at his choices, not bad.

"Thanks." I reply before getting up to go ask the rest of the pack. Jack is doing the same.

"Hey Mel, I need some baby name ideas." I throw out there. She stops reading, looks at the ceiling, and replies,

"Either Jamie, Joshua, Sophie, or Hunter."

I move along to Leanne and ask the same question, she comes up with Brennan or Joshua.

Jack goes ahead and asks Cameron and Brent. He walks past me in the hall,

"Sienna, Alani, Grayson, Odette, Eden."
