Melwood's Family

Chapter 6

Melissa's POV
     We got back to the house and I made spaghetti. Avery is hilarious to watch her eat spaghetti  it gets all over her face and her clothes. When she was done I stripped her of her clothes and put them in the laundry room. I grabbed two plastic bags and we headed upstairs to get a bath, but before that we talked about Comic-Con.
Melissa: We have to talk about Comic-Con. Anna has to come with us and we wanted to know if you guys wanted to also.
Avery: Are the people who take pictures going to be there?
Melissa: Yes, but we will protect you.
Alexa: I am okay with going.
Ashton: What are we going to do all day?
Melissa: With the media going crazy and how our outing went today. You are each getting a security guard. If we are not able to go with you guys and you leave the house you will have a security detail with you and that is a nonnegotiable. So with that being said you will have a security detail with you, but other than that my mom is going to stay with you guys. She will accompany you out of the hotel those days and you will probably be at the convention center.
Ashton: Okay lets do it.
Melissa: Avery we will see if you can be close because I don't want you to not be with us.
Avery: Okay I will go as long as I can be close to you mommy and daddy.
Alexa: When is Comic-Con? Are they going to be able to tell you are pregnant?
Melissa: It is in a month so I will be around two months pregnant and hopefully it will not be that noticeable. We have to go in and get fitted for our outfits soon.
Anna: I don't remember the outfit I picked for Comic-Con. I just hope I didn't pick a crop-top.
Melissa: It will be fine I am going to give Avery a bath and put her to bed.
     After I put Avery to bed I went downstairs and I booked a photo shoot for some family photos. Chris and I already talked about it and we decided that we were going to do a professional photo shoot for the girls and get some family pictures. They are coming in a week and I am excited to see how they turn out. When I finished with the photo shoot I went to the kitchen to find the older girls and Chris throwing whip cream at each other. When they saw me they stopped dead in their tracks. I was upset until Anna threw some on me. Naturally I had to get her back and the dogs loved it. We ran around the kitchen throwing whip cream at each other. The next thing I know Chris caught me and I couldn't get out. So I opted for a different route instead I caught him in a kiss. He melted into me and we just stood there totally in a trance. The girls saw this as the perfect opportunity to douse us with whip cream. I started to laugh and so did Chris. He went after Anna and caught her to. Tickling her we all started to tickle her to a point that she was on the ground getting tickled and the dogs were licking her clean. The laughter kept going from there on and Chris caught my eye. All the doubt I had from the past days left when the girls were all laughing and he could tell. This time he went in for the kiss and it was everything we were standing in the middle of the Kitchen drenched in whip cream kissing and then the girls devoured us in a hug and we all ended on the ground again. Chris and I sent the girls up to go shower and go to bed.
We cleaned up the kitchen and talked about telling the girls the biggest surprise we had yet and how we were going to tell the producers about the babies. At about 2 in the morning Avery was crying and we both went in there to see what was wrong. She was having a night terror and that lasted about thirty minutes. She finally went back to sleep on Chris' chest and anytime we tried to move her she cried. She ended up sleeping with Chris and I in our bed and I thought of the perfect way to tell the girls about the twins.
Three weeks later
Melissa's POV
     It has been three days since the night of Averys night terror and she hasn't had one since. Today we have our Comic-Con fitting and then we are going to sit down with each of our daughters and design there rooms together. We have ten minutes till we need to leave to get to the studio. The way we are doing it this year is everyone is going from all the shows and we are all going to get fit together. I am extremely excited to see all my friends again and for Anna to meet them all. She is the youngest actor of these shows and I can tell she is imitated by this fitting. The outfits she is going to be trying on are both crop-tops and she is still afraid she is going to get judged on her scar. I am intimidated because it will be a lot of people and we are bring Avery with us. She will probably stay on Chris' arms and hopefully she will adjust well to the people. My baby bump is starting to be more noticeable and is sticking out because there are twins in there. I picked a more roomy out fit so hopefully it won't be as noticeable. Ten minutes later we are out the door and on our way to set. We have everyone including Izzy and hopefully this goes smooth. The only people who know that I am pregnant are Chris and the girls and Chyler. Before we get their we tell Avery she has to keep the baby a secret and she has been good about it recently so hopefully she won't blab. When we got their Anna grabbed Izzy and Chris grabbed Avery. When we got inside everyone was there. I could tell Anna was overwhelmed and so could Izzy she was standing right next to her leg and putting pressure on half her body. I whispered some encouraging words in her ear and she stood a little taller after that. We headed to the half of the room with the girls. Chyler sought us out and asked me how I felt. I told her I was fine and she took Anna and led her through the crowd to the supergirl cast. She immediately calmed down in Chyler's presence and I was glad of that. Chris headed to a group with all the guys and Avery was hiding in his chest. She was also scared, but Chris' hand rubbed her back and that calmed her down. I headed over to the girls and we started talking.
Chris' POV
     I took Avery over to the side with all the boys and she was shy until she met Jeremy.
Chris: Hey Jeremy how are you?
Jeremy: I'm good
Mehcad: Who is this?
Chris: This is Avery. She is the youngest of Mel and I's daughters.
David: Really I didn't  know we would get to meet them yet. How old is she?
Chris: She is five.
Jeremy: She is precious. How long does she have to wear these casts for?
Chris: A little more than 6 weeks left. She is struggling with that bit she wants to play but she really can't transport her self anywhere and she never wants to be carried.
    At this point everyone has congregated around Chris and Avery.
David: I have a sharpie shall we sign her casts? Can we sign your casts Avery?
Avery: Can they daddy?
Chris: I don't see why not just don't tell your mommy.
Melissa's POV
     I have been catching up with my girls and Chyler has introduced Anna to almost all the girls. She seems to be okay we are all in a big circle and Izzy is getting a lot of attention. Anna let her just be a normal dog and she took her vest off, but she has not strayed from her yet and she is trying to watch her closely and she is very alert. I looked over and all the guys were congregated around Chris and Avery.
Caity: She has all those boys wrapped around her little finger.
Melissa: Shall we go see what they are doing.
All the girls: We should.
     We all headed over to the boys and Avery looked happy. She was way out of her comfort zone, but she seemed happy. When I took a look at her she had sharpie all over her casted arm and leg. The room went silent when they saw me. All I could do was laugh.
Avery: Mommy look the flash. (She said as she pointed towards Grant.)
     Everyone laughed and I couldn't help but smile at my daughter.
Melissa: Who has the Sharpie? If she is going to have names all over her I get to put mine on there to.
     We all laughed again and in the next five minutes she had the casts of all four shows signatures on her arm and leg.After she had all the signatures on her casts we started the fittings. It was a big fashion show. Four people went back at a time and changed into their outfits for Comic-Con.
