Agamotto had just been tucking Vernon in for the night after reading him a bed time story. Just as he turned the light off and closed the door to his room, a knock was heard at the front door. The old god wasn't expecting any visitors today, so he took his time walking down the hall. The last person he was expecting to see was his nanny looking slightly disheveled and out of breath.
"Sir! Sir, you're needed at the medical ward. It's time!" She said with a smile as she took a step to the side, allowing the old god to sprint past. Should he be running? Probably not.
But Donna needed him.
The heart rate monitors hooked up to the head councilwoman were steady as he eyes began to flutter open. It had been months since she had arrived and finally the day had come. When her eyes finally opened, Donna was thrilled to see her husbands handsome face next to her. She grabbed onto one of his hands and squeezed tightly.Â
“Hey....” Donna said before clearing her throat. She hadn’t spoken in so long, it took a second for her voice to warm up. Agamotto has since kissed her forehead and moved her bangs out of her face as a few nurses bustled around them preparing.Â
The birth was rather quick compared to what she endured with Vernon. When all was said and done and the nurses were leaving the room, Agamotto was on the bed snuggling with his wife, and the two little newborns that laid on her chest.Â
“I need to redo the nursery....” The old god chuckled, brushing Donna’s sweat soaked hair from her face and placing kisses on her head, cheeks and lips. “I should paint half of it purple and half of it green.” He chuckled, hoping to make her smile. It worked. She had leaned her head towards him and kissed him on the lips once again.Â
“I know you had a few names in mind, and this is the perfect scenario.... one little boy and one little girl.” He smiled as his hand rubbed on the backs of the twins.Â
“Welcome to the family, Mira and Leon.”Â
Twenty minutes. They had been a part of this word for twenty minutes, and Donna now had three reasons to be the greatest mother on the planet instead of two. Of course it was a shock to them both, but no one had ever really checked to see if it were twins or not because they were being so cautious not to check the sex of the baby.... well, babies.
"They're perfect..... hello Mira..... hello Leon." The head councilwoman smiled as he thumb rubbed the cheek of each twin. Both children seemed to instantly recognize their mothers voice and gave what looked like little smiles.
"I can't wait to see their eye colors.... what their hair grows out to be....." Donna began rambling a bit before sighing, leaning over and kissing both little heads. Realization struck the young mothers face and she turned her head to Agamotto.
"Vernon's still asleep, right? You put him to bed before you came?"
"Of course I put him to bed, and the nanny should still be with him now." The old god smiled down at his growing family. He was so excited to bring Donna and the twins home for his son to meet in the morning.
After promising that she would take it especially easily for the next few weeks, Donna, Mira and Leon were released from the medical ward. Agamotto pushed the wheelchair Donna rode in, one twin in each of her arms. They saw several council members on their way to the elevator, excited to meet the newborns. However they knew the parents were exhausted, and just wanted to return home, so they smiled and waved the couple on their way.
Back in the apartment, Agamotto had just settled Mira into her crib.... after conjuring a second crib. The little girl yawned widely before snuggling into her blanket. Agamotto could've cried at the sight, but instead he smiled, kissed her forehead, and closed the nursery door behind him.
Donna had gotten into bed since he had left, and the old god waisted no time is getting into his own pajamas and joining her. The family of five, together at last.
