Double Trouble (Pt. 1...Maybe)
Prompt from @aryn-choices (Happy birthday dude!!): 293. âTwins? WeâreâŚweâre having twins?!â
Pairing: Kaitlyn x MC (Emma)
Iâve been sitting on this request for a while, but I really wanted to get it out for Kaitlyn Appreciation Week (and Arynâs birthday!), so hopefully, itâs not shit!
May turn this into a series if I get enough requests and inspirationâŚwe shall see! Anyway, enjoy!
Making toast early Sunday morning, Emma felt a swift kick to her stomach. Rubbing the spot, she looked down. âGood morning peanuts,â She laughed sleepily. âPlease tell me you arenât inheriting your momâs hatred of mornings. I need some company before ten oâclock.â
"I donât hate mornings.â Pushing off the wall, Kaitlyn staggered half-awake into the kitchen. Watching her wife talk to her stomach was one of her favorite things. âWhy didnât you wake me?â
âIâm just making toast, babe,â Emma replied cheerfully. âI wanted you to sleep, itâs only seven.â
Kaitlyn pulled out a chair for her wife, gesturing to it before moving to make herself some coffee. âI know, but I want to help you, you know? Youâre the one doing all the work, the least I can do is get up early to make you breakfast.
Emma stared at her wifeâs back lovingly. She knew Kaitlyn loved her, but at the same time, she was stillâŚwell, Kaitlyn. Sheâd expected the helpful-before-ten-oâclock attitude to wear off after a few months at the most â not that Emma minded. She was always the early bird in their relationship, finding peace in the quiet solitude of the mornings.Â
She still wasnât quite over the shock of seeing her wife up this early, despite the fact that sheâd been getting up by at least eight-thirty every day for the last nine months. But she understood. Kaitlyn was just as excited as she was to be a mom, and the fact that they were having twins, according to Kaitlyn, made it all the better.
âKait, wait up!â Emma panted, resting her hands on her knees. âWhy are you running?â
She reached the end of the hall before realizing Emma wasnât next to her and turned around. The smile lighting up her face was contagious, and Emma shook her head fondly. âBabe, whatâs gotten into you?â
âSorry, Iâm just excited!â Well, that much was obvious. She was practically vibrating.Â
After finally catching her breath, Emma stood up and brushed Kaitlynâs hair out of her face. âIâm excited, too, sweetie, but I only run when Iâm being chased, okay?â
She snorted, but acquiesced, taking Emmaâs hand and pulling her down the hall. âFine, but you can speed walk! I wanna find out if weâre having a Katie or a Keith!â
She was so focused on leading Emma through the door of the doctorâs office, she didnât notice the face Emma pulled at the names. âKaitlyn Liao, I am not naming my child Keith!â
Kaitlyn nodded mock-seriously. âOf course not. Now come on, letâs sign in already!â
âOkay, okay!â Emma chuckled, deciding to table the name discussion for a later date. She signed in at the reception desk and the two women sat down, both shifting nervously in their seats.
It felt like hours before finally, the door opened. âEmma Liao?â
Kaitlyn jumped up. âYes, thatâs us! I mean, her! Thatâs my wife!â
Emma locked eyes with the nurse and rolled her eyes jokingly. The nurse winked back before gesturing behind her. âIf youâll just follow me.â She led them down a hallway to the last room on the left. She handed Emma a gown to put on before pointing to the examination chair. âGet comfortable, Mrs. Liao. The doctor will be in shortly.â
Emma nodded in thanks, waiting for her to close the door before disrobing.
Kaitlyn wolf-whistled. âYouâre about to be the hottest MILF ever! You know that, right babe?â
Emma laughed, hiding her blush. âI donât know, Kait, I think youâll give me a run for my money.â She pulled the gown on and hopped onto the examination chair, resting her feet in the stirrups.Â
Kaitlyn stared between her wifeâs legs for a moment before snapping herself out of it. âIâm serious, Em! All the kids are gonna love you, and when they get older theyâll all wanna bang you, and little Keith will be so embarrassed that Iâll be his favorite! Itâs a win-win!â
Emmaâs eye twitched, but Kaitlyn was saved from her wifeâs wrath by Dr. Jones knocking on the door. âCome in!â She said sweetly, shooting Kaitlyn one last glare.
He stood next to Emma with a smile and opened her chart, then asked a couple of routine questions and gave a brief exam. Jotting down a few notes he closed the folder and looked up, âSo, any other concerns? Howâs the morning sickness?â
âI havenât really had much recently. Been kind of tired, but Iâm sure thatâs typical, right doc?â She asked, side-eying Kaitlyn jokingly.
He lightly laughed when Kaitlyn shot him a pleading face. âIt is, but you should still probably rest more.â Â
"Thatâs exactly what I said!â Kaitlyn whined.
Sitting down on a stool Dr. Jones chuckled.  "Ok how about we get to the fun part?â When the couple nodded he turned the computer on and applied some gel to Emmaâs stomach. Seconds later a black and white image appeared on the screen displaying a grainy image with two fuzzy shapes next to each other. ââŚOh.â
Kaitlyn jerked her head away from the monitor, a look of panic on her face. âOh? What do you mean, oh?â
Dr. Jones just smiled calmly. âCongratulations, you two. Looks like youâre having twins!â
Tears welled up in Emmaâs eyes. âTwins? WeâreâŚweâre having twins?!â
Kaitlyn covered her mouth in shock. âOh. My God.â Suddenly, she jumped out of her seat, scaring the roomâs other two occupantâs half to death. âKatie and Keith!â She paced the room, bouncing with every step. âOh my god, babe, do you know what this means? Itâs like a two-for-one sale! We wanted two and now weâre gonna have two and you only have to go through this whole pregnancy and labor thing once! And we donât have to worry about finding another donor and paying for the procedure again and-â She glanced at Emmaâs bemused face and quickly backtracked. âI mean, thatâs definitely not important right now â we can talk about that later â but oh my god, babe! Twins! Weâre having twins!â
Emma laughed, wiping her eyes. âWeâre having twins.
After Emma thought about it, Kaitlyn had kind of been right. Sure, she was gonna have to pop out two babies back to back, and theyâd have to spend twice as much money on basically all the necessities, and she felt like an over-inflated bouncy house at the momentâŚ
Emma shook the thought away and directed her attention to Kaitlyn. âHey, babe, remember that time you thought our kids were a discount sale?â
Playfully rolling her eyes, Kaitlyn opened the refrigerator. âWhat do you want for breakfast, wife?â
âOh, ham and cheese omelette? With kale, so itâs healthy?â Emma pleaded, fluttering her eyelashes.
"What else?â Kaitlyn laughed out.
She rummaged around in the pantry before emerging triumphantly, ingredients in hand. âAnything else?â
Kaitlyn raised her eyebrow. âReally? Youâre eating for three and thatâs all you want?â At Emmaâs bashful expression, she grabbed a container of fruit salad from the fridge and handed it to her wife with a fork.
Emma pouted as she stabbed a grape. "I couldâve gotten that. Iâm not due for another three days and Dr. Jones said-â
âI know you couldâve, babe,â Kaitlyn said soothingly, taking a sip of her coffee. âOne gourmet breakfast, coming up!â
Emma watched with a smile as Kaitlyn made exaggerated motions with her spatula, adding a little finesse with each ingredient she threw in. âGod, youâre gonna make such a great mom,â she sighed wistfully.Â
Kaitlyn grinned to herself, focusing on the task at hand â the last thing she wanted to do after finally convincing Emma to sit and rest was burn everything. âThanks, Em, so will-â She was cut off by a gasp coming from her pregnant wife. She spun around quickly, entire body tense. âEmma?â
Emma took a deep breath, meeting Kaitlynâs wide eyes. âI think my water just broke.â
The spatula clattered to the floor.
