Chapter 20
Regina walked into the beautifully decorated barn that they were having the wedding rehearsal dinner in and scanned the room looking for her best friend
"Hey! Why the long face babe" Kat said coming from behind Regina "are you nervous about seeing Robin?"
"No….I don't know I just don't know what I'm going to say"
"How about I'm sorry for being a twat come home?"
"I was not a twat I had a valid reason for being upset is he even here yet?"
"Indeed he is he's over there alone at the bar look miserable it's time to nut up or shut up my friend" Kat pats her on the shoulder and walks over to her fiancé who raises clinks his glass preparing to make a toast
"Ladies and gentleman I wanna make a toast first and foremost I just want to thank everyone for coming tonight and tomorrow it's crazy how the past couple of months of my life have changed if you would've told me 10 ½ months ago that today I would be marrying this gorgeous creature I would've laughed in your face I mean look at her she's so beautiful and yet I don't think she even realizes how beautiful she is and thanks to our two best friends Robin and Regina for bringing us together I'll never forget that drunken night at the rabbit hole I ended up with the girl of my dreams while you two ended up with your precious gifts that our due any day now because of a one night stand gone bad" everybody laughed and Regina looked completely mortified she looked up and saw Robin staring at her longing for her "We want to thank you two we will forever be in your debt when Austin's mother left I didn't know what I'd do being a single parent then when I see Kat and my son together and how they click and how she's the mom he's always wanted I can see that I made the right choice so Kat my love this toast is for you may we be happy and may we be enough I love you" He leaned in and kissed a sobbing Kat
"I love you too"
Regina sat there twiddling her thumbs not wanting to face reality when she heard a soft voice behind her
"Regina?"
She turned around and saw Robin standing there with his hands in his pockets
"Robin Hi"
"Do you mind if I sit down?"
"Of course have a seat" He sat next to her
"So how have you been? I heard Zelena had her baby a little girl?"
"Yes her name's Charlotte she's beautiful and I've been okay I guess I can't really sleep anymore"
"Because of the pregnancy?"
"Mostly yes how have you been doing?"
"Truthfully I've been terrible I can't sleep I can barely eat I've just been sick about this whole thing Regina I miss you so much I miss us I miss being near you Regina I'm so sorry it didn't mean anything I love you please Regina let me come home let me be there for you please….." She stared at him "Regina? Please say something anything?"
"My water just broke" She stared at him shockingly
"What!? Are you sure?" Robin said getting up
"Either that or I just peed on myself!" She said getting up "Please Robin don't make a big deal out of this let me just tell Kat I'm leaving"
"No we're leaving let me go get your coat" he runs off and she walks discreetly as she can over to Kat
"Kat it's been fun but I need to go now"
"What why what's happening!?"
"My water sorta kinda broke"
"Oh! Show time! LJ get my coat! Regina's in labor!" She shouts at him and he runs to do as he's told
"What!?" Regina shouted "you can't leave its your wedding rehearsal! Hello you're getting married tomorrow"
"Sweetie none of that matters right now we need to get you to the hospital to pop out those babies! Now let's go" she says taking Regina's hand and dragging her outside
"God! It feels like lava is trying to come out of my vagina!" Regina says laying on her side in the hospital bed
"I know babe its going to be over soon just breathe!" Kat says rubbing her back
"I got you some ice chips sweetheart" Robin say handing them to Regina as she starts to feel another contraction
"Ugh! I don't want any freaking ice chips Robin!" She says swatting them out of his hand and instantly felt bad " I'm sorry honey I know you're trying"
"I'm right here I'm not going anywhere" Robin grabs her hand
"Gah! Shit!" She squeezes his hand "Its like a chainsaw is going off in my ovaries!" Regina screams
"Hey! Sorry I'm late! How far along is she?" Zelena says walking into the room
"Hey!" Regina says sitting up "What are you doing here? Where my Charlie?"
"Still not her nickname and she's with the nanny I came as soon as I heard"
"Where's mom?"
"She's um…..she said she'll be here a little later Regina…..dad's in the hospital"
"What? Why?"
"He's sick…..apparently he has cancer…..it just took a turn for the worst"
Regina breaks down sobbing "What? No! He said he had more time it can't be the end not yet!"
"Regina look at me I need you to calm down okay? We need to keep your pressure low everything is going to be okay daddy's a strong man he'll get through it" Zelena says rubbing her back
She wipes away her tears and lays back and trys to relax the best way she can "Mmmm" she grabs her stomach and starts breathing through the contraction "Kat? What are you still doing here I've been in labor for 9 hours its 4 in the morning go home today's your wedding day"
"I can't leave you or my god kids I dont want to miss anything"
"Well then I'll draw you a picture please go I'm fine I have Robin and Zelena we'll call you when they arrive go enjoy your big day! Take as many pictures as possible"
"You're sure about this?" Kat says
"Go get married babe"
"I love you!" Kat bends and gives her a hug "Call me as soon as you pop out the kids please!" she says grabbing LJ and running out of the room
"So how far along are you?" Zelena asked getting comfortable in the chair
"About 6 ½ centimeters I just wish they realized they're being evicted" Regina looked down at her belly "You can't live here anymore get out!"
"Regina calm down please you're going to make the nurses come in!" Zelena says
"Well good! Maybe they can light a fire and smoke them out!" She groans loudly getting another contraction "Its like they're coming every other minute now Robin can you call the nurse please"
"Of course darling" he gets up and pages their nurse and a couple of seconds later the nurse walks in
"What seems to be the problem?"
"My contractions are coming every other minute last time they checked it was 6 ½ centimeters over an hour ago can you see how far I am?"
"Sure of course sweetie why dont you lay back and I can see" Regina lays back and kicks her feet up "Alright it seems….oh wow honey your at 9 ½ centimeters! You're about to become a mama!" She gets up and throws away her gloves "I'll go get the doctor so we can get you pushing" She smiles and walks out the door
Robin smiles at Regina "We're about to meet our babies are you ready?"
"I can't wait to see if they look like us"
"I love you Regina" Robin says looking into her eyes
"I..love you too" Regina says and Robin leans down to give her a kiss
"I HATE YOU!" Regina says yelling through the pain at Robin as she tries to push baby number one out "You did this to me!"
"Regina just calm down please you dont mean that" Robin says holding her hand as she pushes
"Oh yes I do! You're never touching me again! My vagina is going to be ruined after this you just wait and see"
"Alright Regina I'm going to need another strong push okay you think you can do that for me" Dr Hopper asks
"Yeah I think so"
"Come on Regina another push your doing so great" Robin said
"DON'T TELL ME WHAT TO DO!" Regina snaps at him
"You're doing so good babe" Zelena says as she holds her other hand "You're almost finished"
"You're a terrible liar!" Regina yells
"Alright here's another contraction I need you to push when I say go okay?" Dr Hopper instructed Regina "Ready…..go" Regina pushed as hard as she possibly could "Alright you're crowning!"
"Oh GOD!" Regina screams
"Alright the babies head is out now I need a little more out of you okay? Come on you can do it!" She pushes again harder and feels the baby fumble out of her and feels a momentary relief "Alright baby number one is out and it looks like its… A boy! Congrats! Now you can rest for a little bit but when the next contraction hits we're back in business okay?"
"I have a son!?" Robin yells "I HAVE ANOTHER SON!" He cheers
Regina feels tears streaming down her face "Is he healthy? Is he okay?"
Robin looks over at the screaming baby boy "He's wonderful Regina he's perfect"
"Alright and we're getting another contraction now you know the drill lean forward push down ready? And…..go" Regina leans forward and pushes as hard as she can she begins to feel the burning sensation again so she can tell she's crowning " alright Regina you're crowing! A little more you can do it" She pushes down even harder as she feels the head come out "Okay the head is out your almost done Regina you're about to be the mother of two healthy babies"
"I can't! I can't push anymore" Regina cries
"Baby yes you can you can do this you're a strong and beautiful woman you can do it" Robin says
"He's right sis your almost done just a little while longer we're right here" Zelena encouraged her sister
"Alright are you ready? Okay here we go ready? Go" She pushed with everything she had left in her until she felt relief it was only when she heard a cry feel the air that she realized her baby had been born "Its a baby girl!"
"I can't believe it! I have a little girl!" Robin said running around hugging Zelena twirling her in the air " a boy and a girl! Wow this is a dream come true"
" Is she healthy?" Regina asked sobbing
"Yes Regina they're both healthy and waiting to meet their mommy" Dr Hopper smiled
"Can I ..can I see them?" Regina asked
"Of course I'll have the nurse bring them over to you"
She watched as the nurses brought her two babies over to her and gently laid them in her hand "Oh my god" she looks up at Zelena and Robin with tears in her eyes "I'm a mother …..I'd never thought I'd have this Zelena why didn't you tell me I'd feel this way?"
"Its just something you had to feel on your own little sister so what are these beautiful little creatures names!?" Zelena asked
Robin grabbed their son and began rocking him "Well this little guys name is Ryden Henry James Locksley"
"And this little princesses name is Rylee Olivia Jayne Locksley"
"Oh that's just so precious hello my little RJ" she caresses her nieces cheek
"Oh no that unacceptable its bad enough she's the only girl you're not giving her a boys nick name"
"Oh because Charlie is so much better" Zelena argued
"Women you can't win little man that's the first lesson that daddy taught you" he says bouncing his son"
"Oh shut up let me see my son please?" They did a trade off "Wow you are as handsome as ever you're your daddy's twin you look nothing like me but you still are the most gorgeous little boy I've ever seen I can't wait till you meet your grandma and grandpa they're just going to melt"
"You guys made some cute kids" Zelena cooed
"Yeah we did" Robin smiled at Regina "I love you" He leaned in and kissed her lips
"I love you more" She smiled at him
"So I guess it's safe to say that you guys are back together" Zelena glanced between the two of them
"Yes you can say that" Regina said
"I've been meaning to give you something " Robin said reaching into his pocket and pulled out a little black box "I've been carrying this around for over a month it's starting to get heavy this is what I was working the overtime for" he hands her the box while Zelena grabs the baby in Regina's arms " I dont want to go to sleep another night without calling you my wife so please Regina marry me"
She opens up to find a simple 5 carat diamond ring with a silver band she starts crying immediately "Yes! Yes! Of course I'll marry you!" She grabs his face and kisses him over and over again as he takes the ring out and places it on her finger
"There right where it belongs" Robin smiled and kissed her cheek
