Disclaimer: I own nothing, wish I did…but then again if I did *sighs* Nothing would get done.

A/N: Again I thank you all. I am so sorry for not speeding it up a few notches...lol. My internet's not working right now so I have to go to the library, that is why the delay in my writing/uploading. I apologize but I promise to get someone to give me a swift kick in the a$$ to get me jump started…lol.

Chapter 47 Sara's POV

I cannot believe he just passed out on me, my big bad wolf taken down by double trouble. Ha!

"Gil." I call his name, while Doc checks his vitals.

"He's going to be fine." He looks up at me and smiles. "I guess it was a bit much for him to hear." I snort and roll my eyes. "So what do you say we get back to the little ones, huh?" I start to move from the cot; I want to help him up but I should know better and by the look Doc's giving me, says so too.

"So…twins, right?" Honestly I'm a little struck by the thought of two babies at once also but you don't see me fainting. Doc nods in agreement and sits down again.

"If you'll lie back down we'll get some pictures and measurement." He picks up the wand again and places it back on my belly. "Ah, as you can see here," He points to the screen. "By the look of things you are precisely three months along." He clicks on some buttons and I can see the circumference of their head, their spines, hearts and he turns on the sound. Two perfect heart beats; beating in harmony with each other.

"Wow…" I almost forget my questions. How could you not. "Hey, Doc?"

He looks up from the monitor and nods; as if to say I've got his attention.

"How can I be three months along when I just found out I'm pregnant?" He smiles at me.

"That my dear is because we are different species; part wolf and part human. Our incubation period varies between each. The canine is anywhere between three to four months and the human, as you know, is between nine to ten months; maybe sooner."

"But won't that mean my babies will be premature? Will they be at risk of complication or will they have too…"
"Sara, relax. They will be just fine I promise you." He chuckles. "They will be fully developed and mature enough to make it when the time comes.

Well that's a relief. I don't want to put my…our children in any danger.

"What about shifting? I mean will that harm them? Should I stay away from that?"

"As far as I know shifting won't hurt the babies, but I'd stay in human form." He seems to be thinking. "You can always ask your mother or another were that has carried children before. I'm sure they will be of more help than I am. As you know my lovely wife has given birth but her doctor was 'old school'; now a days, it's a whole new game out there…or so it seems. Be sure to eat a lot of protein or supplements that are equivalent to protein you three need, take your prenatal vitamins and of course be sure to take it easy." He hit a few more buttons and the printer suddenly started. I look down at the six black and white photos of our little ones.

I look up from the photos and it hit me.

"Hey, Doc?" I wait until he looks over at me again. "Would you happen to know their sex? I mean, it would be a shame not knowing, right? And…and to stock up on a few things wouldn't be so bad; you know before they come." Like watching a light switch being flipped on.

"I didn't even think about that."He grabs the wand and touches my abdomen again. "It has been a while since we had a pregnancy in the pack." A good thing he didn't wipe any of the gel off yet, as he starts to move the wand around again. "I do suppose that knowing their sex would be a big advantage. Having to buy diapers…clothes…and since I'm going to be filling the role as your personal physician. Are you planning on breast feeding or bottle. There are pluses and minuses to both you know."

"I don't know yet." I answer him as honestly as I can. I'm scared that I won't be as maternal as some women. How will I be a good mother, when the parents that raised me, after I was taken from my real ones, were the way they were?

"Don't worry you'll have a few more months to decide on what you want to do." He clicks on a button, I watch the picture freeze and he smiles at me. "Would you like to venture a guess?"

I stare at the screen and see two circles around, what I would guess is their genitalia.

"Ummm…"

"Sara?" Gil's voice croaks and he clears his throat. I look down at him and he looks around disoriented. "What happened? Did…" He jerks up and glances at the monitor and then at me. "Are they alright?" He places his head on my belly. We can still hear their heats beating and Gil smiles.

"They're fine. Sara is about to venture a guess at their genders." Doc answers.

Gil looks at me and arches his eyebrow. Like he wouldn't have even dared tried without me.

"Don't you dare look at me that way; I'm not the one who fainted."

"I did not faint or pass out for all argument purposes." Gil glances over at Doc then to me. "Men don't do that." I arch my brow.

"Well what do men do?" This should be good.

"We simply have too much blood rushing around our bodies and our thoughts get over stimulated…that we have to lay down and re-collect ourselves." What a load of shit, Ha!

"And what is it called when a woman needs to re-collect herself in a moment such as this?" He shrugs.

"She faints." Men! Before I can open my mouth I see Doc, move pretty fast, and the double doors open.

"What are you doing down here?" Catherine's voice echoes through the morgue. I wipe off my stomach, with the rag Doc was kind enough to leave before he made a clean get away, and finish righting myself.

"Are those pictures of the baby?" She holds out her hand and I give them up willingly. I wonder how long it will… "OH! MY! GOD! Are you serious?" Catherine looks at Gil, me and then back at the little black and white photos. "Twins? Really?" Gil smiles his boyish grin, the one that first made me fall deeper for him, and I nod. "Way to go." She hugs Gil. "You sly dog you." When she pulls back, she starts to laugh. "I mean that in the most loving way; reality being true or not."

I smirk when Gil frowns. Catherine helps me up and gives me a hug.

"I am so happy for you both." She pulls back and her eyes are glassy. "If you ask me…it couldn't happen to better and more deserving, loving people I know." I wipe my face because of the tears.

"I hate these hormones." I choke out and we laugh.

"So…" I look around the room and see most of the night shift waiting silently for our announcement. "As you all know Gil and I are married and have been for a little while now. And as you can see, from my bulge, we are expecting; that's why we came in early." I pull the photos out and hand them to my right; which is to Catherine.

I look at Gil. He is watching the pictures go around the room and nobody seems to notice our little baby has grown into two.

I notice Jim when he finally gets them. His face scrunches and then his eyes widen.

"Sara? Gil?" He breaks the silence and gets everyone's attention. His voice holds shock, excitement, wonderment and love. Jim looks back down. "Is this…are…are you sure…I mean…"

I can barely stand the emotions building in the room, and in my head the Jeopardy theme music starts to play.

"Yes, we're having twins!" Gil is the one who blurts it out.

Everyone starts to clap and talk at the same time. I heard the how's, what's, when's. I see some of the pack members bow their heads in respect and I can feel their love spread throughout the room; it is very emotional and a feeling of finally being home.
