After I went home Dominic called me right when I got into bed, he really cheered me up and made me feel special. The side of him I have to cry just to get out of him came out without me doing anything. He sent me some pictures of him before I went to bed and I slept peacefully. I woke up around three that morning feeling strange, like I was in a pool. I slapped Dominic, "wake up you whore, these demon spawns are gonna rip my vagina open if you don't get me to the hospital!" I shouted serious but jokingly, "you didn't have to slap me, lil miss rude awakening." He joked back hoping up to get dressed. He rushed me to the hospital, getting on the phone with everyone he knew, even his mom. Great, meet the parents during labor, I'll be like 'we met in sch-schooooool' while I pushed. Yeah, that'd be real great. The nurse and doctor got me sat up and prepared me for labor. Ben, Yukon and his girlfriend were first to arrive, followed by Bailey, Ben's mom and Dominic's mom. Before they asked me to begin pushing the whole room was filled with parents, friends, family of family and nurses. Everyone except Dominic was asked to go to the waiting room until they arrived. Dominic held my hand and with the a trash can, I began pushing like I was constipated and pushed my hardest until I heard the tiny faint cry of one already here, DJ; 6 pounds even. After 5 more pushes and Dominic looking down to see what was going on and puking Anthony was here weighing in at 6 pounds and 5 ounces.
For the first time Dominic held DJ and Anthony he seemed to realize he was now a dad. In that moment that he looked down at DJ and DJ looked up at him Dominic changed, right there in front of me. Dominic was emotional around DJ and Anthony, they looked so much like Dominic. Dominic was mixed with black and white and I was white, but yet they had more of Dominic's skin than mine. Ben and everyone else came in and held the babies. Yukon nearly fainted from not knowing what to do when Anthony started crying, "oh, Jesus man, good luck with handling the crying, bro." He chuckled passing Anthony over to Ben. "Paisley will handle it," Dominic joked, "and what are you going to be doing while I'm bouncing two kids on my hips?" I snapped, "sleeping," he joked. "You will sleep when I say you can, mr. Sneaky sneaky, they may have came out of me but your penis made them so they're half yours." I joked at him. "Paisley, what did it feel like to give birth?" Ben asked curiously, "like death, death and constipation." I replied without hesitation. Ben and Dominic laughed, "in perspective of guy pain what you describe it?" Dominic asked, "wrapping your ball sack around your face two times while you push out Taco Bell." Yukon, Ben and Dominic both reached for their man parts and making pain noises, "Paisley, go easy. We can't handle that." Ben said recovering. Dominic's mom came in looking upset, I figured that would happen. "Dominic Anthony, son, you better explain why I haven't met this girl." Dominic blushed and took her outside the room to talk privately. "She seems like a very loving person." I said breaking the awkward silence and Ben laughed, "she's a really sweet lady, given the circumstance of her just now finding out she's a grandmother without meeting the mother beforehand, yeah, she's really 'happy'." The nurse took the babies to the nursery with the other babies to sleep and so I could too. Dominic came back in with a much happier looking mom behind him, "it's nice to finally meet you, Paisley. I'm Dominic's mom but honey, call me whatever you want."
I got my sleep and most of the people either went home or to a nearby hotel for the night. Ben spent much of his time down looking at DJ and Anthony, he was in awe that those two came from me. He didn't want to leave them alone. Dominic was back and forth from the room to cafeteria, I finally just told him to go out and eat and to bring me something back. He smirked with mischief as he walked out, 'that son of a bitch is gonna get something great and bring me his left overs,' I thought to myself. The door opened but I was too busy watching music videos to notice who, "shawty" the name put the smile on my face that I thought had died months ago, "yes?" I responded instantly, "close your eyes" he smirked.
Dominic went crazy with bringing me food, he got me some flowers and put up flame less candles on my tray. I was too excited about going home to really be hungry, I couldn't wait to watch DJ and Anthony start growing up and playing together. "I'll eat when I get home, Dom. I just want to get out of here and go home." The nurse came in with a wheelchair and set it aside until I got dressed, she went to get DJ and Anthony so I could dress them. "We don't have car seats, Dominic. We didn't even get a baby room for them at home." I whined feeling bad, "Ben got us covered on car seats, don't worry." Dominic smirked again. The nurse rolled me out in the lobby while the valet pulled Dominic's car around. Dominic carried Anthony and my bag while I had DJ, they were easy to tell apart, DJ had Dominic's freckle on his right cheek, just under his eye and Anthony didn't. Dominic helped me inside the house and on the stairs. Once I got settled he led me in the spare room, keeping my eyes closed. He removed his hand and my mouth dropped, the room was baby blue on the walls with two big grey painted elephants next to each crib, the elephants had little signs around their neck with DJ and Anthony painted in cursive. The cribs were white with elephants on them in the inside, there was a changing area and next to it boxes upon boxes of diapers. The whole room was something you'd see in a magazine and want to do but didn't have the creative mindset to do so. It was beautiful and perfect for them, "who did this, Dom?" I asked in awe still, "remember when I said I was going to help Ben and his mom? Well Ben and I done this, I wanted to make it up to you for everything wrong I did to hurt you. Ben built you a rocking chair too." I smirked on the inside, "oh so where's my dentures and oxygen tank then?" I got into a feeble position, covered my lips over my teeth and said in a granny like voice, "granny has bad hips, she can't swing it like she used to back in the day when we wasn't walking to school barefoot in ten feet of snow." Dominic started dying of laughter, "oh god, Paisley stop please." I got back to my original stature and placed the babies in their cribs. "How about we put your broken hips to good use?" Dominic playfully winked at me, "you mean parental bam chicka wow wow?" I stood at the threshold seductively as I joked at him, "I'll show you bam chicka wow wow on that body," he joked back running to me and picking me up, he carried me to our room as I bit on his lip. He closed the door and we spent the night romancing.
To give you guys a better image of the characters I have the links, because I'm stupid and don't know how to post up the pictures. Sorry for making you switch back and forth. Dominic (yes, this is him) http://www.google.com/search?hl=en
Days turned into weeks and weeks turned into months, that's the best way I could describe this moment. DJ and Anthony had just started walking at 9 months, the same age I was when I first started walking and talking. DJ had this little thing to him about walking, he would only start walking to Dominic, he would hold my finger, point to daddy and go "mmmm!" He would stomp his feet in determination to get to Dominic. It made us laugh every time, Dominic loved the calf and knee attacks called hugs when he got home. Since the babies had been born Dominic had changed, we quit the arguing and the bickering, his accusations of cheating subsided to none. I could tell Dominic loved his sons and I wasn't going to take that away from him, even if he was tired from recording all day he still managed to get in the floor and roll around with them, he let them climb on his back and pull hair and on top of that he managed to keep me happy and spend time with me. Lets just say those 9 months of pregnancy must have been teasing Dominic.
