Chloe�s OB/GYN, Dr. Sarah Campbell walks into the room and has a big smile on her face. She�s looking at the monitor and says, �Well you two, from what I see I�d say that Blake/Amanda will be making their debut within the next two weeks. I�m going to need to see you in my office every day from here on out, Chloe. I also want you to walk a little each morning�. Her beeper buzzes and she says, �Well, I�ve got to go. I�ve got a baby boy to deliver in about half an hour and need to get prepared for it. SO�.after Amanda gets you cleaned up, and gives you your pictures you are free to go Chloe. Everything is fine. If you need me just call my office and Kathy will get in touch with me. Or better yet, just call me on my cell phone. Please feel free to call me about anything that concerns you. That�s what I�m here for�.

Chloe smiles and says, �Sarah, thanks for everything. I�m happy, I�m anxious, I�m excited and yet I�m scared. It�s like my emotions are on overload�. Sarah smiles and takes Chloe�s hand and says, �Sweetheart, every mother-to-be experiences these feelings. This is a very emotional time in your life, especially with this being your first pregnancy. You know Chloe, there are a lot of Mothers-to-be that would love to be in your shoes right now�. Chloe looks puzzled but says, �Why is that Sarah�?

She smiles and says, �Most women give birth to one baby at a time. If they have a girl the first time around, they try again for a boy. Well, oftentimes they get another girl and have to keep trying for that boy. You�re having your boy/girl in one pregnancy. Although it�ll be a lot of work taking care of two babies instead of one, you�ve got a wonderful husband and your parents to help you out�. Chloe lovingly looks into Philip�s eyes, then over to Craig/Kate and says, �I sure do. They�re the best�.

Dr. Campbell takes Philip�s hand and says, �How�s Dad holding up�? Philip has a twinkle in those dreamy blue eyes of his and says, �I�ve been experiencing the same feelings as Chloe has. I�ve been worrying about passing out on her when she needs me the most�. Dr. Campbell says, �I� have complete faith in you. You/Chloe will come through the births of Blake/Amanda and will be great parents. Anyway, I�d love to stay and chat with you but I�m needed. Take care and I�ll see the two of you in my office day after tomorrow. Just call Kathy and tell her I want her to squeeze you in at around 10:00 AM, all right�? Philip says, �We�ll be there�. Chloe says, �Thanks again for everything Sarah�. She smiles then says, �You�re most definitely welcome. Now don�t hesitate to call if you need me�. She leaves.

Amanda says, �Here�s a towel to wipe the gel off of your tummy, Chloe. I�ll be right back with those pictures�. Chloe says, �Thanks Amanda�. She then turns to Philip and gives him the towel. She says, �Hubby, would you please do it for me�? He smiles then kisses her forehead and says, �I�d be more than happy to do it for you. I�ll do anything for you, my love�. So he gently wipes all of the gel off then Craig/Kate walk over to them.

Craig says, �Well you two, we�ve got a lot of work ahead of us to get your house finished, furnished, and you moved in before our precious Blake/Amanda arrive. I�m willing to work alongside you every day Philip to make that happen�. Philip says, �Thanks Dad! I don�t want Chloe doing very much and if you/Mom help out she won�t feel the need to.�. Chloe laughs and says, �Don�t count on it Hubby. Just because I�m as big as a house doesn�t mean I�m not gonna work right alongside you to make sure everything is ready for our little �punkins�.

Craig gets in Chloe�s face and says, �Laugh all you want, oh so beautiful and ornery daughter of mine. BUT the fact of the matter is is that all three of us will make sure you don�t do too much because we love ya� so very much. We don�t want to take any chances of your being hurt or overworked/overtired�. He kisses her cheek then says, �Dad loves you Chloe�. She smiles and says, �I love you too, Dad. I couldn�t have picked a more perfect Dad, and am just so lucky to have you in my life now�. She gets teary-eyed then Philip gently wipes them away.

Amanda comes back into the room and says, �I�m giving you 3 pictures of Blake and 3 of Amanda. That way you�ll have one of each for yourselves and one of each for both sets of grandparents as well�. Philip says, �Thanks so much Amanda�. Amanda says, �You�re welcome. Will the two of you do me a favor�? Chloe says, �What do you want us to do�? She smiles and says, �After you have Blake/Amanda and have had time to rest, will you please bring them by so I can see them�? Chloe looks at Philip and he says, �We�d love to�. Amanda says, �Well, I�'ve got to see my next patient, so you�re free to go now�. Philip helps Chloe up off of the bed then they, along with Craig/Kate leave.

~*~*~*~*~*~

Rob has been waiting in the Suburban for their return. He sees them coming out of the Hospital then opens the door for Chloe. She/Philip both get in then Kate/Craig do as well. Rob says, �Well Master�I mean Philip, is everything all right with the twins�? Philip puts his hand on Rob�s shoulder and says, �Thanks for asking Rob. Blake/Amanda are just fine and Dr. Campbell informed us that we�ll only have to wait another 1 to 2 weeks until they�re born�. Rob smiles and says, �Well, I know Charles, Leilani, and Marie will be excited to know this. Blake/Amanda will not only have all of their grandparents wanting to spend a lot of time with them, but the staff as well. Talk about spoiled�!

Chloe looks at Philip then they both just laugh. Rob says, �Well Craig, do you/Kate want to come to the Estate with Philip/Chloe, or do you want me to drop you off at your place�? Kate says, �We really need to do some things at the Estate and Lucas doesn�t need to be there by himself for too long while he�s recuperating. Will is quite a handful, and we need to get back�.

Rob pulls into the drive of Craig/Kate�s Estate then gets out to open the door for them. Craig is the first one out, but quickly goes over to Chloe�s side of the Suburban and gives her a kiss on the cheek. He says, �Call me if you need me, any time day or night�All right sweetheart�? She smiles then kisses him on the cheek and says, �All right Dad. Thanks for everything. I love you�. Craig says, �And I love you Chloe Baby�. He looks over at Philip then says, �Thanks for being such a wonderful husband to my beautiful daughter, and for being a good Father to my unborn grandchildren. I love ya� Son�. Philip says, �I love my wife/our babies and will always take good care of them. I love you too, Dad�.

Kate smiles then says, �All right you two, I second what Craig just said, and want to add one more thing. Please take it easy and don�t do too much of the work yourselves. Staff will be more than happy to help you, and we will too. So keep in touch. I love the two of you..and of course Blake/Amanda. Goodnight sweeties�. They say their goodbyes then Rob drives Philip/Chloe to the Kiriakis Estate.

~*~*~*~*~*~

Rob opens the door for them and Philip says, �Thanks Rob for taking us to the Hospital. I appreciate your doing this for us during your time off. I�ll make sure your next check has a little extra in it. Chloe/I are gonna spend the rest of the evening relaxing and enjoying each other�s company�. Rob smiles then says, �You�re more than welcome and I think I�ll take my wife some flowers. She loves flowers�. Chloe smiles and says, �Thanks again Rob. Have a wonderful evening with your wife�. They say their goodbyes then he leaves.

~*~*~*~*~*~

Philip/Chloe go into the house to find supper has been prepared and is on the table. He takes her in his arms then kisses her passionately. He looks into her eyes and says, �Are you hungry Mrs. K.�? She kisses his cheek then says, �I�m always hungry these days, Mr. K.�! She goes over to the sink to wash her hands as does he, then he pulls her chair out for her. He then sits down and serves her one of their favorite dishes�Fettucini Alfredo, with a green salad and garlic bread.

As they�re eating, he says, �Well what do you want to do tomorrow besides go to our Lamaze class�? She says, �I guess we need to buy one of those pads Tammy was talking about, or do we have one�? Philip gets up and says, �Wait a minute. I�ll be right back�. He runs into the exercise room to find there are several of them, then runs back into the dining room. He says, �We already have several because Mom used to exercise all of the time when we came here on vacation�. Chloe says, �Well then, I guess that�s one thing we don�t have to worry about�.

~*~*~*~*~*~

They finish eating then clear the table. She starts washing the dishes off while he puts the leftovers in the refrigerator. He�s finished then goes over to help her finish up. He reaches underneath the sink to get the Cascade then fills the cups then locks them. He closes the door then starts the dishwasher for her. She washes then dries her hands again, then gets in her spot as he wraps his arms around her.

She looks up at him and says, �I love being married to you Hubby. I guess we�d better enjoy what little time alone we have left before Blake/Amanda are born. We�re gonna be really busy Hubby�. He gently kisses her lips and says, �If we get too overwhelmed and need time alone, we�ll just give the grandparents a thrill and let them babysit. It�ll be good for us to get away and good for Blake/Amanda to spend time away from us�. Chloe says, �Leaving them for the first time will be difficult, I�m sure�. Philip says, �I know it will, but everything will be all right�.

~*~*~*~*~*~

Philip says, �Do you want to watch tv or just go to bed�? She says, �I really need to take a shower after having that gel all over my tummy. Would you like to take one with me? Then I�d really, really appreciate it if you�d rub my back and feet for me. What do you say�? He takes her by the hand and says, �I�d love to do all of those things for you. I�ll do anything for you my love�.

They head into the master bathroom, then take their shower. He dries her off, then himself. She puts on a nightgown, then he puts a pair of boxers on then carries her over to the bed. He places some pillows behind her back so she can sit up, then goes to the foot of the bed and starts rubbing her feet. When he�s finished he rubs her back, then they talk for a while and she falls asleep in his arms.

~*~*~*~*~*~

They get up and have breakfast, then spend most of the day at the new house. It�s getting late so Philip says, �Baby, we�d better think about getting ready for our Lamaze Class in about 45 minutes�. She smiles and says, �I�m kind of nervous, but excited as well. What about you�? Philip takes her hand then says, �Well I guess I�m more excited than nervous. I think it�ll be fun. We�d better go sweetheart�. So he takes her by the hand and they walk back to the Kiriakis Estate. Chloe is ready, as is Philip. He says, �I�ll be right back�. So he gets the pad, as well as a blanket and some pillows. They head out to the door then he opens the door of the Suburban for her and she gets in. He then places the pad, blanket, and pillow into the back seat. He gets in the truck and they leave.

~*~*~*~*~*~

After a short drive they are now at Kauai General Hospital. Philip smiles and says, �Well, are you ready Momma�? She smiles then says, �As ready as I�ll ever be Daddy�. So they go inside to find a sign pointing in the direction of the Lamaze class.

Chloe is holding Philip�s hand really tight, then they make their way into the room. Tammy Weston walks up to them and says, �Hi! I�m Tammy Weston! You must be Mr. & Mrs. Philip Kiriakis, right�? Philip smiles and says, �Right. This is my wife Chloe�. Tammy says, �Well, it�s nice to meet the two of you. It looks like you�re really close to your due date Chloe. When is the blessed event�? Chloe says, �Well Dr. Campbell seems to think it�ll be in 2 weeks or less�. Tammy says, �You�re having twins, right�? Philip smiles then says, �Yeah. We�ve already named them Blake/Amanda�. Philip says, �Chloe Baby, I need to go get our stuff and bring it in, so I�ll be right back�. So she smiles and says, �Be sure that you are Hubby�. He smiles then leaves.

Chloe says, �My husband was telling me that you�re gonna give us a tour of the birthing rooms, as well as the Nursery. Will we be doing that first or after the class is over with�? Tammy says, �I�m going to take you on the tour after the class is over. That way you can stay a little longer if you want to after everyone else has left. The Hospital doesn�t mind as long as we don�t disturb the new Mother�s or their babies�. Philip has come back into the room with the pad, blanket, and pillows in hand. He says, �Well, where should I put our things�? Tammy says, �Anywhere you like. Just go ahead and roll your pad out then get comfortable then I�ll be back in about 5 minutes�. She leaves.

Philip smiles then rolls their pad out on the floor. then throws the blanket on top of it. He reaches out for Chloe to come to him. She does, then he gently lowers her down on the pad. He sits behind her to give her support then wraps his arms around her. She says, �This should be an experience. I guess it�s a good thing I wore these really baggy pants and shirt. At least I�ll be able to move. I can�t believe how big I�ve gotten in the last few weeks. Remind me to ask Dr. Campbell how much she thinks the babies weigh when we see her tomorrow morning�. He keeps giving her little kisses on the back of her neck, then pulls her hair away from her cheek and kisses her again.

There are 3 other couples who've made it into the room. Michael/Lisa are one of those couples. Michael says, �Well if it isn�t Mr. & Mrs. K. How�s it going�? Philip says, �We�re doing just fine Mr. & Mrs. Mason. We had to go to the Hospital yesterday because Chloe was having a lot of discomfort as well as contractions. Chloe had a Sonogram done and it looks like everything is fine�. Chloe says, �I�m so happy to see the two of you. How�s your pregnancy going Lisa�?

Lisa says, �Well, I�ve got a couple of months to go but it�ll be nice to be able to see my feet again. I feel like I�m getting as big as a house�. Chloe laughs and says, �You think you feel as big as a house now, just wait until you get 2 weeks away from delivery�. Lisa laughs and says, �Well I�m sure I won�t be getting as big as you are right now because you�re carrying two little bundles of joy and I�m only carrying one�.

Tammy Weston comes back into the room and says, �I�d like everyone to get down on their pads then Philip, I�d like you to start by introducing yourself/your wife, then the rest of you follow suit�. Philip says, �Hi, everyone. My name is Philip Kiriakis and this is my beautiful wife, Chloe and we�re expecting fraternal twins in less than 2 weeks�. Michael says, �Hi, everyone. My name is Michael Mason and this is my beautiful wife Lisa, and we�re expecting our baby in 2 months�. Robert says, �Hi, everyone. I�m Robert Martin and this is my beautiful wife Sandra, and we�re expecting a baby girl any day now�. David says, �Hi, everyone. My name is David Hyachi and this is my beautiful wife Lena and we�re expecting a baby boy in 3 weeks�.

Tammy says, �So, let's get started! I�m sure all of you have seen women in labor huffing and puffing through clenched teeth�well they�re practicing the Lamaze technique of childbirth. Lamaze is much more than simple breathing techniques: It emphasizes pain management through relaxation and breathing exercises. The theory is that a woman in �labor� can condition her responses to contractions through breathing and imagery to minimize her pain. In this class you�ll learn and practice relaxation, visualization, breathing techniques, and comfort measures, as well as learn everything you always wanted to know about labor �.

This class will address normal labor, birth, and the early postpartum period, massage techniques to ease pain and enhance relaxation, comfort measures during labor, relaxation skills and breathing strategies, labor support�tips for the coach, communication skills, problems that could arise during childbirth, and background about epidurals and other anesthesia choices to enable you to make the best choice for yourself, breastfeeding and the early postpartum period, and you�ll see movies of several births in preparation of your own�.

So now that I�ve got that out of the way, I�d like the Daddy�s to help the Mommy�s lie on their sides. Make sure Mommy has pillows under her head so she can relax. Then once that�s done, I�d like the Daddy�s to gently rub the middle of Mommy's back as she relaxes�. Philip places the pillows on the pad then helps Chloe lie on her side. She lies there relaxing as he gently massages the middle of her back. He whispers, �How does that feel sweetheart�? She says, �MMM�that feels really good Hubby. I feel like I could fall asleep any minute now�. The Daddy�s continue massaging the Mommy�s backs for another 5 minutes.

Tammy says, �All right, now I�d like the Daddy�s to help the Mommy�s sit up, then the Daddy�s need to let the Mommy�s lean against you�. So Philip and the other Daddy�s do just that. Philip wraps his arms around Chloe and she sighs�.He whispers in her ear, �So you like that do you�? She turns around and says, �MMM�you know I do Hubby�. Tammy says, �Now I�d like for the Mommy�s to visualize something peaceful, and just relax�. . Philip can tell she�s totally relaxed. They do that for about 5 minutes.

They do some breathing exercises then Tammy says, �Well, that ends this part of the class. Now for the most fun part of all�If you�ll all get up and follow me, I�ll show you the birthing rooms as well as the Nursery. Just remember that there are babies that have just been born, and new Mother�s around. So if we could just be a little quietand not to disturb them, that�ll be great�.

So Philip helps Chloe up and everyone follows Tammy. Philip is holding Chloe�s hand and has a huge smile on his face. Chloe whispers, �Hubby, your dimples are something else when you smile that big. You�re really happy, aren�t you�? He says, �You bet I am. You�ve made me the happiest man alive�. She kisses his cheek and says, �I feel the same way. You've made me the happiest woman alive". ---

Tammy says, �Well, this is one of the birthing rooms and as you can see it�s a very nice, comfortable room. It�s really quite a peaceful setting�you know, kind of like you�re giving birth in your very own home�. She then takes them to the Nursery and says, �This is where your baby or babies will be kept when they�re not with you. The nurses here are excellent with the babies and will help you in any way they can. So now I�ll leave you to look at the babies, then you�re free to go. Take care and I�ll see all of you next week at the same time�. They say their goodbyes then she leaves.

Michael/Lisa walk up to them and he says, �Well you two, we�ve got to go. We�re really tired after the long day of shopping for baby things�. Philip and Chloe say their goodbyes then Michael/Lisa leave. Philip is still holding Chloe�s hand as they look at the newborns wrapped up tightly in their receiving blankets.

Chloe says, �Oh Hubby. Look! The baby girls have pink bracelets and caps on, and the baby boys have blue bracelets and caps on. Aren�t they just precious�? He�s been looking at her all of this time and says, �Baby, they�re precious, but nothing is as precious as you. You should see your eyes when the light hits them, then add that special glow you have and you�re�you�re amazing and take my breath away�.

She has tears in her eyes and he gently wipes them away. She gets in her spot and hugs him really tight then says, �You�re the one that is precious�I remember when you told me for the first time that nothing was gonna keep us apart, and that you�d stand by me no matter what and�Hubby, no matter what we�ve been through, you�ve always been by my side to love me, comfort me, keep me safe, and make me feel secure. Have I told you lately how much I love you�?

He smiles and says, �Gee, I think it�s been a while�. She laughs then he says, �Baby, I love it when you tell me you love me, and you can tell me as many times as you like. I love watching those beautiful lips of yours when you say those words to me. MMM�I love you sweetheart, and I think we need to get home so I can rub your feet and back, then hold you in my arms and we can fall asleep like that�. She gently kisses his lips then they walk out the door.

~*~*~*~*~*~

He opens the door for her then she gets in the Suburban. He gets in as well and as they�re driving home she says, �Do we have any ice cream at home�? He says, �We�ve got about every kind you can think of in the big freezer. What kind would you like to have�? She hesitates then says, �Hmmm�how about chocolate chip? Do we have that�?

He says, �Definitely..that�s one of my favorites and Marie knows to keep it in stock�. She moves over next to him and lays her head on his shoulder. She starts humming �I Need You� and he says, �I love it when you hum or sing. It lets me know just how comfortable and happy you are with me. That means more to me than you�ll ever know�. She kisses his cheek then says, �I�ll always need you Hubby�. He looks into her eyes and says, �And I�ll always need you Baby�.

He forgot about the new fence being put up and can�t find the card key to gain entry onto the Estate so he quickly gets on the phone and calls Rob. Rob says, �I�m sorry I forgot to give you the card key, but as you can see there are numbers you can punch as well. The code is 22412�. Philip says, �Thanks Rob. Sorry for bothering you. How did your wife like the flowers�? He says, �She loved them. Thanks for asking. See you tomorrow�. Philip says, �All right, bye�. So he punches the numbers in then the gate opens and closes behind them. They are now parked in the garage then Philip helps Chloe out then they go inside.

~*~*~*~*~*~

They are now in the kitchen and Philip says, �I�ll be right back. I�ve got to get that chocolate chip ice cream for my oh so beautiful Momma-to-be�. She smiles then he leaves. She walks over to the cabinet and pulls out a really large bowl. She then gets two spoons. Philip comes back with a big box of chocolate chip ice cream and says, �You�re gonna have some aren�t you�?

She laughs and says, �You thought this big bowl was just for you, didn�t you�? He says, �Well isn�t it�? She kisses him and says, �I thought we could fill this bowl to the top with ice cream then go into the living room and feed it to one another. Does that sound like a plan�? He smiles then says, �MMM�Mrs. K. I love that idea. Then I can kiss you in between bites�. He takes the ice cream scoop then fills the bowl up, then puts the rest of it back into the freezer.

~*~*~*~*~*~

They go into the living room and sit down on the couch. He holds the bowl then feeds her a bite. She eats it, then he kisses her lips. She then feeds him a big bite and after he swallows it she gives him a kiss. They continue doing this until it is all gone. He sets the bowl on the floor then smiles and says, �Well, did that satisfy you sweetheart�? She raises her eyebrow and says, �The ice cream or the kisses�? He raises his eyebrow and says, �The ice cream�. She says, �You are ornery Hubby�you meant the kisses, I know you did�.

He laughs and says, �You�re right Baby. Did the kisses satisfy you�? She says, �Hmmm..I think I�m in desperate need of more than a few small kisses�you know..something like this�. She pulls him into a passionate kiss, then breaks away. She slowly gets up and starts to leave. He says, �Hey, where are you going? You can�t just kiss a guy like that and leave him�. She raises her eyebrow and says, �Why not�? What are you gonna do about it�? He gets up then gently takes her in his arms and kisses her very passionately. She breaks away and is breathless then he starts to walk away.

She raises her eyebrow then says, �I guess I�ll just have to go to bed by myself and dream about some handsome guy making love to me since you�re not interested�. He turns around and says, �Two can play that game�I guess I�ll just have to go to bed by myself and dream of some beautiful blonde kissing me all over and�She walks over to him then grabs him. She says, �Guess again Hubby�They laugh then she pulls him into the bedroom.

~*~*~*~*~*~

He takes her in his arms then kisses her passionately. He removes her clothes as she removes his then he lowers her onto the bed. They make love then he says, �I love you Baby. Now would you like me to rub your back and feet�? She says, �I love you Hubby, and yes�I�d love to have my lower back rubbed as well as my feet�. So he rubs her back and she says, �MMM..that feels so good. I�ve noticed that my clothes are even tighter this week than they were last week�.

Philip gently pulls her hair away from her face then kisses her lips. He says, �Now I�ll rub your feet�. She says, �You know what�? He gets in her face and smiles then says, �What�? She laughs then says, �I think I�d rather you just hold me in your arms right now and we can hum our song then fall asleep like this�. So he starts humming �I Need You� with her then she falls asleep in his arms.

~*~*~*~*~*~

The new home is completely finished and the landscaping has all been done. Philip/Chloe as well as Craig/Kate, and Lucas/Will are all inside talking to Dan Robbins. Dan says, �Well, how do you like your new home? Does it meet your approval�? Chloe smiles then says, �Most definitely. I absolutely love it. Thanks so much for putting so much time into getting it completed for us before Blake/Amanda are born. We truly appreciate it. Now all we have to do is furnish it, and get the Nursery all set up�.

Dan smiles and says, �Well Philip, it looks like you guys are going to be really busy getting this place ship-shape for Chloe before she delivers. My wife kept me working day/night to get our son�s Nursery ready. Everything had to be just perfect you know�? Philip smiles and says, �Anything my wife wants, she gets�. Dan says, �Well, I�d better be going. Give me a call if you have any problems, or questions. Take care�. Philip/Chloe say their goodbyes.

Kate says, �Well, I guess we�d better hurry and get the Nursery set up first. I have this feeling Blake/Amanda are going to come early�. Craig says, �Well, I guess we�d better get those cribs put together, Son�. So Philip kisses Chloe then he/Craig go into the Nursery and start putting the cribs together. Kate says, �Well Chloe, what do you say we start going through all of these new baby clothes then I�ll go put them where they belong�. Chloe says, �Sounds good to me�. Lucas says, �What can Will/I do�? Kate says, �Why don�t you two look in the boxes in the hallway for the bumper pads, and sheets for the cribs�? So Lucas leaves with Will.

Philip/Craig have finished putting the cribs together, then place the mattresses in them. They bring the rocking chairs into the room and Philip says, �I�m not gonna put them any specific place because knowing Chloe, she�ll have me moving them several times before they�re just right�. Craig laughs and says, �I know what you mean, Son. These women of ours are something else. Gotta love em��. Philip smiles and says, �That I do, Dad�.

Chloe walks into the room and says, �Hubby, can I talk to you for a minute�? He says, �Sure. What can I do for you sweetheart�? She says, �Can we spend the night here tonight�? Philip says, �I don�t see why not. We�ve got power and all we really need is our bed, as well as the night stands and dressers moved where you want them. Then I�ll put the sheets and blankets on the bed. Did we get the comforter we ordered�?

Chloe says, �Yes, we did. In fact Leilani called a while ago and said it just arrived. She�ll be bringing it over in a few minutes�. Craig says, �Well, I think we�ll head back to the house and leave the two of you alone for a while. I know if we stay here much longer, Chloe won�t rest. Besides, it�s getting late and I have a few phone calls to make�.

They walk into the living room and Kate says, �You look like you�re a bit tired Craig. Are you wanting to go home�? He wraps his arms around her waist and says, �I�m a little tired, but I could go on working through the night. BUT�.Chloe looks tired and she/Philip need to be alone so they can rest�. So Philip says, �Well, thanks for all of your help, and we�ll talk to you later�. They say their goodbyes then leave.

~*~*~*~*~*~

Philip takes Chloe in his arms and says, �Well, what do you say we go into the bedroom and I�ll move everything where you want it and make the bed. Then we�ll just lie there and I�ll hold you for a while�. She says, �That sounds really great but we have so much work to do. I have this feeling we need to get it all done now�. Philip gets excited and says, �Oh�my�God! That only means one thing. The babies are gonna be born tonight sometime�. Chloe says, �I�m sooo excited but so scared Hubby. He wraps his arms around her and says, �I know sweetheart, but I�m gonna be right by your side every step of the way�.

He kisses her then says, �Now tell me where you want everything. So she has him move the bed several times before she�s satisfied, then has him put everything else in place. He quickly makes the bed then gently helps her sit up on it. He props some pillows behind her back then sits right beside her. He massages her shoulders, then rubs her lower back. He says, �How�s that Baby? Are you relaxed now�? She doesn�t respond then he sees she�s fallen asleep. He sits there holding her for a while, then falls to sleep himself.

Chloe wakes up in pain and says, �Hubby, I think it�s time�! Philip�s heart is beating a mile a minute and he gets up and he�s in a bit of a panic. Chloe is scared, but is getting a kick out of watching him. He�s running around trying to find the keys to the Suburban when they�re in plain sight. She says, �Hubby, if you�re looking for the keys they�re right under your nose�.

He says, �Uhh�oh�yeah you�re right�. He picks them up then gets her bag out of the closet. He leaves then gets in the Suburban. He starts the truck up then realizes he�s left Chloe inside then runs back inside to find her holding her stomach. He�s frantic and says, �Baby�I�I�m so sorry I almost left without you. My head is spinning right now�. She takes his hand and says, �Hubby, just relax. Everything�s gonna be all right�. So he�s now calm and she says, �Hubby, it�s a good thing I�m standing on tile and not the carpet, because my water just broke�. ___________________________________________
