�That does suck,� Nickolas agreed. �Jo�s facial expression the whole night is priceless.�
�I�ll be surprised if this marriage lasts.�
�So will I.� They stopped at the truck and Nickolas put Sunshine on the hood. �I can�t wait until our wedding.� He turned and faced her.
�Neither can I.� They kissed.
�Why don�t we get married tonight?�
�Nicky.�
�Just a suggestion.�
�Why are you in such a hurry?�
�Because I can�t wait to make you Mrs. Nickolas Gene Carter and I can�t wait to become Mr. Sunshine Josephine Robinson.� She laughed and he kissed her. �I want us to be together forever.�
�So do I, but ya have to wait like everyone else.�
�Why? I�m a superstar.�
�Doesn�t matter. The less fortunate should get before us.�
�Is this a speech?�
�No.�
�Good.� He kissed her a fourth time. �That�s one of the reasons why I love you so much. You�re always thinking of the little people and their needs.� She smiled and he kissed her a fifth time, as Alexander and Destiny approached.
�If you�re going to do that,� Destiny started, �it�s better to get inside the vehicle.� Sunshine and Nickolas looked. �I know from experience.�
�Go away you guys,� Sunshine said. �We�re having a moment.�
�You�ve been having those moments all night,� Alexander stated. �Enough already.�
�We�re going to see Paradise and Alexander,� Destiny said. �Do you want to come?�
�Yeah!� Sunshine said jumping at the chance and Nickolas looked at her. �Can we go please? I promise to behave the rest of the night and do what I�m told.� She smiled and Destiny and Alexander laughed at her.
�I guess,� Nickolas said.
�Alright!� Sunshine cheered and getting down. �We�ll see ya guys there.�
�We�ll see ya there,� Alexander said smiling and shaking his head at Sunshine and he and Destiny walked away.
�Let�s go, Nickolas,� Sunshine said. �Open the door.�
�Yes, milady,� Nickolas said opening the truck door and kissing her before she got in. He closed the door, walked to the driver�s side, got in, and followed Alexander and Destiny to the hospital.

�They�re getting so big,� Sunshine said looking at the twin babies. �When can you take them home?�
�In a couple weeks,� Destiny replied.
�I bet you�re counting the days,� Nickolas said.
�Alex is,� Destiny said.
�What? I can�t wait,� Alexander stated. �I actually had kids.�
�Because you couldn�t keep your pants zipped,� Sunshine pointed out.
�Like you two can,� Alexander rebutted. �Whatever.�
�We don�t have kids, because we believe in protection,� Nickolas stated.
�Double protection,� Sunshine added. �Don�t do it without it.�
�She makes me put it on even though she�s on the pill,� Nickolas said disgusted.
�Good,� Destiny said.
�Don�t take her side,� Nickolas said.
�Why not?� Destiny asked. �She�s my best friend.� Sunshine laughed.
�Do you want to hold one� Alexander asked.
�Can I?� Sunshine asked in return.
�Yeah,� Destiny said. �Alex, go get the nurse.�
�Yes, Babe,� Alexander said walking away.
�Do you want to have one yet?� Destiny asked Sunshine.
�No,� Sunshine said getting disgusted. �Why does everyone ask me that? Danielle asked me earlier. My answer hasn�t changed from the last time.�
�Sorry, just wondering,� Destiny said, as Alexander walked back over with a nurse.
�What is she doing here?� Sunshine questioned.
�So you do remember Cookie,� Alexander said.
�I try to forget,� Sunshine replied.
�I work here,� Cookie stated.
�As what?� Sunshine questioned.
�Sweets,� Nickolas said kissing her cheek.
�Sunn would like to hold one of the babies,� Destiny said.
�Ok,� Cookie said. �Which one would you like to hold?�
�Alexander�s awake,� Sunshine said. �So I�ll hold him, because girls need their beauty rest.�
�You�re terrible,� Nickolas said and Sunshine smiled at him, as Cookie got Alexander out of the incubator and gave him to Sunshine. Sunshine sat in a chair and Nickolas knelt next to her. �Are you sure you don�t want any?�
�Not right now, Baby,� Sunshine said. �We ain�t even married yet.�
�Just wondering,� Nickolas said smiling.
�Kids are wonderful to have,� Cookie stated. �I�m going on my fourth and my three boys are wonderful. Perfect little angels.�
�You have three boys,� Destiny replied. �Poor you.�
�They�re triplets,� Cookie added.
�How old are they?� Alexander asked.
�Five,� Cookie replied.
�Paradise is awake,� Destiny said. �Could you get her out so I can hold her?�
�Sure,� Cookie said and she got Paradise out. �I�m hoping this one�s a little girl.� She handed Paradise to Destiny. �After the triplets I wanted a little girl, but my husband and I got divorced about five months after I gave birth.�
�Hopefully you remarried,� Sunshine said.
�Just got engaged last week,� Cookie said smiling. �But when you�re ready to put the twins back let me know.�
�Alright,� Destiny said sitting beside Sunshine, as Cookie walked away.
�Don�t you want to have kids, Sunn?� Alexander asked.
�Not at the moment,� Sunshine said. �In a few years. I wish people would stop asking me.�
�Sorry, Baby Girl,� Alexander said and Sunshine only smirked. �But when are you going to try for one?�
�In a couple years,� Nickolas replied smiling at Sunshine.
�Sounds good,� Destiny said. �I should�ve gone on the pill.�
�But you got two beautiful babies,� Sunshine stated. �Something good came out of it.�
�Yeah,� Destiny agreed. �Two beautiful babies.�
�Whoa!� Sunshine basically yelled.
�What�s your problem?� Nickolas questioned.
�He�s trying to suck my boob,� Sunshine said. �I think he�s hungry.�
�None of that little man,� Nickolas said taking Alexander�s tiny hand. �Only I can do that to Sunnie.�
�Pig shut up,� Sunshine said. �They don�t need to know our foreplay.�
�No we don�t,� Destiny agreed.
�Here take him,� Sunshine said to Destiny. �I don�t have any milk for him.� Destiny handed Paradise to Alexander and took little Alexander from Sunshine. �He can suck on your boobs.�
�That�s my job,� Alexander snickered.
�Men,� Sunshine and Destiny said in unison and they chuckled.
�What time is it?� Nickolas asked.
�In a hurry?� Alexander asked in return.
�Depends on what time it is,� Sunshine replied.
�After midnight,� Alexander said while looking at his watch.
�We have to go,� Nickolas said. �We have a plane to catch at two and I want to change.�
�Same here,� Sunshine said.
�Why so soon?� Destiny asked disappointed.
�We told James we�d be back by dawn,� Nickolas replied. �He really wants to get this movie done.�
�We�ll see ya,� Destiny said and she and Sunshine hugged.
�Hopefully by mid-April,� Sunshine stated. �But we�ll be back for V and Kev�s wedding.� She got up and so did Nickolas.
�Whatever,� Alexander said. �Later.�
�Later,� Sunshine said.
�Call me, Sunshine,� Destiny ordered.
�I will so don�t worry,� Sunshine said.
�Bye,� Nickolas said putting his arm around Sunshine and they walked out of the nursery.
