Libby, Sarah, and I walk in with bags of clothes and things.

"Whoa! Who robbed the mall??" Nick asks.

"Oh hush you brat." Libby says walking in with two bags full of clothes.

"Yeah, be helpful and go get the other bags." I say with a smirk.

"There's more???" Nick asks shocked.

"Yes,...now go get them." I say.

As Nick walks outside I throw Libby and Sarah a look.

"You think we should have gotten them something??" Sarah asks.

Libby and I look at each other, then at Sarah.

We all three say, "Nah!"

AJ comes running in.

"Shush, I just got the twins to sleep." AJ says frantically.

"Oh sorry. How's my baby?" I ask kissing AJ on the lips; then handing him my bags of clothes.

"And how much did this cost us??" AJ asks putting the bags on the table.

"An arm and a leg." Sarah says under her breath.

"Huh?" AJ asks.

"Oh nothing." Sarah says.

Libby and I both smirk.

"So did my baby have fun taking care of his baby's?" I ask nearly laughing.

"I don't know how you can put up with her." AJ says to Libby and Sarah as Nick walks in with more bags.

"Gosh, whe..." Nick says when Libby shoots him a look, "I'll shut up."

Sarah and I can't help but laugh.

I walk down the hall to the nursery, leaving everyone else in the living room.

I walk in the nursery and look into the baby's cribs. They're sleeping there so peacefully.

AJ walks in the room, comes up behind me, and puts his arms around me.

"Beautiful aren't they?" He asks.

"Yep, the most beautiful." I agree.

"We did a good job of taking care of them while you were gone huh?" AJ asks.

"I guess, seeing that it took you the whole time we were gone just to get them to sleep." I say nearly laughing.

AJ pokes my sides, "Be nice...we worked really hard on getting them to sleep."

I giggle, "We better get out of here before we wake them up."

AJ and I sneak out of the room quietly.

"Did you get me anything?" AJ asks as we walk into the living room.

"Believe it or not...I did." I say.

"What'd you get me, what'd you get me??" AJ asks like a little kid.

"Here!" I say grabbing a bag off the table.

AJ opens it quickly taking out three things. One was a pair of Tommy Hilfiger sunglasses that were on top. Another was a pair of Tommy Hilfiger Jeans. The last is a gold chain necklace that says "#1Daddy" on it.

"Aw baby, thanx. This necklace is the best!" AJ says hugging me.

"So what did you get me Hun?" Nick asks leaning over Libby's shoulder.

"I was really going to buy you something, but I ran out of money with all the stuff I bought for me." Libby says with a smirk.

Nick pouts.

"I'm just kidding you big baby. Here." Libby says handing Nick a little bag.

Nick pulls out two N64 games.

"Hey thanx! I was wanting these." Nick says giving Libby a hug.

"Hey, hook me up man, lets play 'em." AJ says pointing to the N64 system in the living room.

AJ and Nick walk over and start playing the video games.

Libby, Sarah, and I head to my bedroom to put the clothes up.

Libby and I notice Sarah is looking a little down.

"Girl, I'm sorry. I know this will all work out." Libby says.

Sarah sits down on the edge of the bed and puts her face in her hands.

Libby and I sit next to her and give her a little group hug.

"It'll be OK Sar...I promise. Brian still loves you; he just needs some time to cool off." I say.

Sarah just keeps crying.

(a week later)

Libby, Sarah, Shena, Tiffany, and I are at the mall looking at wedding and brides maid dresses.

"Oh Suzy that one's beautiful...you have to at least try it on." Tiffany says.

"I don't think I'd even have to money for it." I say looking it up and down.

"So, you can at least try it on." Shena says.

"Well,...." I start.

"Well, nothing." Shena says.

"Go try it on!" Tiffany says.

"Fine." I say taking the dress back into the dressing room.

"What are you ladies up to??" Someone familiar asks from behind the group.

All the girls turn around.

"What are you doing here?" Libby asks looking at Howie and AJ.

"Yeah, you shouldn't be here. It'd be bad luck if you saw Suzy in her wedding dress AJ." Tiffany says.

"Oh I don't believe in that junk." AJ says.

"Think of it this way; you see her in the dress she'll kill you." Tiffany says.

"Oh...now I got ya." AJ says.

"Where is she anyway??" Howie asks.

"She's in the dressing room trying on a dress." Sarah says.

I start to come out and show the girls the dress.

"No, Suzy don't!" Libby says closing the door on me.

"What is wrong with you??" I ask through the door.

"AJ's out here." She says.

"What is he doing here?" I ask.

"I'm here to see you of course." AJ says.

"You know you're not supposed to see me in my wedding dress." I say.

"Is the dress you're wearing going to be the one you're buying?" AJ asks.

"No, it doesn't have everything I'm wanting." I say.

"Then get out here; it won't matter." AJ says.

"Oh...right...I guess you're right." I say opening the door.

"You know I am" AJ says as I slowly open the door.

I walk out and everyone stares.

"Oh my gosh you look so pretty Suzy." Sarah says.

"Yeah, that's the most beautiful dress I've ever seen...why don't you want it?" Libby asks.

"It just doesn't have everything I want. I don't see fireworks when I look at myself in it." I say.

AJ just stands there starring.

"Honey what's wrong?" I ask.

"I sure see fireworks." AJ says.

We all smile.

(later at Howie and Kevin's place)

All of us but Brian are there. We're all doing our own little thing.

"Wow, this must be like an adventure for the twins. They've never really been outside you're house." Kevin says.

"Yeah I know. But it was best for a while." AJ says.

"Yeah I know what you mean man." Kevin says.

"So, how is the relationship with Shena?" Nick asks.

"It's good. I've never been happier." Kevin says.

"That's good. Going to...well...introduce her to the public?" AJ asks.

"Seeing what you and Brian have gone through because of you announcing your relationships; I think it might still be a while. Plus I don't want a bunch of fans after Shena; you know how crazy they get." Kevin says.

"Yeah I know what you mean," AJ says, "I still remember when I told them all about Suzy beginning pregnant. Now that was scary."

"Yeah, no kidding." Kevin says.

"Hey what's up guy?" Howie asks walking over.

"Just talking about Kevin and Shena's relationship." Nick says.

"Oh, yeah, they look happy. Must be happy enough to call at three or four in the morning and talk to each other." Howie says sitting down next to Kevin.

"Hey, when she needs me she needs me." Kevin says.

"Seems like you need her a lot too. You call her in the middle of the night too." Libby says sitting down between AJ and Nick.

"Well, we're in love...what's wrong with that?" Kevin asks.

"Nothing at all. Just remind me to turn my ringer off." Libby says.

Howie laughs, "Been there, done that."

"What are we talking about?" Tiffany asks as she sits down next to Howie.

"How Shena and Kevin call each other in the middle of the night." AJ says.

"I know how that is." Tiffany says flipping through a magazine.

"You guys are so mean to Kevin." I say walking in and sitting on AJ's lap.

"Thank you Suzy." Kevin says.

"I think it's cute. It shows that he loves her and she loves him." I say.

AJ covers my mouth with his hand, "Shush, we're having fun making fun."

I elbow him in the ribs softly.

He makes like he's really hurt.

"Shut up you baby." I say sticking my tongue out at him.

"Where's Sarah and Shena?" Howie asks.

"Shena's talking to Sarah. Sarah's really upset about the whole thing with Brian." I say.

"I would be too." Tiffany says.

"Yeah, I mean, who wants to be in a fight with the person they love?" Libby says.

We all sit there in silence for a while.

Kevin breaks the ice by saying, "Has anyone seen Brian lat..."

Brian comes walking through the door.

"Whoa Bri, where you been??" Nick asks.

"Oh, here and there...where's Sarah??" Brian asks frantically.

"Um...she's out back with Shena...why?" I ask.

"I've finally collected my thoughts and realized...well....I need to talk to her first." Brian asks.

"Well, I told you where she is." I say.

Brian runs out back.

Shena and Sarah both look up and see Brian.

"Br...Brian? What are you doing here?" Sarah asks.

"I need to talk to you. Shena would you excuse us?" Brian asks.

"Sure." Shena says walking inside.

Brian runs over and holds Sarah in his arms.

She's near tears, "Brian...what's wrong?"

"I've been such a fool. I shouldn't have let that get us in a fight. You had good reason to be mad." Brian says.

"No, it was my fault. I got too over protective," Sarah says, "I should know that I can trust you."

"Well, lets just try to not fight about silly things like this again." Brian says.

"Oh, you got it." Sarah says smiling.

Brian kisses her; she returns the kiss.

(inside)

"I wonder what's going on out there." Nick says.

"He seemed pretty eager to talk to her." Says Shena, who is sitting on the floor next to Kevin's legs.

"I hope everything's OK." Kevin says.

AJ says, "I'm sure they're just fin..."

Brian and Sarah walk in; Brian has his arm around Sarah.

"Hey you two. Care to join our little party?" Tiffany asks.

"Sure." They both say.

We spend the rest of the night talking about the wedding, the tour, the fans, our plans, anything and everything we can talk about.

(A couple weeks later)

I wake up to the sound of Alex barking.

"AJ, he's going to wake up the twins." I say.

"I'm tired." AJ says.

"Argh." I say starting to get up.

"No honey I'll let him out." AJ says.

"Thank you sweetie." I say kissing him and then laying back down.

AJ walks through the dark house.

"Come on you brat." AJ says open the back door for Alex to go out.

AJ makes his way back through the dark to the room. He passes and goes into the nursery to check on the babies.

He can here Dominique fussing a bit.

"Oh honey what's wrong?" He asks as he picks her up.

He holds her for a minute while she fusses.

"You're hungry aren't you?" He asks, "Well, let's let your brother sleep and we'll go get you something to eat."

AJ walks out of the room with Dominique in his arms.

He goes into the kitchen and warms up a bottle. He sits down on the couch and starts to feed her.

(in the room)

I wake up, roll over, and realize AJ's not back in bed.

"I wonder what's taking him." I say to myself.

I get up and walk out of the room.

I walk into the living room. I can see the back of AJ's head, where he's sitting on the couch.

"AJ?" I ask.

He doesn't say anything.

"AJ?" I ask again, walking closer to him.

He still doesn't say anything.

I walk up right behind him and see Dominique asleep in his arms. Then I realize that he's asleep too.

I can't help it; I get the camera and take a quick picture. Surprisingly, neither of them wakes up.

I take the bottle from AJ's hand and put it in the kitchen.

Then I take Dominique and put her back in her crib.

I bring the baby monitor and sit it on the coffee table. Then I get a blanket, sit down next to AJ, and cover us both up. I slowly begin to fall asleep as I feel him put his arms around me.
