I thought that since i put a picture last chapter of what i can assume is Lydia i'm going to put one that represents Amber.
Luke's POV
"You three really need to start hanging out without me." I said through my teeth as i threw myself back on my bed. It's now way too late for them to be there but as soon as i called them saying that my parents bought Kian a crib, they came running. They burst into my house rather rudely.
"Who said this was for you?" Ashton said with a sassy undertone as he unfolded a piece of paper with instructions on it.
"It's not. It's for Kian and.." i thought of it for a second. They all realized quick.
"You don't know the other baby's name do you?" Calum was the only one to say anything but the rest were judging me. Michael with a screwdriver in his hand shook his head. I quickly sat up thinking about whether or not she said anything about a name.
"She didn't name her yet." I didn't give off much confidence but the boys continued with work.
"Whatever. In February, you're going to be a dad and we're the only ones on your side so you better get comfortable with it." Ashton turned his back to me starting to give instructions to Michael and Calum on the floor.
Amber's POV
"You have to be fucking with me." My dad stood in front of me with the sonogram laid across the table.
"I thought you would want proof. It's a girl too. You are going to have a granddaughter." His face tensed up before he picked the pictures up examining it. He looked from me to to the picture then down to my belly.
"I can't believe i never noticed."
"Well you're drunk most of the time." My father slammed the ultrasound down on the table in anger. If it wasn't for this being a normal tone of our usual conversations, i would have flinched. But my father raised me with this temper. I'm used to it. "Wow dad. Real mature way of handling the news."
"How are you paying for this baby? I'm not doing anything for you."
"No one would expect that from someone like you." My father stood up. His face said everything. He's going to explode.
"Check your tone. Remember this wouldn't be happening if you weren't whoring yourself out everywhere we go."
"Thanks for that." He huffed under his breath storming off. The door slamming shook the whole house. I looked down at my stomach running my hand over my bump. "I love you..." I thought for a moment. What will be my daughters name? I only had one in my mind that stuck out. "Skyler."

Lydia's POV
"You're really trying to look good just to go to school." My mom said leaning against the frame of my door. I got a burst of energy this morning thinking about spending time with Luke before school. So much that i actually started looking through the bags of maternity clothes that my mother bought behind my back. Turns out they aren't that bad. One of them was a perfect little blue dress that was loose over my stomach enough to be super comfortable and some tights for warmth.
"Stop mom. You know exactly why i'm making this effort." I smoothed out my dress looking out the window right when Luke's car pulled into my driveway. "He's here." I grabbed my bag off the bed throwing it over my shoulder as fast as i could.
"Don't rush. You might overexert yourself." My mom said as a form of warning holding her hands out for me.
"Mom. I'm fine. I need to get to school. Kian's father is waiting."
"Keep him Kian's father for a bit. Don't rush things." I rolled my eyes pushing through her. It was getting very clear that i have extra inches around the waist now. He's really showing up. "I love you." She yelled after me a little too late for me to actually answer her back. Luke was standing with his hands behind his back smiling at me.
"Hey baby momma." He said as i got closer. I involuntarily scrunched my nose at the name making him retreat a bit. "Not the right words. Sorry."
"Yeah. Don't call me that." Luke nodded straightening up a bit.
"I read that you are not allowed a certain amount of coffee so i got you a hot chocolate." He opened the door ahead of me getting to it motioning me to get in. "My lady."
"Thank you sir." The seat had a bag on it with a label on the front. "Breugger's? You really know me."
"It's only been three years of us being friends and dating." He closed the door once i was inside rushing around the car to get to his side. "I made sure it was the right sandwich too. Made to your direct instruction." I reached into the bad grabbing my sandwich out with as much pregnant excitement as i could. Kian moving about inside obviously feeling how eager i am.
"You are the best baby daddy." Luke raised an eyebrow at me as i took a bite out of my bagel sandwich. "What?"
"You're calling me your baby daddy but your not my baby momma?"
"You want me to explain. Seriously?" Luke shook his head grinning. "Thank you for this."
"Of course." Luke started the car with a rumble. Before i was pregnant, Luke would take the doors off his jeep as an attempt to be cool. Now, he has them tightly on. "They are never coming off again." He said almost reading my mind. "Protect tiny hands." We didn't talk much on the way to school. I was mostly busy with the sandwich and when i was done i was just nervous. Then we pulled into the parking lot. I got a burst of courage fighting against what my mom said. Luke parked and turned to me for just a second. His smile is the best thing in this world right now. I leaned over the console barely brushing my stomach on it as i kissed Luke. He kissed me back immediately before pulling away.
"I'm sorry if that was much." I said quietly but i got a laugh from him.
"Never apologize for kissing me. I've been wanting that for a while." I backed up again taking a sip of my drink.
"We need to be serious. We can't just jump back to being like before. It's different now. There's more people to think about."
"Yeah. We'll go slow." Luke was nodding but still smiling.
"Luke?" He turned back to me still shaking with excitement. "Calm down little boy." I opened the door climbing out of his car. Luke rushed out too coming to join me as i got to the front.
"I'm allowed to be excited." Kian seemed to agree. He was letting me know he could hear how fast my heart was going.
"Kian knows when i'm with you." Luke's hand went straight to my stomach feeling for his son.
"Is he moving?" Michael ran over to us giving off golden retriever energy as Luke stepped out of the way for him. Michael held his hands out waiting for permission.
"Go ahead." Michael touched my stomach before letting out a giddly laugh.
"Hey Kian. It's Uncle Michael. You have a lot of us but trust me, i'm your favorite." Kian kicked making Michael retreat. "Nope. Nope. That's freaky."
"It's beautiful." Luke defended looking from my face to my stomach and back. This guy loves me. I could just see it.

"You know. It's probably not a good idea for you to take chemistry." Ashton looked extremely worried watching me pour the ocean water into a beaker.
"Yeah. The pacific ocean can really affect a baby's development." I was being sarcastic obviously but it didn't seem to help Ash feel better. "If there was anything dangerous they would have told me. The public school system is messed up but not enough to put a baby in danger."
"What do you think they do with Amber's blood when they test for Luke's paternity?" I had to take a deep breath. In secret, I've been venting to Ashton. He is one of my best friends as well as Luke's.
"It's not Amber's blood. It's the baby's. They probably do a lot with it though."
"I hope it's negative. For you two."
"Thank you but it's fine if it's positive." Ashton looked really confused.
"Really?" I thought about it for a second before looking him in the eye.
"No but we are going to act like it is." Ashton nodded reaching out to take the beaker from me.
"Still don't trust it." He straightened up starting the pouring again. I leaned my head in resting my head on his shoulder. I took another breath looking into space. What will my life be like after these two are born? What is Luke going to do with having two kids and being in the same state as only one? Will Amber move to North Carolina with us? These thoughts have been running through my head since I found out about the two babies. How will we live our lives juggling this life?
