Adie! Can't You See How Much I Love You?, chapter 4

"The reason is because... you are having twins Mrs. Armstrong."
"What? That can't be possible! We would have known if we were having twins."
"Well no, you see in your case the second baby was hidden by the first baby and the heart beats were going at the same time so it would be very hard for a doctor to notice more than one baby. We have to do a c-section on you to get the babies out."

I didn't respond, I couldn't. It was shocking, I mean I knew that I would love two babies as much as one, but this was the wrong time for one baby let alone two. Was going back into the studio and once the album was finished they would be going on tour and I would be left alone with two rambunctious boys and two babies. Then again I had handled a new born on my own before, when Joey was born Billie was there but he had to leave again a few months later and when Jakob was born Billie had to finish up that tour so I was left with a new born and a three year old for a few weeks, but this was a whole new level. I was brought to a different room and they started to prep me for the c-section.



Billie's POV

I went to go tell everyone in the waiting room what was happening. They all saw me and stood up thinking the bay was born. I sighed.
"Adie's going in for a c-section right now."
Everyone looked worried and the word 'why' echoed through the group.
"Because we're having twins!"
I smiled and everyone became happy again. I had to change into hospital things so I could be with Adie.
"Mr. Armstrong you can come in now."
I walked into the room and sat on a stool by Adie's side; she grabbed my hand and looked at me with worried eyes.
"Babe everything's gonna be Ok."
I kissed her and gave her hand a reassuring squeeze.
"Look on the bright side; we might not have to wait as long to have sex again."
Adie smiled, I knew she wanted to laugh but the doctors had told her not to really move or anything.
"Ok Mrs. Armstrong we are starting the c-section right now, you may feel some pain but only minor pain, and you will feel pressure from the babies, but it's all normal."

We waited for a few minutes when we heard crying.
"Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Armstrong you have a beautiful healthy baby boy."
Nurses wrapped up our new son and handed him to Adie, she was laying down so it was kinda hard for her to hold him so I took him. I held him up so she could see her son. Then we heard another cry.
"Congratulations you also have a beautiful healthy baby girl."
Adie cried when she heard that, it's wasn't that we weren't happy to have our son too but we had two other sons and Adie and I had always wanted a girl, but we still loved our sons all the same. A nurse gave me our daughter and I held her so Adie could see her.


They were taking care of while I brought the two newest Armstrong's into the waiting room to meet they're new family. When I walked through the doors they all stopped talking, seeing that I had two babies in my arms. I don't think they really understood that we were having twins till that moment. My mom walked up.
"Billie they are beautiful. Can I hold one?"
I nodded.
"Here you can take this little guy."
The baby boy stared up at his grandmother. Adie's mom walked up and I handed my daughter over to her.
"Are they both boys?"
I looked at Mike.
"No, my mom has the boy and Adie's mom has the girl."

As soon as that sentence left my lips they all cheered and hugged me and each other. Joey and Jakob walked over and I took the babies from my mom and Adie's mom.
"Joey, Jake this is your little brother and little sister."
They both watched the babies.
"What are they're names?"
I thought about it and realized that we never thought about names.
"We didn't pick any names."


Adie's POV

Billie walked into the room with everyone following behind him.
"Babe we've got a problem. A BIG problem."
"What do you mean?"
Billie held up the twins.
"We never picked names for them."
I mentally kicked myself; we had been too busy with other things in our lives that we forgot to pick names for our own kids.
"Shit we gotta pick something."
We all began to think.
"How about Jensen Samuel and Jacqueline Lana?"
Billie nodded.
"I like those names."
I smiled.


March 2004

Life was going great for us the twins were good, Joey and Jakob loved helping out with them and they loved to help take care of them. Billie was at the studio a lot but he tried to come home as early as he could and he tried to call as many times as possible to ask me if everything was Ok and if I needed him to come home and help. Billie and I hadn't been fighting like before and Billie didn't come home drunk, I took those as good signs and wished that things would stay that way.

Unfortunately not every member of Green Day was having a good time with life, Mike and Sarah's relationship wasn't doing very good and Tre wasn't very lucky in getting a new girlfriend. It seemed that Billie and I wear the only lucky ones; I wished that they could have the same happiness that Billie and I had. I sat at home thinking about these things, the boys' were at school, the twins were sleeping and Billie was at the studio. From what I had heard the new album was going great, the guys' had a few songs and they were making the album a rock opera type thing. I had to admit it sounded cool. I couldn't help but let my mind wander, till I heard the familiar crying of a baby.

I sighed and went up stairs to find Jacqueline crying, I picked her up and got her to fall back asleep. I smiled at my two sleeping children. Jacqueline and Jensen both had Billie's green eyes and they had my dark brown hair, I was glad that they had Billie's eyes. I looked at clock and realized that I'd have to pick up Joey and Jakob soon; I sighed and started packing the twins into the car. Yes life was defiantly going to be more hectic and hard but I felt I could deal with it.
