    Things hadn't always been so easy for you and Jack.

    Not too long ago, the thought of having a baby would've sent you into a panic, financial strain enough to keep you up the whole night through.

    But now... now Jack was under contract with a major motion picture studio, fresh off the hit that was his last movie. There had never been a better time for you two to go for it.

    And go for it you did, well enough to land you at the doctor's for your prenatal visits. Jack always insisted on coming along, no matter what he was supposed to have going on that day. He'd had enough troubles in the past, his family was everything to him now, over all else.

    So there he sat with his hands politely holding his hat in his lap, eyes darting between you and the doctor as he examined your ever-growing bump. Holding a stethoscope to the round of your stomach, the doctor carefully listened before letting out a well-volumed exclamation.

    Jack leapt to his feet, holding the brim of his hat tighter as he stared at you. "What is it? What's wrong?"

    You looked between Jack and the doctor, the same questions on your own mind. But then the doctor smiled, wrapping his stethoscope back up. "Two heartbeats. Twins!"

    Jack was down before you could even fully turn your head, landing on the floor with a thud, brought to fainting by the news.
