Falling For My Exchange Brother | B... - Chapter 63: Chapter 63

"Ah...hello?"
I watch as a woman glances up at me, her eyes softening on me. I feel my cheeks become pink in embarrassment because there was only one more man in here.
"Hello, are you here for an exam with a partner? Or are you having the exam?" She asks me gently, and I bite my lip.
"I'm...here for the ultrasound." I state nervously, but no judgements in her eyes.
"Aww, do you have your papers?"
"No...this is my first time doing this." I confess quietly. "I didn't know I needed papers, I'm sorry."
She smiles at me, completely being understanding as she rummaged through a drawer. Even saw her grab a pen, handing me the papers.
"You can fill those out and once you do - bring them back to me. I'll set up an ultrasound for you in twenty - is that good?" She asks me, and before I can respond I see hands slam on the counter.
I saw the twins in front of me now, shaking with excitement. I soon saw Arthur go past me and I instantly became shy. My arms wrap around him as I try to pull him away from the counter.
"I want to see our baby A-S-A-P!" He exclaims, and I saw the woman looking up in shock to his excitement.
"We want to see our sibling! We're gonna be big sisters!" Isabella exclaims even more loudly, Ava nodding ecstatically.
"We are more excited than anyone in this place! We want to see our sibling quickly! No hesitation!" Ava cries even louder.
"Guys you're being too loud." I whimper, and Arthur backs up as he looks at me in surprise. "We're in a public setting."
"S...so?!" He laughs as he claps his hands quickly. "We get to see baby today - why I not be so happy? You not want me happy?"
I sigh, looking at the twins as they still were bombarding the lady with questions. We were drawing lots of attention, but they all seemed to be very happy for me. None of them looked annoyed or irritated by the commotion.
"I want you to be happy. Just...in moderation." I pat his chest only for him to shake his head.
"No moderation. We need happy! I die if I not release all excitement! I just...burst." He rests his hand above his chest, resting his hand on where mine was. "I not burst before baby born. I not die."
"Okay...you not die." I tease him, seeing him smile happily.
I was happy to see him in such a good mood. Because all of yesterday...he was furious. It was near to impossible to calm him down. He lashed out at many - except the twins, Dylan, and me.
When we woke up for this morning he was in high spirits. He was back to his sweet self and even made everyone breakfast. Had me contemplating if he even remembered anything from yesterday.
Though it was evident he did when he asked me where I put the clothes that were drenched. Maybe he's just trying to go about things positively since it's the first ultrasound. Or...he's just really excited and that overshadows everything else.
"Why do you have to do papers just to get an ultrasound?" Ava whines to me since we were sitting at a table. There were a lot of them actually and Arthur was helping me with some of them.
"A lot of them are asking me about my medical history and physical...which I'm very healthy so." I say confidently only to hear Isabella snort. "Anyway, there's also pregnancy information and if I have any specific concerns or questions - which I don't."
"I-I do!" Arthur cries, and I look at him as he looks shy. "I wanna know how many pictures I allow to take. I want thousands."
I face back forward, going back to filling this out. Since he said that now the twins were going insane about pictures.
"I don't think there's a limit; but I don't think thousands is possible. Besides - I'm only ten weeks along, if even that. What will there even be to see?" I say to them, but that didn't dissuade them from wanting 'thousands' of pictures.
I was...very nervous. Even when they were all full of excitement - I was still nervous. I just felt like once I saw the ultrasound it'd make things more real.
I know there's someone living inside of me since they make emotions swing and make me throw up food they don't like. But I still have never seen them...now I will.
"Hey, William?" I hear Arthur murmur to me, and I look at him. I feel his arm wrap around my waist as he pulls me closer towards him.
His lips resting on my ear, I felt my face heat up as he kisses my earlobe. Eventually stopping when he saw I wasn't able to write anything with him teasing me like that.
"Not worry William, the best to come...for all of us." He murmurs in a very thick French accent in my ear. That made me yank away quickly before I made a noise in here that'd embarrass me for sure.
The twins even looked at us as if we lost our minds. More like we've embarrassed them when no one was even watching - at least that's what I thought.
"Before that...disturbing sight," Isabella starts, causing me to snort, "When do you think you'll start getting a bump?"
I flinch, forgetting that that was a part of the process. Had to stop myself from resting my hand on my belly to feel.
"Not sure. I have no idea when there'll start to be more of a...bump. I don't even know how large the stomach can become for males. I've seen females and it honestly depends, but we'll just have to see - huh?" I end everything with a question, and they both nod.
Eventually we ended up finishing the papers - and at the best timing too. Because right when we turned them in the doctor issued to me began to walk towards us.
She looked very nice and we came to learn her name was Lili. I was happy she's never met me in school, but she knew of my last name. At least she wasn't weird about it.
When we go to the ultrasound room it was very spacious and reminded me of a theatre room. There was a large screen and I could see a reclinable chair in the center of the room.
"You can lay in the chair, and if you can could you lift your shirt up to your chest? I'm going to put this ultrasound gel on you're abdomen." She states to me, and I nod.
I was still shy as I lay onto the chair. Glanced at the twins as I saw them stare at me oddly.
"W-what? I have to do this." I stammer awkwardly, and they giggle.
"Can we put on the gel?" Isabella asks Doctor Lili, and she nods happily. That made me even more shy when the gel went on their hands; but then they started to rub it on my stomach.
"What do gel do?" I hear Arthur ask her when she grabs this probe, setting it on my stomach now.
"Oh, the gel helps allow sound waves to pass through this here ultrasound probe." She explains to him as she shows off the thing. "Basically the sound waves give a reflection that produces an ultrasound image for us all to see. It's so fascinating...truly."
I actually found that fascinating too. I was impressed by such facts. Even when she was using the probe and searching for anything - I could see things.
Made me wonder how much she's paid for this job...
"So, have any names come up for you two?" Doctor Lili asks us both, and I flinch.
No names have crossed my mind at all...
"I haven't though of any..." I croak shyly, and she smiles. When I look at Arthur he looked very shy suddenly, but he did end up grinning.
"Jules...Finley o-or Xerxes - for boy. F-for girl...Mabel - ooh! - Kaia...Naomi." He starts naming off, and I was very surprised.
The twins looked very ecstatic for those names and they actually...weren't bad. I looked at him in admiration because he clearly was way more ahead than me.
"Those are beautiful names for such beautiful babies. Ooh, I'm going to let you hear their heartbeats." Doctor Lili says, and I flinch.
"'Their'? What do you mean by 'their'?" I cry, lifting my head up in an uncomfortable way. That's when I see two little babies inside of me.
I felt a chill run down my spine when I hear Arthur exclaim loudly. The twins were gasping loudly at the sight of there being twins.
"We'll have twin siblings?! They'll be twins like us?!" Ava shouts in question, and the Doctor nodded very happily for us. I was still kind of in shock because that means Arthur will have four kids.
When I look at him I saw he was crying into his hands. His hands over his face, but his body trembled - giving away him crying. I rest my hand on his arm, smiling.
"Arthur why are you crying?" I ask him softly, and he looks at me.
"Why I not cry? I see our babies...I so happy - oh! - do heartbeats!" He cries, begging her.
I face back forward and saw her smiling happily for us. When she starts to press certain buttons a sound begin to echo throughout the room.
It was a loud and...enchanting sound to hear. I saw Ava and Isabella completely mesmerized by the sound. I was just as mesmerized...I didn't want to forget it.
My eyes settle on the screen again, looking at my babies. They looked so much more bigger than I thought, but when I look down at my belly - it was flat. Made me wonder what I was missing...
"How far along am I?" I ask her, and she narrows her eyes at three screen for a little.
"I'm going to go with the lucky guess that you are eleven...ten weeks along - which is what you guessed. So your babies are the size of little limes." She gushes to us, and I thought about how small they were.
My hand can engulf a whole lime...
"How big can the babies get?"
"As big as a jackfruit - or a watermelon; so pretty large." She tells me, that causing me to wonder what that'd look like for me. Would the baby show dramatically?
I sometimes forget that I have a job...
"Arthur have you been keeping tabs on our job?" I question him, looking over my shoulder at him.
I see him look on his phone - suddenly gasping as if there was some great revelation.
"What?"
"I forget! Remember we have event in the two of the days with parents. Their anniversary party." He states to me, and I found myself groaning.
I felt nauseous out of nowhere now.
"That means you get to meet my extensive family." I tell him, and he frowns. "My mom has five siblings - my dad has eight. My mom's father remarried twice and my dad's mother happened to remarry three times. Do you know how...annoying it is to have all of them together? There's cousins I have that are just like how I used to be - if not worse."
I sigh in annoyance because I haven't seen them ever since Arthur came into my life. Around the time he did - before that at least - our family was all at the house to celebrate my birthday. We had a large party and most of the school was there, but so were my family...
They prompted me to want siblings, so that's where it all started. Made me realize how unlucky I was - and so my parents thought it'd be a smart thing to go get one.
...good thing they did. That's how I met my true love.
"That sound like fun - they never meet me and I never meet them. This not for best?" He asks me as Doctor Lili got some pictures for us and recorded our babies heartbeats.
"No...they can be a lot to handle. I'd be lying if I said I'm looking forward to this. They remember me as the old William - not the current William...me. They...may or may not be excited to see you." I sit up as I wipe my stomach clean of this gel.
I pull down my shirt as I look at him fully now, Arthur looking a little nervous. I already knew he'd have nothing to really worry about...kind of.
They can be...a lot to handle. If you thought I was bad - wait until you meet them. One of my dad's siblings is around my age, then there's one who's younger by three years. There's also more boys than there are girls.
The whole family coming together...is going to be like a circus meeting again. Out of all of them - my family, or my dad and mom are the most successful. My dad inherited his fathers business, but all his other siblings still have lump sums of cash.
"I need to better...English for them?" He asks me shyly, and I smile.
"You don't have to. They aren't the elite or anything." I tease him, even though that was a lie. They were socialites, so I don't know...what they'll do.
I don't want to stress him out because he already looks stressed out. Not to mention our...babies.
"So, William I am going to give you recommendations for prenatal vitamins. These are essential to the babies growth, so I recommend you get these as soon as possible. Here are you pictures, and I can't wait to see you guys I'm another four weeks." She smiles at us both, and I watch the twins take the multiple pictures she made for us.
With that we ended up leaving. I really liked her - Doctor Lili was nicer than almost all the people I've met in the last couple of days.
"I like her." I tell Arthur as we begin to leave.
He ends up pouting as if I've hurt his feelings. I wrap my arm around his waist, hugging his body.
"Don't worry Arthur. I love you."
"I know. I kid, I kid." He giggles, smiling at me. "I actually have nerve for family. They never meet me. What if...not like me?"
"Dad they will love you like crazy! They'll be insane if they don't!" Ava exclaims as we made it outside.
"That so sweet, but...I worry. I not want to lose temper or show any side of me." He mumbles, that quickly reminding me yesterday.
I don't...think he'd have a reason to get like that. I don't believe my family members will say or do anything against me. We're all pretty...the same - or we were.
I know if I act the way I am now - they'll associate my change to Arthur. Which I don't mind at all. They'll get to meet the twins - who I basically consider to be my own.
Can already tell Arthur will try to impress them. Not sure how because just his very presence and him as a person is enough. We'll have to see...and hopefully I don't get nauseous.
As long as no one that annoys me is there - we'll be fine.
...I mean, I will be fine.
I don't know about Arthur though...
