The next day
Becca woke up and saw Michael changing. She closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep. Michael turned to her and smiled. He knew this trick all too well. He walked up to Becca and kissed her. If he's thinking this right, she'd kiss back. She did. Michael chuckled and released the kiss. "Ok, quit faking it, hon." He said and she smiled and opened her eyes. "You know me too well, Michael." She said, sitting up. He rolled his eyes and put his shirt on. "I'm gonna call my parents and tell them about the twins sometime today. Plus...Prince, Paris and Blanket would be surprised to know that they are getting little siblings instead of just one sibling." Becca nodded. "That's a great idea, Michael. They'd be happy to know that. Wait...I thought you called them yesterday to tell them?" "I never got a chance to, because...well...I'm nervous on telling them." "Michael..." Michael sat down on the bed next to Becca and she held his hand. "There's no reason to be nervous about telling them. I'm the one that should be nervous on telling my parents about the twins. I may be the baby of my family, but I'm the first of my family to get married. And to someone like you, Michael. Listen, I'll tell my parents if you tell yours." Michael turned to her and nodded. "Alright. I'll tell them." She smiled and patted his head. "Good boy." He chuckled and got out his phone and called his mother. He told her about the twins and she told Prince, Paris, and Blanket. He heard excitement coming from them and chuckled. Soon, they hung up. "Alright, your turn." Becca nodded and grabbed her laptop and got on Skype. She saw that her mother was on and called her. Soon, she picked up. "Hello?" She asked. "Hey mother. Guess what?" "What?" "You and father are gonna be grandparents." "Really?! You're pregnant? Who's is it?" Becca rolled her eyes and moved the laptop to where she can see Michael. "His. And they are twins." "But you two are engaged, what happened??" "Well, mother..." She was scared, but told her what happened. Her mother was in shock, but was excited to be a grandmother. Her father soon came into the conversation. "What's going on here?" He asked. Her mother told him everything. He was shocked. "No way...there is no way my little girl is pregnant." "It's true, papa. Look." Becca stood up and turned to the side to reveal her 8-9 week stomach. "Whoa! How far are you?" He asked. "Almost 9 weeks. Next week, I find out the genders of the twins. Oh, and the wedding is September 16." "Alright. Well, we gotta go. We have things to do today. Congrats on the twins. We'll be expecting the invite." "Alright. Bye mama and papa." "Bye." Then the call ended. "There, happy? I told them." "Very happy, Becca." She got up and got dressed and they headed off to the studio.
At the studio
They ran through Earth Song a few times. Becca was crying throughout the song because she knew it was one that touched her heart the most. Mainly because it was true about what was happening to the earth. Even when she was sitting out, she still was a part of the rehearsals. She handled the piano since the pianist couldn't make it today. She played the part perfectly. Kenny came up to her and they agreed that since she was unable to rehearse, she'd play the piano parts of songs. After the fourth time of rehearsing the song, they went to take a break. Becca wasn't feeling well and Michael noticed her face go pale a bit. "Becca, sweetie, you alright?" He asked. She shook her head. He carefully stood her up and helped her to the dual gender bathroom. He got her to the toilet and she threw up. "Ugh...I feel horrible..." She said. Michael rubbed her back while she continued. "Maybe we should get you home. We'll cancel the rest of rehearsal for today." "N-No...we have to c-continue rehearsals, Michael...I can't afford an o-off day." "Neither can I, but we have to for you, Becca. You're sick and being pregnant isn't helping it. Come on. Let's tell everyone that rehearsals are done for today." By the time Michael got up, she was done throwing up and she stood up and they went back into the theater. "Everyone, rehearsals are done for today. I have to get Becca home and take care of her. She's feeling really sick." Some of them complained, but understood and they soon left. Michael took her to the car and got her inside and soon drove back to the house.
Back at the house
Michael got her inside and laid her on the couch. He got a trash can and put it next to her, just in case. "I'll be right back. I'm gonna get you some medicine." He said. She nodded and he left to get the medicine. Becca was feeling her forehead and she felt warm. Soon, Michael came back with the medicine and a thermometer. He put the medicine down. "First, let's take your temperature, hon." She nodded and he put the thermometer under her tongue. When it went off, he took it out and read what it was. He was in shock. "103...oh God. You have to stay in bed, Becca." She moaned. She didn't like being bedridden. Michael took the medicine and gave it to her. "Here, this should help your fever and sickness, hon." She took it and sighed. "Let's get you to the bedroom, Becca." She nodded slowly and Michael helped her up and got her into the bedroom. He got her in the bed and under the covers and covered her up. He went back into the living room and grabbed the trash can and put it beside the bed for her. He kissed her forehead. "I'm gonna go make you some soup, ok?" She nodded and he went into the kitchen to make some soup for her. Once it was done, he came back with the soup and had her sit up. She did so and he handed her the soup. "Thank you, Michael...this is really sweet of you." She said, and she started eating the soup. "It was no trouble at all, Becca. I'm doing this for you anyway. It hurts me to see you sick." "Awe...thanks, Michael." She continued eating until she finished it. Guaranteed, she had to eat slowly or she'd throw it back up. She handed Michael the empty bowl and he went to wash it. He brought back some crackers for her and placed the open pack beside her on the nightstand. "There you go, hon. If you ever need something in your stomach, there are some crackers for you." Becca laid back down. "Thank you, Michael. I love you." "I love you, too, Becca." He gave her a soft kiss and soon, she fell asleep. Michael went to the couch in the bedroom and sat down and soon fell asleep himself.
