"Behind every great daughter is a truly amazing dad." -Anonymous

David was getting all dressed up in his suit, while Emily was helping Jennifer and Penelope by putting a little bit of makeup on them. It wasn't much, just a little bit of blush, eye shadow and a lip gloss.

Penelope was dressed in a hot pink dress with a giant bow in the front around the waist, a gem in the middle of the bow. The dress had a knee length poofy, ruffle layer skirt. Jennifer's dress was royal blue with a white overlaid lace bodice and a floor length poofy tulle skirt.

David was waiting in the living room when Emily came out of the bathroom, he looked over and saw his oldest daughter but not Jennifer or Penelope. He wondered what was going on, but then figured that the twins wants to make an entrance when he heard Emily's announcement.

"I am proud to present Princess Jennifer and Princess Penelope." Emily announced and then the twins came out of the bathroom, stepping in front of Emily.

"Wow. You look beautiful girls." David said as he thought, 'They are not dating until they are forty.'

Penelope smiled, "Thanks Papá."

"Yeah. Thanks Papá." Jennifer added

David nodded, "So...are we ready to go?"

"Yes!" The twins exclaimed excitedly

David left for the father-daughter dance with the twins, Spencer was in his room reading, so that just left Derek and Emily out in the living room. Derek seemed to be staring at his phone intently.

"Everything alright, D?" Emily asked as she sat down, unable to stand anymore.

"I..uh...I like this girl and I got her number, told her I'd text her, but I don't know what to say to her." Derek explained, "I've have crushes before, but...this girl...I really like this girl. I need some advice, Em."

Emily smiled, "Aw...Derek's in love."

"Stop it, Emily. I'm serious." Derek replied as he threw a pillow at his sister

"Okay chill. What would you like to say to her?"

Derek shrugged, "I don't know. I just don't want to screw up."

"The best thing to do is speak from the heart. Words that come from the heart are always the most meaningful. If she's a girl with any kind of self-respect, she will appreciate the sincerity and honesty."

Derek smiled, "Thanks Em."

"No problem. Now what's this girl's name?"

"Savannah. Her name is Savannah." Derek responded

Meanwhile at the father-daughter dance, David is dancing with both Jennifer and Penelope. The twins are blonde haired and blue eyed. David is Italian with brown eyes. They look absolutely nothing alike.

"Why are you raising kids that don't look like you? Why did you adopt nine year old twins? Don't they have problems?" Another father asked David, "Didn't you want a baby? Italian baby who would look like you?"

David glared at the man, "Look man, I don't know what you're problem is, but I don't appreciate you asking me these questions in front of my daughters. I don't care that they don't look like me or that they aren't babies. They are my daughters. I love them for who they are. And all kids have problems just like any adult does." He led his daughters away from that man, so they could dance somewhere else. He sighed, "I'm sorry you had to hear that, my princesses."

"It's okay, Papá. We know that you love us." Penelope replied

"Yeah." Jennifer agreed, "You love us and we love you. What that guy said doesn't matter to us. You matter to us, Papá. Plus we have heard way worse from our former foster parents and siblings."

David smiled, "Oh, I love you girls so much."

"We love you too, Papá." The twins replied

Back at home with Derek and Emily. Derek had texted the girl and was waiting for a response. He looked over at Emily to find her with her hand resting on her stomach.

"Everything alright?"

Emily forced a smile, "Yeah."

"No, you're not. What is it?"

"Just scared about becoming a mother in a few months."

Derek took Emily's free hand, "Hey. You are going to be a great mother. Those babies are lucky to have you."

"Thanks."

"So do you have any names picked?"

Emily nodded, "Yeah. I talked with Aaron. We both like Noah Aiden for the boy, but can't decide for the girl. I like Kira Lucille. He likes Keira Jane." She spelled Kira the way she likes it and then the way that Aaron likes it.

"You'll figure it out it out."

Emily snickered, "Yeah. I'm gonna win. I'm the one carrying and delivering the babies. Plus I hate the name Jane."

"Why?"

Emily sighed, "It's the girl version of my dad's name...John. Well he was born Jan, but he changed it to John when he moved to the states."

"Oh...I'm sorry. Why don't you tell Aaron that? I'm sure he'll understand."

"I don't like talking about my dad. He never had time for me as a kid. He was always too busy working."

Derek looked into Emily's eyes, "Then tell Aaron. He's going to understand."

Emily took a breath, "You're right, D. Thanks. I will."

"That's what brothers are for."

Emily laughed, "Are you sure that you're younger?"

"It's what my birth certificate says so we'll just go with that. But emotional I think we are about the same age. It's just that some people have more intelligent in other areas."
