I'm lying on the couch next to the most amazing person in the world-my wife of 3 years Claire- talking about what we're going to call our children. At 8 months pregnant with twins, Claire is very round, permanently exhausted and if you get on the wrong side of her during one of her mood swings, let's just say it's not pretty. She is going to have a boy and a girl and I can't wait until I meet them. I still can't believe that my Claire is going to have my twins. I still remember when she broke the news.

*FLASHBACK*

I was sitting on the couch playing Assassins' Creed on my PS3 when Claire walked in the room with a worried look on her face and as we live in Morganville I was scared that she had been bitten or worse. She sat down next to me and rested her head on my shoulder. I paused the game and wrapped my arms around her.

"Shane I need to tell you something but please remember that I love you more than anything." She told me in a faint worried voice.

"Claire sweetheart I love you too, you can tell me anything." I replied tightening my arms around her.

She took a deep breath and nodded then she muttered "I'm pregnant" she said it so fast I didn't think I'd heard her right.

"What?"

"I'm pregnant Shane!" she told me.

The feeling that ran through me was so powerful it was like I was being swept away by the tide. I was ecstatic; this was one of the happiest days of my life. I was going to be a Dad! Me! I felt my heart swell to make room for this new love I was feeling for my unborn child. I felt the biggest grin in the history of big grins appear on my face. "Really?"

"Yeah Shane you're not angry right?"

"Of course I'm not I'm over the moon! We're going to be parents!" I kissed her then and it was such a passionate kiss that I shocked myself. I pulled away from her and looked into her eyes "I love you Claire"

"I love you too Shane"

*END OF FLASHBACK*

I smiled at the memory.

"Shane?" Claire asked interrupting my thoughts

"Hmmm?"

"I've thought of a name for our daughter but you may not like it."

"Try me."

"Ok...Well I was thinking maybe something along the lines of Alyssa Eve?" She said in a voice that faded as she got to the end.

"Really... after my sister?" she nodded. It had been 10 years since the death of my little sister and it still hurt every day, Claire was turning grief into hope, "It's perfect. I love you!" she smiled and gently touched my face.

After deciding on the name Alyssa Eve-Rose we came up with two names for our son either Sam Michael or Jasper Michael neither of us could choose.
