《Brunette》Part 52
Advertisement
It's now June of 2018.
Nick and Christina didn't get married. They postponed it because I got pregnant even though I told them not to.
I sit up and feel something wet in my leggings.
"Lauren I think my water broke,"I say and shake her.
"What? Oh! I'll get the bags to the car then I'll come back for you!"She says and gets up and puts on her shoes then grabs the hospital bag from the closet and runs to the car.
She comes back up and helps me to the car.
"Looks like you have two baby girls,"The doctor says and hands me one baby and Lauren the other.
"Do you have names for them?"
Lauren nods.
"Electra Violet Cimorelli, and Giovanna Giselle Cimorelli,"
Lauren looks at me.
"Okay it looks like both of the babies are very health and I suggest you rest, but I can let in some visitors if that's okay with you,"The doctor says.
"Yeah that's okay,"I say.
The doctor goes the door and my sisters come in, followed by my mom, Lauren's siblings, and Lauren's parents.
"You want to hold Electra Violet?"I ask Lauren and she nods smiling.
She hands me Giovanna and my moms smiles at me.
"You're lucky you found someone like Lauren in life,"She says.
"Yeah I know,"I smile.
"Can I hold her,"Lisa asks.
'Go wash your hand first then you can,"
She rushes to the bathroom and washes her hands then comes back out.
She sits next to me on the bed and I hand her Giovanna.
"So how was it?"My mom asks.
"Kind of tiring. How did you do all of us?"I ask.
"It got easier after Roni and Nessa,"
"I am hurt!"Addison exclaims.
"I am your twin sister and yet you let my girlfriend hold your child first?"
"Lauren,"I say.
"Go wash your hands,"Lauren says to Addison.
She does the same as Lisa, and Lauren hands her Electra.
Lauren lays down on the bed next to me.
"Are you tired?"She asks.
"Not that much,"I say and kiss her head.
I came home a few days ago and I have not gotten off of the couch.
Lauren brings me everything and the twins are always crying.
"Babe what do you want to eat?"She asks.

"I don't care,"I say trying to stay awake.
She looks at me.
"Give me the children,"She says.
"I have to feed them in an hour, and they're taking their naps,"I say.
"You have an hour to sleep. This isn't healthy. I'm here for a reason, I'm your wife, I'm here to help with the babies. Now go take a nap,"She says.
"Lauren-"
"Go,"
I groan and hand her the twins.
I get up and walk upstairs to our room.
Once I lay down on the bed I instantly fall asleep.
2020
Three years passed and Lauren and the girls have been more busier than ever because Dani left the band.
The twins are so big already. I thought everyone was joking when they say their kids grow up so fast but it's true. You blink and you miss everything.
Katherine got married, Dani and Y/s/N got married, Lisa and Addison are engaged and Roni and Nessa are single still.
Melanie finally stopped trying to tear Lauren and I apart.
"Mommy when is Mama coming home?"Electra asks.
"Soon baby. Where's GG?"I ask.
"In our room. Mommy I'm hungry,"
I lift her up onto my lap.
"What do you want to eat?"I ask.
"I don't know,"
"Alright let's go ask your sister,"I say getting up and carrying her.
I walk into the twins room.
"Giovanna Giselle Cimorelli,"I say once I see her with a crayon, drawing on the wall.
She jumps up and stand in front of the wall.
"Hi mommy,"
"What were you doing?"I ask setting Electra on the floor.
"Nothing,"
"Move over,"
She shakes her head.
"Scoot over or I'll tell mama,"
"No!"
"Did you just yell at me?"
The front door opens but I ignore it.
"No,"
"You're grounded. Clean that up,"I say.
She starts crying.
"I told you not to draw on the wall,"Electra says.
I pick Electra back up.
"Why are you crying baby?"Lauren asks picking up Giovanna, completely ignoring the wall.
"Mommy yelled at me,"
"I didn't yell at her,"
"She grounded me and yelled at me,"
"I'm not doing this right now. She has to clean that up,"I say.
"She isn't cleaning it up, she's four she didn't know any better,"Lauren says.
"GG, Electra go watch tv,"She says setting Giovanna down.

I set Electra back down and they run to the living room.
"You yelled at her?"
"I didn't yell at her!"
"Why would she lie?"
"Because she loves the attention you give her. I swear I didn't yell at her,"
"I'll clean this up. She's only four,"
"Electra is only four. She hasn't drawn on a wall since the first time we told her not to, why can't Giovanna understand that,"
"Do you love Electra more?"She asks.
"No of course not. I love them both equally. Gia just stresses me out sometimes,"
"And Electra doesn't?"
"Not as much. She hasn't done anything to stress me out,"
"Did you ground her?"She asks.
"I mean yeah-"
"Why?"
"Because-"
"Because she messed up this one time? Because she isn't Electra!?"
"Mommy Mama are you fighting?"Electra asks standing by the door.
I pick her up.
"No Violet. We're not fighting,"
"Of course you don't tell her we're fighting. You're sheltering her?"
"No Lauren I'm not. We aren't fighting. Electra can you go put your shoes on and tell your sister to also. We're going to see cousin Mia, and Jacob and Noah,"
I put her down and she nods.
She runs out of the room and Lauren scoffs.
"What?"I ask.
"'Your sister' she has a name,"She says.
"Lauren come on drop it,"
"For now. But we're taking about this later,"
"Lauren why are you making this one thing such a big deal?"I ask.
"This one thing? As if it hasn't happened multiple times. When Electra does something wrong you help her, when GG does you ground her,"
"I don't do that,"
"No you do,"
"Lauren-"
"Just admit it. You'd choose Electra over GG any day,"She says and walks out.
I sigh and lean against the wall.
I look at the drawing on the wall.
Two little girls and one mom.
I groan and walk out of the room.
Electra runs to me.
"Mama said you were fighting,"
"Lauren!"
"I'm sorry. She should know when we fight,"
I put my shoes on.
"Are you two ready?"I ask the twins.
They nod and Electra grabs my hand.
We walk to Laurens car and get in.
She drives to my cousins house.
Once we walk inside the twins run to the back with the other little kids.
"You know what she drew?"I ask Lauren.
"What?"She questions.
"She drew two girls, one mom,"
"If I were treated like her I probably would too,"
"Lauren. That's not fair,"
"What isn't fair is how Electra is your favorite,"
"Lauren I love them both equally. If you want I can spend all week with Gia,"
"No you shouldn't do it because I want you to,"
"Lauren I love them equally,"
"If you did you would punish GG less and punish Electra more,"
"She hasn't done anything,"
"No she has you're just to blinded to see it. Treat them equally,"She says and walks outside.
"So what was that about?"Addison says walking up behind me.
"She thinks Electra is my favorite,"
"Why?"
"Apparently I don't treat Gia the same that I treat Electra,"
"I mean it's kinda true,"
"How is it true?"
"You do get mad at Gia more,"
"Well that's because she does more things wrong! Electra never does anything wrong!"
"Oh. I should probably talk to Gia,"I say looking down.
"Yeah go do that,"
I walk outside and walk to Gia.
"Are you gonna yell at her?"Lauren asks.
"I never yelled at her!"
I sigh.
"Sorry, Gia can I talk to you?"I ask looking at her.
She nods and Lauren walks away.
"I'm sorry for getting mad earlier. I shouldn't have grounded you,"
"Do you love Electra more than me?"
"What? No. Of course not. Why would you think that?"
"I heard you and mama yelling. I'm sorry I drew on wall,"
"It's okay. What can I do to for you to forgive me?"I ask.
"I want ice cream!"
I smile.
"Okay babygirl we'll get ice cream,"
"Now!"She exclaims running inside to the front door.
"Lauren I'll be back,"I say.
"I know,"
Gia and I walk outside and get in Lauren's car go to get ice cream.
After that we go back to my cousins house and Lauren looks at us as we get out the car.
"Did you have fun Gia?"She asks.
"Yeah!"
"Are you finally going to treat her like you treat Electra?"Lauren asks.
"Yeah. I'm sorry Lauren,"
"Where's my apology ice cream?"She asks smiling.
"I got you a tub it's in the car,"
She runs to the car.
She gets the tub and then wraps her arms around me from behind.
I lean into her and she softly places a single kiss on my neck.
"I love you,"She mumbles.
"I love you too,"
