A Poem Part 7
   
by Mary Jones
 
p>�I can not believe it has been a whole year.� Mary said helping Angela cook dinner.
�I know it seems like only yesterday we were two run away girls and lived in fear because we thought our Dads were going to find us.� Angela said digging through the fridge.
�When do Davy and Micky come home?� Mary asked glancing at the clock.
�They had better not call in to work late. Not on our one year anniversary�. Angela said cutting up carrots.
�They wont. Davy is a hopeless romantic and he would not let Micky stay late either. Besides how many times do you have to record the same song over again?� Mary ran into the other room and turned on the radio.
�Honey we�re home�. Micky called Davy laughed historically.
�We thought you would call in to say you were going to work late.� Mary said giving Davy a kiss.
�Oops Micky back out the door we forgot today is special.� Davy said turning around.
�Funny Davy. If you forgot, it would be amazing. I mean you and Mary are the two most hopeless romantics I have ever seen in all my life.� Angela said throwing a bowl of veggies into the microwave.
�Yea and besides we know it is a special occasion today because you are actually cooking something that does not come out of a box.� Davy shot back.
�You have a problem with it you can start cooking.� Angela stuck her tongue out.
�Mary luv back me up.� Davy said grabbing onto her as she walked by and pulling her close from around the waist.
�Davy she does have a point. We do clean and do your laundry and all kinds of other stuff. She does more than I do because I am writing.� Mary said working her way out of his grip.
�No support�. Davy said throwing his hands in the air.
�You only get what you give.� Mary said sarcastically.
�Mary you are writing again?� Micky asked.
�Yea. I am writing a sequel.� Mary nodded.
�Another one. This will be number seven right?� Micky asked rolling his eyes.
�They were all a hit and I left it open. I had to do something.�
�And you publisher does not mind?�
�I am selling. Why should he?� Mary asked setting the table.
�I think it is getting a little old.� Micky said.
�You were never one of my fans to begin with. Besides you never even finished the first book.� Mary said laughing.
�I did to. It was the second one I did not finish.� Micky argued.
�Well let�s just drop it okay.� Mary rolled her eyes.
�You know people are starting to bug me about living with you guys.� Davy said sitting down.
�But we are married.� Mary said confused.
�No not you. Angela and Micky�.
�Why?� Angela asked setting a bowl of pasta down on the table.
�Because I am married and my roommates are also a married couple. They think it is kind of kinky.� Davy answered.
�So who cares what they think?� Micky asked.
�Well the media is getting on our cases.�
�Are you saying we should get separate houses?� Mary asked.
�No. Well maybe�. Davy nodded.
�Davy I don�t see why we should. I can not stand the thought of not having Micky and Angela around. Besides we bought this house together.� Mary said sitting next to him.
�Well we may have to someday. What if one of us wants to have kids?�
�We will wait until that happens and then see.� Mary answered giving Davy a kiss.
�Wait a minuet. Davy?� Mary looked into his eyes.
�What?�
�You want kids don�t you? That is what this is about isn�t it?� Mary laughed.
�Mary we have been married an entire year. We have been together for about four. Don�t you think we should start to think about it?� Davy asked.
�Davy I am not ready for a family yet. I mean you are working all the time and I am just getting started with my writing corer. We do not have time to be a Mommy and a Daddy right now and I am not going to get a nanny to take care of my kid. When I slow down writing and your corer is slowing then maybe but not now.� Mary shook her head.
�Well when you are ready let me know.� Davy said disappointedly.
�Uh do you two want to be alone?� Micky asked squirming uncomfortably.
�No. We are fine.� Davy answered. Mary looked at Angela just begging for a conversation.
�So do you guys want to go out dancing or clubbing later?� Angela asked.
�Yea that sounds great. Davy what do you think?� Mary tried to get him excited.
�That sounds great. Lets do it.� Davy nodded.
�He pulled out of that real fast.� Micky whispered to Angela.
�Quiet. You know Mary is afraid of having kids. Does Davy?� Angela whispered back.
�Guys come on. Don�t do that it drives me crazy.� Mary said annoyed.
�Sorry�. Angela said making a face.
�You know what we need?� Micky asked getting an idea.
�What Micky?� Davy asked
�We need a cat or two. Just to liven things up.�
�Yea. We should get two cats.� Davy said getting excited.
�That is a great idea.� Mary said finishing eating.
�We can go look for cats at the pet shop tomorrow.� Angela said helping Mary clear off the table. While they were doing, the dishes Micky decided to talk to Davy.
�Davy I don�t think Mary wants to have kids.� Micky said looking back to see if Angela or Mary could hear him.
�You think?� Davy asked rolling his eyes,
�No listen there is a very good reason for it. Angela told me.� Micky said trying to keep Davy from ignoring him.
�Oh and what is that?� Davy asked suddenly interested.
�She is afraid of having kids. Her childhood was not so great and she had the abortion on top of that. She thinks she is a terrible mother. Also Angela told me about her past lives.� Micky said.
�Past lives?�
�When she was thirteen she found out about her past lives. In one she died during childbirth and in the other she had no children and died very alone. It is hard for her even to commit to a guy. She is afraid of so many things.� Micky explained.
�So we have to get her to overcome her fear or she will never have children?�
�Yes. We also have to convince her you will never leave her. She is trying to break the pattern by never letting go of you but she thinks if she is a bad mother it might ruin your marriage.�
�Now you are just guessing.� Davy said rolling his eyes.
�But it sound like her doesn�t it?�
�Yea your right. First thing we should do is get the cats so she can practice with them.� Davy agreed.
�Hey guys you should get ready to go out.� Mary called from the kitchen.
�We will.� Davy called and bolted up the stairs.
�What is up with him now?� Angela asked.
�I don�t know.� Mary said looking at Micky leaning in the doorway.
�Oh Davy is acting funny and you assume it is my fault.� Micky tried to look innocent.
�Micky that is because it is your fault�. Mary said putting plates away.
�No it isn�t. I didn�t.� Micky sputtered.
�Micky�. Mary said looking him strait in the eyes.
�Well I may have said something to him.� Micky admitted.
�Okay what did you do?� Mary sighed.
�Well just gave him some advice.� Micky said sheepishly.
�You did what?� Angela asked getting involved in the conversation.
�He never takes me seriously. How was I supposed to know he would this time?� Micky shrugged.
�Micky he was upset earlier about kids. When he is upset you make more sense.� Mary said swatting him with a fly swatter.
�Ouch. Well you want me to go talk to him?�
�No!� Mary and Angela said in unison.
�I will go see what he did.� Mary said leaving Angela and Micky in the kitchen.
�Davy what is going on?� Mary asked entering their room.
�Nothing why?� Davy said quietly.
�Because Micky gave you advice and he made sense to you�. Mary said sitting down on the bed.
�Well he is right I think.�
�About what?� Mary leaned up against Davy�s chest.
�Why you don�t want to have kids. He told me.�
�How would Micky know?�
�I can�t say.�
�Angela told him.� Mary nodded.
�Yea�.
�I am afraid of having kids. I have been terrified my entire life. I love you and I would go through anything for you. If you want kids, we can have tons of them. I am jut not ready to be a mother yet. It has nothing to do with my past lives or anything like that. It is simply I am not ready and I do not think you are yet. I may be wrong but that is what I think.� Mary hugged him.
�Is that all?�
�Yes. That is what I told you so that is what it is. Have I ever lied to you?�
�Well there was that time��
�You are supposed to say �No Mary I am sorry I did not believe you.��
�I loved you.� Davy kissed Mary.
�Well that is fine to.� Mary giggled.
�Well come on we are still going out right?� Davy asked.
�Yep. I am all set if you are.� Mary said nodding.
�Okay. Where are Micky and Angela?�
�Angela is giving Micky a hard time about advising you I bet.� Mary left the room.
�When is she going to be ready?� Davy asked himself.
A few weeks later Davy did not seem to be himself.
�Morning Davy�. Mary said groggily stumbling into the kitchen.
�Oh morning�. Davy read the paper.
�What are you looking at?� Mary put her arms around him and looked over his shoulder.
�Oh nothing much.� Davy smiled.
�It is the want ads. Why are you looking at jobs? You have one of the best jobs I can think of.�
�I thought maybe I should do something that maybe would keep me at home most of the time.�
�Why?�
�Well um because��
�Oh I know. No Davy don't quit the band for that. Trust me when I am ready for this e will have kids, I just need a little time.� Mary shook her head.
�It was worth a try.� Davy folded up the paper.
�You know what you did not do?� Mary asked him leaning up against the counter.
�What?� Davy asked turning around to face her.
�You didn�t give me a kiss this morning come here you.� Mary smiled.
�I didn�t? What came over me?� Davy kissed her.
�Save it for the bedroom guys.� Micky rolled his eyes and dug through the fridge.
�Morning to you to Micky�. Mary giggled.
�Yea morning�. Micky mumbled pulling out the orange juice.
�He didn�t get any.� Mary whispered to Davy.
�And how would you know.� Micky croaked pulling a bowl out of the cupboard.
�You never act like this in the morning if you did.�
�Shut up Mary. Did you?�
�None of your business, and I usually do anyway.� Mary stuck her tongue out at him.
�Oh the pain�. Micky staggered to the silverware drawer.
�Okay�. Angela wandered into the kitchen.
�And here is the lucky girl.� Mary giggled.
�What?�
�Never mind Angela�. Davy shook his head.
�Davy you better go get ready you are recording today.� Mary pushed him towards the doorway.
�Alright I�m going.� Davy sighed.
�That�s right Davy, show her whose boss.� Micky giggled.
That night when Micky and Davy got back they were excited.
�Mary you will never guess what?�
�What?� Mary smiled.
�We have the record done and we are going on tour as soon as it is out, in about a month. This is the second big tour!� Davy grinned.
�Oh that is great!� Mary hugged him excitedly.
�Are you going to come with me on this tour?� Davy asked.
�I can�t.� Mary bit her lip.
�Why?� Davy asked disappointed.
�I am putting the book out soon and I need to be here if anything goes wrong.� Mary sighed.
�Oh I understand.� Davy sighed.
�I tell you what, as soon as I can I will join you on the tour. I just won�t be around for the beginning of it.� Mary smiled.
�Alright, I will miss you while you are not with me.� Davy kissed her on the cheek.
�Well we have a few more weeks before you have to go.� Mary smiled.
The next day while Davy and Micky were out Mary called to see if Mike and Peter were with them.
�Hello?� Mike answered the phone.
�Mike why aren�t you with Davy and Micky?�
�Why did you call me if I am supposed to be with them?�
�I asked first.� Mary giggled.
�I have the day off I did not need to be there.�
�Can I come over?� mary asked.
�Sure, come on over. Why?�
�I will tell you when I get there.� Mary hung up the phone.
Mary sat at the table with Mike fidgeting nervously.
�So what did you want to come over for?� Mike asked.
�Well you know how Davy wants to have a baby?�
�Yes, and you are not ready. We all know Mary.�
�Well I am pregnant.�
�Mary that is great!� Mike smiled. Mary shook her head.
�No it isn�t. I do not think I am ready. If Davy knows I am pregnant he will not let me get rid of it. I do not want to put him through that but I don�t want to lie to him. What should I do?�
�Well Mary I should not be the one you talk to about this, what would Davy think��
�He will understand I wanted to talk to you. He wont go on tour If I am going to have a baby and I can not go on the tour with him if I am pregnant. Can I?�
�Well it would traveling with you even more interesting, I just hope it does not react to air planes the way you do.� Mike giggled.
�I am getting better now, I only whimper now.� Mary laughed.
�Look you have to tell him, he has the right to know. Now the choice to have it or not is up to you two to make. All I can say is if you don�t have it you may regret it, and if you do you have to promise me you will spoil it rotten.� Mike grinned.
�I promise. Thanks Mike, I should get home.� Mary hugged him.
�Bye.� Mike opened the door for her.
�Bye, I will call you and tell you what happens.� Mary hurried to the car.
�Davy come here I need to tell you something.�
�I need to tell you something to.� Davy looked upset.
�Well mine is not too important you can go first.� Mary shrugged.
�You know that pretty girl at the studio, the one who likes me?� Davy looked around nervously.
�Yes, what about her?�
�Well before I tell you I am really sorry and I feel awful.�
What are you talking about?�
�Well a few days ago I was there late and I got to talking with her about how I wanted to have children, she really listened and could understand were I was coming from, you know how there are drugs everywhere now it is coming into style I guess you could say. Well I don�t really know what it was but she had me take something.�
�There is it? Davy why would I care?�
�No that is not it.� Davy shook his head. �Well I was in a really weird mood and I did something really bad, well I kind of slept with her.� Davy bit his lip.
�You did what? I can not believe you! What do I mean to you? We have been married for a year! We have been together for about three years! You did a little bit of drugs okay, but even stoned you should not have done that! You have some morals don�t you?� Mary felt wounded.
�I am really sorry, I never wanted to hurt you, it just kind of happened. I will never do anything like that again. I am so sorry and I know there is nothing that will ever make it up to you.� Davy felt like he was going to cry.
�No there isn�t.� Mary left the house and go in the car.
�mary where are you going?� Davy ran out after her.
�Out.� Mary said and pulled out of the driveway.
�What did you do?� Angela asked him.
�I don�t want to talk about it.� Davy slammed the front door shut.
Mary pounded on the door.
�Mike, Peter are you there?� Mary could not stop crying.
�mary what happened?� Mike asked concerned.
�Can I come in?� Mary wiped some of the tears off her cheeks.
�Yes come in and sit down.� Mike lead her into the living room.
�What is the matter?� Peter asked letting Mary cry on his shoulder.
�It�s Davy, can�t believe what he did.� Mary choked out.
�Was it about the baby thing?� Mike asked.
�No I never even told him, I was going to but he had something to tell me first.� Mary shook her head.
�Tell us everything that happened.� Mike held her hand. Mary snuffled trying to get herself to stop crying.
�Well he wanted to tell me something so I told him he could go first, he said he had been talking to that girl Sandra from the studio and she gave him something to take he did not know what it was, well what he said is he ended up sleeping with her. I just can not see him doing that but he did.� Mary began to cry harder.
�he did what?� Mike was shocked.
�He did, he said it was a combination of the drug and being upset and he did not know why he did it.� Mary nodded.
�So he does not know about the baby?�
�No.� Mary shook her head.
�Well is there anything we can do to help you out?� Peter handed her a tissue.
�I can�t stay in that house do you think I could stay here for a few days until I can find somewhere to go. I can�t go back to Dad he will kill Davy and I don�t want to listen to all the I told you So.�s.� Mary blew her nose.
�You can stay here as long as you want, we have two extra rooms since Davy and Micky moved out. You can pick one to stay in.�
�I think I would be better off in Micky�s considering.� Mary forced herself to smile.
�Your right, do you want us to get your things?� Mike nodded.
�Can one of you?�
�I�ll go.� Peter volunteered.
�I will stay here with mary.� Mike nodded. Peter ran out and got into the car.
�You look pretty tired. Do you want to lie down?� Mike asked.
�No, I would rather stay up, and I have got to get this mascara off my face.� Mary looked at the black all over her tissue.
Peter knocked on the door.
�peter have you seen Mary?� Davy answered the door.
�Yes, I am here to get her things.� Peter nodded.
�What? Where is she?�
�She is staying with me and Mike. David you should be ashamed of yourself.� Peter shook his head.
�I know, here I will help you get her things.� Davy bit his lip following Peter up the stairs.
�I�m back.� Peter announced setting two bags down on the floor.
�That was quick.� Mike shrugged.
�I don�t have that much stuff.� Mary had stopped crying.
�Davy wants you to call him, he said you would have to because he did not want to bother you.� Peter sighed.
�I can�t call him now, I know I should but I can�t. he needs to know about the baby, I am going to have it.�
�What? Mary I thought you did not want to have a kid yet.� Mike did not believe her.
�I am going to, I still love Davy but I do not think I can forgive him. I want any child I have to be his, he will make a great Dad even if he did cheat on me.� Mary pushed her hair out of her face.
�Well You should stay here then, we do not want you out there alone if you have a baby, it is nice here and safe. Besides baby�s should have at least an uncle in the house.� Mike smiled.
�A Dad would have been nice but he is only down the road.� Mary picked up the phone and dialed the numbers.
�Hello?� Davy picked up the phone before it was done with the first ring.
�Hi Davy, this is Mary.� She rolled her eyes.
�Mary, I am sorry and I really miss you, please come back.� Davy begged her.
�Davy I don�t have time for this, I am calling to tell you I am pregnant and I am having the poor thing. If you want to talk you can see me tomorrow. Bye.� Mary hung up the phone.
�So Davy what happened?� Angela asked.
�Shit.� Davy hit the wall.
�Not good huh?�
�Mary is pregnant, she is going to have it and I am not going to be able to be there with it like any god Dad would be.�
�Oh my god, so what is going to happen?�
�She said I could see her tomorrow if I wanted to talk.� Davy left the room.
�I am tired, I think I am going to go to bed.� Mary picked up one of her suit cases.
�Here let me carry this one.� Peter grabbed the other one.
�Thanks Peter. You guys have been really good to me and it must be hard for you, you have known Davy longer than me.� Mary hugged mike.
�it is no trouble, you would do the same for any one of us.� Mike smiled.
�Well goodnight.� Mary went up the stairs followed by Peter.
�It is going to be so weird sleeping alone, I have not done that since the last time you guys were on tour, that was about a year ago.� Mary opened one of the cases and pulled out a night gown.
�You will be okay, if you need anything don�t be afraid to ask. I am just down the hall.� Peter set down her case.
�Thanks Peter, listen I just want to say I am sorry for picking on you for not understanding things and not being smart, sometimes you understand more than Davy or me. You are one of the brightest people I know.� Mary kissed him on the cheek.
�That is alright, it never bothered me. We all pick on each other for something. Like Micky for being crazy, and you and�. Well you for being short.� Peter sat down on the bed next to her for a second.
�well anyway I am sorry. Goodnight Peter.�
�Goodnight Mary.� Peter got up and shut her door.
�Why did Davy do it?� mary shut her eyes tight.
Mary could not get to sleep, at about midnight she just gave up.
�Why do I bother?� She asked herself pulling on her bathrobe. She opened her door and tiptoed down stairs.
�Mary is that you?� Peter whispered from behind her. Mary jumped.
�Oh Peter you scared me.� She turned around.
�You couldn�t sleep either?� Peter asked.
�No, I can�t stop thinking abut Davy. I wonder what he is doing right now. Sleeping I bet.� Mary sat down next to Peter.
�Well he might be wondering the same thing about you, I think he is pretty upset to. He gets upset if he does anything wrong. And he never makes the same mistake twice.� Peter sighed.
�I just don�t know what to do, I still love him as much but I know what he did was awful and I will never be able to forget it.�
�he broke your trust, he did something terrible and he has to pay for it. He knew it was wrong. Do you think you will ever be able to trust him again?�
�I don�t know, I think I might, it is so out of character for him to something like that.� Mary shrugged.
�he loves you more than anything if he did not love you he would not have felt bad enough to tell you so soon, and he would not be trying to get you back either. People hardly ever find true love, most never do. You two are so lucky that you have what you do. If you can learn to trust him again and forgive him for what he did you should go back, but if you can�t don�t waste you time and hurt yourself even worse than how you are already hurt. That is all I can tell you to do. Think about it and take your time you do not want to make a mistake, you�re a mother now.� Peter hugged her.
�Thanks Peter, I am going to talk to him today we have a lot to discus I think.�
�Good for you, I wish I could have what you and Davy have, you are so lucky.� Peter looked out the window.
�peter you are nice and understanding, I bet the girls are killing for you. You will find someone, I know you will.�
�You think so? Hey Mary you a little bit hungry? I am.�
�A little bit.� Mary nodded.
�lets go get something to eat.� Peter got up.
Davy knocked on the door.
�What am I going to say to her?� Davy asked himself.
�Hi Davy.� Mary answered the door. Davy dropped to his knees.
�Please come back, please, please, please.� Davy begged her.
�Davy I don�t want to see you beg, have some dignity.� Mary could not help but laugh.
�I knew you would laugh.� Davy smiled.
�Come in we have to talk.�
�Listen I know I did a real bad thing to you, I don�t want to hurt you ever. You are the only girl I have ever loved. I know you can�t trust me now and wont be able to for a long time, but I will never do anything like this again.� Davy sat down next to Mary at the table.
�You know it was a cheep thing to do and most girls would not even talk to you after this, but I still love you and I would want a second chance if I did something wrong. You did tell me after you did it. That is better than most guys. I will come back but if you blow it this time that is it it�s over. Okay?�
�Okay, I will not let you down.� Davy kissed her.
�And I was looking forward to the pitter patter of little feet.� Peter giggled.
�It can visit.� Mary put her hand on her stomach.
�So what are we going to do? I want to be with you when it is born.� Davy smiled.
�I will go on the tour with you, it will be fine.�
�Good we go in a few days� What about your book?�
�Hell with it, I have a ton of them out besides they do not need me for anything.� Mary shrugged.
A few days later they were on an air plane.
�mary is doing really well.� Micky smiled.
�That is because she passed out when we took off.� Davy giggled.
�It is just as well.� Peter shrugged.
�Are we in the air?� Mary asked waking up.
�Yes.�
�Oh.� Mary smiled.
�Who are you and what have you done with Mary?� Davy asked her.
�I have been on them enough I just thought it was not worth the energy to panic.� Mary shrugged.
�So what you are saying is that you decided to not be afraid? Why didn�t you do that before?� Mike rolled his eyes.
�I don�t know, this is kind of fun actually.� Mary peered out the window.
�Davy would you mind if I hurt her?� Angela asked.
�Yes, she is pregnant it would not be good for the baby.�
�Then I will wait until she has it.� Angela groaned.
A few moths later while a concert were going.
�Oh no.� Mary put her right hand on her stomach.
�What is it?� Angela asked filing her nails.
�I am having a baby.� Mary tried to breath.
�yea tell me something I don�t know.�
�No Angela I am going to have it soon.�
�Not for a week the doctor said.�
�Well he was wrong.� Mary doubled over in pain.
�What? Oh shit. What should I do?� Angela�s eyes were wide.
�get Davy as soon as you can.� Mary groaned.
�He is in concert right now.�
�This is his kid I am having I don�t think he will care.� Mary tried to stand up.
�I am calling an ambulance.� Angela picked up the phone.
�Good.� Mary managed to get up. The ambulance got there and took Mary to the hospital, Angela went to get Davy.
�Is the show almost over?� Angela asked desperately.
�This is the last song.� One of the crew told her.
�Angela what are you doing here?� Davy asked.
�Mary is at the hospital having the baby.� Angela pulled on his arm.
�What? Fellas Mary is having the baby lets go.� Davy ran out the door and got into a taxi.
�Where to?� The driver asked.
�The hospital and quickly.� Davy said handing the driver twenty dollars.
�Yes sir.� The driver screeched out of the parking lot.
�Davy asked the nurse where Mary was.
�Oh you must be the father, she is there here you have to wear this.� The nurse handed him a blue suit.
�And who are you guys?� The nurse asked Micky.
�we are in the band.� Micky answered.
�I see, here you are.� She handed each of them a suit. Mike looked at Micky.
�Well put them on guys, I guess we get to watch.� Micky shrugged.
�Those bands, don�t they ever stop.� The nurse shook her head.
Davy held Mary�s hand.
�breath, it is going to be over soon.� Davy tried to encourage her.
�I knew that.� Mary moaned. Micky, Mike, and Peter ran into the room.
�Who are you/� The doctor asked.
�We are in the band.� Micky answered.
�Oh.� The doctor nodded filling out some papers.
�Mary we need to do the birth certificate accept date and time.� The doctor spoke softly.
�Can you talk to one of them.� Mary pointed at Mike.
�I can.� The doctor began to ask Mike questions.
�Davy I love you.� Mary whispered.
�I love you to.� Davy smiled. Micky was taking pictures.
�Micky take it easy with the flash.� Mary rubbed her eyes then doubled up again.
�Doctor the contractions are getting closer together.� A nurse called.
�Oh god.� Mary whimpered.
�Alright mary you are going to have to push now.� The doctor told her.
�You think, I thought I should just leave it in there.� Mary snapped. Mike giggled.
Hours passed finally it was over.
�mary you are now the proud mother of a bouncing baby girl� The nurse handed her a baby.
�And another girl.� The doctor handed Davy another baby.
�What was that?� Mary�s eyes got big.
�that is right mary twins. Congratulations.� The doctor nodded.
�You have got to be joking.� Mary looked back and forth between them.
�Well one of them is very small and does not look to well, can you hand me that one I need to have it monitored.� The doctor spoke slowly.
�it is sick?� Mary asked giving it to the nurse.
�It did not do to well from what we can see.� The doctor shook his head.
�And what about this one?� Mary pointed at the baby Davy was holding.
�That one should be fine but we have to run tests on it to.�
�Oh.� Mary smiled. Mike took a few pictures.
Mary stayed in the hospital with the babies for a few days.
�mary I am sorry to tell you this but the smaller baby, it passed away about ten minutes ago.� A nurse sat down next to mary.
�What?� Mary began to cry.
�I am sorry but it was just too weak, and this may sound rather cruel, but it was just as well. It had a tough life ahead with all the birth defects.�
�I know your right but I still wish it was alive.� Mary shook her head.
�I called your husband he is on his way.� The nurse left the room. A few minutes later Davy was there.
�Oh Mary, are you alright?� Davy hugged her.
�No, I am not, this is just what I was afraid of. At least we still have one of them. I just want to go home I hate being here.� Mary held on to him tightly.
�We can go, we can take the one out of the hospital it is healthy enough.�
�Then we are going, now.� Mary got up and got dressed.
�I will talk to the nurse.�
When Davy returned he was carrying a baby.
�Alright do I need to do anything?� Mary asked.
�Well you can carry the birth certificates.� Davy handed her a folder.
�We have copies?� Mary opened the folder and took a quick look.
�yes, come on I have the guys in the car.� Davy handed the baby to mary for a second and opened the door.
�I will hold it in the car.� Mary said.
�Okay.� Davy opened the car door for her.
�Hi guys.� Mary smiled.
�Mary we are really sorry.� Mike smiled at the baby.
�It is alright, it is better that way, it was not her time yet.� Mary shrugged.
�Did you name the baby yet?� Micky asked her.
�Davy what are we going to name it?� mary smiled down at it.
�I don�t know, she is the prettiest baby I ever saw though.�
�She has your eyes, those really deep brown ones. She is lucky.�
�I like your eyes.� Davy laughed.
�Yea but yours are better.� Mary smiled as Davy pulled into the hotel parking lot.
�Come on Mary it has been a rough day.� Davy opened her door.
�I know.� Mary whispered.
A few days later they were home, they had a few days to take a break from the tour.
�hey mary I took a look at the certificates, there is a problem with the father�s name.� Micky giggled.
�Well there shouldn�t be I answered all the questions the doctor asked me.� Mike took one of the papers.
�Yea so why is the fathers names Davy Jones, Peter Tork, Mike Nesmith, and Micky Dolenz?� Micky giggled.
�Well that is your fault, they must have thought that she slept with all of us and we did not know because you said we are in the band when they asked who you were.� Mike laughed.
�So she has four Dads?� Mary took a look.
�Yea, lucky girl. Do you want to get it fixed?� Micky asked.
�I don�t care. It is up to you guys.�
�Why bother?� Davy shrugged.
�True. Let�s just leave it.�
�It is going to be confusing.� Peter laughed.
�What do you mean?�
�What are we going to do when it yells Dad and we all come running?� Peter grinned.
�We need to think of a name for the little tike.� Davy handed it to Micky for a second.
�Well what do you think she looks like?� Mary asked.
�I don�t know, Mike what do you think?� Micky handed the baby to Mike.
�Well I don�t know, Peter is good at this stuff.� Mike passed the baby to Peter.
�Well she has really beautiful eyes. How about Iris?�
�No.� Mary shook her head.
�So what do you think Mary?�
�I always told my mom I would name a girl Marigold Salvia.�
�She is not the plant type.� Davy shook his head.
�your turn Davy.� Mary giggled.
�Well how about Scarlet?�
�It is a color that wont work.� Micky shook his head.
�Why don�t we make something up?� Peter suggested.
�That is the best idea so far.� Mike nodded.
�Or we could name her Grizelda.� Peter smiled.
�No.� Davy shook his head.
�Well what can we call her?� Mary turned on the radio.
�That�s it!� Mike snapped his fingers.
�What?� mary asked.
�Listen to the song.�
�Daydream Believer. What is your point?� Mary shrugged.
�Jene. It would be great, she would even have her own song.� Mike grinned.
�Yea. Should she have a middle name?� Davy held Jene in his arms.
�Valleri.� Mary grinned.
�This is getting good. Jene Valleri Jones, it has a good ring to it.� Micky nodded.
�Better than having the last name Bottom.� Mary giggled.
�Cheer up sleepy Jene�� Davy sang to Jene.
�Davy look at that you made her cry.� Peter giggled.
�No she is hungry.� Mary took the baby.
�So how do you feed her?� Peter asked
�Well um�� mary blushed.
�Oh right.� Peter nodded and left the kitchen.
�Hey where is Angela?� Micky left.
�I am going with Peter.� Mike smiled.
�Can I watch?� Davy grinned.
�You can, but having all of them well�� Mary lifted up her shirt and let Jene eat.
