Chapter 10: Doctor's Visit

Rainbow Dash, Soarin, Spectrum and Ace all made their way inside the doctor's office.

"Hi there, what can I do for you?" The receptionist mare asked them. Soarin cleared his throat.

"Hello. My wife made an appointment to find out the gender of her baby today." He said. The mare nodded, and took a few notes down with her quill. After a few mumbles, and turned to the four ponies, and nodded.

"Perfect. Room 13A please. Your doctor will meet you there." She said. Dash thanked the mare, and made her way through the corridors to the many different rooms.

"There's the room, Rainbow!" Ace called out, pointing to a door a few meters away. Dash smiled, and nodded, going up to it, and knocking lightly on the door.

A small, middle aged mare with a turquoise coat and a dark green mane opened the door, and looked upon the arrivals. She instantly smiled upon seeing the pregnant mare.

"Hi, Rainbow Dash, right?" She asked. Dash nodded.

"That's me! And this is my husband, Soarin. And my brother and his wife, Spectrum and Ace." She said, introducing everypony to the doctor. She smiled.

"Hello everypony. I'm Doctor Vine. Who's coming inside with me?" She asked. Dash raised a hoof, and Soarin did as well. Soarin then turned to Spectrum and Ace.

"Do you mind if we do this one alone?" He asked them. Ace smiled, and nodded.

"Of course not! You two go on ahead. We'll be outside here waiting." She said, ushering the couple inside the room with the Doctor.

"Alright, Rainbow. Lets start with some questions." Doctor Vine said. Dash nodded, as she sat up on the bed, and Soarin in a chair next to her.

"So what do you do for a living?" Vine asked them.

"Me and my husband both work as weather ponies for the east side of the Empire." Dash said. Vine nodded, and took a few notes.

"What are your symptoms?" She asked. Dash thought about this one, before answering.

"Well, not any different than any other pregnant mare. The usual... Morning sickness, mood-swings, swelling. Stuff like that." She said casually. Vine nodded again, and wrote some more stuff down with her quill.

"Perfect. Lets begin." She said, taking a bottle of gel out from the cupboard. Slowly, she rubbed it onto the cyan mare's belly, and attached a few cords on.

Vine then backed up, and took a look on the monitor screens.

"Alright! The baby looks nice and healthy. It's growing up fi- Wait... What's this?" She mumbled. Soarin's eyes widened.

"What? What happened, Doctor?" He asked frantically, looking over onto the screen. Vine suddenly broke into a huge grin, and used her hoof to point to something.

"Congratulations, Rainbow Dash and Soarin! You're giving birth to twins!"

"TWINS?" Soarin and Dash both yelled at the same time, causing Ace and Spectrum to burst inside the room.

"Did I hear right? My baby sister's having twins?" Spectrum said, frantically looking around. Vine only nodded, and trotted to the front of the room.

"Yes. One baby boy, and one baby girl. They're growing up fine. Healthy and happy. If you need anything else, I'll be at the front desk filing your papers." She said, walking out of the room, and closing it behind her.

Soarin instantly turned to Rainbow Dash, and held her hooves in his.

"How are you feeling, sweetie?" He asked her with concerned eyes. Dash gave him a slight frown.

"I was barely even ready for one foal... Now we're having two?" She mused quietly, before sitting up in the bed. Soarin gave her a small smile, and wrapped his hooves around her, which she quickly returned.

"Hey now. Dashie... What did I tell you all those months ago the night you told me you were pregnant?" Soarin asked her.

"That you were going to force the oats down my throat if I didn't listen?" She guessed. Soarin chuckled.

"No... I said that you were going to be the best mommy ever. And I was right. You are going to be the best mommy ever." He said, before pulling away from the mare. He placed his hooves on her shoulders, and looked into her eyes.

"And do you know why?" He asked, not giving her a chance to answer. "Because you have me." He finished, kissing her on her forehead. Dash smiled, and looked away from him, biting her lip slightly.

"You really think we'll make good parents?" She mumbled. Soarin only nodded, putting his hoof to her chin, to make her face him again.

"I know we will." He said, before giving her another hug.

The two of them pulled away from each other when they heard light crying coming from the back. Dash and Soarin turned to see Spectrum and Ace with teary eyes, looking at them happily.

"Oh... We're so happy for the two of you..."  Spectrum said, holding his wife in one of his wings. Ace nodded.

"Truer words were never spoken... Have you guys decided on any names yet?" She asked them. Dash and Soarin glanced at each other, before turning back to the older couple.

"Well... We were thinking Rainbow Sandstorm if it was a filly, and Stronghold Skies if it was a colt... But I guess we can use both now? What do you think?" Dash asked. Ace and Spectrum looked at each other with big smiles.

"Sandy and Strongy? Awe... That's so cute!" Ace cooed. Dash grinned, and looked over to Soarin, who was wearing a tender smile.

"Thanks. Picked the names out myself." He said, before covering his mouth, and looking over to Rainbow Dash with wide eyes. Oops! He didn't mean to let that slip!

"Excuse me?" She said in a low voice, walking closer to the scared stallion. Soarin gulped, and took a few steps back.

"Um... Nevermind." He said. Dash only continued.

"Now... You have five seconds to clear up what you just said. Otherwise, you're going to have to face MY wrath." She said with an evil smirk. Soarin didn't like that look...

"Uh... We both chose the names together! But Rainbow Dash did most of it!" He stammered to Spectrum and Ace, who were quietly laughing from their spots. Dash instantly straightened up, and gave him a nod of approval.

"Nice job." She said, before trotting out of the room. Soarin released a sigh of relief, and followed his wife. Wherever she was going.

Rainbow Dash was now officially ten months pregnant. Meaning her due date was coming up fast. She and Soarin had finished their foal shopping a few days ago, and had the room next door to them ready as a nursery.

One night, Dash stood in front of the large mirror in her room, looking over herself.

God she was fat.

And she didn't like it one bit at all.

Would Soarin still love her once he saw her more closely? Would he leave her once he saw her true self?

She hoped not… because she would be heartbroken if he did.

But… What if it did happen? What if he really did leave her?

Suddenly, Dash felt a pair of strong hooves wrapping around her. She snapped out of her gaze, and looked through the mirror, seeing her husband behind her with his arms around her.

Soarin started leaving light kisses from her shoulder up. He breathed hot air onto Dash’s neck, and then continued his journey.

Once he reached her ear, he softly bit down, earning a soft moan from the mare beneath him.

Soarin continued to bite her ear, as Dash slowly closed her eyes, enjoying the pleasure he was giving her. Suddenly, her eyes snapped open again, and she pushed Soarin away from her.

"Dashie? What happened?" He asked her. Dash looked down, and walked over to the bed, sitting down.

"Soarin... I need to ask you something." She said. Soarin scrunched his eyebrows, and sat down in front of her. He took her hooves in his, and looked at her lovingly.

"Go ahead, I'm listening." He said.

"Do you think I'm fat?" She asked him quickly. Soarin's eyes widened, as he just stared at her.

"Dashie... Why are you asking me this?"

"Please answer me... And tell the truth..." She said. Soarin shook his head.

"No. I don't think you're fat." He said simply. Dash shut her eyes tight, and frantically shook her head back and forth.

"No! You're lying! Look at me!" She said, gesturing to her body. Soarin sighed, and held her shoulders, looking her deep in her eyes. He slowly lowered her down so they were both lying side by side on the bed.

"I am seeing you perfectly fine, Dashie. And do you know why you think of yourself this way?" He asked her softly. Dash curiously shook her head no. Soarin smiled, and shifted her body so that her back was facing him. He put his hooves around her, and they landed on her stomach.

Slowly, he started to caress his wife's belly, leaning in to kiss her neck.

"I see a beautiful mare, who's carrying my children. Dashie... You only look this way because you love me. And I love you." He said, kissing her once again.

He lifted one hoof from her stomach, and put it to her neck, starting to rub it thoroughly. He reached the part where Dash's mane ended, and he heard a loud moan from her.

"Mmmmm.... Ahhhh... EEEEEEEKKKIIIIIWWWOOWW!!" She suddenly yelled, as he ran his hoof across the end part of her neck. She instantly blushed, and looked up at the baby blue stallion, who was smirking at her.

"Did I just find another sweet spot?" He asked her. Dash blushed harder, as she bit her lip. Of course, after being with him for so long, he knew most of her weak places... But to find another...

"Mayyyybbeeee..." She teased, lying back down, and letting her husband continue. He chuckled, and turned her so she was face to face with him.

He moved himself down a little till her belly was right in front of him. Lovingly, he stroked a hoof across it, smiling as he felt a little kick. Dash giggled, and watched him go on.

Soarin leaned in, and planted small kisses all over her abdomen, hearing Dash gasp as he did.

"Oh god I love you..." She moaned. Soarin looked up to her, and smiled.

"I love you too, Dashie," he said. he scooted himself up, until he was back to looking at her perfect face. "More than anything I have  in my entire life." He finished, before cupping her cheeks in his hooves, and kissing her passionately.

Dash lifted her own hooves up, and caressed his cheeks, releasing soft gasps every now and then.

She pressed her tongue to his bottom lip, demanding for entrance, which he gladly gave her. She then rolled herself onto him, so her back was resting on his front.

"Will you always love me?" She asked, allowing him to wrap his hooves around her waist once again. He leaned in, and kissed the crook of her neck again.

"Of course I will, baby." He said, breathing hot air down her spine. "Will you?"

Rainbow Dash curled up on him, using his warmth an underside blanket. She slowly heaved herself up, and landed back onto him so she was facing his chest.

"Always..." She said, nuzzling his fur, and hearing his fast, steady heartbeat, knowing it was doing so for her. Only her.

The two lovers laid there on the bed, eventually falling asleep in each other's embrace.

Never wanting to let go.
