Chapter 7

Wolf sat on the couch watching Flicka that he and Falcon had bought a few days before. Falcon came over with a bowl of popcorn and set it on the table in front of them. He laid on the couch and put his head on Wolf's lap. He had his hand over their babies. He noticed that the babies had begun to move more the past three weeks. His stomach was also bigger. It was very clear that he was pregnant now and he was only 4 ½ months pregnant.

He always used the names for the babies whenever he talked about them to Wolf or their parents. He laid in his favorite position on the couch with his head on Wolf's lap. He smiled as Wolf began to play with his hair. He smile widened as Wolf began to rub his stomach. He let out a sensual groan because of the feeling the slight touch caused. "You know, I totally forgot that rubbing your stomach felt that good to you. I think I could use that to my advantage." He sat Falcon up before standing and carrying him to their bedroom.

"Now, if memory serves doing this…" Wolf drew a lazy circle on Falcon's stomach with his finger. "Make you happy. I wonder what can happen if I do that while we have a little fun." Wolf smiled evilly as Falcon giggled.

Falcon and Wolf lay on the bed naked. "That was great. I never would have guessed that I would have such a reaction just from your rubbing my stomach. And I think the twins liked it too. They are sleeping." He rubbed his stomach gently not wanting to wake the twins.

"Well, we may have to do that more often then." Wolf said as he put his hand over their children. "Just think love, after they are born they will be controlling our lives. Our every moment will be for them. We will have people that need us." He pulled Falcon into his embrace.

"Yeah, but it will be worth it to watch them grow up into respectable adults. And no matter what happens we will all be happy together." He smiled as Wolf began to kiss his neck. "Hey, we have had enough fun for now. But I do have an idea, how about we go take a long, hot bath and after that, we can see you mom and dad. Your dad should be back from his business trip now right?" Falcon asked as Wolf played with his hair.

"Yeah, I think so. I wonder if mom told him about Blade and Crimson yet." Wolf stood and carried Falcon to the bathroom. He set him on the counter and turned on the water for the bath. "All I know is that I am gonna take care of you and our babies as if the world depended on it." He picked Falcon up again and sat with him in the tub. He set Falcon between his legs and began to clean his stomach with a washcloth as Falcon fell asleep leaning against him.

~~~~

Falcon was home alone; he was reading a book on his bed. It really helped him and the babies relax. He was surprised when he heard the front door bang open. He knew already it wasn't Wolf. He had no reason to bang open the door like that. He got scared when he heard things being thrown around in every room. Then the sound came towards the bedroom. The door flew open and a man wearing black pants and red t-shirt walked in. Falcon cringed as he tried to get away. "How lucky I am, I can end everything right now. And there is no one here to protect you. I wonder what Wolf will say when he comes home finding you and his child dead."

Falcon put his hand over his stomach protectively. "No, please don't hurt them. I will do anything, just don't hurt my babies." Falcon begged and pleaded but nothing seemed to phase the man. The man walked over to the bed, grabbed Falcon by his hair and pulled it forcing Falcon to arch back to ease the pain. He never moved his hands from his stomach. "Please stop, I will do anything I swear."

"Sorry, that isn't good enough for me." He pulled Falcon's hair and smiled as Falcon fell to the floor. Falcon tried to roll so he wouldn't fall on his stomach. He fell onto his side. "Come on now, don't ruin the fun. You are much harder to hurt than it was to hurt Wolf. Sadly all he got was a cut to his head." Falcon looked shocked; he was looking at the man that had caused the car accident 2 weeks ago. "What? You think I crashed into him? No way, I would have been caught. I had a friend do it for me. The guy may be in jail but it was worth it."

The man walked over to Falcon and went to kick his stomach. Falcon rolled to his other side just in time for the man to kick his back. "Stop moving already! Just let me do what I came here to do!" The man picked Falcon up and threw him into the wall, and he made sure Falcon's stomach hit the wall. "Oh, what a shame. You ran into a wall." He said in mock sympathy. "Wolf doesn't deserve you. He was better with me!" the man banged Falcon's head against the wall.

"TOMAS LET HIM GO!" Wolf yelled at the man. Tomas just shook his head no. "I mean it Tomas. Let him go right now." His last word came out as a growl. He saw the way Tomas had Falcon pushed against the wall. His first thought when he walked into the room was Falcon and his children. When he recognized Tomas, he became furious.

Tomas was the man Wolf was dating before he met Falcon. He left Tomas two months before he met Falcon because Tomas was being controlling and obsessive. He had heard the noises coming from upstairs. He heard everything Tomas had said about the accident and about what he planned on doing to Falcon and his children. "Why should I Wolf. We should have been together, but you left me and went to this." He pulled Falcon away from the wall and pushed him into it again. This time Falcon knew what was coming and put his hands over his stomach in an attempt to protect his babies from any further harm.

Wolf cringed as Falcon was pushed into the wall with enough force that his children were probably dead. Tears came to his eyes and he let his anger show. He walked up to Tomas and punched him so hard he fell the floor. Wolf caught Falcon as he fell back. He looked at Falcon's stomach with fear. "Oh Falcon, I am so sorry. This is my fault." He looked at Tomas when he groaned and attempted to stand. He laid Falcon on the floor and walked over to Tomas. He punched him again sending him into the wall. "You bastard! I cannot believe you would stoop so low to attack my fiancée and my babies. Now they are probably dead because of you." He walked over to the bedside table and pulled out a pair of handcuffs. He put them on Tomas literally binding him to the door of the bathroom.

He walked back to Falcon with tears streaming down his face. He called 911 requesting an ambulance and the police to take Tomas away. He cradled Falcon in his arms as he waited for the ambulance to show up. He opened Falcon's white dress shirt to assess the damage. Falcon's stomach was completely bruised. Tomas had intended for this to happen. He wanted Wolf to suffer. Falcon groaned and his eyes began to close. "No Falcon, stay awake. You need to stay awake. Please stay awake love." He put a hand on Falcon's stomach he cried when Falcon winced in pain.

He looked up when he heard the police knocking on the door. "We're upstairs!" he yelled, the police came up first and saw Wolf cradling Falcon in his arms. They yelled down for the EMT's to hurry up. They asked what happened and he explained everything to them. He cried as he watched the EMT's put Falcon in the ambulance. One of the cops offered him a ride to the hospital because he was too disoriented to drive. "No, I am going with Falcon. But thank you for the offer." He climbed into the ambulance and grabbed Falcon's hand.

Chapter 9

Wolf was lying in the hammock in the back yard enjoying a warm spring day. He was wearing a pair of shorts; he was reading "Dark Melody" By Christine Feehan. His one leg was over the side of the hammock rocking it gently back and forth. It had been 1 month since the incident with Tomas. Falcon was now 5 months pregnant. The bruises had finally all disappeared and Falcon was back to acting like himself again. He would occasionally get nightmares about what happened, but they had slowly started to go away as well. "Hey, give that back!" He said when Wolf took the book from him. "I was reading that." He smiled when Wolf set the book on the table next to the hammock.

"What? That book is more important than me?" Wolf said with a smirk on his face. "And I thought I was more interesting to you." He smiled as Falcon moved over on the hammock. He laid next to Falcon and put his hand over their children. He kissed Falcon before he rocked the hammock back and forth. He noticed the rocking motion seemed to calm the babies. "I can see that Crimson and Blade like the hammock as much as their mommy do." He began to rub small circles over Falcon's stomach. "How are you feeling?"

"Like a blimp, and Crimson and Blade are always moving unless I am lying here rocking back and forth in the hammock. Nothing else seems to calm them, well other than when we talk to them." He smiled again when Wolf stopped moving the hammock so he could feel the babies moving. "You are trying to torture me aren't you?" He asked when the twins started to kick vigorously.

"I am sorry, but I can't believe that they are still here, safe where they belong." He began to trace a design on Falcon's stomach. "Maybe they can tell how much they mean to us and want us to know they are ok, that's all. They know how much we were worried about them, so they are reassuring us that they are ok." He started to draw lazy circles over Falcon's stomach. He once again began to rock the hammock. Both men were lulled to sleep by the rhythmic rocking of the hammock.

~~~

Falcon woke to a beautiful sight. Wolf was lying next to him still asleep. He was rubbing Falcon's stomach while snoring. Falcon just smiled and laid there until Wolf woke. "Hey, were you by any chance dreaming about Crimson and Blade?"

"Yeah, how did you know?" he looked confused.

"You were rubbing my stomach in your sleep. It was kinda cool to wake up to though. I liked it." He smiled as he leaned forward to kiss Wolf. He got scared when his phone rang. Both men fell out of the hammock. Falcon landed with Wolf cradling him to his body in an attempt to keep Falcon and his babies from harm. "My knight in shining armor right?" He smiled as Wolf began to laugh. "But wait, that makes me the damsel in distress. I may have been in distress but I am most certainly not a damsel." Falcon stood and retrieved her phone from his pocket to see who called. He looked at the caller ID and saw it was Maureen. He called her back "You called Maureen? Yeah sure, we can come over in an hour. Ok bye." He put his phone in his pocket and looked at Wolf. "Your mom wants us to come over in an hour, she won't say why though."

~~~~

Wolf parked the car in his mom's driveway and both men got out of the car. Falcon had decided today would be the last day he wore his beloved boots. He walked with Wolf to the house, they walked in and found Maureen and Daniel sitting on the couch waiting for them. "Hey you wanted to see us?" Falcon said with wonder.

Daniel stood up and walked over to them. "Yes, we did. We know that you are engaged and we decided to help pay for the wedding. It is our present to you. And we won't take no for an answer." Both men looked shocked at what they were told.

"Dad, you don't have to do that. We can afford the wedding." Wolf put his arm around Wolf. "We have been prepared for this for a while now."

"I don't care Wolf. Your mother and I are helping and there is no way you can stop us. With all the hospital bills you have right now I really doubt you can pay for the wedding on your own." Daniel said with authority.

Wolf blushed at the truth his father was handing him. "Fine dad, but things are still done our way. We have been planning our wedding for a while now and we have certain ideas."

"Like what Wolf, we not change anything, we just want to know." Maureen said as she made Daniel sit. She pointed to the couch encouraging Wolf and Falcon to sit as well.

"Well, we want the wedding in our back yard this summer. It is gonna be a small ceremony for our friends and family. We don't have a date yet; but we will soon. We want to be married before Crimson and Blade are born." Wolf said as he rubbed Falcon's stomach.

"Good, we will all work together on this now. Did you really think you could not include us in your wedding? There is no way that would happen." Maureen said as she walked over to Wolf and Falcon on the couch.
Falcon looked speechless. "Maureen, I don't know what to say. I am glad you want to help, I really am. But what can I say? You two have done so much for us already. I am glad you want to help, really. This means a lot to me." He looked like he was about to cry.

"Falcon, don't cry. Everything is fine, you should be happy." Maureen and Wolf began to soothe him.

"I am happy, it's just that my emotions take over sometimes and I can't control them." He said through his tears. He put a hand over his stomach when the babies moved again.

~~~~

Three hours later Wolf and Falcon were heading back to their house. They had all agreed that the wedding would be within the next month. When they got home, they were surprised to see Althea's car in the driveway. Falcon walked ahead of Wolf until they got to the living room. He saw his mom sitting on the couch reading a book. "Mom what are you doing here?"

"Well," she put the book on the table. "I wanted to see my son and my son in law. I haven't seen either of you in a while and I was starting to miss you, so I came over." Falcon hugged his mother and laughed when Blade and Crimson kicked. "I can see they are active, I am glad." Falcon and his mom sat on the couch while Wolf went to make them all lunch.

Wolf came back 5 minutes later with sandwiches. He set the plate of sandwiches on the table and sat next to Falcon. He smiled when Falcon leaned against him. "Althea, it is good to see you again. Sorry we haven't come to visit, but we have been busy." He put his hand over Falcon's stomach so Crimson and Blade would calm down. "We have had a lot to do over the past month. But thankfully, things have slowed down enough for us to relax a little. The twins have gotten very active lately. Dr. Taylor said that they are progressing very well. We have an appointment tomorrow actually."

"Yeah, maybe you can come with us mom." Falcon said as he sat up. "I would love it if you could join us."

"Sorry baby, but I can't. I have something planned already. If not for that, I would gladly join you. But maybe next time ok?" Falcon nodded as Wolf began to rub his stomach. "Daniel and Maureen told me they want to help pay for the wedding. I am guessing you talked to them already." Both boys nodded. "Well, I told them I would help anyway I can. I am glad that you are getting married. I can't wait until I walk you down the aisle Falcon."

"Mom, you're gonna make me blush." He smiled at her affectionately. "Neither of us can wait for the wedding. We were actually on our way back from talking to Maureen and Daniel when we found you. We decided that the wedding would be by the end of next month. We are gonna have it in the backyard. An of course you're invited. But there is one thing I am telling everyone now. I refuse to wear a dress." Althea and Wolf just started to laugh.

~~~~

Falcon sighed as he looked at his beloved boots knowing that he wouldn't see them again until after his children were born. He put them in a shoebox and put them in the closet. He had to start wearing his black sneakers that he usually kept in the car. He put the shoes on as he waited for Wolf to come back downstairs. "Wolf, if you don't hurry up we are gonna be late." He grabbed his car keys and started to walk to the door. He stopped and turned around when the keys were pulled out of his hand. "Hey give those back." Wolf just shook his head. "I can still drive you know. Just cause I am in my 5th month I don't have to stop driving."

"I don't care Falcon. I have been scared enough where you are concerned. I am not gonna have you drive the car with the chance of you or the twins getting hurt again. You have no choice in the matter. I am driving and that is final." Falcon looked at Wolf with his hands on his hips. "You can scowl all you want, but I am still driving now get in the car, we have to go." He pushed Falcon out the door and made him sit in the passenger seat. He pulled the car out the driveway before talking again. "Falcon I know you like to drive, but I don't need to worry that something can happen. I worried enough for the both of us when Tomas hurt you. I don't want to feel that way again. Now please just try to understand." Falcon just looked out the window when Wolf looked over at him. When Wolf put a hand on his leg, he would push it off. Neither man talked the rest of the way to Dr. Taylor's office.

When they arrived, Falcon got out the car and walked into the office not even waiting for Wolf. He had already checked in with the receptionist when Wolf walked in and sat next to him. Wolf again tried to talk to him, but Falcon just started to read a magazine. When they were called back, Falcon even ignored Wolf when he tried to help him stand. He stood up on his own after a little effort and waddled behind the nurse towards the examination room. He sat on the table and Wolf leaned up against the wall. Falcon smiled when Dr. Taylor walked in. "Hello Falcon how are you feeling today?"

"Alright I guess. Crimson and Blade are moving a lot recently. Is that normal?" he rubbed his stomach as Dr. Taylor walked over.

"Yes, it's perfectly normal. Things are just starting to get cramped for them, space is getting smaller and they don't have much room to move around. I am guessing that one moves right after the other right?" Falcon nodded. "That is because when one moves the other probably gets tapped and responds to the action. What they are doing is perfectly normal. There is no need to worry. Now I am gonna have you lay back and we will do your ultrasound ok?"

Falcon laid back on the table as Dr. Taylor turned on the machine. He shivered when she put the gel on his stomach. He watched the screen attentively as he waited for his children to become visible. "They are so beautiful." He said when he saw them. "So, are they still doing ok? Is there any problems that you can see?" Dr. Taylor shook her head. "And I have a question, is it safe for me to drive still?"

"Yes, it is perfectly safe as long as you keep the seat as far back from the wheel as possible. The pressure of the wheel on your stomach could harm the babies if you are too close to it. But other than that, there is no reason you still can't drive. Why?"

"No reason, just curious." He looked over at Wolf and smiled. "These two better be good when they are older. I am going through a lot for them. I even gave up wearing my boots cause I am afraid I might trip and fall. I noticed they only relax when I am swinging in the hammock in my backyard or if I am walking around. Any other time they are kicking up a storm. I am starting to feel like a punching bag." He wiped the gel off his stomach as Dr. Taylor printed out the ultrasound picture.

"That is completely normal, don't worry. And they relax when you're in the hammock or moving because you are essentially rocking them to sleep. The rocking motion is soothing to them." Falcon nodded saying that he understood. "Well, I want you to make an appointment for next month on your way out ok?" Falcon nodded and headed out the door.

Wolf stayed behind and waited for Falcon to leave. "Dr. Taylor, can I talk to you for a minute."

"Sure Wolf, what is it?"

"Well, I wanted to ask something. How much can mood swings affect a person when they are pregnant?" Dr. Taylor looked at him waiting for more info. "If you hadn't noticed Falcon has been avoiding me ever since we left to come here. I told him I didn't want him to drive the car cause I was worried and he hasn't talked to me since. He has been ignoring me entirely. What do I do, I love him so much, but right now I wonder if he feels the same way."

"Wolf, he does love you. The way he is acting is partially because of mood swings, but also because he likes his independence. All mothers are that way, as the pregnancy progresses he won't be able to do most things without help. He wants to do things on his own not have someone treat him like an invalid. Just let him drive until he doesn't feel comfortable anymore. He wants to do things while he still can. I know you were worried when he got hurt, but he and the twins are fine. Let him do things while he still can and remember he does love you, I can tell by the way he looks at you most of the time."

"Thank you that helped a lot. Maybe now I can get him to talk to me. Well, I better go. He should be waiting for me." He turned and walked out the room. He found Falcon leaning against the car with his hands on his stomach. "Here, you drive." He threw Falcon the keys and walked to the passenger side of the car. He put his arms around Falcon and kissed him passionately in the parking lot. "Falcon, I am sorry for what I said, but you and our children mean everything to me. I am afraid that something bad can happen to you. I almost lost all of you once, I don't want there to be another chance." Falcon smiled as a tear streamed down his cheek. Wolf pulled out a tissue and wiped the tear away. "And Falcon, I hope you understand why I said what I said. Now start driving before I change my mind." Falcon walked around the car and got into the driver's seat.

They got home 20 minutes later. Falcon got out the car and walked over to the passenger side. He opened the door and kissed Wolf with all the passion in his body. When Falcon finally released him, Wolf looked at him with surprise. "I am guessing you forgive me now huh?" Falcon just kissed him again. Wolf picked falcon up and carried him into the house and into their bedroom. He laid Falcon on the bed and looked at him seductively.

"Hey down mountain man, I thought we agreed no more fun until after Crimson and Blade are born. So calm down before I have to throw water on you." He giggled when Wolf advanced toward him. "Wolf, I am serious. I will throw water at you." He always had a glass of water on his side of the bed for when he woke up at night. He began to reach for the water, but gasped when Wolf grabbed his wrists and pinned them above his head. He tried to get free. "Wolf, come on let me go. I am not so sure about this, is it still safe? What if it hurts the babies?"

Wolf sobered up immediately and released Falcon's wrists. He sat next to Falcon on the bed and cuddled up to him. "I am sorry love. I am not thinking. I guess I just need to think before I act more now that you are getting along in the pregnancy. I only had one thing on my mind. I am sorry." He kissed Falcon's cheek and pulled him closer. "I love you so much Falcon. I can't wait until we are married."

"Neither can I Wolf." He leaned into Wolf. "Just think soon we will be married and we will have our babies in our arms. That will be the best moment of all; we will be married and holding Crimson and Blade in our arms." Falcon sighed contently at the idea.

Chapter 11

Falcon had reached the 6th month of his pregnancy. The day before he had his monthly appointment with Dr. Taylor. She told him the babies were progressing normally and that he would need to take it easy. He was sitting in the hammock in the back yard just trying to get the twins to relax. Nothing seemed to calm them, Falcon was wondering if they were just trying to torture him. It was getting hot out but sadly it was not hot enough to use the pool yet. He was gonna have the company come out to clean the pool tomorrow and have it filled. He may not use it right away but he planned on starting to soon. He smiled as Wolf came out with lemonade for him.

"Are you feeling any better honey?" Falcon shook his head no. "I am sorry, I wish there was something I could do. I hope they calm soon, you have been out here all day. It is a miracle you don't have sunburn yet." He sat on the ground next to the hammock. He smiled when Falcon sat up and put his legs around Wolf. He leaned forward and kissed Falcon's stomach. "Why won't you two calm down. Your making your mom very exhausted."

"How did you do that. You must have done something, did you promise them money or what?" Wolf looked confused. "Right after you told them to stop they stopped. What did you do? Did you slip something in the lemonade that would cause them to pass out?"

"First off I would never give you anything that would effect you or the twins in a bad way. And second I didn't do anything except kiss your stomach and say they were making you tired. Maybe they just know I mean business." He sat next to Falcon in the hammock before rubbing his stomach. "I am sorry they are acting up baby. From what my parents say, they got that from me. Me and Marie were the same way. You still need to meet her kids you know. Their names are Arya and Jaz short for Jasmine. They are a lot like their mom. They are identical, the only way to tell them apart is Arya always wears a necklace and jasmine doesn't." He kissed Falcon lovingly. "Maybe we can have them come over in the next few days so you can meet them. How does that sound?"

"That sounds great, how about they come over tomorrow? We don't have any other plans do we?" Wolf shook his head no. "Great then call your sister and tell her to bring the kids over; we will make a party out of it."

Wolf nodded, pulled out his phone and called Marie. "Hey Marie, what do you mean who is this? It's your brother you brat. Listen, Falcon and I were wondering if you could bring Arya and Jasmine over so they can meet their new uncle. Great, ok I will. Love you too Marie, see you tomorrow." He put his phone back in his pocket and smiled at Falcon. "Marie said she will bring the kids over around 12. She is excited that you want to meet them."

"Well I need to know what to expect with Blade and Crimson. Maybe meeting your nieces can give me an idea or two." He laughed as Wolf looked at him with laughter in his eyes.

"They are your nieces too Falcon. Now that we are married they are your nieces too." Falcon cuddled closer to Wolf and fell asleep in his embrace.

~~~

Wolf woke and immediately reached his hand across the bed searching for Falcon. He sat up and opened his eyes when he noticed Falcon's side of the bed was empty. "Falcon?" He said hoping Falcon would answer him. When there was no answer, he got out of bed and began to search the house. He relaxed a little when he got downstairs and found Falcon cleaning up. "Falcon what are you doing?" He walked up to Falcon and took the cleaning supplies away from him. "You should not be working so hard this far into the pregnancy, now sit down before I carry you to the couch and force you to sit." Falcon sighed before walking to the couch and sitting. "Now what is going on, I wake up and find you gone. Again!"

"Sorry, I was just excited and woke early. I figured why not clean up the house a little. I just want today to be perfect." He looked down at his hands, which were resting on his stomach. "I am really nervous Wolf. I know Marie is supportive of us, but how will her daughters act when they see me, a pregnant man. I doubt they will be kind."

Wolf pulled him close and rubbed his back. "Falcon, there is no reason to be nervous. Jaz and Arya already know that you're pregnant. I had that talk with them before we were married. They know how I feel about you and about Crimson and Blade. They are supportive of you, trust me. They love you and can't wait to meet you. They were already telling me how they planned to play with their cousins when they were older." He put the cleaning supplies in a pile before looking back at Falcon. "Now I am gonna go make you something to eat. Can I trust you to not clean anything while I am gone?"

"Yeah, I'll be good. I promise." He shifted position so he was lying on the couch with his head on one arm and his feet on the other. "I won't move from this spot, I swear." He put his hands over his stomach before looking at Wolf and smiling.

"I am trusting you." He kissed Falcon before walking into the kitchen. Falcon waited until Wolf was gone before getting up and starting to clean the living room. "I thought you wouldn't move." Falcon turned around to find Wolf standing in the doorway with two plates in his hands. Falcon just smiled at him. "You promised Falcon, if I didn't have these plates in my hands you would be in so much trouble. Now get over here before I decide to punish you." Falcon set the cleaning supplies back on the pile Wolf had made earlier before walking over to the table to sit. "Falcon I am serious, you need to calm down and try to relax. I don't want anything to happen to you or our children. Do you know that most of those chemicals you were using can be harmful to you and the babies? If you want something cleaned have me do it. I don't want anything bad to happen. And if I have to, I will lock the cleaning supplies in the shed and hide the key. I am gonna give you one more chance before I take drastic measures. Now please just promise me you will slow down some, if not for me do it for Crimson and Blade alright?" Wolf asked; he clearly looked worried.

Falcon sighed and put a hand over his stomach as the babies moved. "Fine, but haven't I given up enough for these two already. I gave up my boots, I gave up job, and I even gave up my daily run. And soon I am gonna have to give up driving MY car. I can't take this anymore. I am really wondering if it was a good idea to keep them. Lately I have been thinking about a lot of things, I just want my life back." He stood up and walked to the room he shared with Wolf. He closed and locked the door before lying on the bed crying. His hand was over his stomach. "Why did you two have to ruin everything? My life was perfect and you ruined it. Why did my life have to change just for you? Why did I even have to get pregnant? I just wish this was a nightmare I could wake up from." He hugged a pillow to his body and fell asleep crying.

Wolf stood on the other side of the door shocked at everything he had just heard. Falcon was essentially yelling at the babies saying they ruined his life. "Oh my god, I hope he doesn't really feel that way. Please don't let him feel that way." He looked at the door as tears streamed down his cheeks. He tried to open the door but found Falcon had locked it, he walked back to the living room and sat on the couch. He put his head in his hands and cried whole-heartedly.

Wolf woke to the sound of someone knocking on the door; he looked at his watch and saw it was noon. He cursed under his breath. He opened the door and was bombarded by hugs and kissed from his nieces. "Hey Jaz, hi Arya. Where is your mom hiding huh?" He picked both girls up and hugged them. He smiled at Marie as she walked around the corner. "How is everyone feeling today?" he set the girls back on the floor and they hugged his legs. "Girls go meet me in the living room; I need to talk to your mom for a minute." He smiled as Jaz and Arya ran into the living room.

Marie leaned forward and hugged him. "What is wrong Wolf? You seem upset." She rubbed his back gently to show her support.

"Falcon is mad at me. I woke up this morning and found him cleaning. I was worried about him overworking himself and you know most of the things he uses can be harmful to the babies if he isn't careful. So I told him no more cleaning unless he let me help him and he just started yelling at me saying he gave up enough for the babies and that giving up another thing was just too much. He locked himself in our room over 3 hours ago. When I tried to go into our room earlier, I heard him talking to Crimson and Blade and it sounded like he regretted everything that had to do with me. I really need your help Marie." He looked depressed and vulnerable.

"Take the girls and play in the backyard. I will talk to Falcon, maybe he will understand when he knows you did the same stupid things to me." Wolf just nodded and went to find the girls. Marie walked towards the bedroom and knocked on the door. "Falcon open up, it's Marie. We need to talk." She stood there for 5 minutes before Falcon opened the door. She saw his eyes were puffy from crying. "Falcon, I know you are mad at my brother, but can you please come out to the living room and talk to me. I had Wolf take the girls to the back yard. Please come talk to me." Falcon nodded and walked ahead of her. "Falcon I know my brother is very controlling, but he is worried about you. You know that right?" Falcon nodded. "Then why haven't you said a word yet?"

"Marie what do you want me to say that I am gonna jump into his arms and cry while I forgive him? Well don't hold your breath I don't plan on it any time soon. I have had enough Marie. He has gone too far, I just wish I wasn't pregnant anymore. I wonder if all the choices I made were right. I don't need to be with someone who controls my life. I want some freedom, but he has me locked in a cage." He looked at her like he was gonna cry again. "I can understand setting some limits, but he is taking it too far. I am wondering if keeping the babies was a good idea."

Marie pulled Falcon close and rubbed his back. "Falcon, I can understand trust me; he acted the same way when I was pregnant with my daughters. It is in his nature to be that way. I know it feels like he is controlling you, but he doesn't want anything to happen to you or the babies. Falcon please just give him another chance; don't do something you will regret ok." He nodded while he grabbed a tissue. "I know he is being a pain in the butt now, but look at how he treats Jasmine and Arya. He is gonna treat Crimson and Blade the same way."

He nodded again. "Marie will you kids be alright with the fact that I am pregnant? I mean are they gonna get freaked out or something?" He looked out the sliding glass door at Wolf as he played with his nieces. "I mean are they gonna think I am weird just cause I have two people growing inside me?"

"Falcon relax, they seem eager to meet you and just as eager to know they are gonna have cousins." She stood up and held her hand out to him. "Now why don't you come meet them before you lose your nerve?" He took her hand and let her help him stand. She led him outside and laughed when Jasmine and Arya ran to them. Wolf just looked at her with happiness. She understood and nodded. "Jaz, Arya I want you to meet your uncle Falcon." Falcon waved nervously.

"Is it true that you're gonna have a baby uncle Falcon?" Jaz asked with enthusiasm as her sister nodded.

"Yeah, I am having two babies. A boy and a girl." He smiled at the twins when they gasped in wonder. "I am happy to meet you both. And from what everyone tells me you would be Jasmine and you would be Arya right?" Both girls nodded before hugging him. He laughed as he hugged them back.

"Can you play with us uncle Falcon?" Wolf looked like he was gonna say something but Marie glared at him and he just waited to see what would happen.

"Sure, but we have to be careful ok?" Both girls nodded and he let them lead him towards the center of the yard. They started to play hide and seek.

"Marie, what is wrong with you? He shouldn't be playing like that. He could get hurt or something could happen to my children. Your kids like to play rough, now stop this." Wolf said with authority.

"Don't yell at me little brother. You are lucky I am not slapping you right now. You are tearing that man apart. He actually regrets getting pregnant because it took away his freedom. You are being more 'protective' of him then you were of me. You are lucky Falcon is even still here, from what I heard he is regretting everything. A person is supposed to be happy when they are pregnant and Falcon is far from happy. Now you had better cool it or I will make your life hell and you know I can." Marie said with anger in her voice.

Wolf looked at her for a minute before he looked at Falcon to see him playing with Jasmine and Arya. "Fine, but if anything happens to them I don't know what I will do. I almost lost them once Marie." Marie gasped with surprise. "We never told you but you remember Tomas right?" She nodded. "He attacked Falcon; I almost lost all three of them. I got home to find Tomas shoving Falcon into the wall intending to kill the babies and Falcon."
"Oh my god, I had no idea. Well that is a reason to be over protective, but you still need to cut back some. He really is regretting everything; you need to talk to him. I got him to give you another chance. Promise me that you will talk to him later."

"Yeah I will. I am gonna go make lunch, your kids still like my sandwiches?" She nodded and he walked away.

Marie watched Falcon and the kids play for a while before walking over to them. "Alright girls we need to give uncle Falcon a break. We don't want him to get tired do we?" Both girls said no at the same time. "Okay, well how about we go sit over there and we can talk to uncle Falcon ok?" Falcon smiled when they said ok mommy in unison. They ran to the lawn chairs and sat down. Falcon sat on the hammock so the rocking would calm the babies. It seemed they were having fun too while their mommy played.

"Uncle Falcon what is it like being pregnant?" Jasmine said with a smile. "I mean do you like it?"

Falcon looked at Marie before answering. "Well it is very rewarding. I mean I love the feeling of them moving inside me. It kinda makes it all worth it. There are moments when I wonder if I had a chance to change things would I and I always answer no. I would not change anything at all. I love it and I love my children." He smiled as he put his hand over his stomach when the babies moved.

"What are you doing uncle Falcon?" Arya asked as she looked at him with wonder.

"The babies are moving and the only way to soothe them is put my hand over my stomach. They seem to love attention."

"Can I feel uncle Falcon?" Jaz said with enthusiasm. Falcon nodded and had her stand next to him. He put her hand over his stomach so she could feel the babies. "You need to feel this Arya, it's so cool." Before Arya could even ask, he nodded and she stood next to him with her hand next to her sister's. Both girls looked at each other with wonder.
Wolf walked out to see his nieces feeling his children moving. He looked at Falcon and smiled. Falcon didn't notice him; he was too busy talking to the girls. He walked over and set the plate of food on the makeshift table before sitting behind Falcon on the hammock and wrapping his arms around him. "Hey girls, are you having fun?" they nodded as the sat back by their mom.

"We felt the babies move Uncle Wolf. It was so cool. Was it .like that when mom was pregnant with us?" Wolf nodded and smiled at Marie.

"You two were a real busy pair. Your mom was always saying you were moving. Nothing could make you stop." Both girls looked at their mom and she nodded. "I am surprised you don't have more energy usually. With the way you acted when you were inside your mom you should be jumping off the walls." Both girls started to laugh. "Do you see this love? They think I am funny, my own nieces are laughing at me. Maybe I should make them laugh for another reason." Both girls started laughing harder when he chased them around the yard as he tickled them.

At 5:00, Marie got the girls things together preparing to leave. "Do we have to go mommy? We are having fun, we like uncle Falcon mommy." Falcon could swear he felt his heart in his throat after they said that.

"Don't worry you can come back another time and we will have more fun." Falcon said with a smile. Both girls ran to him and hugged him. "But for now you really need to go home ok? Your uncle and I are going out to dinner tonight." He hugged both girls tightly before releasing them. They ran to Wolf and hugged him next before leaving with Marie. Falcon turned to Wolf and kissed him with enough passion that Wolf was stunned for a second when released. "Wolf I am sorry about how I acted, I know you are worried about me and our children. But I need to have some fun, there isn't much you can do while you're pregnant and I want to do what I can while I can. Trust me I am just as worried as you are, they are inside me Wolf. Please try to understand, and I was hoping we could go out to dinner; the babies do need t he culture."

Wolf let out a hearty laugh before grabbing Falcon. "I would go anywhere with you Falcon. And I will try to be more understanding. But like I told Marie you mean everything to me and I don't want to lose any of you." He kissed Wolf as he hugged him close. "So did you have fun with Jaz and Arya?"

"Yeah and it gave me a few ideas about our twins. I just wonder if they will be as energetic. We will need to learn how to calm them if they get rambunctious like their dad." Falcon looked at Wolf with a mischievous grin. "You do know that Crimson and Blade act just like you right?"

Chapter 13

Falcon sat on the couch while Wolf was in the backyard mowing the grass. In a few hours, they were going to Tammy's house for the party. He heard the doorbell. "Come in." He yelled. It was hot that day and he was too lazy to get up. He sat up when he heard Jaz and Arya giggling. The girls ran to him and hugged him. "Hey girls how are you feeling?" They sat on the couch, one on each side of him. He looked up when he heard Marie. "Hey Marie. I hope you brought bathing suits for everyone; it is a pool party after all."

"Where is my brother hiding? What did you do, lock him in the basement?" Falcon and the girls laughed.

"No, he is mowing the lawn in the back. He should be in soon; he said it was too nice a day to pass up lawn work. Power to him I say, I think it is too hot to do anything." He leaned back on the couch and smiled at his nieces. He still felt weird calling them that. They leaned on him with their head on his shoulders. "Alright what did you two do or what do you want. Why the lovey-dovey routine?"

"We didn't do and don't want anything. It just has been a while since we saw you. We missed you uncle Falcon." He smiled when Wolf walked in and saw them like that.

"Hey honey, I think I have 2 daughters, they are hanging all over me."

"Really? that means that they get to live here and do all the housework for me since they are my daughters as well." Wolf smiled mischievously at his sister and husband. "Well, first I will have them clean the attic and then the basement, and maybe even the garage."

"Uncle Wolf, we are mommy's daughters. We just missed uncle Falcon. He is fun and he likes to play." Jaz said as Arya hugged Falcon hoping he would save her from having to clean anything.

"Well, I won't be able to play that much anymore. As I get closer to when the babies are born, I need to slow down on what I do. We will still play, but not as often as we did." Both girls nodded saying they understood. "But we can play in the pool today at my friend's house. But you have to remember to be careful ok?" They nodded again. "Well, Wolf and I are ready, are you ready to go Marie or do you want to relax here a little first?"

"No, we are good. We have everything in the car. We are ready when you are." Falcon nodded and stood up.

"Well then I say let's go." He grabbed his bag of spare clothes and walked outside. The girls ran out behind him.

"Mommy, can we ride with uncle Falcon?" Marie looked at him and he nodded it was ok as long as it was ok with her. "Please mommy, it will be fun."

"Yeah go ahead, but you have to listen to everything your uncles say until we get to the party. Do you two understand me?" Both girls nodded and ran to Falcon's car. "Put on your seatbelts!" She yelled before they closed their doors. "Are you sure you will be ok with them, they can be a real handful in the car."

"We'll be fine Marie, I need the practice anyway. What better way to practice than with those two? We will be fine; you remember the way to Tammy's house right?" She nodded. "Good, so I will see you again in a few minutes and you can have your kids back. And I promise they won't have a scratch on them." He turned and walked to his car and got into the passenger seat. "Put your seatbelts on girls." He smiled when he heard the seatbelts click into their locks. He put his own seatbelt on pulling it across his big stomach. "Ready?" Both girls nodded. "Lead the way Wolf."

They arrived at Tammy's 10 minutes later. The girls waited for Wolf to park and turn off the car before unbuckling their seat belts. He heard them groan when they noticed the doors wouldn't open. "Well the child locks work love. Hold on girls we will let you out in a minute." He got out and opened Arya's door while Wolf opened Jaz's. "Stay close your mom isn't here yet so you still listen to us." Jaz held Falcon's hand and Wolf held Arya's as they led both girls to the house. Falcon knocked on the door and waited for Tammy to open it.

"Hey Wolf, Falcon. Who are these two cuties?" she smiled at Jaz and Arya.

"They are Marie's daughters. I have Arya and Falcon has Jaz, short for Jasmine. Marie should be along in a minute, she was not that far behind us. Girls this is my good friend Tammy." Falcon and Wolf looked as Marie pulled her car into the driveway. "That would be Marie now, why don't you girls go to the backyard with uncle Falcon ok?" Arya grabbed Falcon's other hand and he led them to the backyard.

"Oh my god Tammy! Look how much you have grown, welcome home." Marie said as she hugged Tammy. "What happened to the little girl who used to help me prank my brother?"

"Don't worry Marie, she is still here. Your daughters are beautiful, they look just like you."

"Thanks Tammy." Wolf followed both women as the continued to catch up. He was glad when he finally reached the backyard. He walked over to Falcon who was sitting on a lawn chair while he watched the twins playing with a football they all used to play with.

He sat behind Falcon and wrapped his arms around his waist. "Hey everything ok?" He smiled when Falcon leaned back and laid partially on him. "Don't tell me you are tired already."

"I'm not tired, I just like being in your arms. It is comfortable here, and it is where I feel safest." Falcon smiled as Wolf kissed his head. "Wolf, do you think that Crimson and Blade will be like Jaz and Arya?"

"I don't know really, but I can say if they are we are in for trouble. It took 6 months before they would sleep through the night. I remember it was hell. Marie was always telling me that she and Henry could not get any sleep. No matter what they tried, the girls would not sleep through the night. I truly hope Crimson and Blade are not like that. I might just go insane of they are." He said as he rubbed Falcon's stomach.

"You might want to be fitted for your straight jacket now. According to the book the way a baby acts inside it's mother reflects how it will act once born. We will both be in straight jackets by the end of the first week; Crimson and Blade are always moving. And we know already that nothing soothes them. I think it will be even worse when they are teens. Think about how we both acted and you will see why I am afraid of the teen years." He laughed when he felt Wolf tense up. "I just hope we will survive without and injuries. We may even need padded cells." He smiled when Tammy walked over to them.

"Hey boys, Falcon you better not be tired already or I will kick you into the pool. I am serious; you are supposed to be the active one out of all of us. You were always willing to run like a maniac in gym class and you were always running laps around us."

"Don't blame me, blame my children. They make me tire easier, but I am not tired right now. I just love being in Wolf's arms. I promise Tammy, I haven't done anything that would make me tired yet. Now get your panties out of their knot and relax a little, people change, you are true evidence of that. Sit down, enjoy the day."

"Wolf, are you sure this is Falcon. The real Falcon would have thrown me into the pool for what I said." Tammy smiled when Falcon glared at her. "Well it's true; the real Falcon would have thrown me in the pool by now. Actually, he did once for picking on his boots. Please tell me you don't still have the boots."

"Hey you can pick on me but not my boots Tammy." The chairs were on the edge of the pool. Falcon put his foot on the frame of Tammy's chair and pushed. Tammy fell into the pool with a loud splash. "Still think I am not Falcon Tammy?" She glared up at him when she came up for air.

"You are really lucky you are pregnant or I would be kicking your ass for that." She climbed out the pool and stood above him. "That was so uncalled for. I didn't say anything to deserve that." She looked at Wolf when he started to laugh. "Shut it Wolf, I remember a few things about you too." Wolf stopped immediately.

"Relax Tammy; I was just proving I am Falcon. You said I was acting weird, so I had to prove who I was. You do look like the old Tammy now though." Tammy walked off to get changed into her bathing suit so her clothes could dry. "I think Tammy is mad at me Wolf. Maybe she is too mature for us now."

Both men gasped as a bucket of water was dumped over them. "What happened Falcon? I think you got a little wet." She started to laugh. "I figured you would at sometime throw me into the pool, so I came prepared. Since I can't push you into the pool while you're pregnant, I improvised. What is a party without the old pranks we used to pull?"

Falcon sat forward and pushed his hair out of his face. He smiled at Tammy. "Ok now that we have proved we are still our old selves let's get this party started. That was good Tammy. I figured something would happen. I have spare clothes in the car. I guess we all know each other too well even after all these years. How long has it been now? seven years right, well we still know each other after that longs means we are and used to be good friends." He hugged Tammy and kissed her cheek. "I am gonna put my swim trunks on. I will be right back."

"Are you mad at me Wolf? You were not part of the plan, but an innocent bystander. It is not my fault he clings to you life a babe to it's mother." Tammy smiled innocently as Wolf stood. She started to back away but Wolf caught her. He walked to the side of the pool at the deep end and threw her in. she swam to the surface and saw he was gone. She looked around and saw him with Jaz and Arya. "Sourpuss!" she climbed out the pool again and walked into the house. She ran into Falcon because she wasn't paying attention. He caught her as she started to fall. "Falcon I am so sorry are you ok?"

"I am fine, what happened to make you so out of it?" He helped her stand again. "Usually you were the safety patrol. What's wrong?" He led her to the couch and had her sit next to him. "Talk to me Tammy, what is wrong?"

"It's nothing, I was just thinking." Falcon looked at her wanting her to say what was bothering her. She sighed before looking at him. "It's just that all of you have happy lives. Everyone but me got married and has or soon will have children. I am like the fifth wheel. Marie is married and has two beautiful daughters. You and Wolf are married and expecting a boy and a girl. I am just plain old Tammy who has nothing." She looked out the window and Wolf and Marie playing with the girls.

"Tammy, you have us all. One day you will find the right person and you will have kids. It happens at a different period of time for everyone. You just need to look in places you never thought to look before. Do you know Falcon and I were only dating for 6 months when we learned I was pregnant? We only got married last month on our 1-year anniversary. But we have known each other since we were all in school together. At first, I thought my feelings for him were not placed correctly so I ignored them. It took seven years for me to tell him how I felt; I was just lucky enough that he felt the same way. You will find the person for you Tammy. Just pay close attention ok?"

She nodded and hugged him. "Good, we better get back out there before they think we ran away to Mexico together." Tammy laughed as they stood. She walked with Falcon out to the pool and found the girls swimming with Marie and Wolf. "Hey got room for a pregnant man and a crazy woman?" everyone laughed as Tammy and Falcon got in. Falcon sighed as he got into the water past his waist. "Ok, I really need to start using the pool at home. This feels great; all the weight from the babies is taken away. I can't feel it anymore, but I can still feel them trying to kick me to death." He laughed as he swam to Wolf. "Oh Wolf, I totally forgot how it feels to not be pregnant. I feel like I only weigh like I did 6 months ago. And it really is helping my back. I am really gonna be using the pool often at home. I think even the babies love it, they are snoozing. When I was getting in the pool, they started to kick. After a few minutes of being in the water, they went to sleep. I love it. This is definitely gonna be part of the routine till I go into labor."

"I am glad you are feeling better babe. When you go for your swims I will gladly join you." Wolf hugged Falcon and they just floated together. Jaz swam over to them and jumped onto Wolf's back. "Jaz, what are you doing> do I look like a dolphin to you?"

"Yes, now giddy up flipper." Falcon laughed as he floated with his head above the water. "Come on uncle Wolf, take me for a spin around the pool`, just like you used to." She started to giggle as he swam around with her on his back.

Arya swam over to Falcon. "Hey Arya, are you sure you can be out this far without your mom?" She nodded. "I am pretty sure your mom would get mad at us both if anything happened to you."

"Mom is too protective of us. We are not stupid or anything. And anything that is fun she doesn't want us to do." Arya said with a frown.

'I used to think that same thing when I was her age' Falcon thought to himself. "She just cares about you Arya. You and your sister mean everything to her. She went through a lot for you and she doesn't want anything bad to happen to you. One day when you're older, you will act the same way. Trust me; I used to be like you and now that I am gonna have kids I understand why my mom was so protective." Falcon looked over as his phone rang. "Tammy can you answer that for me?" She nodded. "We better get back to shore Arya. Lead the way I will follow you." Arya nodded and began to swim toward everyone else. He looked at Tammy when she held the phone out to him. "Who is it?"

"Your mom, she sounds nervous." She handed the phone to him and walked over to the grill.

"Hey mom, what is going on?" he sat on the stairs leading into the pool. "Yeah sure, no problem. Okay, I will bye." He climbed out the pool and walked to the table. "I will be right back. There is something I need to do." He turned and walked rather waddled to the car. He turned when Wolf grabbed his arm stopping him. "I will be right back Wolf, I promise. There is just something I need to do alone, and then I will come right back ok. Please just trust me." Wolf nodded and hugged him before letting him go. "Thank you for understanding, I will be right back." He walked to the car and readjusted the seat before starting it and driving away.

Chapter 15

"What are you doing here?" He immediately moved over to the girls and put himself in front of them to protect them. "I told you to stay away from me and my family. Are you that stupid that you can't follow orders?" Wolf understood immediately and ushered Jaz and Arya to their mother. He came back to Falcon and stood next to him. Falcon looked at him without turning his gaze from the person. "Wolf, meet my father Zacarias." He looked back at his dad. "How did you find me Zacarias?"

Zacarias had a look of anger on his face. "It is not that hard to find that car. It is the only one in the state." He looked at Wolf. "Let me guess, you are the father of the bastard children growing in my son right? I should have known. Who are the little girls you were protecting? Daughters from a previous marriage?" His voice was slurred and his breath smelled of beer. "I should have made Althea kill you when she told me about you."

Wolf looked at Marie and saw her on her phone nodding. He knew already she had called the police. He saw Jaz and Arya in the house with Tammy. "DO NOT talk about my children that way. Falcon was right, you are and asshole. I thought you were told to stay away from us. Now this is your only chance, you will leave now or I will make you regret coming here." Wolf led Falcon out of the pool towards the house. He left Falcon with Marie. "Make up your mind now."

"I am not going anywhere, you can't do anything to me. I have a right to be around my son. As his father I have a right to be near him." He walked toward Falcon and Wolf stepped in front of him. "Move child, I want to see my son not you."

"You have no right to see your son Zacarias. You lost that right when you left his mother when she was pregnant. You no longer have any rights where my husband is concerned." He smiled when he heard the police sirens as the cars got closer. Zacarias looked towards the sound with fear. "I gave you the chance to leave Zacarias, but you decided to stay. The good thing about my job, I know how to distract you while I waited for the police my sister called. Never mess with a lawyer Zacarias. Hope you enjoy your stay in the county jail and by tomorrow morning we will have a restraining order on you." He smiled as David cuffed Zacarias. "We need to stop meeting like this David."

"Yeah, who is this bum?" David looked at the man and back at Wolf.

"That is Zacarias, he is Falcon's father. Earlier he saw Falcon and Falcon told him to stay away. He showed up here a few minutes before we called. I will stop by later to fill out a restraining order against him. Right now I want to get back to my husband, he is pretty shaken up." He watched David put Zacarias in the squad car before walking back to Falcon and Marie. "How are you feeling babe?"

"Like I want to shove his head through a wall. Now you see why I was upset when I came back. I cannot believe he followed me here. I just want to kill him, not saying I will but I want to. Again he had the nerve to pick on my children. I am glad you send me over here or I would have punched him. I have had enough, why do I attract crazy people?" He sighed when Wolf sat behind him and pulled him against his chest. "I know one thing, he is stupid. Did you hear Marie? He thinks Arya and Jaz are Wolf's daughters from a previous marriage." The three of them burst out laughing. "Marie I cannot believe you would do something like that." He laughed again as Wolf put his hand over his stomach. Falcon put his hand over Wolf's. "Thanks for defending us honey." He sighed as he leaned into Wolf more.

Arya and Jaz ran out and hugged Falcon after they made sure he was alright. The rest of the day went without trouble. As the sky darkened Marie hugged Falcon as Wolf carried the girls to the car. They had fallen asleep in the patio chairs by the pool. Falcon stood and walked into the house as he started to feel cold through his pants and long sleeved shirt. Tammy walked in and looked at him. "Why aren't you still outside, I know how much you love to look at the sky."

"You are right, but I was starting to feel cold. Normally I would still be out there but I have to think about Crimson and Blade now too. But once they are born I will be outside as often as possible." He rubbed his stomach lovingly as he leaned back on the leather couch. "You did a real job at fixing up this house Tammy. I remember how it was when your parents moved out, this place looked like shit. But you made it look like the beautiful Victorian house it is."
"Thanks Falcon, and I can really say you have done good with your life too. I noticed your house is close to the old fort."

"Actually it is on the property. Just walk back to the tree line and you will see it. We brought the hammock up to the house cause the babies like the rocking motion of it." Falcon looked up when Wolf walked back into the house. "Hey babe, I am guessing the girls didn't even wake up did they?" He shook his head no as he sat next to Falcon. "I am guessing your sister is happy we tired them out then."

"Yeah, what are Crimson and Blade doing?" He put his hand over Falcon's stomach. "Wow, they are out too. I guess our big day gave them a work out too huh?" Falcon nodded and leaned his head on Wolf's shoulder. He smiled at Tammy when he heard Falcon snoring quietly a few seconds later. "Poor guy, I am surprised he stayed awake this long. Usually he takes a nap around five. I guess he was enjoying himself too much to be tired until now."

"Well from what we learned in health so many decades ago, the baby or babies in his case can make the mother tire easier. I half expected him to pass out on the patio with Marie's kids. But he came in here saying he felt cold, maybe that was all that was keeping him awake. If you want you two can stay here tonight, that way you won't have to wake him to get him out to the car."

"Thanks for the offer, but I have to get home. And don't worry I can get him home without waking him, I have done it before. I will just need you to help me a little." He stood up and picked up Falcon cradling him to his chest. "Can you grab the bags and follow me please. I am gonna need you to open the car door." Once he had Falcon in the passenger seat and buckled in her closed the door and threw the bags in the trunk. He turned back to Tammy. "Thanks for the help today and thanks for making it an enjoyable day even though we had unexpected visitors." He hugged her before getting in the car, starting it, and driving away.

~~~

Wolf woke the next morning in bed in his nightclothes. He was covered in a blanket, he opened his eyes and looked for Wolf. He went downstairs and saw a note on the table.
Falcon,
I left early and went into town to fill out the restraining order. After that I am going to work, I will be back later to tonight. If you need anything call me.
-Wolf
He rummaged through the fridge until he got everything he needed to make bacon and an omelet. He had just turned off the stove and set his plate on the table when the phone rang. He looked at the caller id and didn't recognize the number so he let the machine get it. 'Falcon this is your mother, pick up the phone.' He turned off the answering machine after he picked up the phone. "Hey mom, what's going on and where are you calling from? Oh ok, I will see you soon mom. Love you too bye." He sat back down to his breakfast as he waited for his mom to show up.

After waiting for an hour he laid on the couch to watch TV. He must have fallen asleep cause he woke to Althea gently shaking him. He rubbed his eyes and sat up. "What took you so long to get here? You called over three hours ago."

"Sorry about that, something came up. I wanted to talk to you about yesterday. I heard that Zac followed you to Tammy's house after you left. And before you ask Wolf is not the one who told me, Tammy and Marie told me when they called this morning. They seemed really worried about you. I wanted to make sure you were ok. He didn't hurt you did he?" She sat across from Falcon on the coffee table.

"Not physically. He had the nerve to ask Wolf if he was the father of the bastard children growing in his son. I wanted to rip his throat out, but Wolf had me sit with Marie by the house while he talked to him. Wolf filled out a restraining order this morning. Zac even thought Arya and Jaz were Wolf's daughters from another marriage because we were protecting them. He was drunk, we could smell the beer on his breath and his words were slurred. I can say one thing, he is a real idiot."

"I am so sorry that happened baby. I wish I was there so I could have kicked his butt. Are you sure, you're ok?" she looked at him with worry and wonder.

He hugged reassuringly. "Mom, I am fine really. Crimson and Blade are trying to annoy me but I am fine. Do you really think Wolf would let anything happen to me or his children?" He grinned at her. "Relax already mom, the cops took Zac away, he never had a chance to hurt me or the babies. Wolf kept him distracted while we waited for the cops to show up."

"Fine, but I am sorry you had to meet him Falcon. I knew it was a bad idea, but I didn't want him to hunt you down either so I went with you coming to us. I hope you never have to see him again honey. I wish things had been better when you met him. I could tell that it was not everything you hoped it would be, but at least you got it over with. If we are lucky, you will never have to worry about him again. But from now on if anything does happen I better hear it from you instead of your friends, is that understood young man."

"Yeah mom, but one problem, I am not a young man anymore. I haven't been a young man since these two," He rubbed his stomach. "Were conceived. But I doubt you want to hear that huh?" he smiled when his mom looked grossed out. "But anyway that is not the point. If anything happens, I will remember to tell you. I would have told you yesterday but we all were having too much fun and I fell asleep on Tammy's couch. I woke up this morning in my bed with a note on Wolf's pillow telling me he left early."

"Well I am glad you had fun even though things turned bad for a minute." She stood and hugged him. "I have to go honey. And Falcon you will always be my young man no matter what." She kissed him cheek before leaving. Falcon laid back on the couch rubbing his stomach attempting to soothe Crimson and Blade.

~~

Wolf came home to find Falcon on the couch rubbing his stomach. He walked up to him silently not wanting to disturb Falcon. He smiled when he heard Falcon start to talk to the babies. He leaned against the stairs and just listened. "Why don't you kids ever calm down huh? Are you trying to torture me? I just wanted to apologize to both of you. A few days ago, I said something I regret. You may not understand me but I said I didn't want to be pregnant with you anymore. I learned it was not how I really felt. I am glad that I am pregnant with both of you. You two mean everything to me, no matter what I say I am proud you are in my life." He wiped a tear from his eye. "My little angels right? What would I do without you two and your daddy?"

"You would be bored and depressed." Falcon sat up and looked toward the stairs. "Hey relax, it's only me. I didn't mean to scare you." Wolf walked to him and kissed him. "How are you feeling today?" He sat next to Falcon on the couch and started to rub his stomach. "I fixed the problem with your dad, the restraining order is final. Zac won't be a problem anymore. Have you been having a good day?"

"Yeah, it has been ok, mom came over today. She thinks it is her fault that Zac followed me. I don't understand why she would think that either, it had nothing to do with her. He is just an asshole that needs to learn his lesson." He leaned into Wolf with a sigh of contentment.

Falcon woke to a surprise, there was a trail of plastic Easter eggs on the floor. He got out of bed and followed them. The trail ended by the kitchen door; he pushed it open and laughed when he saw one Easter  basket sitting on the table. He walked to the basket and looked at the note inside. 

Falcon,
So we have reached Easter as a family. I know that Crimson and Blade won't remember their first Easter, but I want to make it one we will remember. Make sure you wear something nice tonight; we're going out to dinner. 
-Love Wolf

Falcon reread the note three more times before looking at the contents of the basket. He smiled when he saw the basket was full of chocolate treats. He rubbed his stomach gently as his children stretched inside him. "Happy Easter you two. It seems your daddy has a plan for us tonight." He took a chocolate bunny out of the basket and bit off it's ear. "Hopefully you two will be good so daddy and I can have some fun." He sighed when his phone rang.

He picked it up on the forth ring, "Hello?" There was no answer. "Hello? Is anyone there?" Again no answer; he hung up the phone and sat on the couch with his chocolate bunny. He ate more of it and looked up when he heard the doorbell. He walked to the door and looked through the peephole. He smiled when he saw Tammy on the other side. He opened the door and hugged Tammy with a smile. "Hey Tammy, happy Easter." They walked into the living room and sat on the couch. "So how are you doing?" He began to attack his bunny again.

"Good, I have a reason for my visit you know. I got a date tonight. A few weeks ago I met this man at the store and we kinda hit it off. We have been dating ever since. I need some advice, this guy means a lot to me." Tammy ran a hand through her head. 

Falcon was shocked. "Are you seriously coming to a pregnant man for advice?" Tammy nodded. "Ok, what do you want to know?"

"Well, i thing the guy may really be the one for me. I am hoping he will propose or something. Is there anyway to see if he feels the same way as I do for him?" 

"Well it may sound stupid, but just ask him. The worst thing he can do is say no. That is what I did with Wolf; I just kissed him and asked him how it made him feel. We've been together ever since." He rubbed his stomach lovingly. 

Tammy watched him with envy. "Yeah, I guess you're right. So new topic, how are things with the twins? And how does it feel being seven months pregnant?" 

"Things could be better; they were fine but my last prenatal exam didn't go so well." Tammy looked concerned. "I had an amnio done and things were ok til we were doing the amnio for Crimson; she kicked the needle! There was a slight bend in the needle and i had a bruise that lasted a week." 

"Oh wow! That proves one thing; Crimson is just like you. I hope wolf can handle a mini version of you running around. I wonder what made Crimson attack the needle anyway. Well all I know is she's a fighter like you. You may need to get advice from your mom on how to handle her." Falcon nodded. "I can't wait to see how it goes." 

*~*~

Falcon decided he was gonna visit Wolf at work. He had his mom drive him. He got to the waiting for Wolf's office, he smiled at the secretary. "Hey Kathy, is Wolf busy?" She shook her head and smiled. "Can I go see him?" She nodded and he walked away. He didn't even knock when he got to the pocket doors. 

Wolf looked up from the pile of papers when he heard the doors open. "Falcon! Hi honey." He sat up and walked to Falcon. He hugged Falcon gently and kissed his cheek. He closed the door and led Falcon to his chair. "Sit down. So, why did you decide to visit me today?" 

"Well Crimson and Blade missed their daddy." Wolf sat on the desk across from Falcon. "So what do you have planned for tonight?" Wolf shook his head. "You're cruel you know." He leaned forward and kissed Wolf. "Thanks for the Easter basket full of chocolate. The twins and I loved it."

"I'm glad you liked it, I hoped you would. It was hard enough to keep hidden in the house. Usually you can smell chocolate a mile away." Both men laughed. Falcon grabbed Wolf's hands and put them over his stomach. "It is still a wonderful feeling when I feel them moving." Wolf jumped when his intercom buzzed. "Yes Kathy?"

"Your 11:00 AM just called and canceled. I rescheduled them for 12:00 Thursday."

"Thanks Kathy." He looked at Falcon. "Since I have two hours til my next appointment do you want to go out?" Falcon smiled. "Alright come on." They walked into the waiting room together. "Kathy, I'm going out; I will be back for my 12:30 appointment." Kathy nodded. "So babe where do you want to go?" Falcon shrugged. "Well, how about we go to that burger place you love so much?" Falcon's face lit up. "Alright, to the burger place it is."

Falcon almost jumped out of the car when Wolf parked. He got out of the car and tripped over a rock. Wolf grabbed him before he fell. "Thanks honey, you know how much the twins love the burgers here. They are affecting my judgment and brain." Wolf laughed and wrapped an arm around Falcon to steady him. "Thanks honey." 

Falcon waited at a table outside while Wolf got their orders. Wolf walked out five minutes later with a tray. He sat across from Falcon and smiled. "So Falcon, how is your first Easter as an Anderson going?" Falcon gave a thumbs up since his mouth was full of food; Wolf laughed. "You know i love you right?" Falcon nodded. "Good, I was afraid I wasn't telling you enough." 

Falcon set his hamburger on the tray. "You tell me very often. You tell me everyday, and I love you just as much." He rubbed his stomach as the babies moved. "And I know Crimson and Blade love you too. They just went into a kicking frenzy."

"Are you sure they aren't reacting to the two hamburgers you just inhaled?" Falcon scowled at him. "Relax, I'm kidding. I'm trying to make you laugh." Falcon attacked a third burger. "How can you eat so much and not barf?" Falcon shrugged. "Well, i could never do that. You surprise me more and more each day."

*~*~

Wolf dropped Falcon off at the house before heading back to work. Falcon sat on the couch with his favorite book. He turned on his stereo and laid back on the couch with a sigh. He started to read and his eyes started to droop shut. He set the book on the coffee table. "You two always make me tired." They kicked in response. "Well, i am gonna take a nap, so try to keep the movement amount to a minimum ok?" The babies stretched and he felt them relax. "Thank you." 

He bolted upright when he hear his phone ring. He looked around and noticed it was dark out. "Hello?" He rubbed his head. "Hey babe, what is going on?" He smiled when the twins moved. "Are you serious? But I wanted to go out tonight. Yeah, alright. I love you too, bye." He set his phone on the table with a sigh. He rubbed his stomach as he stared into the darkness. "Well kids, we aren't going out tonight. Daddy has some lawyer things to do so it's just the three of us." He had just noticed the stereo was still playing his Weird Al CD.

He turned on the lights before walking to the stereo and turning it off. He went into the kitchen to forage. He looked at the contents of the fridge and sighed. "How about we order a pizza? Is that ok with you two?" They kicked in response and he smiled. He called Pizza Palace and ordered a large sausage pie. He charged it to Wolf's credit card. When the doorbell rang he got up to collect his dinner. He took the pizza and went to the jacuzzi tub in the tub in the bathroom.

He filled the tub with water and turned on the massaging bubbles the babies love so much. He stripped and slowly slid into the tub. He sighed as the water went up to his chest covering his stomach completely. For a while he just laid back as the bubbles massaged his stress away. When his stomach growled he attacked the pizza. He was halfway through the pie when the babies kicked. "What is it kids, usually you sleep when I'm in the jacuzzi tub. Why the sudden change?" He sighed. "I must be an idiot, I'm trying to have a conversation with two unborn babies." He leaned back in the tub when the babies relaxed. "I wonder what what your daddy is doing right now." He fell asleep in the tub. 

When Wolf finally got home it was 11:30 PM. He crept into the house hoping not to wake Falcon. He crept into their room and saw the bed was still made. He saw light under the door of the adjoining bathroom. He crept to the room and opened the door. He sighed when he saw Falcon sleeping in the tub. "Oh Falcon." He walked into the room and watched Falcon sleep. He shook Falcon's shoulder gently. "Falcon, baby wake up. We need to get you to bed." Falcon murmured in his sleep and turned onto his side. Wolf unplugged the stopper for the tub and waited for the water to drain. Once it did he wrapped Falcon in a towel and carried him to bed. He laid Falcon on the bed and covered him before getting into bed himself.

*~*~

Wolf woke at seven and went to make breakfast. He was downstairs making bacon and eggs when he heard Falcon behind him. "Hey Wolf. When did you get home last night and how did I get into bed?" He heard Falcon pull out a chair and sit down. 

He set their breakfast on the table and sat down. "I got home at 11:30. I went upstairs to go to to bed. I noticed you weren't in it and saw light coming from the bathroom. I found you passed out in the jacuzzi tub. I tried to wake you but failed. So I pulled the stopper in the tub and and carried you to bed. I'm really sorry we didn't get to go out last night. One of my cases got re-evaluated and we didn't finish til 11:00." Falcon just nodded. "Honey, I'm really sorry. I wish I could make it up to you."

"I'll have to check my schedule first and see if I can give you and appointment. I don't want to ruin my precious schedule." Falcon finished his breakfast and went out to the hammock. He laid on it with a sigh, he smiled when he felt the babies kicking. "Good morning little ones. You must've slept pretty well last night since I actually slept." He rubbed he stomach gently and smiled when the twins moved to his touch. They seemed to follow his hand. 

Wolf walked out and sat in the chair by Falcon. "Falcon, I said I'm sorry. I tried to get out of it but I couldn't. Please babe, I didn't mean for it to happen, it couldn't be changed." Falcon grabbed his book and started to read. "Falcon come on, won't you talk to me?" Wolf sighed when Falcon ignored him again. He got up and walked into the house. 

He was about to go into his office when the doorbell rang. He walked to the door and opened it to find a crying Tammy. "Hey, what's the matter?" He led Tammy to the couch and sat with her. "Tammy, what happened to make you like you this?" She tried to tell him but was hysterical. "Tammy relax before you freak out!" She started to take deep breaths to calm herself. He looked at Falcon when he walked in. "Any idea why she's upset?"

"Yeah." He sat on her other side. "Tammy did he dump you?" She shook her head. "Is he married?" She looked at him with and angry scowl. "He proposed?" She nodded. "OH MY GOD! Please tell me you said yes." She nodded again and he hugged her. "Congrats, I'm so happy for you." She held out her hand showing the ring. "It's beautiful! I'm so happy for you. What is his name?" 

"His name is Jacob Johnson. He's a-"

"A doctor at Warren Hospital?" Tammy looked surprised. "I went to college with him. How did you meet him?" 

"I ran into him at the cafe in town. We ordered the same thing and the rest is gooey history. We've been going out for 2 months now." She laughed. How is it I get engaged to one of your college buddies?" Falcon shrugged. "Does this mean he will pass your test?" 

"Maybe, any chance he can come for a visit tomorrow?" She nodded. "Cool, bring him over around noon ok?" 

"Alright. So how was Easter dinner?" She looked between both men.

"It would've been good if my husband was there." She looked confused. "It was just me, the twins, a pizza, and the jacuzzi tub. He didn't come home til 11:30 cause a case was being re-evaluated." Falcon put his hand to his head. "Listen, I'm getting a headache. I'm gonna lie down." Falcon stood and walked to their room.

Tammy watched Falcon leave before looking at Wolf. "What is wrong with you? You got him all excited about dinner and then cut it off?!? Are you stupid? He was so excited, I know, i saw him yesterday afternoon. He couldn't wait for dinner with you and you went to a case re-evaluation! You must be an idiot!" She got up and left the house with a slam of the door. 

*~*~

Falcon woke to the smell of something cooking in the kitchen. He walked downstairs and found Wolf cooking pork chops and his famous garlic mashed potatoes. He walked to Wolf and put his arm around him. "Dinner smells great, what is the occasion?" 

Wolf turned off the stove and turned in Falcon's arms. "This is to make up for last night. I really didn't mean to cancel our Easter dinner. I tried to tell them I had to get home to my pregnant husband, but they thought I was joking. So to make it up to you I'm cooking your favs." He turned and finished making the mashed potatoes. Falcon kissed him before sitting down; Wolf set Falcon's plate in front of him before sitting with his own.

"Falcon looked at his plate with enthusiasm. "This looks great babe, I'm sorry about how I acted earlier, i was suffering from mood swings." Wolf nodded. "I know that you need to work for me and the babies. If not for you we would be poor as hell." 

"Falcon, stop apologizing, I should've called you sooner than 1/2 hour before I was supposed to come home. I knew I messed up when I came home and found you asleep in the tub. You looked so peaceful, while I carried you to bed the twins yelled at me, they were kicking like crazy. I'm surprised that didn't wake you."

Chapter 19Falcon sat in his room as his mom yelled at him. She found out he escaped last night and was yelling at him for it. "Falcon what do I do with you? Why can't you ever stay out of trouble? It seems like you're a magnet for trouble, according to you it always finds you."

"Yeah, yeah; well I didn't get into trouble last night. I sat in the park. Do you possibly want to know what time I got there and how many people I talked to?" Falcon sighed and laid back on his bed. He pulled his cigs out and lit one. Althea gasped at him. "Is there a problem?"

"I thought I told you to quit smoking. Do you want to be a dead beat like your dad?" Falcon shrugged. "If you keep it up you'll be just like him, it that what you want?" when Falcon didn't reply she walked out closing the door behind her. 

Later that night Falcon walked out again. He was surprised when he saw Wolf sitting on his bench. "What are you doing back here? Did Joey chase you again?" Wolf shook his head. "Then why did you come here?"

"I didn't get to thank you properly last night. I was hoping you would show up tonight. I want to pay you back for what you did for me. I was kinda hoping that you would let me help you out." Wolf stood and walked over to Falcon. He stood in front of him nervously. "Is there anything I can do to thank you?"

"Actually there is something." He looked down at his hand. "With these stitches in my hand I can't really write anything. Maybe you can help me write my assignments. I'll do it; I just would need you to write it for me." Wolf nodded. "Cool, if you can meet me here around 4 tomorrow I'll take you to my house ok?" Wolf nodded. "Great, I'll see you tomorrow then." They parted and went their separate ways. 

~*~*

At 4 the next day Falcon walked to the park and smiled when he saw Wolf waiting for him. "Hey you showed up." Wolf stood and smiled at him. "I want to thank you ahead of time for this. And I should warn you that my mom may be surprised to see you. She thinks I came out here to get in a fight. I'm kinda famous for fighting people." 

"So what, people can change you know. Who would think the nerd and the bully are hanging out?" Falcon looked at Wolf with disbelief. "Yeah I'm the nerd, that is part of the reason people chase me." They walked to Falcon's house together. Althea met them at the door, her mouth gaped open in surprise. 

"Mom close your mouth, you don't want to catch flies. This is my friend Wolf, he's gonna help me with my homework. We'll be in my room." Falcon walked away, Wolf said nothing but followed him. "That was my mom Althea." Wolf looked around with surprise; he figured Falcon's room would look like a garbage dump but everything was neat and in it's place. "You can sit at the desk if you want." Falcon walked to the window and sat on the window seat. 

Wolf pulled out the desk chair and sat down. Falcon pulled out a cigarette and lit it. "Alright, what do you want to start on?" He noticed the cigarette. "I don't care if you smoke, but can you open the window?" Falcon nodded and pushed open the window. "Maybe you want to ruin your lungs, but I want to keep mine in perfect condition." Falcon nodded and blew the smoke out the window. "Alright, how about we start with math?" Falcon nodded and pulled out his math book. He handed his notebook to Wolf. Wolf pulled a pen out of his bag and they got started.

At 5:30 Falcon escorted Wolf outside. "Thank you so much for helping me, can we meet again tomorrow?" Wolf nodded and started to walk home. "And Wolf…" Wolf turned and looked at him. "Maybe one day we can hang out." Wolf nodded again. "Alright bye and thanks again." Over the next few weeks Falcon and Wolf met in the park and walked back to Falcon's house to work on their assignments. 

One day they met in the park and Falcon had the bandages removed; his hand was healed. "Hey Falcon, I'm glad to see you, I was kinda worried when you weren't in school today, but I'm guessing you were getting your stitches removed." Falcon nodded. "Well I have everything you missed in school today if you want to go back to your house and work on it."

"Sure, and you know Wolf, I hope we can still get together after today. I can write again, but I would still love to work with you." Wolf nodded. "So cool, has anyone bothered you lately?" Wolf shook his head. "Good, I'm glad to hear it. It seems people leave you alone since you hang out with me." 

"Yeah, but that means nothing to me. I'm just glad to have a friend like you Falcon. Who would guess that the nerd and the bully could hang out together?" Falcon laughed. "Yeah I know, sounds corny right?" Falcon shook his head. "Well I guess not, but it's definitely different." 

Falcon walked into the house. "Mom I'm back! Wolf is here too!" Althea walked out and smiled. "Mom we're going upstairs to work on homework. Wolf brought me the assignments." Althea nodded and watched them go upstairs. Falcon sat in the window seat and Wolf at the desk. "You know Wolf, I need to thank you. Ever since I've met you I kinda changed. I don't get into anymore fights and I don't act out anymore. I don't smoke as much either; I want to thank you for having faith in me I guess." He looked out the window so Wolf wouldn't see the tears in his eyes. 

Wolf stood and put a hand on falcons shoulder. "Like I told you two weeks ago, people can change when things work out right." They got to work on their assignments as Marilyn Mason played on the stereo.

~*~*

Falcon smiled when Wolf talked in his sleep, it sounded like he was talking to the babies. "I think your daddy is dreaming about you two." He rubbed his stomach gently. "So know you know a little about me and daddy huh? I know you won't remember any of this, but it's a story I needed to tell." He smiled at Wolf before cuddling next to him and going to sleep.

He woke the next morning to Wolf rubbing his stomach. Wolf looked at him and smiled. "Good morning. How are you feeling?" Falcon shrugged. "Too early to know?" Falcon nodded and smiled. "The kids and I were having a talk about what is to come. I figured they should know what is gonna happen in 1 ½ months. I wanted them to be prepared. Falcon beckoned him close and Wolf complied. 

Falcon kissed Wolf passionately as he explored Wolf's back with his finger tips. "I need you now Wolf." Wolf smiled and removed his t-shirt and boxers. He pulled Falcon's boxers off and set them with his own clothes. Falcon moaned as Wolf rubbed his stomach gently, his body felt like it was melting. "Oh Wolf, I don't know how much torture I can take." Wolf laughed and moved on to little Falcon. Falcon gasped at the sensation. "Oh God." He rolled onto his side so Wolf could enter him.

"No." Wolf laid on his back. "Ride me Falcon, ride me hard." Falcon had a are you sure? look on his face. "Do it, do it now." Falcon straddled Wolf and slowly lowered himself onto Wolf's hips. Wolf moaned and Falcon lifted his weight off him. Wolf put his hand on Falcon's hips. "Stop, you're not too heavy, just stay." Wolf smiled at him and he impaled himself on Wolf. Wolf moaned sensually. "Oh Falcon, that's right, perfect." Falcon started to raise and lower his hips in a slow but fierce rhythm.

Falcon laughed when he sat on Wolf's hips. He took Wolf's hands and rested them on his belly. "They're kicking, can you feel?" Wolf nodded and started to rub Falcon's belly. "They know who their daddy is; they also know when to torture me." He laughed as Wolf rubbed his stomach which made the twins kick harder. "Stop it Wolf, you're annoying them." Wolf complied and Falcon continued to ride him. Wolf moaned when he came inside Falcon, a few seconds later Falcon came as well.

Wolf laughed at the look on Falcon's face. "Well how about a nice bath to calm the babies and clean up some?" Falcon nodded from his perch on Wolf's waist. "What's on your mind babe, you look lost in thought."

"That may be cause I am lost in thought." Wolf looked at him in wonder. "I'm thinking about our first kiss and the first time we had sex. I've been thinking about our past a lot lately. Last night before I went to sleep I told the twins about after our first meeting, they seemed very attentive." Both men sat there still connected intimately.

"Oh really, you told them how I changed you?" Falcon nodded. "How much did you tell them?" he leaned forward and kissed Falcon's extended stomach. He laid back down and smiled at Falcon. 

"I got to when my hand healed. Later I will tell them about when I knew I was in love with you and about my approach to find out if you loved me." Wolf laughed at the memory. "Why are you laughing? It is a memory I cherish with my whole heart."

"Sorry babe, I was remembering my reaction to your approach. How about we tell them that story during our bath?" Falcon nodded and climbed off Wolf. He laid next to him and sighed. "Feel better now?" Falcon nodded with a smile. "Well I am gonna go start the bath you stay here." Falcon nodded and rubbed his stomach. 

~*~*

Wolf and Falcon sat in their familiar places in Falcon's room. Falcon had just turned 24 a few months ago and they were back from college. "So Wolf, how has life been treating you?" Wolf shrugged. "Are you a lawyer yet?" Wolf shook his head. "Well then what is going on? We haven't seen each other since we were 18. There must be something to tell me." Wolf shrugged yet again. Falcon stood, went to Wolf, kissed him, pulled away, and looked him in the eye. "Wolf the entire time I was gone all I thought about was you. Every time I thought of home you came to mind. I feel safe with you Wolf. Now before you say anything, I want you to know I haven't fought anyone since I left for college. The last time I smoked was two years ago, and I love you." 

Wolf looked at Falcon with wonder, he tilted his head to the right as if in deep thought. "You just kissed me." Falcon smiled as he nodded. "Wait…you love me?" Falcon nodded again. "Oh wow, this is something." He put his hands on Falcon's cheeks and pulled him close for another kiss. He returned Falcon's kiss with passion and lust. "Well I've news for you; I love you too."

~*~*

Wolf and Falcon were in the tub with Falcon leaning against Wolf's chest. "Yeah, me being the nerd I am was dumbfounded, but it is love. If it wasn't love we wouldn't be married and awaiting the birth of our son and daughter. I can say we went through some rough patches, but we can't be separated by anyone or anything, we are a team." Wolf kissed Falcon's head. 

"Yeah, a winning team." He leaned back against Wolf more and rested his head on Wolf's shoulder. "Remember that no matter what I say I love you so much. I want you to know you're my #1 man," he laughed when Blade kicked. "Relax Blade, I love you too." He rubbed his stomach gently. "You both mean so much to me and your dad, you both will always be my little angels."

~*~*

Falcon and Wolf laid on the hammock in the backyard watching the stars. "Do you remember the first night I moved in?" Wolf sighed. "We came out here and watched the stars like we are now. Wolf tightened his hold on Falcon who laid on top of him; his hands migrated to Falcon's stomach. "When I first moved in we had separate rooms and normal jobs. Now you're a lawyer and I've no job. I just write; out of boredom I might add."

"Oh baby, do you really think you have no job? You're doing your job right now." Falcon turned his head and looked at Wolf with a raised eyebrow. "The job you don't seem to notice is to care for our son and daughter. For now your job is to make sure they're safe and have a chance at life, your job is to keep me in line and make sure I remember to love you." He kissed Falcon's head.

Falcon sat up and looked at Wolf with anger. "So you're saying my job is to be an incubator?!" he stood with effort, the force he used to get up flipped the hammock leaving Wolf lying on the ground. "I cannot believe you would say something like that!" he walked into the house with a hand over his stomach; he walked to his old room which was converted into a guest room. He closed the door and locked it before sitting on the bed with tears streaming down his face. He looked around the room and remembered the day he moved in. 

~*~*

Falcon pulled his beat up station wagon into the driveway. He remembered when he helped Wolf paint the house he was now gonna call home. He leaned into the backseat and grabbed a small bag containing essentials, he grabbed his laptop bag off the passenger seat, and got out of the car. He walked onto the porch and knocked on the door. Wolf opened it and smiled at him. "You could've just walked in seeing as you live here now."

Falcon shrugged. "Yeah I guess, but mom always told me it is safer to knock and truthfully I don't feel like I live here yet; I still feel like a visitor in my boyfriends house." He laughed nervously, Wolf kissed his cheek and pulled him inside. "You know Wolf, we can kiss without fear of people ridiculing us." They both smiled wickedly, Falcon set his things down and kissed Wolf on the lips. Wolf groaned and they walked to the couch, they sat together still kissing. Falcon pushed away when Wolf's hand migrated to his pants. "Not yet, can we just stick with kissing for now?"

Wolf nodded with knowing eyes. "Sure, how about we get you moved into your room?" Falcon nodded and led the way to his car. It took an hour to get everything into Falcon's room. Wolf sat on Falcon's bed after carrying in the last box. "Did you pack the whole house?" he laughed when Falcon looked around and shrugged. "I think you did, but you forgot one thing." Falcon looked at him with confusion. "You forgot your mom, Althea." He laughed when Falcon threw a pillow at him.

"Oh shut up!" Falcon smiled at Wolf who had put his hands up in surrender. "This is everything I had in my room. Don't worry, if I fit it all in my old room it will all fit in here." Falcon sat next to Wolf and hugged him. "Thanks for letting me move in here; it's wonderful."

"Don't thank me til you taste my cooking. That is always the deal breaker." Falcon kissed him before standing to put things away. Wolf stood and put his arms around him. "I'm gonna start dinner, you want anything specific?" Falcon shook his head. "Ok, I'll get you when it's ready." Falcon nodded and started to put his clothes in the closet. When Wolf knocked on the door he was surprised to find the room looked like someone had lived in it for years. "First: wow. Second: dinner's ready. The room looks great, looks just like your old room at your mom's."

Falcon got off the bed and smiled. "Yeah, all that's missing is the window seat." They went to the kitchen hand in hand. After dinner they went outside to sit on the patio. Wolf sat in one chair, Falcon in another. "You know, this is the reason I had the window seat. I love to look at the stars and wonder what's out there."

~*~*

Falcon's memory was cut short when someone knocked on the door. "Go away Wolf, I don't want to talk to you!" he threw a pillow at the door. The person walked away and he laid back on the bed. He laid there for 5 minutes before the knocking started again. At first he thought it was Wolf and was about to yell when he noticed the knock was softer this time. "Who is it?"

"Uncle Falcon, are you ok?" He recognized Arya's voice and smiled. He got up and opened the door; she smiled up at him. "I was getting worried, you've been in here a long time." Falcon looked at his watch and say it was 10:30, he had been in the guest room since 7. He ushered Arya in and sat with her on the bed. "Are you upset?"

He hugged her and kissed her forehead. "I'm not upset honey, just a little mad." Arya looked at him with the curiosity of a 6 year old. "Your uncle Wolf and I had a small argument, but I'll be ok. Thank you for worrying about me though; it was very kind of you." He hugged her again and held her close. "Where is your mom and sister?"

"In the living room with Uncle Wolf, they don't know I came to talk to you. They think I'm in the bathroom." Falcon laughed. "Can I stay in here with you?" she looked at him with her big green eyes. "Please Uncle Falcon; I'll be good, I promise."

Falcon nodded and laid back on the bed again. He smiled when Arya laid next to him. "You know kid, they'll get suspicious when you don't come back." She shrugged. "Don't really care huh?" Falcon yawned loudly. "Well Arya, I don't know about you, but I'm getting tired. How about we get some sleep ok?" she nodded and laid on her side next to him. He kissed her head before laying on his own side and dozing off.
