Chapter 1: Guns and Work
Jean was walking around the house trying to get his things for work, the only things he was missing was his belt and boots. "Riza have you seen my boots? I have two pairs and I can't find even one." He said.
"No, sorry." Riza was in the kitchen cooking some breakfast.
"Crap, I'm going to be late for work.' Jean started to look through the shoe basket again when Riza said: "Jean, I found your shoes. Both pairs." Jean came running into the kitchen only to find his twin boys, Max and Seth, wearing his boots.
"We ready for work." Max said.
"Boys you know you can't come to work with me." Jean said as he lifted the two boys out of the over sized boots, he then sat them down on the counter. "How about this Saturday me and you two go to the zoo, how's that sound?"
"Yay!" Both boys wrapped their arms around his neck.
"Here Jean." Riza placed Jean's navy blue mug and belt next to the boys. "You'll need them."
"Thanks Honey." jean slipped out of the boy's grasp and walked over to Riza, "Is it just me or are the angels singing?" he asked as he wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her in close to his body.
"Jean, I think it's just you. I just got out of bed, my hairs a mess, I'm wearing sweat pants and a tank top that has holes in it." Riza stated.
"I know." he said with a hint of lust in his voice.
"Go get ready for work." Riza said before she gave Jean a small kiss then pulled herself away from him. Jean smiled then grabbed his mug and belt before he walked into the living room.

"Look Seth," Max said pointing at Jean's holster that had his gun in it. "Can we play with it?"
"I don't know."
"I say yes." Max said as he walked over to it and tried to reach up and grab it but he was to short, "Seth help me."
Seth ran over to Max and tried to reach for the gun, his fingers just missed the end of it. "Lift me up." Seth said turning to look at Max.
"Okay." Max put his hands together and waited for Seth, Seth placed his left foot on Max's hands and pushed himself up, they've done this many times before when they were getting into the cookie jar.
"Got it." Seth said as he jumped onto the floor and handed Max the gun, Max took it then aimed it at everything in the house. No one knew they had it until Faith, their older sister, came walking by, talking on her sell phone.
"And she said that Nick-"
"Freeze!" Max shouted as he pointed the gun at her.
"Shut up you pest." Faith barked as she peeked down at the two small boys and spotted the gun in Max's hands, "Max! Give me that!" Faith demanded as she hung up her phone.
-----
Riza heard them yell;ing at each other then walked over to them to see what was wrong, "What's going-" That's when she spotted the gun and tore it away ffrom Max's hands. "Jean Havoc! Get in here!"
Jean peeked around the corner and spotted Riza holding Max and seth's hands in one hand and his gun in the other hand, he sighed then walked over to them.
"Jean they got your gun again! I told you to put it some where were they couldn't reach it!"
"I did."
"Then why do they have it?"
"How was I suppose to know that a two foot boy could reach my gun and holster on a peg that's almost five feet off the ground?"
"There's two of them." Riza barked.
"That only makes four feet."
"Their arms are a foot long and that peg is only 4 1/2 feet up." Riza stated.
"...." jean was going to say something but chose not to.
"Just go to work, You're going to be late." She said as she handed him the holster, "I'll see yu when you get home." She said as she stepped aside.
"You're mad again, are't you?" He asked as he puched some lose stands of hair out of her face.
"Yes, you leave your guns out like it was just us." she said as she folded her arms over her chest.
He sighed as a smile gre on his face, he wrapped his arms around her and lend over and whispered, "Do you want it to be just us again?" He asked.
"Go to work."
"Fine, I'll let you think about it. Bye." He gave her a kiss before going out to the car. Riza waved to him as the car went down the road.
"Mom."
Riza closed the door then looked over at Faith. "What?"
"You still have dad's gun." She stated as she looked at her new text-message.
Riza looked down at the gun in her hand and sighed. "Oops. Faith get Troy before you two miss your bus. Max and Seth you're coming with me."
"Yay, we go to work!" The twins cheered.
