This is a Sequel to Bat Baby. Sorry guys forgot to put the beta'd version into place here you go.
Chapter One
{Ranger Point of View}
The twin's names were Ricky and Andy. They were good boys but had their moments. I was finally able to move into the Master bedroom with my Babe. We got married about five months ago and I was happy. Lester was still living with us, he was in the middle room upstairs and the twins shared a room. They were identical except for the birth marks on their wrists. If you knew them you could tell them apart by their personalities. Andy was always hyper, like Steph. Ricky was quieter but still playful, he just didn't talk as much.
I was in my office with the door open. I stood to stretch out, I needed to talk to
Tank. That's when I heard it, a loud scream and then little feet running.
"Unky Les play." I laughed, that was Andy, he was so much like his mother, a natural loud mouth, and everyone just loved him. I watched as Ricky walked into my office, came to my chair and crawled up into my lap leaning back and looking up to me
"Daddy." He said.
I leaned down and kissed the top of his head as he nuzzled into me. Ricky normally played with his twin and a few others. He was shy, but I knew he would grow out of that as he got older and started school. Mom said that was how I was. Andy was more open to making friends and playing with anyone.
Lester came in with Andy in his arms. My Babe walked in with what looked like lunch. She walked over and kissed me, she kissed Ricky's head and got a smile from him. He was going to be a heart breaker. Actually I think they both are. I stood and set Ricky down on the couch next to Lester. I moved to a closet in my office and pulled out a rug. I placed the rug on the floor and then added the folding kids table with two chairs. Babe had gotten them so we could all have lunch together when I was stuck at work.
Babe came to where I was and sat down onto my lap, she handed me a sandwich. She took a bite of her own lunch.
"So did you get your FTA today?" I asked her
She was still a bit of a disaster magnet. Now that she keeps one of the guys with her it goes better. She made it clear to everyone only to step in when things are looking to dangerous.
She stretched on my lap as before taking a second bite. She glanced over at Lester where he was sitting down on the floor eating his own lunch with the boys. I shook my head.
"Yeah Lester was with me, we got Jessie Ericson who was a big bond."
I smiled and kissed her cheek. I looked at her. "Proud of you Babe."
She shot out of my lap in a heartbeat rushing to the bathroom I had in the office. I had it put in for when she and the kids visited. I made sure it was fully equipped with a changing table for the kids. I sat and listened. I was on my feet moving towards the bathroom when I heard babe start to puke.
"Lester get Bobby in here now."
I was by her side in a second and slid a wash cloth onto the back of her neck; luckily her hair was already up in a pony tail. In the hall I heard Lester telling Bobby to get here. Lester got the twins to finish eating by telling them if they ate it all he would get them a candy bar they could share.
I looked at Steph as I stroked her back. "Bobby is on his way Babe."
She leaned back against my chest and closed her eyes. When I was sure she was done, I slid my arms around her stomach, lifting her into my arms and carrying her to the couch in my office to lie down.
I noticed the twins and Lester were done with their lunch. Lester smirked at me. "Come on you two lets go while Uncle Bobby comes to play doctor with Mommy okay?"
{Stephanie Point of View}
I watched Ranger nod to Lester as he walked out with the twins. I trusted every man here with my kids. Sometimes I had to stop them from teaching the twins things they didn't need to learn until they were older.
"Ranger I am going to be okay I just ate something my stomach did not like."
Ranger made a face like this was not something we were going to discuss. Bobby walked in the first thing he did was stick the thermometer into my mouth. I grunted and glared, but I let Ranger have this. He worries about me and he loves me. I rolled my eyes as he smirked at me. When it beeped Bobby took it out looked at it.
"Little high but not a fever yet. Any other symptoms Bomber?"
I will admit there are still the occasional bombings but nothing like when I lived in Trenton. The nick name stuck with me though, I didn't mind it coming from one of my Merry Men. I froze and started to do some math in my head. I sat straight up and got dizzy.
"Oh hell, I think I am pregnant again."
Ranger looked shocked but slid his hands into mine. I could see him thinking for a few seconds. Then he said.
"Brown go to the store and buy a pregnancy test get a few different brands."
I saw Bobby pail and look at Ranger then he stood nodded and headed out. I had to laugh Bobby looked like he was about to pass out and keel over. Apparently he wasn't comfortable going to a drug store to buy pregnancy tests. I looked at Ranger.
"You know I could have gotten one and saved poor Bobby."
Ranger smirked as he leaned over and kissed me. I slid my arms around his neck, and he lifted me into his lap. I felt his fingers slide down my back as he kissed my neck softly. I rested my head against his neck and fell asleep in his arms.
{Lester's Point of View}
I brought Hector with me when I headed to the park with the twins; sometimes it is much easier with a second person along with these two little demons. I watched as Hector pushed Ricky on the swings that kid loves swings. The women at the park were giving us strange looks. I guess it was weird to see two guys at the park with the little kids. I was sitting on the edge of the sand box with Andy. I had no clue what he was babbling about, so I just nodded my head at him encouraging him to continue.
"Unky Les momma sick?"
I smiled, the boys are good kids and they love their parents. They had great parents too. A few kids had come to play in the sandbox with Andy, I reached over ruffled his hair
"Mommy's tummy may be sick but she's going to be okay. Uncle Bobby will take good care of her."
That seemed to relax him some. He turned and started playing with the other kids. Andy was outgoing and great with other kids. Ricky stuck to the people he knew mostly his brother and Tank and Lula's daughter Lily. She was about a year younger than him but he liked to sit watching her put toys on her belly. I signaled Hector to bring Ricky over. Hector set Ricky down next to Andy in the sand, he looked unsure what to do. Andy shoved a shovel into his hand and started to dig. They had that ESP thing going on, like Tank and Ranger had but more. I think it was because they were twins.
Hector and I stood and walked to sit on a nearby bench. Hector looked to me speaking in Spanish.
"He is shy but he will get better with kids. Stephanie said she was thinking about putting them in to a day care. Next year they will be going to be to preschool, and she wants Ricky to get more comfortable with other kids."
I looked at Hector. She had mentioned that to me and Ranger. I knew it would be good for Ranger as well; he was over protective of the boys. Having them go to daycare with other kids would help him to let go a little. They would only go for half a day anyway because Beautiful only works for a half day.
A thunder clap hit about our heads and Andy was instantly in my arms. I saw Ricky looking a little frantic as Hector walked over softly lifted him into his arms. Then it started to rain hard. Andy squealed, buried his head into my neck as the second clap of thunder came down. Ricky, safe in Hectors arms, was clapping his hand like this was fun. I laughed as we got the boys in the car.
I called Ranger as we were leaving. "We are leaving the park the boys got soaked." Andy's cries could be heard in the background. "Thunder at the park scared him. Hector is sitting in the middle between them. You want me to bring them back to Rangeman or keep them at the house."
I was told to keep them at the house and Ranger hung up. We pulled into the garage at the house. I slid Andy out of his car seat and into my arms. He whimpered softly into my neck when he heard the thunder again. I stroked his back as he held onto me. He's never liked thunder.
"Why don't we go in get some dry cloths on then we can do something fun."
I got a little nod into my chest. It surprised me how easily we had all accepted the twins into our lives. Most of us were ex-military or ex-gang, like Hector. We all became Uncles when Beautiful introduced us to them and now they are the center of our Rangerman family.
