This is my first five plus one fic

It was a warm spring day as Athos stood outside the modest little house he shared with Sylvie and their two children: three year old Raoul and four month old daughter Renee.

He had his three year old son standing in front of him holding the boy's hands in his keeping him steady as they walked the uneven ground.

"Papa, cat," Raoul pulled one of his hands from his father's grasp to point his finger directly ahead of them.

Athos looked up squinting against the sun's rays. It was indeed a small orange tabby. It stood several feet from them watching them as they watched it.

Athos realized before it was nearly too late his son slipped out of his other hand and started to rush forward. He picked up his pace and caught hold of Raoul swinging him up and into his arms. "Where do you think you were going, Raoul?" He asked gently.

"I wanna cat," the boy said simply.

Athos sighed inwardly. "Not today, son," he turned them both around and headed for the house.
