7/9/1997, Townley's Trailer Home...

The loud fussing, crying noise of two month old Baby Blake never seem to stay quiet long enough even if she was hungry or needing a diaper change. She was laid down on her back against her baby bouncer that was a decorative theme of colorful owls and flowers, Carter brought over in case she fallen asleep at her Uncle Michael's trailer home.

"Daddy!" Tracey whined. "Make her stop crying!"

Michael was in front of the sink making a formula based bottle for Blake, since Macey and Carter had to pick up Ethan from the daycare and do a couple of errands.

"Trace, she's a baby." Michael explained, while using spoonful of sensitive baby formula to place into a teal blue colored baby bottle. "She's supposed to be doing that, whether or not she wants attention or food, she'll keep doing that."

"Jimmy, stop! What are you doing?" Tracey questioned.

"You two, what are you doing now?" Michael questioned as he gotten irritated of hearing Tracey and Jimmy's bickering over Blake's crying.

Turning around from the sink while shaking the baby bottle full of formula, he looked to see Blake's hands reaching out as Tracey was trying to grab Blake's green soothie pacifier from out of Jimmy's hands.

"Both of you, stop fighting now!" Michael yelled.

Tracey and Jimmy looked at Michael as the four year old redhead dropped the pacifier onto the floor and Blake stop her crying as she started sniffling with tears running down her cheeks.

"You two, go somewhere else, like outside or to your rooms, but away from Blake." Michael said, placing the baby bottle on the floor before unbuckling Blake from her baby bouncer and taking her into his arms. "She's a sick baby and making her cry harder ain't gonna make her feel better."

As Tracey and Jimmy left, Michael was finally alone with Blake as she played with the small pocket of his jacket while she cooed in content. Michael chuckled softly, before picking up the baby bottle and sat down on the couch, placing the bottle's nipple into her small pink mouth.

"Sorry, Blakie Bear, your half siblings are always like this." Michael said, as Blake looked up at him with her aquamarine colored eyes. Her small hands were touching the neck of the bottle as they moved closer to Michael's index and middle finger.

"You with the sad eyes. Don't be discouraged. Oh I realize, it's hard to take courage. In a world full of people. You can lose sight of it all and the darkness, inside you makes you feel small." Michael sanged True Colors by Phil Collins to Baby Blake as he fed her, while the baby's aquamarine colored eyes were looking straight at his baby blue ones. "But I see your true colors. Shining through, I see your true colors and that's why I love you. So don't be afraid to let them show your true colors. True colors like are beautiful, like a rainbow…"

"There's my baby!"

When Michael heard that, he and Baby Blake jumped back into the couch as they heard the excited voice of Macey Rose. She didn't even bother to knock before coming in, because she knew that Tracey and Jimmy were outside playing in the front of Michael's trailer home.

So, she just invited herself in like Carter, Ethan, Brad and Trevor would.

"Hey, Macey…" Michael said, as Macey taken Blake into her arms, surprising the two month old baby once her half empty baby bottle was removed from her mouth and was still in Michael's left hand.

Blake started whining about it, before feeling the soft but wet loving kisses of her mother. Her cherry flavored lip balm was against her soft baby-like skin as she felt disgusted before she started crying uncontrollably, using her small hands to pushed Macey's chin away her face.

"Alright, that's enough." Michael said.

"She's my baby, I can do whatever I want…" Macey said, disagreeing before looking down at Blake who was covering her face with her small hands. "Cause she's my daughter."

"She's my daughter too, Marcelline." Michael told her.

"Are we really gonna start this again?" Macey questioned, before placing Blake into her Raspberry Garden baby bouncer and strapped her down in front of Michael who stuck his tongue out at her. Blake babbled softly while looking at her father, before Macey placed her green soothie pacifier into her mouth.

Hearing soft sucking noises, Michael and Macey watched as Blake went to sleep with her head leaning to her left.

"You must really think you're gonna be the father in her life, don't ya, Michael?" Macey questioned.

"I'm her real dad and you know it, Macey." Michael replied. "I will always be there in her life, if something happens to her."

"Oh yeah, well I wanna to know if this is true." Macey said, before placing her hands on her hips. "Is that bitchy wife of yours coming out of the slammer soon?"

"I don't want you to talk about my wife like that, Macey…" Michael said, pointing his finger at her. "She's the mother of my two kids and Blake counts as my kid too. And Carter told me something interesting about your little problem."

"Yeah, what about it?" Macey questioned.

"You have chronic schizophrenia and I'm afraid that you're probably gonna do something to my kid, whenever you're not on you meds." Michael explained. "And if that happens and if Ethan or Blake tells me that something's wrong, I'm gonna take Blake away from you and raise her for now on, like what a real father's supposed to be doing."

"You ain't gonna have any problems out of me, cause I have Carter to help me." Macey said, before smelling the pungent smell of Blake's diaper in front of her and Michael as they looked down. "And besides, you're such a forgetful father, since you don't know how to change your own kids." Macey said, while picking up the sleeping baby from her baby bouncer and started unbuttoned her grey and white heart zip up sleep and play, with the pink ribbed cuffs to reveal her diaper.

"I do know how to raise my own fucking kids, Macey!" Michael yelled.

"Oh, so now you're yelling and cussing in front of your own kid, huh?" Macey questioned, while placing Blake on the couch as she unstrapped her diaper, once the two month old started opening her eyes slightly. She ended up whining a little while kicking her legs around, trying to move Macey's hands out of her way. "Blakie, hold still for Mommy, would ya?"

"You don't even know what you're doing?" Michael questioned, before walking towards the hallway of the trailer home.

"God damn it, Michael Townley, I know what I'm doing! You're the father of three kids and I'm a mother of one and a half!" Macey shouted, while wiping Blake's bottom off with berry melon scented baby wipes, she'd left for Michael to have unless Blake was over there.

Michael returned with a brown stuffed bear in his right hand as he held it up in the air. When Blake's eyes widened and dazzled, she showed a toothless smile as Macey finished changing her diaper and zipped her up sleep and play.

"You see? She's love her teddy bear that her Daddy bought her when she was in the hospital, surviving for her life." Michael said, before placing the teddy bear into her arms as her small arms were trying to wrapped around it's neck.

"I almost forgotten about that." Macey said calmly, before smiling. "She loves that teddy bear just like that pink bunny rabbit, Carter gave to her." Then she picked up Blake and held her onto her right shoulder. "I'll take it with me." She said, referring to the brown stuffed teddy bear in Michael's hand and he gave it to her.

"Hey, it belongs to her, don't make her leave it here, ain't that right, baby girl?" Michael questioned, before looking at Blake who only cooed happily.

"My God, you and Blake are gonna be close." Macey said, before walking towards the door.

"Cause she loves me, Macey…" Michael said, as Macey turned the doorknob and stopped once she heard that. "That's what a father's supposed to do. Love their kids. When Blake grows, she'll know that I'm her dad."

"You will never fucking tell her! Or even Carter Grant, asshole!" Macey shouted, holding onto Blake tightly, before she started whining when her mother yelled at Michael. "Carter will be a better father to her and he'll never know what happened in the past!"

With that said, Macey left the trailer home and climbing into her car after placing Blake into her carseat.

Grant-Rose Trailer Home...

"Hey, Ladybug!" Carter said happily, taking Blake out of her carseat as she played with her brown teddy bear. "Did you have fun playing with Uncle Mikey and your cousins?" He questioned, after when Macey closed the driver's door to her car.

"Yeah, she did." Macey said with a smile before Ethan hugged his mother.

"Hi, Mommy!" Ethan greeted happily, before Macey turned to Carter who had a strange look on his face, after removing the teddy bear from Blake's grasp. Walking into the trailer home, Carter place the two month old baby into the bassinet changing table to have a better look.

"Carter?"

"Something ain't right about my Ladybug." Carter said.

Then Macey turned nervous as she watched Carter examining Blake's left hand. "What do you mean, baby?" She questioned.

"I never seen this one her before…" Carter said, pointed to the red dots on her left hand where her thumb is. "Is this a strawberry birthmark?"

"Let me see…" Macey walked towards him, as Carter move to let his fiancee have a look at her hand and it was definitely a strawberry birthmark. "Yeah, I believe that's one."

"I had a strawberry birthmark when I was small, but mines was on my shoulder." Carter explained. "How can it be on her hand?" He questioned, before looking at Macey with her brown eyes still staring at it.

"Well, maybe, my relatives have one on their hand." Macey suggested. "I mean I don't see one on Ethan… if he's yours."

"Of course, Ethan is my kid." Carter said, lifting Blake up into his arms. "He has his real mother's skin, that's the only thing he has from her. By the way, we have something to talk about…"

"What is it?" Macey questioned.

Carted moved closed towards Macey's left ear and whispered. "I'll talk about when Ethan's put to sleep…" Macey nodded, before walking towards the kitchen to prepare a delicious dinner make from scratch…

Later on that evening at the Grant-Rose trailer home, Ethan was placed into bed after watching cartoons. Carter had to carry his little man towards the bedroom where his son and daughter shared together, before turning off the TV and and lights, while heading towards the master bedroom to tell Macey the news.

"You… You can't be serious, Carter Josiah!" Macey shouted as she was surprised at what Carter said in front of her, while holding Baby Blake in her arms.

"Macey, I know she'll be returning soon to her kids and Mike, but Amanda has to be a part of Ladybug's life." Carter explained.

Macey looked down at the sleeping baby in her arms, with the left arm gripping tightly onto her "C" sterling silver necklace that Carter gave to her when Blake was born into their lives. "But that woman pushed me down, Carter. She caused me to have Blake early. And I nearly lost her! Did you forget about that?!" Macey questioned, hearing Blake snoring lightly.

"I remember that, but she's willing to try again once more and to be Ladybug's aunt." Carter replied. "Just give her one more chance, Marcelline."

"I don't know, Carter." Macey said before looking down at Baby Blake. "But if she's hits me or hurt our daughter in any way, I'm gonna hit her back, since she's nearly costed me and my baby's life."

"Deal."

I used Phil Collins' song True Colors, cause I love this version and even the Trolls Movie version, so I decided to use that to make more Michael Townley appropriate. It was sort of like a lullaby song that Michael was singing to her, just how Macey sings My Little One in Sweet and Deadly.

But I like True Colors better! You'll be probably seeing more of this song in some future chapters in this story and maybe in Sweet and Deadly.

You might have recongize that Amanda is not in the chappie, cause she was send to jail for causing Macey to almost lose her life and even Blake's. Now, she'll be return soon, but will she changed for Macey to be a aunt to Blake?
