Chapter 3: Surprise!
"Mummy! Daddy! Wake up! Wake up!" ashley and Jane had bombarded their room and were jumping up and down on the bed trying to get their parents up so that they could have breakfast as a family and then go to school.
"we're up!" John said with a smile speaking for both of them even though Helen was sleeping still or looked to be still sleeping.
"Good now get dressed and meet s at breakfast please mummy and daddy?" Jane asked.
"Alright, now leave us so we can get dressed."
"alright daddy." Ashley said.
After the girls left John leaned down and started to kiss Helen's face all over and she finally woke up. "How is it that you can sleep through those two jumping on the bed practically yelling in your ear?" he asked when she was awake.
"Years of practice. And I slept better last night than I have in years.:"
"Well we have to be dressed and at breakfast acording to the girls."
"well then we should get up and get dressed then right?"
"If you want to get dressed." He said only half meaning it, and with that smile of his that she loved so much.
"I think we shall get dressed unless you wish to be bombarded again and yrlled at for not coming to breakfast."
"As the lady wishes,"
They both got dressed and headed down to breakfast. There their daughters were sitting at one side of the table and had seats for their mum and dad set across from them, they were ready for school which was a big surprise for Helen because she was used to having to force them to put on their clothes.
They both took their seats at the table and ate breakfast while Ashley and Jane just babbled the time they were done with breakfast it was time to take them to school. Ashley and Jane protested for a few minutes about how they didn't want to leave their daddy but in the end their mum won. So they got in the car and were off to school. They wanted their teacher to meet their long lost dad, he wasn't sure how he would explain why he left or why Helen had taken him back. Helen said "That might not be the best idea yet girls. We havent worked out a story to tell as to why he left, well one that doesn't make him seem like the worst father in history or me a fool to take him back." Those words hadn't come out exactly how she wanted them to but.. it got the point across. By no means was she trying to be mean or remind John of what he had done, in fact she was trying to find a way to make him sound like a good man, but still didn't know how.
"I agree girls, I would like to meet your teacher but first can we find a good story to tell her?"
"yes daddy." Ashley said.
"Sure." Answered Jane.
When they got back to the Sanctuary they found Will, Kate, Henry, and Biggie in Helen's office. When the team saw Magnus with Druitt and acting well friendly they were all thinking different things.
'Why is he here? Has she completely lost her mind? He's a serial killer! Around her kids! What if he goes all Jack the Ripper on them? For one who is always thinking whats best and what's not but this is most deffenetly a not! Why is she being nice to him? Why is she alowing him in here? Awwe their so cute together.' that was what was going through her teams minds.
"Why is he here?" asked big guy.
"Because I am allowing him to be, and yes he is safe to be here, he is no harm to anyone anymore."
"are you sure?" asked Will, still not believeing his eyes or ears after all the bad things he had heard about John Druitt.
"Yes, Will I'm sure." She said getting kind of aggitated about being asked if her judgment dealing with John was correct or not. She was going to kick them out when Kate said something that made her choke.
"Awwe you guys look cute together." Kate said.
"Pardon me?"
"I said you look cute together."
"Kate, don't ever refer to John and I as 'cute' again. Are we clear?"
"uhh.. ya sure." Clearly the boss didn't like being called cute. Note to self, don't call the boss cute.
"If you don't mind I would like to be left slone, so please go on with your lives and let me be alone."
"sure thing boss" said Kate.
"Sure doc."Said Henry as he left the room.
"sure Magnus," said will. And then he left as well.
Biggie just nodded and left.
Magnus was again alone with John. He was sitting on the couch looking forbidden but gorgeous, 'bad combo this will not end well if we stay here' she was thinking. But it was too late john was already getting up walking over to her desk pinning her and kissing her and she was returng the kiss even stronger than his. The next thing she knew his hands were going up the back of her shirt. It sent shivers down her back, she liked it, it was familure to her. She liked this moment with him, but then they heard footsteps comeing down the hall but they didn't really give a crap, so they kept kissing and John went to move a little bit to get more comfortable but Helen pulled him even more closer to her that was when they both fell off the desk they were sitting apon. They were on the floor laughing at the fact that they fell down. John haddnt removed his hands from her shirt so he decided to take the annoying thing off her. She smiled at him but then remembered the foot steps that they had heard a minute ago but it was too late to put her shirt back on and then she saw a creeped out Will staring at them blankly.
He quickly exited the room and ran down the hall almost running into Sasquatch.
John and Helen sat there on the floor laughing then all of a sudden Druitt Grabbed Helen by the arm and Teleported her to her room, where they played a little game of where they took each others clothes off and finished what they had started in the office. Helen particularly liked this and it made her sort of nervous to be feeling this good in so long. She had missed this too much and never wanted it to end even though she knew it would eventually end….she wanted this to last forever. Except when she glanced over at the clock she realized that it said 3:30 and her brain registered that it was time to pick up her daughters Jane and Ashley. "Oh crap! John, we have to get the girls…but (said sudectivly) we can continue this later if you'd like, because I sure know I would, love."
"as the lady wishes."
