The Morning After and Talking
A/N: Thank you for your continuous support with this story! I'm working on a new story to go with my new one.
Rain pitter-pattered against the rooftop of the Cabot household. This was the noise that Olivia awoke to the next morning. That and crying. She looked over to the still sleeping blond before disentangling their limbs. She carefully crawled out of bed, and padded into the kitchen. She grabbed four bottles of milk, and boiled some water, dropping the bottles in to heat for a few moments. She walked around the room, getting out bibs, highchairs, and various things in the living room. She set everything down before getting the bottles out of the water. She tested the milk on her arm, deeming it just right and walked into the baby's room. She walked over to the source of the crying, finding it to be baby Jayden. She lifted the baby up, and sat in the rocking chair with her, feeding her the bottle. She finished a few moments later, and after burping the baby, carried her out to the living room. She slipped the baby into a bouncer before heading back into the room. She lifted out little Jenna next. Doing the same routine, except putting this one into a swinger. She left into the room a third time to find that both Kayla and Kiara were awake. She sighed, and lifted both babies out, and fed them with minor difficulties. She slid them into a bouncer or swinger before walking into the guest room to wake up her sons. Her sons... she was so proud to say that.
An hour later, Nate and Luke were up, showered, and dressed. Olivia was making breakfast. When she finished, she snickered quietly. She began to get the babies into the room. It was not that hard. She sat the infants on the bed, and had Lucas and Nathan jump on the bed.
"Wakey wakey Ms. Alex!" they squealed. Two blue eyes shot open, and nimble fingers began their attack on the two boys. When she finally let up, she noticed Olivia smiling at her with the tray of warm food on it.
"Why, Ms. Benson," she said dragging the name out, "Did you make me breakfast?"
"Why, Ms. Cabot," Liv replied in the same tone, "I did. For everyone." Olivia set the tray of food on the bed, helping her children with their toast and eggs, before starting on waffles and eggs. Alex smiled at her happily before taking a sip of her wonderful coffee. Throughout the entire meal, Olivia and Alex would keep stealing glances at each other, thinking the other didn't notice.
Later that morning, Olivia and Alex were taking turns showering. Olivia went first before pulling on her clean clothes; black jeans and a black blouse. Alex in her black skirt, white shirt, and ice blue vest. Alex had been called in for an emergency hearing, and Olivia was needed for an interrogation of the accomplice to Johnny Baxter. There was only one problem...the kids. Time to call in a little back up...
In an apartment across town, a redhead and a blond were happily sleeping together when the phone decided to blast off in said redheads ear. She shot up, waking the blond.
"Novak," Casey said sleepily into the receiver. She listened for a few moments.
"Sure, we'll meet you there," she said before turning to the blond.
"That was Alex, she has a favor for us... watch the kids for her and Olivia," she said. Serena nodded.
"Finally got together?" she asked. Casey nodded. The two got up out of the warm bed, and began to get dressed.
Twenty minutes later, Casey and Serena were being instructed on what to do by the two mothers.
"We know!" they finally said in unison, pushing the couple out the door. The two looked at each other.
"We need to talk after work," Alex said softly, kissing Olivia good bye and climbing into her work car. Olivia nodded, and the two drove to work.
Around noon, the rain let up, and Serena was fixing lunch in the kitchen.
"Why can't I cook?" Casey had demanded. Serena snickered.
"Because last time I let you cook, you set the stove on fire... and you were making cereal!" she called out. Casey pouted, and sat on the floor, watching Nemo with the children and rocking Jenna back to sleep after her bottle and diaper change. Around half an hour later, Serena came back in with chicken noodle soup and ham sandwiches. Nathan and Lucas scrambled to the table from where they were playing. Luke looked up from his soup to find Kayla watching him.
"Baby want some?" he asked innocently. Serena chuckled.
"No Lucas, baby just thinks your cute," she said, smiling as the little boy blushed.
At the end of both of their work days, Alex and Olivia met at a small restaurant. They sat down to order.
"What do you want to talk about?" Olivia asked after their drink orders were taken. Alex gave her a soft smile to calm her nerves.
"Us," she said, noticing another nervous look pass over her Olivia's face.
"What about us?" came the reply.
"I like you... a lot. I have for a while," Alex said, avoiding the l-word. Olivia noticed this.
"I love you too Alex," she replied, kissing her over the table. Alex looked at her.
"How did you...?" she said, still dazed from the kiss. Olivia winked a little.
"I just knew."
Casey and Serena were running after Nate and Luke who were squealing, almost naked, and trying to avoid a bath. Finally, after twenty minutes, the Benson Boys were caught.
"No bath! No bath!" they said in unison. Serena and Casey carried them to the bathroom were there was a tub of bubble bath waiting for them. The babies were happily sleeping in their room... for the time being.
"If you take your bath like good boys, i'll let you help me with the brownies," Serena, all like a lawyer, compromised. The boys thought it over a few moments, and then nodded. They took their bath without any major water damage.
Olivia and Alex had finished their meals, and were getting ready to leave the resteraunt. After Olivia and Alex split the bill, they decided to meet up at Alex's house. A few moments later, the two sat quietly together on the front steps of the house.
"It's beautiful out here," the blond whispered. Olivia nodded.
"Almost as beautiful as you," she said, causing Alex to blush and kiss her cheek.
"Do you think this will work?" Olivia asked. Alex closed her eyes.
"I know it will," came the strong reply. Olivia smiled and stood up, offering her arm to her girlfriend. They walked inside, and almost busted out laughing. Casey and Serena were laying on the couch. Half a brownie was sticking out of Serena's mouth, and Casey had whipped cream all over her. It was too much, and the two collapsed on the floor roaring with laughter. This woke the two on the couch up.
"Go take a shower, and stay here the nigh," Alex said after finally calming down. The two glared at them and pouted, but finally walked off. Soon, moans were heard from the shower room, scarring our two girls for life.
"Damn, now I have to destroy that tub! It was my favorite too!" Alex whined. Olivia chuckled, and wrapped a strong arm around Alex, and continued to watch Charmed.
A/n: I hope you liked the chapter. Sorry for the delay. My computer is dead, and I need to get it fixed soon. I've been working from the library, but there's never enough time.
