Welcome back to meant to be guys. Okay guys this oneshot is request from my RP partner Kayleigh who I rp Henvy with, to add the child we came up with for Henry and Ivy, named Brendon. So I decided to do something fall inspired, since I am in that kind of mood right now lol.
I do not own OUAT or its characters just my imagination.
Chapter 4: All the little possibilities
Ivy stands at the stove, making her family breakfast; thinking about the last several months. It was now October; but back in April the little family moved to the small town of Storybrooke, Maine from Boston. Henry, her husband was a writer; so they decided to move away from the city, to help him write. The town was also where he grew up, Ivy was happy to move to his hometown for him. She had lucked out, that the towns top law firm was in need of a new partner, which Ivy was plenty willing to fill the spot. What they lucked out the most was their home. It was nice and close to the center of town, near the park (walking distance actually) and not far from her job and the school. The selling point: the fact from their bedroom, they could see the water. But then there was their surprise, their family was growing by four little feet. They already had a five year old son Brendon. But now, she is 17 weeks along with twins.
Ivy was taken from her thoughts hearing giggles from upstairs, she gave Henry the task of dressing Brendon that morning, since they would be spending a good part of the next several hours outside at the towns fall festival. As Ivy cooks, her free hand instinctually goes to her bump that was now slightly showing underneath the shirt she borrowed from Henry. Ivy turns in time to see her son come into the room. He's in jean pants, and a flannel shirt, Henry comes in a few seconds later wearing a similar outfit, holding a sweatshirt for both he and Brendon. Ivy grins "There are my favorite guys…"
"Mama, wook… me and daddy match" Brendon says proudly, pointing to himself and Henry.
Ivy squats down "I see, and you look very handsome too" she says, kissing his cheek, then looks up and gives Henry a wink.
Brendon blushes "Like daddy?"
"Just like daddy" Ivy nods, as she stands up, she then moves to Henry and kisses him "You did good."
Henry smiles "I tried to think how you would've dress him."
"Well, I say it worked" Ivy laughs "so I have breakfast ready. Pancakes, strawberries and grapes, and bacon. Chocolate milk for the little man, orange juice for us…"
"That sounds good" Henry smiles, pecking her lips "You sit down, I'll dish it up, alright?"
Ivy nods, she wanted to protest, but knew Henry would insist, and Brendon would agree with him. "Okay" she says, getting the drinks and having Brendon sit with her.
Once they are done, Ivy sets Brendon up in the living room with the Disney channel, while she showered and Henry cleaned up from breakfast. A half hour later Ivy comes down to find Henry sitting with Brendon watching a Halloween episode of one of his shows, she was dressed just like her guys; in jeans and a flannel, her usual clothes just barely fitting now with her bump.
"Are you boys ready?" Ivy asks, one hand going to her bump.
Henry turns around on the couch "Yep, we've seen this one huh bud?"
Brendon grins "Yep, we're ready mama. Babies ready too?" he asks, giving the bump a kiss.
Ivy smooths over his hair "Their excited to I think" she chuckles "put on your sweatshirts guys, I was hoping to walk…"
They both nod, and do as she says. Once outside, both parents take one of Brendon's hands, the boy grinning as they walk. Brendon points out the different Halloween decorations he sees as he walks, him declaring his favorite was a Frankenstein blowup down the street from their home. Brendon's eyes go wide when they reach town square where it is all set up, the mayor's office across the way. There was food stands and game booths; a tractor set up for hayrides, a pen with three pony's kids could ride, even a area for kids to get their face painted.
"What first Bren?" Henry asks.
Brendon grins looking around "Games?"
Ivy nods "Okay Bren, you lead the way."
Brendon walks ahead, as Henry and Ivy walk behind, saying hi to people. Brendon chooses a ring toss game. After two games he wins a pumpkin stuffed animal, it had arms and legs. Next they head to the ponies. Brendon happily giggles as he rides, Henry right beside him, and Ivy taking pictures and video of it. Leading to her thinking about once the twins where there.
Thinking about how, Henry could push the double stroller, while she walked beside the stroller, holding Brendon's hand, the twins babbling away up at Henry. She thinks about having one baby in her arms, and Brendon snuggling into her other side. The look of love coming from Henry as he would watch her with them… all things she couldn't wait for.
Ivy suddenly finds them approaching her "Hi baby, how was it?"
"It was cool mama" Brendon grins "can I get a pony?"
Henry and Ivy laugh "Sorry buddy, no ponies" Henry says gently.
"Awe nuts" Brendon says, snapping his fingers.
Next Ivy insisted on lunch, her and the twins where starving she claims. The family shares a pizza and some fries, all happy with the choice. After lunch the family plays a few more games, winning a couple more prizes. They take Brendon over to the kids craft area, making a picture that Ivy insists will be on the fridge for years to come. After another round of games, they decide to head home for a bit, to warm up and have dinner.
At five thirty, the family heads out again, this time with the new family van (it was bought after learning of the twins) which was holding chairs and blankets for later. They head over to the hayride, where they meet up with Henry's parents; Emma and Killian. They all go on the hayride together, pictures being taken of both couple with Brendon. After as the ride start, Brendon kneels looking over the side of the trailer, Henry keeping a arm around him to keep him safe; earning grins from both Emma and Ivy.
After the hayride, they said goodnight to Emma and Killian. Henry went to the car to get their stuff while Ivy got them popcorn and apple cider. The festival was showing 'It's the great pumpkin Charlie Brown'; they had a projector and deck heaters set up for the special event. They get themselves set up, two chairs and some blankets. Brendon cuddles with Henry in his camp chair wrapped in a blanket while they had the popcorn and cider, Ivy right next to them. Brendon smiles during the program, as it gets to Linus in the pumpkin patch near the end, he starts fighting to stay awake. Ivy notices, waving for Henry to pass him over. Ivy kisses his head, once secured in her arms. She makes sure he's cuddled close, and rubs his back gently; softly humming to him. By the time the credits roll, Brendon is fast asleep, the pair deciding it best to head home instead of staying for the movie being played next. Ivy holds him tight, carrying him to the van, while Henry carried the chairs to the car.
When they get home, Ivy changes him into his jammies Brendon slightly aware "You have fun buddy?"
Brendon nods, rubbing his eyes "fun…"
Ivy pulls the covers up and tucks him in, kissing his cheek "I love you baby."
"I wuv you to mama" Brendon says, as his eyes drift close.
Ivy smiles, giving him one last kiss; she starts walking out but stops in the doorway, turning to watch her son. Both her hands go to her stomach "Next year, you to get to join" she grins, smiling at all the possibilities of their future as a family.
