The usual quiet Monday morning was long forgotten, Peter Bishop stood in jeans and a shirt cooking breakfast in the kitchen. Chaos in the form of Olivia getting ready for work, Walter babbling in the living room, the baby crying in the nursery and the dog barking, filled the Bishop residence.

Whoever said parenthood was great needed to rethink their philosophy in Peter's opinion. "Liv, get the baby."

Olivia appeared at the end of the kitchen stairs with their nine month old daughter, who was busy babbling in baby talk to her mother.

"I have her, where is…"

"Here." They turned to see their three oldest children sitting down at the kitchen table ready for breakfast. Their oldest, the unexpected daughter, looked at them. "Grandpa is trying to talk to Keller, he isn't listening."

"That's because Keller is a dog," Peter put pancakes and bacon on the table, "eat up, you have school in an hour."


Olivia went after Walter and the eldest Bishop joined them, looking at all four of his grandchildren, three girls and a boy. "Are my grandchildren coming with us to Massive Dynamic?"

"Emma and Dunham are going to school as is Olive, only Lucy is coming with us." Olivia looked at her father-in-law, "they have school Walter." Her phone rang and she answered it quickly, "Bishop? No sir, we'll be there as soon as I take the kids to school…yes sir." She hung up, "we have a case but Broyles said to take our time, the body isn't going anywhere."

Peter chuckled, "the guy has become softer in the last few years."

"He has two children Peter, he knows how to deal with…" she looked over and found her oldest spinning her cup with her telekinesis. "Olive Carla Bishop stop that before you get an extra hour of ability exercises."

Peter laughed, he knew Olivia still detested the fact he named their daughter after her. It was only because she was so much like her mother. All were named after people of significance in their lives or the lives of their parents.


Olive Carla Bishop after her mother and Carla Warren, the assistant that died in the lab fire that sent Walter to St. Claire's, Carla was now seven and growing like a weed. She remembered everything from her time in the womb, which should not have been possible but like Walter had said 'the rules of pregnancy are out the window with Cortexiphan positive embryos and fetuses' and it was true.

Their only son was five, Dunham Charlie Bishop, was the strong but silent type. He preferred to be around Massive Dynamic then school but with his IQ of 188, it wasn't abnormal to find him building with anything he could get his hands on. His abilities were self-regulated and he seemed to never want to get into trouble…all Olivia as Peter often said. He was named after his maternal family and of course Charlie Francis.

Four year old Emma Marilyn Bishop, was the utmost trouble maker…it surprised them both how much trouble a four year old could get into. Her temper tantrums seemed to run with her abilities and it was 'hell' when she threw one…lights would bust, spontaneous fires would erupt and ear drums would bleed…so the main concern was keeping her happy and content. She was named after Peter's paternal grandmother…Robert Bishop's wife and of course Olivia's mother.

Lucy Sonia Bishop, the surprise of the bunch, had made her mark by hiding herself till Olivia went into labor. No swelling, no nausea and no signs of pregnancy…they had thought some type of tumor or something serious till a scan was run at Massive Dynamic and both had looked at the screen in shock as they saw the fetus in a delivery position. She was born and Olivia stated that they hadn't expected to have anymore kids because of her age but it seemed that their daughter didn't want the surprises to end. She was named after Sonia Francis, her godmother and her name Lucy came from 'light' and she was a new light to the Bishop family.


"Sorry Mommy."

Peter saw Olivia and nod, "you know, you should be thankful that's all she does."

"Oh you're not getting off that easy." Olivia pointed her fork at him, "you have their ability exercises today…besides I have to see Dr. Pujodi."

"Pujodi…why?" She smirked and Peter's jaw dropped before regaining itself, "wait, you're…are you sure?"

"Unlike Lucy, this one is speaking to me loud and clear in my dreams…how do you feel about another girl?"


Peter stared in shock…another girl would make Dunham the only boy of the family but as it so happened, Peter enjoyed having daughters. "I'd say I hope she has your eyes."

"Blue eyes would be nice, after all…only Dunham has blue eyes." Olivia pointed at him again, "but after this one…no more, I'll even make sure of it."

Peter chuckled, "five is good…four girls and a boy…I can live with that."

Olivia nodded, "oh you will, because you'll be the one preventing it."

Peter gulped at her statement, "now hold on a minute Sweetheart…"

The Bishop family was at their bickering again, the dog barking and an explosion from the guest house confirmed everything when Peter and Olivia both screamed…

"Walter!"

Everything was back to normal…as chaotic as it could be…after all, they were the Bishop Family.


A/N: The End...sorry but I want a clear head so I can write something for when Olivia really comes home...which airs THIS week on Fringe, YEAH!
