Alec and Magnus helped got the girls dressed together, then themselves. Max opted to stay home until their grandmother came by to pick him up so they could run a few errands and go shopping. Alec was hesitant at first, but Max ensured him that he would be fine by himself for some hours.

Honestly, Max just wanted to sleep and not deal with his siblings for a while. Alec gave him two hundred dollars in case he wanted to buy himself something when they went out or order food. Whatever. Max only took a hundred and gave the rest back to his brother. He didn't need that much, it was still summertime if anything Alec was going to need it for bills or when it's time to take him shopping for school clothes.

He was excited about that because he had to wear uniforms for school, and now he could express himself by dressing a certain way. "I'm sleeping in your bed though, I hope that's alright."

Alec smiled and nodded. "That's fine, just spread it when you get up okay? My laptop is on my desk if you want to get online or anything. Games are downstairs. Netflix and Hulu are on both tv's so you should be good, and mom has a spare key so you can lock the door when you leave. Since we won't be here long, I'm not making new keys only for the new house and I will hand those out today." Alec hugs Max tightly, then kisses his forehead. "Be careful and safe, please. I don't need any surprises. I love you, Maxie."

"Love you too big bro. Now go away I'm tired after eating all that food. I mean that was a huge breakfast." Max said as he hopped into Alec's bed and buried himself under the covers.

Magnus chuckled and shook his head at the two brothers.

Magnus walked the girls into daycare with Alec so he could fill out some paperwork. You see Alec left Magnus' name off a lot of their girl's things except for their birth certificate. He made sure to write his name down, no matter how he felt at the time. He would never keep them from knowing their sire father.

"Good Morning Ms. Deebie, how are you doing today?" Alec asked the short woman with beautiful brown skin, dark brown eyes, jet black hair with gray natural streaks up in a ponytail. She wore a wide grin as she seen the family enter the daycare.

The daycare was my too far from the house, in fact, it was right up the street called "All Gods Children" Alec and Magnus weren't big on religion, but this was the only daycare Alec liked. The teachers there really cared about the children, and actually taught the children instead of just letting them watch movies and eat junk food. Education is very important to Alec and he wants his girls to have the best education in the world.

That's probably why he was going to enroll Max in a charter school. It's free and he doesn't have to pay for tuition. Granted Max would have to wear uniforms, but not all the time only for the first week of school, then they can wear whatever they want as long as it's not provocative. Alec knew how much Max wanted to be able to express himself through his clothes. Magnus or Izzy could help him with that, but Alec got the feeling Max could do it all on his own.

"I'm doing good thanks for asking. But I have to say, I missed these little faces. Where have you been Alec? You know how we feel about these two precious girls." She said sternly. Alec smiled, he knew that everyone loved his girls. They have such wonderful spirits that light up the entire room. The teachers even fight over them, it's flattering.

Alec chuckled. "Sorry sweets, it won't happen again, but their father is here now and I wanted them to spend some time together." Speaking of which Alec introduced her to Magnus who was watching the two interact while playing with a giggling Sariah in his arms.

"Me Debbie this is Magnus. Sariah and Riley's father. Magnus this is Ms. Debbie, one of the best teachers here."

Magnus smiled and shook her hand. She stared at him for a moment then returned the smile. "Don't you leave these three again, you hear?" She said to Magnus in a cold tone. Alec was shocked because he never heard her use that short of to be before, but over the few years, people have become very protective of Alec and the girls because it was rare that men were able to bear children.

Some people think it's disgusting that men shouldn't be able to have children and some find it to be a blessing from the Lord above. A lot of gay couples wish they could have their own biological children instead of going through the system in becoming foster parents, then the whole adoption thing. It could be a headache, but Alec and Magnus are one of the couples blessed to have their own children, so it's understandable why people are so protective of him.

Magnus smiled kindly at the lady standing in front of him with a cold expression. "I wouldn't dream of leaving my family, it wasn't my intention in the first place. They were taking from me, and I spent a year looking for them, so you don't have to worry about that ma'am." He winked when he finished.

Ms. Debbie chuckled. "Well aren't you just a smooth talker, but I'll hold you to your word. This is our favorite family here. Don't tell the other parents." She whispered quietly making Magnus chuckle himself. They heard movement coming from their right and turned to see a woman with blonde hair and green eyes coming towards them.

"Alec!" She exclaimed. "Where have you been?! Dave and I have been worried sick!" She hugged Alec then kissed Riley on the cheek who giggled in return.

"Sorry Cami, but we've had a few emotional days. But I would like for you to meet my boyfriend Magnus and Riley and Sariah's father." Camille looked at Magnus for a bit before shaking his hand. "You hurt them again, you die." She said coldly then smiled. "It's nice to meet You! Oh, Alec, we're throwing Benjamin a birthday party next weekend and you all are invited! I won't take no for an answer! I call dibs on having Riley and Sariah first!" Camille says to Ms. Debbie who frowned.

"Sorry hun, but first comes, first served! They're mine! We have some things to do." Both Alec and Magnus burst out laughing at the two women bicker over their children. It was a sight to see. After Magnus filled out the contact information, they said goodbye to the girls and headed for work. Riley and Sariah thought it was funny watching their teachers fight over them. Both Alec and Magnus smiled and shook their heads at the two protective women standing in front of them holding their babies.

"Well, that was entertaining," Magnus says after entering the car after he opening the door for Alec. Alec smiled and nodded. "Yeah, imagine what they are going to be like once they meet my siblings. They are very protective of me. A year ago, a teacher that worked there was homophobic and used to say racial slurs at me and the girls. Ms. Debbie and Camille walked in just in time for her to say something and they went off. Now, I never thought I would hear teachers cursing in a religious place, but it was a bloodbath. The police were called and that teacher went to jail and lost her teaching license. It was crazy. Everyone heard about what happened and ever since they've been protective of us. I couldn't ask for a great support team outside of the family." Alec finished staring into the distance as if he was in a trance remembering that day.

Magnus grabbed his hand and squeezed it. "I'm so sorry I wasn't there for you baby. I will always regret not being there for you throughout your entire pregnancy. I'm so sorry."

"Its okay Mags, it wasn't your fault. Now we can focus on the future and if we plan on having children again, I know you will be there with me the entire time. So please don't hate yourself for not being there. Please, we went over this. Robert and Maryse are to blame, not you or anyone else for that matter. Now, let's get to work, we have a long day ahead of us." Alec says when they pull into the Hotel parking lot.

Sorry for any mistakes...
