A month after Arthur had to try a few spells to keep Tino's heart rate down. Then during the birth another spell to help keep the pain down.
Once the child was born Tino and Berwald named him Peter, the child had thick eyebrows like Arthur's, everyone blamed the spells. Tino never let Peter out of his sight, in fear of Ivan. One night Tino and Berwald slept with Peter between them. Everything was peaceful until the Finn woke to floor boards creaking just outside the room.
Tino carefully picked his way out of the room without waking Peter or Berwald. Out of the room it was lighter because of the candles. Tino stared down one direction until he saw as much as he could. Quickly he turned but stopped once he saw a tall man. He had dark violet eyes and snow blond hair.
Tino gasped, "Ivan…"
The Russian smiled a chilling grin, "Tino~. How are you enjoying my little gift~?"
The Finn backed up slightly, "G-Gift?"
"Da~. That little child, Peter~."
Tino eyes widened and he took another step back, "Ar-Arthur said…"
"Hm~? Oh! Nyet…The child is yours and Berwald's…And from my spell there shall be many more in the future~."
Tino shook his head, "Get out…"
"Are you not grateful? You and dear prince still live happily ever after," Ivan grin widened, "And…if you do not want your gift…" There was a puff of smoke and Ivan disappeared. There was another and he reappeared with Peter, "I can always take it back~."
Tino felt tears prick his eyes and he shook his head, taking a step forward, "Don't touch my son…"
Ivan grinned and hugged Peter, "He is so cute when he sleeps~."
"Give him back…" Tino spoke through clenched teeth.
"Oh. I thought it seemed like you didn't want him~."
Ivan held up a hand and was about to throw it down when someone grabbed it from behind, "He said…ta g've 'im b'ck…" Berwald stepped to be next to Ivan, "I s'gg'st ya do s'…"
Ivan grin grew as he slowly held Peter out to Tino. The Finn carefully but quickly took the child and held him close. The Russian freed his hand and disappeared.
Berwald walked up to Tino and held him in a secure hug as he started to cry silently, "I was so scared…"
The Swede stroked Tino's hair, "I kn'w…"
"He wanted to take Peter…Th-That's why he cast the spell…"
Berwald held Tino tighter, being careful of Peter who was between them, "He w'n't g't 'im…" Tino nodded, "L't's go b'ck ta b'd…"
