Chapter 21

"Hey babe? Happy honey?" Toby calls from down stairs.

"Yeah Doc?" Happy calls back while trying to help Gracie into her shoes.

"Breakfast is ready."

"Be down soon!"

"Mama, where's my hat?" Gracie asked sitting on the end of the bed.

"Um… maybe it's down stairs with Daddy." Happy hates dealing with her husband's hat let all be her baby girls hat.

Once downstairs Gracie takes her seat at the table by Ezra. Happy walks up to Toby as he makes her coffee. His hat also not in yet.

"You deal with the hats. I don't wanna be the one she comes to when she loses it. Got it Toby" Happy says in her stern mother voice.

"Alright." Toby turns to his daughter as she eats while her eyes wonder across the room in search of her hat. "Hey baby when did you last have tour hat?"

"When we got home from da garage I puts it on the hat rack." Toby purses his lips together and pushes himself up from his leaning position on the counter and walks to the hat rack by the door. He lifts his hat and finds hers underneath his.

Gracie's eyes go wide like he made it appear from nowhere. "My Hat!" Gracie jumps up and runs to Toby's legs, wrapping her arms around his legs and then stepping back while he places it on his head. Toby's smile was bright.

It was those moments in parenthood where they watched each other's worlds come together. Saw the light and pride in the other eyes.

Gracie went back to her seat and finished breakfast. Happy took a sip of coffee and Toby had a big smile on his face. He kissed Happy's cheek and slipped a hand around her hip.

"We're doing good, Doc"

"Yeah we're alright." They both smiled fondly while watching their children.

Happy's phone rang and it was Cabe. They had a case and both were needed at the garage ASAP. They quickly loaded up the kids in the car with their things.

It took them 10 minutes to get to the garage and Paige was pulling in with Ralph at the same time. Ralph carried Gracie's bag and Paige held Gracie to help Toby and Happy with they grabbed the rest of their things. Once in their they same Walter and Cabe getting things set up.

"Good you're here. We have a hostage situation." Cabe said. Sly had live video pulled up on the monitor.

Paige handed Gracie to Cabe and Ezra took out a book and sat quietly on the couch. Happy subconsciously looked around taking quick inventory of where her kids were. On the monitor was a man in a suit, tied to a chair.

Toby and Happy and Paige looked at each other. They agreed they didn't want the kids to hear or see any part of this case.

"Cabe" Toby interrupts.

"What?"

"Ralph could you take the kids out for the day?" Paige asks.

"Where would I take an 8 and 3 year old?"

"They like museums." Toby offered. Ralph took the kids out and they proceeded with the case.

"Alright, so we need to find out his location and save him. We have this footage to go off of it's a live feed."

Cabe took them to the place and Happy and Toby went to the designated air vent. Toby and Cabe lifted Happy and then she helped pull her husband up. The crawled through with Sly giving them directions. Happy stopped abruptly causing Toby to head to bump into her ass.

"Toby" Happy whispers.

"Sorry, some warning would have been nice."

They squeeze so both can see through the grate. The hostage and suspects are in there.

"Toby get my phone from my pocket." Happy whispers. Toby does as she asked. Happy takes a few pictures of the scene below and has Toby put her phone back into her pocket.

Cabe has a S. W. A. T. Team surrounding the building. Homeland is prepared to break in at any moment. Walter gives them the signal and Happy kicks the grate out of he air vent, coindancely hitting one of the bad guys in the head.

Happy jumps out, landing nicely in her feet. Toby joins her as Homeland and S. W. A. T. Run in. The bad guys are taken away and Happy and Toby untie the captive.

"This didn't go as we planned." Toby says.

"Least he's safe." Happy says. "Now I wanna go home to my babies."

They get back and Ralph brings the kids back 40 minutes later. Happy picks up Gracie and gives her a kiss on her head and Toby has Ezra. They trayed off and Happy kissed Ezra's head and then when he went to read his book Happy turned and saw Gracie fast asleep in Toby's arms.

"She's so tired." Toby says with a smile. Happy stepped closer and kissed Gracie's head.

"You kids take the kids home. There's nothing else to do today." Cabe says.

"Thanks Cabe." Happy says.

They get into the car. They kids are buckled and Gracie is asleep in the back neck to to Ezra. Once home, Ezra wonders into the house and Happy carries Gracie in with Toby grabbing their bags.

Happy laid Gracie in bed and met Toby in the hall to tuck Ezra in. They kissed him good night, then went to their room.

"I don't think I wanna sleep yet." Happy says.

"I'm good at making you wanna sleep." Toby says, suggestively.

"I was thinking the same." Happy says with a grin.

Toby shuts the door and locks it. He walks over to Happy as she removes her shoes. She straightened up and finds Toby wrapping his arms around her. His hands go to her hips and he kisses her neck.

"So we are on the same page?" Toby mumbles against her neck.

Happy nods gently. "Yes. I have needs, Toby."

"I know darling. Let me take care of you." He whispered into her ear.

She nodded once again. He turns her to face him, pulling her face into a kiss. She kisses back, pushing her hand against his chest, forcing him to walk backwards towards the bed.

He sat on the edge of the bed, Happy climbing up to straddle his lap. "We doing this?" Happy asked.

"If that's what my Queen wishes."

"Oh I do"

Happy jumps off of him and pulls her pants down. Toby undoes his belt and gets outta his pants. Toby removed his socks and shirt.

Once both were naked, they surged together again. Lips on the others skin and falling into bed. Toby sucked on her jaw as they slipped together…
