A/N: Okay, so I'm terribly sorry for the slight delay on all my stories. But I'm afraid that will continue for the next 4 years or something xD. My classes will start next Monday, and that will take so much time and energy that I think I won't be able to post much. I will try and finish most of my running stories before I get back to school, but I can't promise anything. And this chapter is the last chapter I have finished for Child's Play, I'm not planning on stopping with this story but I am for now. Temporarily. Bear with me, please. Oil be foine. That's Irish for I'll be fine.

FYI: Christian is 25, Sam is 24 (they both won't be in this chapter, sorry again!), Tony is 21, Becky is 19 and Hope and India are 3 :D.

Disclaimer: Nothing is mine.

'Here's Tony!'

As Lisbon walked into the living room, she noticed nobody was in sight. She rolled her eyes.

"What are you doing?"

She heard two high chuckles, and one lower one.

"We're playing hide-and-seek! You have to find us!" she heard Jane saying. She sighed, but as soon as she started searching she smiled. Hope and India were quite capable of hiding behind all sorts of things, such as the couch and they could even hide behind the table. But Jane, a full grown man, wasn't. She immediately saw Jane's blonde curls coming from above the kitchen table, his feet sticking out at the other side.

She silently walked over to Jane, and then dove on him. He startled, but smiled as soon as he saw Lisbon's big smile. He stole a quick kiss from her.

"You have the look for the girls," he whispered. She rolled her eyes once again, but started looking.

They weren't behind the couch, and just when Lisbon was about to look further, a knock on the front door came.

Jane hurried to open it, while Lisbon continued her search.

"Here's Tony!" Jane exclaimed, and Lisbon could stop looking since the two girls jumped up from their hiding place and ran to the front door. Lisbon sighed, but smiled.

"Tony!" the girls exclaimed in unison. The girls were almost in love with him, they'd always been and it only grew more the older they got. It wasn't like Tony looked after them much, the girls were most of the times dropped at Jane and Lisbon's. Yet the Jane family was tight and you could clearly see that in the way the girls interacted with Tony and their grandparents.

"Hey there! Glad to see me, aren't you?"

"Yes!"

Tony entered the living room, and Lisbon smiled as she saw Becky following him. It was great to finally see just one girl at Tony's side whenever he visited them. He was living together with Becky now, in a house that Jane more or less had paid for. But he didn't complain, it was the least he could do. He wanted his children to end up happy too.

The fact that neither Tony nor Samantha were used to small houses since they grew up in a rather big one, made paying for their houses just a bit more difficult.

"Hi T," Lisbon said as she walked over to him and straightened his vest. Tony began to be like his dad, wearing three-piece-suits whenever he wanted. Of course both Lisbon and Becky didn't really like it, since one Jane was more than enough, but they didn't complain.

"Mum," Tony muttered under his breath, pointing out that she had to stop. Lisbon looked into his clear green eyes, and then sighed and took a step backwards.

"Hey Becky," said Lisbon, and the girl smiled at Lisbon.

"Well, sit down for as much that's possible with two girls on your arms," Lisbon said, looking at Hope and India who decided Tony's arms were some kind of attraction from which they could hang.

Tony smiled, and sat down, Becky close beside him. Lisbon looked at Jane who had only just entered the room. He smiled faintly at her, they both knew what was coming now.

Tony and Becky didn't drop by much without telling them beforehand. They didn't like it themselves if their friends did that, so they wouldn't do it either. So the fact that they did it now was evidence enough of their announcement.

And also because although Jane wasn't a mentalist anymore, he could still read them like child books.

"Tea?" Jane asked, and Tony shook his head.

"We won't be here long," said Becky.

Everybody sat down, Hope and India around Tony of course, like he was their idol and they were fan girls.

"We, uhm... Have something to tell-"

"Let me guess: pregnant or marrying-"

Lisbon silenced Jane by pinching his arm painfully.
"Ouch!"

"Yeah, continue, T," said Lisbon, and looked at Tony expectantly. She knew what he was going to say, but she was curious as to how he would put it.

Tony wasn't really fond of weddings, and throughout a big part of his life he said that he wouldn't get married himself. On Jane and Lisbon's wedding, he couldn't wait to get home and be able to play with his toys again, even if he was only three then.

Lisbon had learned from Jane. She could see when somebody was pregnant: the touches the woman would occasionally place on her tummy were just inevitable. And Becky didn't do these touches, so she wasn't pregnant.

Tony looked at Becky for support, and she rolled her eyes faintly before moving to the edge of the couch and looking at Jane and Lisbon.
"Tony proposed to me," said Becky, and Jane and Lisbon exchanged some looks, before smiling.

"And what did you say?" asked Hope, and Tony and Becky smiled at her.

"I said yes," Becky said, grabbing Tony's hand and squeezing it gently, and everybody smiled. They didn't know if the girls understood what was happening, since their parents weren't married either – now that they all thought about it, Tony and Becky were the only ones who did it 'properly': first getting married and then starting with children. Though they highly doubted that these two would get children, but hey, getting married was already a surprise so who knew?

"Congratulations," Jane said, and he was the first to stand and shake their hands.

Though Tony and Becky had said they wouldn't stay long, they couldn't resist Hope and India, just like nobody else couldn't.

Lisbon had taken Becky apart, and now the two were standing in the kitchen. Becky loved to talk with Lisbon, and that feeling was greatly reciprocated.

"Tell me, Becky, how did Tony propose to you? Don't get me wrong, I'm not criticizing him in any way, but I'm just curious to know how he did it. Because when he lived with us, he always kept on telling me that he wouldn't get married, but you seemed to have changed his mind."
Becky smiled.
"It wasn't highly romantic, but it was still cute. We were in the club with all our friends when he walked up to the DJ and asked for the mic. He then began to explain about you and Patrick, how you had lived together for a long while, got children and that he didn't want to end up like you. Though I don't doubt that he loves you still. He told everybody how much he loved me and then called me to the little stage. Then he asked it."

Lisbon smiled.

"Well, I'm happy he did. He needs you, trust me."
