Thanks very, very much for the reviews!

The only ones from the New York team that hadn't been able to fly down to Miami to visit Mac and Horatio were Sid and Adam. Sid was on a second honeymoon with his wife in Europe and Adam was at a conference about audio and video processing in Canada.

The twins were already a month old and it felt like the time had just flown by for Horatio and Mac. In a way that saddened them; they wanted their children to grow up of course, but it was also hard to accept that it happened so fast.

Sheldon was holding Caylee, while Danny was holding Noah. Everyone teased him that it was good training for him since he was going to be a father in six months. Lindsay was three months pregnant with her and Danny's first child.

"So are you used to being parents now?" Lindsay asked.

"Yeah. And our sleeping schedule is almost the same as when we used to work. I never realized that being retired could make you forget what it was like waking up in the middle of the night after only a few hours of sleep." Mac said.

"Mostly I have to get up though, because Noah refuses to calm down when Mac holds him." Horatio said.

"He is definitely your little boy." Mac grinned.

Noah seemed to love Sheldon too because when Sheldon had first held him he had been cooing and smiling at him the whole time. When Sheldon had then handed him over to Danny, the boy had stopped making sounds and just stared at Danny.

"I'm you Uncle Danny." He grinned, "Your sister smiled at me, you want to smile at me too?"

Noah glanced towards his fathers and Danny chuckled.

"I think he needs to change his diaper." Don said and grimaced at the smell.

"Well, Danny, ready to try it?" Mac asked.

Danny smiled and stood up with Noah in his arms. Everyone secretly hoped that Danny would get peed on by the boy too. Noah had still not peed on anyone and just because Danny was a father-to-be everyone felt a little evil and wanted him to experience it.

Sheldon handed Caylee over to Lindsay and the little girl made baby noises. She kicked with her little arms and legs and glanced at Horatio.

It had felt really weird for everyone to see pictures of Mac and Horatio holding the babies (Mac and Horatio had sent pictures to them every week), but they were quickly getting used to it. There was no doubt in anyone's mind that they were going to be great fathers.

"I can't wait to have my own little bundle of joy." Lindsay smiled.

Nobody mentioned Missus Lacey Reardon because they didn't want to ruin the mood. They already knew from Mac that Horatio was worried and had trouble sleeping because of nightmares. There were two uniformed officers outside the home at all times and they also followed Mac and Horatio wherever they went. They went for a walk in the park every evening and one of the officers was always walking a few feet behind them, while the other one drove around the park keeping an eye out for Mrs. Reardon.

Both Mac and Horatio tried to relax and not think about the mad woman, but it was hard.

"Are you going to find out what you're having?" Horatio asked.

"Yeah, we decided that we couldn't wait." Lindsay smiled.

The sound of Mac's laughter echoed through the house and he came walking into the living room, holding Noah and laughing so hard that he had tears running from his eyes.

"Jackpot!" He smirked.

"He peed on him?" Don asked.

"Yep, our son hit him right on the chest." Mac grinned and sat down next to his lover.

He handed Noah over to Don, who was a little nervous to hold a baby, but Noah seemed to like him at first. Just as Danny came out with a shirt that he had borrowed from Mac, Noah started whimpering and his lower lip quivered while tears ran from his eyes.

"Oh, you don't like me." Don smiled, "That's okay. I will still give you Christmas gifts."

Noah kicked with his legs and when Don failed to calm him down, he handed him over to Sheldon, which seemed to do the trick. Noah stopped whimpering and his eyes started to close.

"Damn, he's going to be Uncle Sheldon's boy from now on." Horatio joked.

Sheldon grinned, "That's right. I'm the new favorite in town."

When Caylee and Noah had fallen asleep they were put down in their cribs and Mac ordered some pizza. Everyone sat on the back porch and talked while enjoying their meal.

"So how many nurses did Horatio scare during the labor?" Don asked with a smirk.

"None. They were more worried that he was going to kill me." Mac said.

"I wasn't that bad was I?"

"You have no idea. But it's understandable." Mac smiled, "One minute you were happy, the next you were either in tears or angry. I've never heard you curse so much in the years we've been together."

"So you must be very happy then that I'm no longer under the influence of pregnancy hormones?" Horatio asked.

"Absolutely. No more driving to McDonalds in the middle of the night because you want hamburgers; within a week I had become a regular in that place." Mac said.

"What can I say? I needed those goddamn hamburgers and when I need something I need it quick." Horatio grinned innocently.

"You can get away with a lot things when you're pregnant." Lindsay said, "And people will be so nice to you all the time too."

"Exactly." Horatio grinned.

"Well, the first time you started crying because your favorite TV show wasn't going to air on TV I was so stunned." Danny said to his girlfriend, "You had never reacted like that before and then suddenly you were crying and could barely tell me what was wrong because you were hysterical and sad."

Everyone laughed as Lindsay blushed.

"Pregnancy hormones." She smiled innocently, "It's all I can say about it."

Danny chuckled and kissed her on the cheek.

-I-

It was later in the evening and the New York team had gone back to their hotel. The twins had been fed and were now watching each other from their babysitters in the living room. Mac was making some late night snack when Horatio sneaked up behind him and wrapped his arms around him.

"Hi." He smiled and buried his face in Mac's neck.

"Hello there." Mac grinned and turned around in Horatio's arms, "What can I do for you?"

"You can enjoy my touch." Horatio whispered.

He slid his hand against the inside of Mac's thigh and smirked when he heard his lover swallow hard. Mac instantly felt his member harden and he gasped when Horatio caressed him through his jeans.

Horatio kissed Mac's neck and slowly unbuttoned his jeans. His hand slid inside the younger man's boxers and Mac moaned when he felt Horatio's hand rub against his hardening length.

"Love, the babies-"

"Are perfectly okay for a few minutes." Horatio whispered.

Mac moaned and watched as Horatio got down on his knees. Horatio pulled his lover's boxers and jeans down enough to free his stiff shaft. Pre-cum was glistening at the head of his erection and Horatio licked it off; making Mac gasp loudly.

"Uh, please more."

Horatio grinned and enveloped the head of Mac's straining manhood. He sucked and swirled his tongue around his sensitive slit and glans.

"Oh, Horatio!"

Mac grabbed a fistful of his lover's hair and started to slowly thrust into his mouth. Horatio felt his own erection straining in his pants, but he ignored it. He wanted only to please Mac now.

As Mac started thrusting, Horatio enveloped his whole length and felt it throbbing against his tongue. They were allowed to have sex as long as Mac was the one being penetrated, but they hadn't had it yet. Horatio had to wait another two weeks before he was allowed be topped by Mac.

"Ah, oh love!"

Mac closed his eyes and Horatio grabbed onto his buttocks to keep him steady as he got a good rhythm. His teeth gently graced his lover's shaft and his tongue swirled around him.

Horatio hummed and moaned; he loved the feeling of Mac's member on his tongue and in his mouth. He could taste Mac's pre-cum and could feel Mac tense his body; he knew his lover was close now.

"Horatio, uh yes!"

Mac tensed with his whole body; all the way from his toes and up. He started thrusting faster and his knees buckled slightly when Horatio's hands started fondling his balls.

"Uh, god yes!"

Horatio smiled and gently nipped at Mac's shaft; making the younger man cry out and climax. Mac's legs were shaking and he kept on thrusting throughout his orgasm. His grip on Horatio's hair tightened and he gasped and moaned. Horatio swallowed everything Mac had to give and then continued sucking him until his length had gone soft.

He stood up and gave Mac a passionate kiss.

"What did that come from?" Mac panted.

"Just felt like doing it." Horatio shurgged.

"You need help with that?" Mac asked and eyed the hard bulge in Horatio's pants.

"Later, when the twins are sleeping." Horatio whispered and then left the kitchen as Mac pulled his boxers and jeans up.

Mac shook his head amused and smiled before joining his lover in the living room.

-I-

Lacey Reardon stepped out on the streets of Miami. She was wearing a hooded shirt and jeans. Nowhere near the classy clothes she usually wore, but due to the situation she was in she couldn't wear anything else. She had to be as invisible as possible or else she would be arrested by the police. She had already seen a picture of herself all over the news.

She had a perfect plan though. She was going to get her revenge on Horatio Caine; and she was going to make sure that he suffered before she killed him. Then she would leave the country and settle down somewhere else, maybe Bahamas. She had a lot of money left from before she had been arrested and she had money from her husband too. She also had a plan regarding her dear husband. She couldn't get him out of her mind. She could only think of two people; her husband and Horatio. The one she loved and the one she hated more than anything in the world.

Oh, how she hated Horatio and his team. She knew he had two babies now; twins. And she knew how to use them to get to him. All she wanted from Horatio was to hear his agonizing screams as he suffered and to feel the life leave his body by her hands.

Horatio Caine's days were numbered. All she had to do now was to start planning everything in perfect detail and require some tools and a place to hide. Then she could get her revenge.

Mac Taylor would become a single parent soon and Mrs. Reardon wouldn't allow anything or anyone to stop her from completing her mission.
