Chapter 29: Savior.
The ride home from the hospital was silent. Both mourning in their own way. Today they had lost not one child, but both. Their hearts torn and their souls shattered. They were thankful they still had each other.
However, when they arrived at their apartment, they heard the sound of crying babies.
'I must be loosing it' They both thought, but were shocked when they entered the nursery, to find Hunter and Bella each in their own crib.
"Oh my God!" Both Alec and Max shouted before moving over to the cribs and taking the children out, hugging and kissing them frantically.
"But...how?" Max stuttered unable to believe her eyes.
Shoes shuffled near the doorway and both Max and Alec looked, to see a woman with crystal blue eyes and shoulder length brown hair. "Hey Ryan"
Alec's eyes opened wide and a large grin appeared on his face. "Kendra!" He ran and hugged the woman who immediately hugged him back. "Max, this is Kendra. Another sister" Alec said to Max laughing.
However, Max frowned at the mention of sister, remembering what had happened with Ashley.
Alec saw this. "Maxie. It's in the past"
Max nodded and Alec turned to Kendra. "Why are you here?"
Kendra smiled. "Ash came back and said you were here, so i thought i'd come see you. I found out that you were at the hospital, so i went there and i saw this guy placing a bomb in the nursery and well...i had to save my neice and nephew"
Max smiled brightly and hugged Bella to her chest. "You saved them?" And at Kendra's nod, Max hugged the woman tightly. "Thank you".
"No problem" Kendra replied. "Anything for family"
Max smiled and swapped children with Alec allowing her to hug Hunter and him to hug Bella. "Thank you so much".
Alec smiled and hugged Kendra. "Ditto" He pulled back and looked at Kendra "I really missed you".
Kendra smiled. "I missed you too" Then she frowned slightly. "Why did you not come back".
Alec sighed. "I couldn't. I couldn't let them find you" He looked to the floor. "I care too much about you".
Kendra smiled and lifted his head. "I'm sorry. I just missed you".
"Well, i'm here now" Alec replied.
"Hey" Max chirped in, looking at Alec. "Why don't you look after the kids, and me and Kendra will go shopping" Max said and pulled Kendra out of the door before Alec could protest.
Alec looked at Hunter and Bella, sighing. "Guess it's just us. Well, I'll find something for us to do".
"Ooooo this would look good on you" Max said to Kendra, holding up a light blue shirt with a dark blue, swirly design on it.
"That's soooo pretty!" Kendra replied and Max placed it in the basket.
"What are these?" Max said holding up some baby clothes that were in the basket.
"What?" Kendra frowned. "I'm not allowed to spoil my neice and nephew?"
Max laughed and put the clothes back in the basket. "You don't have to"
Kendra smiled "I want to"
"Come on" Max said smiling. "We best get back. The kids are probably driving Alec crazy"
Kendra laughed. "Probably"
"Tellytubbies! Tellytubbies! Say hello! Eh o!" Alec was singing when Max and Kendra entered the apartment.
Hunter and Bella squealed in appreciation of his preformance.
"Well" Max laughed. "I was gonna say, what have you been up to. But i think it's obvious"
Alec looked at her incrediously. "It was the only way to keep them from crying"
Kendra smiled. "I believe ya bro"
Alec smirked sarcastically while Max and Kendra laughed.
