Hardly Free II: Seth Reeve Princeton

I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh or Yu-Gi-Oh GX.

But I do own Seth or should I say Reeve.


I enter our room, and walk over to the crib. I hand Reeve over to Chazz so I can inspect the crib my son will be sleeping in while we live with my parents. I want to make sure the crib is safe so nothing can go wrong while my son sleeps.

The crib is sturdy with slats that are not very wide and a firm mattress to go with it. The sheets fit the mattress and I take out all of the pillows because Bakura said pillows are not good for babies.

I smile as I notice the padding that rings the cribs interior, so Reeve won't hurt himself when he can move himself around. I check to make sure the blanket is as soft as it is supposed to be.

I yawn as Chazz dresses Reeve into one-piece sleepers. We are both going to go to bed. We need the sleep because Reeve can be awake in a couple of hours, and sleep is very important for us to keep moving.

"So I believe I should pick out some material to start reading to Reeve. Maybe something that will help him not become afraid of many things," speaks Chazz as we get ready for bed.

"Like what?" I ask him wondering what he has on his mind.

"It's called Kiss of Midnight by Lara Adrian. All that mattered was her baby. Keeping her safe. And she didn't dare do a thing, not even when those sharp teeth lunged toward her and bit down hard into her neck."

"I don't think so," I say as Chazz continues ignoring me.

"She stood utterly frozen with terror, clutching her baby close while her attacker drew hard at the bleeding gash he'd made in her throat," starts Chazz. (1)

"Chazz are you listening to me, I said no," I speak a little louder, getting his full attention.

"Yeah, I heard you," shrugs Chazz looking down into the book again.

"No, Chazz, did you hear what I said, did you process it and understand it, because there is a difference between hearing and listening to someone," I growl out taking the book away from Chazz and closing it.

"Ok, what were you say-," starts Chazz.

"NO, absolutely not," I interrupt him as I sit down on our bed.

"Why not?" asks Chazz sitting down on the bed next to me.

"I will not have you reading him scary bed time stories until he is like ten. I don't want him to have nightmares," I answer pulling the blankets down so I can crawl under them.

"Alright then, how about children stories done by the Brothers Grimm?" asks Chazz as looks at me.

"Not until he is old enough to understand they are not real," I answer him.

"Why not?" Chazz asks again.

"Because the Brothers Grimm's children stories can sometimes be gruesome among other things," I say shrugging my shoulders as I lay down in bed.

"Alright I concede. Goodnight Jaden," whispers Chazz into my ear as he pulls me close to his body.

"Goodnight Chazz," I whisper back as I flip the light switch off.

I know it's only early afternoon, and not a time when people should sleep. But hospital beds are hard to sleep in for very long with two people in them. They are only made to hold one person not two.


"I am so glad we have one-piece outfits for when we are not going anywhere," I smile as I struggle to put the one piece on Reeve.

Reeve is moving his arms and legs around thinking it is a game. He waves his limbs around as I struggle him into the one piece. Chazz is watching me from his spot at the door, laughing at the fact that I'm having a hard time.

"Maybe one piece's are not as great as I first thought they were," I sigh as I button up Reeve.

"Good things we have t-shirts, turtleneck, undershirts, pull on pants, leggings, button-up sweaters, zipper sweatshirts, fleece jackets, sun hat, warm hat, mittens, socks and booties. Especially for days when we go places like Bakura's or when Sartorious comes over, because one piece's are really for home," smiles Chazz as he helps me clean up the station.

"That reminds me, tomorrow he can't be in a one piece because we are going to Bakura's for our check up and later Sartorious is coming over for another session. He says we still have a long way to go before we hit anything that was life changing. Haven't a clue what he's talking about, but I don't really care about his sessions. I can do it on my own, only reason it continues to come is because of dad," I speak as Chazz puts a plastic outlet cover back in its place. (2)

"Seto just wants to make sure everything is going the way it is supposed to. He doesn't want any lasting horrible memoires to keep you from your family and friends. Seto also doesn't want you to be hurt because of having two different personalities," speaks Chazz as I open a draw through a latch to grab some clothes for the both of us.

"I know, I just don't think Sartorious should be present. I can tell he's thinking perverted thoughts about me and ways of getting you out of the picture," I say handing him some clothes as I latch the dresser.

"He wouldn't dare do a thing because he knows he would die. He may fancy you but neither Seto nor I would tolerate anything more but a professional doctor relationship," remarks Chazz stepping over the safety gate to our private bathroom.

"I know you both are protective over me just like we are protective over Reeve. Sometimes I just want to hit him in the face for even thinking about me that way. I have had enough of being taken advantage of because of who I am or because of how naïve I was. Markus got away with it, but I want to make sure no one else does," I growl out as I turn to look away from Chazz.

I don't want him to see me at my weakest, because it is not a pretty. I turn into his arms as he wraps them around my waist pulling me close to his body. I pull away as Reeve starts to cry. I walk over and pick him up.

"Shh, it's ok Reeve. Mommy's fine, mommy just had a sad thought but mommy will be ok," I whisper into Reeve's ear trying to calm him down.

"Starflower, Young Mom is going to be fine. Your daddy here will protect you both for all enemies. So you don't have to cry anymore, ok," whispers Chazz swaying us both back and forth in his arms.

Reeve stops crying and almost smiles at us. Chazz is so wonderful with kids. I can't believe he can calm down my baby without any troubles. I sigh as I place Reeve into Chazz's arms as I walk around to make sure the rooms are safe.

I do this every day that way I know when I put him down in this room that he is safe. Chazz thinks I'm obsessive a little too much. I believe that I have to be because I don't want anything to go wrong with Reeve.

I'm just glad Chazz and I don't wear make-up, we don't keep knives in our room, and we make sure the cleaning lady doesn't leave her cleaning supplies around. All the medication is locked up in the cupboard above the bathroom sink where the baby is not allowed to go until he is old enough to use the toilet.
