Author Note: I was hungry for more Jori Parenting.


"Mom!"

"Mama!"

The two eight year old entered their parents bedroom.

Both Jade and Tori once they heard their daughters voices, drowsily woke up and got up from their bed, or at the very least tried to, after only succeeding to lift her head, Jade gave up altogether while Tori simply turned around to meet the twins, she was too tired to get up after all.

"Uhh, what is it kids?" The Half-Latina asked "Did you had a nightmare?"

"No, nothing like that mama." Tawny said.

"Good... Nightmares suck... They prevent me cuddling with Vega."

Tori kicked Jade on the shin.

"Ow!"

"Not in front of the children!" She hissed.

"We just wanted to show you two something."

"At three o clock in the morning?!" Jade snapped "Someone better be dead!"

"JADE!"

"Actually it's the opposite." Danielle replied "Look, Goldie and Golden had babies!"

Both women looked at the fishbowl in their eldest daughter's hands, which true to the twin's words the two goldfish had started their own family.

"That's nice baby." Tori yawns "You can name them in the morning."

"But mama!" Tawny whined "We didn't come here to show you the baby fishies."

"That's right!" Her sister agreed "We came here because we wanted to ask mom something."

"Oh, ok... Jade, are you up?"

"Shhh... I'm sleeping, you tell, them whatever they want to know.

"Nuh-uh! We want you to answer something for us Mom!"

"Yeah, you kept telling up you know everything!"

Tori grinned, amused "See? I told your ego was going to come back haunt you."

"Shove it!" Jade hissed "Or I swear you will be waking up without hair."

The Half-Latina puts her arms over her head protectively.

Tiredly, Jade reluctantly got up "Ok girls, what do you want to know?"

"Where do babies come from?" The twins asked at the same time.

That was enough to get Jade and Tori's sleepy mind to be fully awake.

"Uhhh... Vega?... Your the expert on this area... You tell them."

"Oh no!" Tori jumped from the bed "They're asking you... I think I'll go to make myself a sandwiche."

"Tori don't you dare walk out that door, VEGA?!"

But it was too late, the tanned woman ran out of the bedroom like the road runner their children watched on TV.

The former Goth looked down at the curious face of her daughters, eagerly waiting for an answer to their question.

Jade cleaned her throat. "Well girls see when mommies and daddies or in this case two mommies want a baby, they uh seek... I dunno... Help?"

"Help? From who mom?"

"Yeah! Who?!"

Jade was sure that Tawny or Danielle would understand that they weren't conceived under normal circumstances and she sure as hell wasn't about to tell them the regular method.

"That would opening up a can of worms."

So explaining the scientific way would be like speaking in Chinese to her daughters and telling them the natural way was certainly out of the question.

"Unless I want to scar them for life."

So like any mother she took the easy way out.

She lied or as she liked to call it give out the fairytale version of the birds and the bees.

"Kids... Babies come from... Magic."

"Magic?" The girls repeated sceptically.

"Yeah, see your mama and I really wanted children so one night I asked a shooting star and my wish was granted because nine months later you two were born."

"Really?"

"Yeah... Like I said... Magic."

"Can't you and Mama wish up another baby?"

"Yeah!" Tawny agreed "Can we have a baby sister mom?"

"Uh... Let see what your mans says about that." Jade said "Because unless the two parents want it real hard the shooting star doesn't grant the wish."

"Aww, that's sad."

"Well girls, get to bed!" The thespian ordered "Tomorrow you have school and you need to be at your best."

"But school is terrible."

"Very." Jade agreed "But you still have to go, now off to bed!"

The twins went back to their room, not long after Tori came back.

"Is it safe to come in?"

"Vega" The pale woman growled ominously "I swear, you pull something like that again and I'll file for divorce, you hear me?!"

The Half-Latina nodded silently, knowing from experience that when her spouse was used such a dangerous tone, it was best not to say anything.

So she simply went to sleep.

Jade glared at her wife's sleeping body.

"I sweat Vega, I'll get you for ditching me."


... And she did!

Remember when Tori had to explain the birds and the bees to Anthony in a previous chapter?

THAT... Unsurprisingly was Jade's revenge, XD.

Well Jade "telling" Tawny and Danielle where babies come from wasn't as awkward as when Tori told Anthony, but it sure as hell wasn't easy.

As always, constructive criticism is accepted.
