I get up in the evening
and I ain't got nothing to say
I come home in the morning
I go to bed feeling the same way
I ain't nothing but tired
Man I'm just tired and bored with myself
Hey there baby, I could use just a little help

You can't start a fire
You can't start a fire without a spark
This gun's for hire
even if we're just dancing in the dark. Dancing in the Dark-Bruce Springsteen

Alex's Pov

Today was the day the twins were being christened they looked so cut I must have taken about 100 pictures. Destiny was wearing a silk gown with roses embroidered on it and Deacon was wearing a little white suit I know most parents say this but my kids are the most beautiful babies on the planet. The church was packed I never knew that Randy and I knew this many people. I couldn't explain why but I had this really bad feeling. I was so deep in thought I didn't hear Randy enter the room he wrapped his arms around my waste.

"We have to get going" he said. He looked down at the sleeping forms of our children and smiled.

"What is so funny" I asked when I saw him smirk.

"I'm just imagining how loud those two are going to scream when they have the water poured on their heads" He replied

"Oh god I don't want to think about it" I said

Randy threw a cloth over his shoulder and then grabbed Destiny he learned fast babies and nice clothes don't mix. We took our seats in the church which happened to be the same on Randy and I were christened in. Father Lawrence began the service he asked Randy and I and the godparents to bring the babies up. I felt bad because I laughed a little when I saw John wearing a suit. (A/N: Seriously can you picture John in a suit I'm having trouble). I handed Deacon to him and Randy gave Destiny to Becky. Everything was going great Father Lawrence was about to start the service when there was a loud bang in the back of the church. I looked up to see someone I thought I'd never see again my father. But yet there he was staggering drunkenly towards us.

"Looky here it's Alex my only daughter" he slurred. Then he continued to talk to himself. "you think a man would be informed when his only daughter gets married and has children but no I have to find out from the internet"

I grabbed the twins and went into the other room. Tears of embarassment and fury fell down my cheeks.

"Hey you two don't worry you'll never have to see him again" I told my children. They would never have to be exposed to a drunk like that. I was ashamed at what the man I used to love and respect had turned into. Randy entered.

"Hey are you ok we got rid of him" he said

"I never told you why he left did I" I asked

"No you didn't" he replied

"He ran off to Ohio with his boss's wife Deb and her two kids" I told him.

"That's horrible but don't worry he's gone" he said

"Yeah I guess so" I replied

We returned to the main part of the church and took our spots next to the priest.

"Ok are we ready" he asked. Randy and I nodded.

"Ok we are here to bring Deacon and Destiny into our family today" he said. He reached out and took Destiny from Becky.

"Destiny Kyler we baptize you in the name of the lord may goodness forever be within you" he said pouring the water on Destiny's head and as we predicted she screamed. Then he took Deacon and said.

"Deacon Kristopher we baptize you in the name of the lord may goodness forever be within you" and then again he poured water on Deacon's head and again screams. I took Deacon from the priest and quited him down.

"Do you vow to bring these children up in the way of the lord" he asked us

"Yes" the 6 of us answered. (Randy,Alex,John,Ashley,Becky,Nathan)

"Ok you have taken these vows and so the children will forever be in God's light" he said

Ok the boring part was over now it was party time. Even with my dad's inturruption we still had a really good time. My kids had enough people around them to love them they didn't need a drunken grandfather.
