Week 24

Week 18

Stefanie sat on the sofa staring out the window. She was starting to get too big to move. She thought it was back with the twins, but she was wrong. Clark walked in with a cup of tea.

"It's supposed to snow tonight." He said. She took the tea.

"I hate snow." She sipped the tea looking up at him, "I hope you know that these babies are your birthday and anniversary presents." Clark chuckled.

"Best presents I could ever receive." He said. Stefanie began to whimper.

"I'm so uncomfortable, Clark." She moaned. Clark sighed and began to rub her back.

"I know, Babe, but you need to hold on for another ten weeks and then we can think about them delivering the babies." Clark said.

"Ten weeks is so long." She moaned. Clark kissed her temple.

"I know, bur you want them healthy right?" He asked. Stefanie nodded slowly, "Then You're going to listen to Dr. Summers orders and have three healthy babies next year."

"You have the east part." Stefanie smiled as she watched the school bus pull up. She watched Chandler pull the twins off of the bus. "She's going to kill them one day." Clark chuckled as Breckin ran into the living room.

"Daddy, I had an accident." he said. Stefanie groaned as Clark got up.

"Okay, Son." he sighed taking Breckin's hand. They walked to the bathroom and Clark saw the mess. "Jesus, Breck, you can't keep doing this. You're almost four."

"I'm sorry." Breckin whispered.

"Go to your room. If you do this again You're going to get a spanking." Clark said. Breckin's eyes widened.

"Okay." he bolted out of the bathroom.

"Damn, child." Clark muttered grabbing a paper towel roll. Chandler stood in the doorway, "What?"

"I need you to sign this." Chandler held up a card, "it's from my teacher." Clark narrowed his eyes and snatched the paper from her.

"Dear mr. And Mrs. Deveraux, your daughter..."He mumbled as he read it, "the last three tests! Damn it, Chandler, You're smarter than that."

"I can't do math!" Chandler moaned, "Fractions are too hard."

"They are if you don't try." Clark grabbed the pen from Chandler's hand, "I'll sign this but this isnt the end of this young lady. If you fail another test, I swear to god your butt will be sore."

"I promise, I won't Daddy." Chandler said.

"Now go to the dining room and work on your homework when You're done show it to me." he narrowed his eyes.

"Yes, Daddy." Chandler said and left the room. Clark shook his head and finished cleaning up Breckin's mess, when he heard Elijah crying, He groaned loudly.

"Daddy!" He moaned.

"What is it now?" Clark asked he turned to see his son's lip bleeding.

"What happened?" Clark picked him up and placed him on the sinks edge.

"Nothing." Elijah mumbled.

"It was something." Clark placed a cold washcloth on his lip.

"Hudson punched me because I wouldn't let him play with my he-man toy." Elijah began to cry, "I tr-tried to hit him back like you said t-to, but he jumped on me and h-hit m-me."

"HUDSON!" Clark snapped. He talked out of the bathroom. Hudson ran past him, "get over here, Boy."

"Eli is a whimp!" Hudson cried. Clark snagged him bu the shirt and hit him on his rear hard.

"I swear to god, Hudson. I don't know what to do with you anymore. Stop acting like You're the bad twin!" Clark snapped.

"Eli is a whimp." Hudson repeated. He was just trying to piss Clark off.

"Upstairs! In your room now!" He snapped.

"Fine. I have toys there!" Hudson wailed. He stomped upstairs and slammed his bedroom door. Clark sighed deeply. He was turning into his own father after all. Damn children, he thought. What else would happen next? As if on cue, Morgan started to cry from her crib.

"Clark?" Stefanie called out from the livingroom, "Could you please get her for me?" Clark groaned.

"Yes, Dear." Clark sighed and climbed dup the stirs. This house was terribly hectic already. Three more were about to make their appearance soon. Clark was going to die.

Week 26

Week 20

Jaida watched Richard carefully as he shoveled the front walkway. It was funny watching him trying to be a macho man. Ethan and Tori walked towards the house.

"Hey, Guys, come here." Richard said. Tori glanced at Ethan.

"Why? I'm taking Tori on her walk." Ethan said. Tori looked at him and narrowed her eyes.

"I'm not a dog." She said.

"I made something for the baby." Richard said as he put his shovel down, "it's in the garage."

"You made the baby something?" Ethan questioned him.

"Yes." Richard put a mini television screen on the table. Tori arched her eyebrow,

"You made it a tv?" She asked.

"No. It's a baby monitor." Richard picked up a small camera.

"They already have those." Ethan chuckled.

"Yeah but not many of them are two way and can do this." Richard hit a button on top of the set. Tori and Ethan flinched as they expected it to blow up, but Brahm's lullaby played.

"Oh! How wonderful." Tori clapped her hands.

"Thanks." Ethan said.

"No problem." Richard said, "Listen, I want to talk to you about something else."

"Okay." Ethan said as he pointed the camera towards tori. She stuck out her tongue out at him. What do you plan on doing when the baby comes?" Richard asked.

"What do you mean?" Ethan asked.

"Are you and Tori and the baby going to be living in your parents home or are you going to look for somewhere else to live?" Richard asked them.

"Oh..well...We'd love to be able to rent our own apartment but we cant really afford too much." Ethan explained, "And most landlords wouldn't lease to people like us."

"Well, if your parents are agreeable, Jaida and I would like to rent out that apartment behind out house to the two of you." Richard smiled.

"Are you serious?" Ethan asked.

"Very. We've been meaning to rent it out but we'd rather give it to someone we know." Richard told them, "How about it."

"How much are you looking to get for it?" Ethan asked.

"Ten dollars a week." Richard said. Tori's eyes widened.

"You've got to be kidding me. We can't take it that low." She told him.

"No. Jaida and I discussed it, "He said, "Why don't you take the monitor and go home. Go ask your parents and see what they say."

"Thank you so much." Ethan was grinning from ear to ear. Richard laughed as they ran out of the garage.

"Richard, did you ask them?" Jaida came out over the intercom.

"Yeah, babe. It looks like they just may take it." He said.

"Good." Jaida said, "come inside and get warmed up."

"Yes, Dear." Richard closed the garage door and locked it. He hoped Brandon and Andy would allow the kids to take it. It would be such a great experience for them and it warmed Richard's heart being able to help them out.
