This is now officially my longest story ever! Seven chapters… that's a little sad, now that I think about it…

Chapter 7
Al and the babies were kept in hospital for a week for observation – the doctors wanted to see if the strange birth would have any strange side-effects.
Finally, they were allowed to go home. Roy once again carried a protesting Al inside and placed him in bed. The second Roy's back was turned, however, Al was out of bed and managed to vacuum the floor just to prove his point before Roy could convince him to go back to bed.
However, now Al had managed to convince Roy that he was fine, Roy was now convinced that Al was up to doing other things as well. Roy proceeded to molest the younger man.
The twins, fortunately for them, slept through the whole thing. Roy and Al eventually fell asleep, exhausted by their activities.
Two minutes later, they were woken by a horrible wailing sound.
"WHERE'S THE AIR-RAID!" screamed a panicked Roy Mustang, leaping out of bed and running around wildly.
Al simply handed him a screaming child. Stopping in his tracks, Roy accepted it. He blinked at the boy, holding it at an arms length, unsure what to do with it.
Al sighed in exasperation. "Like this" he said, demonstrating what to do as he calmed their daughter down.
Roy tentatively adjusted his hold on his son and tried to copy Al.
Eventually, both children had quieted to a merely deafening volume. Presuming they were hungry, Roy hurriedly heated some formula – burning the first batch when he announced that it was taking too long and decided to use his flame – while Al located the source of the problem and changed his already rebellious daughter's nappy.
Desperately sucking on a tube of wasabi in an attempt to calm his nerves – Al had informed him that since he'd bought it, he would have to eat it, and he'd become addicted to the stuff – Roy finally rushed into their bedroom with two bottles of formula. Only to discover Al lying asleep – exhausted - in bed, with their two young demons sleeping like peaceful little angels in his arms.
Setting down the two bottles, Roy quickly grabbed a camera and snapped a picture of the adorable scene. Then, after trying for ten minutes to create a space for himself in his own bed, he gave up, kissed his family goodnight, and curled up on the floor.
Awww, now isn't that just sweet! –Author squeals like the fangirl she is-
Seriously, I love that last part when they're all asleep! I'm a sucker for scenes like that.
Sorry this was so short. They're going to be short until I get help. Anyway, please review.
