~…Baby Joker…~

"Say ah."

"No."

"Black, say ah."

"No!" Black angrily shouted, puffing his cheeks up as he glared at Lucian sitting in front of him, holding a spoon full of mash potato. "I don't want to eat!" He started whining and began pulling his hair from the frustration of having to be forced to eat.

He loves Lucian's food a lot, but he doesn't want to be treated like a baby. He's a grown man and it's embarrassing for him, especially when White's workers were all looking at him. He would rather be in his prison and not in the circus, but White had to do his work as the circus master. However, White wasn't even working like he was supposed to. Instead he was playing around like a little baby – well, he is a baby – but still. Black thought that White had lost his mind from being turned into a baby, because now the little circus master was swinging back and forth twenty feet above Black and Lucian without anyone looking after him.

"Whee~!" White giggled happily, not feeling any fear that he could severely injure himself if he let go of the rope at any time. Unlike Black, White was perfectly okay being in a baby form. He doesn't have to worry about work, he can have fun and relax, and his charm of being so cute makes Lucian hug him more than when he was an adult.

Black shook his head and rolled his eye, wanting to smack White for being so stupid. He really needs to find a way back from the two of them to return to their adult body.

"Black." Lucian spoke, the spoon she was holding moments ago was now gone. Black looked at Lucian from the corner of his eye, and when he saw her looking at him with loving smile, his clock-heart sped up a bit.

"W-what?" Black quickly looked down, afraid of what Lucian might do when she smiles like that to him. When she smiles so lovingly at him, there's only two reason why: one, she really loves him, or two, she's planning something that will make him eat his food. "Don't smile at me like that, i-idiot."

"I won't force you to eat, but I know you're hungry. You've been whining about me making you lunch an hour ago, so I did." Lucian leaned forward to Black and lifted him out of his baby chair. She placed him careful on her lap and pulled the bowl of mash potato closer to her. "I know why you're being stubborn and not wanting to eat, and I'm sorry about that. I won't treat you like a baby, okay."

Black hadn't heard any words Lucian was saying the moment he was placed down on her lap. He stared blankly at his food in front of him, his mind thinking about how soft Lucian's chest are against his back. His body automatically leaned back further and the scent of strawberry coming from Lucian made him relax, and he started smiling like an idiot.

I love this feeling. Black thought, his chubby cheeks forming a cute blush.

Lucian looked down and when she saw Black smiling like he was thinking of something perverted, she sighed. "Black, are you listening to me?"

"Uhh, yeah." Black responded back. What was she saying again? Something about food, right? Yeah I think that's what she was saying.

"Oh you." Lucian sighed once again, but she soon smiled at how adorable Black is. "You weren't even listening to me, you little pervert." She softly pinched his adorable cheeks, making Black grunt.

"I'll eat, but you have to let me sleep after this." Black said already picking up his spoon from the bowl.

"Okay." Lucian smiled and gave a peck on his cheek. "Thank you for eating."

"I want to feel you when I'm sleeping." Black said, sounding like it was more of an order than asking for it.

"What?"

"I meant this." Black raised his head up and started rubbing the back of his head against Lucian's chest. "They're soft, like pillow. I want this as my pillow."

"You little pervert. Okay fine." Lucian placed her hand on Black's head and turned his head back to his food. "Now eat."

"You know." Black spoke as he opened his mouth and shoved a spoonful of mash potato inside. "I've felt your breasts before and I've even played with them, so there's point of you calling me a pervert. I'm your boyfriend, so don't be embarrassed." He didn't know Lucian's blushing face behind him as he said those words.

"Y-you freaking pervert! Don't say that out loud in here! There are workers here!" Lucian was about to shove Black off of her, but then she remembered that he'll only throw a tantrum and use his baby form against her later on. Black and White may be cute as a baby but they're still evil.

"Hn." Black snickered and looked back at Lucian. He smiled mischievously, seeing her blushing face. "Want some of my mash potato, honey?" He asked, raising his spoon up to Lucian. "They're good."

"No thank you!"

A few minutes later of peace and quiet, Lucian thought that everything was alright. Black was eating quietly, White was still on the swing, and the workers are all gone, leaving the three of them in the circus.

Just then, White stopped swinging back and forth and his eye widened before returning back to normal. But a few seconds later, he started to whimper and when he looked down, he forgot to breathe for a moment. He was scared, the ground below him was so scary that he started to shake.

"Luciiiaaan!" White called out, tears welling up in his eye. "Waah!" His grip on the ropes tightened, and he started to choke from his crying. "Lucian!"

"Okay, okay. I'll be there. Black stay here." Lucian said without looking up at White, since she thought that he was only playing around.

"No, you're not going anywhere." Black pouted and grabbed Lucian's shirt. "Stay here."

"But Black…"

"Stay!"

"Luciiaan!" Lucian immediately looked up and when she saw White crying, she quickly stood up with Black in her arms.

"Black, White is crying-"

"No, stay here!"

"Waaahhh!" White cried as loud as he can, shocking Lucian. "I want my Lucian!"

What in the world!? Why are they acting like this all of a sudden!?

"White, hold on! I'll be there! Don't move, and calm down! I'll be there!"

"I'm scared!" White removed one of his hand from the rope, trying to reach out to Lucian. "I'm scared!"

"No, no, no! White don't let go of the rope!" Lucian frantically shouted and she ran up to the ladder. "White, please grab the rope!"

Hearing her shouting and screaming only made things worst. Because now it was Black who started crying.

"What's wrong with you two?!" Lucian asked no one as she tried to calm Black, rubbing his back. "Black, please don't cry. What the heck is going on?!"

Moments ago, they were perfectly fine, but now they're acting like….like they're actually real babies.

"Waahh! Lucian!" White burst out into tears, seeing that she was still not with him.

"I'm coming, White!" Lucian said and she looked at Black. "Black, please, stay here for a bit." She bends down and pulled Black away from her, but this only made Black cry louder than White.

"Nooo!" Black shouted, tears covering his eye as he tried to latch himself back to Lucian. "Noooo! Don't go!"

"Black, I need to get White. Please."

"Noooooo!"

"Lucian!" White started moving, leaning down even further. He just wanted to be with her that he didn't even notice that he had let go of the rope, sending him down to the ground.

"WHIIIITE!" Lucian screamed, her heart beating rapidly. She needs to get to him fast or else he'll die. Just then a familiar figure rushed past her, catching White in time before he hit the ground. "!"

White cried and cried as he latched himself to Rein who was panting from his run. He heard the crying from the outside of the circus so he came running to see what's wrong, and when he got inside he saw White falling out of the swing.

"White!" Lucian quickly ran towards Rein with Black still in her arms, tears falling out of her eyes.

White looked up and when he saw Lucian, he reached out his tiny arms. "Lucian!"

"Oh god!" Lucian quickly took White from Rein's arms and hugged the little red-headed in her right arm. "Oh god." Her legs gave out and she fell on her knees, but she never let go of the two in her arms. "…please…don't take them away from me….."

At this time, Black had stopped crying and was just looking up at Lucian with teary eye. As for White, the near death got him shaken to the bone. He doesn't want to look at the ground, he doesn't want to see Black, and all he wanted was to be in Lucian's arms.

Rein slowly walked up to Lucian, not sure if he should try to comfort her or just leave them be. But seeing as the two red-headed won't do anything to him if he touches their Lucian, he went down on his knees beside her and started rubbing her back. "Lady Lucian…" He softly whispered. "They are fine, Lady Lucian."

"Rein…" Lucian spoke, her voice a little hoarse from her screaming and crying.

"Yes, Lady Lucian?"

"Black and White…" She slowly raised her head up, her face wet from her tears. "They're-"

"Let us talk about this later. For now, let us go back to your room with Master Joker. It'll be better to talk there than in this place." He got up on his feet, reached his hands out towards Black. "Allow me to carry Master Joker."

"Okay…" Lucian removed her arm around Black and Rein carefully picked him up. Black didn't say a word as he buried his face on Rein's chest.

"Master Joker…?" Rein tilted his head, a bit surprised that Black would act like this in front of him. "What's wrong?"

"Tired." Black said.

"Tired. I see, do not worry, I will bring you to Lady Lucian's room now." Rein smiled a bit as he rubbed Black's tiny back.

"Hm."

Lucian looked at Black with worried eyes. He was definitely not acting like himself, and neither was White.

"Lady Lucian."

"Yes?" Lucian looked back up and she blinked when Rein touched her face, wiping the tears from her right eye.

"Let me wipe them from you. Master Joker doesn't like to see you cry." Rein smiled softly, his thumb stroking her cheek. "Come." He grabbed her right hand and pulled her up on her feet.

"Thank you…" Lucian whispered quietly, her eyes gazing down at White who was now looking back at her. "You scared me back there, White." She pulled her hand out of Rein's hand and wiped the tears away from White's face. "But I'm glad you're safe." She leaned down and softly kissed him on the head.

"Wow! Your babies are really cute, Lucian!"

A cheery voice said. Rein and Lucian both looked towards the entrance to see Ace grinning like an idiot. "You even named that baby your holding in your arms the same name as the ring leader!"

"Ace." Lucian looked down and saw White burying his face on her chest.

"Scary." White quietly said.

"No, he's not scary, White. He's a friend." Lucian said and she looked back at Ace. "What are you doing here?"

"I got lost! But anyway, is that you and Joker's babies?! Cause they're really cute! They even look like the two of them!" He got lost trying to get to Joker's territory. He was supposed to show up three time changes ago, but he ended up in Hatter's territory.

"Um…no."

"Oh, I see! They're dolls! Can I play with them?! Please! I want to play with them! They're so cute, and they look like baby koalas!"

"Make that man stop." White started tearing up again because the annoying idiot wouldn't stop talking and it was hurting his ears.

Black grumbled and he turned his head back over his shoulder. He was about to fall asleep too until the brunette showed up and started yaking. He glared dagger towards Ace only to be deflected by Ace's idiocy mind. He doesn't know this man, but he already hates him.
