Beck watched from Julian's open bedroom door as Cat was in the old rocking chair, rocking back and forth softly with Julian comfortably in her arms, his eyes heavy. He was listening to his mother's wonderful, comforting voice. Cat was running her fingers gently through his hair, while holding him close to her, and singing softly into his ear.
"I, I will always love
You...
You
Darling I love you
I'll always
I'll always
Love
You..
Oooh
Ooohhh…"
Cat finished and Julian, tiredly, looked up at his mother, even though he couldn't exactly see her with his blind eyes. "Mom, you love me?"
Beck's mind suddenly flashed back to the last father-to-son conversation he had with his deceased son, Nathaniel, about loving everyone.
Cat nodded, giving him a kiss on the cheek. "I love you very much."
"And you love daddy?"
"I do." Cat smiled to Beck, who shed a tear.
Julian faced elsewhere. "Do you love Nathaniel?"
Cat was the one to get teary eyed now. "I did…I did very much, Julian."
Beck walked up to the two and took Julian out of Cat's arms. "Bedtime, son." He said in a whisper as he laid Julian down in his new Car bed. "I love you, Julian." Beck said after he kissed his only son's forehead.
Julian gave Beck a small smile. "I love you more, daddy. And mommy."
Beck chuckled. "Nah, I'm sure we love you way more."
Julian giggled after Beck poked his stomach. "I love you THIS MUCH!" He said, spreading his hands out as wide as they could go apart from each other.
"Trust me, my arms are way bigger, so I beat you." Beck ticked his son a little and then tucked him in under the Superman blankets. "Goodnight, Julian. Don't let the bedbugs bite."
"Don't let the bugs bite mommy." Julian said.
"No one hurts mommy, don't worry." Beck kissed Julian's forehead again and stood up. "See you in the morning."
"Kay-kay." Julian yawned as Beck gently shut the bedroom door.
Cat and Beck walked into their bedroom, and Cat turned to him when he shut the door. "At least he's speaking to us now." Cat said as Beck sighed, walking up to her. "I was getting worried there for a moment."
Beck scoffed. "I was getting worried about the both of you two."
Cat gave him a soft smile as they wrapped their arms around each other. Cat leaned onto him. "I miss Nathaniel and Anthony Ray." She whispered.
Beck nodded. "Me too." He kissed her forehead. "But they're watching over us, and I can hear Nathaniel now. He's probably shaking his head at Anthony Ray and saying that it's "way passed our bedtime" and they're hanging out past their own bedtime."
Cat giggled as they walked to the bed. "I'm sure God gave them a bedtime." She said as they pulled the covers back. "They may be angels now, but goodness, I'm sure they're still too young to be up and about this late."
"Well it is morning somewhere else in the world." Beck pointed out as he laid down next to her, and she curled up in his arms.
Cat nodded. "True." She pecked Beck on the lips. "I love you."
Beck gently rubbed his nose against hers in a cute way. "I love you more."
Cat leaned back and poked his nose. "Don't let the bedbugs bite."
DING DING DING DING DING DING DING-
Beck slammed his hand continuously over the alarm clock on his side of the bed, but it wouldn't turn off. Beck opened his tired eyes in frustration, and Cat groaned. "Damn thing!" He growled as he kept slamming his hand on it.
DING DING DING DING DING DING-
"Beck, stop it!" Cat snapped, wanting to sleep a bit more, putting the pillow over her head. As Beck pulled out the plug of the alarm clock, Cat's eyes widened and she sniffed out, sitting up. "WHAT IS THAT SMELL?" She screamed out as she pulled the covers off her and ran to the bedroom door.
Beck quickly rolled off the bed, slamming hard onto the wood floors below. "Ow!" He groaned, as the alarm sound was louder as Cat opened the door. "Cat-"
"BECK! FIRE! FIRE!" She screamed over and over, and Beck jumped to his feet, scrambling to her. Cat was in Julian's room, who was sitting up in his bed, crying his eyes out. Cat grabbed him and held him. "I have you, I have you." She whispered loudly as her ears were ringing from the fire alarm. "BECK!"
Beck came in, coughing. "There's a way to get to the front door!" He yelled, motioning for Cat to follow him. Once they were together, Beck put a blanket over Cat and Julian. "Stay close to me, Cat!" He yelled and led her down the weak stairs. "Quickly, quickly!"
Once they reached the last few steps, Cat and Beck screamed bloody murder when the stairs collapsed after they were off. Julian was screaming even louder than them combined. Cat rocked him back and forth as Beck looked for a way out. "I have you, baby, I have you!" She cried out.
Beck looked around, losing his senses, but his eyes widened even more when he saw a figure. "HEY!" He yelled out. Cat looked where he was and gasped. "LADY!" He yelled again, but the woman grinned at them.
She looked to be in her late 20's, like them. She had blonde, curly hair, but it was up in a messy bun. She was around 5'7'' and with a slim figure. She was dressed all in black with sunglasses on. She snorted. "BURN IN HELL, BASTARD!" She screamed out, and then broke the nearest window, jumping out.
Beck blinked. "How do I keep pissing people off and not realize it?"
Cat punched his arm. "BECK!"
Beck took her arm with a bruising grip and tried to lead her to the front door, but the 2nd floor suddenly collapsed right in front of them and Beck covered Cat and his son, debris fell on his back, but he didn't care. Cat is NOT dying tonight! I'm not losing three sons and a wife! Beck screamed in his head as he practically dragged Cat towards the backyard.
Cat was coughing up a lung, while trying to cover Julian's mouth and nose so he wouldn't breathe in the smoky hair too much. "Beck, do something!" She screamed.
Beck growled. "Working on it!" He grabbed a chair and slammed it on the back glass door, shattering it to the ground. He realized Cat and himself were barefoot. Before Cat could step out, he stopped her and immediately picked her up and into his arms. Cat gave him a questioning look. "I don't want your feet to get cut." Beck said in a strained voice, the glass digging into his own feet. Once they reached the backdoor, Beck put Cat down and unlocked it, leading them to the front yard. Beck looked back and saw the house they called home since they moved back to Hollywood 3 years ago and saw the flames consume it. And it almost consumed it along with it. Beck thought with a horrid image of seeing his family covered in flames, causing unimaginable pain to their fragile bodies.
The firemen lead them away and to an ambulance. Beck was separated from Cat and Julian, but as long as they were taken to the hospital as well, that was fine by him. "They're going to the same hospital?" Beck asked as they made him lay on a gurney.
A paramedic nodded, putting the breathing mask on Beck's mouth. "Yes, they are. We promise. They're safe."
Beck nodded, letting unconsciousness take over.
Oh COME ON, Beck, don't pass out! Jeez, don't you know no one is EVER safe? His hair is bigger than his brain, I'm sure. Who agrees?
Alright guys, the minimum reviews need are 10, so let's get them ONE MORE TIME! Thanks again! No flames still…trust me. Don't.

PREVIEW FOR CHAPTER 6: The Fire Breathes
SLAM!
Cat screamed as they all were pushed towards the front of the ambulance with a violent shove as someone hit the back. "What happened?" Cat asked the driver.
The paramedic with her opened the window that headed towards the front. "Rick, what's happening?"
"Mike, there's a car behind us all in black, the windows are even tinted!" The paramedic named Rick said from the driver's seat. "They just rammed into the back!"
SCREECH!
Rick gasped as he saw the black tinted vehicle speed by them on the freeway. The window rolled down to reveal the blonde haired woman stalking Cat and Beck with a gun in her hands, directed towards him. "OH MY-"
BANG!
