***Sorry I haven't posted in a while, I just had a really hard time figuring out what would come after the birth of the twins, so this is what I came up with. (With the help of Quigglestein too)
"Lucy, what in the world is wrong?" Ike asks me, giving a questioning look. He goes to the nursery as I shrug my shoulders and prepare a bottle for the twins and let Cole dig in our cherry jar. He's the only one that likes them that I know of; we don't know why either, to us, they are disgusting. Ike goes up to his little girl and calms her down as she explains in her outside voice. She's in the nursery and I'm in the kitchen on opposite sides of the apartment; that's what you get for being a newsie, you get to be loud.
"Kill it, Kill it, I want it gone now." She whines, motioning to what seems to be her right.
"We aren't getting rid of the twins Lucy, you're going to have to get used to it." He says. I come in and slowly pick up a restless Bella as she dives deeper into my arms. I whisper 'hush little baby' to her as Ike comments we'd have to be rich o get all of the kids all of what's in the song.
"I don't mean the twins Daddy," she whines, "there's a bug under my bed. Kill it."
"Use your manners Lucy, say please." He scolds.
"Ike, just kill the stupid bug." I sass, not knowing it.
"Hype," he sasses back, "use your manners."
"Ike, kill the damn bug." I half shout separating each word as Lucy takes my side.
"Hey now, no cussing in front of the kids," he cautions me. As he directs his attention back to Lucy I mimic him when he's not looking. Lucy tries hard not to smile but Ike knows something's up as I'm still mimicking him as he turns around. I immediately stop and apologize, then when he turns back, I'm mimicking him again.
"Okay, fine. Lucy," he directs, "point to where the bug is."
"Daddy" she giggles, "I told you, it's under my bed."
"Right," he mutters, moving the bed slightly causing the bug to make a mad dash for safety as Lucy and I squeal as it rushes past. He carefully walks towards it, cornering it as we know Daddy's doing to squish it. "Oh come on, it's just a little roach." He sighs, he stomps on it harshly. "There, gone, dead, nonexistent, deceased, and lifeless, now resting in peace."
"With its intestine on your shoes," I comment, making a sour face.
"Your mean," Lucy giggles.
"One showed up Ike," I say semi playfully. "There could be more."
"Come on, Sketch and Davey are waiting for us in the Park, we'll be late if we don't leave soon." He smiles at me as I put Bella back. "Oh, Lucy, Star's coming by to take care of you and Cole. The twins will be at the Landlady's."
"But Daddy, I left Mr. Snuggles over there." She whines.
"Okay little lady," he says sternly, "you know that you're not allowed to take Mr. Snuggles anywhere but here; plus, you just lied because Mr. Snuggles is sleeping with Cole." He gently takes it out of the bear out of Cole's crib and gives it to Lucy, whose face lit up like a Christmas tree. There's a knock on the door, which means Star is here as Ike calls me to the bedroom. I tell her about mimicking Ike as she laughs.
"Hype, get in here," he shouts.
"I'm coming," I yell back.
"He sounds mad, are you sure you want to go tonight?" Star questions.
"He's just upset because we're going to be late." I mutter.
"Hype, hurry up." He yells.
"I said I'm coming," I shout. "He hates to be late, which I kind of understand, and he's upset because I said the word 'damn' in front of the kids. He thinks they will pick up on it.
"They may," she starts.
"Hype, get in here now." He shouts his loudest.
"Ike, shut up, you're going to wake Cole." I yell.
"Then get in here," he retorts.
"I look fine already," I chided.
"Then be at the door in five minutes," he shouts.
"Then hurry up will you?" I yell. I glance over at Star who gives an uncertain look. "He'll be okay later," I mutter, mostly to myself. I lead her to the nursery as Lucy greets her somewhat coldly. "Star, who do you want to take care of, because the others are going to the landlady's." I say.
"I kind of want to take care of the twins," she says uncertainty. "Can I?"
"Sure do what you want." I say, picking up Cole. I ask Lucy and her to follow me to the door to say our goodbyes. Apparently, Ike wanted us to color coordinate with each other.
"Aren't we a great couple?" I smirk at him, taking his hand.
"Match made in Heaven," he mutters, mostly to himself.
"Okay, bye, have fun, and don't get to intimate tonight, I don't want to have to take care of a fifth kid in the future, "Star smiles, pushing us out the door. As we step into the street, I swear she locked the door preventing us to come back. We wordlessly walk to the Landlady's with Lucy and Cole and she opens the door gratefully.
"We'll be back in three hours maybe four," I think.
"It's fine, Hype, really, have a great time." She smirks at me.
"Bye." Ike thanks her as we walk to the park.
"Lucy's right, your mean," I playfully punch him in the arm as we walk.
"Whatever," he mutters playfully as he side hugs me as we walk.
"Oh look," I point out, "there's Sketch and Davey, at least I think."
"It is, Sketch is wearing blue," he smirks.
"Everything she wears is blue," I laugh, "it's her favorite color."
"You look great in blue too," he whispers.
"Did I ever tell you how much I love you?" I smile at him. He shakes his head as my jaw drops a little. "It's because I can't, there isn't one word in the universe that describes how much I love you."
"Your sweet," he smirks, pulling me in for a long lingering kiss.
