D POV

"Ok, you guys ready to go?" I asked as I held open the door waiting for Abby and Alex to follow.

"YEY!" Abby jumped out the door, "We're going to the park, we're going to the park" she chanted. I smiled as Alex followed trying to chant the same but didn't succeed with the pacifier in his mouth. I chuckled and looked up seeing Ve and Michelle standing there with Paul and Ben.

"You guys have a good time"

"Yeah… Bye!" Ve said turning her back towards me with a snappy attitude as Ben and Paul disappeared to his room.

I'd promised to watch Abby and Alex cause Rose had to work this weekend. Ve was home with Ben and Paul since they didn't want to go to the park with the rest of us. Michelle came over since apparently she didn't want to be alone with neither the little ones nor me.

I was living fine with me not really hating me but not really loving me either. I guess she was a bit better after she met my sisters. I don't want to know what they told her about me but for as long as I don't need to hear her nagging on me of snapping I would be fine!

I was a bit worried about later tonight though. Rose was coming home with take out and then we would watch a movie together. She's really wanted this "family" night tonight and she wanted me to stay with them. I didn't mind at all, I loved hanging around Alex, Ben or Abby. Of course Rose was my main and most powerful reason to be there but still, I admit that I love those kids to.

"C'mon Dimitri! Don't walk so slow" Abby said far off ahead jumping and skipping. I chuckled, "I'm not slow"

"Yes you are slow Mcslowsson" She said teasing. I narrowed my eyes, as I got closer, "You did not just call me Mcslowsson" I dared.

"I did, what you gona do about it?" she asked raising a brow and putting her hands on her hips. Right at that moment I could bet my car and my flat that she had the resemblance between both Rose and I. I blinked before I started chasing her towards the yard. Alex was somewhere in between us so I grabbed him in my leap so he jumped up on my shoulders and we started chasing Abby. She was screaming and laughing as she ran zigzag between the trees and bushes through the park.

"You'll never catch me!" she laughed excited as she looked over her shoulder at me still running forward. I realized to late she was heading right towards a tree.

"ABBY LOOK OUT!" I yelled slowing down holding my hand up. Right then she turned her head forward right as she smashed into the tree. She fell down backwards down flat on her ass as she started crying. I lifted Alex off of my shoulders and hurried over putting him down next to Abby. I kneeled next to her lifting her up in my lap hugging her tightly.

"Abby, Abby sweetheart are you ok?" I asked feeling both nervous and frantic at the same time.

"I-it hurts" she sobbed having a hard time to breathe. I put her down in front of me moving her hair away from her face so I could see the damage. She had a small cut on her forehead and some scratches on her nose.

"Don't worry sweet-"

But right as I tried to calm a crying Abby, Alex started tearing up too. I looked frantically between them.

"Alex, hey what's wrong?" I asked stroking his hair. He just leaned forward crying even more moving his tiny arms around me as he climbed into my lap. Abby also started clinging on me as she sucked on her thumb. Sweet lord, I'm not trained for this!

"Hey, hey, hey now" I said calmingly pulling them slightly away so I could see their faces.

"Everything's fine, I'm here." I said stroking both of their cheeks, "Don't worry, it'll be alright" I smiled. "First, let's go fix Abby's scratches ok? Get a band aid to ease the pain," I said, "Then we go buy something sweet to cheer both of you up, how does that sound?" I asked. Abby was only sobbing now and Alex was fully calmed down though he could use a wipe to dry off his cheeks. Both of them nodded and I straightened up helping them both on their feet.

"C'mon there's a bathroom this way." I said taking each of their hands in mine.

On the way there I found a small ice cream bar, I knew the guy from earlier so I sat Alex in a high chair so he could fall off and told the guy to give in anything he wanted while I used his bathroom to get Abby cleaned up. Alex was a bit cranky off me leaving but I told him we'll be back in no time, I kissed his forehead and right after that a big bowl of ice cream – more like an ice cream bomb – appeared in front of him and I was long forgotten. I took Abby to the bathroom and put her up on the sink.

"Why did you leave Alex over there?" She asked as I brushed her knees off and rolled up my sleeves so I could get down to business.

"I thought ice cream might cheer him up and I know the owner from earlier so, he's in good hands!" I told her with a smile.

"Good" She agreed, still looking sad.

I soaked some towels with hot water before I started washing all the blood away on her nose.

"This might sting a little," I warned before I lightly dabbed her forehead.

"Aow" she flinched and I could see tears starting to build up. Her bottom lip was slightly wobbling as she sobbed, "I whish mommy was here"

"Hey" I murmured leaning in slightly, "Everything's going to be fine, I won't let anything happen to you ok? Nothing"

"Really?" She asked with a small voice.

"Really, I won't let anything happen to you. Not now and not ever! You can always come to me if you need anything Abby"

"Can I have a hug?" she asked after a few moments of silence. I smiled, "Of course you can"

I moved my arms around her tiny body pulling her in for a tight embrace.

"Thanks daddy" I heard her whisper. I froze. Daddy? I closed my eyes and took a deep breath.

Daddy. She saw me as her father figure. The one parent she never had and she wanted me to be that. Could I be that? Would Rose want me to be that?

I pulled away slightly looking into her eyes, "You're welcome" I smiled. She smiled back, "You can try that again," she said pointing on her forehead. "I promise I'll be a good girl"

My smile grew, "You already are Abby"

When she was cleaned up and ready we headed back to Alex and what a sight. His whole face was covered with ice cream and he had this ridiculous grin on his face like he was the king of the world. The funny thing was that I could help but to laugh.

"Alex!" Abby laughed as she sat down on a chair next to him.

"Yeah Alex!" I chuckled. The guy behind the disk said, "The boss told me to give him whatever he wanted and that you'd pay later"

"That's for sure, Abby order what ever you want but don't tell mommy!" I said shooting her a look. She smiled her eyes shining "I can keep a secret" She started telling the guy how much ice cream he should put in there and how big amount of chocolate sauce. These kids sure can eat!

"Wow, you're a real mess" I snickered as I grabbed a few napkins to clean Alex up.

"Ice cweam!" he yelled in pure joy. I laughed and cleaned up what I could. These kids truly are a handful, just like their mother.

After a few hours of playing in the park we made our slow back home. Abby was chatting about the new swing and how high she'd gotten on it while Alex was yawning, I bet the little guy needed a nap so he could stand a chance on the movie later tonight.

"Are you staying tonight?" Abby asked as we crossed the road, almost home.

"Yes, Rose's coming home with food soon and we're going to watch a movie" I said looking down at her.

"Really?"

"Yeah, any special wishes?" I picked up Alex who was dead on his feet as Abby went on about some movie about a princess and a frog.

"Didn't we see that one last time?" I asked.

"Yes, but it's a good movie. You can't just watch a good movie once"

"And how many times have you seen it?" I smiled.

"Many…" she said smiling angelic up towards me. I chuckled, "We'll talk about it at home"

"Ok" she smiled taking my hand in hers. I could see the house now and I was a bit surprised when I saw Rose car home already.

"MOMMIES HOME!" Abby cheered and Alex suddenly woke up when he heard the word mommy.

"Mommy?" He frowned looking at me and I smiled, "Well I'm not mommy, mommy's home"

"Mommy's home!" he smiled suddenly wide-awake. I let Alex down so he could run for the door when we were on the driveway. The door was open I guess she just got in.

"Mommy, mommy, mommy!" Alex yelled as he ran for the door.

"Are you going to stay over Dimitri?" Abby asked as we walked hand in hand after Alex.

"I don't know, we'll see how far it goes" I smiled down at her.

"Can you tuck me in?" She asked tilting her head a bit to the right and she was absolutely adorable.

"Sure" I squeezed her hand. Right as the both of us looked up I saw Rose standing on the doorstep Alex in hand smiling towards us.

"Mommy!" Abby smiled running towards her hugging her lower waist.

"Hey honey" She smiled leaning down giving her a hug still having Alex in her arms. "What happened to you nose sweetie?" she asked kissing her forehead before straightening up and looked at me.

"We had a small miss hap, she's fine" I ensured her. She smiled again believing me. She looked down on Alex and then up again, "I just need to go and put him down for a nap, see you in the kitchen?"

"Sure" I said Abby taking my hand leading me inside. And just my luck, guess who's in the kitchen? Ve.

"Hey Ab" she said her back towards us. She turned around, "Whoa, what happened?" she asked looking up at me when she saw Abby's Band-Aid on the forehead and scratchy nose.

"I ran into a tree" Abby snickered, "When Dimitri chased me"

"He chased you?" she asked frowning.

"Yeah, I called him Slow Mcslowsson" She snickered holding her hand over her mouth.

"Hey" I chuckled I lifted her up and started to tickle her, "Don't call me that"

"It's t-true!" She laughed as I swung her around in the air.

"Hey!" Rose voice came from behind us I stopped still Abby in my arms. "You've had him all day, isn't it my turn now?"

"Nope," Abby said moving her arms around my neck, "You've had him from the start he's mine now"

"Nu-uh don't think so little lady! Why don't you go pick a movie while Dimitri and I set up the food?" She suggested.

"Ok!" Abby smiled, I let her down and she was off. Rose came over to me with a proud smile on her face, "That was easy." I said raising a brow.

"Kids are easily sidetracked" She smiled as her hands landed on my chest slowly tracing up.

"I think you're easily sidetracked!" I teased as I leaned down nuzzling her nose.

"I think you're both insane" Ve interrupted and both of us looked up at her. "Oops sorry, cock block?" She raised a brow.

"Actually yeah, so let your momma do her work while you go check on Abby" She had on of those you better not fuck with me smiles. Ve made a vomiting face as she left the room.

"So, where were we?" She smiled. I leaned in, "Right here"

I captured her lips with my own holding down a growl realizing how long it's been since I've had her to myself. Her lips were so soft under mine as I held her tighter. We broke the kiss to later come together, feeling her tongue along my bottom lip felt like heaven in the middle of the week. I held her tighter against my body, as the kissing got deeper.

"Mommy, mommy, mommy, Mommy!" Abby came running from the hall and just in time we broke the kiss. She stopped when she saw us arms in each other's arms, "Were you two kissing?"

"Yes" I said

"No" She said at the same time. Our eyes met and we shared a smile before Abby got the attention back, "What is it honey?" Rose asked relaxing as I took a relaxed hold around her resting my head on hers.

"I found a movie" Abby smiled.

"Good, is Paul still around?" Rose asked looking from Abby to me.

"Karolina picked him up an hour ago I think, Ve knows"

"Ok then, Abby can you go tell Ben and Ve to come and get some food before we start the movie?"

"OK" she smiled running off shouting for Ben. I smiled pulling away slightly, "So what did you get for food?"

"I picked up some tacos from Taco Bell, the kids love it"

"Sounds good" I smiled leaning in giving her a long kiss before we started setting up the food. And right as we were done the kids came running. Well, Abby and Ben came running, Alex waddling along behind them and Ve was holding his hand.

"Dimitri!" Ben smiled running towards me. I picked him up and gave him a hug, "Ben" I ruffled his hair, "One of my favorites" I smiled.

"I thought I was your favorite?" Abby asked pulling my in my jeans I smiled down at her about to tell her something but Ben caught ahead of me, "No I'm his favorite!"
"But he said I was-"

I caught Abby off before a fight could break out. "Hey, hey, no need to fight! Ben you're my favorite boy and Abby's my favorite girl" I said and both of them seemed happy.

"And where does that leave me?" Rose asked leaning against the bench arms crossed over her chest.

"Sorry mommy" Abby said patting her arm, "The favorite girl spot is already filled"

I could help but laugh at this Abby truly is wonderful!

"Hey! Mommy will not be replaced" She said playfully angry. I put Ben down walking over hugging her from behind "You come into different category" I smiled kissing her cheek.

"Really? And which one is that?" She looked at me over her shoulder. I leaned in giving her a kiss planning on telling her later when she kids weren't around.

"Could you please stop drooling over the food?" Ve complained, "It's enough that I'm Ok with that you're all over each other, but I take food very seriously"

I chuckled, "Just like your mother" I was only teasing and Rose just smiled giving me a kiss before we started loading out plates for movie night!

While watching as the prince gave the princess her wedding kiss I couldn't help but to look over at Roza. To my surprise she had this glow in her eyes. That small smile that could make you go: Oh man, I wish she were my girlfriend!

I looked away when Ben snuggled into me like I was a pillow as he fell asleep before the movie ended. I smiled as he hugged my arm like a stuffed animal as he was sweetly sleeping in my lap. Ve just left as she got a phone call from Michelle about something apparently, To-die-for important! Girls…

When the credits started rolling I could hear Rose making sounds as she stretched out trying not to wake Abby as she slept in her lap.

She met my gaze and smiled, "Let's put these once away and before we hit the bedroom"

I smiled as I saw Alex lying between us, flat on his stomach with some drool on his cheek. I put Ben over my shoulder bending down to get Alex.

"Do you want me to help-"

"It's fine" I smiled as I had Alex in my arms. She took the lead down the hall towards all their rooms. I went into Ben's room first since Alex was sleeping so heavily there wasn't a big shot that he would wake up. I removed Ben's clothes and put his jammies on before I put him into bed. I smiled as I saw him sleep I kissed his forehead before I turned off the light letting him sleep. I took Alex in my arms and right as I stepped out of Ben's room there was Rose. She was wearing that beautiful smile again, "That was very sweet of you. Putting him to bed and all"

"I don't mind" I smiled, we both headed towards Alex room next to Rose's to tuck him in. I closed the door to his room and the house fell quiet. Now it was just us.

"So um, do you want to stay over or something? I think I have some room left in my bed" She smiled looking down and then up at me again. I tried holding back a smile, "That's a very tempting offer, hard to say no to"

She moved closer, our hands found each other and they laced together. "Then don't say no"

She got up on her tiptoes and I met her lips when she couldn't reach longer. I slowly let go of her hands, letting my fingers trace the skin on her arms before my hands got tangled up in her hair. The kiss got deeper. Her hands started tugging at my shirt and it was hard not taking her right then and there.

Then there was someone clearing their throat. And not just someone, someone named Veronica. We broke apart quickly.

"If you're even thinking about having sex with me in the house I'm seriously going to kill you both!" She said arms crossed and a fierce look in her eyes. Rose moved a string of hair behind her ear, "Sorry Ve, I uh we didn't think that far"

She sighed when she saw how guilty we both looked, "Ok, fine I get it! You're trying to catch up all the missing moments-"

"I think I've caught up by now" Rose mumbled

"-you haven't had in a while, but could you please do it behind closed doors? And silent?"

I took Rose hand and smiled, "Sorry Ve, I'm having a hard time containing myself when I'm along with your mother"

She held her hands over her ears, "EUGH! Don't say that to me, I'm going to have nightmares for days and I'll never be able to look you in the eye again"

I could tell Rose also had a hard time holding back a laugh.

We said our good nights and headed for her bedroom.

"Do you mind sleeping in boxers? I don't think I have anything that fits you…" Rose said eyeing me and then towards her closet.

"Do you mind me sleeping in boxers?" I raised a brow at her with a small smirk on my lips. She tugged at the hem of my shirt, "You know I rather have you in nothing at all"

"Sounds perfect, I like that look on you to"

She grinned as I leaned down to give her a kiss. Teasing must be our main thing, cause we were good at it!

After we brushed out teeth, washed off and a lot of kissing in between we were under the covers closely snuggled up next to each other half asleep.

Rose sighed, "I could get use to this"

I breathed in her sent as I nuzzled her neck, "This as in me in your bed?"

She smiled, eyes closed "Yes as you in my bed, with me in there to of course"

"Of course" I smiled and kissed her shoulder. "You should sleep, you're dead tired"

"But I don't want to sleep" she said turning in my arms, facing me burying her face in my chest.

"You're starting to sound like Ben or Abby" I teased.

"Uh-huh" She mumbled. I smiled kissing her forehead. "Love you"

"You to" she hummed.

I woke up by something poking me. I blinked but it stopped so I closed my eyes again trying to fall back asleep. Then it poked me again and I could feel someone pulling the quilt. I sat up, Rose was sleeping peacefully next to me, curled into a ball. I rubbed my eyes with my fist before I looked over to my side seeing a small form standing next to the bed. It was Ben. I sat up straight turning my light on, not wanting to wake Rose up.

"Ben? Hey, how are you?" I asked my voice sounding a bit hoarse. He held his pillow in hand as he looked up at me, "I can't sleep…"

Then I remembered, "Nightmare?"

He nodded looking down. I smiled holding my hands out, "Come here"

He looked up coming forward so I could lift him up into the bed. I put him down pulling back the covers so he could get in. "You can sleep here"

"Thank you Dimitri"

"No need to thank me, the more the merrier " I chuckled. "So what did you dream about?" My mother always used to talk to me while I had a nightmare. Talking about a bad dream could make you get over it and face what was scary with it.

"There was a huge monster chasing me, it looked like a huge frog and it came jumping after me. Always landing on me" he said looking scared.

"Really? Well that wasn't very nice"

"No and then there was this princess that thought that I was a frog and tried to kiss me…"

"Did she?"

"No, I woke up" He said. I smiled, "Well lucky you to wake up before she kissed you, that wouldn't have been pretty"

"I know, germs!"

I laughed, "Yeah, germs. Do you think you can sleep now?"

He nodded. We lay back down, he scooted closer and I put my arm around him. "Night Ben"

"Night Dimitri"

When I was back to sleeping I felt my quilt moving. First I thought it was just Ben moving around but when I squinted through my eyes I could see he was perfectly still holding my arm in both of his. I turned on the light again half sitting up, not wanting Ben to wake up to and there was Abby. She was trying to climb up the bed but it was a little high.

"Abby?" She stopped climbing and looked up at me. "What are you doing?"

"I can't get up… I'm to short" she said her bottom lip getting big. I smiled, "Can't sleep?"

"No…"

I loosely removed my arm to get free from Ben and held my arms out, "Here" I said and she came closer. I moved Ben in so he was closer Rose, I followed and put down Abby on my other side. This bed is seriously huge, there was still ton of space over!

"Do you want to sleep here?"

She nodded crawling under the covers. She sat there looking at me. "What is it?" I asked curious.

"You broke your promise"

"I did?"

"You didn't tuck me in…" she said looking down on the quilt. I felt a bit bad when she looked so sad, I had promised her I would.

"I can tuck you in now? Better late then never"

She smiled, "Ok" she lay down as I pulled back the covers. I pulled up the covers tucking them in so she would keep warm. I bent down moving hair out of her face, kissing her forehead. "Good night Abby" I smiled, "I love you" slipped out but I didn't regret it. Not for one second. Cause I did love her.

"Night" she smiled. I lay down between her and Ben turning off the lights. I put my arm around her and Ben caught a hold of my arm again. I was close to sleeping when I heard Abby say, "Night Daddy"

R POV

I was slowly coming back to reality after a long and good nights sleep. I hadn't woken up once and I felt rested and well. Dimitri's presence is worth gold I can say. Then I noticed his arms weren't around me, holding me tight against his warm chest. I opened my eyes but closed them again cause it was so light. I stretched out after lying in a stiff pose.

I rubbed my fist in my eyes sitting up blinking a few times as I checked the watch. It was a little bit past nine as I looked over at Dimitri. And what a sight, Dimitri was laying in back with one arm Abby who was lying half on top of him leg around his stomach clinging to his body. On his other side was Ben having Dimitri's arm in an iron grip as he slept deeply. All their faces was relaxed and then looked so cute. Warm, fuzzy and just so sweet.

I got out of bed grabbing my camera feeling a need to take a picture. I smiled as Dimitri was slightly snoring into Ben's hair. I took the picture, checking if it was Alright, I looked back at the scene. This is what I always wanted. Something I always wanted to wake up to. A family scene I've always pictured in my head.

A real family.
