"Mama look at spider" Graham said as Nikki sat down on the sofa in the middle of her the twins who were now watching a program about spiders. Nikki grimaced slightly as she spotted the large hairy tarantula crawl across screen and start feeding on a locust, it wasn't that she was scared of the eight legged creatures, she just wasn't fond of them. Shaking her head slightly she couldn't help but smile when she saw how engrossed her children were with the program, small smiles etched their faces as they watched the creature on screen.

"Mummy can we have White Shark?" Edward asked a while later as all three were engrossed in a program about Great White Sharks, the boys grinned every time the shark came on screen and Nikki knew they weren't scared by it, she knew when they were scared. Nikki looked down at her son and frowned.

"A shark?"

Edward nodded and looked at her with pleading eyes as Nikki tried not to chuckle, a large smile broke out on her face and she shook her head.

"We can't have a shark honey"

"Why?" it was Graham who asked this, a cute confused look on his face.

"We just cant" Nikki chuckled and the two boys went to look back at the screen just as the program finished. "Come on then" Nikki said and picked up the television remote to turn the television off "No more television until later"

Harry and Nikki didn't like them watching too much television at one time and preferred them to play in the garden or play in the house, it was better for their development.

Harry was sitting at his desk looking over some tox results when he got a text from Nikki. Glancing away from his computer screen he couldn't help but laugh loudly when he read the message. Sam and Leo who were standing looking at a case file just across the room looked over at him with questioning looks on their faces. Harry chuckled as he text Nikki back then called over to Leo and Sam.

"Do you know where I can purchase a Great White Shark?" he asked them with a smirk on his face "And a pool large enough to keep him?"

Sam and Leo looked thoroughly confused at this point and Harry had to stop himself from bursting out laughing.

"You know I mentioned Edward and Graham liked to watch all those animal documentaries on the television"

"Yes, you were a bit worried weren't you?" Leo asked as Sam nodded.

Harry shrugged slightly.

"Nikki was more than me, but anyway, the twins just asked if we could have a White Shark" he chuckled

"That has got to be the cutest thing I have heard in a long time" Sam laughed

Harry nodded and frowned, he started tapping his pen against the desk nervously.

"Do you think it's okay to let the boys watch programs like that?"

"Are they scared by it?" Leo asked

"No"

"Do they have nightmares?"

"No"

"Do they want to watch anything else?"

"No"

"Well then" Leo shrugged "I don't see any problem"

"But Leo" Harry sighed "Other children their age are watching programs that are suitable for them, normal programs"

"And your definition of 'normal' is…?" Sam asked as she walked over and leant on Harry's desk. The younger man thought for a moment then shrugged and leant back in his chair.

"Oh I don't know" he sighed and threw his pen on the desk.

"It's probably one of those cases where you grow up with it from an early age and your not scared of it?" Sam shrugged and looked down when her phone went off "Excuse me" she walked off leaving the men alone.

"They're fine children Harry" Leo said and placed his hand on Harry's shoulder before turning and walking back into his office.

"So do you think our back garden is big enough for a fish tank?" Harry asked as he stood washing up after dinner and looking out of the window that showed their garden. Nikki frowned and turned away from the fridge where she was putting away some leftover food.

"A fish tank?" she enquired

"Yeah, you know, for the Great White?" Harry smirked and Nikki hit him gently on the arm and giggled.

"Stop it" she whispered and leant up to kiss him "Are you okay with the boys? I'm going to have a bath"

"Okay" Harry nodded as she walked away "Where's Darius?"

"Watching television with the twins" Nikki called back from the living room and Harry leant back from the sink to look through the doorway and sure enough his youngest son was engrossed in the television.

"And he's only just ten months old" he muttered as he dried his hands on the towel and walked into the living room in time to see his youngest son yawn. "Come on you" Harry groaned as he leant down to scoop the tired boy into his arms "Time for a nap"

Darius just yawned again and lay his head on Harry's chest and closed his eyes. Making sure Edward and Graham were okay on their own for a few minutes Harry then took Darius upstairs to put him to sleep. When he came back down again the program that the twins had been watching about some sort of animal was over and they were playing with their toys on the carpet. Walking over to the television Harry turned it off and sat on the floor with the two boys.

An hour later Nikki walked into the room dressed in her pyjamas, her long hair still wet and drying in slight ringlets that Harry found adorable on her and found himself hoping that if they had a girl then she would have her mothers hair. His eyes trailed down to her stomach and he could see her bump from under the loose t-shirt. Nikki saw where he was looking and placed her hand over her stomach, the t-shirt flattening itself and making the bump more obvious. Smiling she walked over and sat on the sofa, her hand still on her stomach. Harry hoisted himself off of the floor and sat next to Nikki giving her a kiss and reaching up to twirl a ringlet of her hair absentmindedly through his fingers.

"Is Darius asleep?" she asked and Harry nodded

"Just after you went for a bath" he replied still focused on the lock of Nikki's hair in his fingers. Nikki suddenly reached out and grasped his other hand in hers and brought it to the bottom of her stomach where she held it firmly. Harry was about to say something but the slight movement under his hand stopped him and his face split into a grin.

"I first felt it in the bath" Nikki told him as he kissed her and nodded "I wasn't sure at first then it happened again"

"Our baby" Harry whispered and Nikki laughed and nodded.

"Baby?" came a voice from the floor and both parents turned to look at the twins who where looking at them.

"Come here" Nikki said and motioned to herself as she bent down and lifted Edward onto her lap, Harry did the same with Graham and Nikki took Edward's small hand in hers and placed it on her stomach. She then did the same with his brother and nearly laughed at the obvious confused look on their faces. The baby moved again and both boys yanked their hands away from their mothers stomach. A look of shock crossed their faces and they both looked at Nikki.

"That's the baby" she told them and Edward hesitantly touched her stomach again and laughed as the baby moved.

Once again yes, I did ask for a shark when I was younger...thinking back on it now I feel like a right twat. lol! :D but unfortunately I didn't get one.
