Can We Go?

"DANTE!" Three voices shout and I stumble out of bed. I can tell that one of them was Claire and the other was Wesker, but the third voice I was lost on.

I rub my eyes and head out of my room, hoping to whoever that Dante hasn't burnt down anything or damaged it. I follow sounds down stairs to the kitchen and let out a sigh of relief when I see that Dante is just covered in syrup and waffles ( his teeth have come in) and he is just sitting in his high chair. I go to step into the room and then I notice the other person. It was Abri, who never yells so the sound of her voice wasn't recognized.

I walk further into the kitchen, grabbing a rag and wetting it in the sink, I bring it over to Dante and start to wipe his hands and face off. When he is as clean as he can get I take him out of the high chair and bring him upstairs to take a bath. It only takes a couple minutes since he doesn't really like them and therefore just sits there while I clean him up and wash the syrup out of his hair. After that I get him another set of cloths and we go back down stairs so I can eat some breakfast.

Claire and Zhane are talking while Wesker cleans off the tray. Abri sits at the table finishing up her cereal just as her two older brothers walk into the kitchen looking a bit sleepy. They sit at the table and Claire offers to get them some cereal.

" That would.... be nice." Dimitri replies in between a yawn.

Dominik just nods his head and Claire grabs two bowls and two spoons which she sets down on the table to grab the milk and cereal. She makes it for them and they tell her thank-you, she puts the stuff away when she gets done. I pour a cup of coffee and set Dante down on the floor. He stands up and starts to walk around the room, and for right now he is behaving himself.

" You weren't kidding about the whole trouble-making thing." Claire says jokingly.

Wesker shakes his head and I just laugh softly." Yeah, he is a handful. But I wouldn't have it any other way." Claire nods her head and then absently rubs her stomach.

I turn to Wesker then, " what are we going to do about space?"

" What do you mean?"

" We are running out of rooms, and wouldn't it just be easier to move back to Denver and get a nice home there?"

Out of the cornor of my eye I can see Claire brighten up at that idea but Wesker doesn't really seem to like it.

" Chris you do know that... That isn't exactly possible right?"

" And why not? I mean you've been in hiding for the past couple of years. They aren't searching for you relentlessly as much anymore."

" That may be, but I still stand out." That is all he says when he leaves the kitchen and heads downstairs. I can tell he isn't in a very good mood.

Claire waits till he closes the door to the basement before saying anything. " If your really serious about moving I'd keep bothering him about it."

I nod my head.

Later during the day when it's just me and Wesker ( Claire and Zhane have taken the kids to the park) I bring it up again.

" We just disguise your features. Hell we've already done it with your eyes." I cross my arms over my chest and block his only exit.

He sighs, " Christopher, I don't want to live in hiding for the rest of my life. And... no matter how much I may... care for you. We are not moving back to Denver."

" God darn it Wesker I say we are." I'm starting to raise my voice at this point but I don't really care.

" Christopher, are you really that willing to risk the lives of your children?" He snaps back, and underneath the green contacts I can see the red glow of his eyes.

"... We need a bigger house." I say after a beat.

" Not in Denver."

" We can make it work, the kids already know they have to be careful. I want this, I needit. I gave up a lot for you too."

He laughs sarcastically, " like what Chris?"

" My old life, my job, I gave up on stopping you." I start counting off my fingers.

" Fine, Chris. I'll look, but I'm not guaranteeing you anything." He sort of shoves past me when he leaves the room. And even though I have won this match there is a pit in my stomach.

The next day and Claire has to leave, so we spend the rest of the day just hanging out until the very last moment. I haven't told her that Wesker said we could look in Denver for a home. The kids all say bye and wave to her as she pulls out of the drive way and her and Zhane head back on home. Dante is in my arms but as soon as the car is out of sight he is struggling to get down. I notice that he is only in a a t-shirt and a diaper so I head back inside before letting him have free reign. My other three kids follow along and then race up the stairs to play a game, Dante tries to follow but even with the virus he just can't quite maneuver as well on the stairs.

" Where do you think you are going?" I ask him with my hands on my hips.

He turns and sits on the third step and gives me a huge smile, he raises his hands and opens and close them signaling for me to pick him up.

" Dante, there is no need for you to go up there. Let's go bother your father." I pick him up and change direction to down stairs rather then up them.

When we reach the last step I can barley contain my youngest son due to his squirming around in my arms, so I put him down and off he goes. He stays on his hands on knees and crawls over to Wesker so fast that he looks like a blur.

" I have a feeling that he is the one that we are going to have to be careful about."

Wesker continues to type on his laptop which would make it appear that he has completely ignored me but I know better. Dante reaches Wesker and pulls himself up by his pant leg and gives him a smile. When Albert doesn't look down at him right away he gets impatient and starts to bang his hands on his knees and the smile falters. Still no acknowledgment, which angers Dante further. He slides down and then brings his face closer to his ankle and before I can do or say anything to stop him Wesker is flying out of his chair and glaring daggers. I try to stifle a laugh under a cough and reach down for Dante.

" That wasn't right Dante, you can't bite people." I tell him.

He looks down and places a finger in his mouth. I look to Wesker and notice him lifting up his pant leg and then the small trickle of blood from a bite mark that is already healing, can be seen.

" I wasn't aware he was teething." He snaps slightly.

I shrug " I don't think he is, you just didn't notice him quick enough."

Wesker doesn't say anything but lets out a sigh and then resumes his spot back on his chair and then finishes up typing.

Two weeks later, and no closer to finding a house in Denver I am awaken from a nap- oh crap it's already starting- by Abri.

" Daddy, daddy, daddy!" She repeats over and over while shaking my shoulder.

I blink open my eyes and look up at her bright young face and red hair. " Yes baby girl what can I do for you?"

" Daddy we are in October right?"

I nod my head slowly " yeah why?"

" Well on TV, like the Disney channel ( A/N: I don't know if they get that out there or not) they are all talking about Halloween. So I went on line and looked it up." She gives me a look.

I kind of figured where this conversation was going from the start but had hoped it wasn't about this. "... and what did it say?"

" It said that kids dress up in costumes and go from house to house saying 'trick or treat' and then people give them candy. Well I wanted to know why can't do that? Dominik and Dimitri say that they have never gone trick or treating either." She puts her hands on hips and gives me a somewhat sad though still intimidating look.

I sigh and push myself off the couch, stretch and then scratch my head in order to stall. " uh well kiddo we just never really had the time. Besides I am not sure if they really celebrate it out here."

" Can't we go out to Aunt Claire's then?" I look down at her which wasn't such an smart idea. She has a pleading look on her face.

I try several times to form an answer before giving up. " I'll ask your father and see what he says alright?"

Her face brightens up and from the doorway I can hear two distinct male voices cheering.

XxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxX

Wesker, surprisingly, is not downstairs but is in fact in the kitchen making sandwiches for the boys. When he is done and hands it to them they rush upstairs to continue their game.

I watch him clean up and wait for him to get done before I bring up the subject of Halloween.

" Yes Christopher?" He turns around, leans against the counter and folds his arms over his chest.

" Abri, and I'm sure Dominik and Dimitri as well would like to go trick-or-treating. I told her that I didn't think they did that out here, which is when she brought up going out to Claire's."

He is quite for a moment, he blinks. " What is the question exactly?"

" Well would go out there with us?"

He sighs before pushing him self up off the counter and heading past me out the door. " We've avoided this holiday for near six years, how did she find out?"

" Wesker they are geniuses, it wasn't going to take them very long to find out."

" I suppose there is no other choice then to say yes."

Again you can hear three distinct voices from upstairs cheering and running around excitedly. Focusing, I can hear Abri rush into Dante's room and excitedly telling him the good news. Which is when the twins rush down the stairs and into the kitchen, grins plastered on their faces.

" Is it true?" Dominik wears a hope full look that is directed at Wesker.

" Do I lie?" He gives them both a serious look, the boys turn to one another and their grins widen.

I can't help but letting a slight grin slide onto my face. Abri then comes into the kitchen holding Dante who is grinning and giggling even though he doesn't have a clue as to what is going on.

" When are we going to look for costumes?" Abri asks.

" Can I call Aunt Claire?" Dominik wonders.

And before Dimitri can overload my with a third question I hold up both my hands.

" I don't know when we will go looking for costumes, and yes you can go call Aunt Claire, and what did you want?" I answer, going from each kid.

" When is Halloween?" Dimitri asks, the only one who seems calm. The other three, well Abri is dancing with Dante, and Dominik is jumping around excitedly.

" October 31st buddy." I tell him running my hand threw his hair as I leave the kitchen and head upstairs, all of a sudden I became very tired.

XxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxX

About a half-hour later Dominik rushes into my room to tell me that he spoke to Claire who was very excited and would be happy to take us in for Halloween.

" That's great." I tell him with a smile as I try to wake up.

" I'll let you get back to your nap." He then quietly leaves the room shutting the door behind him.

It isn't long before I start to drift off again, but before I can return to sleep fully I am startled awake by a sharp jolt. I sit up and there on the side of the bed, trying to climb up the blanket, is Dante. He has a mouth full of the blanket that was previously on my toe, which if I were to look it would probably contain the same mark that he had given to Wesker earlier.

" Hey there buddy." I lean over the edge and pull him up onto the bed.

" Daddy!" He squeals and quickly settles next to me, and just as fast as I was he is asleep.

" That is a good idea." I kiss the top of his head and close my eyes as well.
