CHAPTER THREE:
A week had went by, no more signs of Wanda the wicked women. Fred feared her coming to attack any day, everyday. He never slept peaceful anymore, wondering if she was watching. He didn't want to leave Daphne's side for a moment. Getting rest was ordered over & over by the doctors but the two of them found it hard to do. There was always something that needed to be done. Daphne felt uncomfortable in her own home, scared of every noise & movement. But, today they were trying their best to look past it all, because they're two best friends & they're children were coming home, from their long journey around the country. Daphne fixed the living room neatly.
"Do you think they mind us skipping the Malt Shop trip Freddie?" Daphne asked slowly sitting herself on the sofa.
"Nah, they would probably understand, I mean..they will..as soon as I we tell them. It's not really easy for you to leave home right now. They'll understand, besides I'm getting some pizza for us all. That'll be just as nice." Fred said taking the seat beside her.
"We only found out about all this a week ago, I really wanted to tell them in person, I hope they're not angry." Daphne sighed. Fred put his arm around her.
"Oh Daph, relax. It's Shaggy & Velma, our best friends." He said.
"I can't wait to see Jimmy & Jane!" Daphne said.
"Yeah, I bet they're all grown up now." Fred said.
"Well they're at least a year & two years old." Daphne giggled.
"Ha, right." Fred said. Then the door bell rang. Fred jumped up from his seat. He opened the door to see the tall man & his shorter wife, with one child in his arms & another in hers.
"Shaggy, Velma!" Fred greeted happily hugging them both tightly.
"Like hey man!" Shaggy said back.
"Well, come on in, make yourself at home." Fred said standing out of their way in the door.
"Daphne!" Velma shouted running over to her best friend who was relaxed on the couch.
"Velma, it's so good to see you!" Daphne said. "Awe, & look at the kids! They aren't newborns anymore!"
"No, they've grown up into toddlers!" Velma said.
"They're still adorable!" Daphne commented.
"Ha, thanks Daphne! I'm sure your little one will be too, do you know what it is yet?" Velma questioned. While Shaggy sat on the Love Seat with her & Fred & Daphne on the othe. Fred & Daphne looked at each other & smiled.
"Well..."Fred started. Velma & Shaggy looked puzzled.
"We're not having one..." Daphne said.
"We're having four." Fred said plain. Shaggy & Velma's mouths formed into giant O shapes.
"Three boys & one girl!" Daphne finished.
"Like wow dude! That's a lot! Got any names yet?" Shaggy asked in shock.
"Yep, all four. Tanner, Kent, Holly & Codie!" Fred said.
"I guess your done with kids after this!" Velma joked.
"Oh no, we want to have as many as possible!" Fred said. Daphne held is hand & nodded in agreement.
"Like, wow. Velma & I know Jimmy & Jane are enough for us!" Shaggy said rocking the hyper two year old in his arms.
"You guys bring the old saying "Keeping up with the Jones" to life!" Velma said. Fred & Daphne laughed.
"Since Fred & I never had a "real" great family, we wanna have one of our own. It's always been my dream!" Daphne said.
"You guys are going to need your own TV show if you have anymore!" Shaggy joked. Fred laughed.
"They babies could be here any day now, so that's why we wanted you all to come here instead of meet up." Fred said.
"Oh thats no problem." Velma said.
"And another thing is, last week we found out Wanda is still after Daphne & I..." Fred croaked.
"Oh no, that's awful!" Velma said.
"We're okay, I think." Daphne said, trying to not worry her friends.
"Like dudes come stay at our place anytime you don't feel safe, we got you covered!" Shaggy demanded.
"Thanks guys, it means a lot! She sent us this creepy letter, saying she's been watching us." Fred said feeling the chills run up his spine.
"Like oh boy.." Shaggy said.
"Like Daph said, we're okay, I'm not leaving her or the babies anytime soon. We'll be alright."Fred said.
"If you say so, but if you ever need anything just call us & Mystery Incorporated will be back in bussines!" Velma said. Fred & Daphne smiled.
"Thanks Velms!" Daphne said.
"Well, we hate to rush but we gotta get two little tikes in bed.." Shaggy said.
"Okay, Shags, thanks for everything!" Fred said.
"Anytime, see you all later!" They said leaving. Fred closed the door behinde them. He looked over to his red-head wife who was on the sofa. She was making little scarfs & ascots for the babies. Fred smiled.
"They're gonna be some good lookin' babies thanks to their mommy!" Fred said.
"Thanks, Freddie. I try." She laughed.
"But hey, you look really tired. Something bothering you?" He asked gently sitting beside her. She rested her head on his sholder.
"No, I'm fine, really." She said.
"I know your probably really stressed about all this stuff." He said.
"Just a little." She admited.
"Don't worry about ot Daphne, we're gonna be one big happy family in no time at all. And we'll get Wanda arrested soon as possible. And she'll be locked up for good." Fred comforted his wife.
"Thanks. Freddie...you're the best." She said soflty.
"Nah, that'd be you.." Fred said. Daphne was too tired to fight. She closed her eyes & slowly went to sleep. Fred smiled as he gently lifted her up & carried her to the bed. He kissed her good night. Fred turned and closed the bed room door shut, then walked outside to the front deck. It took a few deep breaths.
"I hope I'm doing everything right...I mean, being a dad to four babies at once, I want to, but I'm a ready for this? All the protecting & care they need? I wish things were simple..." Fred said to himself.
"Mom..Dad..Mr. Blake..Mrs. Blake..I wish you guys were here now, to help us get through this all, to tell us if we were doing this the right way or what. Cause I am so confused, why'd you all have to leave us? Weren't we once your kids?" He mumbled.
"Worried I seee?" He heard a creepy voice from somewhere, Fred raised up & leaned againest the house.
"W-who's there?" He croaked.
"Ooohhh just an old friend. Don't worry Fredrick, you won't have those babies long enough to worry about how you are going to handle it all." A evil voice said back to him. Fred shivered in fear.
"Wanda, I'll get you, & don't you dare even get the feeling about doing something to our children! Or my wife!" Fred shouted angry as he got off the deck to find out where the voice was coming from. It started to thunfer & rain poured down upon him.
"Ha ha ha! That's what you think pretty boy. I'm not Wanda, I'm her helper, & I'm not the only one either!" She laughed evily. Fred caught a glimps off the shadow run by, he quickly ran fast as he could to catch it but then tripped on a flower pot near the deck falling to the ground making a crash sound. Suddenly the front door opened.
"Freddie!" Daphne screamed in fear.
"Daphne, stay inside I'm fine." He said getting up dripping wet from the puddle & rain on the ground.
"What happened to you?" Daphne asked, concered.
"Nothing, nothing at all, I just fell when I came to take the trash out, thats all." Fred lied. "Now come on inside, I don't want you catching something out here.." Fred said pushing his wife into the house, scanning the yard one last time for the person.
"Fred, are you okay?" Daphne asked.
"Yeah, honey, I'm perfectly fine.." He lied once again.
"No, your bleeding Freddie, aww you poor thing!" Daphne cried getting a wash cloth and covering the scratch. Fred felt the sting from the glass pot that his leg fell on, he leaned over in pain.
"I know, it's gotta hurt, shh it's okay." She comforted him, rubbing his head gently. Fred rolled his eyes, barely able to keep them open.
"Thanks Daph, I don't know what I'd do with out you." He manged to say sleppily. Daphne cracked a small smile.
"Oh honey, I don't know what I would do with out you." She said softly. She kissed him gently.
"I love you." He said.
"I love you too, but, you knew that." She said. The two smiled & fell fast asleep in their bed.
