"Where is the Bride and the Maid of Honor!?" Kitty yelled
"Maybe they got held up." Jean suggested
"By What!? The boys have been here since seven this morning it's almost nine and they haven't even checked in yet." Kitty said until a knock on the door grabbed her attention
"We're here. We're here. Sorry next time Nina shouldn't book the hotel especially if she's gonna book one across town." I said carrying in the dresses
"You weren't complaining about it last night when you finally got some sleep." She said
"Just go get ready slow n' slow even on a day like this you still find away to get on my nervous." I said
"Yeah I know. Isn't it wonderful?" She asked walking to the bathroom
"I swear that girl is a headache." I said
"Well you guys have forty-five minutes to get ready if you want one last drink as an optional on the market woman." Kitty said
"Only forty-five minutes to get ready?" I asked
"The boys have been here since seven and the wedding starts at eleven thirty so...yeah get ready cause the guys and the guest can't wait forever." Kitty said
"Figures. I wonder what the boys are doing now." I said
~Meanwhile on the other side of the church~
Kurt Spike and Scott playing the piano: We are the champions-my friends
And we'll keep on fighting till the end
We are the champions
We are the champions
No time for losers cause we are the champions...
Mikey and Trent: Of The World!
Everybody: OF THE WORLD!
"Cheers!" Mike said raising his glass along with everybody else
"In a way we are champions all of us." Scott pointed out
"How so?" He asked
"Oh yeah. You wasn't around when we took down the Brotherhood." Kurt said
"How did you guys do that?" He wondered
"With a little help from Senator Kelly." Spike answer while Mike stared at him with an eyebrow raised, "After we rescued him from Stryker's clutches eight years ago he's ideas on mutants changed. He still saw some mutants as a threat but he was willing to work with us to capture them." He explained
"Only Magneto and Mystique is out there but it's only a matter of time before they get captured too." Scott said
"Last time I heard about Senator Kelly he was resigning." Mike said
"You gotta talk to Alex about that cause she's not telling me anything about their meeting a few weeks ago but she did come home royally ticked off." Trent said
"Any clue why?" He asked
"Nope. She just kept saying it was a waste of time and effort but she was glade I was there." Trent replied
"Anything else I missed out on?" He asked
"Marko and Laura got engaged." Trent said
"I'm dating Jean." Scott said
"Logan and Storm are running the school since the professor's health took a turn." Kurt said
"And I think that's it...Oh! Hank is working with the President to send a new bill of rights through congress to protect mutants from accidental incarnation." Spike said
"And that means?" Mike asked
"Any mutant under the age of thirteen and has no control over their powers can't be held responsible or liable for any damages so they won't go to jail. If you're over thirteen with powers 4 times out of 5 you clearly knew what you were doing and ads for Xavier's school are everywhere so they could have came forward and asked for help." Trent explained
"Why thirteen and under?" He asked
"They're kids unlike teenagers they're not doing anything on propose. They're scared alone and afraid more importantly they lose control easily especially if their powers are triggered by their emotions." Trent explained
"Yeah that makes sense." Mike said
"Hey guys fifteen minutes." Kitty said phasing through the walls
"Alright fellas let's go." Scott said getting up
"You guys go up ahead I gotta talk to the dog over here." Trent said pulling Mike closer to him
"Alright guys." Spike said closing the door behind the group
Mike lightly pushed Trent away, "What is it man?" He asked
"You know I'm proud of you right? You went to rehab seven years sober and you made things right with Nina." He said pulling out two mini beers, "So I think you deserve a little something." He said offering one to Mike
"What are you trying to do make me relapse?" Mike asked
"It's non alcoholic it just looks that way I swear." He said shaking the bottle
"You know this wedding could easily turn into funeral if you're lying to me." He said grabbing the bottle
"Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Just drink up little boy." He said drinking out the bottle
Mike stared at the bottle for a moment before drinking it and putting on his coat, "Ready?" He asked buttoning it up
"Yeah. Let's go." He said throwing his coat over his shoulder and walking with Mike out the room
Everybody in the alter was chatting among each other between the pews and it seems like everybody had a new lease on life take Marko and Laura for example. The two haven't been apart every since Marko got his nanites removed and was told he was a mutant but unlike Trent who ages slowly he was immortal so they literary have a forever. And another thing is that they have never looked happier. Rogue have been seeing this guy named Gambit for the pass few weeks and they have been getting close ever since they met in New Orleans. Warren has been dating Elsa Hosk a former Victoria's Secret Angle model gone Broadway star. They actually met in London but they started talking after Nina decide to give Michael a second chance. After a while Kitty stepped in and everybody got quiet as the grooms walked in one by one aligning to the left until Michael stood in front of Pastor.
"You sure about this bro?" Trent quietly asked
"I want this. I want her and only her." He replied
Trent nodded with a smile on his face while Michael was inhaling and exhaling a deep breath of air before nodding to Kitty. Kitty gave a thumbs up before signalling the organist to start playing. All the bridesmaids aligned to the right before the organist started to play Here comes the bride. Oddly enough Amanda volunteered to be the flower girl at the ceremony but since she bonded with Michael so well it wasn't a surprise when Hank told us that she wasn't even Max's daughter. She and Sonny was one of the first people to test Stryker's nanites so both kids developed a form of memory lost. Sonny had short term memory loss that he quickly recovered from while Amanda had long term memory lost that would come and go but all the memories of her family erased as she processed new ones. Eventually she was curious of where her family was until Stryker made Max take full responsibility for her and raise her to be his prodigy but that didn't work out. Anyway as Amanda led the way for the bride Michael started to get nervous until his wife to be stood in front of him.
"Dearly beloved we are gathered here today to witness these two in holy matrimony. Mister Michael Jamal Holmes and Miss Nina Brown have written their own vows but before we get into that. If anybody have any objections is to why this couple should not be wedded speak now or forever hold your peace." The Pastor said
Everybody took a second to look around the room before looking at the main person who would say something once Warren realized everybody was staring at him he grabbed hold of Elsa's hand and smiled at her before looking at Nina lightly nodding. Nina lightly nodded back before directing her attention back on Michael. They both looked at the Pastor before he lightly nodded as if he was signalling the couple to continue.
"First of all you look absolutely breathtaking ummmm...I am completely lost for words right now if you can believe it." Michael nervously started with a slight giggle before he felt Trent grabbing his shoulder
"Breath and focus." He quietly said before moving his hand and watching Michael take his advice
"I could say a million things about how humble I am not only to God but to you a well. Looking back at everything I've done to hurt you I realized just how much I don't deserve you. I don't deserve your kindness your friendship nor your forgiveness but you still cared for me and my well being even though I didn't do so when it came to you. When I thought I lost you for good I lost apart of myself but not just any part your were my better half. You made me sane you clam me down and despite everything I've been through you were my brightest light in the darkness. I am yours completely mind body heart and soul and without you I lose everything. I vow as not only your husband but as a man to always love you despite our differences. To be there for you for whatever and whenever you need me. And to be just as loyal and faithful to you as you are to me." Mike said staring deeply into Nina's eyes
"Michael being with you is like...well I can't put it in words. Cause I knew when I first met you I wanted to be with you. You were the perfect gentleman and even though you were friends with the most questionable people." Nina said glancing up at Trent while he rolled his eyes, "You were kind and sweet and gentle and respectful. You showed me that you cared about me in the deepest way possible so falling for you was easy. Trusting you was easy but staying loyal to you...that was hard part. Because you have put me through some the best and worst moments of my life. And I wouldn't change it for anything because it taught me so much. Alex would ask me all the time why do I love you and I would avoid answering not because I didn't know what to say but it was so clear it scared me. I love you because I can't help but feel like I'm complete." She said with a soft smile
"After that there's nothing to be said. The rings." The Pastor remained
"Oh yeah!" Trent said snapping out of his daydreaming to pat himself down for the ring
"Can you speed this up?" Mike quietly whispered to Trent
"I can't find it." He replied
"What!? You better find that ring or so help me I will..." Mike started before Kurt cleared his throat while holding up a better ring
Mike stared at it while Kurt nodded with approval and slowly gave to him. As soon as Mike grabbed hold of the ring he released a sigh of relief before looking back at Nina and sliding it on her finger.
"I now pronounce you Mr. and Mrs. Michael Jamal Holmes you may now kiss the ohhh." The Pastor announced while Mike and Nina was already kissing and everybody was clapping
~ Later at the reception~
"I can't believe Jean caught the bouquet." I said
"Forget that. What's up with you?" Nina asked
"What do you mean?" I asked
"Every since you and Trent got back from China you have been acting...strange." She said
"How so?" I questioned
"Weeeeeeeeell...you're tried stress out moody you're hair is falling and you haven't been on your feet you're eating everything in sight and throwing it back up so don't even try to lie about it tell when did you know and how long?" She listed off
"What are you talking about?" I wondered taking a sip of water
"You are pregnant right?" She asked while I spit out my water
"I...umm...Aaaaaa Kitty! Isn't it time for the bride and grooms first dance?" I asked desperately changing the subject
"Yeah. It is but the DJ decided to drink on the job and spill beer on his laptop. I can't find a replacement in time." She replied coming from backstage
"I'm sure Trent can help out." I suggested
"Yeah riiiiiiight it's not like he's just gonna hop on stage and perform with Scott Kurt and Spike and do one of the most romantic songs he can think of." Kitty said seconds before hearing a squeaky noise coming from the stage microphone
"Sorry bout that how's everybody doing?" Trent asked over the mic fiddling with his guitar
"Never underestimate my husband." I said while Kitty snapped out shock and pushed Nina towards the dance floor where Mike was waiting on her
"We're gonna talk about this!" Nina said while running into Mike who happily caught her
"Well hello beautiful." He said with a smile on his face
Nina couldn't help but blush and hold onto him while a spotlight shined down on them.
"Ready guys?" Trent said while Kurt on drums Scott on bass and Spike on scales all nodded, "One two three four." He counted off

After awhile it seemed like Trent's attention was shifted off Mike and Nina and was placed on me as I watched the new Mr. and Mrs. swayed to the song. Trent noticed this glow around me and couldn't help but smile. Nina kept a tight grip on Mike while he refused to let her go. Trent performed a few more songs before letting the guys take over eventually Kitty found an old radio and a few DCs replace the live band and while everybody was enjoying the celebration Nina was determined to get an answer out of me. So she patiently waited to trap me after I ran to the bathroom for the fourth time that day.
"Okay. Are you gonna tell me?" Nina asked waiting on the opposite side of the bathroom door
"Tell you what? That you're crazy?" I said flushing the toilet
"Fine. Since you're not gonna tell me I'm just gonna ask him." She said headed towards the exist
"Wait! Don't please! He doesn't know!" I yelled before realizing what I said
"What was that?" She asked
I sighed and sat down on the counter, "I've known for almost two months now since than I've been trying to hide it from him." I said
"Hide it? You and Trent want kids right?" She asked
"I do but...I'm just not ready to tell him alright?" I asked
"Okay. But if you're not gonna tell him I will you can't hide this forever even though it's already obvious." She commented
"Girl please I'm barely showing." I said
"Tell that to the 5 plates of food and the 8 slices of cake you ate in the last 15 minutes." She pointed out
"When are you planing on ratting me out?" I asked
"You have until the end of the wedding to tell him yourself or I will." She said heading towards the exist
After Nina said that I started to freak out so I spent the rest of the celebration trying to keep them as far away from each other as humanly possible but with everybody asking me about my odd behavior it was easy for Nina to pull him aside until Mike would pull her aside. Trent wondered why I was avoiding Nina and dragging him along with me but he didn't question it after all, 'Happy wife happy life' was his new motto. Eventually during the last dance of the night me and Trent was pulled on the dance floor along with a few others and everything was going good until I saw Nina mouthing the words; tell him obsessively till Mike would look at her.
"Hey. What's wrong you seem distinct." Trent said
"Ummmmmmm well you know how I've been really sick lately and tried all the time right?" I asked
"Ummm yeah." He replied
"And you know my mood has been bipolar like lately right?" I asked
"Where are you going with this?" He asked before I whispered it in his ear while he tensed up like it surprised the life out of him, "H-...h...how long have you known?" He asked
"I've known for two months now, I didn't tell anyone but you know how nosy sissy is and if I didn't tell you by the end of the wedding she was gonna tell you." I said glancing away
"A...are you sure?" He nervously asked
"I'm positive after the tenth test having Hank look me over along with three different doctors it was crystal clear." I said
"Wait a second if you've known for this long why did you wait this long to tell me?" He asked
"Because I was scared to tell you. I didn't know how you would react." I said
"How I would react? Babe this is...this is...this is GREAT! HEY EVERYBODY WE'RE HAVING A BABY!" Trent happily shouted out loud
As soon as Trent said that All the attention was redirected off Nina and Mike and was placed on me and him. Everybody crowded us with questions Kitty was already coming up with ideas for the baby shower while everyone else was wondering who's gonna be the godparents. I felt like everybody was backing me into a corner until Trent pulled me out the huddle. There was nothing but pure joy in his eyes and one of the biggest smiles on his face as he spun me around lightly giggling until he stopped to kneel down and put his ear on my stomach to feel closer to the growing infant. I couldn't help but smile watching him before rubbing my fingers through his hair.
"God I hope she's just like her mother." He softly said
"I don't think our son likes being called a female." I said
Trent looked up at me, "This is my little girl can't you tell?" He asked getting up
"Yeah we'll see father of the year." I playfully mocked
"Father? Yeah this does mean I'm gonna be a father does it? I'm gonna be a father! I'm Gonna Be A Father!" He happily yelled endlessly running around slowly getting less and less excited, "I am going to be a...faaatheeerrrr." He slowly said before freezing up
"Trent? Are you okay?" Nina asked
Trent was frozen in place with look on his face like he was staring into the future and by the way his smile slowly faded away it wasn't good. Nina continued to mess with the human statute while I tried to get her to stop.
"What's wrong with him?" She asked poking him
"I saw this coming that's why I wanted to wait." I said
"CONGRATULATES BRO! You finally did enough damage to get Alex knocked up." Mike said before playfully patting Trent's back causing him to fall face first on the floor, "What the Heck?!" He yelled
"Oh thanks a lot Michael you shattered my husband." I said leaning his head on my lap
"Well my bad I didn't know he was going through a crisis." Mike replied warping up some ice in a towel and handing it to me
"He is not going through a crisis." I said grabbing the ice away from him and putting it on Trent's head
"Sissy he hasn't moved for a solid 15 minutes straight, clearly he's going through something." Nina said
"Oh shut up you two." I said leaning closer to Trent, "I know how you feel especially with the situation with our families but we're not our parents and despite all the crap Robert tried to say about you I think you're gonna be a great father. I know you're scared I am too but that doesn't mean we can't work together to raise this child together. I'm gonna let you freak out picnic go through this...episode so you can pull yourself together to help me raise this baby cause you vowed that you wouldn't leave my side good or bad and besides your son needs you." I said
"I told you this is my little girl why can't you see that?" He asked with a smile
"Cause He has been putting me through so much crap it remains me of you." I said
"Haha still cracking jokes." He replied
"I just call them how I see them." I said still patting ice on his head while he giggled eventually making me laugh too
"Are you guys done drama royalty? Cause if you haven't forgot today is My wedding day." Nina reminded
"Yeah yeah yeah HE is done." I said
"Me?! What about you? Hiding secrets and crap." He relied
"Yeah. So? We're getting life lessons from the human statute now?" I asked
"You wasn't talking this much trash during our honeymoon." He said before I covered his mouth
"Shhhh. Whatever happened in Japan stays in Japan." I said trying my hardest not to blush at the memories replaying in my head and even though I had his mouth covered I could still feel that devilish smile creeping on his face as he lightly felt around my wrist
"What do you think happened on their honeymoon?" Nina wondered
"The exact same thing that's gonna happen to you." Mike replied before glancing over at Nina who was staring at him, "I hope you like handcuffs." He mumbled quietly enough for her to only hear
After the reception Mike happily carried Nina to the car meanwhile Trent's fatherly instincts had already taken over.
"Hey good luck dealing with that for seven more months!" Nina yelled from the car
"Whatever good luck with controlling your dog for the rest of your life!" I yelled watching her leave with Michael
"So what now?" Trent asked
~Seven months later~
It was the middle of the night a couple was sound asleep in bed until a loud ring coming from the phone sitting on the dresser slowly woke them.
"Uuuuuuuuugh. Mikey get the phone." Nina groaned placing the pillow over her head
"It's probably nothing let it ring." Mike muttered under his breath
"But that's the third time something must be wrong." She replied
"At 2:35 in the morning? What could have possibly gone wrong?" He asked
"Just answer it maybe they'll stop calling afterwards." She suggested
"Fine." Mike said with a sigh before picking up the phone, "Hello?" He muttered still more asleep than awake
"Hey it's Trent are you guys busy?" Trent quickly asked
"Yeah. We're busy trying to build a flying fucking rocket car to Pluto at 2:35 in the morning. What's up? Need a ride?" He sarcastically said
"I can't talk to yo slow ass while you're like that pass the phone to Nina." Trent said
"Yo bae it's for you." Mike said pulling the pillow away from her to give her the phone and curling back under the covers
Nina sighed deeply and rolled her eyes before waking up a little, "Hello?" She softly said
"Code...Red." Trent calmly said
"WAKE THE FUCK UP!" Nina yelled flying out of bed to cut on the lights
"What the fuck bae!? Come back to bed cut off the lights!" Mike yelled pulling the covers over his head
Nina quickly got dressed and pulled out a duffel bag that was sitting in the closet, "Mikey I love you but you gotta get up." She said trying to pull him out the bed
Mike sat up but as soon as Nina let go of his arms he fell right back in bed. Nina sighed before going around to her side of the bed and kicked him out so hard he landed back first against the closet. After five minutes of him complaining another five minutes for him to get dress and a fifteen minute drive to the hospital Nina basically dragged him in with her.
"Alexis Jordan Garcia maiden name Davenport. Where is she?" Nina asked at the front desk
"You can't go in there unless you're a family member or a relative." An uptight nurse said
"I'm her sister! You gotta let me in!" She yelled
"According to our records Mrs. Garcia doesn't have relatives so no you're not allowed in the back." The nurse replied
Nina inhaled a deep breath, "Okay. Not allowed right?" She asked with a slight giggle before hopping over the desk trying to reach to the nurse while Mike held her back, "Bitch! You betta be lucky he's holding me back or that would've been yo ass you high class none nursing ass thotful Slut!" She yelled kicking at the desk while Mike carried her off
"If you don't clam yo ass down before you get us thrown out." He said sitting her down in a chair
"But she didn't have to give me a fucking attitude." She said
"Hey. Let yo man handle this alright?" Mike said confidently
"Oh like you can do any better?" She said
"I got the best of best but I still trick the rest." He said with a smirk
"Fine but five minutes." She said
"I'll get it in half that time." Mike said walking to the front desk
After a few seconds talking to Mike the nurse seemed to be more at ease. She was smiling laughing and even flirting with him playing no mind to the wedding band that was around his finger or the fact Nina was staring at them. Two minutes later mike came back with not only the room number I was in but the nurse's number as well.
"Here babe you can burn it later." He said giving the card to Nina and leading the way
Outside the room Trent was in scrubs pacing back and forward in front of the door like he was guarding it, "Holy shit you guys made it." He said with a sigh of relief
"Why are you outside the room?" Mike asked
"Yeah. You should be in there with her." Nina added on
"I was waiting on you guys to show up." He said
"Did we miss anything?" Nina asked
"Nope. She's only a few centimeters for now but I needed to get my head together so I came out here." He said
"Wait...are you...scared?" Mike asked
"Man Hell No!" Trent lied
"Than take your ass inside or get out my way!" Nina said forcing her way inside
"What the..." Trent started
"She's been like this since you called her." Mike said
"TRENT!" I yelled sitting up in the bed
"Holy shit was that a demon?" Mike asked
"She's been like that since 1:55 this morning when her water broke." Trent said speed walking inside
"Shit." Mike muttered following up behind Trent
When Mike came in Trent and Nina was trying to calm me down and even though it made me feel a little better that everybody was there the contractions felt endless. After awhile the only change in them was it went from barely bearable to feeling deadly. I tried everything to ease the pain from changing positions to thinking of anything to cause a disaction. But it wasn't working even a double dose of epidural the pain was still there so when it was time to push I would be lying if I said I was ready. With each push I know for a fact that I crushed Trent's hand made Mike deaf and Nina was actually smart enough to keep her distance but the pain was driving me insane.
"Okay just one more big push." The doctor said
"You hear that just one more push come on and give me my little girl already." Trent said excited of what's to come before I crushed his hand again
"You See What You Do To Me You Fucking Asshole!" I yelled squeezing his hand until it broke unaware that I was pushing at the same time
"You did it!" Trent yelled hearing the baby cry
I instantly laid back in the bed trying to catch my breath and relax knowing that the sharp razor blade like pain had ceased for a moment. I was so weak and exhausted I couldn't even hear anything anymore I hardly felt anything anymore. I just wanted to rest so when I closed my eyes thinking I was getting some sleep I was really slipping away.
"Alex? Alexis? Wake up." Trent calmly yet nervously glancing at the heart monitor slowly decreased until it became a long steady straight line, "Alex? Alexis this shit isn't funny anymore wake up...please? Alex? Ba-babygirl?" He said checking for a pulse realizing I wasn't faking it
"Mike grab him." Nina said
"ALEXIS!" Trent yelled while Mike quickly pulled him out the room to make space for the other doctors to rush in and take there places
"Take care of my sister." Nina said to one of the doctors following up behind the guys
~Meanwhile in the lobby~
"You gotta chill out Bro." Mike said sitting in a chair watching Trent pacing back and forward from the first row of chairs to the last
"Chill Out!? What the fuck do you mean chill out?! You just saw that shit! Dude I can't raise this baby by myself. Just look at how fucked up my life is already I can't drag a baby into it. Alexis was the only thing that was good and innocent in my life and now she's Gone. Why the fuck this always happens!? Why every single time I have something good in my life it's always taken away!? Why the fuck does it always have to be ME!?" Trent yelled throwing a chair across the room against the wall and forcing himself to sit down with his face covering his face, "I can't raise this baby...not without her...not by myself...not alone." He muttered under his breath
"Trent get up and go see her." Nina said
"What?" Trent asked slowly looking up to see Nina in front of him
"Go see your daughter." She repeated
"Why should I? The best thing for her is to get adopted." He replied before she slapped so hard it left a hand print of the right side of his face before pulling him on his feet
"Listen up you fucking idiot if Alexis is gone than she just left a Huge part of herself here with you and even though you think you're not ready for this you're not going through it alone we're here too if you lost your wife than I just lost my sister the one woman on this entire fucked up earth that had my back since we were kids but do you see me bitching about it No! Cause I know she wouldn't give in so fucking easy now if you don't grow a pair of fucking balls and go see the daughter YOU wanted or I am gonna drag your ass there by your damn ankles now MOVE!" Nina yelled kicking Trent in the butt to actually make him walk forward
"Why and how are you so clam about this? And don't give me a bull shit lie I want the truth." Mike said
"Because my sister tells me everything so when she told me that she was having problems during her second trimester we decided to plan for the worse. She knew Trent was gonna flip out like that so she made me promise that he would spend time with the baby before making any irrational decision like letting a former drunk and a shopaholic raise their child. Even though Trent isn't the most perfect guy she knows he love her enough to pass it onto the baby especially if the kid is the spitting image of her." Nina said
"Alexis Garcia?" A doctor yelled out grabbing everybody's attention
"Yes. Yes. Right here! Is she gonna be alright?" Nina asked
"I was aware that there was three of you here for her." He looked around slightly confused
"The father went to go see the child." Mike replied
"Ah. Well of course..." The doctor started before yawning a little, "Excuse me. After she delivered the baby the placenta was taking most of the nutrients out of her body and was causing internal bleeding. We managed to remove the placenta through surgery and got her in a stable condition. She going to stay here for a few days to make sure nothing else effect her health but until than she just need some rest." The doctor said
"And what about the baby?" Nina questioned
"She's in the infirmary still getting processed but in my professional opinion she seems healthy you having nothing to worry about..." The doctor said before receiving some papers, "As a matter of fact she's perfectly fine you can go see her if you want." He said glancing through the paperwork nodding his head in approval
"Thanks doc." Mike said
"Yes. Thank you for the great news." Nina added
"No problem. If anyone of you go see Mrs. Graica you have to keep quite and let her recover peacefully and I also have some paperwork the father needs to fill out. Excuse me but duty calls." The doctor said rushing by the help whoever was next
"Let's go find Trent." Nina happily said
"Agreed." Mike replied letting Nina lead the way
Meanwhile on the other side of the infirmary Trent was nervously standing down the hall from the infant care center trying to convince himself to go see the baby but every time he would go near the door the nurses would bring in a new child and cause him to panic. Eventually he sat down beside the room door with his head in his hands asking himself what should he do now until he heard a familiar voice.
"Hey kid. How you been?"
"Marino? What are you doing here?" Trent asked
"I'm here to see my first grandson. What about you?" He asked stirring up a cup of coffee
"My first kid is in there." Trent slightly mumbled
"Congratulations. Which one is yours?" He asked staring though the window
Trent stood up and looked around before noticing one of the nurses trying to sooth the crying baby girl by rocking her in a nearby rocking chair but it wasn't working out.
"Wow that one is yours? Maybe she'll calm down once she hears a familiar voice." He said glancing over at Trent, "That worked with my first kid." Mario said slightly nodgging him before going inside
"Yeah I guess." Trent nervously said following up behind him
The nurse tried any and everything to stop the baby from crying she didn't even noticed Mario and a nervous Trent standing there. Mario did most of the talking while the nurse verified their I.d and eventually showed them how to probably hold the baby. While Mario held his grandson like a pro the nurse the must a nervous as Trent was when she pass the baby to him. The baby was still crying but when Trent spoke she slowly calm down and eventually stopped crying all together. Mario smiled and the nurse was dumbfounded and Trent instantly felt a connection with the baby girl. After awhile Mario had left and after making sure all the babies were napping she entrusted an intern to watch Trent and the kids.
"Hey bae he's in here!" Mike yelled from the hallway
"Good now we don't have to hunt him down." Nina said catching up
"After you." Mike said opening the door
As soon as Nina walked in she instantly froze and stared at Trent with a smile slowly forming on her face.
"Yo. How's he doing up in there?" Mike asked
"Shhhhh. Look." Nina softly replied pointing at the two
And you can lie with me
With your tiny feet
When you're half asleep
I'd leave you be
Right in front of me
For a couple weeks
So I can keep you safe
Cos you are my one and only
You can warp your finger around my thumb
And hold me tight
And we'll be alright (×2)
"Wow." Mike whispered under his breath while Trent started humming
"Hey. Is everything alright?" Nina asked walking up behind him
"Take a look for yourselves." Trent said turning around with the sleeping baby girl in his arms, "She's so beautiful." He said almost in an adorning way
"Yeah. She has her eyes and that dimple." Nina said
"Right underneath her chin. How is she?" Trent asked glancing up from the baby for the first time
She's recovering they're gonna keep her here for a few days just to make sure until than she needs to rest and they're looking for you to sign off on a few things." Nina answered
"I meant to asked this earlier but than all that craziness broke out but what are you guys gonna name her?" Mike asked
"Layla Maria Garcia." Trent answered staring at her comfortably asleep in his arms
A few hours later they made a deal with the doctors to stay in the same room as me by they had to be as quiet as humanly possible. So when I finally woke up a few hours later I couldn't believe that I was laying on one side of Trent's chest while the baby was laying on the other side and Mike and Nina was asleep on a nearby couch.
"Hey you." He softly whispered
"Hey yourself." I said in the same format
"I love you." He said leaning his forehead on mine
"I love you too." I said closing my eyes relaxing against him
"And we love you too little Layla." He mumbled looking at her still sleeping on his chest
"Are you still afraid of what's to come?" I asked
"No. I'm afraid of knowing that one day we're gonna have to let her grow up and let her go." He replied
And she did grow up over time of course along with Mike and Nina's twin boys Romeo and Julian. She was older then them by a year but they still protected her as if she was their little sister. They all developed their own version of ours powers at a young age expected Julian who didn't developed his powers until he was a teenager. They shared the same bond that we did when we were young but it was a new age. The idea of all mutants being evil had slowly stopped the ideas of sentinels and gobal take overs had ceased even Magneto had a change of heart and decided to end his bitter fued with Charles and work together before both men passed away. The government started funding for more programs and schools for mutants sure there were people who disagreed with the new laws but it eventually became a law to discriminate mutants for being who they are. We often tell our now fully grown kids about our history together since they're old enough to get the full truth. We continued to work at the school and trained the new generation of X-Men every few decades but time slowly made us older and slowly drained us of our youthful look and feel making our bodies weaker our minds slower our spirits more and more at peace realizing if we had a choice to do it all over again...well, it's not my first rebirth.
