Supervised visits and bad dreams
Caroline's POV
I got the girls up ready for their visit with their dad at the contact centre. I was shaking with nerves as this was the first time that I had seen Alaric since his stint in Rehab, shit! I was so not ready for this. The dickhead had me shot with a wooden vervained bullet. Nearly leaving his girls motherless, orphaned. 'Oh great, now I'm muttering to myself'
"Doll, what's up?" Stevie wrapped his arms around me and kissed my neck as I groaned.
"The girl's first visit with Alaric, and I'm in panic mode" Stevie sighed "He's clean now doll, and he can't take the girls away from you. We've talked about this, he's still a flight risk, so his passport has been confiscated" The girls came running in at that moment
"Unca' Steve, Unca' Steve! Mummy!" Lizzie and Josie were just so joyful, and I couldn't help but smile. He lifted both girls in his arms "What, you little munchkins?" they giggled as he laughed "Unca Tony just made us our own robot Captain America bear and an Iron Man mini robotic bear, Look, they even wave their hands, when you do" Josie said beaming "That's great, my little butterflies" I smiled "Right, you two have to eat breakfast, have you done a lovely drawing for daddy?" They both went stock still. "Mommy?" they started crying as they ran to me "We don't want Daddy to hurt you again" 'Oh fuck!' I thought "Why would he hurt me, he's cleaned himself up, and he loves you both so much, I know he misses you both, something awful" I coo as I lay kisses in their soft hair. "But what if…" they mutter "No buts, little ladies. It's an hour after nursery. And Clint Barton, the Hawkeye will be watching your dad, okay?" Josie and Lizzie nodded their heads "Hawkeye is cool!" I smiled "He sure is, Stevie still refers to him and Nat as thing one and two" Stevie rolled his eyes with a cheeky grin. "I do not" he griped "You so do!" I laughed. He got a twitchy palm and I gulped "Laters, baby" he said with a husky voice, and I blushed beet red "Okay girls, finish your toast and juice" I scolded them.
Alaric POV
"Hi, I'm Alaric, and I am an alcoholic"
'Hi Alaric' the group said
"I abused my children's mother, and I said awful things to her. All because my wife was murdered after we said our vows" I shed a tear, choked up "I caused her car to crash, by phoning her when I knew she was getting in the car. I hate myself. I arranged for a hit on my children's mother so I could abduct my own daughters, I hated myself even more. I was spiralling and drinking more. Then I realised that only I could turn things around, so SHIELD paid for my rehab/drying out and here I am at this AA meeting. I've been sobered for seven days" The leader of the group stood up and clapped "Thank you Alaric, for your honesty, and no-one gets judged here"
I need to sit down before I completely fall apart.
I listened to the other participants stories as my mind drifts to my girls. My baby daughters, now my four-year-old daughters.
I had screwed up so badly and now my only way to the top was to hit rock bottom.
Much Later
"Hi Agent Barton, Caroline's not here to keep a beady eye on me then?" He shook his head as my little girls stood in front of me, looking unsure. "Why did you hurt Mommy?" Josie asked me "Because I was angry, that your bio-mommy had been taken from me?" I gulped
Children had a way of cutting to the truth of the matter. "I'm sorry, my girls, I tried so hard not be so angry at the world. But you are happy and settled in the Avengers tower aren't you, at least?" I ask as I hug them. "Yes, daddy, are you getting better, as well?" I nod as I hug the girls more. Soon enough my visit with Josie and Lizzie would be over till next week. They gave me a shy kiss and a cuddle as they gave me their drawings. The tension easing from the room. Until Josie piped up, that is. "Mommy's getting married to Uncle Tony and Uncle Steve!" she said excitedly. I could feel the temperature in the room drop as I felt rage. "No!"
"She's not allowed to be happy!" I raged not seeing my two little girls in the room, terrified out of their minds. "Cut it the fuck out, Saltzman" I recall elbowing Agent Barton in the face as my girls were huddled in the corner, terrified and sobbing "Daddy, stop!" I grabbed them in my arms and tried to run out the door "One more move, Saltzman, one more step, and you can say goodbye to your bail conditions, and your visitation rights with your little girls" he had a gun at my back "Put the girls down, now!" he commanded. "Agent Hill, can you get the girls out of this room please?" He must have heard an affirmative because a woman came in and took the girls out of my arms, and out of the room. Oh gods, had I cracked up again, was this like the time when my alter-ego "Evilaric" took over again. I had to stop him from hurting Caroline and the girls! "Kill me, Agent Barton, please!" I begged him crying "No!" he rasped as I grabbed his gun, put it to my head and pulled the trigger.
NYC News
Tragic Suicide in the Manhattan Area
This just in! "We have sad news, on this day ladies and gentlemen. A man, who has yet to be identified has committed suicide within the children's contact centre. Agent Barton of Shield has been brought out, he is in shock….!"
Steve Rogers POV
"No!" I ran down to the lab to see Tony-bear putting on the suit "Tony-bear, we got to get Care, now!" I collapsed in his arms, over-breathing, 'Fuck, panic attack!' I think. He strokes my head and holds me close. "Deep breaths baby blue, relax, that's it" he soothed "There was a suicide by gun at the children's centre" I spoke with watery eyes. Tony's eyes widened
"No, he didn't, tell me he didn't! You shithead, you motherfucker!" Tony was blasting out the window as I frantically called Caroline on her Stark phone. Immediately she picked up the phone "Baby girl, you need to sit down" her breath held "Stevie…?" she said "What's happened" her voice quivered "Tony-bear is on his way to you, now, baby girl, It's Alaric…he"
My throat closed "He shot himself in the children's centre" Caroline wept on the phone "The girls, please tell me he didn't kill our little girls!" she wailed "Sweetheart" my heart broke as I didn't know what to say. "You got to get down here, Stevie, Care's in shock" I heard Tony's voice. "On it, JARVIS, Suit me up!" My phone connected to my new nanotech flight suit and on my back was the nanite vibranium shield that Tony-bear had presented me with after we had completed our triad with Caroline. Flying to the coffee shop. I land and Caroline's on the sidewalk, sobbing. "Stevie!" she flies into my arms as my face plate goes up "The girls are with Agent Hill" she took a deep breath. "I can't believe he took his own life!" I put a finger under her chin. "The girls will get through this; we will all be there for both the twins" I was crying inside for our girl. "Baby blue" I heard in my ear "Bringing the girls to their mother, they are safe Stevie, traumatised but safe" Caroline looked up with hope in her eyes. "Agent Barton is in shock, Alaric grabbed Barton's gun and put it to his head, then pulled the trigger"
Caroline looked to her left as Iron Man aka Tony Stark landed on the pavement with Lizzie and Josie "Mommy!" They cried out as they ran into my arms as Stevie looked on with tears in his eyes. "Remember what I said when Aunt Bonnie died" Caroline hugged the girls on her lap. "You said, 'that it is us and you, always and forever, no matter the…challenges in our lives, but now we have Unca Steve and Unca Tony in our lives helping us too" the girls looked so wide-eyed teary and innocent. Our girls were heartbroken as they cried in Caroline's arms.
Caroline's POV
Here I am again in Mystic Falls, about to bury the father of our children. I don't want to be here. I want to be in New York with Steve and Tony, and the girls. I stroke Alaric's face, even if I am angry with him. "Why'd you snap, Ric?" I must forgive him now.
"Hey, baby girl" Steve kissed my cheek and buried his face in my shoulder "I need to talk to Jeremy Gilbert, now" I blurred out of the room and saw Jeremy standing on the steps of the church. Stevie is behind me "Jeremy?" he turned and smiled at me. "Jeremy, this Steve Rogers" Jeremy looked gobsmacked, as Steve Rogers said hello, but then he smiled again "Alaric wanted me to tell you, that he's deeply sorry, but he felt Evil Alaric take over, his alter-ego that hates vampires. So, he took his own life before he could hurt his little girls. It was the only way he could protect them, anyway, he heard you when you said you forgave him, he found Josette in the afterlife. He also said "Wait-to-go, Caroline!" that was his exact phrasing, what does he mean by that?"
"Um, oh to hell with it, I'm marrying Tony Stark and Steve Rogers in June" Jeremy's jaw dropped. "You are marrying two men?" I nodded as I bit my lip. Jeremy looked at me and Stevie again, then he grinned. then the Limo pulled up, and outstepped Tony Stark in a black suit, Pepper Potts in a cream pencil dress, Eiffel pumps and a black fitted jacket. Then Agent Barton who none of us had heard from in two weeks. Then his husband Phil Coulson Head of the SHIELD Agency. Agent Hill was running point as she handed off the girls to Tony's capable hands. Jeremy and Matt opened the doors widely as Tony came up to me and pulled me into a kiss, I turned to Stevie, and he kissed me too. Wiping my tears away "Com 'on doll let's go and give him one helluva send-off"
They each took a hand of Josie and Lizzie with me in the middle as we walked into the church. The Avengers followed
Tony Stark POV
"Alaric was a very troubled man, and he wasn't a man of faith, until he made the ultimate sacrifice for them. When I did meet Alaric, he was angry with the world, but he got himself clean. Then something caused him to snap, can't put a finger on it, but snap he did, and chose to take himself out of the equation" I looked at Caroline sadly "But he did so for his precious daughters, Josie, and Lizzie, now girls, I know you are sad and hurting, but know that the avengers will be by your side through thick and thin to get you through it" Caroline sobbed into Steve's shoulder. The rest of the gang were crying for her inside. The girls were cuddling on Stevie's lap with teary eyes
Caroline POV
I stood up and took my place at the plinth. "When mom died, I couldn't deal properly, so I ignored the grief and the hurting and threw myself into planning events. Then I was pregnant with the two little angels that I have had the privilege to raise with Alaric. I knew he was angry at everyone for his loss of Josette, and I thought that my companionship would help him. Only I had my own demons from the past to battle. I couldn't deal with his as well" I turned to the coffin with Alaric inside it. "I'm so sorry that you felt you had to do this, and I forgive you" I place a kiss on the coffin "Rest in peace, Alaric"
I started to sing
Go in Peace
Go in kindness
Go in Love
Go in Faith
Leave the day
The day behind us
Day is done
Go in grace
Let us go
Into the dark
Not Alone
Not Afraid
Let us hope
By some good pleasure
Safety to
Arrive at Home
Stevie and Tony-bear looked gobsmacked, teary, and proud of me. "We love you" they mouthed. Alaric's coffin was placed in the ground next to Josette, who had been in the ground for three and a half years. White long stem roses were placed in the vase next to his grave. Tony and Steve had lifted Josie and Lizzie into their arms. "Do you want to say hello to Grandma Liz" Jeremy asked them sweetly "She's here" The girls gasped "Grandma!"
Jeremy took an arm each of Tony and Steve and pointed to their left "Mom!" I cried out
"She wants to let you know how proud she is of you and that she's at peace, because you are happy, and yes, it's unconventional, but Polygamy is accepted. Tony Stark, Steve Rogers, if either of you hurt my granddaughters or break my beautiful daughter's heart, she'll haunt you forever, thanks Liz, you stole my line" Jeremy grumbled. And I laughed as I cried.
Moving forward
Tony Stark's POV
Our girl was back to work and the twin girls were settled into a nice routine. They were in the second grade now. Kindergarten, the teachers there that had no idea what they were letting themselves in for, with the two little siphon-witches. I adored them, their laughter, their smiles. I was ready to step up to be their daddy and so was Stevie. Caroline cried when she found out that we had been to the lawyers for advice about adopting them as our daughters.
Even the girls had a teary moment as they threw their arms around me and Stevie, Care joined in that snuggly hug too.
"What are you thinking about?" Care said as she ran her hands through my hair "The girls look happier, don't you think" she smiled at me sweetly as she took my lips with a passionate, yet chaste kiss. "I've been thinking about asking Freya for two Magic talismans on a necklace, that way they can siphon magic regularly without overdoing it. I'm a vampire, a magical creature, so this would stop them siphoning from me. It tends to desiccate me, I nearly died in my C-section" The door opened to our apartment and Tony smiled.
Stevie walked in then after dropping the twins off. His smile like a thousand-watt-bulb.
"Baby blue?" Care asked with a questioning look "Josie and Lizzie called me 'Daddy SR' and you Tony-bear 'Daddy TS' I laughed and told them you would love that" I smiled then and pulled Stevie into a passionate kiss. He gasped "I do love that, and I love you, baby blue, tell you what, our baby girl Care has a fantastic kink" Caroline nodded as she touched herself delicately, gasping "I do, I've wanted to watch you make love as you watch me make myself cum" Stevie, our soon-to-be husband groaned long and hard as he leaned over our soon-to-be wife and took his cock out "You want to.. ahh. watch, I want you nice and wet, safe word baby girl?" She looked into his eyes "Hot!" and he lifted her head "Mouth open, baby girl, fuck, going to enjoy this" she enveloped him and bobbed her head back and forth as I watched with hooded eyes. Fuck, both make me so hot. I moved nearer to Caroline and played with her nipples. They pointed upwards as I leaned down to suck and lick them. "Fuck! Baby girl, Cumming!" Steve howled as he pumped into her mouth. 'Fuck me! She has no gag reflex, is this another benefit of Vampirism? It must be' I thought with a wicked grin. Caroline swallowed all he had to give and moaned "You taste of balsamic vinegar on strawberries, delicious" He kissed her "Tony-bear, let's put our girl on the bed" which is code for 'We are going to wear you out, baby girl" She moaned pruriently as Stevie lifted her easily. Her legs wrapped around his waist, hooking against his fine ass. I followed, pre-cum dripping into my pants. Fuck, this woman made me feel like a horny teenager, all the time.
I was sleeping well every night, not drinking, she's changed us. For the better, Caroline was our emotional safety. Our love for her was a light in the darkness.
Steve was in the middle of us two that night. Caroline rode him like a cowboy as he gasped and moaned, kissing us both, begging for me to fill him up. I was slicked up with lube, and I had to get inside our Stevie, our baby blue. "Ass up, baby blue" he stuffed a pillow underneath his hips "That's right, fuck, deep breaths baby" he craned his neck as Caroline kissed him, their tongues sliding against each other. I slid into his tight muscled ring as he moaned so low in his throat "Give me it all Tony-bear, please" he begged and I thrusted, planting myself balls deep. "Fuck!" he gasped as I started to move slowly, his ass clenching swallowing me up. Caroline kissed his body as I moved faster. Thrusting, giving my all in this lovemaking. I wouldn't last long as I watched her fangs slide into his neck and drink languidly. "Fuck, I'm going to cum!" We locked eyes with each other as he came magnificently. Spurting cream up his chest as his back came off the bed. I stilled my hips, as I gave all my love and my soul to the two people that I made love to. It blinded me as I collapsed on top of Stevie and pulled Caroline into our cuddle. "Love you both, so very much" I didn't even bother to wipe away the stray tears from such a physical and an emotional outlay. "We love you too, Tony-bear" she wiped away my tears and kissed me, then Stevie and snuggled against us. Her legs covered ours as we fell asleep.
Christmas Surprise
Steve Rogers POV
Caroline woke up first feeling sick and I was on immediate alert as she threw herself over the toilet bowl and started vomiting her guts out. "Nonoo, you don't want to see this, Stevie" she moaned as she hugged the toilet bowl. I held her hair back as she threw up again. Tony made his way to the bathroom "Care, baby blue, what's up?" I shook my head at him "This is not good Tony-bear, shit!" I swore "Stevie, calm down, deep breath" he grabbed my shoulder in a steadying way.
"It's okay, sweetie, come on, back to bed" Tony cooed as we helped her back to bed "JARVIS, call Pepper, tell her that Caroline's sick"
"Yes, Sir, right away, she's online now Sir"
"Yeah, Care-bear is sick Pepper, she won't be making it in today"
"Tony, she's a supernatural, she doesn't get sick, shall we get Bruce up there, and call Stefan in case"
"He's still in the city, bring Valerie with him. I have a funny feeling"
"Okay, on it, Tony"
"Thanks, talk later, when we know for sure" Tony looked at me "Bruce will be here to take her blood, shortly, but in the meantime, I have a theory, Stevie, take off her daylight ring" I was hesitant but did as he asked. It shook us both, "Tony, it's full sunrise and she isn't burning, not even sizzling. She's been feeding from us regularly. Tony, she's human again!" I said excitedly. "She had her fangs in your neck, Stevie, baby. I think she's a hybrid, half human, a day walker"
This was huge! "Still doesn't explain the morning sick… oh fuck" Tony looked at me "We haven't been using protection, Tony-bear, she's pregnant!" Caroline shot up with a shout "What is it with me and magical freaking pregnancies, for heaven's sake?" she griped.
We both laughed in relief that she was back to her normal spitfire 'self'
I took her hand and slipped the ring back on "Baby Girl even if you are a day-walker. Even if you are pregnant with either mine or Tony's biological child, we love you and this wouldn't change anything between us, we adore you and the girls, we love you so much"
"I love you both as well"
"Good, because we are head over heels for you, we aren't ever letting you go, baby girl, you are our personal sun, stars and the fuckin' moon. When we asked you to marry us, that is our reality baby girl. And now you are giving us the best gift ever" I kiss her and Tony joins in with a grin. We are kissing her up and down her body when Stefan comes in with Valerie. "Jeez, that is hot stuff!" he smirks at Tony, Valerie obviously can't look, and we all blush hotly to our ears. "Yeah, great timing, Stefan!" Care screeches as she throws a pillow at him.
Caroline's POV
"Have you thrown up again this morning?" Bruce as he runs my bloods. Steve and Tony are holding one hand each. "No, not at all, in fact someone busted up our cuddles, this morning"
Valerie huffed "Oh for heaven's sake, Stefan, and Caroline, use your ears. Can't you hear it?" she started walking towards me "There are two heartbeats, one slightly faster than the other, she's having two babies" I look down at my stomach and look at Tony and Steve who are looking at me in awe. "Baby girl" they are choked up as they each gather me into their arms "Never thought…" I am hushing them "We're having two babies" I was crying again as Tony looked at Stevie with teary eyes. Bruce looked up smiling "Caroline, you are a hybrid, the bloods came back, you are still part vampire, but part human as well, you would have all their strengths, none of their weaknesses. Apart from needing to drink blood, every day. These twins are created out of super-serum infused sperm and love between you three"
I blushed "You are happy about this, both of you?" I asked Steve and Tony as I bit my lip unsure "Baby girl, we've never been happier, and don't abuse your lip like that darling" Steve leans in kissing my lips as his hand rests over my stomach and Tony does the same catching my lips in a kiss "Alright you three, Care needs to make certain she is pregnant, a small urine sample would do. Then I'll be her Oby-gyn if that's okay?" They both nodded.
Caroline Forbes POV
I had to pee on about three pregnancy test sticks. Those three minutes seemed like three hours. I was overwhelmed and dying to see the result. "Baby, come on, put us out of our misery, please" Tony said sweetly through the door. I swallowed as I opened the door and turned the three positive tests to show them. "I'm pregnant, you are going to be a father, both of you" They grabbed me round the waist covering my lips in sweet kisses as their hands slide to my stomach. "This gift of love, that you've given us, baby girl, it's perfect, you've made us both so happy sweetheart"
I cried a little at their sweet words "I hope so, I really want this with you, both of you. I meant every word I said, I said that I'm in this for the long haul" They both had moist eyes.
"You are Steve's and my girl, just as I am yours and Stevie's" Tony growled "Fuck, you are glowing baby girl" They pushed me up onto the sink unit and kissed me taking turns between them. "Oh gods" I gasped out as Tony started the shower running. Stevie was lifting my dress off as I undressed him with vampire speed. Tony (already naked) pulled me under the warm spray "No underwear, I like it" he growled. They worked me up into a frenzy as Steve kissed my neck "Aah, please?" I begged them as they continuously teased my body.
"Please what, baby girl, what do you need"
"Both of you inside me now!" Steve used some lube and gave the tube to Tony who slicked himself up as I leaned against Stevie "Deeply delightful" I moaned "Fuck, yes baby girl, you are!" Tony lifted me and entered my pussy with gusto as Stevie stood behind me, his hands on my tits, twisting and caressing my oversensitive nipples. "You ready for more, baby girl"
"Yes!" I hissed out "Hold still, relax, unclench" he said soothingly, then he slides into me, and suddenly I feel full. "Aaaah!" he and Tony are moving together. I use my inner muscles to massage and squeeze them both. "Fuck, yeah, do it again!" Tony gasped out as we kiss. Tongues chasing each other. I can feel they are both close and the moans we let slip are pure sin, lust, and love. "Beautiful, you are stunning, fuck, I'm cumming, now!" Stevie groans from behind me and then a white light flashes in front my eyes as they stutter their hips. Taking me with them into a perfect orgasm "Fuck, baby girl, so good for us" Tony's head falls forward into my shoulder. "'Tony" I stutter as they bring me to the shower floor with them. "Love you, so goddamned much baby girl, might need a rest though. Stevie kisses my neck as he mumbles "Agreed"
Tony Stark POV
'Gotta work…Caroline's pregnant with twins…. Um' my smile widened as my mind is lost in a sea of happiness. We are getting married, having twins with Caroline. I can't stop smiling as Natasha watches me closely "Caroline is pregnant, with twins" Natasha's eyes widened "Really?"
"The babies are mine and Steve's. She's not a full vampire anymore, but she still must drink blood. She's a day walker. Stevie's super-serum was the key to this, all along" Stevie sat next to me, his leg shaking "Stevie, baby blue?" I rubbed his thigh
"We can't fuck this up, Tony-bear, we should get married to her tomorrow" he looked…determined.
"Hmm, doable, but Madison Everett needs at least a week to organise everything" Natasha laughed at this "Relax, guys, she already accepted your proposal"
"But she deserves perfection, gosh, this is so big, Nat, we've already adopted Josie and Lizzie, we only need a celebrant and to register the marriage with New York's County office"
"You two are so gone on Caroline, it's really beautiful to see" Nat laughed. Tony perked up as Caroline walked in and sat down on the sofa between the two men. "Hey baby girl, how many weeks did the ultrasound scan put you in terms of gestation?"
"10 weeks, Bonnie and Antonio are cooking perfectly safe in here"
"Have they moved yet?" Caroline brings my hand and Stevie's hand to her stomach. She has a slight bulge where her stomach was flat two weeks ago. "It feels like butterflies, they are incredibly soft fluttering's, almost as if I do have butterflies inside my tummy" Stevie looked like he would leap in joy as he suddenly grinned "I feel it, baby girl, you make us so happy" I just felt awed by the woman who had opened our hearts and minds.
"I wish Bonnie was here" Caroline got teary as we hugged her again. "She is, baby girl"
I comfort her. Stevie comforts her.
