Author Notes: OK people here's the next chapter and avery quick update to booth, I probably won't be updating again in the same week, but meh my half-brother sort of inspired this chapter, so thank him I guess.


"Just do it baby" Tori said soothingly "Big boys clean their rooms"

The four year old Anthony West pouted, glaring up towards one of his his adoptive mothers.

It seems that being adopted didn't prevent The young boy from inheriting the infamous "West glare"

"It's my room, and I like it messy!"

"Son, you can't find anything here!"

"I can so" He said "I know where everything is! Under that pile of shorts there is my stuffed whale" The toddle said while pointing at one direction "And over there is..."

"It's dirty Anthony" His mother interrupted "And I don't want you to live this way"

"Why do you care?, it's my room, not yours!"

Sighing exasperatedly, Tori resisted the urge scream at her youngest child, she never did like raising her voice.

Sometimes she was relatively certain that the only reason she hadn't done so already was because her son had the charm that all children possessed in order make adults see then as "adorable" a defense mechanism of sorts, allowing them to survive at least until they hit puberty.

"Mi corazon, this is my house, and my rules." The Half-Latina said calmly "So until you move out, you're going to have to live by them, ok?"

As to be expected the toddler didn't seem to understand the logic behind his mother's words and instead of complying he started shrieking, answering with, "But it's MY room! You have yours, this is mine! Why do you make me clean it if it's not yours?"

Utterly frustrated, and on her wits end, Tori replied with a short, angry bark, "Because I said so! And no child of mine is going to disobey me! Now clean your room!" before marching out of the filthy bedroom, slamming the door shut on her way out.

"And why do you get to slam doors? I can't! It's not fair"

Still steaming, Tori stomped out into the living room, before realizing what she'd just said.

"Oh God"

Horrified, she ran into her own room, running into her wife.

Jade who had been reading one of her favorite horror books gazed to look at her distraught spouse.

"Tor?, what's wrong?"

"I said it" She uttered

"What?

"I said it" She said a little louder.

"Tori I can't hear you"

"I SAID I FUCKING SAID IT!"

Jade was shocked, she knew her wife hated to use swear words so something bad happened to make her this way, so she got up from the chair and walked over yo her wife who inmediately melted into her arms.

The former Goth gently patted her wife on the back, trying to calm her down.

Still in hysterics, Tori replied, "I exploded.. I told Anthony that no child of mine is gonna disobey me!" before breaking out into tears again.

Jade's eyes widened in horror "No". She thought as sheheld her tighter. It was something she hoped never to hear again, she knew those words had such a bitter taste in her wife's mouth, her's too because they associated them with one person.

"I'm turning into my mother!" She screeched, clutching Jade's back.

It was her nightmare come true, the day she'd dreaded her entire life.

Jade gently removed Tori from their embrance and with a look if contempt in her eyes she said with a firm belief, "You are nothing like that woman"

"But I..."

"You love all our kids the way they are, Danielle, Tawny and Anthony ...they drove us insane every time they got and they will continue to do just that till the end of time, but you still love them just like any mother would love her children, you still accepted them for who they are and for who they will turn out to be, and not once have you ever done anything to change them, to force them to be something they're not...Your mom made that stupid ass mistake long ago and it cost her big time, I know you won't follow in her footsteps"

"You think so?"

"I know so" Jade replied firmly "You didn't win mother of the year for nothing"

Tori lowered her head, her eyes filled with guilt "I still think you should have won that title"

The Thespian rolled her eyes "Not this again, let it go, you won fair and square!"

"But..."

"Zip it!" Jade snapped "You are the best mother any kid could ask for and I'm not going to let you think otherwise"

Tori gave her wife a small smile before kissing her passionately, a sentiment the pale woman returned without a hitch.

After several seconds they parted lips but they were still in each other's embrace.

"Dance with me" Tori whispers.

"The kids are home" Jade said bluntly.

The half-Latina blushed furiously "Not that sort of dance! I mean the normal kind!"

"Ah...Well next time specify Vega"

"It's West" Tori corrected in mock anger "Now shut up and dance with me"

Jade smirked "Any particular style in mind?"

As if pretending to think, The tanned woman puts her finger under her chin and eventually answered happily with "Our first one"

A second later, her hand was in Tori's and they were swaying together. After Jade had twirled Tori away from her, Tori moved back into her personal space and rested her head on her wife's shoulder, their fingers still laced together. Jade 's other hand was resting on Tori's back while they moved together on the spot.

"I love you"

"Me too Vega... Me too"

"It's West!"


I based Anthony on my half-brother who apparently just loves to drive my dad, stepmom and myself off the wall whenever I go and visit them, don't think I'm gonna have him be a bratty kid in all future chapters, no I just decided to have him this way because we all remember how toddlers can makes us wonder why the hell do we even have kids in the first place, no? LOL.

anyways, your thoughts?

was it good or bad?
