Bradley’s POV

Austin and Phoenix came in through the front door with bags of groceries. Leia was in the backyard running around with Gunner. Hangman and I were sitting on the couch with the boys. Hangman was hunched over Little Bradley on the couch while he was laying in his lap. He was playing peek-a-boo with him. Even though baby boy had no idea what was going on. I’m pretty sure his eyes were closed 98% of the time Bagman was playing with him.

“Sup guys,” Austin called over and nodded his head at Hangman and me as he placed some grocery bags onto the counter.

I nodded and waved back over to him. “What’s up, Aus. Phoenix my girl, my favorite wing-woman. Thank you for doing y/n and I a solid this morning and cleaning up for us.” She came over and grabbed my hand and placed a kiss on my knuckles.

“Anything for y/n and the boys, Bradshaw.” She winked and leaned over the couch to look at Luke passed out on my lap. She cooed over him. “Oooooh look at the little man sleep. Is that Luke or Bradley?”

I chuckled. “Luke.”

Hangman interjected. “Bradley boy has a new and cool gift from his mama and daddy.” He picked up little Bradley and handed him off to Phoenix.

“Huh.” Phoenix raised her brows and nodded. “What is your new and cool gift Bradley boy?” She said in a baby voice as she grabbed him and covered his chubby cheeks in kisses.

“Hazel. Eyes.” Hangman smiled and looked back at Phoenix.

Phoenix raised her brow and readjusted Brad against her chest. She looked over at me and was looking for approval. “Hazel eyes??”

I nodded. “He’s got some dreamy hazel eyes. The perfect combination of mine and y/n’s eyes.”

Her eyes went wide as she carefully held baby Brad in her hands. Austin joined and looked at him in Phoenix’s hands. He opened his eyes and his eyes were glistening at them both. They were mesmerized by his piercing hazel eyes.

“Oh, man. Look at those.” Austin chuckled and rubbed his index knuckle against Brad’s cheek. “Those are beautiful.”

“There is a new secret weapon in town and it is this little man.” Phoenix was smiling at baby Brad in her hands. “Look out world. Luke and Bradley are going to steal your girls.”

I laughed and shook my head. “He is the only one with Hazel eyes. Luke has green eyes like Leia and me.”

Austin and Phoenix both looked at me shocked. “So then you’re gonna be able to tell them apart forever?” Austin chuckled.

“And you won’t have to like call the hospital and beg one day for their original fingerprints to try and tell them apart when they’re 13 because you are having second thoughts about possibly mixing them up when they were 6 months old?” She raised her brows.

I started to laugh. “God, that would have been a fun and great story one day if that were the case. But, we, unfortunately.” I rolled my eyes. “Won’t get the chance to mix them up because they have that difference.”

Hangman shrugged his shoulders. “I still think we are going to mix you, Leia, Little B, and Luke up because you are all carbon copies.”

I rolled my eyes and stood up as I brought Luke to my chest. “On that note.” I handed a sleeping Luke to Austin. “Would you all watch my kids for a second? Leia is out back with Gunner playing. I need to go check on my wife. Make sure she’s okay.”

Austin and Phoenix took a seat on the couch with the boys and Hangman headed out back with Leia and Gunner.

I ran up the stairs and opened the door quietly to see the bed fixed and empty.

“Sweetheart? You in the bathroom?” I entered the room and closed the door behind me.

You came out from the closet with your hair wrapped up in a towel and one of my shirts on. “God, I haven’t fit into one of your shirts like this since before I was pregnant with the boys.” You giggled and came over to me and placed a kiss on my lips.

I smiled and wrapped my arms around you. “Sleep good, baby?”

You nodded and smiled up at me. “I did. Thank you so much, Bradley. I really needed that.”

I kissed you again and rubbed your back. “Anything for you, sweetheart. I knew you needed some rest. You did so much last night and these last 9 almost 10 months. I owed it to you.”

You hummed and laid on my chest. “Where are the kiddos?”

I laid my head on top of yours and embraced you tightly. “They are all downstairs. Being taken good care of.” You nodded and looked up at me.

“I’m going to finish getting ready. I’ll meet you downstairs in 20. We have our big news to share with the three adults downstairs.” You raised your brows and turned around to continue to get ready.

“Oooo. You are right. The godparents.” I smiled and placed one more kiss on your cheek as I gripped your hips. “See you downstairs in a bit, mama.”

———-

I rejoined the future godparents and the kids downstairs. Leia had just come back in from the backyard with Gunner. Hangman was washing her hands in the kitchen. Gunner was wedged in between Austin and Phoenix trying to smell the boys.

I sat in one of the single sofas across from the couch and watched Phoenix, Hangman’s, and Austin’s interactions with the kids. I smiled seeing how much they cared for them. I knew you and I were making a great choice in choosing them to be there for our kids for the rest of their lives. I looked down and started to think about when we would go back to San Diego and everyone else would get to meet the boys and see Leia again. Man… I couldn’t wait. You and I were the luckiest people in the world to have everyone we had in our lives.

Hangman made his way over with Leia. He sat next to Austin on the couch with Leia in his lap. She leaned over carefully as she watched her little brothers sleep. She softly started to rub Luke’s head.

You finally made your way down and greeted everyone.

“Hey Good afternoon, Mrs. Bradshaw!” Hangman laughed and he grabbed your hand.

You made your way over and kissed all three kids on their heads.

“Hey, mama. How did you sleep?” Phoenix reached her hand out for yours and interlocked your fingers with hers.

You smiled and let out a relaxing sigh. “I slept great. Thank you all so much for taking care of the kiddos to let me sleep in a little bit.”

Austin grabbed your other hand and placed a little kiss on it. “Anything for the hardworking mama!”

You giggled and looked over at me. I gestured for you to come and sit on my lap. You made your way over and sat with me. I wrapped my arms around your waist and you cleared your throat.

“Sooooo.” You smiled at all of them before looking at me.

They all looked at each other confused.

I peeked my head around your body and smiled. “We have a surprise for you all.”

They all furrowed their brows at you and me. Leia popped up from Jake’s lap startling Gunner. “Are we having more babies!?”

Austin, Phoenix, and Hangman looked at Leia with wide eyes and then shared the same look with us. You started to laugh and so did I.

“God. Y’all move quickly. Didn’t waste any time.” Hangman pursed his lips together and shook his head at us. He looked disgusted. The whales.

You shook your head and leaned back against me. “Definitely no more babies.”

“For now.” I smiled. You rolled your eyes at me and looked back to the group.

“Bradley and I wanted to ask the three of you.” You looked at Jake and smiled. “And Sarah.” He smiled back at you. “If you would do Bradley and me the honor of being the boy’s godparents.” You bit your lip nervously as you waited for their answers.

They were all stunned and were lost for words.

Phoenix looked down at baby Brad sleeping in her arms. She bit her lip as it quivered. She looked back up at you and me as she wiped her tears. “I would love that more than anything.” She placed kisses on baby boy's cheeks as she held him close.

Austin smiled and was holding back his tears. “Are you serious?”

Hangman was just staring into space in the boy’s direction. You broke down, “I’m dead serious… What do you all think?” I held you close and waited for all of them to reply.

“YES!” Phoenix nodded in excitement as she embraced baby Brad to her chest. Austin smiled at you and me with tearful eyes.

“I would be honored to be a godfather of one of these little guys.” He wiped the inner corner of his eyes.

Hangman was still silent. I looked over at him and leaned forward against your back. “Bagman?” I raised my brow at him and smirked. He looked up at me with his lips pushed together. “What do you say, wingman?”

He opened his mouth slightly about to say something and then looked down. He licked his lips and pushed them back together. Leia patted the top of his head. “Uncle Jakey?”

Hangman looked back up at Leia and smiled. He looked back over at you and me. “I would love to. Thank you.” He bit his lower lip and looked down. “Thank you for this. Seriously.”

I chuckled. “I wouldn’t and they wouldn’t be here without you.” He looked up at me quickly and started to cry slightly. I gave him a reassuring smile. “Thank you, Seresin.”

He smiled at me and looked back over at the boys. You wiped your tears, “So it’s settled. Of course, after you ask Sarah, Jake.”

Hangman smiled back at you and nodded. “I know she would love to. So which lucky man do I get?” He chuckled.

You looked back at me and nodded. I cleared my throat. “Our little Luke.”

Phoenix gasped and placed her hand over her mouth. “Aus, that means we have little Braddie boy.” She poked his nose and hugged him. “But I will and always will be here for both of you boys.”

Austin and Hangman nodded. “I agree.” They both said in unison.

———-

Your POV

It has been a couple of weeks since the boys were born, you and Bradley were starting to adjust to their daily routine. On the days that Bradley was gone for physical therapy, you had Austin to lean on for some help.

~~~~

You came home from your check up appointment with the doctor. Bradley was off today and watched the kids while you were out. When you came home you were thrown off with a surprise. Bradley was carrying both of the boys in his arms with Leia clinging onto his back dancing around the kitchen to I Was Made For Lovin’ You by Kiss.

Him and Leia were singing to the boys as he was dancing around. “I was made for lovin’ you babies! You were made for lovin’ me! And I can’t get enough of you babies!”

You gasped as you put your purse on the counter. “Bradley and Leia Rey Bradshaw.” They both looked at you with wide eyes as they stopped singing mid-sentence and stopped dancing.

“Uh Oh, daddy.” Leia hopped off of Bradley’s back and smiled at you awkwardly. “hi momma.”

You started to laugh as you walked over and kissed her head. “Leia Rey.” You squinted your eyes and walked over to Bradley. He was cradling the boys in his arms and standing completely still. “Bradley Nicolas Bradshaw.” You clicked your tongue against the roof of your mouth, “What do we have here?” You laughed and shook your head as you grabbed Luke from Bradley’s arms.

“Hello, sweetheart.” Bradley already knew you were going to scold him.

“Bradley. You are still recovering and you have all three kids clinging to you.” You kissed Luke on his forehead making him smile.

“Sweetheart.” Bradley cleared his throat, “I am fine. I promise.”

You raised your brows and squinted your eyes at him. “I know you are, but I need you to be extra careful. Especially if you want to fly again, babe.”

Bradley smiled and chuckled. “Baby. That is why we are dancing.”

You raised one brow and look up at him as you placed another kiss on Luke’s head. Leia came over and wrapped her arms around you. “Momma. Daddy got cleared to fly.” She said in a little whisper.

You gasped and held Luke’s head to your chest as you covered his ear. “BRADLEY!” Your mouth was in a wide smile and you started to bounce up and down. “REALLY!?”

He started to laugh as he nodded his head. “OH MY GOD. OH MY GOD. OH MY GOD!”

You bit your lip and smiled at him. “YESSSS!”

He shook his head as he was laughing. He grabbed Luke from your grasp and cradled him next to baby Bradley. “I start ground training tomorrow. Gonna start going through the exercises to get me ready for flying again.”

You put your hands over your mouth, “YES FINALLY!” You jumped around with Leia, “well crank up the music! We are celebrating again!”

————-

Bradley’s POV

It was my first official day back at work. I woke up at 0400, so that I could feed the boys and then get ready. They were both fast asleep. I went to the mini fridge in the corner of the room that we had set up. I grabbed two bottles of your milk and placed them in the mini micro above the fridge to nuke it. As they warmed up I grabbed little Brad from his bassinet. I bounced him in my arms gave him kisses. I laid him on my empty side of the bed as I went and grabbed Luke from his bassinet. After I laid them down together, I went and grabbed the bottles. I checked the temperature for both before placing them into their mouths.

I got on my knees on the floor by the edge of the bed as I held both bottles to the boys’ mouths. “You boys are getting so big. It’s ridiculous. Please stop growing. Daddy wants you boys to stay babies forever.” I let out a little chuckle, “Before I know it, you boys are gonna wanna go flying with Papa Mav. Just like your big sister Leia.”

I watched them with tears in my eyes as they finished their bottles. I picked them both up and placed them on my chest as I sat against the headboard of the bed. I began to burp them, burping was an understatement. They both belch like grown men. After their burping, I changed their diapers and placed them back into their bassinets. I kissed each of them as they fell back to sleep.

“Daddy loves you so much, boys.”

I started to get ready for work.

~~~~

After cleaning up, I put on my whites and opted for the short sleeve shirt. I grabbed my hat and held it between my arm and waist. I went and placed a kiss on your head. “I’m leaving now, baby. I’ll see you tonight. I love you.”

You opened your eyes and smiled. “I’ll miss you, Brad. Have a good day and be safe please. I love you so much.” You reached your arms up and gave me a hug.

“The boys are fed and changed. So get some sleep, babe.” I moved your hair from your face and gave you another kiss. “Bye, baby. I love you.”

You waved bye to me as I left the room. I went and gave our sleeping Leia a kiss. Then met with Phoenix and Hangman downstairs.

“Well, well, well. What do we have here?” Hangman had a smirk on his face while he sipped his coffee. “Looking good, Rooster.” He held his mug up to me and winked.

“Seresin. Good morning.” I chuckled as Phoenix handed me a mug.

“Are you ready for today, Bradshaw?” She smiled as she sipped her coffee.

I sighed and sipped my coffee, “More than ready. I’ve been waiting for this moment for nearly 6 months. I hope I can get back in the pit before we are sent back to San Diego.”

Hangman nodded his head. “Well, you have plenty of time to get into the pit. I have confidence you’ll get in there, but if you can’t, you always have more time in San Diego. Take your time and don’t rush it. Take it day by day, Rooster. We are all here for you.”

“Thanks you guys. I definitely will get a feel for it today. See how it goes from here. But today is day one.”

They both patted me on the back and we all put our mugs away. “Well then, let’s go and start day one.”

————-

Your POV

It was your first full day of watching the boys and Leia solo without Bradley. Thankfully you had Austin who was helping occasionally, but you ultimately wanted to try on your own. It went smoothly, a couple of blowouts from Luke, but nothing out of the normal. You looked over at the clock and it was 4:30.

Austin was making dinner with Leia, as you laid the boys down for their nap. “They should all be home soon, huh darlin?” Austin asked as he munched on a carrot.

You nodded and wrapped your arms around Leia. “Yup! Give them another 30 and they’ll be here.” You laid on Leia’s shoulder. “Thank you for helping with your brothers today, babe. You helped mommy so much.” You kissed her cheek over and over again as she stirred dinner and giggled.

“You’re welcome momma. I love helping with my brothers!”

Austin patted her head and smiled at you. “Best sister ever.” You and him laughed as they continued dinner.

~~~~

Bradley, Phoenix, and Jake finally made it home. They all came in laughing. Austin went over to greet them as you and Leia finished setting the table. You could hear Austin shushing everyone as they came into the dinning area. The boys were still asleep for their nap.

“Where are my boys?” Bradley whispered as he came over and gave you and Leia a kiss on the head.

“They’re asleep in their bassinets.” You looked over in their direction. Their bassinets were set up by the couches.

Bradley went and washed his hands before he made his way over to the boys. Phoenix and Jake followed behind. They all went to give the boys kisses as they slept. Phoenix and Jake came over to the table to start eating with Leia and Austin.

You walked over to Bradley and laid your head against his shoulder. “Look at ‘‘em sleep, Brad.”

You smiled as you caressed baby Brad's cheek.

“They’re perfect. Just like you and Leia Rey.” He gave both of them kisses before he turned to you and smiled. “Thank you for this life baby. I wouldn’t be here without you.”

You smiled and he held your face in his hands. “Thank you for coming back and loving me like we never parted. I love you, always.”

Um… hi Kyra! Be prepared bcs this will be a long one…

So, I finished KCU about four months ago, and let me just say that I think it’s a masterpiece, everything about it is perfect, one part in particular that I loved was how relatable the reader was (Believe it when I say it, it is HARD to do that, especially when you don’t know WHO is reading) I could definitely see myself doing exactly what she was doing! I loved how possessive Kylo Ren was and how he as also extremely conflicted about the reader herself, you managed to portray his turmoil really well! A part that BROKE me was when Leia was talking about how he got his soulmate phrase… Damn… you’re telling me this kid, that already thought of himself as a monster, was super happy that he HAD a soulmate, because that was a confirmation that he could be good and be loved unconditionally by someone, only to have his hopes CRUSHED when HIS MOTHER read to him what it said???!!!! DAAAANNGGG GIRL!!! You woke up and chose violence!!!!

But anyway, let’s get to the point that I wanted to get… ahem… if you’re comfortable… AND ONLY IF YOU’RE COMFORTABLE… (if not, ignore this part all together) I wanted to know if you have plans to continue it, i have been searching in your profile (stalking) for a reason why you stopped(not that i am obligated to have one!!) and the only thing i could find was that you stoped writing for KCU was bcs you felt that people wanted to end in a certain way and you didn’t (I could be wrong btw it has been a long time since I saw it) and that’s so sad! BUT I am really happy with the chapters we have! I love re-reading them! In the end you should put yourself first, if it’s not making you happy then you should not stress about it!

Also… if you don’t have any plans for it… I think it would be really cool if showed some BTS! I saw the other ask saying the same thing about STBOTDI (amazing fic btw) and i thought “hey it would be pretty neat if she did it for KCU too!” so if you’re feeling generous, feed this starving woman?

Anyway! thanks for listening to my rant! Thats all Folks

oh, kingdom come undone, my beloved. thank you so much for your kind words- it's been a while since I've looked back on KCU. I'm pretty sure I cackled when planning the part with Kylo's soulmark and the revelation about how it appeared because it's so sad lmao.

I do have plans to continue it, eventually. I want to go back and edit earlier chapters (and truly EDIT them, like overhaul level of editing) because I want to put it back on track to the vision I had for it originally. A big part of why I kinda fell out of love with writing it is because I felt like there was going to be a lot of people upset that I didn't make "Ben Solo" happen because fuck that shit, I like Kylo Ren bc he's a piece of shit who is sad sometimes not because he's an uwu soft baby who made a lil mistake.

But also, I started writing it in a really hard time- I had been dealing with extreme isolation due to both COVID and some things that happened with my friend group that ended up separating me from them (I had my family and I'm very grateful but there were months before I returned home from my college apartment because I wanted to be independent and believed it wasn't that bad and ended up just... not coping well with that, I'm afraid). I started planning KCU when I was in Pennsylvania for my grandmother's funeral and was writing it while dealing with extreme anxiety and depression combined with the struggles of being on different medications. So, while I do hold KCU in my heart and I love it, I do view it as a time capsule and know that I was writing it to distract myself from and cope with the shit I was dealing with. All of that makes it hard for me to go back to it because it feels very vulnerable, even if it doesn't come through in the text. I don't know if that makes sense.

BUT yes, I would love to one day go back, give it some TLC, and finally finish it for you all. I don't know if I have any BTS I could share right now because I really want to sit down with it and fix it, but once I'm comfortable with the state it is in, I will share.

Thank you so much. <3

prompt number 34 “Stop denying it! You need sleep” could you make a drabble of this prompt about grandma kitty and grandpa red? maybe them helping donna and eric with baby leia?

love your drabbles!! 🥰🥰

Thank you, anon, and thanks for the ask! Hope you enjoy Gma Kitty and Gpa Red. Prompt Ask Game

Red pulled his car down the familiar street, and parked underneath a streetlamp. His eyes were peeled for the Toyota, and sure enough - there it was, parked just across from him. He rolled his eyes as he stepped from the car and made his way towards the building.

The front door to Eric and Donna's unit was unlocked, as it always was, despite his repeated advice to keep it locked. He pushed it open easily, mumbling, "What if I was a predator? Dumbass," under his breath.

The lights in the apartment were off except for a dimly lit lamp in the corner of the living room. Red moved past it, to the nursery. Sure enough, his wife sat in the gliding rocker, their five week old granddaughter fussing against her chest.

"Hush little baby, don't say a word," Kitty's singing voice was muted, murmuring, but still beautiful. "Grandma's gonna buy you a mockingbird."

Red leaned against the doorframe for a moment, hesitant to interrupt her.

"And if that mockingbird..." she wavered, like she'd forgotten the words to the next verse.

"Don't sing," Red cleared his voice and chimed in, his voice low and a bit uncertain. "Grandpa's gonna buy you a golden ring."

"Red." She turned around, and smiled at him like she'd won a million in the lottery.

He, however, had some concerns to raise.

"Kitty you're still watching Leia?" He frowned and glanced at his watch. "It's almost 10 o'clock."

"Donna has a night class," Kitty explained, around a yawn. "And Eric picked up a double shift tonight."

"So what time will they be - "

"Any minute now," she waved him off, unbothered. "Red, it's fine."

"Kitty, it's not fine."

"It's fine," she insisted, nodding to Leia, who had settled and was now dozing against her. "I'm spending quality time with my granddaughter."

He could see how happy she was - it shone from every feature. But his concern for her remained.

"You've spent every night here this week."

"Well, Leia needed me," Kitty cooed.

"Kitty, stop denying it!" Red rose his voice, just a little. "You're doing too much. You need sleep!"

Kitty looked surprised at his outburst, but then after a moment she looked sheepish.

"I suppose I - " she hesitated. "I am feeling a little tired." She gave her signature giggle, as if to prelude her vulnerability. "I was getting nervous about driving home on the freeway," she admitted to him.

Red nodded. "I'll drive you," he said, comfortingly. "We can come back for the Toyota tomorrow morning."

"Oh, Red," she sighed. A long glance between them said everything.

After a moment, he clapped his hands together. "Now, hand over the baby," he instructed, reaching for Leia. "Why don't you go lay down until Donna gets home, hmm?" He grinned at the warm little pink bundle still nodding off in his wife's arms. "It's Grandpa-time, now."

my thoughts on the absolute rollercoaster that was kenobi

it had its slips, that's for sure

probably most prominently? the grand inquisitor.

i kind of got used to the round head and the scenes that we did get were great, don't get me wrong, they just massively underutilised him and i'm pretty disappointed

we didn't even get to see him fight anybody

i'm glad that we got to see a lot of reva but... you can't just sideline the coolest inquisitor like that, come on people

also this is just me personally but WHY DIDN'T WE GET TO SEE THE SEVENTH SISTER WTF

some bits were. slow, to say the least

i guess that's to be expected but nonetheless

and the first obi-wan vs. vader duel wasn't that great in terms of choreo but do i really care? no, the bit with the fire tore my soul out

ALSO WHERE WAS DUEL OF THE FATES??

i get it they probably didn't want to overshadow the phantom menace but then. why show it in the trailer and give me hope

BUT

the finale? fucking perfect.

soresu stance is back, obi-wan kenobi is back

the pain in ewan's eyes, this man deserves an oscar

"goodbye... darth."

that wasn't james earl jones talking after vader's mask was shattered, that was hayden, that was anakin

you know how much i was ranting about the imperial march not being there before? well i now understand 110% why

we didn't hear vader's theme any earlier because we weren't seeing vader. we were seeing the shattered fragments of what's left of anakin and when palpatine sticks his shrivelled face in and warns him that he's letting himself become weakened because he still cares about obi-wan

and in his eyes obi-wan doesn't care about him

because he walked away, he didn't come back, and left him to die again

and when vader is screaming his name that isn't a challenge to fight, that's anakin pleading, begging his brother to not walk away and abandon him

and he does

and that's why we hear the imperial march because anakin is truly gone (until return of the jedi but)

the callbacks to rebels when obi-wan slashed vader's helmet 🥹

the way that vader pulls the pillars down whereas obi-wan lifts them up

subtle hand-holding and fighting back to back when they’re duelling because deborah must twist the knife

basically that entire duel was sheer perfection and i couldn't have asked for anything better

THE FEELS THE FUCKING FEELS I'VE NEVER SOBBED SO HARD IN MY LIFE

it was so good to see ewan and hayden back, especially in the flashbacks 😭

the leia and anakin parallels and obi-wan bonding with her 🥲

obi-wan and owen reconciling 🥹

FORCE GHOST QUI-GON WHAT MORE DO I NEED TO SAY

LEIA'S THEME

this just this

VADER CRACKING THE GROUND. VADER NOT EVEN USING HIS LIGHTSABER WHEN REVA'S GIVING IT HER ALL. VADER ABSOLUTELY TEARING APART A MASSIVE SHIP AT FULL THROTTLE. JUST VADER.

despite the fact that he wasn't in it enough, i really liked rupert friend as the grand inquisitor!

yes, jason isaacs is stunning and i miss my murder gremlin at his full chaoticness but nonetheless rupert's portrayal was awesome

and his dramatic entrance was beautiful i've never screamed so much since the luke reveal at the end of the mandalorian

REVA.

honestly i wasn't sure if i'd like her at the very beginning, i thought she'd just be a generic villain, but her character was on point, her redemption arc was awesome and i wanted to hug her so badly at the end when she saw herself in baby luke

i really want to see more of her! preferably with the rest of the inquisitorius because i love the gang with all my heart, but i'll take what i can get

she's a really good foil to vader because they were both led into the darkness by their need for revenge but reva chose to step away from it and let go of the past

and so did obi-wan

he chose to step away from the part of anakin that was gone forever and instead turn to the parts that lived on through his children because being a jedi isn't about a complete lack of attachment it's about not clinging onto the past until it consumes us and embracing hope instead

and that, my friends, is the heart of star wars

so, overall? i absolutely adored it, it’s one of my favourite star wars shows. i’m just very salty that my favourite boy was in the marketing so much and then he only got about ten minutes of screentime. if that.

Cancelled-Dream Was Taken

A/N: Surprise bitch. Weren’t we expecting for me to release mcyt fanfics soon? If I didn’t tag my usual @‘s it’s because idk if you’d like to be tagged for mcyt content.

Pronouns: she/her

Word Count: 2.3k+

_________________

"You're so harsh on him!" Her hands sat on the keyboard, staring at the green human that stood on Y/n's computer screen.

She needed to be careful. While this was a heated moment, she couldn't let herself get too loud for multiple reasons. If she got too loud, Dream's stream viewers would be able to tell she was in the next room or they would just receive noise complaints from their neighbors.

"No Y/n! You're too soft on him! He needs to learn that he can't get away with everything. You're setting him up for failure." As the h/c girl listened to her roommate speak, she had to remind herself over and over again; 'This wasn't real.' Dream was mad, not Clay.

This had all been arranged as roleplay. Y/n would be leaving in a few days to go visit some of her family for a reunion, so Wilbur had been the one to think up the brilliant idea of what was playing out now; an argument between Y/n and Dream. The plan was to have Y/n get so upset she didn't log onto the SMP for the next few days, only to come back with a master plan to backstab Dream.

At first, Clay wasn't really on board with the thought of him getting angry at Y/n. They had been together for a little over a year, there wasn't a single moment they had gotten upset with one another. But surprisingly, Y/n had been the one to convince Clay it was a good idea.

The fans knew Dream and Y/n had a close friendship, Dream had always been so protective of her. But when this was going down, they didn't know how to act.

Every time Y/n would glance at her chat, she'd see thousands of comments rising up as new ones appeared. Comment after comment, it looked like the fans were shocked by the way this stream was turning out.

"I'm not setting him up for anything! He's a kid, Dream!" Y/n glanced from the chat, back at the screen showing her PC game. Standing on her screen was Dream and Tommyinnit, she had accompanied Dream to visit Tommy.

"You're just babying him! 'He's a kid!' Well, he needs to learn to grow up eventually," his voice had been filled with such spite. It felt weird to hear Clay speaking to her like this in such a tone.

For a moment, she stared at the green man before a short scoff escaped her lips. "I can't believe you." With that, Y/n had pressed a few keys, turning her character towards the nether portal a couple of yards away. Before Dream had gotten the chance to speak again, Y/n began to move away.

"Y/n! Come back here!"

She flicked a few buttons, taking a moment to look behind her character to see Dream following. Good, everything was going according to plan. Within the next few minutes, she'd be able to log off and she'd be on vacation for the next few days.

The h/c girl ignored the green man as she stepped through the portal, taking her to Minecraft's version of hell. Almost done, she just needed to find a good spot to stop as she listened to Dream continue to speak.

"You can't keep ignoring me! You know I'm right in this. You know you can't keep defending Tommy. You know Tommy is driving a wedge between us-"

Perfect. Y/n had stopped just on the edge of a bridge, molten lava sat feet below them. If she fell, she'd surely die. "No."

"No?" Dream was a bit surprised to hear Y/n cut him off, but he stayed silent as he was prepared to listen to what she had to say.

"No. No more. I don't wanna hear you blame Tommy for us breaking apart. I want you to listen to me. You've been acting like much more of a dick than usual and I hate it. I despise it. You've changed for the worst because you think you can step on everyone. At this point, everyone fears to tell you the truth-except me. I'll be a hundred percent honest with you, you've been so egotistical, it's really pissed me off. This is your fault, Dream. Not Tommy's. You exiled a child for pulling a prank on a vacation house! Not even George's real house!"

"But-"

"Shut the fuck up. I'm done, but I don't wanna hear you bullshit me. So shut the fuck up."

A moment of silence passed between them as Y/n stared at her screen. Just a few more steps.

And within seconds, Dream had pulled out his netherite sword. With one hit, she was falling back into lava. Y/n glanced at her chat, a look of shock on her face as she read over what a few comments said. A moment of silent tension had passed before Y/n had finally spoken up, removing her from the voice chat she was in.

"Alright guys, I guess that's enough for the day. I'll see you all... later." With that, she had clicked a few buttons, raiding Dream's live-stream as she ended hers.

For the next 20 to 30 minutes, Y/n knew Clay would be busy streaming. So she had decided to take a bit of time to wind down and think to herself.

Get a glass of water.

'Are the fans harassing him in his twitch chat?'

Sit down on the living room couch.

'The SMP fans were always so protective of me.'

Pet Patches.

'Was I too much when I snapped at him?'

It didn't seem like 30 minutes had passed when Clay had walked out of his streaming room, only to find Y/n on the couch with Patches in her lap. "Hey, N/n." "Oh, your stream is already over?" Y/n smiled, pulling herself out of her thoughts as she scoot over, giving Clay room to take a seat right by her.

"Yeah, did you lose track of time or something?"

"I must've. How did the chat react after I 'died'?" She smiled up at her boyfriend as he wrapped an arm over her shoulders, pulling her closer into his embrace.

"Everyone was filled with joy that you died."-Y/n playfully swatted at him. "Okay, okay! I got a few chat messages of people bashing me for it, but it's fine."

"Well, it's a good thing the chat wasn't completely littered with hate. How was it after my raid?"

"Honestly, not that bad as you expect. Like I said, just a few comments. Nothing bad, I just ignored it." Clay placed a hand on Patches's head, gently scratching her, followed by the animal beginning to purr.

"Good to hear, anyways... I'm not ready to pack. Do you think we can procrastinate?" The h/c girl let out a huff leaning against her boyfriend. "How?"

"I was thinking a bit of movie binging, cuddling, and ordering dinner?" A cheeky smile spread on her face as she spoke.

"It's like you read my mind."

The couple had made it through three movies, by now it was later at night. The sun had set and they had already door dashed some food. By now they were in the middle of watching 'The Empire Strikes Back.'

'I love you.' 'I know.'

The iconic moment between Hans and Leia had been interrupted by the sound of Clay's phone buzzing. "Why is George calling?"

"What?" Y/n was a bit curious herself. Considering the timezones, George should be asleep right now. Pausing the TV, she turned her attention to her boyfriend's phone.

"Hey Clay."

"What's up, George? Isn't it like early in the morning for you?" Clay raised a brow, moving his phone so Y/n would be able to see George as well.

"Yeah, I had to stay up to fix a YouTube video I need to get out today. I was about to go to bed and I checked Twitter-"

"Oh no." Clay made a short joke, only to be cut off by his friend.

"I don't know if it's trending for you in America, but you might as well look."

"What's going on?" He swiped up, taking him to his home screen so he could click on the little blue bird app. Y/n had grabbed her phone from the coffee table, opening up the app as well. "#Cancel Dream... #Y/n... #Dream SMP"

"Is... is Clay getting canceled for killing me in Minecraft?" Y/n scrolled through the tweets involving the hashtag 'Y/n.' She could see plenty of people defending her, but making it much bigger of a problem than it actually was.

"Oh, hey Y/n. But yeah, he is." George chuckled awkwardly, scrolling through his Twitter app as well.

"This is so fucking stupid."

"It really is. So we might as well get this cleared up with the fans as soon as possible. Do you want me to tweet something, or do you want to?" Y/n looked up at her boyfriend, it looked like he was thinking.

"Yeah, I'll tweet it. Don't worry about this, Y/n."

"Alright, whatever you say," she replied, pulling a blanket over her as she waited for Clay to finish typing his response.

"Here's what I'm gonna say: 'I can't believe you guys actually think me and @(y/n) are in an actual fight in real life. We have been good friends since forever, the fight was only roleplay. I love that you guys are so protective of Y/n, but no one's actually upset.' How's that sound?"

"I think that's good," George hummed softly.

"Yeah, I doubt you'll stay 'canceled' once you've explained to them it was all part of the SMP lore." The h/c girl smiled up at her boyfriend with a small nod.

"Alright, I'm gonna post it. George, I think you should go to bed because you're half asleep already."

Y/n turned, looking at her boyfriend's iPhone. "Go to sleep, Gogy!"

"Alright, alright... I'll talk to you guys later." The call had ended with Clay and Y/n saying goodbye to their friend while George simply yawned to them as a response.

As soon as the call was over, Clay looked at the response to his tweet. It didn't seem to be going too well. There had been a few fans who understood what was going on and responded with a paragraph as an apology for the misunderstanding. But most replies had been telling Clay he was bullshitting the fans or that he wasn't being honest.

"I'm sorry, Clay," his girlfriend had huffed as she read through the responses to his tweet.

"Honestly I'm just a bit pissed off. Literally, any time someone tries to 'cancel' me, it's over something stupid. I'm not a bad guy, it just feels like some people just don't want to see me succeed." Clay had excused himself to grab a glass of water from the kitchen.

It hurt Y/n to hear how upset her boyfriend was. He never got too upset over things, but seemed to take a small toll on him. "Hold on. Let me say something." The h/c girl couldn't be asked to post multiple tweets of her response to hate sent towards Clay over the internet. So what was better than a short video that could be posted to the blue bird app?

"Um, hey guys. I'd just like to make this quick. Stop sending hate towards Dream. The fight was roleplay and nothing more. I'm gonna be busy for the next couple of days so Wilbur thought of a good idea to help build SMP lore with me and Dream and we both agreed to the argument. Now stop sending the green man hate, or I'll commit war crimes or something-"

Y/n had been interrupted by the sound of Clay letting out a small giggle. "What? What did I say?"

"Nothing, just keep going with your video."

"Whatever, I'm cool. No matter what Dream says. Anyways, I'll speak to you all later." Y/n had hit the red button again, ending her video. Within seconds, the video had been uploaded to her Twitter account.

Placing her phone back down on the table, Y/n approached her boyfriend, wrapping her arms around his torso. "I'm really sorry about the hate, Clay. I love you."

"Don't apologize for something you can't control. I love you more." The brunette held his partner close, accepting her hug. Y/n always loved his hugs, she always felt so safe in his embrace.

The rest of the night had been spent with more cuddling and more Star Wars movies. Hours had passed before Y/n had even thought about the Twitter situation again. But for some reason, she had decided to look at the app again tonight.

It was 2 in the morning by now, Clay was half asleep. His head laid in the h/c girl's lap as she brushed a hand through his hair, her free hand opening up her Twitter app once again.

It had been a bit of a surprise to see a couple of trending hashtags had changed so quickly. What was trending now was #Dream, #Y/n,#(ship name), and #Dream's Laugh. This had to be about Y/n's short clip she posted. And by the looks of it, people had stopped acting so harsh towards Clay. But instead, they had decided to focus on the fact Dream and Y/n were hanging out together. Not to mention the fact Dream and let out a stupid little giggle because of Y/n. People had been apologizing to him through Twitter for being so hard on him.

"Babe."

"Hm?" Clay mumbled, not bothering to open his eyes.

"Pretty much everyone is apologizing to you over Twitter for being hardasses."

"Hm, that's good to hear."

"You're really tired, huh?" Y/n paused her scrolling to look down at her boyfriend.

"Yeah," He continued to mumble, followed by a short yawn.

"Alright, time for bed, babe." Y/n smiled to herself, beginning to carefully move away from Clay. "I can pack tomorrow and we can laugh over the stupid bird app tomorrow after you've gotten a good amount of sleep."

"I still can't believe Twitter tried canceling me over roleplay."

"I can't believe you got uncancelled by shippers."

Goth Gf Anon🤙

Alright, alright, alright. Since that Tech piece was fucking phenomenal a d you said you don't get any thots of your faves, I'll lend one of my Fives thots.

So, it's the end of the war, Chancellor Palpatine had been exposed for his plot against the Jedi and executed for treason. The Republic and Seperatists made peace treaties upon realizing they were played on both sides. The war is over, Fives is a war hero, a statue in front of the Jedi Temple in his honor. But he could care less when you're smiling at him, tears in your eyes with the proudest glow on your face.

The Clone production on Kamino is halted, leaving the troopers, cadets and infants in a limbo. The Senate passes a bill allowing the Clones unalienable rights, passing adoption bills allowing civilians to adopt baby clones as their own. The Jedi also demand each and every clone has their chips removed. Scientists are working on a serum to slow their aging process down back to normal.

Fives rejoiced in victory, finally happy that the war was over and his brothers were treated as humans. But you.

He was over the fucking moons that he could be with you, not a war, battles or campaigns to keep you apart.

He marries you within the week of the marriage bill being passed.

You move to Naboo, Anakin had left the Jedi Order and started a home with Padmé and his twins, they visit you often, dropping off Luke and Leia when they're off on Senate business or off doing young couple things.

Fives loves seeing you with the twins, there's just something so domestic about it. When he sees you take care of them, make them giggle, feed them. And when the Skywalkers come back and praise you for taking such good care of their babies... it stirs something primal in his gut.

You two are intimate one night-- like many after you married. He's crawling up on his peak, he's right there, his brain switches off, spit firing shit as his thrusts start to stutter like the words rolling from his tongue, thick as honey.

"Y-you-- you looked so good with those-- shit!-- those fuckin' kids!"

"Wanna make you! Fuck, baby-- I'm g-gonna m-make you a fucking mother-- oh shit!"

"Gonna fuck a baby into you, sweetheart!"

And you're thinking: "What a pleasant turn of events."

Then you just start fucking feeding him.

"Yes, yes, yes, Fives! Anything you want! We'll fucking grow old together!"

You moan, "Put a fucking baby in me, cum deep."

And he can't hold it anymore, an inhuman sound ripped out of his chest and tearing through his throat as he slams into you one more time, his spend shooting deep. 11/10 best orgasm he's had.

Afterwards, you both talk it out. You've always thought about starting a family with him, thinking about how good of a father he would be considering the way he always looked out for his brothers. Fives explains himself a little more clearer after the fact, and you decide you'll go to the med center to get your contraceptive implant removed the next time it has to be replaced. You've decided you wanted to start a family with him.

Apologies if this was lackluster, I don't usually write smut lines lol.

Ciao ;)

!!!HOLY OMTHER OF GOD

I...I- don't even know how to respond to this. it’s late I KNOW but I’ve been trying to come up with a worthy reply.

whyyyyy did I start fucking tearing up when going through each word in the first half WHY this is so beautiful and Fives deserves so much more and I love him. this is perfect, you are perfect. when he starts blurting out his desires "Wanna make you! Fuck, baby-- I'm g-gonna m-make you a fucking mother-- oh shit!" I- uh- yeah. that sent me. "What a pleasant turn of events" LMAO. ME. please write this as a fic. lackluster? mmmm no not even close. I love this

But seriously, how do I even add anymore to this already perfect droplet of heaven you so graciously placed in my inbox. tbh though, my gutter brain immediately wants to analyze how that night goes:

(18+ only!!! fluff, breeding kink, unprotected piv)

***

you were blissfully unaware of the way Fives gawked at you earlier today - how he watched you with so much love and adoration in his eyes as you giggled with Luke and cradled Leia to sleep

It didn’t feel appropriate, but he couldn’t help but get hard at the vision playing out in front of him - wholesome domesticity, soft giggles, and hushed coos filled his very own living room and he just needed to step away to take care of his painfully hard and aching erection

Fives can't help it - up until recently he was sure on having a dark fate, one that either involved being killed on the front, or worse: never being able to truly make you his because of his sole duty to fight for the Republic just would not allow such a peaceful and perfect life - it would hurt you more than he would care to live through

He didn’t realize just how badly he wanted the twins to be his - living, breathing, beautiful humans that you and him had created out of love, and, well, good fucking sex

So Fives came back from the bathroom after tugging himself raw - trying to alleviate that wanting ache that’d been sitting heavy deep in his bones and showing its face in the form of starving arousal - and the Skywalker’s had returned from Coruscant to pick up their babies

Fives hadn’t turned the corner yet - the soft voices coming from the three of you, keeping quiet while the twins were finally asleep, stopped him in his tracks. He heard the way Padmé praised you and thanked you over and over for always watching the kids, and Anakin cooing in the sweetest voice Fives had ever heard his former General speak in right at his own sleeping babies.

Your own voice was extremely soft and kind, careful as to not wake the twins up in the hand-over. Fives’ heart - and cock - were aching.

That's what Fives is thinking of as he’s pounding you into the next system - watching with hungry eyes at how your pussy so beautifully swallows his cock, yet he can't help but be slightly distracted when all these thoughts about filling you full with his seed are stemming from how motherly and breathtaking you looked when interacting with the Skywalker twins - how you always look when you’re watching them

You’re both so close to finishing - Fives groans at the way your walls squeeze unforgivingly around him as you approach your climax - a sight that is most devine to him. He’s right there as well - the relentless clenching of your cunt sure as hell pushes him right there to where he’s about to-

“Y-you looked so good with the - mmph - the twins" he doesn’t even realize he’d just voiced his thoughts aloud - albeit, in the form of a growl - until he sees how your eyes widen after struggling to come down from your first high

He’s no where near embarrassed - perhaps it was finally fucking time to let you know just how painfully hard you make him when you’re all motherly and in caretaker mode

The way your features morph from being caught in surprise to desperation and hunger completely takes the filter off of him - and he begins voicing his plans for the two of you in the heat of the moment

“Wanna - aghh- fuck a b-aby into this sweet p-pussy” his teeth are clenched tightly together as he continuously hits that exquisite spot so deep within your heat and your head is positively spinning at his shameless confessions - fuck, you want him to make good on his word.

“Fuck... you’re nearly ch-oking my cock, pretty thing,” he grits out between heavy pants. “You want me to, hm? Wanna let me - mmphh - fill you so f-fucking deep that you swell with my child?”

Your body is on fucking fire - you’ve never heard Fives speak of this before, and boy oh boy it is 100% welcome right about now. Yes, yes you want that so, so bad but you never thought to bring it up before because everything was still new with how the galaxy has changed for the better... but right now - you’re going to fucking feed him so he can have the best orgasm he’s ever had

“Yes, love, please,” you’re whimpering those three words like a prayer over and over between loud, uncontrollable moans - completely taken by him and the way he looks so gorgeous in this determined and concentrative state. “Shit, fill me up with our child,” you punctuate your mewling request with the repetition of his name - you’re hitting your climax again but this one is about to utterly wreck you like never before. “Right now.”

Fives’ eyes clamp shut and the sweat on his brow is beginning to drop from his forehead to your bare chest with how he is hovered over you - your soft but commanding words has the most gargled and loud groan erupt from deep within his chest as he stills his hips

You can feel the way his cock pulsates so far inside of you - liquid warmth spitting from the head and no doubt seeping into your cervix

You’re both completely out of breath and totally fucked-out - you think that’s the most Fives has ever cum, and you’re just staring up at him with the sweetest smile you can muster in your exhausted state

“We can talk about it more later, but...” Fives rubs at his neck after hauling himself off of you - pulling you close to his chest and wrapping his arms tightly around your torso.

“No need,” you say softly - your hands wrapping around his forearms. “I’ll have them remove the implant on my next visit.”

Your words of promise has Fives uncontrollably getting hard again

Fallen Star: Chapter 8

AO3 | FFN

[Previous Fic] [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15]

Summary: The Clone Wars have raged on for three years. With Dooku dead, the war’s end is finally within reach, and peace may come to the galaxy.

For Jedi Knight Padmé Amidala, Senator Anakin Skywalker, and Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi, the world seems to have too many other plans to let it.

[Or, a Revenge of the Sith Roleswap AU]

A/N: This is the fourth chapter I needed to port to tumblr so woo, now I just gotta update all my earlier posts and we're finally caught up.

I'm never falling behind again.

See everybody next week!

With Padmé's nightmares (visions?) and Anakin's as well, it had been rare for himself and Padmé to find a moment to breathe, a moment of respite. But here, tonight, they found it. Padmé was lightly dozing, not asleep though heading for there, and he himself was comfortable as he found his fingers running through her hair, playing with her dark curls.

He knew nightmares were too likely lately, so perhaps it was selfish when he opened his mouth to provide her with a little bit more chances of rest, and himself from having to see her once more in tears. "I've been thinking about what to name our baby."

It took a moment for her to respond. "Oh?"

Anakin nodded. "Were you going to think of one for her?"

Padmé snorted, and Anakin marveled at the fact that he had managed to make her smile when everything around them felt like it was falling apart. "What makes you so sure it's a girl?"

"You've felt her kick." He smiled. "With a kick that hard, it has to be a girl." He may have slightly been projecting how much he wanted a daddy's girl at that moment, but he didn't care.

Despite the fact that he couldn't see her face, he could only imagine the grin Padmé was wearing. "Well, my motherly intuition still says he's a boy, and since I'm the one of us with the Force, I think that means I'm right."

"I have it too." Anakin shook his head. "Just because I'm not a Jedi doesn't mean it won't tell me things either."

"If you're so sure of that fact, then you can name her if she's a girl. And I'll name him if he's a boy." He could hear the smug tone in his wife's voice. She was proud of herself for coming up with that pseudo compromise to a nonexistent fight, and he let her be. They deserved something to smile about in all this stress.

Anakin moved one of his hands to her stomach, attempting to feel for the baby once more. "Leia. If she's a girl, she'll be Leia." The name had Padmé humming in approval the moment she heard it. "Did you have one in mind?"

Padmé nodded. "An old Nabian name, Luke. It means light."

Anakin laughed. He was sure that Luke would be the light of his life once he was born. The name was fitting. "Perfect. I couldn't imagine a better name for him." Not that he would ever concede that point to Padmé, their baby was totally a girl.

They lapsed into silence after that. Despite the brief moment of cheer, Anakin could sense that Padmé was thinking, even now as they attempted to find a moment to just be happy. "What is it, Angel?"

"Ani…" Padmé sighed, realizing very quickly this wasn't a conversation he'd let her back out of. "I'm worried. Not just about the dreams, but what if...do you think our baby will be raised in a war?"

Saying yes was unimaginable. Saying no felt like a lie. "I have faith in the Jedi, and you, to end this war. Once Grievous is captured, we'll have peace." Anakin tried to ignore the guilt he felt at the war he was planning on starting himself.

Padmé started tracing patterns in his hand. "Just the Jedi?"

Anakin sighed. "I'm worried, I'm not going to lie. The Separatists are on the run, but...the Chancellor still hasn't called peace talks." He weighed his next words carefully before adding on. "And there are some of us in the Senate...we don't like how the Chancellor is handling things. He was careful not to name names. Only he would be implicated in the delegation if his wife told anybody. "I don't trust Chancellor Palpatine to do what's right even after we capture Grievous."

Padmé remained silent. He almost thought she might've fallen asleep but then she rolled over in his arms, turning to face him, her expression unreadable. "I don't want to talk about this anymore."

Her evasive answer was enough for Anakin to know that she wasn't on his side when it came to matters of Chancellor Palpatine, enough for him to know that maybe his feelings earlier were right. "Then let's talk about something else. Or, we can talk about nothing at all."

He gave her a kiss as a distraction before holding his wife in his arms.

He might have been able to convince her for a brief moment that things were okay, but his own promises were starting to ring false to his own ears as he tried to ignore what his wife might become.

-x-

When Obi-Wan had come to Anakin's rooftop apartment, he'd expected the Senator to come right to the door to greet him. Instead, he ended up seeing the gold plated protocol droid the boy had built as a child. "Oh, General Kenobi, was Master Ani expecting you. He does seem to be out of sorts lately so it's possible he might have forgotten to mention it to me. I do worry for him, you know"

"Hello Threepio." He tried to smile. It wasn't his fault that Anakin had programmed the droid to be a neurotic mess. "He won't be, but I'm sure he'll be willing to take the time."

"Of course, let me wake him up. It'll be just a moment." C-3PO began to head for a room in the back, and Obi-Wan watched him go in confusion. Wake Anakin up?

The Senator appeared moments later, letting out a yawn as he moved out of the way. The dark bags under his eyes were no more reassuring than Padmé's behavior had. "Obi-Wan, good morning."

"It's long passed morning." Obi-Wan shook his head. "Are you alright, Anakin?" The fact that Anakin had been at home and not in the Senate should have been the first sign that something was wrong, if he was honest.

Anakin nodded, but given he yawned again seconds later, it wasn't reassuring. "It's nothing important."

"Anakin."

"Really, Obi-Wan, I'm fine." Anakin smiled, and though he sensed Anakin was lying, three was little more he could do about it. He seemed unwilling to discuss it further, therefore it was better to discuss his actual reason for visiting instead.

"Very well, I'll leave you to your being alright for now then." Obi-Wan shook his head. "I didn't come here to nag you about your health anyways." Though it might be on his list of tasks in the future. Leave it to his Padawan to fall in love with somebody who had as little ability to care for himself as she did.

"That's a shame, I was enjoying the lectures." Anakin, as though sensing this would be a while, chose to sit down on the couch. "What is it that you wanted?"

"It's about Padmé."

The moment the words left Obi-Wan's mouth, Anakin immediately bolted upright with alarm, his posture becoming stiff and unyielding. "Why would you be coming here about Padmé? We're close friends and I know she's pregnant with my child but the baby doesn't mean anything like that. It was one night, we were–"

"Anakin, please don't tell me the same story that Padmé did." Obi-Wan pinched the bridge of his nose at the boy's protests. "I know that isn't why the two of you were with each other that particular night."

The way Anakin looked at Obi-Wan reminded him of a frightened animal, and Obi-Wan didn't blame him. There was no way this had been the conversation Anakin had been expecting. "I don't know what you're talking about."

"You and Padmé both have feelings for each other." He'd known from when Padmé had told him in Geonosis, and he had a feeling that they had chosen to continue acting on them after all. "It's obvious in how you both act. Whenever she's in the room it's like nobody else matters, and Padmé…whenever your name is mentioned her eyes light up." It was painfully obvious for anybody who knew these two to see exactly how they felt, and unfortunately for both of them, he knew them very well. "For her sake and yours, I've pretended I didn't know. She deserved something...someone, who made her smile during the war. And if Padmé decided not to end things with you, I trusted both of you to make the right decision."

Anakin frowned, as though really taking in what Obi-Wan said. "So you just...ignored us the entire time."

"I wouldn't take away her happiness. That wouldn't be right of me. So long as I kept pretending not to know, the Council couldn't do anything, and I wouldn't have to report it to anybody." Not that he would, even now. Obi-Wan wasn't visiting Anakin as Master Kenobi, he was visiting as Obi-Wan, an old friend.

"What changed then?" Anakin asked.

Obi-Wan sighed. This was the difficult part. "Padmé did." Anakin shifted forward, both interested in what Obi-Wan had to say and terrified to learn more. "She's been angry and terrified over her dreams, and I fear I've only done something that could make it worse." Obi-Wan hesitated on the next part. What he was about to reveal to Anakin was council business, not something for the Senate. Could he even reveal it?

The choice was taken out of his hands by Anakin's question. "What did you ask her to do, Obi-Wan?"

"Spy on the Chancellor." Once the words were out, there was no taking them back. Anakin sat in silence, a surprisingly lack of judgement on his part as he let Obi-Wan continue. "The Jedi suspect that he may not be nearly as innocent in all of this as he lets on, and Padmé's the only one close enough to him that we could ask."

Anakin was silent, struggling to come up with the words to ask what he needed to know and taking in what the council had asked. "You're worried this could push her over the brink."

"You've noticed as well?"

Anakin shook his head. "Of course I noticed. She's been doing terribly since returning back to Coruscant, especially with those dreams. She isn't going to be in the right mental space to take on a task like this." Obi-Wan remained silent, weighing his words, but before he could respond, Anakin spoke up again. "But I don't disagree with the council...something had to be done."

"But you wish it didn't involve her?" Obi-Wan could tell exactly where he was going, and Anakin nodded.

"I'm worried about her too, but I have faith in her to do what's right. Don't count Padmé out just because she's not doing well, Obi-Wan, she's strong."

"Oh I don't doubt that." Obi-Wan chuckled, seeing how fast Anakin went to jump to Padmé's defense. "But that doesn't do anything to make me less worried. I told you before that Padmé's...different now. Normally I'd trust her to do exactly as you say, but I can't help but think that if she doesn't get the help she needs…she'll become something unrecognizable."

Anakin shook his head. "I'm sorry Obi-Wan, but I don't want to talk about this."

Obi-Wan figured as much. "I'm sorry as well. I didn't mean to upset you. Both you and Padmé have been going through a stressful time. I don't need to add more to it."

Anakin let out something that looked like a cross between a sigh and a yawn. "Thank you, Obi-Wan. I'll walk you out."

Obi-Wan smiled. "No need, I can see myself out." He paused for a moment. "Do not think I wish to destroy what you have with Padmé, Anakin. If I had, I would have acted long ago." Whenever he saw the two of them, he saw himself and Satine. To ask them to break it off would be unfair.

"I know you wouldn't do that, because you love her too." Obi-Wan turned back, startled, and for a moment found himself held in place by Anakin's tired, blue gaze.

It was something that Obi-Wan had long since stopped denying. His Padawan was his closest friend, his daughter, and, eventually, sister as they grew closer. He couldn't bear to lose her, just like Anakin couldn't. Anakin would be right, he couldn't lose sight of that.

-x-

Padmé walked into the uppermost box in the Opera House with a feeling of foreboding that she couldn't ignore as she attempted to kneel next to the Chancellor. "You wanted to see me, Chancellor?"

Palpatine gave her a smile. "Of course, it won't take long. I do apologize for the venue. The news came at the most inopportune time. I'd already bought my tickets." He turned to the other Senators in the box. "If you could excuse us for a minute. And Padmé dear, do sit down. I won't take long, but a woman in your condition shouldn't be on her feet for very long."

Padmé nodded, taking a seat next to him. "What was it that you wanted to ask about?"

"It's good news, something we could all use a little more of." She perked up the moment Palpatine answered that. "Our clone intelligence units have discovered the location of General Grievous. He's hiding in the Utapau system."

Perhaps it had been that she had been talking to Anakin about the war's end, or maybe it was that she'd been so tired, but she let out a sigh of relief. "We...we can capture him. We can end the war." Her child would be born to a world where the final days of the Clone Wars were coming. Nobody could threaten her family if the war was over, nobody would want to.

"We can." Palpatine nodded. "Normally, I would ask the council to select you for this assignment, but given you are indisposed…" He trailed off. "Well, I hope they can find a Jedi as skilled as you on such short notice."

Immediately, Padmé would have suggested Obi-Wan, her master being as skilled as her, but despite how likely it was for him to go...she couldn't have it be him. She needed him here for as long as he could be. "I'm sure whoever they pick will be strong. Many Jedi have faced off against Grievous in the past. They'll be successful now too."

"I'm less certain. You know I'm not able to rely on the Jedi Council." And she did. Her mind went back to their last conversation in his office, where the Chancellor had told her of his misgivings. Then the council and Anakin shared theirs in return and she...no, she couldn't think of that right now. "If they haven't included you in their plot, they soon will."

Padmé shook her head. "Their plot?"

"You must sense what I have come to suspect. The Jedi Council want control of the Republic. They're planning to betray me."

Every word Palpatine said felt like a punch to the stomach. "The Jedi don't want power, Chancellor. They just want peace. It's what we're all taught since the creche, to provide peace wherever possible and follow the Force's will."

"Padmé, search your feelings. You know, don't you?" Despite Palpatine asking for an answer, Padmé didn't respond. How could she respond. No matter how much what he said lined up with how the Jedi Council was acting, it couldn't be right. Yoda, Mace, Luminara, Obi-Wan. They were her friends and family. They couldn't be planning a betrayal of the Republic like that. It seemed he took her silence as confirmation, for Palpatine continued. "They don't trust me, or the Senate. Or the Republic or democracy for that matter."

Padmé stayed silent for a moment, finally figuring out precisely the conclusion Palpatine had come to. "This is why you thought the Separatists might have invaded the Jedi."

He nodded. "It is. And you agree with me."

"I…" Padmé sighed. "I don't disagree. It just...it can't be the entirety of the council who are acting only in self interest. Some of them must be good."

"Some of them are, I'm sure." She wasn't sure whether she was happy or not that he was willing to concede that point. "But remember back to your early teachings. All who gain power are afraid to lose it. Even the Jedi."

"The Jedi use their power for good. They try to bring peace to the galaxy."

"And yet, all they have done is participate in this war. A war that brought them right into power in the Senate" Palpatine didn't flinch, didn't even hesitate as he answered. "Good is a point of view, Padmé. The Sith and the Jedi are similar in almost every way, including their quest for greater power."

"Even if Jedi are gaining power, they do it to protect the people." Even Padmé could admit her argument sounded weak to her own ears. "The Sith only want that power for themselves."

"And the Jedi don't?" Once more, Padmé couldn't argue. The two fell quiet, Padmé trying to ignore the nervous feeling that built up the more they talked.

"Did you ever hear the tragedy of Darth Plagueis the Wise?" She shook her head. She'd never heard of it before. "I thought not. It's not a story the Jedi would tell you. It's a Sith legend. Darth Plagueis was a dark lord of the Sith so powerful and wise, he could use the Force to influence the midi-chlorians to create life."

A Sith Lord...a Sith Lord creating life? It went against everything they'd been taught at the Temple, that Sith Lords could only destroy. It didn't make sense. Before she could ask for elaboration, however, Palpatine continued. "He had such a knowledge of the dark side, he could even keep the ones he cared about from dying."

"I don't understand." Padmé shook her head. Why would that kind of power be on the dark side? She knew the importance of letting go like all good Jedi, but wouldn't something like this be good? "That's...it's not possible."

"The dark side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural." It wasn't an answer, but…

"If he could do something so powerful...what happened?" There had to be a catch to it. It was too good.

"He became so powerful, the only thing he was afraid of was losing his power." Just like the Jedi. "Which, eventually of course, he did. Unfortunately, he taught his apprentice everything he knew. Then his apprentice killed him in his sleep. It's ironic, he could save others from death, but not himself."

Padmé remained silent. She had a lot to think about and she wasn't sure...she couldn't…

"Tomorrow night, I'd like to request you to come to my office, Padmé. I have some things I need to take care of that I could use your protection for. Some Senators, who may wish me harm."

Padmé shook her head, taking her out of her distracted thoughts. She could attend the meeting. She nodded, "Of course."

"Very good, then you should go get some rest. I'm sure this is no place for a woman in your condition."

She stood up from the chair, but paused as she went to exit, a moment of hesitation. That ability...and given her nightmares. "Where would you go about learning something like this."

There was something deliberate in Palpatine's answer as he turned to face her, the first time in their entire conversation. "Not from a Jedi."

Deleted Obi-Wan and Padmé scenes

Interesting information about Attack of the Clones (https://m.imdb.com/title/tt0121765/trivia):

“According to producer Rick McCallum, a scene was shot with Obi-Wan and Amidala swinging from one area to another, much like Luke and Leia in Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope (1977), but the scene was cut.”

In case anyone is interested, the ANH scene can be watched here: https://youtu.be/VrbvWt5kerw

And it made me thinking.

It is often argued that Obi-Wan and Padmé have little screen time together with actual interaction happening between them. In fact, quite a number of their scenes were omitted during the post-production phase. Some are small, yet clearly discernible. For example the one where they meet after a decade of being apart.

The AOTC original script depicts it as such (http://nldslab.soe.ucsc.edu/charactercreator/film_corpus/film_20100519/all_imsdb_05_19_10/Star-Wars-Attack-of-the-Clones.html):

“OBI-WAN

It's a great pleasure to see you again,

M'Lady.

PADMÉ

It has been far too long Master

Kenobi. I'm so glad our paths

have crossed again... but I must

warn you that I think your

presence here is unnecessary.

OBI-WAN

I'm sure the Jedi Council have

their reasons.”

The lines indicated with bold letters are left out of the film.

But when one revisits the final scene (https://youtu.be/Wm593Vhs3bI), the editing is evident from 1:07 to 1:11. Padmé’s lips keep moving (“I’m so glad our paths have crossed again...”), but she is muted, and we transition right to the part where she turns her attention from Obi-Wan to “Annie”.

It is bad editing. Only if Obi-Wan’s mouth was not moving at 1:12... He is probably finishing the sentence with “...have their reasons” at the end, and hence why Padmé’s attention is focused on him as well as why there is a more serious expression on her face. Otherwise why would there be such a sudden change in her mood? Literally a moment ago she was beaming at Obi-Wan. But then she calls his presence “unnecessary” by using some unfortunate wording, and the face she makes at 1:12 is probably the reaction to Obi-Wan’s polite, yet valid comeback.

When it comes to ROTS, the loss is far more substantial, and not only by the omission of the infamous scene where they kiss and embrace each other (from 1:03 https://youtu.be/xd5qQRXhoLI), which bit, in fact, can be found in the original script (https://thescriptsavant.com/pdf/StarWarsEpisode3RevengeOfTheSith.pdf):

“187 EXT. CORUSCANT -PADME'S APARTMENT-VERANDA- AFTERNOON

The cockpit of the sleek yellow Galactic Speeder opens, and a HOODED FIGURE emerges and walks onto the veranda. An ALARM GOES OFF deep in the apartment. The FIGURE stops before a security curtain that protects the veranda. C-3PO enters the veranda and approaches the FIGURE.

C-3PO: Hello, might I help you . . . Oh, it's you, Master Kenobi. Come in, quickly.

The security curtain disappears, and the FIGURE lifts his hood. It is OBI-WAN. The alarm stops sounding.

OBI-WAN: Has Anakin been here . . . ?

C-3PO: Yes . . . right after the attack on the Jedi Temple. PADME comes down the stairs in a robe. THREEPIO leaves.

PADME: Master Kenobi . . .

She embraces Obi-Wan.

PADME: (continuing) Oh, Obi-Wan, thank goodness . . . you're alive.

OBI-WAN: The Republic has fallen. Padme . . . The Jedi Order is no more . . .

PADME: I know, it's hard to believe everything to which we've dedicated our lives is gone.

OBI-WAN: I believe we have been part of a plot hundreds of years in the making.

PADME: The Senate is still intact, there is some hope.

OBI-WAN: No. Padme . . . It's over . . . The Sith now rule the galaxy as they did before the Republic.

PADME: The Sith!?!

OBI-WAN: I'm here looking for Anakin . . . When was the last time you saw him?

PADME: Yesterday. [...]”

In the end we have this scene from “When was the last time you saw him?” in the final product. Sad.

And we have also been denied the scene where Obi-Wan and Padmé have a candid conversation in her apartment. It had been shot, then did not make the cut. You can have a glimpse at it here from 6:40 to 6:44: https://youtu.be/5ihqDETf324

In the script it looks like this (https://thescriptsavant.com/pdf/StarWarsEpisode3RevengeOfTheSith.pdf):

“94 INT. CORUSCANT-PADME'S APARTMENT-LIVING ROOM- EARLY MORNING

PADME and OBI-WAN sit on one of the couches. OBI-WAN: Has Anakin been to see you?

PADME: Several times . . . I was so happy to hear he was accepted on the Jedi Council.

OBI-WAN: I know ... he deserves it. He is impatient, strong willed, very opinionated, but truly gifted.

They laugh.

PADME: You're not just here to say hello. Something is wrong, isn't it?

OBI-WAN: You should be a Jedi, Padme.

PADME: You're not very good at hiding your feelings.

OBI-WAN: It's Anakin . . . He's becoming moody and detached. He's been put in a difficult position as the Chancellor's representative . . . but I think it's more than that. I was hoping he may have talked to you.

PADME: Why would he talk to me about his work?

OBI-WAN studies her.

OBI-WAN: Neither of you is very good at hiding your feelings either.

PADME: Don't give me that look.

OBI-WAN: I know how he feels about you.

PADME: (nervous) What did he say?

OBI-WAN: Nothing. He didn't have to.

PADME is a little flustered. She stands and Obi-Wan follows. She walks to the balcony.

PADME: I don't know what you're talking about.

OBI-WAN: I know you both too well. I can see you two are in love. Padme, I'm worried about him.

PADME looks down and doesn't answer.

OBI-WAN: (continuing) I fear your relationship has confused him. He's changed considerably since we returned . . .

They stand on the balcony and look off at the early morning city. OBI-WAN starts to leave. PADME stays looking off into the distant city.

OBI-WAN: (continuing) Padme, I'm not telling the Council about any of this. I ... I hope I didn't upset you. We're all friends, I care about both of you . . .

PADME: Thank you, Obi-Wan.

OBI-WAN: Please do what you can to help him.”

And has anybody noticed that the promotional stills seem to be out of sync with the visual seen in the film? Well, probably because some parts of the material already filmed were discarded.

Such as these ones (https://thescriptsavant.com/pdf/StarWarsEpisode3RevengeOfTheSith.pdf):

“228 INT. POLIS MASSA-MEDICAL CENTER-NIGHT

The TWINS are being delivered as BAIL ORGANA, YODA, ARTOO, and THREEPIO watch. OBI-WAN is in the operating theater with PADME. He takes her hand.

OBI-WAN: Don't give up, Padme.

PADME winces from the pain. The MEDICAL DROID is holding the BABY.

MEDICAL DROID: It's a boy.

PADME: Luke . . .

PADME can only offer up a faint smile. She struggles to touch the baby on the forehead.

MEDICAL DROID: ... and a girl.

PADME: . . . Leia.

R2-D2, THREEPIO and BAIL ORGANA watch from an adjoining space.”

“230 INT. POLIS MASSA-MEDICAL CENTER-NIGHT

OBI WAN leans over PADME and softly speaks to her.

OBI-WAN: You have twins, Padme. They need you . . . hang on.

PADME: I can't . . .

PADME winces again and takes OBI-WAN's hand. She is holding Anakin's japor snippet.

OBI-WAN: Save your energy.

PADME: Obi-Wan . . . there . . . is good in him. I know there is ... still . . .

A last gasp, and she dies. OBI-WAN studies the necklace.”

A smaller one, but might be of great significance if one thinks about either the Rebel Alliance subplot or the nature of Obi-Wan and Padmé’s relationship. (https://thescriptsavant.com/pdf/StarWarsEpisode3RevengeOfTheSith.pdf)

“195 EXT. MUSTAFAR-LANDING PLATFORM-DAY

[...]

PADME: I was so worried about you. Obi-Wan told me terrible things.

ANAKIN: What things?

PADME: He said you have turned to the dark side . . . that you killed younglings.

ANAKIN: Obi-Wan is trying to turn you against me.

PADME: He cares about us.

ANAKIN: Us??!

PADME: He knows . . . He wants to help you.

ANAKIN: Is Obi-Wan going to protect you? He can't ... he can't help you. He's not strong enough.

PADME: Anakin, all I want is your love.

ANAKIN: Love won't save you, Padme. Only my new powers can do that.”

The clip from the film can be watched here: https://youtu.be/J8QLKWvVK14

From 1:28 to 1:31 there is again an odd transition as a result of getting rid of the lines “Is Obi-Wan going to protect you? He can't ... he can't help you. He's not strong enough.” Anakin’s facial expression, of smugness and and condemnation, makes more sense in this context.

And from 3:24 to 3:28 there is another line missing:

“ANAKIN: Because of Obi-Wan?

PADME: Because of what you've done . . . what you plan to do. Stop, stop now. Come back! I love you.

ANAKIN: (seeing Obi-Wan) Liar!

PADME turns around and sees OBI-WAN standing in the doorway of the Naboo Cruiser.

PADME: No!

ANAKIN: You're with him. You've betrayed me! You brought him here to kill me!

PADME: NO! Anakin. I swear ... I ...

ANAKIN reaches out, and PADME grabs her throat as she starts to choke.

OBI-WAN: Let her go, Anakin.

ANAKIN: What have you and she been up to?

OBI-WAN: Let her go!”

So, there you go. I think there could have been plenty of opportunities for them to end up in more scenes together, but whatever. Even according to Natalie Portman “All of [Obi-Wan and Padmé’s] relationship developed off screen, so between Episode II and Episode III [they have] sort of become friends, to the point where he feels comfortable coming to [Padmé] and telling [her] things that are very personal.”

Also, do we know if Obi-Wan and Padmé met between TPM and AOTC? We know for sure that Padmé and Anakin didn’t, but then the film remains silent on Obi-Wan who is referred to as an “old friend” of Padmé’s by Palpatine (http://nldslab.soe.ucsc.edu/charactercreator/film_corpus/film_20100519/all_imsdb_05_19_10/Star-Wars-Attack-of-the-Clones.html)

“PALPATINE

I realise all too well that

additional security might be

disruptive for you, but perhaps

someone you are familiar with... an

old friend like... Master Kenobi...”

His Little Girl | Bradley Bradshaw x Reader P.81

Click here to see the master list

ONE YEAR WITH HLG ANNIVERSARY!! ❤️

Hi, besties! Here is 2/2 days in a row post to celebrate our ONE YEAR with HLG. Thank you all for everything and your unconditional love and support, you all mean everything to me. I love you all so much! 💕 Happy reading and enjoy! ❤️

A/n: The boys are both finally home and the gang is all together again! How will everyone react to Baby Boy's name?

Word Count: 3.2k

Warnings: cursing, crying, panicking, making fun of Rooster, slight bullying, but so so much LOVEEE and MUSHHH 🥰

Please don't take my work, I will find you.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You and Bradley finally pulled into the driveway of your house. Jake’s truck was already in the driveway, so that meant he and Nat were already home from work. Bradley turned off the truck and looked at you. He raised his brows and smiled.

“You ready, sweetheart?”

You bit your lower lip and nodded. “Definitely.”

Bradley unbuckled himself and came around to help you. You got out of the car and stood there waiting for him. He went to open both of the back doors to start getting the boys out. He popped Luke’s car seat out and you popped baby boy B’s car seat out. Bradley took him from you and nodded towards the door. “Let’s get them inside, baby.” You walked over to the door and opened it.

You were welcomed into the house with a bunch of blue balloons and a whole dinner table full of food and desserts. Jake and Nat came running over to Welcome all four of you home.

“Holy shit, you guys!” Bradley chuckled as he set the boys down and hugged them.

“Welcome home!” They came over and hugged you. Shortly after Leia and Austin came through the door and were greeted by Jake and Nat as well.

Bradley picked up the boys and brought them over to the couch area. He sat their car seats down on the coffee table and started to remove them from their car seats. He handed Luke to Jake, who eagerly awaited holding at least one of the babies. He started to undo baby boy B’s belts. When he finally got him out he held him to his face.

“Meet our other little boy, everyone.” He grabbed his little hand and made him wave to everyone.

Everyone started to “Awwwh” at your baby boy. Bradley handed him to Nat.

“Oh my gosh. Look at them both in their little flight suits.” She sat on the couch next to Jake as they looked at the boys eagerly. Austin sat next to Nat and wrapped his arm over her shoulders. Leia sat next to her uncle Jake and looked at her little brother.

You sat on the single sofa and finally felt relaxed to be home. Bradley came over and sat on the arm of the chair. He leaned back and put his arm behind you. He kissed the top of your head as you both watched them all get to know your boys.

“Rooster, how can you tell them apart? They look exactly alike.” Jake laughed and looked at Bradley.

He looked down at you and you nodded. He looked back up to all of them as they looked at Bradley for his answer. “Well, we dressed them accordingly.” He chuckled.

“Bradshaw. They are wearing the same exact thing. What are you talking about?” Nat laughed.

Bradley shook his head, “Their initials are on each of their onesies. All of their clothes are like that so they don’t ever get mixed up.” He started to laugh as he leaned into you.

“Oh, you’re right!” Jake held Luke in one hand on his lap as he ran his free hand’s index finger over the little initials embroidered onto Luke’s little onesie. “L.N.B.” He smiled. “Luke Nicolas Bradshaw.” He chuckled cleverly.

Austin leaned into Nat’s back. “Baby Boy B still only has B.B.B on his though?” They all looked up at you and Bradley.

“Does he not have a name yet?” Nat raised her brow at the both of you.

Bradley rolled his eyes and sighed, “He does, I told you all that. His initials just happen to be the same as baby boy B. It was not planned. Well, kind of.” Bradley furrowed his brows and smiled at you. “You wanna tell them his name, sweetheart?”

You giggled and shook your head, “No, honey. You can tell them.”

He nodded and kissed the top of your head. “Okay.”

Jake scoffed, “Can someone just tell us his name already. I’m dying to know.” He laughed and Nat looked over at him with narrowed eyes.

“Rush much, Bagman.” She chuckled and shook her head.

Austin looked at you and Bradley. “What’s the handsome fellow’s name?” He placed his index finger into baby boy b’s hand.

Bradley looked at you one more time before looking at them and smiling. He licked his lips and bit his bottom one and let out a little chuckle.

“His name is Bradley.”

Jake palmed his forehead, “Oh you have got to be shitting me.” Leia slapped her uncle Jake’s arm.

“Uncle Jakey that’s not nice.” Jake placed a kiss on Leia’s head.

“I’m sorry, honey. You’re right. I apologize.”

Austin chuckled. “Bradley.”

Nat smiled at Bradley. “After you, huh?”

Bradley nodded and smiled. “Yup.”

Hangman looked over baby Bradley’s little flight suit, “There are three Bs, Rooster. Don’t leave us on a cliff hanger now.” He chuckled and looked up at Bradley with a mischievous grin.

Bradley leaned back and started to laugh. “Yup. Our triple B.”

“Well?” Jake raised his brows at Bradley. “His name?”

Bradley smiled really big, “Bradley Bradford Bradshaw.”

Jake put his eyes into his hand and pinched the bridge of his nose, “Holy shit, Bradshaw.” He shook his head in his hand.

Nat had her mouth wide open in a grin and blinked her eyes slowly. She was trying to hold back her laughter.

Austin had his hand over his mouth, but you and Bradley could both see he was hiding a huge smile behind it. He looked down and over at Natasha. She still had her mouth wide and her eyes even wider.

“Come on, Bradshaw.” Jake started to chuckle.

Leia jumped up from her place by her uncle Jakey. She placed her hands on her head and jumped around. “DADDY HE’LL BE BULLIED!”

You looked up at Bradley and started to laugh loudly. He pushed his lips in a line and looked down.

Jake finally looked up at Bradley, “Did you pick his name, Bradshaw? You know names are permanent?” He made his eyes wide.

Bradley licked his lips and looked up at his friends. He had a small smirk on his face.

“Rooster… Is this a joke? Are you messing with us? Or are you for real?” Nat narrowed her eyes at Bradley.

Bradley raised his eyebrows in shock. “I’m not kidding. That is baby boy’s name.”

Nat’s look turned into a soft smile. “I personally love it.”

Austin lightly scratched at baby Bradley’s stomach, “Hey, baby Brad.”

Jake shook his head and looked at Bradley with a raised brow. “You and your old man have the same sick sense of humor.” Jake started to laugh and Bradley joined. “That’s one hell of a name, Bradshaw.” Jake smiled and looked over at baby Bradley.

“We have a Brad Brad and now we have a Brad cubed,” Nat said in a baby voice to baby Bradley as she caressed his cheeks.

Leia went over to her little brother and looked at him with concern. “Bradley Bradford Bradshaw…” She pushed her lips together and looked at you and Bradley. “It kinda has a ring to it.” She giggled and placed a kiss on her baby brothers head. “I love you either way triple Brad.”

You laid against Bradley and started to laugh, “You sure picked a hell of a name, babe.”

He leaned down and kissed your head, “I had to continue the tradition my dad started. Wouldn’t be fair if it ended with me.”

“I love you, Bradley. You are crazy.” You sighed and relaxed into his hip.

“I love you, sweetheart.”

———-

Bradley’s POV

I was sitting with you on the couch. You were pumping to see if you could get any milk out. I was holding both of the boys while Leia laid her head on my lap. The boys were fast asleep, their mouths slightly open, laying on my chest and holding hands. I chuckled and called for you, “Baby, look. They’re holding hands.” You looked over and saw their little hands intertwined with each other.

You gasped, “Oh my gosh, They are so precious.” Leia got up from my lap and looked.

“That is so cute! Braddy and Lukey are holding hands!” She leaned in and kissed their heads. “Daddy, when were they born?”

I looked at the boys and then back at Leia. “They were born on July 12th.” I smiled at Leia.

Her eyes lit up and she gasped, “That’s near my birthday!”

I nodded and reached my hand out for her face. I caressed her cheek, “It is, my love. What do you want to do for your birthday?”

She tapped her finger to her chin as she thought about it. “I really want to go home and see my uncles, Papa Mav, Penny, and my friends… but I know we can’t…” She started to think again. “Hmm.” She looked down and kept thinking.

I looked over at you and you were looking at Leia sadly. You and I both knew how much she missed everyone back in San Diego.

“Oh I know! Can we all just watch movies in the backyard?” Leia looked up at me with her puppy eyes.

I smiled, “That’s all you want to do, baby?” I raised my brows at her.

She nodded with a big smile on her face. “I know you and momma will be busy with baby Brad and Luke, so I just wanna watch movies with everyone and cuddle, Daddy.” She interlocked her fingers together and placed her hands on her cheek.

I chuckled, “Are you positive, Leia Rey?”

You tickled her side slightly, “You don’t wanna have a party, baby? You’re going to be turning 7!”

She shook her head with a smile, “I just want to be home with my family, momma.”

You furrowed your brows and looked at me. I pushed my lips together and we both looked at Leia.

“Okay, Leia girl. Movies on your birthday with the family it is.” I caressed her cheek and then placed my hand back on Luke’s back.

———-

Later on that night, we started to get the kids ready for bed. Phoenix gave Leia a bath and changed her into pajamas for bed. You and I gave the boys their first bath at home. I was fucking nervous. I had never given such a small human; nonetheless, TWO a bath before. Thank god you were there to help.

First up was little Brad. I placed him on the bed and started to remove his onesie. “All right little man. Left arm… and right arm…” I smiled as I removed his little arms from each sleeve. I picked him up and placed a couple of kisses on his cheek. “I love you, little Brad.” A little grin peered across his face and I used everything in me to hold back my tears. I placed him back down on the bed and wrapped him in his towel. I picked him up and held him in the palms of my hands as I walked over to you. You were filling up his little tub with water.

“Special delivery, mama.” I rubbed the tip of my nose with his and clicked my tongue quietly at him. You watched him and me in the reflection of the mirror. I kept rubbing my nose against his little face as I cooed over him. “I love you, my baby. You and your brother are so perfect.” I kissed his cheek over and over again causing another smile to appear on his face. “Ahhhh, there’s a sight to see. I love you, Bradley.” I smiled at him, still holding my tears back.

You laid your head on my arm and smiled as you poked our son’s nose. “Water is ready, Daddy.”

I started to unravel the towel from around our son. I undid his diaper and slowly started to submerge him into the water. I held his head and cupped water into my palm and washed it over his body.

You wrapped your arms around my waist and laid your head on me as you watched. “You look like a natural, babe. Look at him. So relaxed, not a care in the world.” I could hear a smile crack across your face. “My perfect boys.” You looked over to the bassinet next to us where Luke was lying fast asleep.

“Am I doing the right, sweetheart?” I looked slightly over at you as I kept cupping water over our son’s body. You nodded slowly. You pointed to the soap and little washcloth.

“Go ahead, honey.” You smiled and encouraged me. “You got this.”

I nodded and grabbed the washcloth. I placed it into the water and placed it on Little Brad’s chest. I grabbed the soap and put little dollops of it onto the washcloth. I rubbed it softly as the suds started to form. I started to wash his little body slowly. He relaxed into the palm of my hand. This was the icing on the cake. I couldn’t hold back anymore. I cried. Hard.

I chuckled as tears fell from my eyes. “Oh my gosh. I’m doing it, sweetheart.” I sniffled before my snot could drip. “This is so cool.” You and I started to laugh.

“You are doing it perfectly, Bradley. You are the best dad in the world.” You kissed my arm and rubbed it. “I love you so much.” You looked at me through the mirror and I looked up back at you. We shared a smile.

“I love you, y/n, Forever.”

After I finished little Brad’s bath, you took him back to the bed to prepare him for bed. I started to get Luke ready for his bath. “All right little man, you’re up next!” I smiled. I swaddled him in his towel as I replaced the water in the tub with new clean water.

I picked up Luke and he pushed around a little bit. I bounced him in my arms and rocked him as I shushed him. I rubbed the bridge of his nose gently with the tip of my index finger. “You’re okay, Luke. Daddy’s got you.” I placed a kiss on his forehead and rocked him for a little bit. I checked the water temperature and it was perfect. I started to unravel Luke from his towel. I took off his diaper and placed him into the water.

He started to fuss. My eyes went wide. “Holy shit.” I started to cover him with water and tried to console him. “You’re okay buddy. Daddy’s here. We are just gonna take a quick bath and then you’ll be back in some warm clothes in your warm bed.” He started to whine quietly. It broke my fucking heart.

“Heyyyy. Shhhhh. It’s okay baby boy. I’ve got you. Shhhhhh.” I started to wash his body trying to be quick.

You came over and wrapped your arms around my waist. “Do we have our first little temper tantrum, Mr. Bradshaw?” You giggled as you watched me panicking as I washed Luke.

I sighed, “It seems so, Mrs. Bradshaw.” I looked at you with sad puppy eyes. “Please help me, mama.”

You giggled and patted my hip and replaced my hands with yours. “I’ll take it from here, Daddy.” You placed a kiss on Luke's little head and washed him slowly. “It’s okay, baby. Mommy’s here.”

I placed one hand on your waist and the other against the counter. I watched as you gave Luke a bath. You were literally an expert. He was still fussy, but not as fussy as he was with me. Then it happened. He opened his little eyes. The first time he or little Brad had done it.

You gasped. “Oh my gosh…. Bradley…Look…” His little eyes were beaming up at you. When he saw you, his fussing stopped completely.

I chucked. “A mama’s boy this one is going to be.” I looked at you with so much love welling in my chest. “But who wouldn’t? Their mama is perfect.”

You looked up at me through the mirror and blushed. I smiled at you and kissed your cheek.

“Oh. No. Freaking. Way.” You started to laugh.

I smiled, “What, babe?”

You looked back at me and shook your head. “It seems to me that the Bradshaw boys have inherited those pretty green eyes you have.”

My eyes went wide as well as my mouth. I looked at you shocked. “YES!” I pumped my fists into the air. “Sorry, sweetheart. You’re screwed now. 4 pairs of puppy dog eyes begging you for more brownies?” I chuckled. “You stand NO CHANCE in this household.” I squinted my eyes at you. “How’s it feel to be the only brownie in this family?” I raised a brow at you.

You smiled sweetly and kissed my lips softly. “Makes me feel unique. For once.”

I raised my brows and chuckled. “I love that, baby.”

You finished up with Luke’s bath and brought him over to the bed to get him ready for bed. I laid on the bed and watched as you got him ready. You picked him up and gave him a couple of kisses before placing him in his bassinet.

You kissed both little Brad and Luke’s cheeks. “Good night, boys. Mommy loves you so much.”

I got up and went over to them. I gave each of their bellies little rubs. “Good night, lady killers. Daddy will see you in a couple of hours for feeding.” I placed a kiss on each of them.

I wrapped my arm around your shoulder as we stood there watching them sleep. I kissed your cheek. “Shall we go and say good night to our Princess Leia?”

You looked up at me and nodded. “Let's.”

We left the bedroom door open and walked down to Leia’s room. Hangman, Austin, and Phoenix were in there reading a bedtime story to her. I knocked on the door and they all looked over.

“We came to say good night to our little girl.” Leia sat up in her bed smiling at you and me.

Hangman, Austin, and Phoenix stood up and moved over. Hangman patted my back. “We are gonna go say good night to the boys.” He winked at us while he, Phoenix, and Austin made their way to our room down the hall.

We sat at the side of Leia’s bed and gave her kisses. “Good night, my princess Leia. I love you so much.” You pinched her cheek and kissed her over and over again.

“Mama!” She giggled. “I love you.”

You started to tuck her in as I sat next to her. I pushed her curls from her face and smiled at her. She relaxed against my hand and rubbed her cheek into my palm.

I smiled and leaned in to kiss her nose. “I love you, sweetheart. Sweet dreams.” I rubbed the tip of my nose with hers. We both scrunched our noses and shared a giggle. “You are perfect, Leia Rey.”

She smiled up at me and blushed. “I love you, Daddy. Always.”

I kissed her cheek over and over again. “You have my heart, Leia Rey. Forever.”

Leia’s 7th Birthday

You and Bradley stood there excited as you could see Leia approaching with everyone else. Jake was hauling a wagon with games in it, while Nat and Austin each held one of the boys. Leia was skipping over to the area. She hadn’t noticed it was for her yet.

Right when she reached the top of a sand dune she smiled and pointed over to the party area, saying something back to the three adults with her. She was smiling as she pointed and you could see Jake nudge her to go take a look at this “Luau Area.” She started to run over and when she saw you and Bradley standing there at the beginning of the entrance she stopped dead in her tracks. Her eyes went wide and her jaw dropped. She covered her mouth and started to cry.

Jake, Nat, Austin, and the boys caught up with her and she stood there frozen with tears running down her cheeks. You started to tear up and you could hear Bradley sniffling. You could see Austin crouch down next to her then placed a kiss on her cheek and nudged her to come over to her party. She gave Austin, Nat, and Jake a hug before she ran over to you and Bradley.

She ran and slammed into you and him. Everyone yelled “Happy Birthday, Leia!” As you and Bradley got down on your knees and hugged your daughter.

Bradley kissed Leia’s head over and over again as you hugged her. “Happy Birthday, my girl. Daddy loves you so much.” He held the both of you in a bear hug.

When you all pulled apart, you placed your hand on Leia’s cheek, wiped her tears, and fixed her hair. “Happy Birthday, My love. I love you, always.” You smiled at her and placed a kiss on her forehead. “Now go and have some fun, baby.” You placed one more kiss on her head as she nodded.

She looked over at her party and got shy when she saw all her guests. Everyone yelled in surprise when they saw her making her way over to the party. You and Bradley made your way over to Jake, Nat, and Austin. You and Bradley grabbed the boys from Nat and Austin. You gave them all a hug and thanked them for watching the boys and keeping Leia occupied while you and Bradley set up for Leia’s Luau. You all made your way down the beach as Leia greeted all her guests. Bradley handed Luke back to Nat so that he could help Jake set up all the games that were in the wagon.

You smiled and kissed little Brad on his cheek, “It’s your big sissy’s birthday!” You grabbed one of his little hands and bounced him around. A little grin appeared on his face.

Nat was holding a sleeping Luke to her chest as you both watched on the party. Austin joined Bradley and Jake to help set up games. You smiled as Leia jumped around with some of her friends from school and said hi to more of her guests. You looked at Nat and smiled.

“I have a huge surprise for Leia. I hope she’s going to love it.” You looked back at your daughter as she ran around her party with her friends.

Nat came closer to you and patted little Brad’s back. “What did you get for her?” She smiled with curiosity.

You chuckled. “Not what, Nat. Who?” You widened your eyes at her as she looked at you confused. “Well actually, It’ll be a little gift for everyone.” You smiled back at her as she raised her brows at you.

“Is that who, here already? Is there gonna be like a clown or something? Or is Bagman just going to be the clown to perform?” Nat started to laugh as you both looked over at the boys trying to figure out how to set up the games. She shook her head, “God, there are three of them and they can’t figure out how to set those things up.”

You both laughed as you watched all three of them snatch the instruction sheet out of each others hands trying to explain to one another how to put the games together. You shook your head and looked back at Nat. “Close. But he wont be the clown of entertainment.”

She looked at you with furrowed brows. “Then who?”

You smiled and waved over to Bradley and the guys, “You’ll see soon, Nat.”

Bradley and the guys came running over to you. Jake looked frustrated as he still held onto the instructions, Bradley was smiling like a big goof at you, and Austin looked at Jake awkwardly.

“Honey, Jake is so mad because he can’t figure out how to put the game together.” Bradley looked at Jake and laughed.

Jake rolled his eyes and crumpled up the instructions, “Well I am paired with the dumbest pilot and the guy that gives grown men sponge baths.”

Bradley laughed, “I don’t think you’re the dumbest pilot, Seresin. But definitely on the list.”

Jake looked at him with wide eyes and shoved him as they both laughed. “Jerk.” Jake shook his head and threw the crumpled paper at Bradley’s head.

“I don’t give grown men baths for a living… What do you think I do?” Austin looked up at Jake with confused yet scared eyes.

Bradley and Jake looked at each other and laughed as they pulled Austin in for a hug. “Bradshaw is a grown man and you gave him a bath. So, I wasn’t completely wrong about your job, Aus.” Jake patted him on the chest.

Austin just shook his head and shrugged.

Bradley brought his attention back to you and Nat who were standing there with shocked expressions on your faces.

“What circus act did I just witness?” Nat looked at all three of them with wide eyes and a blank stare.

Jake came over and wrapped his arm over Nat’s shoulders. “Your favorite one, that you are stuck with for the rest of your life.” Jake smiled big as Nat palmed her forehead.

Austin took little Brad from you as Bradley came over and hugged you and gave you a kiss on your cheek. “What’s up, sweetheart?”

You smiled and nodded over towards the party. “I have a surprise for Leia and it’s ready!’ You bit your lips and jumped slightly of excitement.

Bradley looked at you with furrowed brows, “Surprise? There is more?”

You nodded, “YES!”

You pulled Bradley over to the party, “Wait… babe, what else did we get her!?”

Nat, Jake, Austin, and the boys followed behind you and Bradley into the party.

You and Bradley stood in the middle of the party guests. Bradley leaned down and whispered in your ear, “Babe, what did we get Leia??” Brady sounded so concern and worried.

You giggled and patted his chest, “Don’t worry about it, babe.”

He looked up confused and then smiled at the guests and waved as you caught everyone’s attention.

“Hi everyone! Bradley and I just wanted to thank everyone for coming out and being able to make it for our little girl’s 7th birthday. We are all excited to be able to celebrate the coming of not only our little girl, but the day our family was formed.” You looked up at Bradley and smiled. He kissed your forehead.

Bradley looked up at the guests. “This is my first official time I get to spend with my little girl on her special day.” He got down on his knee and opened his arms to Leia. “And I can’t wait to spend the rest of them with you, baby girl.” Leia smiled and ran over to Bradley. He caught her in his arms and picked her up and kissed her over and over again. “I love you, my Leia Rey. happy birthday, Sweetheart.”

Leia smiled at her dad as everyone started to coo over their little moment. “Thank you, daddy. I love you.” Leia kissed Bradley’s cheek.

You went over and placed a kiss on Leia’s hand and smiled. “Daddy and I… Well I have a gift for daddy and you, Leia Rey.”

Bradley and Leia both looked at you confused with the same exact facial expression. You reached your hand out for Nat. She came over smiling while Jake and Austin followed behind. “I actually have a gift for all of you.”

Everyone smiled at you with curious eyes. “Without further stalling.” You looked over to the entrance where their gifts were all setting up. “I know how much you miss home, baby.” You held out your hand to their gifts and everyone turned slowly. “Happy Birthday, Leia Rey. I love you.”

Bradley, Leia, Nat, Austin, and Jake all looked to where you where holding your hand out. There stood Mav, Penny, and Amelia dressed in all matching Hawaiian printed shirts and dresses.

Bradley dropped Leia down to her feet as they both yelled. “Papa Mav!” “MAV!” Bradley and Leia both bee-lined for Mav, Penny, and Amelia. Bradley playfully pushed Leia over into the sand so he could get to them first.

“DADDY!!!” Leia started to stand up laughing.

Bradley ran ahead and bear hugged Mav, Penny, and Amelia. “Oh my god! I missed you all so freaking much!”

Mav patted Bradley’s back. “It’s good to see you up and running, kiddo.”

Penny kissed Bradley’s cheek, “Oh, Rooster! You look so good! Mav had told me what happened and you are looking so good, honey!”

Amelia hugged Bradley tightly, “I’m glad you’re okay!”

Leia joined the group and squished herself into the group hug. “YOU’RE ALL HERE!” She screamed at the top of her lungs. Bradley took a step back and let Leia get her turn with them.

Mav picked up Leia and covered her in kisses. “Oh my little Jedi! You are so big!! Look at you! Happy birthday, sweetheart!”

Penny joined in on the hug and kissed Leia’s head over and over again, “My Princess Leia! I missed you so much! Happy birthday, pretty girl!” Penny pushed Leia’s hair from her face as Leia began to cry happy tears.

Mav let Leia down and she hugged Amelia tight. “I’m so happy you are all here!”

“Happy birthday, Leia!” Amelia gave Leia a present. Leia grabbed Amelia’s hand and ran her over to her friends. “Thank you! I wanna introduce you to my friends!!”

———-

Bradley’s POV

I made my way back over to you and grabbed little sleeping Luke from Phoenix as you grabbed little Brad from Austin so they could all go and say hello to Mav and Penny.

I watched as Hangman ran like a giddy little kid in the candy store to Mav. He had his hands flailing around and he was yelling, “MAV! PENNY!” he jumped into them and Phoenix followed behind with her hands in the air. She wrapped her arms around all three of them smiling. Austin joined in after Hangman and Phoenix got their fill with hugs.

Mav came over to us and was stopped by Phantom and Evelyn. Mav’s eyes went wide and he pulled Phantom in for a hug. “It’s good to see you again, handsome!”

Mav laughed and patted his back. “I wouldn’t miss this for the world! You remember Penny?”

Phantom gasped and threw his arms out for Penny, “Penny Benjamin! You still look as you did back when we were all getting in trouble! You remember my wife, Evelyn?”

Penny screamed when she saw Evelyn and they hugged and caught up while Mav and Phantom made their way over to you and I.

I walked away for a second to grab bottles for little Brad and Luke. Mav made his way over and gasped as he saw you holding little Brad. I watched from a far as his eyes flew out of his head.

———-

Your POV

Mav came up to you with wide eyes and covered his mouth. In a high-pitched voice, he cooed over little Brad. “Ohhh my gosh! Is this himmm!?” He grabbed his little hands and gave Brad’s little knuckles kisses. “Hey, little Luke!”

Your eyes widened and you started to chuckle. “Mav…”

“Penny! Come here! They have a surprise to show you!” Mav called and waved over Penny. She came over excitedly.

“What’s the surprise?” Her jaw dropped and her eyes went wide when she looked at you holding little Brad. “Whose baby is that, y/n?” She looked at you with squinted eyes. you started to giggle. “Y/n? Whose baby is that??” Her eyes widened when she looked at you.

You smiled and Mav rubbed his index finger on his cheek causing little Brad to grin. “Can I hold him, y/n?” He started to tear up and you smiled.

“Of, course you can, Mav. This is one of your grand-babies.” You handed little Brad over to Mav. Mav started to shake with him in his arms.

“Grand-babies??” Penny was shocked and she started to tear up. “When the heck were you pregnant, y/n!?” She came over and gave you a hug, she held you tight as she patted your hair.

“I was pregnant during my wedding, and even before that.” you hugged her back and giggled.

She pulled back and covered her mouth, “WHAT!! I knew it! Those were not wedding nerves!” She pulled you back in tight and held you close. “God, you hid it so well, honey! Congratulations, he’s so beautiful!” She kissed your cheek and joined Mav admire and coo over little Bradley.

“What’s his name?” Penny looked up at you and smiled. As you were about to say his name

Mav interjected. “Luke.”

Penny looked up at you and smiled. “That’s a beautiful name! Luke and Leia!”

Mav nodded, “The little Jedis! His full name, Luke Nicolas Bradshaw.” He smiled down at little Bradley in his arms.

You looked around and bit your lip. “uhhh.”

Mav and Penny looked up at you and smiled. “What’s wrong, y/n?” Mav chuckled.

Bradley finally made his way back over with the bottles for the boys. “Here you go babe, one for you and one for me.” He smiled down at you as he cradled little Luke in his arms. You both looked over at Penny and Mav. They looked down at little Bradley and then back at Bradley holding Luke slowly.

Mav’s brows were furrowed as he looked back and forth between the baby in his arms and the one in Bradley’s arms. Penny was blinking at you and Bradley as she pointed to the baby in his arms. “Whose baby is that?”

You and Bradley started to laugh. Mav stood there frozen. “Uhhh, Rooster? Y/n? Whose baby is that?” Penny was still waiting for an answer.

Bradley shrugged and popped the bottle into Luke’s mouth. “Surprise!” He smiled at the both of them with wide eyes. Mav and Penny looked at each other with wide eyes.

“We had twins.” You started to laugh as they looked at each other in shock. They looked back at you and raised their brows.

“TWINS?!”

You nodded as Bradley handed Luke to Penny.

“Congratulations, you two. More grandkids to watch!” Bradley laughed as they both looked down at the boys still shocked.

“Holy. Shit.” Mav said as he looked between little Brad and Luke. Penny continued to feed Luke and you handed little Brad’s bottle to Mav so he could feed him. “Wait. So who do I have?”

Penny looked up and raised her brows. “Who is who and what are their names?” She was still shocked.

Bradley went behind them and wrapped his arms around their shoulders. “Penny, you are holding our little Luke. Luke Nicolas Bradshaw. And Mav. you are holding our little Bradley.”

They both looked up at Bradley. Penny and Mav both started to tear up. “Bradley? You named him Bradley too?” Mav started to tear up even more.

Bradley smiled. “Yup. Bradley Bradford Bradshaw.”

Mav started to laugh and cry hard. “God, you are just like your old man.”

Bradley nodded his head and started to laugh. “They are beautiful, Rooster.” Penny cooed over the boys as she cried.

Penny and Mav didn’t want to give anyone the chance to have the boys. They wanted to spend the whole party with them. You looked over periodically and watched as Mav held little Bradley in his hands and looked at him in awe. You watched as Penny took in every single detail of Luke’s face.

You nudged Bradley and pointed over to Mav and Penny. “Look at them, Brad. They can’t take their eyes off of them.” You chuckled and smiled. You looked up at Bradley and watched him smile goofy.

“They’re in love.” He started to laugh. “They are the most handsomest boys ever. How could you not look at them like that?” Bradley looked down at you and placed a kiss on your head. “They get their glowing looks from their mama.” He smiled and rubbed his thumb on your cheek.

You shook your head and smiled while placing your hand on his, “They look exactly like their dad. They’re handsome because of you.”

Leia came over and tugged on Bradley’s shirt. Bradley looked down at her and smiled before he picked her up. He placed a kiss on her cheek, “What’s up, my girl?”

She pointed over to her papa Mav, “Papa Mav is summoning you, daddy.”

Bradley laughed and let Leia down. “Thank you, sweetheart.” Bradley gave you a kiss before he left to go and sit with Mav and Penny. “Be back in a bit, babe. Go and enjoy yourself. Grandpa is calling for me.”

———-

Bradley’s POV

I made my way over to Mav, dodging a couple of kids that were running around spraying each other with water guns. I chuckled and smiled as Mav looked up at me.

“You rang?” I plopped myself down on a chair next to Mav and Penny.

“Bradley.” Mav couldn’t take his eyes off of little Brad. “This is incredible. They boys are perfect. They look like a perfect mixture of you and y/n.” He looked up at me and smiled.

I shook my head and laughed. “Y/n said they look exactly like Leia Rey when she was a baby, so she thinks they look exactly like me.” Then little Brad started to fuss. I watched as Mav frowned and gave baby Brad a pouty lip. “I got him.” I smiled and put my hands out to grab him.

Mav handed him to me, “Let’s see, Daddy Bradley at work!” He chuckled as he watched me console little Brad.

I gave little Brad a kiss on his lips and laid him against my chest, “You’re alright, baby. Daddy is here.” I started to rub his back and rock him slowly back and forth. I laid my head gently against his head as he started to calm down in my arms.

Mav leaned forward in his chair and rested his elbows on his knees. He chuckled. “Man, you are just like your old man.” He smiled over at me and patted my back.

I smiled back and continued to rock little Brad in my arms. “Thanks, Mav. They would have loved them. All three kids are perfect.”

Mav smiled and nodded as he placed a hand on little Brad’s back. “Most definitely. Goose and Carole would have been all over all three of them.”

————-

As the party continued, Mav continued to help me watch the boys as you and Penny caught up and made sure Leia was having a great time at her birthday party.

(Summer Nights by Iration playing in the background)

I stood by the snacks table picking off a couple of cookies here and there as I held little Brad and rocked him to the beat of the music. Mav joined me and did the same with Luke. We made some small talk and he complimented Leia’s Luau set up.

“Papa Mav!” Leia came running over with a couple of sea shells in her hand. He smiled at her and squatted down.

“What’s up, my little Jedi?” He placed his hand on her cheek as he continued to hold Luke close to him.

“I brought you some sea shells to put on your work bench when you get home!” She held her hands out and was showing them all to Mav. “Here, Papa!” She was trying to put them into his hand.

I laughed and patted Leia’s head. “Sweetheart, how about you go and ask momma for a bag so you can put them in there for safe keeping?”

She smiled up at me and nodded, “Good idea, daddy! His hands are already full with Luke!” She kissed Luke’s head before she ran her way over to you. I laughed and shook my head.

Leia came back with the bag full of shells, “Daddy, do you think we can play a game together? Or even make a sand castle!?” She smiled up at me excitedly.

“Of course we can, sweetheart. Let me ask Aunt Nix if she can hold your baby brother first, okay?” She nodded up at me and pointed to a pile of sand.

“I’ll meet you by the sand hill! Papa Mav, ask momma if she can hold Luke so you can help us!” She ran for the sand hill and waited patiently with her friends and Amelia.

Mav and I made our way over to you, Penny, and Phoenix. I kissed your cheek and smiled. “I apologize for the interruption, but would you ladies care to care for these handsome boys while papa Mav and I help the birthday girl with a sand castle?” I smiled at the three of you as you started to take little Brad from my arms.

“Of course, we wouldn’t mind!” Phoenix grabbed Luke from Mav and kissed his cheek over and over again. “I was needing some time with my favorite little men.” Phoenix started to coo at Luke.

I pointed over at Hangman and Austin as they played a mean game of corn hole. “Oh but your favorite little men are over there?”

She looked over at them annoyed and looked back at me, “Fuck off, Bradshaw.”

I covered Luke’s ears, “Geez Trace, babies…” I widened my eyes at her and laughed. She rolled her eyes and I laughed, “Thank you, ladies!”

Mav and I made our way over to Leia. “Daddy, can we burry Papa Mav instead? I want to make him into a mermaid!” Leia looked up at us excitedly.

I looked over at Mav and he looked terrified. I laughed and patted his chest, “What do you say papa Mav?” I raised my brow at him and he nodded.

“Anything for my little Leia.” He gulped and laid down on the floor. Leia gave him a towel to lay on as all the kids started to pile sand onto him.

———-

Your POV

You looked around for Leia for a while because it was time for her cake. You remember that Bradley said they were going to make a saddle castle with her. You walked down the the water and saw there was a group of kids, Jake, Austin, Leia, and Bradley standing around and laughing. You made your way over and patted Bradley’s back.

“Hey, babe…. Oh my god.” You stood there trying to hold in your laughter. You looked down and saw Mav covered in sand and shaped like a mermaid. “What did you guys do to Mav?” You covered your mouth and Mav pushed his lips together.

“Sweetheart it’s okay to laugh. They’ve been laughing at me for the last 20 minutes.” Mav looked at you with ‘help me’ eyes.

You started to laugh and then you felt bad and got your self together. “I came over here because we are ready to do Leia Rey’s cake.” You were still trying to hold in your laughter.

Leia jumped up and screamed. “AH! Finally! Let’s go Papa Mav! It’s cake time!” Leia grabbed your hand and started to drag you and little Bradley to the tent area with all of her guests waiting for her patiently. Her friends all ran behind and followed you three.

Bradley stayed back with Jake and Austin to help Mav out of the sand. They all dusted him off and they all wrapped their arms around each other shoulders as they laughed and made fun of Mav up to the tent.

Phoenix handed Luke to Bradley as she and Austin went to grab the cake. You were standing at the table with little Brad in your arms and Leia bouncing excitedly in front of you. Bradley came over to the three of you while he cradled Luke in his embrace. Leia gestured for you both to come down to her level. She kissed each of her brother’s on their head. “I love you, babies.” She smiled and patted their heads gently. You and Bradley looked at each other and smiled. He had tears in his eyes. He was so in love with his kids.

Phoenix and Austin finally brought the cake over and lit the candles.

“Okay everyone! On three! Ready? One, Two, Three!” Phoenix guided everyone into inning happy birthday. You all sang happy birthday to Leia. She was smiling big at everyone. She was full of joy and love. Her eyes were huge as she was staring at her cake.

Bradley got on his knee and kissed Leia’s cheek after you all finished singing happy birthday. “Make a wish my girl.”

She closed her eyes and blew out her candles. “Can I say what i wished for?” She smiled at you and Bradley.

“But what if it doesn’t come true, babe?” Bradley raised his brow at Leia.

Leia smiled and shrugged, “I think it is already happening, daddy. I wished for us to always be together. Me, you, Momma, Luke, Bradley, and Gunner. Forever.” She smiled slightly as everyone gasped at her wish.

You and Bradley got down on a knee and kissed Leia over and over again. “We will always be together, sweetheart. Forever and ever.” Bradley caressed her cheek and kissed her head.

“I love you, Leia Rey. Happy birthday, my big girl.” You kissed her cheek over and over making sure each kiss was louder and harder each time.

Everyone took their pictures of you and your family. Eventually everyone got to take their turns with taking pictures with Leia and her cake. You and Bradley stepped aside, you had tears in your eyes. Bradley pulled you in and kissed the top of your head and the boys heads.

“It’s us forever, honey. Seven years of our family. Even though I have only been present for one.” You both started to giggle. “I love you, babe, forever. Thank you for blessing me with a baby girl as great and perfect as Leia.” Bradley held you with his free arm and laid his head on top of yours.

“Our little girl is finally 7.” You can hear him sniffle. You looked up as you watched him watch Leia take pictures with everyone. He was so happy and over joyed with tears in his eyes.

“Happy Birthday, my girl.”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The next couple of weeks went by smoothly. Mav and Austin had left after a couple of days being here. Leia finally started her new school. She made new friends instantly. You still continued to work remotely. The time had come for you and Bradley to have your first ultrasound with the new doctor here in Hawaii. Hangman, Phoenix, and Bradley ended flying routes early today so they could be home in time. Hangman and Phoenix stayed back to pick up Leia from school and Bradley went with you to see your boys. Each day your belly was getting bigger and bigger. You were 6 1/2 months. Time was flying by so quickly.

Bradley arrived at home. He sung your name as he walked in. “Y/n!” Followed by Hangman and Phoenix laughing. They came over to you on the couch. You were relaxing and doing some work on your computer. Bradley grabbed the laptop from you and handed it to Phoenix. She set it on the coffee table. Bradley sat next to you and rubbed your head. “Ready to go, sweetheart? Go and see our boys?” He grabbed your hand and kissed it.

You sighed and tried to sit up. Bradley helped pull you up and Hangman assisted by pushing up your back. You readjusted Bradley’s oversized T-shirt over your belly. You took a deep breath. “These boys have me winded all the time. Getting up is already tiring.” You giggled as you looked at the three aviators around you.

Bradley kissed your forehead, “We will go when you’re ready to go, baby. Take your time.” He rubbed your cheek. Phoenix went and grabbed you some water. She handed it to you and you took a couple of sips.

You stuck your hands out to Bradley. “Okay, hoist me up.” You laughed as Bradley held tightly onto your hands. Hangman was behind you and helped Bradley assist you up onto your feet.

Phoenix came over and placed her hands on your belly, “You are literally the cutest pregnant women ever!” She gave your belly a rub before hugging you.

Bradley helped you out to the truck and helped you get into your seat. He placed a kiss on your lips as he helped you with your seatbelt. Then you were off to your ultrasound. The doctors office wasn’t too far from your house. When you pulled up Bradley helped you down and into the building. He sat you down and went to go and check you in. You felt a little winded. Carrying around two Bradshaws was tiring.

You leaned back against the chair pushing yourself back to stretch your back out. It popped a couple of times. Bradley sat next to you and held your hand, “Back hurting, baby?” You nodded. “Allow me, sweetheart.” Bradley gestured for you to turn around slightly in your chair. You did and he started to rub your back. It felt so good. Just as you got relaxed, the assistant nurse called you back.

Bradley helped you up and held your hand as you both entered the back to be escorted to your room. You laid on the table and the assistant prepped you. They lifted your shirt and wiped your belly with a warm cloth.

“Your belly looks really good for being 6 and a half months pregnant, Mrs. Bradshaw.” The assistant gave you a warm smile, admiring your stretch-mark-less belly.

Bradley chuckled, “We have a regiment we do every night to keep her belly nice.” He leaned down and kissed your temple. You looked up at him through your lashes and smiled.

The doctor came in and prepped your belly with some warm gel. They placed the transducer on your belly and started to search around. It didn’t take long before your boys appeared on the screen. Bradley gasped and covered his mouth. His eyes were glued to the monitor. He briefly took them away and looked at you, “They are so much bigger than the last time I saw them.” He chuckled, “Those are definitely my boys.” He covered his mouth again as he squeezed your hand.

The doctor took measurements of each baby, checked their heart rates, and did an over all check up of their embryonic sac. Everything was checking out. As they started to clean you up and print out pictures for you and Bradley they discussed due dates.

“I expect that these babies will probably be due around mid July, early August. However, since you are pregnant with multiples. I advise that we set a date to induce you.”

You and Bradley looked at each other with raised brows. “What do you think, sweetheart?”

You looked over to the doctor, “Well, how should we approach this?”

The doctor started to print out pictures of the boys for you and Bradley. “Well I think we should keep track of their growth progress and the next appointment we can definitely make a determination on an estimated date.” They gave you a warm smile as they started to clean you up.

You sighed and looked up at Bradley, “Thank god, the soonest the better.” You laughed and Bradley shook his head at you, “These Bradshaw boys are crushing my insides. I am so excited for them to be out.” You laid back and relaxed thinking about their birth.

Bradley played with your hair and looked down at you, “I can’t wait for them to be here too, honey. I want them now.” He chuckled and kissed your forehead over and over again.

The doctor gave you and Bradley the pictures. You readjusted your shirt over your belly and Bradley helped you off of the table. He helped you out to the car. He had one arm wrapped around your waist, he held you firmly against his side. He slung your bag over his shoulder and held your other hand. You started to have a waddle in your walk. As your belly grew it was getting harder to do things for yourself. Bradley helped you into his car and buckled your seat belt. He gave you your bag and kissed your cheek.

“Sweetheart, I love seeing you so pregnant. It is the cutest thing ever.” He smiled and rubbed your belly. “Gosh, I can’t wait for the boys to be here.”

Bradley got into the car and you all headed home. When you arrived, Hangman was getting Leia out of his truck. She ran over to you and Bradley when you parked. Bradley got out and squatted as she darted off him. He picked her up and kissed her cheek. You couldn’t hear their exchange of words, the car door was closed and it was muffled, but you could see her laughing and her eyes go wide. He let her down and she ran over to your side.

Hangman opened your door and helped you down. Leia came and gave you a big hug. “Momma! How is my little baby!?” She patted your belly softly before placing a kiss on it.

You rubbed her head, “They are perfect, sweetheart. Your daddy and I have some better news to tell you.” You rubbed her cheek and her eyes lit up.

“Are you finally telling me I am having a baby sister!” She bounced up and down.

Bradley chuckled and picked up Leia, “How about we go inside and we tell you?” He raised his brows at Leia. She nodded and kissed her dad’s cheek.

Hangman helped you into the house. Phoenix was in the kitchen preparing lunch for everyone. When she saw you coming through the door she ran over with her arms open. She gave you a hug and then placed her hands on your belly, placing a kiss on it.

“How is everything?” She looked up at you excitedly.

You smiled and nodded, “Perfect! We are actually finally going to tell Leia the big news.” You winked at Phoenix.

She gasped, “I’ll get the snacks!” She ran to the kitchen and grabbed the tray of snacks.

Bradley carried Leia over to the couches and Hangman helped you over. Hangman set up a couple of pillows to go behind your back and he and Bradley helped you onto the couch softly. Leia came over and sat next to you cuddling with your belly. She laid her head and wrapped her arm around it. She placed kisses over and over again on the side of it, causing the boys to start kicking their sister.

“Oh my gosh! Momma! She’s kicking me!” She started giggling as she stayed laying in the spot where they were kicking.

Everyone cooed over her reaction to being kicked. You rubbed her head and watched her interact with her siblings. Bradley reached over and petted Leia’s head.

Bradley cleared his throat, “So Vapor girl, You know you’re going to be a big sister. So that comes with a lot of responsibility.” He raised his brows to Leia.

She nodded, “I know, daddy. I’m going to be the best big sister I can be.” She hugged your belly tighter.

“Leia, honey. Are you ready to know the news?”

She sat up excitedly and started nodding her head. She waited eagerly.

You and Bradley looked at each other and then over to Hangman and Phoenix. They were eating their snacks with smiles plastered across their faces.

Bradley was breathing through his teeth, “Leia, sweetheart. You are going to be a big sister to your twin baby brothers.” He watched Leia’s expression drop. Her eyes went wide and her jaw slacked.

“There’s two?” She looked at all four of you shocked. “TWO BABY BROTHERS!?” She slapped her hand over her mouth. She sat there for a second soaking in the news. She jumped up on the couch, “I’M GOING TO HAVE BABY BROTHERS!!!” She started to dance on the couch. She was so excited. “OH MY GOSH!!!” She started to jump and clap.

You all started to laugh. You and Bradley were so excited to tell Leia about her brothers. She jumped back down and cradled your belly. “Hi baby and baby. I looooove you!” She kissed your stomach over and over again before she ran over to Phoenix and Hangman jumping on them and celebrating.

The next week was spent getting things set up in the boys room. You and Bradley had bought cribs for them. Hangman and Bradley built them and set them up. You and Phoenix decorated and started to buy clothes for them. Leia made paintings to go in their room with some help from Gunner. Their room was starting to come together quickly.

~~~~~~

Bradley, Hangman, and Phoenix came home from a long day at work. You were on the couch talking on the phone with Bri and Billy.

“Oh hey, girl I got to go. Squad just got home! I’ll call you all again later! Bye I love you!” You smiled and waved at them.

You smiled at the three aviators as they walked through the house to join you on the couch. Bradley plopped down besides you and threw his arm over your shoulder. You made a sour face.

“You smell like jet fuel, Bradshaw.” You started to fan the smell away from you.

He chuckled, “I’ll go and shower in a bit, but we all have to talk, baby.”

You nodded and looked at the three of them. Phoenix started the conversation. “Y/n, our training on grounds with our pilots has finished. Now it’s time for us to go on the boat.” She looked down.

You nodded, “Oh, okay.” You were feeling sad. “What does that mean?”

Hangman leaned forward and took a deep breath, “We will all be taking turns going out to sea for 2 weeks at a time.” He looked between Bradley and Phoenix.

Bradley nodded, “So, baby. You will always have 2 of us here with you. BUT, one will be gone for 2 weeks at a time. It’s going to be like this for a couple of months.” He smiled at you weakly.

You narrowed your brows at Bradley, “And I assume you are going first, Lieutenant?” You raised your brows.

He looked down and closed his eyes. When he raised his head he covered his eyes and peered through his fingers, “I… uh am, sweetheart.” He bit on his lips, “BUT! After those 2 weeks, I will be home with you for a month.” He kissed your cheek, “So does that compensate?”

You chuckled. “That is completely fine with me. I get to hangout with Hangman and Phoenix all day.” You winked at him.

He smiled and kissed your head, “I am glad you will be able to, baby. I know they’ll take care of you.” He rubbed your belly.

“What will you all be doing. Anyways? If you are allowed to discuss it, because I know how it can be. Navy, missions, top secret. Hush hush.” You shrugged your shoulders.

Hangman laughed, “We are just there to be supervisors over our pilots and the squadron. We will be flight cover when they do their surveillance of the area.”

You raised your eyebrow. “Surveillance? Flight cover?”

Phoenix nodded, “Surveillance of the area. We are the eyes in the sky, y/n. After the uranium plant there has been a lot of ‘tension’ with things. So we are here to protect our own. We are the flight cover if anything goes out of whack.” She tried to explain it to you enough to where you would understand and not freak out.

“This is stuff we do all the time, sweetheart.” He cupped your cheek, “We will be okay.”

“And we are also the best of the damn best, if I can say for myself.” Hangman inserted himself into yours and Braley’s moment.

Bradley chuckled, “We know you are, Seresin. Best one here.” Bradley shook his head as he looked at you. “I love you.” He kissed your nose.

“I love you.” You smiled. “Thank you for letting me know.” You looked at all three of them.

“Of course, we just wanted to make sure you know everything, y/n.” Phoenix leaned forward and rubbed your knee.

“When do you leave, Lieutenant?” You looked up at Bradley.

He pulled your head to his lips and kissed your temple, “End of next week, baby. So, I will be here for your next appointment when I get back to land.” He started to laugh, “I don’t want to miss anymore. I’ve missed enough.” He kissed you again.

~~~~~~~

The week flew by. It was time for Bradley to suit up and be on his way to the boat. He had the truck loaded with his uniforms and clothes for the next two weeks. He didn’t want to wake you as he got ready. After he put his uniform on he came over to your side of the bed and knelt down. He rubbed your head and placed a kiss on your nose. You woke up. He was in his whites.

You sat up slowly and smiled, “You look so handsome, Lieutenant.” You cupped his cheek.

“Thank you, baby.” He whispered to you and he placed his hand on yours. “I’m getting ready to leave. I just wanted to say good-bye before I went.” He kissed your palm over and over again. He took your hand and placed it to his heart. “I’ll see you in 2 week, beautiful. I love you, forever.” He smiled and pulled you in to kiss your lips.

“I love you, always, Bradley.” You rubbed your thumb over his nose.

“I’ll see you soon.” He bent down and kissed your belly twice. He waved as he left out the door. And just like that he was gone, again.

~~~~~

The next two weeks were full of you, Phoenix, Hangman, and Leia time. Phoenix helped you overnight with your belly face masks routine, Hangman helped you set up and get more things for the house, and Leia helped you with decorating the boy’s room.

Leia painted a picture of her and the boys in an F-14 at school. She wanted it to be hung in their room.

“Momma!” Leia came running through the door with Phoenix after school. She was holding a paper in her hand. “Look what I made for my brothers!”

Phoenix called over to you as she closed the door, “Y/n! It is the cutest painting I have ever seen!” She jogged over to you and Leia.

You sat up on the couch and Leia handed you her painting. You gasped, “Oh Leia girl! This is so beautiful!”

Leia bounced on her butt on the cushion next to you. “Do you like it? I made it during our free time today!”

You kissed her cheek, “Baby, I love it!” You looked at her painting with tears in your eyes.

She explained the picture to you, “So that is me in the pilot’s seat.” She pointed to herself. “And that’s my brothers crammed in the back seat as my Wizzos!” She pointed to her brothers.

Phoenix sat next to Leia and laid on her back. “How come your bothers have to be crammed in the back seat, Vapor? How come one can’t have their own plane be be your fly cover?”

Leia shook her head, “No. They have to stay together because I want all of us in the same plane.” She laid her head back against Phoenix’s head.

You laughed, “Do you want to put this in your brothers’ room?” You smiled at Leia and rubbed her cheek.

She jumped up causing Phoenix’s head to fall onto the couch cushion. “YESSS!” She snatched the picture from you and held it up. Just as she did that, Hangman came through the door.

“WOAH. What’s all the commotion. I can hear you outside, Honey.” Hangman kicked off his boots and set down his work duffle bag.

“UNCLE JAKEY!” Leia jumped down from the couch and ran over to him, crashing herself into his abdomen. He let out a huff as she hit him hard.

You and Phoenix looked over and waved to him. “What took you so long, Bagman?” Phoenix called over to him.

He picked up Leia and made his way over to the couch. “I was held up for a little bit. One of our students was nervous for going out on the ship. His first time and he doesn’t know what to expect. So, I talked to him for a minute.” He plopped down with Leia on his lap on one of the single sofa chairs.

Leia practically shoved her picture in Hangman’s face. “Hey what is this, honey?” Hangman grabbed the picture and looked at it. “Oh wow, Is that me?” He pointed to the pilot. “And Phoenix and your daddy crammed in the back?” He started to laugh.

“NO!” She narrowed her eyes at Hangman. “That’s me and my brothers! Momma said we can put it in their room!”

He looked at her with wide eyes, “That is beautiful, honey! Do you want to hang it up right now?” She nodded her head. “Okay let’s go, Vapor girl!” He picked her up and ran with her upstairs.

Hangman called to you and Phoenix downstairs, “Hey do you girls think you could bring up the stud finder. I’m gonna frame her picture and hang it up. I wanna make sure the thing is secure!”

You looked at Phoenix and raised your brows. She helped you up and you went to go and grab the device from the drawer in the kitchen. Phoenix helped you up the stairs. When you got up the stairs, you went to the boys room. You handed Hangman the stud finder.

Hangman slapped the device to his forehead, “Well, will you look at that? This thing works like a charm.” He threw his head back as he laughed.

Phoenix rolled her eyes and crossed her arms, “More like it seems to be broken.” You started to laugh. You felt bad and covered your mouth.

Hangman looked at Phoenix slack jawed, “That is really mean, Nix. You’re hurting my feelings.”

She shook her head at Hangman, “Cry me a river, Bagman.” She laughed and went to help him hang Leia’s painting.

~~~~~~~

The last 2 weeks went by pretty quick. Leia finally finished her kindergarten year. Her graduation would be on Friday and Bradley would be coming home the day before. All of you would thankfully be there to watch her promote to first grade.

After a long 2 weeks of being secluded on a boat and flying, Bradley finally busted through the garage door Thursday late afternoon.

“I’m back, bitches!” He was holding his duffle bag in one hand, his flight suit hanging over his forearm, and he was dressed down in his whites again. He took his hat off as he entered the house.

You were helping Leia try on her gown and little graduation hat. She turned around and took off to her dad. “DADDY!” She held her hat as she ran.

“Oh my beautiful girl! Look at you!” He dropped all his stuff and picked her up, kissing her cheek hard. He pulled at her graduation gown. “My Leia girl, you look so adorable. You’re growing up so fast. Look at you!” He looked at his daughter in awe and gasped. “You are the prettiest girl in the world, do you know that?” He smiled and placed another kiss on her cheek before tickling her stomach.

Bradley set her down and jogged over to you as you used the couch as a leverage to get up. “Let me help you, sweetheart!” Bradley grabbed your arm and helped you up from your knees. He placed his hands on either side of you belly and looked you up and down. “Oh my beautiful, girl. You’re glowing!” His eyes lit up when he looked at you. He started to blush.

You giggled and placed your hands on his cheeks to pull him in for a kiss, “That is just sweat, Lieutenant.” You smiled against the kiss. “I’m so glad you’re safe and home.” You smoothed out his mustache.

“I am too, sweetheart. I missed you so much.” He kissed your lips over and over again.

“Is that Bradshaw I hear?” Hangman came running down the stairs with a smile on his face. He stuck his arms out and ran over to Bradley. He hugged him hard and patted his back harder. “Welcome home, how was it?”

Bradley chuckled, “Not bad. Shittiest part was probably the uncomfortable beds, food, and not having you guys there.” He patted Hangman’s shoulder. “Where is Phoenix?” Bradley look around.

“She’s getting her bag ready for Monday.I’m sure she will be down in a few.” And just like clock work she came running down the stairs.

“Bradshaw!” She jogged over to him and gave him a hug. She patted his shoulder, “So what can I expect?”

Bradley laughed, “Shitty sleep, food, and us not being there. Other than that, not bad.” He smiled and hugged her again. “It’ll go by fast.”

Later that night, you made Bradley’s favorite food. Spinach and tomato pasta with a poached egg with chicken on the side. You made a side cucumber salad and for dessert you were making his favorite, chocolate fudge brownies. Bradley was upstairs cleaning up and putting his things away in his duffle bag. Leia showed him the picture sh made for her brothers and a couple of new things she added to her room. Bradley could smell dinner from her room. His stomach started to growl loudly.

You called for everyone to come and eat. They all came running down the stairs. Hangman was pulling on Bradley’s shirt so he could get in front of him, "Me first Bradshaw, I'm fucking starving!"

Bradley was pushing Hangman in a hurry for food that was finally home cooked and not some bland boat food. "My house, my wife, hurry the hell up, Bagman. I thought you could never be slow!"

Hangman stopped briefly on the stairs and looked at Bradley, "You take that back, chicken boy."

Bradley laughed and pushed Hangman back into the wall to get past him. "Not a chance, board game!"

Phoenix trailed behind carrying Leia. The girls looked at each other and shook their heads. at the same time they rolled their eyes, "Boys..."

Bradley came over to you and kissed your cheek.

“Smells amazing, sweetheart. What’s the special occasion?” He wrapped his arms around your belly and looked at what you had prepared, “Whaaaat? Spinach and tomato pasta with a poached egg, chicken on the side, AND you made a side cucumber salad? What the heck, baby!”

You giggled, “Celebrate you coming home, my love.” You turned around and kissed his nose.

He nuzzled into your ear, “Mmmm, can this be everyday?” He nipped at your ear and you scrunched your neck at the tickling sensation. “Can I have momma for dessert then?” He kissed your ear.

“Ew, That’s disgusting. We are right here, Rooster.” Hangman gagged.

Leia chimed in with her hands on her hips looking just like Bradley. “That’s cannibalism, daddy. You can’t eat mommy!” She had a frown. God she was literally Bradley’s twin.

Phoenix agreed with Leia, “Yea, Daddy Rooster. That’s cannibalism.” She shook her head and laughed at Bradley.

Bradley looked at you and then back to them. “She can be edible sometimes, sweetheart.” Bradley winked at Hangman and Phoenix. Hangman cringed and Phoenix rolled her eyes.

“I am suddenly not hungry.” Hangman placed his hands over his eyes. “I’m having horrible flashbacks to the whale calling.” He shook his head in his hands.

Leia shook her head slowly at you and Bradley, “I guess daddy is a cannibal. That’s sick. You’re making Uncle Jake think about whales.” Poor babe was so clueless.

Bradley laughed and walked over to Leia kissing her head, “The less you know the better, Vapor girl.” Bradley walked up to Hangman and slapped his chest. “Make sure to wear ear protection tonight.” He chuckled and Hangman shuttered thinking about the last time he didn’t.

“Like I said then, I say again. I should have just stayed at the barracks.”
