Butt Face.

It's been a few weeks, since our honeymoon, Zero has been wonderful. At this point, I am just very tired and need all the rest I can get I think all the stress and everything the last few months has gotten to me. It seems all I want to do is sleep. I am glad we made love on our honeymoon since it was the last time for a while. He always seems to make things special. His parents have been nice sending over food and even letting Zero come home early from work, so he is here in case, I go into labor. Next week is my due date but for me, I always seem to go a week early so we are just waiting and watching to see what happens.

"Zero I am going to go to bed, can you please let me know when Joel takes the girls home. It's getting late and I worry." I say.

"Don't worry about a thing, I will take care of it. I want you to go upstairs and get as much rest as you can. Ichiru is going to come over and spend some time with me. We will both wait for the girls. Briana seems to love Ichiru." Zero states.

"Yea she always has, I never understood it. She didn't like you but liked your twin? She said he was different than you. For me when I see him, in person I see you. Which I have to say is kind of weird." I chuckle.

"Yea, I saw you staring at him when you first met him, it was like you were trying to see the difference in us." Zero laughs.

"I was, the only thing, I saw was the tattoo and the hair length. To me though no one could be you but you. Your just special to me." I answer.

"I'm glad. Go get some rest, I will be up after Ichiru goes home and the girls are here." Zero responds.

I go upstairs and lay in our bed which takes me no time to fall asleep. This isn't new to me as two days before I had my last child, all I wanted to do was sleep. I was fine once I had her though, so I hope the same thing happens now.

Zero stays downstairs waiting for Ichiru also knowing that it's getting late and Joel hasn't taken the girls home yet. Zero isn't happy with Joel as he sees him always trying to make Alexa unhappy. Anything to upset her, with the girls he has done lately.

"Hey, Bro. I took over some pizza and beer. I thought we would watch the game and eat." Ichiru states.

"Sounds good, I need to call her ex first though. He hasn't brought the girls home yet and it's getting late. He has been a real asshole lately. " Zero responds.

"He isn't happy you took his life, his wife, his kids. I thought hearing she was having your child made him go away." Ichiru says.

"It did for a bit till we got married. He was trying to hurt her by keeping the kids away on our wedding day, just mom fixed it. Now here and there he has been a real ass. He knows its just a matter of time she goes into labor. " Zero remarks.

"What a douche, Give him a call. Let's see what he has to say." Ichiru responds.

"I'm Going to text him." Zero states.

Zero: 8.00 Pm: When are you taking the girls home, your already two hours late? They have school tomorrow.

Joel: 8:03: Where is Alexa? Shouldn't she be asking this and not you? Since they are our children.

Zero: 8:05: She is tired and went to bed. She asked me to take care of it. SHe is nine months pregnant.

Joel: 8:08: HOw could I forget!!! The girls are not coming home this week. I am sure, she will go into labor......she always goes a week ahead. My daughters don't need to be there for this. When she goes to the hospital, you will leave them alone or only call me anyway. This way they are already with me. They will return after your child is born and she comes home to take care of it. I don't want them alone with you.

"Zero: 8:11: Really? First, you tell me this now? Why couldn't you call and let us know? Second I would never hurt your girls. I like them a lot. I know this hasn't been easy but you're taking it too far.

Joel: 8:13 Don't worry about me, Take care of your now wife. You wouldn't want your children there alone with a stranger. I still don't know where she picked you up from. None of this is like her, you changed her in every way.

Zero: 8:15 Good night Joel. I will see the girls after Our son is born.

"That bastard. He is keeping them till after the baby is born. Saying he doesn't want them near me. He has a lot of nerve." Zero says.

"Maybe that is a good thing. He is trying to be a dick, but that gives you two some time alone. When she goes into labor you won't have to worry about them. He wants to play let him. They are not babies, he doesn't have that long to do this. Plus from what I read it was more like a pissing contest."Ichiru admits.

"I know but in the meantime, he is a real pain in the ass. He could have had the decency to at least tell us this beforehand. Not making us go after him." Zero replies.

"What fun would that be?" Ichiru chuckles.

"None of its fun when it involves children. He should know better. He needs to get over that she doesn't want him." Zero huffs.

"Yes, all that is true, but you also need to see it from his point of view. You are just a stranger with two young girls. There are a lot of sickos around. He doesn't know who you really are or what you're about. You wouldn't be too happy handing your children over to him either. Also, when it came to Kaname, you were the same way. Just the sight of him made you pissed off." Ichiru comments.

"That makes a lot of sense. I just never had to deal with any of this before. In the other life, there was Kaname and vampire stuff. Not this. Not fighting over children." Zero admits.

"Heh, it was easier there huh?" Ichiru says.

"I guess on somethings." Zero replies.

After a few hours, Ichiru goes home and Zero locks up heading to bed. He sees Alexa laying in bed sleeping peacefully. He hates to disturb her. She feels him move around getting into bed.

"Zero did the girls come home?" I ask.

"No babe, Joel is going to keep them this week, in case you go into labor. I thought it was a great idea. We don't have to worry about them." Zero answers.

"Ok, They are ok though? Everything is fine?" I say.

"Yes, everything is great. Soon as the baby is home, they will come back." Zero answers.

I snuggle up to Zero holding on to him tightly. I love being close to him. I knew something was up and Zero didn't want to upset me. I knew Joel was being an ass. Just at the moment, I was in no way able to do anything. I had to take care of the child that was inside me. I knew Joel wouldn't do anything to hurt our children. It was just to bother me and Zero. Let him play his games. The hard parts of this were almost over. I have been Zero's wife for a few weeks now and I loved it. Nothing could beat being with someone you truly love. Granted this didn't go the way we wanted or planned. Then most things never did that were worth fighting for.
