Johanna watched as her little boy draw a big family. It was just like Kal back then. With the help of her big sister, he was near on completing it. He stood and ran to Quinn who was busy arranging Benny's toys by colors and by variation. She very specific on the arrangement of colors like the rainboy.
"Ki-Kin. Horsy." He gave her a brown and gold colored pencil. "Peasseee."
"Big horsey?" She asked.
"Mama horsy, dada horsy, bibi horsy…"
She smiled as Quinn patiently took the color pencil and went to his paper. Benny pointed on where he wanted it as Quinn started the drawing of a basic horse. The girl was great at everything, arts, music… It was because of the genes that they called Perfect Machines. Johanna was known as the killing machine, a natural one since her mother injected the chemical that they called Alpha to her system before she got pregnant. Her real parents, who were also Victor's parents, are scums. They treated them as an object, lab rats.
However, no matter what her past was, it won't ever happen to her children. She never expected to even have kids. Quinn had an unexpected pregnancy. Benny was another unexpected pregnancy. But she loves both of them. They are bright and special.
"Benny," Johanna called as Benny looked up at her. He was too focused on how Quinn do it. "Come here, baby." He stood and approached her. Johanna reached both of his hands and kissed it. "Tell me about, Eris."
"She~~pretty!" He smiled brightly.
"Besides that."
"She hugged me. Kissy me. Love me… like mama."
"But is there anything else that I should know about Eris? Maybe something, uhh I don't know, bizarre?"
"Bizzz?" He asked.
"Bizarre, my love. Does she say something that you would do?"
Benny thought and shook his head.
"Eris, love me. She huggy, she kissy… she~~Aiden," He pointed to Kaiden. "No, no pushy."
Johanna completely understood his baby talk. He can speak well from the age of two. She's proud of him.
"You listen to her."
"She tell, you tell." Benny told her. "Eris, no baddie." He said, trying to convince Johanna.
Sometimes, she thinks that he's an empath. The kids in the Rossie Empire aren't normal kids. Most of them were killing machines, because their parents were killing machines, and became lab rats in Charles Empire, which is the fallen Empire. Benny's DNA came from her and Connor, however, he was a gift from the Earth Gem which she was protecting back then. She accidentally held it in her bare hands and it got her pregnant. The Earth Gem gives fertility and that's why Benny was a naturalist. He's an animal whisperer and a plant whisperer.
"She loves grass, flowers, dogs… she had King. A big King." He ran off and went to his toys to pick up a Golden Retriever staff toy. Then, he ran back to her. "This King."
"Did she tell you that?"
He shook his head.
"King, help~~Eris."
"Oh," Johanna wiped the sweat on his nose. "Okay, you tell me if Eris did something, baddie, okay?"
"Okay," Then she let go of his hands as he quickly lay on his stomach too close to Quinn.
"Jo," Harvey called as she turned her head. "Protect the family. I'm off, okay?"
"Sure thing, bro." He hugged Johanna from behind and kissed her temple. "Don't be harsh on Eris. We don't know anything about her yet."
"I am not."
"I will go now." He said.
"Say goodbye to Dione and Olivia." She told the kids as they quickly stood. They ran out of the play room as Quinn hugged Dione and then Olivia, Benny did the same. The girls were dressed well like a Princess with pretty hair pins. MJ was pouting as she kept telling Harvey that he shouldn't forget to feed them and always check on them, Harvey and MJ became busy as they were chatting with each other on what to do. But Harvey was in a rush, since a lot of things needed to be done. He's running an entire country and protecting their family.
"Darling, I don't want to burden you, but you are the big sister. You protect Olivia, okay? And daddy will protect you and Via." She gave Dione a lot of kisses as the little girl hugged her mommy.
"You back, Mimi. With Aiden ah, and Eli and Emi."
"Of course, baby." MJ wiped her tears and she hugged her one year old Olivia. "Are you sure you want to go, baby?"
"I go, Ion." Olivia hugged Dione. "Pinssess." She smiled, showing her small white teeth.
Johanna smiled as she leaned her head on the wall, admiring the big family. Harvey kissed his twins and then, Kaiden. He spoke to the boy as the little bow showed his arms, mentioning that he's strong. Then, he's going to marry Eris. It was always Eris. But somehow, she can't blame the kids. Eris was beautiful and she's kind. At least that's what she shows. But an angelic face and a blind woman can be deceiving.

Gray yawned and looked down at his girl. Her arms were over her stomach with her foot tangled to his. He sighed as he stared at her chest. Her cleavage was beautiful but he didn't want to make a move about that yet. He's fine sleeping together. He slowly closed his eyes to go back to sleep since Eris was still sleeping. However, he started dreaming. Instead of dreaming, he calls it a vision in his sleep.
Eris was screaming while running, she didn't care if her feet were cut from the sharp stones. She was running after someone and using her hearing to get to that person. She quickly ran to the direction as she grabbed Benny away as the black snake nearly attacked Benny. She covered herself to protect the boy as the snake suddenly burst.
He gasped as he looked down at Eris who was still asleep peacefully. He was sweating and found out that it wasn't a dream but a vision. A real one. He didn't recall the place but why was Eris running and how does she know? Maybe her sharp senses. No matter what, he will make sure that it won't happen. Eris murmured something as she turned to the other side.
He pushed the duvet from him as he gently scooped her and spooned on her. He shoved his face to the back of her head.
"Hmm," He mumbled. "Good morning, baby."
"G-ray," She mumbled but she's asleep.
"Baby, are you dreaming of me?" He whispered. "I hope that it's a sexy one."
She didn't respond but he snuggled to her more. When he looked at the clock, he nearly jumped. He quickly sat up and reached the telephone. It's already eleven in the morning and they missed breakfast.
"Hello, yes. What's on the menu today? Can we have criossant since we missed breakfast."
He chatted in the kitchen and finally he made a bulk order since Eris would want to eat a lot since they both missed breakfast. He snuggled to her anyway after making an order. He's sure that it will take 45 minutes to prepare all of those. But anyway, he sent over fruits and croissants before the big lunch.
"Baby," He kissed her cheeks.
"Hmm," She opened her eyes and rubbed it. She sat up and nearly hit her forehead at him.
"Good, you are awake." He scooped her chin as he kissed her lips. He's seeking entrance but she pushed him. She covered her mouth.
"I haven't brushed my teeth!"
"I don't care. You taste just fine."
"No." She flushed bright red. "Stop teasing me, Gray."
"Hey, I love it when you are feisty but," he scooped her face. "I love kissing you."
She still blocked him. She quickly searched for the pillow as she shoved her face on it.
"Well, it's fine. When we get married we will do more than that." He kissed her bare arm to tease her. "Brunch will be in a few minutes," He turned on the television and lowered the volume just enough to hear her scream. Then, he went to the bathroom to do his business and even brush his teeth. He grinned as he thought of something and how to tease Eris. He finished up and went to bed. She's currently lying down and listening to the television. Gray jumped over the bed and quickly crawled to her as he kissed her lips. "I already brush my teeth and I'm ready to make out."
"No." She sat up and moved away. Gray watched her escape to the bathroom. She had her hands raised in front and on her side and finally reached the bathroom.
"Babe, you don't have to brush your teeth. You are fine. I love it."
"Gray!" She had her lips pressed as Gray glimpsed on her adorable face red as tomato.
He chuckled as he lay flat down and changed the channel. When Eris came out, she had a towel on to cover her chest. He whistled to tease her more and she unexpectedly threw the towel in a ball but it hit the other way.
"Sorry, babe. I won't tease you again."
"You better not!" She crossed her arms as she looked adorably angry.
