 "Uninvited company!" Cailen called out into the flat, knowing they were in here somewhere.Sure enough, they heard a loud cackle of laughter that was now as familiar as his own.It was coming from the living room so Asher and Cailen both headed in that direction, their knees being attacked immediately when they turned the corner after Loki finally realized they were home.Cailen gave the dog a quick pat, greeting him briefly whereas Asher got right down and allowed the dog to lick him all over.Cailen liked dogs, he wouldn't have allowed Asher to have Loki if he didn't, but that didn't mean he enjoyed getting a face wash by him.Cailen was busy anyway, glaring at the four people making themselves at home in their living room.They were all grinning innocently as if they hadn't just technically broken into their home.Cailen wasn't panicked because he knew these four people, th

 "I'm sorry, Mom, but we just wanted to get settled before we spring everyone on him," Cailen spoke into the phone that was squished between his ear and shoulder as he finished wrapping up Ezekiel's sandwich that he had made to pack with him for lunch.It was a peanut butter and jelly sandwich that was making a right mess of his fingers but it was Ezekiel's favorite so Cailen figured it was worth it.Ezekiel was in his room, hopefully getting ready for school, but Cailen suspected he was playing with his toys. It was alright though, they were ahead of schedule anyway."I know, I'm just excited is all. I'm a grandmother!" Cailen heard his mother's voice say through the phone, obviously excited.Cailen smiled as he put the sandwich into the Batman lunch container. Honestly, this kid loved batman too much for his own good, but his smile faded as what Eden said sunk in."Uh, yeah... Mom, you mig

 Cailen was exhausted to say the least.He just wanted to go to sleep but the chairs were not comfortable at all and William's fidgeting- who couldn't seem to sit still long enough for Cailen to rest his head on the man’s shoulder- was not helping.It's been about two hours since Hazel arrived and Cailen had got Matthew all scrubbed up and into the delivery room.Cailen didn't stay because technically, only the husband was allowed in there and although he could probably get away with it if he helped out in some way, he figured it'd be best not to push his luck. That, and he didn't particularly want to see Hazel in that state, where he could be seeing most of her everything. Cailen had called Asher after getting Matthew into the delivery room, explaining what was going on.Asher of course wanted to rush down here and be here for Matthew and Hazel but

 "We all should go though. I'm sure Hazel's very exhausted and this one is probably going to be sent in to run some tests soon," Cailen said, slipping his hands under the baby and lifting her from Ezekiel's lap.Cailen carefully handed Aariyah back to her mother, Hazel smiling gratefully at Cailen because she knew he knew how tried she was. He's been through this enough times to know she'll probably be zonked out soon."Thanks for waiting, guys," Matthew said, looking to William, Cailen and Asher. "And thanks for making it, Noah."The Scottish nodded, sending him a smile. "Of course," Noah said."And thank you, Cai. I know I was freaking out a bit there," Matthew chuckled, nervously scratching at the back of his neck.Cailen chuckled, shrugging his shoulder."You're not the first father-to-be I've had to calm down," Cailen teased."Okay, mister, re

 "Wil's going to want to steal him away and have him perform with him when he's older.""Don't get ahead of yourself," Noah said. "Could of just been a one-time thing, but I think he's got natural talent even if we were just doing some chords," Noah complimented, smiling softly."Could you imagine? Zeke auditioning for... Got Talent or something?" Cailen asked, half joking, half serious."Who knows? Maybe he will," Noah agreed with a small nod of his head.Cailen reached out then, grabbing Noah's hand and giving it a squeeze."How are you holding up?" Cailen asked.Noah shrugged, not meeting Cailen's eyes."We started fighting a lot when we moved in together," Noah explained.This surprised Cailen because Noah had never told them but then again, they had kind of gone AWOL for a while there, having to deal with Ezekiel and all. Now Cailen fel
