After a quick change ... and an almost quicker meal. He and Mary got into his GTO and headed out to safe place. There were certain parts of Safe Place that he didn't have access to unless it was for brother business ... and he agreed with that ... some females didn't feel comfortable around males .... and understandably so. While travelling he did realize that this wasn't exactly a ... family friendly vehicle ... and they would need something that could .... well ... handle a car seat if nothing else.
They got inside ... and well the closer they got ... the more nervous he was ... but ... he could handle it ... maybe. "You think he'll like me?!" He wasn't exactly the soft and cuddly sort ... and then there was the whole beast thing ... he didn't want his beast to hurt the boy either.

Mary smirked when they got inside. She gently took his hand. "By the way, I think your GTO will be fine. I saw you looking it over while you were driving. There is room in the back for a car seat. But, I'm sure my old sedan would work too, if it's at the mansion?"
She squeezed his hand as they stood outside the boys room. He was awake, just chilling in his crib. The ladies working the nursing station obviously hadn't noticed he was awake. As if he sensed her presence the little boy turned his head towards the door. He could see them through the little glass window. The boy pulled himself up and smiled big, jumping up and down. Mary turned to Rhage and leaned against him, looking up. "I think he'll love you, maybe even more then I do..."
Mary leaned up, kissing Rhage softly. She broke the kiss and looked through the window. "Look at him... he's excited."

Rhage would look back, "You sure? There isn't exactly a lot of room back there .... and yea .. your car is in the garage ... though ... if you want to go out and buy a new vehicle that's fine as well." Maybe one of those large SUV's ... those were family friendly vehicles weren't they?
They got there ... and well the boy was up .. and it seemed he was just chillin in the crib. He looked over and well .. was all excited ... jumping up and down. He wrapped his arm around her and held her close, "Oh I don't know about that ... but ... he definitely is excited ... though it could be because you are here and he recognizes you."

Mary smirked. She knew it was true. She had gotten pretty close to the boy since he found himself at Safe Place. She gently opened the door, pulling Rhage with her. She closed the door gently and then let go of Rhage's hand. The boy started whimpering, becoming impatient for Mary's touch. She cooed at him and gently lifted him up into her arms. He was wearing a standard solid blue onesie. Immediately he curled his hands around her and hugged her tightly. Mary turned to face Rhage and smiled. She looked down at the boy and said softly. "I have someone for you to meet."
The young boy looked up at Rhage and sank back into Mary for a few seconds as he looked the large male up and down. His eyes literally went up and down Rhage's body. Right as Mary was starting to lose hope the boy shot out his arms towards Rhage and started squirming. He wanted him. He wanted him, badly. Mary laughed and looked up at Rhage. "Well, do you want to hold him?"
Just as Mary asked Rhage the boy turned to Mary and frowned hard, slowly tearing up. He turned back to Rhage and pushed his arms out even further, starting to cry.

Rhage would walk in with Mary ... and well you could tell that the boy liked Mary ... and why wouldn't he .. Mary was amazing! It was ... amazing to see, Mary playing mom and well it was the very picture of baby and mom right there. His heart was definitely melting .... then ... well the boy looked to him ... and reached out.
To say that he was nervous ... would be a bit of an understatement. He swallowed a little ... as he reached out ... and well ... he saw how Mary had picked him up ... and held him ... and he tried to mimic it. He held onto him tentatively ... scared that he was going to hurt the baby ... and help him to his chest. He took a deep breath ... and it felt good. He looked down at the baby boy, "So .... you think I'm acceptable?"

Mary couldn't hold back her smile. It was big across her face as she watched Rhage hold the little boy. If he was struggling it didn't show. He looked like a natural. Mary smirked and wrapped her arms around herself. Watching Rhage hold the boy made her hot. It was so sexy seeing Rhage being a good dad, and that's what he would be. He'd be a great dad.
Suddenly the boy turned and hugged Rhage tightly, pushing his body against Rhage's chest while taking his little fists and holding onto his shirt tightly. He started talking gibberish, answering Rhage's question. Mary shook her head in disbelief. "See, I told you, I swear he understands us. But he just can't talk yet. I think whatever that was, was a yes."
The boy looked up at Rhage with a large smile and giggled, wiggling his whole body as the laugh went through him.

Rhage grinned as the boy hugged him .. his little fists grabbing his shirt as if he never wanted to let go. He shivered a little and smiled ... it felt ... so ... amazing ... this little life clinging to him like this. Then the gibberish coming in like an answer. He would laugh a little as his kissed the top of the boys' head.
"Well ... it seems like he likes me. And well it makes sense ... vampire babies are much more aware than human children ... or at least are aware earlier."
He took a deep breath .. and would move to Mary and put his one arm around her ... so that they were in a .... family embrace.

Mary couldn't help but feel overwhelmed in emotion. This could really happen. Her eyes started to water as a tear fell down her cheek. The little boy raised his hand and set it on Mary's cheek that the tear had fallen across. He frowned at her. Mary shook her head and laughed softly. "He's already like you, geez. Making my heart melt, yet feel so whole."
She looked up at Rhage and smiled, her eyes clearing up. She gently kissed his lips, feeling the infants hand fall back down to her throat. Suddenly Mary's eyes got huge. "What if Wrath says no..."
Mary looked down at the boy as she curled up against Rhage's chest, closing his eyes. Wrath couldn't say no, it would break her. She had gotten too attached.

Rhage would shake his head a little bit ... and it was nice ... just them all ... and he was quite at peace here ... and he would shake his head, "Well to be fair ... he is cuter than me." HE would sigh a little, "Well I don't think that he will."
There was already Nalla in the house ... and well he didn't think that Wrath had a problem ... but then again ... his Mary did like to have contingency plans. "How about this....if Wrath says no ... we'll buy ourselves our own place ... and Wrath won't be able to say a thing."
Rhage would smile to Mary and he would kiss her, he just realized that it was already a pretty much dedicated to this, "Alright ... well we'll see what ... kind of paperwork they might need here ... and we'll see what we need to take him home. Isn't that right Sehbastion?!"

Mary felt her knees go weak hearing Rhage talk to the boy, and call him Sehbastian. She smiled up and him and then looked at Sehbastian. "I think I'm going to call him Bastian for short, I don't know why, but it just rolls off my tongue nicer."
She looked around and sighed. "I wish we could take him home with us now, but we'd better go get the paperwork from the King..."
Mary held out her hands for Bastian. She wanted to cuddle him one more time. It was as if he knew too, because instantly he turned out of Rhage's grasp and wiggled his way into Mary's. She smiled and hugged him gently, kissing his cheek. "We'll be back soon, I promise."
Mary walked Sehbastian over to his crib and laid him down. She turned to Rhage and took his hand. "Off to Wrath's office?"
