Broken Pieces-Chp41

[meanwhile, on Planet Janet, evryone was waiting anxiously for them to return wen Wander's hat suddenly started quivering n glowing]

Peepers: :o is it...supposed to do that...?

Sylvia: No...but... I think something happened to Ryder. He must be dead. The magic is broken!

[the hat started spitting out random stuff, mostly Wander's personal items he had stashed in ovr the yrs, then the star on the hat tht was yellowish-blue in colour slowly turned full yellow, almost gold]

Wildflower: Tht... Tht's it. Tht's the original colour of the hat's star! Its bk!

Peepers: (rushes to window)...they're back!

[Hater's moped was seen in view, coming in with Angel by his side n Wander n the litter in his arms]

Wildflower: Wandy!! [runs out of the house to them as soon as Hater landed the moped, then sees the litter] Oh my gob, r those my little grandchildren~?? <3

Wander: (nod) And theyre safe and sound, thank goodness. (hugs Wildflower)

Wildflower: Ooh, they are adorable~ Come, come inside quick, u need to get cleaned up n rest. I'll bath the babies for u [gently takes the bundle frm him]

Hater: U been thru a lot, Wander. I think its best u listen to ur mom [carries Wander into the house, ignoring all the anxious ppl inside in favour of bringing Wander to the bathroom] I'll clean u [runs the warm water in the tub]

Wander: Alright...listen, Hater, about that thing I said about your parents, I didn't... :(

Hater: Its OK, u were just upset, n u just been thru a lot, on top of giving birth. Its just a slip of the tongue. It hurts, I admit, bt I'll get ovr it [feels the water being the right temperature n slowly lowers Wander in]

Wander: (holds onto Hater being lowered in)...(hisses in pain, hand going over his thigh) ><

Hater: [heard it] U OK? Wat's wrong? Tell me

Wander: (looks to see the small bite mark)...Armand...that's where he...injected 'love juice'...so that...

Hater: [growled a little as he stared at the bite mark darkly, then leans in to suck at the bite mark, spitting whatevr might be left in there]

Wander: o///o... Hatey...

Hater: Stay still [kept on doing it until he was satisfied tht he'd gotten it all, the bite mark a bit swollen n red frm his sucking to resemble a love bite] Tht should do it. Now try to stay still. I'm gonna wash u frm head to toe n get tht filthy bastard's scent off u

Wander: (still flushing from what Hater just did, but nodded silently)

Hater: [kissed his forehead n got started with rinsing, soaping n scrubbing, being as gentle as he could]

Wander: (purrs, keeping still for Hater to clean him)

Hater: [hesitated a little wen he was abt to wash Wander's privates, not sure whether it would hurt him or it would make him uncomfortable aftr wat Armand did with him]

Wander: (notices the hesitation)...just be gentle, Hater...(though a little nervous himself)

Hater: [nodded n tried his best to be gentle as he washed him dwn there, careful to hold Wander's bk to support him]

Wander: ><...(trembling slightly but he trusted Hater)

Hater: Its OK, I'm here [kissed his forehead] Its just me [finished cleaning him n rinsed him off the soap] There, all done

Wildflower: Oh, Wandy~ U all done cleaning up? [pokes her head into the bathroom]

Wander: O///O m-mama! you mind, please??

Hater: [blushed as well as he grabbed a towel to cover Wander]

Wildflower: Ooh, c'mon, sweetie. I'm ur Mama. There's nothing I've not seen before [giggled] I've cleaned n dressed the babies, they're in the custom made crib ur father made last mth. N I got u some new clothes, Wandy. U just gave birth so u'll need all the R&R for the nxt couple of weeks, n tht includes wearing warm clothes to avoid the chill

Wander: ^^;...thanks, mama. but at least knock next time...?

Wildflower: [rolled her eyes] Oh, alright. Fine. Ooh, before I forget, u'll need to wear boxers n maternity pads for the nxt couple of weeks as well. Ur body is gonna be expelling some excess blood frm ur pregnancy, so be ready for a bit of cramping for a while. At least u get to hv an excuse to stay in bed. I've prepared them all on ur bed, OK?

Hater: We got it. Thanks, Mama

Wildflower: [giggled n left the bathroom]

Wander: heh, she's just being mama. (hugs Hater)

Hater: [chuckles] I knw [wraps Wander in the towel n carries him to the bed where the clothes n maternity pad was ready laid on the bed, n the baby crib just right nxt to the bed with the babies sleeping soundly in it]

Wander: :) ... they still need to be named.

Hater: [smiled] I knw [moved the crib to let Wander see them] We need to chk wat gender they are to decide their names tho, n frm the way ur mom dressed them, it's unisex colours, n I can't tell [chuckles]

Wander: (chuckle) True. (puts pad on with boxers)...it feels so weird wearing these...

Hater: [chuckles] It'll only be a couple of weeks, u'll hv to get used to it

Wander: (has also slipped on houserobe) I know... (looks at the pups again)...I do like Hope and Miracle.

Hater: [chuckles] Lemme just chk [lifted the baby night robes they were wearing n peeked thru their diapers] Well this one [points at the Skeletor] n this one [points at the Angel Nomad] are both girls, this one [points at the Skeletor-Star Nomad mix] is a boy, n the others [gestured at the Star Nomad babies] r hermaphrodites like u

Wander: Alright. (gently stroke's the baby Angel Nomad's head) She can be Miracle. (also touches the forehead of the Skeletor-Nomad mix child) He can be Hope.

Hater: [smiled n nod, then strokes the baby Skeletor's cheeks] I'll call u Dipper, u look pretty big for a Skeletor, like the Big Dipper [chuckles] Wat unisex name do u think we should give these two pure Star Nomads, since they're hermaphrodites?

Wander: (thinks...) Do you know any unisex names? I mean there's always Clarence and Toni, but that's just me.

Hater: Hmmm [thinks] I've got Destiny n Chance. They're unisex names...sorta

Wander: Those work too, then. (sees one of the Star Nomad pups open their eyes)... :O Hater, one of them has your eyes.

Hater: [looked at them] Well, I'll be damned, he does hv my eyes [chuckles] So adorable

*knock knock knock*

Wildflower: Its me~ R u decent?

Wander: Yes, Mama.

Wildflower: [comes in with a tray of soup n a glass of warm milk] Hey sweetie. I see u've got dressed. Better get in bed, u need ur bedrest

Hater; [helps Wander in bed]

Wildflower: [sets the food tray on the bed for Wander] Here ya go, something to fill ur tummy aftr a hard day's work

Wander: Thanks, Mama. We've named the pups. :)

Wildflower: Oh? Wat r they?

Hater; [points at each owner of the name one by one] Dipper, Hope, Miracle, Destiny and Chance

Wander: :) Our little ones.... (thinks)... But what would we tell them if...?

Hater: If wat? [confused]

Wander: They ask about how...we met and stuff? Feel like we might have to leave some stuff out...even if it meant lying to them, but... :(

Hater: Well, we don't hv to tell them the whole truth. Just leave out the rape details, say u were rescued by Daddy frm a vry bad man n tht'll be it. Only if they're old enough who wants to knw the whole truth, then we tell them

Wander:...Yeah, we could do that.

Wildflower: Oh, I just got a vid call frm Wisp, he n the other r on their way now here to visit u. They had to hitchhike a little bt they'll be here soon, maybe by tomorrow. Oooh~ The whole family bk together, isnt tht great? :D

Wander: (nod) That will be great to see them all again. (to Hater) Careful though, Hatey. Treetrunk and Hugo are known to be huggers.

Hater: [chuckles] I think I can handle a few hugs

Wildflower: I'll leave u kids alone then [cooed as she took one last look at the babies before leaving]

Wander: (smiles, taking the soup's spoon before Hater took it gently)... ^^; Hater, I'm not helpless on everything...(knows what the skeletor has in mind)

Hater: [blushed sheepishly] I knw, bt... u been thru a lot, I just wanna make things easy for u [fed him the soup]

Wander: (rolls his eyes with a smile but allows Hater to spoon feed him)

Hater: [by the time he was done, the babies were slowly stirring, hungry for their first meal as they whined n whimpered]

Wander: I don't think Mama fed them.... (blushes a little understanding what he'd have to do to feed the litter)

Hater: Well, I remember ur mom told me its best to give mother's milk, it being the healthiest n all [scratched his chin, then remembered as he rummaged thru the dresser n took out the suction devices Wildflower told him abt] There it is. I think tht's wat she was talking abt. N there's two of them, one for each side

Wander: (blushing, but nods) Those'll work.

Hater: U knw how to put them on, right? [hands it to him while he scooped all five babies into his big arms to bring to Wander]

Wander: Hmm... (manages to put them on the right way and takes the babies gently from the skeletor)

Hater: [helps to stick the nipples into some of the babies while Wander did the others]

[the moment the babies felt the nipples in their mouths, they started latching on n sucked hungrily]

Wander: (cradles them gently, as they fed)

Hater: [lay dwn nxt to Wander, watching them feed] They look so precious

Wander: They really do... (looks at Hater) ...Oh look who has the deep thoughts expression now. (smiling)

Hater: [realized he was talking abt him n looked away blushing] Not sure wat ur talking abt [pouts a little]

Wander: Hatey... I've had to tell you what was on the mind, no reason you can't do the same...

Hater: [chuckles n scratched his chin, his usual nervous tick] Well, we've reli gotten these things backwards tho. I mean, I asked u out aftr we had sex n now... [clears his throat] Well, I was hoping to do this aftr u officially recovered but... [dug in his robes n revealed a small dark blue box, n opened it to reveal a beautiful ruby red ring] Wander... W-Would u... Would u marry me n be my wife? [blushed hard]

Wander: (eyes widen...the one thing he had been waiting for his whole life...eyes began misting up...)...H-Hatey...I...(hugs the skeletor, being careful with the pups) ;( ...Yes...Yes I will...

Hater: [smiled as he hugged him bk, then tilted the Star Nomad's head n leans in to give him a deep, loving kiss]

Wander: mmm~ (hands on Hater's face)

Litter: (squeak in response to their parents' happiness)

Hater: [kissed him some more before chuckling at the litter] Sounds like someone approves of us

Wander: :) They do. ^^ The others will be happy to hear, too.

Hater: I hope so [smiled tenderly] I love u, Wander

Wander: :) love you too, Hater. (Kisses him again)

Hater: [sees the litter finished their meal n picks them up] I'll sort them out, Wander. U had a long day. Its time u close ur eyes n get some rest. Got a big day tomorrow meeting ur sibs

Wander: mhm... (Yawn)... (Settles into deep sleep)

Hater: [kissed Wander's forehead, then burped the litter n settled them in the crib, then sighed in relief n went to the bathroom to hv his turn for a long nice deserved soak in the tub]

Wander: (smiles the biggest smile in his sleep)
