Chapter 14: One call away...for babysitting nephew
Alex's P.O.V
I sat in the office and reflected on the dream I had the night before. It still rang in my ears. "You caused this." The man's voice echoed in my ears. I growled and banged my head onto the desk. "Hey, hey, a little early for violence isn't it?"
I groaned and slumped back. "Oh, stop it Duke. You don't need to worry about me." He leaned on the desk, looking at me. "Hey. You got yourself in a jam. I wanna help Alex." He smiled. "Let me help."
I sighed. "Doesn't Lithia need your help in the hanger?" He shrugged. "She's got it." I grinned. "You sure?" A voice full of annoyance and demand reached both our ears. "Duke Standoff! Get in here right this instant!" I chuckled and patted his arm.
Duke groaned. "Can you go? I don't feel like helping her!" I laughed. "She's your Fiancée Duke. Not my responsibility." He grabbed me in a head lock. "I need Raph's advice." I laugh. "Raph didn't put up with me. I told him what to do."
Duke chuckled and let me go. "Fine. But I want a day of free time." I laughed. "Dude, wait till kids come along. Your hands will be so full."
He chuckled. "I have to handle little Lily and Buck. I can handle a little Duke." He grinned. I shok my head. "Great, now I'll have to handle two Dukes."
He hit my shoulder lightly. "DUKE!!!" I waved my hand at him dismissively. "Go on. Your Fiancée' calls." He chuckled before mock saluting and running out.
I sat back down and sighed. "Auntie Alex!!" A little boy jumped into my lap. I smiled. "Roy! Your here?" He nodded. "Yeah, daddy said I could visit you!" I chuckled and ruffled his sandy hair. "Jack!" He peaked in. "Yeah sis?"
I raised an eyebrow at him. "You brought Roy to work?" He grinned. "Yeah, I mean he won't get into any trouble, and your here to watch him so he'll be aright."
I shot up but Jack sped away. "Jackson!" I shouted. I face palmed. "Hey, what's this?" I turned and shrieked, as I caught sight of little Roy picking up the vial Tony had set on my desk earlier.
"No!" A caught it before he could drop it. "This is gonna be a long day...." I muttered. I took Roy home that night since Jack was working late.
"Auntie....I'm tired." I leaned back on the couch. "Ok, bud. come here." He leaped onto me, making me wheeze. "You ok?" He looked up with puppy dog eyes. I nodded. "Y-yup. I'm fine."
He snuggled up on the couch. Soon he was snoring softly. I smiled and relaxed. The door opened and Lily walked in talking on the phone. "Really?! What did he say?!" I put my finger to my lips, then pointed to her sleeping cousin.
She froze and smiled nervously. "Sorry..." She whispered. I nodded and smiled. Buck walked in while dribbling his soccer ball. "Buck." I shout/whispered. "Oops..sorry mom." I sighed and leaned back.
Jack's P.O.V
I got to Alex's apartment and knocked softly. Raph answered. "You came for Roy?" I nodded. "He hasn't been trouble has he?" Raph smirked. "Send him over more often. He knocked Alex out!" I chuckled and came in.
"Look." Raph pointed to the couch where My son and sister cuddled, asleep. I smiled, and snapped a picture. "She is gonna kill you." Raph whispered. I nodded. "Oh yeah." I picked up Roy and Raph lifted up Alex. "Get him home safe." Raph said.
I nodded. You get her to bed safely. I teased. He kissed her head. "Oh, I will." With a light squeek, ALex snuggled closer to his chest. I smiled. "Night Raph."
He nodded. "Night Jack."
