Smoke filled the air, what was once a cafe now reduced to crumbling bricks and broken glass. Benedict looked at his fallen cafe, hands clenched into tight fists, body shaking with anger.
"Bunny.....I'm so sorry"
"He'll pay for this"
Corey and Nora, who witnessed the fire were just across the street inside a different cafe. By the time fire fighters arrived, it was too late to save the building.
"Benedict...we're so sorry"
Benedict took a deep breath and sighed.
"No one was hurt, that's great. In the meantime it seems you guys will need new jobs until I rebuild my cafe...which will take some time"
"How about they work at the palace? I'm sure Skye wouldn't mind another maid and butler" Xavier said. Benedict looked at his employees.
"If you two want to work at the palace...I can ask Skye"
"We don't mind. Ask Skye and we'll be there whenever he wants us"
Benedict nodded and took one last glance at the cafe remains.
"Cj....you just fucked with the wrong one tonight"

The next morning, the day of the royal ascot; Skye was third to wake up in the palace as he had to go to the venue to make sure everything was alright.
"Come back to bed" Prince whined as his hands searched the mattress for Skye.
Skye smiled and sat next to him.
"I'll be back in an hour. Then we'll go to the event. Remember to pack some diapers for Sam okay?"
"Okay Princess, kisses?"
"Sure"
Prince frowned when he's only kissed on the forehead.
"Lips?"
"Your breath stinks babe. I have to go"
Prince sighed and sat up once Skye left the room. He grabs his phone and goes through his gallery, face turning crimson as he swipes through Skye's provocative pictures.
"I miss him"
On the other side of the palace. Star and Luke were already up, getting their clothes ready.
"Do you think Skye will wear a dress or a suit?"
Luke shrugged.
"Why you ask?"
"I think it's awesome how he can rock any outfit, don't you?"
Luke shrugged once more. He never really thought about it.
"Honey I honestly don't think about stuff like that"
Star sighed.
"Anyway, I got a letter from the penitentiary"
"Edward?"
"Yes...I couldn't open it. It's been two years, why is he reaching out now?"
"Well maybe he wants to meet you. You were the one who stood up for him during that week"
"Luke....you make it seem like I was cheering for him"
Luke turned to face her.
"I'm sorry....you should open the letter, maybe it'll be news of him getting out"
Star nodded, she didn't believe Luke but also, the thought of Edward getting released was a double edged sword for her.
"I'll open it later tonight"

Cameron smiled as he placed his tophat on his head. He laughs when he saw Jonathan walking around the room, using an umbrella as a cane.
"Ello ello elllo, would you like some tea and crumpets" Jonathan teases making Cameron laugh even more.
"You look sharp"
Jonathan smiles, ears turning red.
"Thanks. You look good too, commando?" He asks and Cameron gasped.
"Not today you perv!" He squeaks making Jonathan laugh.
"Okay, okay. Let's get going. I hear we're going with the royal cars"
"Fancy"

"We don't have to go Bunny"
Benedict shook his head, rinsing his mouth with listerine.
"We're going. I'm not letting some jealous bitch ruin my fun time with you and my family"
Xavier smiles and buttons up Benedict's white shirt. The clothing was twice his size in order to hide his bump. Benedict fixed Xavier's tie and patted him on the chest.
"When we come back....choke me with that tie"
Xavier looked at him in shock before he smirked.
"This time we'll also use that rope"

Prince took a few pictures of Sam, who was wearing khaki dungarees, a purple long sleeved top, a pair of brown boots and a purple cap.
"Okay done, let's go see Grandma and Grandpa"
"Yay!"
Going downstairs, They find Luke, Star and Sarah having a chat. Luke was wearing a classic tuxedo, a black top hat and a black cane in his left hand.
Star was wearing a bubblegum pink, low fishtail dress, a pair of pink wedges and on her head was a feathery fascinator.
Sarah on the other hand had on a pale blue pantsuit, hair tied up in a bun, her black block heels nealty hidden by pantsuit.
"Where's Skye?" Star asked.
"Still getting ready, it seems one of the maids can't find the pair of shoes he's looking for"
Sarah and Star giggle. Luke looked at Sam, the fact that this child could look both like his parents at the same time was a scary thing.
"Remember when you told us Skye was pregnant"
Prince laughed.
"How can I forget? You all looked at me like I was crazy"
The doors opened and first to arrive was Jonathan and Cameron. Prince smiled at them.
"Welcome, do I offer you anything?"
Cameron blushed, the fact that he's even here right now is so surreal.
"Water is just fine" Jonathan says.
Prince sends the butler to get their water and he turns to all of them.
"Alright, we planned a horse carriage and three cars. I hope that it's good with everyone"
"What's good?" Benedict asked as they made their way inside the room. Xavier waved at them, umbrella on his shoulder as he walked behind Benedict.
"Oh my God. Benedict are you pregnant?" Star asked in shock, the question made Benedict stop in his tracks.
"You can tell?" He asked and Star nodded.
"Your face said it all honey. Congratulations!"
Xavier patted him on the back.
"It's okay bunny"
"I thought we could hide it for a bit. Oh well. Yes I'm pregnant, with triplets" he said and Luke choked on his water.
"So Star, all your boys can get pregnant?" He asked.
"Nope, Jonathan is....cis"
"Dada!"
Skye smiled and picked his son up, he was wearing a suit similar to Prince's but with different coloured ties.
"We're all here, let's get going"
