Jami ate her food relatively quickly, an old habit of hers that she hadn't shaken yet. She placed her plate on the table and then picked Fiona up. She sat down on the old rocking chair, nursing the baby.
Gone // One-On-One // CLOSED
He turned the music back on as he entered his workroom, starting to tinker while he waited for Jami to say she was ready to go.
After she finished nursing Fiona, she did the same to Peter. She knew that she would have to change them before leaving, but they had to be fed.
Sebastian continued tinkering and inventing, a small but proud smile on his face when he finished another one of his toy-like inventions.
She picked up both babies and walked back up to the bedroom. She got to work changing their diapers and then their clothes. If she thought one baby was gonna be hard, having twins was harder.
He knew taking care of twins must be hard work, and he wanted to help his wife, but he also didn't want to get in the way. She knew what she was doing and he felt that he would mess up if he tried, so he stayed in his workshop and did his best to help without getting in the way.
Jami picked Fiona up after changing her, placing a kiss to the baby's forehead. "You're all done, Fi," She said softly before placing the baby in a pram. She then did the same with Peter, changing him and putting him in the pram.
The music and work calmed him and he soon zoned out, knowing he could stay here for days at a time if no one interrupted him.
Jami made her way down the stairs with the pram, being careful not to let it fall. She started to walk towards Sebastian's workshop to let him know that they were ready to go.
He continued working, this time on one of his oldest projects he could never get to work; A robot to help him in his workshop. The only thing he had to finish with the robot was getting the outer shell done along with some of the wiring, but he never had the time to finish it.
She knocked on the door loudly. "Sebastian!" She yelled out, knowing he probably wouldn't have heard the knocking. He always zoned out while working.
"Hm?" He responded, only snapping back into reality when he heard his name called.
Jami waited a little bit before calling his name out again. Normally she was patient, but being on maternity leave from her high speed job was having her on edge.
"You can come in," He called out, heading to the door and opening it. When he saw Jami he smiled lightly and tucked the screwdriver he was carrying behind his ear, "You ready to go?"
"If I wasn't ready to go I wouldn't be down here, would I?" She replied, leaning against the doorframe.
Sebastian nodded and turned back into his workshop, turning off the music and adding a few last details to his robot before heading back to the door, "Alright, where are we off to?"
"I don't know," She answered, eyebrows raised. "You're the one who suggested we go out today. Besides, anywhere that I can get my mind off work is a good place."
"The park?" He suggested, flicking off the lights of his workshop and closing the door, "Otherwise we could just walk around and see where life takes us."
"Well, what would we even do at the park? They're only a couple months old. It's not like we can let them run around and play with other kids."
He shrugged, "They could nap, and we could talk. I'm just suggesting ideas, we don't have to go to the park."
"Yeah, but you know my forward response to things," She said. "I need it. Otherwise I wouldn't be a good paramedic. Why don't we go get ice cream?"
He nodded, "That sounds good, ice cream it is." Sebastian looked at Fia and Peter with a smile and nodded again, "Let's get going."
She passed the pram off to Sebastian and her phone started to ring. She trailed behind a bit while talking and as she locked the mansion. "Yep, I'll meet you there. K, bye."
"Who was that?" Sebastian asked, happily pushing the pram as they walked.
"Someone you'll meet when we go out for ice cream," She replied slyly. She'd been talking with this person for a while, and what they had to offer was something she wanted to surprise Sebastian with.
Immediately he became slightly more suspicious of this person and he glanced at his wife, "What does this person do?"
"If I told you it would ruin my surprise for you," She said quickly. She had nothing to hide, but she still wanted to surprise Sebastian.
"I'm not a big fan of surprises," He replied, focusing his attention back on Fia and Peter as he tried to think of who Jami could be talking about.
"I know, but this one you'll want to be a surprise," She answered. "Trust me. This is something big, and I don't want to tell you because…well, you'll see."
Sebastian sighed slightly and shook his head, “If this is anything that’s going to scare me…” He trailed off and glanced at her.
