5: Two and a Half

"Blake hand me the diaper!", Aries yells as he stuffs the bag with clothes.

"Where the hell did you place those dumb things anyways?!", Blake yells back. "And can't you see I'm busy with things over here!"

Suddenly the sound of objects falling was heard from the room Blake was in as Aries quickly dashes towards the room with clothes on each of his hands. His eyes scan the room with Blake lying on the ground with the bottles and caps lying scattered on the ground.

The man before him lie grimacing as he held unto a giggling baby wriggling on his bare chest. Aries just raised a questioning brow as he crosses his arms over his bare chest as well.

"The fuck, pup!", Blake curse as looked at the baby before him with a mixture of fear and relief as he caressed the babe's deep brunette locks delicately as if it would brake. "Don't scare me like that again!"

Aries just shook his head as he walks towards the lying man as Blake just glared at the smiling baby.

"Stop smiling, pup. You know you're in deep shit!" Blake sternly scolds at the kid that was staring at him blankly when the kid decided to giggle and wiggle in Blake's grasp that he almost drop the baby but was fast enough that he caught him just in time. "God damn it, pup! I said you're in whole lot of trouble."

Aries chuckled as he sits over Blake's head while glaring playfully as Blake glares at the obnoxious baby.

"You know cursing in front of the kid is not good fathering." Aries spoke as he lay the clothes he was holding on his lap. Blake just growls as he eyes Aries as he held unto the baby by his arms.

"Tch!" Blake scoffs as Aries snake his hands behind the raven haired man bring his head resting on his crossed leg. "Don't go bitching on me 'cause we're married. So don't act some whore wife ..."

Aries caressed Blake's chin feeling the tiny hair sticking out. The buff guy paused and rests the baby over his chest and glared back at the man above him as if challenging him for a back talk but the bleach blonde man just smiled as he continues to caress Blake's chin.

"You need to shave." Aries spoke. He looks down and the baby was looking at him in awe.

"Cu." The baby chatters as he reaches out but failed as his hand lands on Blake's left cheek. "Cu. Cu." The little kid then kept slapping Blake's cheek.

"Fuck!" Blake cussed as he grabbed the baby roughly as he straighten his arms bringing the baby mid air. "The hell kid!" Blake glared as Aries swiftly grab the baby from Blake's hands before the red eyed man can do some harm.

"Blake." Aries groans as he cuddles the baby over his chest.

"What?! That kid is hitting me." Blake reasons out as he points at the giggling baby. "Fuck!"

"Blake." Aries narrows his eyes at Blake who just met his glare with the same intensity. "You should not speak like that in front of a child. What would your mother say?!"

Blake looked away with a growl as the the baby wiggled around Aries' arm as the young boy reaching his arm out to Blake.

"Fuck kid." Blake glares at the baby as it continues to reach out to Blake while babbling his baby gibberish. "Aries, take that thing away from me."

Aries raised a brow as he brought the baby towards his face as the kid calms down and cups his cheeks. Aries smiles and brought the baby near him and gave him a nice small kiss.

"Don't listen to him little man. He's just grumpy about his balls being blue." Aries smirks while the baby chuckles in response to Aries' words. "Isn't he? Isn't he?"

"Shut the fuck, Aye!" Blake groans as he slams his fist on the floor hard startling the baby in Aries' hands. The baby started to bawl and Aries suddenly look frightened. "Fuck!"

"Blake!" Aries glares at the raven haired man in front of him as Blake rolled his eyes and Aries shoved the baby in his arms. "I'm calling mom and your mom."

And quickly, Aries strode out of the room. The baby started to cry furiously in his hands and started to wiggle out of his hands. Blake just twitched his eyebrow in frustration.

"Fuck." He cussed silently as he cradles the kid in his arms and started to rock his arms back and fro gently. The kid continued to bawl hard as Blake gritted his teeth looking at the doorway and hoping Aries won't see him cradling the baby in his arms.

He looks down at the baby and glared.

"What do you want kid?!" He tried to make his scolding much subtle through gritted teeth. The kid paused and looked at him through teary eyes and Blake just looked at his side and the baby immediately bawled harder as it started to hit with his tiny hands over his bare chest.

Blake rolled his eyes and growled at the young baby but continued to rock him carefully. And suddenly he started to hum a tune while looking at the baby. His eyes traced the young babe's delicate features from his almost golden locks to the odd mixture of red and green iris.

"You know if I don't know better I would have guessed that you are just enjoying this fathering job." Aries smirks as he leans over the doorway with a warm bottle of milk on his right hand.

"Fuck you!" Blake glared at him before looking down at the drowsy eyed baby who was cradled against his chest. "Can't you see the kid's sleeping."

Aries just can't help but chuckle as he approached his lover slowly. Wrapping his arm over his hips as he rests his chin over Blake's shoulder. Taking a sniff over the crook of the red eye man making Blake growl but didn't complain.

"You know Bee." Aries started as he caressed Blake's abs. "You sure came around being the mother figure..."

"The hell!" Blake yelled making the baby stir as he quickly quiet down and rocks the baby smoothly again. Once settled he glared back at his lover who was smiling adoringly at him. "Fuck you." He mouthed.

"I love you." Aries mouthed back with a smile.

Blake shot a pensive glare before turning his head from Aries' line of sight. The other man turns around to look at Blake's face before looking down at the sleeping baby in his arms and a smile grew on his lips as his fingers carefully trace the kid's gold locks down to the smooth silk skin of his face.

"He's beautiful." Aries said and Blake just looked down in wonder and affection at the young boy in his arm.

"He's perfect. And Aye..." Blake spoke making Aries look up at him, meeting his gaze. "... Don't call him beautiful."

"What every you say, Bee." Aries smirk as he slowly closes the gap between his and Blake's lips. The warmth of their breath was scorching their faces as time seem to stop.

"Achu!" The baby sneezed catching both males off guard making them look down at the young boy scrunching his button nose.

Slowly the baby stirred around Blake's arms as it hands clasps into the air as its eyes lazily flutter open. Aries smiles and reaches a milk bottle over the baby and it just stared blankly at the weird object placed before it.

"What the hell are you doing?" Blake glared at Aries who shot him a confused look.

"Mom said to prepare him a bottle in case he's hungry." Aries reasoned out. Blake rolled his eyes and walked the opposite side of the room as he placed the baby over his shoulder. "Blake."

Blake growled lowly as he enters a room with a wolf pup picture pinned over the door and switched the light open while Aries followed him from behind with concern looming over his face. His eyes followed Blake's movements and can't help but wonder what's going over his mind right now.

Blake approaches a small wooden dresser near the window and with his free hand pulls each drawer open until he found the one he was looking for and pulled a small blue pacifier with a tiny wolf tag dangling over the end. Aries smiled and leaned quietly over the doorway while Blake closes the last drawer.

He turns around and with a glare of his red eyes looks at Aries menacing. Aries shook his head while holding the chuckle in his lungs.

"Well." Blake growled as he offers the baby the pacifier as the young boy stares at the object wondering.

"Gentle." Aries mused as he traced his hand over Blake's as he approached him from his back.

The baby looked at them with awe and wonder before looking back at the blue pacifier. Blake frowned and looked over at Aries who swiftly stole a quick peck over his lips before grinning like a lunatic.

"Gentle." Aries repeated and Blake glared back.

With a defeated sigh he looks down at the kid with loop side smile almost a grin as he offered the pacifier once more. The baby reach out with a smile and Blake felt in anticipation as finally the baby brought the suction cup over his lips. With a smirk, Blake puffed his chest proudly and looked smugly at Aries.

Aries smiled in response as he gave Blake a sweet kiss over his cheek. Blake just looked over the baby lovingly as he rocks him lightly as he sucks over the pacifier. Aries started planting chaste kissing over Blake's neck down to the two visible marks over the crook of his neck.

The tanned man shivered at the intimate action but held a smile as he looked at the baby in his arms.

"Fucker." Blake quipped over gritted teeth. "I'm going to pound you so hard that you can't use those damn legs of yours for a year."

Aries smirked.

"Talking dirty are we?" He mused, snaking his arms under Blake's waist earning a glare at the man in front of him. "'Cause it 's working... But I don't know if you can deliver, Mister Storm."

"Funny." Blake smirk as he turns around facing Aries with his lover's arms still over his waist. "You seem to forget that you ..."

In a quick motion, Aries leaned over and kissed Blake's lips and it wasn't subtle. The kiss lingered longer and was heated. Aries tongue snakes over Blake's lips requesting access which the other man allowed not before biting over it lightly and sucking it in afterwards earning a moan from the bleach blonde man.

Blake was the first to pull out as he looks at the red cheeks of Aries who was flustered. With a grin he escaped from his lovers grasps and walks towards the crib couple of steps away from them and lay the sleeping baby over the white and blue sheets. Slowly lowering the babe's head carefully and once settled he brought the blanket over half over the baby's tummy and lightly admired the prints of wolves cuddled together over the baby blue sheets.

Aries approached him and slowly leans down to peck the baby over the forehead. He stood up and placed his hand over Blake's over the edge of the crib while his thumb caressed the back side of his hand.

"I still can't believe it." Blake croaked as he seem to stifle a sob from escaping his mouth. "I can't help that we have our own pup. Our pup."

Aries clasps their hands together and just smiled before bringing them to his lips, kissing them. Blake rolled his eyes but didn't complain. He grasp their hands together and pulled Aries to his side making the other man gasp in surprise as other hand planted firmly over Blake's buff chest.

"You like it?" Blake cooed as he leans over and licks Aries' mark gaining a moan from his lover. "I can break you now if I want to but there's a baby in the room. I must consider right?"

Blake gave Aries a challenging look that the other man just retaliated back after Blake bit Aries' skin over the crook of his neck and shoulder. The other man rolled his eyes and glared back.

"Well, when did you became a considerate person, hmmm..?" Aries quipped as he traced his fingers over Blake's mark making the man before him shiver. Blake watched Aries with so much feral lust that his eyes practically glowed crimson in the dark.

"Just shut the fuck up, Aye." Blake spoke deeply over Aries' ear as he placed his right hand at the back of Aries' nape and breathing heavily over his lover's cheeks making the blonde man catch his breath. "I still remember how you become like putty in my hands when I do this. Shit."

Blake ran his hand over Aries' waist closes to the waistband of his pajamas as Aries tried to stifle a moan from escaping his lips when Blake licked the entrance of his ear. Aries hitched an escaped breath as his labored breathing got harder through crimson cheeks when Blake snaked his fingers under his pants.

"How inappropriate for an Alpha." Blake mused as he looked at Aries' flustered state.

"Bl-lake. There's a ba... Ah!" Aries croaked.

"Don't be silly. Just enjoy this." Blake whispered as he gripped Aries' rod, feeling its warmth and hard, smooth tool against his palm. "Already this hard?! Eh. Aren't you so naughty tonight."

"Blake, e-enough already." Aries moaned as he took his last bit of self control to pull himself off Blake's grasps. "Seriously, Blake. Don't you have any self control.?"

Blake smirked mischievously and devilishly at him as he crosses his arms. Aries glares at him and sighed deeply before averting his gaze, hiding a prominent blush. The other man slowly approached Aries and paused just besides him on a comfortable silence.

The chilly room air was not even uncomfortable between the two barely clothed males as they stood side by side in a serene silence. Feeling each other's warmth emanating from their bodies as they felt them wrap around their skins.

"You know..." Blake started.

"Yeah."

"uhm..." Blake paused finding hard to say the words. Looking forward, Blake's hand twitched almost touching Aries' hand.

"Yeah."

"You know..." Blake's voice cracked. "... I love..."

Aries' eyes darts towards Blake without turning his head. Anticipation building from the pit of his stomach. Blake bit his lower lip as he seem to be unable to say the word.

"I know." He smiled.

"No. You don't." Blake interjected with a dejected tone. "It's just... For so long, I've never said it. To you at least." He looks at Aries and he was met with the other man's gaze. Blake couldn't believe that staring into Aries' Green orbs where as breathtaking as the first time he saw them, bewitching even.

"You don't have to say them to let me know." Aries smiled reaching towards Blake's hand. "I've always have believe in you. In us."

Blake chuckled darkly as he averted looking at Aries' eyes.

"Yeah. And all those times I've cause nothing but pain." Blake spoke with hate as his eyes grew darker than their bright crimson. "And I hate myself for that. And most of those time I hated myself on how weak I am."

"Blake."

"No. Don't say that I'm not, Aye. I am." Blake looked at Aries with dark red orbs peering into the the darkness. "If I were, I shouldn't have done all those horrible stuff to hurt you. Heh... What the fucking hell of a mate I came out to be."

Aries shook his head and looked at Blake with nothing but love shining in his eyes. He gripped their hands together as he comforts the man before him.

"I said in once and will say it all over again in your face if I have to." Aries started. "I don't care."

"Aye..."

"You deserve happiness too, Blake. And even how much you think you don't deserve this. Us." Aries reasons out." Him. I will be here to say it otherwise. Because I love you Blake. Mate or not. I love you and nothing will change that, dumb jock."

"Fuck you!" Blake can't help but stifle a tear as he averted his gaze once more but Aries held his cheek with his right hand. "Fuck you Aye! I fucking hate you!"

"I know." Aries smiles as he ran his thumb over Blake's eye. Wiping away a stray tear that somehow got into his lover's eye.

Blake let out an audible grunt but didn't swayed the man before him away. Instead he stared directly into the man's evergreen eyes that shone within the darkness of the room.

They remained there in silence as no words were needed in the confines of their hearts.
