Once a wife twice a baby.

Thea sniffled and applied some cream to his bruise. "My poor Tony. You're okay now. I'm here." She hugged him and sniffed again. She was so upset at what had been done.

[Sephy]

"I'm fine Thea, just in a little pain that's all." Tony replied trying to comfort Thea.

[Anon17a]

Thea placed his shirt down. "It's not funny Will. He hurt Tony so Chris did the same." She said and gently stroked Tony's hair. "That cream should help."

[Sephy]

"Thanks sis" Tony replied as he went back to work. "Honey want to come help us?"

Lila soon came and joined them making decorations together

[Sephy]

"Don't tell Lila about my back" Tony whispered to Thea.

[Anon17a]

Thea nodded and rubbed her eyes. Lila helped decorating without asking anything

[Sephy]

Tony worked laid on Lila's side. "What did mom make for the party?" He asked looking to Thea.

[Anon17a]

Thea regained her composure. "All sorts of yummy food!" She said cheerily.

[Sephy]

"Let's set these up" Tony said slowly standing up. It hurt his back

[Anon17a]

Thea helped Tony as best as she could while Lila helped as well

[Sephy]

As the group did their work Jack came back in. He was still hurting like Tony, but wasn't trying to hide it. "Thanks a lot cry baby." He said with a growl.

[Anon17a]

Thea quickly held Tony trying to protect him if Jack was going to hit him again.

Lila was curious. "What happened?"

[Sephy]

"I playfully tapped the whiner and he had Chris hit me in the back" Jack answered walking to the kitchen.

[Anon17a]

Thea huffed. "Please. You hit him in the back first, jerk!" She kissed Tony's head gently.

"Are you alright, babe?" Lila asked

[Sephy]

"I'm fine sweetheart. It's just a bruise" Tony replied from Thea's arms.

[Anon17a]

Lila kissed Tony's cheek and looked at Thea. "Thanks for always looking out for him.

Thea smiled and nodded. "He's my baby brother. I have to protect him from those goons."

[Sephy]

Tony heard his wife and sister talk, but it seemed at it was more like his mommy was talking to his babysitter. He began blushing

[Anon17a]

Thea saw him blush and giggled. "He's so cute when he blushes." She let go of him and smiled.

Lila giggled as well.

[Sephy]

Tony froze as his face went crimson. He didn't know what to do. If he tried to leave it would only make things worse. There was even the chance of Jack wanting revenge. He was better off with the girls, so he couldn't do anything.

[Anon17a]

"It's just so hard to see him getting hit all the time." Thea said and sighed. "I need to talk to Chris." She said and got up to look for him.

Lila smiled at Tony. "You're very lucky to have her."

[Sephy]

"We can tell her" Tony said with renewed courage. "She'll treat me well little or big"

[Anon17a]

"I think it's best we tell when we visit. Just so no one will hear hmm?" Lila said

"Chris. This is getting out of control. Tony is not a punching bag." Thea said. "Will you just tell those goons to lay off?"

[Sephy]

"Yeah it can wait" Tony replied rubbing his back slightly.

[Anon17a]

Lila hugged him and kissed his cheek.

Thea brought over Will and Jack. "You two have been on Tony's case ever since he was born."
