Once a wife twice a baby.

"I wasn't sure honestly. I was going to ask you what you had in mind" Chris replied back.

Tony after he was dressed went to spend a little time with his sister.

[Anon17a]

Mary smiled. "How's about your favorite then?" She said as she nuzzled his cheek a little.

Thea hugged him as she cuddled him closely. "How have you been, baby?" She asked

[Sephy]

"Sounds good, but shouldn't we make something special for Tony?" Chris replied.

"I've been fine. I miss Lila" Tony whined softly.

[Anon17a]

"Sure, what do you want to make?" Mary asked as she was busy coddling her oldest for the moment.

[Sephy]

"Pizza or pasta" Chris replied Tony tends to like Italian.

Tony relaxed in his sister's embrace. "I've missed you too Theie"

[Anon17a]

"I think Tony prefers pizza more." Mary said as she hugged Chris.

"Heeeh. I've missed you too, my darling." Thea said as she smiled at him.

[Sephy]

"Okay we can make that. We could make my favorite for lunch tomorrow" Chris replied.

Tony felt comfortable and happy with his sister. He had a smile on his face while he hugged her.

[Anon17a]

"Alright, sweetheart." Mary said as she softly rubbed his back and sighed.

Thea nuzzled him softly as she looked at him. "You're so cute."

[Sephy]

"Should we make garlic bread too, or do you think pizza is enough mom?" Chris asked as he started on the sauce.

Tony fell into a light sleep.

[Anon17a]

"Hm? I don't know. It's up to you." Mary said as she watched him. She felt like if she took her eyes off him, he would leave again.

Thea chuckled. "It's not time to sleep yet, baby brother."

[Sephy]

"I'll just make it an enlarged pizza." Chris replied as he started work on the dough.

Tony woke up slightly. "Uhm" he said as he opened his eyes.

[Anon17a]

Mary got up as she started to help Chris make the pizza.

"Save it for night time, sweetie. Or you won't be able to sleep." Thea said as she kissed his cheek.

[Sephy]

Chris enjoyed his time with his mom.

"I'm tired" Tony whined.

[Anon17a]

Mary smiled as she placed a little flour on his nose.

"Shhhh. No whining now. You're a big boy. You'll be able to stay awake for a whole longer." Thea said as she softly stroked his hair.

[Sephy]

Chris chuckled as his mother's playfulness.

Tony nodded before he shook the sleepiness out of his head.

[Anon17a]

Mary giggled as she continued to spend her time with her first baby.

Thea brought Tony to the living room and played some board games with him.

[Sephy]

While Chris was shedding cheese he asked his mother in shushed tone. "What did you and dad get them?"

[Anon17a]

"We got them their own place." Mary said softly as she looked up at Chris and smiled

[Sephy]

"Wow" Chris replied back. "That one heck of a gift. I need to think of something I could get them."

Tony got up to go to the bathroom

[Anon17a]

"I'm sure they'll love whatever you get them." Mary said as she gently held his hand.

Thea waited for him and played with her phone while she waited

[Sephy]

Chris held his mother's hand for a moment. She was able to give each of her children confidence. Even Tony could find confidence with his mom's help.

Tony came back and sat beside his sister again. He played with his head on her side.

[Anon17a]

Mary kissed his cheek a little and then placed the pizzas in the oven. "While that's baking, do you wanna cuddle up on the couch?" She asked

Thea smiled softly as she kissed his head and continued their game.

[Sephy]

"I guess we could, won't you rather have Tony for that" Chris was discovering himself while he was living on his own. In this time he hadn't had much in physical contact lately, so he was no longer use to his family's physical closeness.

Tony was enjoying himself and his and his sister's game.

[Anon17a]

"Well, Tony's with Thea." Mary said as an excuse where she really just wanted to cuddle with Chris cause he's not around as often anymore. She lead him to the couch as she laid down and held him in her embrace and sighed softly. Perhaps Tony got his clinginess from Mary after all.

Thea smiled as she saw her big brother and mother together. "How cute.."

[Sephy]

Tony felt a little jealous again and squeezed his sister.

Chris laid back with his mother. "I only do this for you mom"
