“I will have to go over a few things before I can completely sign off on this.” The caseworker said as Deanna now sat up on the bed along with her brother, keeping him from falling, and Max propped up on the wall next to them.

“We know,” Max said with a smile. “You need to run a background check on both of us, and you need to check out the house.”

“I forgot that you are on this side of this.” The caseworker said with a smile, “Now if you both could write down your information and then I can go over the check quickly. I can do a walkthrough tonight if you are willing to allow it. I believe they are waiting on a few tests for Henry, and then they will decide on what to do next.”

Deanna took the clipboard and wrote everything down quickly as she thought about what they wer

    They walked through the store, looking at the different things for toddlers. She really didn’t want to buy too much for her brother, not knowing how long they would have him. She looked at a pack and play and thought it would be good for at least the time being to keep the boy in his bed. Max was watching her as she was trying to decide.She went to get the item she was looking at while he was looking towards an actual crib for the boy. He looked down at him as he sat quietly in the cart and was looking around at the food was an aisle over. Max smiled at the boy and waited till Deanna placed the item in the cart. He shook his head at her choice.“Why don’t you pick out a real crib as well?” Max asked as he looked at her, and she looked pained for even having to get the portable bed. He knew the reason was she didn’t like to

    After he ordered dinner and looked at the clock, Max sighed, knowing it would be a little later than he had hoped it would take. The detour at the hospital and then the store, it was well past seven now, and dinner would be an hour at least because it was Friday. The day was long and had been full of emotions he had forgotten he had.He looked over to where Henry was standing and smiled. He walked up behind the little toddler and swooped him up into the air. It surprised the baby in his arms but also brought out a smile, unlike anything he had ever seen. “Well, what do you think, buddy? Do you like it here.” Max asked in the boy's ear.When Henry nodded and touched Max’s face lightly, Max smiled at him and then turned to face her. Deanna was on the couch, looking at the pair as Max began to play with her brother. She looked at the toddler closely like she was seeing

    As he kissed her, he knew she was the one for him. It was simple in his mind. Though he knew what he wanted and what she was willing to give him, he also knew that it was too soon for that to happen. They needed to find their feet together and become established as their own people who were also part of being a couple. He let all the thoughts flood his mind as they lay on the bed with the meeting of their mouths and the air around them, becoming charged with everything they felt for each other.His hand was roaming her body as he also cupped her the nape of her neck. When he broke the kiss to be able to breathe for a moment, he felt drunk. He was drunk on happiness and her. Deanna was the only one who could make him feel so lost, but, at the same time, so grounded. His hand dropped from her shoulder to trace the lines of the sides of her body. As his hand lay flat on her stomac

    Max woke up in the middle of the night to a sound coming from outside the room. For a split second, he couldn’t place the sound even though he knew he had heard it before. As he blinked his eyes open to glance at the clock which read, 2:45, he knew something wasn't right. The soft weight he had on his chest and leg he could place easily as being Deanna. He moved slowly and placed her head on the pillow gently as he bent down and got his sleep pants off the floor that he never had a chance to put on for the night and hopped in them.As he got to the door the day before, hit him, and he knew exactly what the noise was. He opened the door and then shut it behind him as he reached the portable crib that was in the middle of the living room floor. He saw that henry was whining but with his little eyes completely shut. A few tears had escaped and had left tear trails down his c

    The morning light lit up the bedroom as Max groaned as he once again heard a noise in the other room, though when he blinked his eyes open, he didn’t feel the soft, warm weight on his chest that he had grown accustomed to. He looked around and saw that Deanna was not next to him, and the door that he knew he had left open after he had got up with Henry was closed. He moved and stretched as he stood and went to the door and opened it. Though he was still half asleep, he saw Deanna in the kitchen as she was talking to the floor, at least it looked like that to him from the angle he was at in the room.She looked up and saw him and smiled as she walked over and prepared him a cup of coffee. As he walked over to take it from her small hands and look down to find a toddler waddling around. “Good morning, my sweet.” Max said as he bent down to kiss her quickly, &ldq

    They found themselves at her apartment a few hours later. Max was running the show while she had Henry close by as he was trying to help. Max had a couple of his fellow officers there, and they were all understanding about his need to get her out of the apartment. Everyone worked well and quickly as they loaded the truck up with the furniture and the boxes the pair had left. Soon she was walking through the apartment with someone from the office, and she was signing papers to release her from the apartment.Max was waiting by the car as his friends were in the truck. Henry was making everyone laugh with his faces to things as they waited for her to be done. When they walked out, she stopped and looked back at the apartment and smiled. It had been her place for nearly four years. She knew it was time to move on to other things.She got into the car as Ma

    Deanna walked away from the scene of people everywhere and hit the send button to her father’s number. She waited for the answer though she wasn't all that hopeful he would answer.“Hello?’ her father finally spoke as he sounded tired and dejected when he talked.“Dad?” Deanna asked as she knew this wasn’t going to be easy to ask the questions she had too.“What do you want?” he spoke with a harshness she rarely heard from him. She sighed, knowing it was going to be like this.“Dad, I have a few questions to ask.” She said as she lowered her voice instinctively, and she then realized that he had conditioned her as well. She knew then it didn’t matter how he snapped at her. She was an adult and didn’t need his approval for things anym

    After everyone left, she was upstairs going through the boxes that they had placed in the far bedroom. She knew she wouldn’t be sleeping there and decided that it would be the guest room if they even had any. Though she was still contemplating everything, she learned she pulled out an old textbook about genetics and started to go through it.She remembered a chapter on what would happen if the two parents were related and the things that could be enhanced by that fact. She found it and was engrossed as they started with a first relation relationship, which she knew was what she was the result of. Though the textbook Was giving the worst-case possibilities, she saw a major pattern to them. Though she did not have almost any of the effects that were described, she saw a few that were the possibility of the rela

    Max enjoyed the time they had when it was just the four of them doing the normal things a young family would do. When they got home every day it was a simple process for her to start dinner and then do some of the things around the house that needed to be done. She had a schedule for everything and she would start a load of laundry. Go into the bathrooms and spray them done for it to be rinsed off and wiped down at a later time. She kept the house looking pretty well despite the fact they had a toddler that liked to spread his toys nearly every where throughout the house.Max would get down on the floor and play with Henry or take the kids outside for some fresh air. After they ate dinner they would settle in for a show on the tv as he held one of the kids and she did the other. Then it was time for baths and bedti

    The rest of the day they worked side by side knowing that the storm being on the horizon for some time. They also knew the love they had found in the simple setting of the office they shared during the day and their house at night would sustain them for the rest of their days if they let it. There would be times they had to fight but there would more times to love each other and the two children they both loved.Battles were headed their way and Max knew as he looked at Deanna that there was nothing more he could do to love her but he would fight for her until the day he died. A student who had turned his head so many years ago was the reason for him to go on with his life. There was nothing that was more important than she was to him.

    A few days later, they were in the basement office. Deanna looked across the desk to see Max, who was talking to Michelle in his arms as she held Henry on her lap. She had been thinking of the past few days and how she had the chance to grieve her sister’s loss and even the ones she had thought of as her parents only because of Max’s help. That Monday, she had been able to make it to the couch and not much further. Max had kept the children close so he could keep up with their demands as well as being there to dry her tears, make her laugh again, and, most importantly, be her rock in this sea that had become her life.The day they started to bring all the children’s stuff into the building, people did a double-take. She had hoped he wouldn’t make a big deal about everything, but he didn&rsqu

    “Well, Deanna, I mean that isn’t the rudest thing you have said when picking up the phone,” Indie said as Deanna could hear the self-righteous tone take over. It was the same one her mother had used throughout her life when Deanna had stood up for herself and wanted to go her own way instead of the one her mother had planned out for her. Now she knew it had to be to cover up how she really was, mentally disturbed and controlling. “I wanted to discuss Mother and Father’s services with you, and then we will have to talk about Justine’s at a later date.”“Indie, you don’t have to discuss anything with me about the services I won’t be going to any one of them except Justine’s,” Deanna said, and it felt like a weight was lifted off her chest.

    Her phone started ringing constantly. She was trying to ignore it with everything that she was, but when Max picked up the phone and looked at the caller ID, he tossed the phone to her. “If you ignore everyone, they will keep calling.”“I don’t want to talk to them,” Deanna said as she put the phone on the table as she went back to watching television with Henry snuggled up next to her.“Then let me talk to them,” Max said as he picked up the phone.“Go right ahead.” Deanna laughed. Max looked at the phone.“Hello?” he

    The four of them sat together on the couch for what seemed to be hours just enjoying the relative quiet. It was Deanna who finally broke the silence. “I can’t go to the funerals for my parents.”“We don’t have to think about that right now,” Max said as he rubbed her back as she snuggled into his side a bit more. “Right now, nothing is planned, and you don’t have to even think about it.”“The rest of them will make a big deal about it,” Deanna said with a sigh as she looked up at him. “This is such a mess. I can’t do it though whether I say it now, or later I refuse to go.”

    Deanna helped Max bring everything into the house from the car’s truck after he brought Henry in, and She had unlatched the baby’s car seat and started to bring it in. She looked down at the baby, and she smiled softly as she knew everything in her life had been turned upside down, and nothing was what it seemed. Though they knew that she could be stunted in ways right now, she was perfect.“What’s going on in that beautiful mind of yours?” Max said as she put the baby down in the middle of the floor, still in her car seat.“Max, we went from just us to now the four of us in a matter of days. My parents and sister are both dead, and David has been arrested, and
