Welcome to Atlantis Academy! (Lia && Chokuro)

The knock at the door opened Nikkos' eyes and he looked at the girl critically. The brunette wasn't sure what to think, and he was curious as to who the hell she was, and why she thought she'd find Tomias here. "Depending on who you are, I may know where he, or his body parts, are," Nikkos answered carefully, sitting up fully now. He really didn't want to have to kill his husband, but he might be willing to depending on how the woman answered.
 
"Oh. I'm--"
"Rosalie!" Tomias perked up, seeing his sister and he smiled as he waddled to where she was. "Hey." He then turned to NIkkos. "sibling! SIBLING! Not ...not my kid." He stated and pulled her into a hug, nuzzling her head with a grin. "So hey! What brings you here?" he asked, leaning back to look at the woman.
Rosalie blinked before she sighed and buried her head into his chest. "Mias... I don't know what to do." She whispered, hugging him tighter and then nuzzling into him before another whimper passed.
 
Child actually would have been preferable to what he'd been thinking, but Nikkos kept his mouth shut and struggled to his feet to greet the woman. He didn't get a chance to, though, before she clung onto Tomias. The brunette raised an eyebrow but said nothing as he guided the two to the sofa he'd just been occupying. Nikkos sat in his chair at his desk, pulling out a sleeve of soda crackers to munch on while he worked. And eavesdropped.
 
Tomias looked down at the woman, hands cupping her chin as he looked down at the woman. "Rosalie? what's wrong?" He asked, fingers pushing through her hair and small smile to his lips, hoping to comfort her.
"i'm pregnant!" She cried, rubbing at her eyes and she shook her head a few times. "And... not in a good way!" She whispered, pulling him tighter. "I... I was attacked, Mias." She sniffled and nuzzled him. "I... don't konw what to do! I can't just... just get rid of the baby. it... it isn't it's fault what happened..."
 
Nikkos looked up. Tomias knew he was listening and so he didn't really hide it. He felt sympathy for his sister in law (though he'd only met her when she was a very little girl a couple of times). The brunette stood and handed a box of kleenex to his husband, unsure of how else to help. He wanted to ask questions, but was unsure if Rosalie would welcome them. They didn't know each other, after all. Instead, he stood by awkwardly, looking at his lover for guidance.
 
Rosalie closed her eyes and then looked over at Nikkos. "You can ask the questions," Mind-reading as a trait of anyone that Andrea had popped out, so she was one of those. Though, it was more annoying because she could not really control it all that well now that she was pregnant. That was the first sign she had.
 
Shaking his head, he really should have known. The brunette sat beside his husband to offer moral support. "Did you report it?" Perhaps a stupid question. A sibling of Rune and Relic likely killed the bastard before he took two steps in the other direction. But still, he had to ask. And Nikkos didn't really wait for an answer. Instead, he smacked Tomias' arm. "Why are you still here? Take her home!"
 
"NO!" Rosalie shook her head. "I can't go home! Mom... mom and dad...they... they don't know. No one knows!" She shivered and shook her head. "It.. it was a demon. That um... That's all that I know. And... And I couldn't tell them. I ... haven't really been home and I d--"
"Rosa." Tomias cupped her chin with a smile. "He meant our home. Nikkos and Mine." He smiled and then pulled her into a tight hug. "Nikkos. You should come with us. I can see your aches and pains."
 
He only nodded to confirm Mias' words before kissing his cheek. "I'll be there soon. I have some more stuff to take care of before I leave." Even if going home sounded like the most wonderful thing in the world right then. "I'll even pick up dinner on the way." He gave another kiss to Tomias and squeezed Rosalie's shoulder in support before returning to his desk. "Call Jupiter!" he added as an afterthought. If no one knew, then the girl had to be checked for her own safety and his peace of mind. The brunette set back to work, wanting to finish as quickly as possible.
 
"Get some peach cobbler. Or .the ingredients. Calder makes the best." he smiled, knowing his sister loved cobbler, and seeing her eyes light up only made the request better. He kissed his cheek before taking his sister and leading the way to their house. Calling Jupiter on the way so that he would meet htem there. He led his sister through the house, giving her a room to lie down in and so that they could chit chat a little more.
 
It was only a few hours before Nikkos arrived home, ingredients dropped off next door with little explanation. He wanted to get off of his feet and check on both Tomias and Rosalie. He'd spoken to Jupiter after he'd checked on the woman, declaring her physically healthy given the circumstances. The brunette walked through the door and made his way upstairs to find his lover, kissing him when he did. "So?"
 
Tomias pulled him into a hug with a sigh. "She'll be okay." He smiled "She's going to sleep until dinner." He nodded and then kissed his lips. "Want some help?" He offered, arm looping around his husband's hips, pulling him tighter to his form as he walked through the halls. "And you should really sit too."
 
He nodded and leaned into his lover with a soft sigh. He was tired, but worried about Rosalie, too. "I know. But I'm not used to sitting around all day." Nikkos pouted a little bit and kissed Tomias a few times before heading back downstairs, tugging his lover along with him. He could use the help, and he wanted the company. "Does she know what she's going to do?" he asked while beginning to unpack the take out food he picked up on his way home.
 
Tomias nodded. "She will be fine." He reassured with a kiss to his head before he walked through to the kitchen. He sighed as he rested against the kitchen counter. "She wants to stay here. Have the baby and give it up for adoption." He shrugged and turned to look at the male next to him. "Though... I think maybe... we should take the baby. "
 
Nikkos nodded as Tomias talked. He was listening and processing but really didn't have much to add. Until the last was said, and then he looked up. "Mias..." Under normal circumstances, he'd have agreed. But they were both pregnant. Three babies all at once? Could they handle it? "I... I mean..." Really, the brunette was speechless with the suggestion, even though he really wished he had something to say. But what could be said, really? Sighing, Nikkos voiced his concerns as he sat at the table, unsure now.
 
Tomias smiled warmly as his lover and kissed his lips. "By the time the baby comes around, these two will be afew months old and we've done triplets before!" He reminded, kissing his lips lightly. "I think it will be okay.' He stated and pulled him into a tight hug , kissing his lips once more before sitting down with a sigh.
 
Nodding, Nikkos knew that Tomias was right. Still, he was a little worried about it. He was worried about it the first time, too! "What about a nanny?" he suggested, looking over to Tomias. "We weren't as busy then as we are now. We had a huge office to share and bring the kids with us... We have at least three months to interview until I pop. Even if we wait until you do..."
 
Tomias smiled, shaking his head a few times before he pulled the other into a kiss, sighing lightly. "Sweetie. You are too cute. You think I would deny you a nanny? Honestly, just call them up. Interview them and I'll pick out of hte top three. If we even get that many. " Their reputation was out there to be crazy. Wealthy, but still crazy.
 
Nikkos smiled and nuzzled Tomias' cheek. "If we were Rune and Calder, we'd scare people off... At least we're semi normal compared to him?" he asked, half joking. Besides, the person who was eventually hired didn't have to meet or interact with most of the family...

The brunette put the word out that they were looking for a nanny, but that they were taking their time in making a decision. He had a few nibbles, but most he got skived around and turned them down flat out without even mentioning them to Tomias. One was so rude that he "referred" him to Rune with a shudder and no remorse.
 
Tomias groaned. Everything was annoying. They had yet to find a nanny. He was getting bigger and sicker. It was annoying. He barely made it out of bed in these past few days. He currently was laying in the covers, cocooned into his own happy bubble. And mainly happy so that he did not have to think about what was going on in his stomach.
 
Groaning, Nikkos waddled over to the bed and began poking his husband, uncaring where he was poking, exactly. "Mias..." The brunette was whining, and then doubled over in pain with a contraction, gripping wherever on his lover his hand had landed. "Get up, ass!" he ground out, squeezing harder. "Before I call Rune to jump on the bed!" The contraction began to let up, thank god, and Nikkos took the time in between to shake his husband a little more violently.
 
Tomias looked up at the other, brows furrowing as he stared at the other. "Nikkos?" He asked, looking into his eyes. He slowly began to stand up, sighing a little more before it clicked. "oh!" He groaned, pushing his form up and wanting to help him. He sat upright before his own pains hit. His hand pressed into his sides and he gasped as he felt the pain surge through his body." Shit shit. Get in bed. I... I'll call Jupiter..." He managed to get out somehow, helping the other up and into the bed before he hobbled into the other room. He called up Jupiter, snatching the phone up on the way and mumbling to Jupiter to get down here and help his love before he threw the phone away.
 
He groaned further but didn't argue. He'd have been stupid to argue. The brunette climbed into the bed, hissing with more pain. It seemed like forever until Jupiter got there, and Nikkos was never so happy to see him. He pointed to Tomias, knowing, feeling, that something was off about him. He was in his third trimester and still sick. He hadn't been like that with the others. Nikkos groaned a little more, trying to remind himself to breathe.

Jupiter observed the room and groaned. Maybe he should make Sebastian go to medical school... Shaking his head, the god picked up the phone and dialed both his husband and the hospital. "Get over here. I need help." Hanging up the phone, he guided Tomias back to the bed. "To the hospital you gooooo!" he informed a bit too cheerily for the situation.
 
Tomias groaned as he was taken away from his toilet, his guts spilling into the bowl -- it literally looking like guts at some point. He lifted his head to look at Jupiter, tears in his eyes. "Jupiter..." he whimpered and hugged the other. "This... this isn't right!" He rested his hands on his face and buried his face into his hands, falling onto his side.

Sebastian did not waste much time before he was in the room, walking over to Nikkos. "Hey. You're going to be okay." He said simply then turned to look at the two on the other side. "Um. What are we doing?"
 
"I know, babe." It was all he could say as he took Tomias' weight on him and began to lead him downstairs. Looking over his shoulder, Jupiter answered Sebastian. "Help him downstairs. We're going to the hospital." It was nicer, now that Nikkos was in charge of the city. Hospitals were staffed with specialists on male pregnancy, and they weren't looked at as freaks. It didn't take long to settle the two in a car, Nikkos in back just in case. Jupiter hopped into the drivers side and sped off, not really paying attention to what car or whose he'd taken.

The hospital was close, thank goodness, and when they got to the ER, the brunette handed Nikkos off to the attending physician while he followed Tomias. "Go with Nikkos," he asked Sebastian, pecking a quick kiss as he rushed off to help Mias.
