[CHUCK MCCOY]

✧ RIP ✧

I was the hella happiest man alive (or dead)!!!

More than usual. My existence with my gorgeous, badass wife was reason enough to hold the happiest mantle. But this news she dropped on me bro… That she was pregnant, with not one but two (!!) of our kids sent me over the edge. Skyhigh and outta the ozone. I was so happy, I just ain’t even know where to start. While she slept that same night, I clutched her in my arms, marveling her for a few hours only to tear my gaze away to my phone. There was so much to learn!! First of all, how were babies made? Then was there something I was supposed to do? How to support her above all, be the best husband and dad ever. No surprise, there ain’t any guide book out there for doing what we gotta do, just like there was no manual for surviving after you got arrested and bailed out.

Tons of good shit filtered my mind. Like getting life insurance, whatever that was, securing ass-ets and making a financial plan even tho I ain’t got a bank. A million ways more to surprise her, make this all easy as possible for her. She was giving life!! That shit was blowing my mind!! Way deep in the night, I got up and out of bed, swept off to the spare room of our apartment. I had a weapon, one at least, in every room of the apartment. Sometimes multiple under cabinets, surfaces, behind things, etc. I swept past her knitting nook, tugged off the glock and put it in my pants. Then the nunchucks, the sawtooth knives (3). Can’t have the babies using that. Not yet.

Then I got to work!! I was just hella excited, my every atom practically bombinated with it!! Up until sunrise I was building, quietly as possible with a wood saw and hammers!! Nails all perfectly painted from my love the day before, hella careful not to chip the paint! When it was all done, I swept sweat off my brow, watching sunlight pour over fresh-sanded wooden panels and… things (that were a surprise!!).



Then I went to work cooking for my baby!! Who had two babies in her!! Was I supposed to make more food? Was there food she ain’t able to eat any more?? Between the both of us (the four of us!) I dumped in the whole carton of eggs, a whole pack of bacon, beans, pancake batter and so much more onto the stove!! Chopped up so many fruits, set out the syrup, all of that! Then used my fours arms to cart it all back to our room!!

“Hey beautiful,” I’d whisper if she was awake, spooling her bangs around her horns so I could kiss her on the forehead before setting up the plates. If not, I’d gently scoot back into the room anyway, watching her sleep.

She never slept as soundly as she did that night. Knowing that he was by her side, that she was pregnant and that their little family was all cuddled up together. Safe, home in his arms. That night she dreamt the sweetest dream, same as usual, just her and Chuck in the cozy surroundings. Picnic? Chilling in the reading nook, or on a boat ride with him and the lil ones? They were simple dreams, but not any less sweet for it. In her dream, the bell above her door jingled as Chuck came in, carrying the twins in his arms on the hunt for some of her best pastries. A bakery and a happy family didn’t sound bad at all. No Blaine Kaneko, no nasty villain debt, none of that could hurt them or their kids.

Was she scared of becoming a mom? Of all the new responsibilities her and Chuck would have to take on? How this would fundamentally change every part of their life? Absolutely. She was hella scared, but hella more excited that she was doing this with her soulmate. It was scary, but it was worth it. The amount of joy and love she had already felt in the last few hours was more than enough to last her a lifetime and a few more! She hadn’t forgotten his reaction either, played that moment on repeat in her head, the cutest intermission between the sappiest and most wholesome dreamscapes.

When he got up to work on something, she continued to dream away.

After a long night she finally woke up to the sound of Chuck. Was he carting something around? “Chuchu?” She muttered, smiling practically the moment she woke up and saw him, feeling safer than ever as he kissed her forehead. With her bangs out of her eyes she reached a tired hand up, hoping to give him a good morning kiss herself. “What’s all this?” She rubbed her eye with one hand as she sat up and looked down at the plates. “How long have ya been awake? What time is it? Ah could’ve helped ya.” Even if she was pregnant it was not like she expected him to do all the work now, although he probably would, happily too. “Ya gonna join us?” She smiled, patting part of the bed next to her.

I was so hella eager, my every nerve was tingling!! I just couldn’t wait for my sleepy succubus to wake up. As if I needed to confirm, for the thousandth time in my meager existence, that this supermodel angel was real. Not just that, that the news of what happened last night ain’t just some happy dream I’d had. Of all the times I’d imagined it, waken up to it, the reality yet of it couldn’t yet compare to any of those fantasies. It was like my girl herself. Greater, more gorgeous, kind, loving, unfathomably beautiful and talented and smart and unique than anyone anybody could have ever even thought of. All these tabloid girls, insipid celebrity Heroes poppin’ up left and right? Ain’t even hold a candle to her. Ain’t even in the same sphere or domain. N’ now she was pregnant. I held all four hands out before me before taking the food into our room. I was shaking. I couldn’t believe it. I was just so thrilled to be with her.

I had hella fears too. Like, what if the Covenini ain’t actually done with me, with us? It was a paranoia I just ain’t able to shake, no matter the few years that went by. What if I was a bad dad. What if I was just as bad as my old man, if not worse. What if I ain’t honor her, let her down like I knew I would -

Every single thought dropped from my mind when I opened the door. Saw her rubbing her eye, sunshine pooling all around her as if her very essence refracted the light. She was just so beautiful. Her words were fresh against my ear, that accent like a lullaby to my soul ringing all the clearer. Like I ain’t hear her somehow for weeks, months. My heart thudded in my chest. I grinned, crazy big, brain trippin’ over her words. “Just a lil somethin’ for my favorite girl in the whole world,” I whispered, carefully setting down the trays of food in front of her before kissing her deep. And my favorite kids.

Ya gonna join us?

Us.

Happy lil bells went off in my head, sweet as the wedding ones, different pitch.

“Y-yeah Zāzā!!” I settled in next to her, latching onto her with a four-armed hug before nuzzling my face into her neck. Stands of her gorgeous locks spooled up by my face, a warm laugh humming in my chest. “Us. Nowhere else I’d rather be.” My heart was so full. Whenever I peeled off her, I’d clear my throat awkwardly. Like it was the first date all over again. Hella everything had changed, yet I was still at home with the most amazing soulmate and wife in all the world. “You sleep good, baby? I got more in the kitchen too if we’re still hungry!! Hella more!” I chuckled, trying to bite back a smile and utterly failing. “We gotta lot to talk about, huh baby?”

''A little somethin'?'' She grinned, ''Chuchu, ya made so much..'' She closed her eyes and leaned into his kiss, letting her fingers playfully dance up his arms to his shoulders. ''Next time Ah'll help.'' She stretched her arms up over her head, a big yawn sneaking up on her in the process. He was good at pampering her it was unreal. Some couples might feel that their partner steps up to pamper and look after them once one of them got pregnant, but Chuck had been an absolute pro since the day she apologized to him at the Disney store. She still remembered how giddy she felt, that first week waiting for their very first date, how she laid in bed at night and the happy thoughts just came to her out of nowhere. Her feelings for him were hella strong back then, completely lovestruck like the romantic fool that she was. It made it all the more impressive when it didn't hold a candle to how much she loved him now. Love growing stronger day by day. For them, for the family.

She giggled when he got into bed, fully aware of what she was doing by saying us!! It was both to tease him, but also hella the truth. They were going to be parents and it's not like the lil ones were just going to be on standby now. They were going to be a very real part of their lives soon and she figured it was better that they got used to it sooner rather than later. ''Ah feel the same way.'' Her love overflowed, practically spilling from her heart and into her smile as she wrapped herself around him. Who needed breakfast when she had the most handsome, gorgeous hubby join her in bed? She wasn't an expert on the being pregnant part yet, but it wasn't like if she had naughty thoughts the kids could read them too? She hella hoped that wasn't the case!! ''How long have ya been up?'' She traced a few soft kisses down his jawline to his neck, her fingers trailing all the way down his arm to grab one of his hands as they peeled away from each other. ''Ah slept like a dream.'' She smiled, lifting his hand up to kiss the back of it. ''..Ya slept okay, right? If ya have night terrors just wake me up.'' She looked a bit concerned, but she hoped that wasn't the case. Willed all the baddest nightmares away with the power of love alone. ''Ya do?!'' Her eyes lit up, ''Ah'm starvin', Ah eat so much more now it's almost scary.'' She chuckled, immediately digging in by taking a handful of chopped fruits. ''Yeah.'' She bit down on a piece of apple, ''Hella.'' Where should they even start? Was there a how to be a parent manual? It's not like either of them had many positive experiences to draw on with their own parents...

''Ah don't know where ta start.'' She admitted with an embarrassed chuckle, she felt so blessed that was comfortable enough to admit that to him. That she could be open in his company and talk about anything and everything. ''Look!'' She beamed, holding up a piece of fruit. ''This one's heart-shaped!'' She held it up to his lips. ''Take a bite, Chuchu.~''
