Tom had never been happy with a woman before. Christina was the first person he'd ever even liked. So, he was doing his best to make sure he didn't mess what they had up. He was a little concerned about their age difference, but it seemed as though it really didn't bother her. And they'd been together a couple of months. So.

He'd decided it was time to bring her home to his own house. He took a deep breath and turned the key to his place. "I even cleaned it up a bit."

Christina looked at Merlin, frowning at her in the corner, and laughed softly. "I think he realizes it sucks now," she said, leaning against Tom and closing her eyes for a moment. "God, all this baby making."

Lavinia was sleeping, so Christina moved over in the bed a bit, patting the empty space beside her. "Merlin, come here," she said. "I want to tell you about me and Uncle Evan."

	Merlin watched her for a moment, then turned over in his chair and slid off it on his stomach. He toddled a bit, then slowly walked across the room, only to be scooped up by his father. Tom put Merlin on the bed beside his mother. "He's still a bit rough with that walking business." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Christina smiled Merlin. "He's getting much better, though," she said. "I'm sorry we had to leave your party to come get your sister, sweetheart, but your uncle and I have the same birthday too."

Christina held Merlin as close as she could when everything was still sore and sensitive from pushing out a baby. "He's my best friend, so I like sharing things with him, and I think you're going to be a great big brother for Lavinia. She even got you a birthday present because she loves you so much." She looked up at Tom. "Would you get Lavinia's present to Merlin from my bag, love?" At least it had occurred to her to push the stuffed puppy into her bag as they were rushing to the hospital.

	Tom nodded and reached over, grabbing the puppy from Christina's bag. He held it out to the baby and watched as he snatched it from his Dad's hand. Merlin held it closer and squeezed it in his arms, thenr reached up and put it in Lavina's face. "Ruff. Ruff!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Christina laughed at that, leaning down and kissing Merlin's forehead. "I'm sure Lavinia is going to be thrilled that you like the puppy you got for her, Merlin. You and Daddy will have to go out and buy her a birthday present together soon." She leaned down and kissed hie forehead. "Happy birthday, baby." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Merlin was three years old. Lavinia was two. And because he was older, he had to help her out and teach her how to be smart. He was making her sit on the couch and she looked very grumpy about it. He was just thankful she wasn't great at talking yet.

He glanced at his uncle Evan when he brought in a blond baby and frowned. "No!" He said. "Not another. How old is he?"

"Almost two." Evan grinned down at Merlin. "This is Lucius's son Draco."

Merlin shook his head. "Too many babies. We don't need another baby!"

Christina came into the room behind Evan, laughing at Merlin and touching her rounded stomach. "Lucius and Evan thought you and Lala might like to play with Draco, since he doesn't have his brother yet."

Lavinia was not happy about Merlin and his stupid ideas about what she should be doing, but she was also pretty sure she agreed with him about the baby. She agreed with him about most things. "No baby," she said, crossing her arms over her chest and shaking her head.

Draco did not really like being away from his mother, even if Papa Evan was the next best thing to having her. When he heard Merlin and Lavinia saying they didn't need him, he started to tear up, holding on tighter to Evan and whining a little, because that usually got him his way with his mother.

	Merlin looked up at Draco when he started crying. He frowned at him for a moment, then sighed. "Stop crying!" He demanded, then pointed at the floor beside Lavinia. "Put him there." He walked back over to his book. "I'll teach him about apples too." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Draco reached up and wiped his eyes, giving his papa a pleading look. He didn't need to be left with these people. He could go back home and be with his mother. Everything would be just fine. Lavinia sighed. She did not like Merlin's lessons. They were always so long and involved. "No apples," she said, and looked up at their mother for help. "Mummy, no apples."

	Merlin frowned at Lavinia for a moment, then took Draco's hand and walked him over to the couch. He looked at him for a moment, then helped him up on the couch and pressed close to him. "We'll just cuddle." Merlin informed him, closing his eyes. "My sister is mean." (Reply to this)(Parent)
