Faster (Xmen Fanfiction)

Chapter 29

"Pax! Kace!" You shouted, they ran out of their room and up to you.

"Yes mommy?" Pax said looking up at you with wide eyes.

"Are you ready to go see daddy?"

They gave you wide smiles and jumped up and down. "Yes! Daddy daddy daddy!" They shouted almost simultaneously.

You smiled down at them,"Alright, go put your shoes on and we can go."

They nodded and ran back into their room.

You walked down the hall back to your bedroom to grab your bag.

"We're done mommy!" Kace shouted.

You walked back out into the hall and saw them excitedly jumping around.

It was always like this when you went to go see Pietro.

"Alright you two. Let's go. Remember to hold hands okay?" You opened the door and let them go first before you.

You locked the door behind you and shut it.

"Pax. Help your brother in his seat then get in yours okay?"

"Okay mommy." He said in a sweet voice.

You walked over to the house next door and knocked.

"Hi Liliana." The dark skinned lady greeted.

"Hey Abby. Um. You didn't happen to see anything out of the ordinary last night did you?"

She thought for a second and shook her head,"No. Why?"

You gave a fake smile and a shrug,"Just thought I heard something. Sorry to bother you."

She smiled genuinely,"You aren't bothering me. You have every right to be worried." She paused,"You guys off to see Pietro?"

You nodded,"It's been two weeks. The kids have been too busy with school and stuff."

"I hope you guys have fun, tell him I said hi."

You gave another nod,"Yeah definitely. See ya." You waved and walked back to the car.

Once you got in you looked back to make sure the kids were properly strapped in.
"You boys ready?"

"Yes." They answered with large smiles and you pulled off.

20 minutes later you were pulling up to Charles' mansion.

You parked the car and the boys got out and you walked to the door.

You rung the bell and patiently waited for the door to open.

"Uncle beast!" The boys shouted as the door opened.

You rolled your eyes, you insisted they call him uncle Hank but they wouldn't have it.

Hank bent down and scooped them up in his arms. "Hey kiddos!" He hugged them and looked at you,"Hey Liliana."

"Hey Hank." You smiled and he stepped to the side and let you in.

He placed the kids down and gave you an apologetic look.

You sighed,"Let me guess. Pietro isn't here."
He shook his head."Sorry. He should be back soon though."

You rolled your eyes,"Thanks. Is Erik around?"

"Yeah, he's out back."

You walked through the kitchen to the backyard to find Erik.

"Hey you," you greeted as you approached.

He looked up from his solo chess game and smiled at you.
