Andy's POV
When we got home, Ro stumbled into bed with me, after pulling on a long T-shirt and short shorts. What felt like 30 seconds later, Miranda came flying onto the bed.
"Mom! Dad! It's time to get up! I wanna train!" She exclaimed, screaming in delight.
"Miranda, go get breakfast." Ro groaned, her voice muffled from the pillow. Miranda ran downstairs, still squealing. I wasn't going to get to sleep.
"Ro, get up. We have to go make sure the kids don't get murdered." I sighed, shaking her arm. She got up, grumbling the whole time about the importance of birth control or condoms. We walked downstairs, and I saw the whole family sitting down. Mikey was wearing an apron, and apparently he and his wife had made pancakes, eggs, sausage, bacon, French toast, and crepes for everyone. I was starving, despite having eaten 2 hours ago. I sank down into a chair, Ro next to me. We held hands under the table. I piled pancakes onto my plate, and slathered them in syrup. Ro reached for the plate of French toast, and Felina gasped.
"Rogue! What's that?!" She exclaimed, pointing to the ring.
"Andy asked me to marry him! We're engaged!" She squealed. Everyone broke out in cheers, and words of congrats. I quietly ate my pancakes while we were bombarded with questions.
"When's the wedding?"
"Are we coming?"
"Who's going to marry you?"
"Are you moving away?"
"Are Miranda and Sam going to be in it?" I helped her answer some of the questions.
"Probably this summer, around June."
"We want Master Splinter to marry us, because he married our parents."
"We'll stay here in the lair with everybody else."
"Of course Miranda and Sam are going to be in it." We had also forgotten a very important part of the wedding.
"What's a wedding?" Miranda asked. Everybody got quiet, and Ro turned to look at me.
"A wedding is a special celebration that people have when they love each other very much." I said slowly.
"That means I can marry you!" She squealed happily.
"No, Miranda, it's like this. Two adults who love each other will marry each other, and then have kids. You can't marry a person in your family." Sam explained. I felt Rogue tense up beside me; how did we explain this to our kids? That we were cousins, but not really cousins? That they were unplanned?
"We'll talk about this later Sam, Miranda." I said.
"But-"
"No buts." I cut off Miranda's protest. We resumed eating, but it was quieter, more awkward. How were we going to explain this to our kids?

Rogue's POV
After we finished eating, I helped Felina clean up the dishes.
"So, are you gonna let me help you pick out a dress?" She asked quietly.
"Of course Felina, I'm just...thinking." I said, distracted.
"Thinking about the kids?" She asked.
"Yes! How do I explain that to them? Do I even explain it at all?" I asked exasperatedly.
"Do what you feel is right." Felina said, drying the last dish. I helped her put the dishes away, and then she scampered off. I got dressed for the day- leggings, and the same long T-shirt I tried to sleep in. A few minutes later, my mom, Felina, Andy's mom, Lindsey, and Felina's kid were standing in front of me.
"Hi?" I said, confused.
"Get up loser, we're going shopping." Felina joked. I jumped up, and joined them. I don't think I've ever been this happy to go shopping.
Mom drove us to this little wedding boutique in downtown NYC. It was called 'Dresses and Weddings'. Not very original, if you ask me. However, Mom knew the manager (I don't know how) and hooked me up with several dresses at once. While in the dressing room, I immediately discarded the fluffy dresses, the weird dresses, and the too tight dresses. That left me with 3 to try on. The first one had a low cut front, but fit my form very nicely, hugging my chest and hips, and flowing out. I stepped out, and twirled, letting everyone see it.
"Ew." Lindsey said, popping a bubble.
"Um, it's ok." Felina said.
"I don't like the cut." Mom said disapprovingly.
"I just want a dress that will make your inner beauty shine. I don't think you want your kids to see you looking trashy." Andy's mom said. She had a point-I did look too trashy in it. I tried on the second one. It had lace all over it, settled nicely on my hips, but just looked weird. I hesitantly stepped out and was greeted by "no's" from everybody. I tried on the third dress, and fell in love with it. It was a sweetheart fit line, but the bodice ended right below my chest. The rest of the dress flowed softly down my body, allowing my figure to be seen, but not hugging me. It was perfect.
"Mom, I want this one!" I said, stepping out. There was a pause of silence, and then:
"Wow! That's definitely the one!" Felina cried.
"You look gorgeous! I love that on you!" Andy's mom said.
"Hey, good pick Rogue!" Lindsey exclaimed.
"Aw...my little baby all grown up. You look amazing, Rogue." Mom breathed softly, wiping a tear away. She paid for the dress, and Andy's mom paid for my shoes, to which I protested to. I have money, I can buy things for myself. Felina and Lindsey picked out matching lavender bridesmaid dresses, and Mom and Andy's mom picked out lavender dresses as well. I picked out a lavender bow tie for Andy to wear, smiling.
When we got home, Mom hid the dresses, and I gave Andy his bowtie.
"I want our wedding to be June 1rst." He said, taking it from me.
"From noon to two." I added.
"On a beach in the Carribean." He said, laughing.
"I'm sure we can talk Donnie into it." I said.
"And we can have our honeymoon in the Caribbean while everyone else goes home!" He said seductively.
"Shut up Andy!" I laughed, shoving him away from me. He wiggled his eyebrows at me, smirking.
"You know you want to." He said, coming back over to me. His breath grazed my ear.
"Can you handle me?" I asked.
"I think I should be the one asking that question." He said.
"I've handled you pretty well. Multiple times." I whispered.
"Not this time. I'll have you begging on your knees for me." He promised.
"Are you sure I'll be the one begging? I seem to remember multiple incidents where I was on my knees, and you were the one begging." I reminded him.
"As much as I love you two together, I don't want to hear about how you were begging for each other while you had sex." Lindsey said bluntly, walking in. Andy turned fire engine red, and I opened my mouth in surprise, turning scarlet as well.
"Aw, they're embarrassed!" Lindsey teased us, walking out. Andy looked at me.
"I'll still have you begging for me." He said.
"I heard that young man!" Andy's mom said, walking in the room.
"Mom! I-I didn't, it's not what you think!" He exclaimed.
"Uh huh." She said, walking out.
"By the time I'm done with you, you won't be able to sit down for two weeks." He said.
"ANDY!" Dad roared from the kitchen.
"You should shut up before anyone else hears you." I suggested, laughing.
"Nah, I'll be fine. Besides, I'll be the one shutting you up!" He chuckled.
"What's that mean?" Miranda asked, plopping down on the two of us.
"Are you serious? Just...wow!" He exclaimed. Miranda and I started laughing.
