September 3, 2038

It was nearly 5am and the only child awake was Amelio.

He's been waiting for this day for a while; it's their 18th birthday. He was really one of the only ones that was excited since their mothers are taking them out for drinks later.

Most of his siblings treat it like just another day, minus his twin and Leon.

To keep himself busy, he decided to get a head start on breakfast.

He gets out of bed, slips on a green tank top and his monster slippers before going to their spacious kitchen.

He goes straight to the speaker to play his music then really got into a steady flow.

While he mixed up some dough for blueberry muffins, he hears soft pattering coming up behind him. He turns around to see Paris, their 4 year old niece. "Good mornin', bug," he greets with a smile while cleaning up a little as he continued cooking.

"Mornin', Uncle Lio," she says in a groggy voice before letting off a big yawn. He bends down some so she could kiss his cheek and she does so.

"Well, breakfast will be done after the muffins finish, so go wake up everybody," he says.

The little girl then ran back upstairs where most of the family resided.

She first went to the twins' room, who were both sprawled out; sleeping like their birth mother after having them.

Paris jumps on Prince's bed since he was closest and starts jumping. "Uncle Princey, wake up. Uncle Lio made food!" She continues to jump.

Instead of Prince waking up, Leon lifts his head with squinted eyes. "P, shush, it's too early for this," he grumbles before turning his head towards the wall. "If you don't get up, I'm gonna scream," she warns, just as a deeper voice says, "You better not wake up your grans."

It was Josh standing in the doorway wearing just basketball shorts and mitch-match socks. "Daddy!" Paris practically jumps off the bed and into her father's arms. He picks her up and hugs her, "Good morning, cookie."

She hugs his neck and buries her face in the crook of it.

"Yeah, but get up, lads. Lio's making a feast," the young father says to his brothers before leaving their room. "Oh, and happy birthday."

"Happy birthday," Prince says, half asleep.

When Josh's mothers found out he had gotten a girl pregnant so young, they were far from happy. In fact, after separate mixed-up lectures, they embarrassed him by putting condoms everywhere he'd be.

But once Paris Ines Nelson-Pinnock was born, they went from picking with him to helping him out.

The house was actually filled with kids.

Lia's daughter, Alani was staying with them while her mother played professional football, sporting her mum's number. Then it's one year old baby Rue, the newest Pinnock child.

It's crazy to think that their parents, who are in their late-40s can still have kids. Another crazy thing is that the women are more mistaken as their sisters rather than their parents.
