Rampage

~7~

With Charlie gone, Antonio finally could relax like how he wanted too, the stress of his secret lifting off his shoulders and a new feeling he couldn’t describe replacing it.

“Antonio,” Gasper sat down beside him with a towel in hand, “you're sweating Toni.” He wiped away some of the sweat and kissed Antonio’s cheek.

“I don’t think he minded me being a male.” Gasper cuddled into his arms, “he seemed excited to meet me also.” He was also very relaxed, the scent of Antonio calming him down more than it should have for being an unmarked couple.

“I didn’t think he’ll take it so well, and I also don’t know if he knows you're a guy.” He hugged him, “but I'm sure my dad wouldn’t mind, he’s a very open minded man.” He was in fact more open minded than Antonio was and he was from an older generation that thought so much differently from present day generations.

“Well we’ll have to make sure he really knows.” Gasper squeaked, surprised by Antonio pulling him into his lap.

“Hungry?” He leaned back, his neck being revealed to Gasper, “I know you haven’t had proper feeding for a while now.” He felt a guilty, he wasn’t really coordinated at times and got busy with multiple things leaving others to suffer while he worked at times.

“A little, but I’m in no hurry.” Gasper blushed, Antonio always smelt amazing to him, Issei too but that was because Vampires were attracted to dragon blood to begin with, but Antonio always smelt sweet but tasted tangy, he loved it.

“Go ahead, Gasper, I don’t mind.” He pushed his head closer to his neck, already getting a little tired but that's because of the long day he had.

“If you insist.” Gasper blushed, he wasn’t going to turn him down, it would be like a nice sweet drink for him after eating such a big meal.

“Wow, right in the open? You two have no shame.” Akeno walked in, a teasing smile on her face as she settled down on the other side of Antonio, rubbing the back of Gasper’s head as he drank from Antonio.

“Oh hush you did worse.” Antonio chuckled, flinching a little when Gasper dung his fangs a little deeper than he should have.

“But never in a room where anybody could just walk in.” She playfully swatted at him, she meant no harm but just had so much fun teasing the people she loved so much.

“But what’s the next move?” She asked curiously, of course they still had the Stray locked up in a room, unconscious, but he hadn't given them any instructions about them.

“I’m sure you and Rias can handle it?” It wasn’t a question, he knew two people would be overkill, and Akeno could handle herself, but sometimes she could get a little too happy and kill the Stray before they can get any proper information.

"Why of course," Akeno giggled, "tomorrow?" She already knew what must be done, but it didn't hurt to ask.

"Tomorrow." Antonio nodded, "Rias being my Queen will be accompanying me to the reservation tomorrow for the discussion about territory." He scoffed, he hadn't had a chance to sit down ever since he got to Forks, but it'll be best to get everything situated before the baby comes.

"So what shall the others do while we're away?" Rias questioned, everyone was sitting ducks at the moment.

"Job wise?" Antonio thought for a moment.

"Kiba can work at the Hospital if he likes, there's a church for Asia, Xenovia, and Irina." He could only think of jobs for them, but he was sure Asia would commit to the housewife role, and would rather just visit the church from time to time.

"Koneko and Gasper would keep the territory safe, and Issei can join them for practice." He shrugged, they'll probably not get a job.

"I need you and Akeno to keep an eye on Bella though." He gave a look to Akeno who rolled her eyes.

"She's that bad?" Rias lifted a brow, already not liking the girl from Akeno's reaction.

"No, no she's just problematic." Akeno shrugged, the girl couldn't listen and that irritated her.

"Girls," Antonio signed, "try and get alone for my sake." As much as he agreed with Akeno, Bella is still his sister even if she has a weird brother's complex.

"Okay." Rias nodded, after all she had difficulty before.

"But let's head to bed for now, it's late and we have a meeting in the morning." He wanted the meeting to be tonight, but he understood that two of them couldn't make the decision for everyone, especially Sam.

He groaned, he'll have to deal with all of them, and the thing is, he'll have to meet everyone.

"What?" Rias frowned, "what's wrong?"

"Change of plans," Antonio groaned, "everyone will be going tomorrow and make sure you talk to Issei about watching his mouth." As much as the boy was free to speak his mind, he didn't want to waste time healing Issei because he couldn't watch his mouth.

"I'll talk to him." Koneko walked past, she probably finished her part in the kitchen.

"Okay." That worked also for him, "now let's all get to bed." He was serious this time, he was sure that Rossweisse was annoyed with how long he's taking and he was very much worried about bringing her around unknown danger and that lit a fire into his heart.

"Yes, let's I'm quite tired." Akeno nodded, a little disappointed she couldn't spend the night with Antonio but she knew Rossweisse and the baby came first.

"Next time I want to get pregnant!" She demanded, it was a shock that Rossweisse got pregnant, before Rias because that's who Antonio was trying with, but things don't always go as planned.

"Me also." Rias giggled, "I'm supposed to be pregnant also." She was joking, she was in no hurry to be pregnant but she wouldn't lie that she wasn't jealous of the attention and extra care Rossweisse was getting from an overprotective Antonio.

"Trust me ladies, everyone will get what they want, when we calm things down around here." He was also joking, but the heads that popped through the doorway, with huge smiles decorating their faces, made him feel a little uneasy.

"We'll keep you up to that promise." Gasper smiled, he couldn't get pregnant but that didn't mean Antonio and him couldn't adopt a baby.

"Gasper, we'll have a baby." He meant to that, whether it was possible or not.

"Oh," Gasper blushed and vanished from where he was previously standing.

"Antonio!" Asia gasped, a blush on her face also as she ran over to smack him on the arm.

"What?" He huffed, "what should I say?"
