A NEW POGUE

Peter started to whine, but Callie rolled in her bed, way too large for a single person. She tried to ignore him but it degenerated in very loud screams, so she checked the time on her phone and sighed, tired.

5 am.

She got up, walked to his room and smiled at his cute face. He was so beautiful, even when he was crying. "Hi my beautiful baby," She picked him up and he stopped crying as fast as she held him.

"Were you grouchy because you missed mama?" she kissed him softly and hugged him against her chest.

She walked to the bathroom, changed his diaper and dressed him up. "You're so handsome my love," she whispered.

He left out soft giggles, so she kissed his cheeks even more. Then she walked to the kitchen, grabbed the formula and made him a bottle.

"Why did you have to wake up so early? Mommy had plans for today with her friends, now she's gonna be very tired," she yawned as she said it and sat on the sofa to give him his bottle.

She honestly enjoyed having her 6 months old baby with her. He was everything she loved, and her entire world. He wasn't so hard to manage, even though sometimes she needed a break, and by then, Cooper and JJ were very useful.

"Are you excited to see all your uncles and aunties?" she kissed his head and hugged him as he finished eating. She knew he loved the Pogues because he had been around him since the day he was born.

"But it's too early for now, they're probably sleeping, because they don't have a baby to wake them up"

She spent the whole morning playing with her baby or holding him to sleep when it was nap time. The amount of love she had for this little baby was still unreal to her.

"Hey, look who do we have here," Sarah spoke as she immediately took Peter from  Callie's arms and kissed him a thousand times.

"I'm sorry, but we still don't get how you've had a baby looking this cute. I mean you're not so bad but-"

"JJ!" Callie laughed as she threw him his lighter she had in her pocket. "By the way you forgot this in my bedroom"

They were all gathered on the dock, ready for a little Pogue day. And it was the first time ever Peter would get in a boat. "Wow he looks excited," Pope said as they all got in the HMS Pogue.

"So excited he woke me up at 5 am," Callie added laughing.

John B started the engine of the boat as Sarah and Kiara kept playing with Peter, sitting down and Callie gave everyone a beer.

"Salute," they all cheered and drank.

They stopped the boat somewhere in the marsh so John B and Pope started fishing. Callie enjoyed not having a small alien in her arms for a few hours, and laid down, closing her eyes.

"Wait, this baby needs sunscreen," JJ spoke as he grabbed the sunscreen and took Peter from Sarah's hands.

"Was it just an excuse to hold him? He's literally as white as snow because Callie already put some on him!" Sarah argued gently.

"Yes, maybe it was an excuse," JJ spoke as he put his cap on Peter's head and kissed him. Callie laughed as the cap fell on his eyes and JJ removed it.

"Do you want to swim?" JJ asked to Peter as the baby giggled. "I'll take it as a yes, come on"

"No! JJ what are you doing? he's a baby," Callie argued, walking to him. "You're not taking him in the water"

"Chill! I'll hold him the whole time, he needs to discover the Pogue life, if he's really one"

Callie rolled her eyes, giving up. Maybe he was right, it couldn't be dangerous if JJ was holding him. "Okay but let me go with you, just in case"

JJ took his clothes off and gave Peter to Callie before diving in the water. "Uncle JJ is crazy, right?" Callie attacked Peter with kisses as she took his baby clothes off.

"Alright, give him to me," JJ held out his arms and she carefully gave him her baby.

"Don't drop him JJ, be careful, please"

"Callie chill! Who do you think I am?" he argued back as he swam with the baby in his arms and Peter giggled to the contact of the water.

Callie dived in the water and joined JJ who was still holding Peter. How cute this scene was. She had never ever in her wildest dreams imagined JJ going crazy over a baby like this.

Peter laughed and kicked his tiny legs in the water which splashed JJ. "Good job my love," Callie joked.

"Hey stop buddy you're splashing water in my eyes," JJ laughed and held Peter above the water so he couldn't splash him no more.

Peter started to whine so Callie rolled her eyes smiling and grabbed him. She held him tight against her, still in the water. "Uncle JJ is mean, come on, mommy is nicer," Peter stopped crying and she swam a little bit with him.

"Ready to get your face underwater? 1, 2 and 3," Callie plunged Peter under water and immediately resurfaced him kissing him all over. "Brave boy"

"He's a Pogue," Pope laughed, watching the scene from the boat. "That's our first Pogue baby"

Callie nodded as she got back on the boat and wrapped him carefully in a towel so he wouldn't catch cold. Maybe she was being too protective because it was so hot outside they all knew he wouldn't be sick. She sat down and placed him on her lap with his pacifier in his mouth.

"Do you guys plan on having one?" Callie asked out of nowhere, to her friends.  Of course especially to Sarah and John B, or to Pope and Kiara, who had been dating for a while now.

"What? a child?" Kiara laughed "I'd rather die than have a mini Pope"

"Same, a mini John B would be, terrible to manage," Sarah complained smiling.

Callie rolled eyes and looked at her baby smiling. "Guys, I got myself a mini Rafe Cameron, I think you can handle a Pope and a John B"

"Yeah, and, to be really honest," JJ started saying as he made his way back on the boat "I love Peter more than his father"

"It makes sense, he's a Pogue"

"He's our new Pogue," John B spoke, as they all looked at him and he giggled.

Indeed, Callie had the feeling he'd be a real Pogue.
