Tarlos: We're A Family, All Four Of Us

Part 19

Louise and Harper were at school when dad and baby were released from the hospital. Carlos swore to take excellent care of them, starting with saying going to the 126 isn't the best idea so soon after the birth when they should really be at home. But TK and the 126 said otherwise, they were all on shift and TK wanted them to meet Wesley sooner rather than later, he didn't like the idea of keeping his baby a secret and away from it's family. He knew the 126's opinion from the get go. Owen was invited to meet Wesley in the hospital not long after the girls before the birth announcement was made to the 126.

Nervously Owen tapped on the door to the seemingly sterile room that also held so much life. Carlos was holding Wesley while TK was eating, he had since changed out of the gown into the insanely comfortable cheap sweat set he had repurchased after Louise's birth. "Knock knock," he smiled at the boys, "Hey, so I brought Paul's chilli and the well wishes of the 126," "Man of my heart," Carlos smirked leaning into the containers to smell the chilli, "How are you doing kiddo?" Owen asked sitting down next to TK, "Hanging in there, tired and sore obviously," TK spoke as if it was something to be ashamed of. Owen sighed running his fingers through TK's hair, "Of course you're tired and sore you gave birth less than a day ago," he laughed hugging TK, "Carlos you're input please," "Nah don't want to ruin the moment," he explained rocking Wesley. "Dad do you want to meet your grandson?" TK asked, "Carlos surrender my newest grand-baby," Owen ordered, "He kinda looks like me," he joked but quickly corrected himself, "But of course he looks like you Carlos with TK's eyes and hopefully not his temperament," that earned offence, "Is it too late to change the birth certificate," TK announced, "Owen mind your manners," "Carlos come on no back up?" "He literally has the 'I birthed your child' card now not a chance. Babe just tell him," "Yes what's the little guys name," "Wesley Gabriel Owen Strand-Reyes," TK smiled.

Walking through the open shutters to the engine Carlos noticed an instant change in TK for the better, Wesley was in his pushchair wrapped up warm to the chill in the air and the team were arguing over something trivial, "Wow I guess you don't want to meet the new baby then," they quickly changed there tune seeing TK and Carlos with a pushchair in front of them, Carlos was understandably protective but it was nice to see them. "No of course we want to meet the baby," Marjan announced, "Just one at a time guys," TK asked nicely pulling down the cover, Marjan happily picked Wesley up sitting with him supported in her lap, "The famous baby, does baby have a name other than mini Carlos?" Judd asked, "Wesley," Carlos smiled with his arms around TK's shoulders, TK pressed there foreheads together before sitting down next to Marjan. Wesley was barely awake and it showed, he wanted TK though, "Do you want your daddy?" Marjan asked and Wesley quietly cried in agreement, "Okay, come here baby," TK smiled taking him back, Mateo was pulling faces at the baby, "I don't see anything of you in him TK," Judd smirked to which TK rolled his eyes snuggling his baby.
