Kids Change Everything

Jessica

At the Simm's manor a screeching cry could be heard throughout the whole house.

"Yes I know Brookie, I know this is no fun but you have to be quiet for Uncle Tyler." Tyler cries out as he changes the diaper to his beautiful, yet distress Cousin. Brooklyn only cries louder. He finishes the diaper and picks her up lightly bouncing her up and down.

"Ok now sweetie. You're all done. It's time to stop crying." He tries to soother her as best as he could. He was getting desperate. He didn't know what to do. He didn't know why she was crying and nothing was working. He was on the brink of tears.

"Wow someone is not a happy camper." Reid says as he pops his head through the door. Tyler looks at him and sighs.

"No no definitely not. I don't know what to do. She won't stop crying." He whines. Reid opens the door wider and Tyler sees Robbie come running in.

"Hi Uncle Tyler." Robbie greets then tries to climb his way on top of Tyler's bed but failing.

"Hi buddy," Tyler greets back but not nearly sounding as happy. He continues to try and quiet down Brooklyn. Reid walks to his side.

"What's a matter Baby girl?" He asked in his best baby voice but it only made Brooklyn sob louder.

"Thanks Reid. Now I'm deaf." He says. Reid rolls his eyes and sticks out his hands. "Come. Give her to Uncle Reid." Reid tells him. Tyler was so desperate he didn't fight to disagree but just handed his best friend the crying baby.

Reid cuddles her into his shoulder and rubs his hand up and down her back softly. He sits down next to Robbie who finally got settled in Tyler's bed.

"Why is Bookie crying?" Robbie asked as he watched Reid lay Brooklyn on his legs gently bouncing his legs up and down.

"She is just having a bad day buddy." Reid answered. He looked over and saw Tyler collapse in a chair on the side of the room, Clearly exhausted. He looked over at Robbie who was looking contently at Brooklyn. Then Robbie suddenly brushed his hand down Brooklyn cheek, telling her it's ok.

Then something unexpected happen. Brooklyn's cries died down. Tyler's eyes snapped open when he heard the noise stop and saw Reid staring amazingly at Robbie who was still comforting Brooklyn, who had miraculously stop crying. Reid looked back at Tyler with a smile.

"I told you. They're meant to be." He exclaimed and laugh. Tyler shook his head. Did that really just happen? He asked himself before closing his eyes in exhaustion.

A couple hours in the day Pogue and Caleb came over and they decided to just crash in the kitchen. Who would have thought that by their senior year all four of them would become fathers. Especially Reid. While Pogue had to admit. He knew Reid would become a Father with how he slept around but he never thought he would take the responsibility.

"Where you able to find the sex of the twins yet?" Tyler asks before taking a sip of his soda. Everyone can tell he is exhausted. He has bags under his eyes, he yawns all the time and you can hear the tirednesss in his voice. Not only does he deal with school and all the assholes in it, he deals with swim practice, and then has to drive deep in Ipswich to come home and take care of Brooklyn everyday, not to mention trying to keep up in his studies.

"No she is still to early." Pogue answers. He is still a little weary of becoming a father but he loved Kate and he wasn't going to let her down. He wasn't going to let his kids down.

"What do you want it to be?" Reid asks. Robbie was sleeping upstairs in Tyler's bed with Brooklyn sleeping in the crib. Robbie has been sleeping with Reid every night since he was dropped off almost 3 weeks ago. They still haven't gotten the results out yet but Reid already knew the answer. There was no doubt Robbie was his son. Luckily Nate, who was staying with them, was able to watch Robbie when he wasn't there. Also his parents never came home yet, They would have probably made Reid send Robbie back. He made it sound like Robbie was a animal but Reid knew better. This wasn't some animal Reid picked up off the street or a kid he found abandon. This was his son.
