Fearless

Q's POV.

God damn what did I just get myself into?! No, I'll be fine... how hard can a kid be? Wait I see joe and bessy struggle to keep up with both of their kids, let alone the newest baby! Oh no. I don't think I'm ready for this.

I held her hand all the way to my house. The drive wasn't long. About 10 minutes (with out traffic) I want to say. We stopped to get gas so that added a nice few minutes to talk.

"So, how terrible is a kid?" I ask her. I was only half joking. She took it as full joking and laughed.

"Oh come on, it will be fun! Just need you to get used to changing a diaper, feeding her, and getting her to bed that's all!" She says. Yeah sounds easy but I know it will be 1000 times more difficult then that. I mean these little alien creature things need 24/7 attention and care. It's crazy! I was having anxiety all the way home about this kid I'm not involved with yet.

"Oh okay. Doesn't sound too bad." I tell her. I don't want to tell her what I'm really thinking.

"It's won't be if there are 2 people, not just me." She says. Yeah I guess that's true. I give her a smile and rub her hand. We were pulling into my drive way when she asked a very important question.

"So uh, Brian... ha.. um... what are we exactly?" She asks. Oh boy. I don't think I can even answer that question.

Mad's POV

It took him a bit to answer my question. Lot longer then I wanted. I was getting scared that he didn't want to be anything I mean, he said a lot to me.

"How about... friends with benefits?" He says. I laughed at first because I thought he was joking. But no, he gave me a look that concluded he wasn't.

"You aren't serious right?" I ask him. He looked around before turning off his car.

"I mean think about it, we can do anything we want with each other in our own privacy, no one has to know we are dating, not the public, or the job, or the whatever. Just us, hanging around, fucking around with each other. But there is feeling behind it. But this is only til I'm used to your kid. THEN, I'll totally ask you out for real. The proper way." He finished.

I agreed to this. It wasn't that weird after all. We have already done a lot together so it wasn't going to be much different.

We walked up to his apartment and i waited for him to unlock his door. He dropped his keys once and then couldn't find the right key.

"This happens a lot doesn't it?" I ask him with a grin. He looked over with a. Straight face.

"Yep." And he continued with the door.

"You know, you should really label those keys." I tell him. He finally unlocks the door and opens it for me inviting me in.

"You know, I would. But, what if someone stole my keys and knows where I live? Then they would have access to anything. My apartment, my car, work, the garage space down stairs. Too much to risk. I'd rather struggle." He says fast. I smile at him. He's funny. Immediately as we walk in we are greeted by 3 furry screaming faces.

"Babies!! Hello honeys! How are you babies? Did you miss your daddy? Did you???" He got on the ground and laid on the floor petting everyone and letting them have their turns. I squatted down to pet the kittens with Q. he was really a crazy cat lady.

"those pictures  you send me of them don't do them justice. they are so much better in person." i said. he smiles and sits up.

"yeah i was hoping if i sent you enough you would have to come over and see them for yourself." he said getting up and helping me up as well.
