The Wolf and The Beast

Mutants and Telling Hank

Today, Emily tells Hank that she is pregnant. However something grabs Hank and Emily's attention about the baby. Is the baby ok? Stay tuned. 

The next morning was when I had to tell him. I sighed and got up. I am not upset about it. I am worried on how he will react. I peek in the kitchen and saw Hank and Charles talking. I ran back to my room and picked up the box. I went to the kitchen and pretended that the box came for Hank. Hank looked at it confusingly and started to open it as I made some eggs and toast with jam. I went to the table and watched as he picked up the knitted socks and painting. He took a minute to realize I was pregnant. He came up to me and looked at me and Charles. I nodded, "Hank...?" His lips grew to a smile. "I am going to be a daddy?" I nodded and smiled. Charles spoke up, "She did an ultrasound. I noticed that she was. This baby...feels strong." We looked up at him and back and hugged each other. "I have someone that can come see her and check her progress. I am looking forward to seeing an extra member." He left as I started cleaning up. Hank came up behind me and rubbed my belly. His breath against my neck. He kissed my neck as he wrapped his arms around my waist. "A family. Amazing." I turned facing him, "Are we going to be able to fit our family...here once the students come?" He thought for a moment. "I am not sure. I can design a home. To be built next door to the mansion, To stay close and teach and have our family." I smiled and agreed. We went to his lab and started creating. Things were happening fast but I am so happy. Hank stopped for a minute, "Emily, I wanted to ask you something. Now that it is the best to ask. Especially now...." He moved to the glass cabinet and picked up a box. "Here open this..." I slowly picked it up. Wondering what is inside. I opened it and a blue diamond ring was inside. "Hank..." I faced him and he was on his knees, with his hands on my hands. "Emily, my beautiful creature. I want to spend my life with you. I want to keep being your beast. Be your husband and the father..." He placed one hand on my stomach and my tears formed and he continued, "of this child. I love you and I want us to be a family. For as long as we live." I bursted in tears, "Yes Hank, I will marry. I want to be a McCoy. I want to be your wife, the mother of our baby and your wolf. I love you." I put the ring on and it fit perfectly. I hugged him tightly as he got up. I shifted to a wolf and he changed to a beast and I buried my face in his fur. We walked to Charles study and I shifted back to a human. "Charles, we wanted to ask you something." He looked up and put everything down and saw the ring. "Congratulations my dear and to you Hank. Now what is it that you wanted to ask." We moved forward, closer to his desk. "Well...we were a little worried about staying here. Students coming in soon for the semester and will there be room for us. So we wanted to ask if we could maybe build a house next door. Still come help teach and have our privacy because of the baby." He was putting his fingers on his chin. He looked back up and smiled, "That is a...splendid idea." I went around and hugged him. "Thank you...so much. Please give me away, Charles." I felt him choke a sob. "Of course I will." Hank stepped in, "We already started designing the house." Charles nodded and we returned on creating our dream house. I giggled as we thought about what we wanted inside. "I want a big kitchen so I can bake as much as I want." He laughed and put it down. A two story. I think too many rooms...maybe five with four bathrooms. I wagged my tail with excitement, "You want anything to drink? I am going to make some hot cocoa." I bit my lip as he nodded and kissed my cheek, "You keep biting your lip I am going to have to go beast on you, sweetheart." I smirked and walked away. I made some cocoa and walked to the kitchen and he wasn’t in the room. I looked around, "Hank?" I saw him coming out of the room with tools and tripped over papers. "Oh my god! Hank! Are you ok??" I ran up to him and helped him up. He rubbed his head, "Yes. I am fine. Mmm. I smell something good." He picked up his stuff and placed it on the metal table and sipped some cocoa. He was so intent on doing this for our family. I glanced at my ring. I really loved him and soon it will be all of us. I stared up in space thinking about it. "Emily? What are we going to name the baby?" I thought, "You name the boy and I name the girl." I thought and so did he. "I know..." He shot up in glee and continued, "Name him Marcus Charles McCoy. After Charles because he was always there for us." We both smiled, "For the girl I was thinking, Melissa Alexia McCoy. Not bad hmmm?" He nodded and pulled me in front of him and held me close. It was almost noon and thought about going swimming. A break. "Hey Hank? Do you want to go swimming?" He smiled and put his pencil down. "Of course I will. It is a good day out anyway." He went to the room and I went to mine and put my swimsuit on. My black bikini. I went to the mirror and saw a slight bump. I smiled and walked out and saw Hank in a black and blue swim trunks. He flexed and we both laughed. We grabbed towels and ran to the pool. I jumped in, cold but nice. "It is sooo nice." He jumped in and came up as a beast. "You lied!" And tackled me in hugs and kisses. I wrapped my arms around him and put my head on his chest. "A family, Hank. It is so amazing." He looked down at me, "I know." I stated swimming around and tanning as well. Charles came out and saw us. "So how was the design going?" We looked up at him, "It is going good. We finished the designs and now we just need to start building." Charles nodded, "I see. Well I will be helping you both get your home done and get that nursery set up." We smiled and got out and took a shower. We came out and I started cooking dinner. Hank and Charles came in, "I called a company to come in tomorrow and start. Emily, I want you to come with me tomorrow while Hank is with the company. I found a few students we can bring in. To start on and progress from there." I finished and gave them their plates. "Ok. Just give me the directions and I will get you there. After dinner I will set up the rooms for them. How many are there?" Charles looked up, chewing a piece of meat. "Three. Two girls and a boy. One of the girls can create different various of storms. The other is like me and telekinetic. The boy, he had power in his eyes. Like Alex from his body but this one is from the eyes. I think these two are related somehow. Not sure exactly. Alex is like the older brother, but I don’t want to assume." "Ok. That is fine. Do you have everything you need? For tomorrow, when you talk to the parents?" Charles nodded. I finished my plate and started washing, Hank had finished and started helping me. Charles gave me his plate. He tried the best he could to help clean but we all managed to finish on time. "Hank, you and I need to work on more about the house. Emily, you can start by doing the rooms. Please, do not do too much because of the baby." I smiled and looked at them, "Ok. I won't. If you boys need anything. Just let me know." They nodded and headed off. I went up stairs near my room and picked the three rooms around Hank and I's room. We started sharing. My old room is going to be one of the girls and the others will be next to each other. I started cleaning the rooms. Dusting and tidying up. I put sheets on all the beds and used neutral colors. I fixed up the bathrooms and clean everything. I started feeling dizzy so I finished up and went to the living room and sat on the couch. I rubbed my stomach and laid there in silence. I woke up. Was I sleeping. I was laying down on the couch and sat up. I got up and looked at the time. It was midnight. It felt like only an hour. I shuffled my way to my room and saw Hank laying there reading a book. He looked up, "What happened?" I shook my head, "I...I don’t know. I was cleaning up and I felt tired so I finished up. I laid on the couch relaxing. I just passed out. I am still tired but at least I finished." I got in the bed and laid my head on Hank's stomach. He rubbed my head and got more comfortable. He held me close as we started to fall asleep.
