"Are you sure your going to be okay?" Keith asked as rosy was sleeping in the back of the car after her day of running around at the park. They where parked outside Keith's apartment for a little as Keith grabbed his bag but paused before getting out as he looked at Lance slightly worried.

"Yea it'll be fine," Lance smiled waving it off. Keith looked at him but didn't believe him. Though he said nothing as it wouldn't probably upset Lance more of what goes on behind the door.

"Just... just take care of yourself too lance, you don't always have to be the hero," Keith sighed closing his eyes.

"If I'm not, who are these guys going to look up too besides their parents," lance chuckled softly. Keith glared at him a little but reached up and pressed his lips to lances cheek softly.

"I'm not saying don't take care of your family, I'm saying don't forget to make sure you take care of yourself once in a while," Keith brushes his black hair behind his ear blushing softly and got out of the car.

Lances eyes where wide as his heart thudded against his chest quickly as he felt like he couldn't breathe. He looked away quickly before Keith looked back to see him staring and covered his face.

"Is keith your hero then?" Rosy smiled ass she sat up and hung over the drivers seat, scaring lance.

"Have you been awake the whole time?!" Lance cried out with wide eyes and a red face.

"Does abuela know you kissed Keef?" rosy giggled at her uncle.

"Don't you dare tell abuela, we date, she doesn't need to know more," Lance took a deep breath.

"Tio Lance?" Rosy asked innocently.

"Yes princesa?" Lance smiled at her.

"You are my hero," she smiled happily and Lance smiled back softly and let her crawled to the front seat.

"Let's go home," he smiled and rosy buckled up, happy to be in the big kid seat.

Lance walked through the door as he held it open holding his nieces hand inside.

"Hi mama!" Rosy waved as Jess was reading with the book rested against her swollen belly but looked up seeing her youngest.

"Where have you been?! Lance you can't just text me saying 'take the day off' and later have your mom gets a call saying your skipping!" Jess gasped standing up as she had rosy hug her waist.

"John was drunk the s'morning, with you being due any day I don't think you need the stress, I took her to the park for the day," lance smiled softly as rosy reached up for him and he picked her up.

"He hasn't been home all day, I saw him leaving, Maria will be back soon and Marco is on his way home with Leo," she sighed crossing her arms.

"Lance you didn't get Allura pregnant did you?" Jess asked taking rosy from him and let her run off as she looked at lance seriously.

"Jess... I can't get girls pregnant, mom is the only one that knows," Lance took her hands gently.

She wrapped her arms around him as her stomach forced space between them but Lance smiled hugging her back gently.

"Guess it won't matter then if you marry Keith," Jess chuckled softly and Lance laughed.

"Ew Keith? He has cooties," lance teased back.

"Yea all boys do," Jess pushed him away.

"Speaking of boys, how's baby Diego?" Lance touched Jess's stomach that held his next nephew.

"Well, baby Diego is baby Dayanara actually," Jess smiled softly and Lance looked at her wide eyes.

"No way! You are almost popping, how did they miss it for a boy and not a girl?!" Lance laughed hysterically.

"Guessing it was a hand instead, I had a different doctor today when I went to check on the baby out of paranoia," Jess shrugged.

"Dayanara... I'm having another niece!" Lance squealed hugging her tightly.

"Yep, no niece is safe from their uncle Lance it seems, though," Jess snorted.

"I'm telling Marco when he gets home, wanna take Leo inside so I can talk to him?" Jess rubbed his arms gently and lance nodded.

"Your such a great mother Jess, Leo is so fucked with two sisters though," lance whispered winking.

"Also... Lance... we're um, we're moving out," Jess sighed and lance paused for a moment.

"We found a house a few blocks down so we'll still be in town but... the house is getting crowded, and with John back we don't know how safe it is... it was amazing living here with Maria watching Rosy and Leo when we worked, but Rosy is going into kindergarten so... and with the baby, it's going to be a full house," she explained and lance nodded.

"I understand Jess, you got your own family now, Marco and you both are allowed to not just be under moms roof, just remember with me being a senior, I'm always a call away for anything, I'll watch the kids, let you and Marco get some time alone," lance smiled gently.

"I know, god your to good for this fucking family," Jess reaches up and touched the small cut on his lip frowning. "What happened to that goofy kid?"

"I got to be a goofy uncle instead," lance chuckled and they both heard a car door open and close as Marco was home.

"Mom mom I got to see dad's work!" Leo raced in as Marco smiled shaking his head at his son.

"I can't wait to hear about it, can you tell uncle Lance first while I talk to your dad for a minute?" Jess looked at her oldest smiling and Marco kissed her forehead.

"Everything okay?" Marco asked.

"I went to the doctor, come on it's important," Jess told him and grabbed his hand to bring him back outside.

Lance stood by the window with a smile as Leo peaked out as well curiously. They saw Jess take both of Marcos hands and placed them over her tummy. She spoke to him and told him the news. Marco covered her mouth walking back for a little but asked her if she was serious. Jess nodded. Marco laughed and kissed her deeply with a small spin. They where going to have another daughter.
