Chapter 26: Chapter 26

Dimitri groaned as he felt Rosalie get up out of the bed, he opened his eyes to see it was still dark out. The sound of their son crying reached his ears, he immediately got up and wrapped his arms around her waist.

"What do you think you're doing?" He whispered.

She chuckled, "Getting out son, silly. He's crying and-

"And I told you I would take care of him when he's crying."

She frowned and looked at him, even in the dark she could tell he was tired. More tired than her.

"You've already been up three times tonight though." She argued.

He raised an eyebrow, "I thought you wanted me to start helping?"

"Yes, but that doesn't mean deprive yourself of sleep." She mumbled into his chest as he hugged her.

"For the past few nights you've been doing it by yourself. It's my turn. Now, go back to sleep." He whispered, kissing her on the head.

Rosalie sighed in defeat and crawled back into bed, Dimitri made sure she was sleeping before he left. He walked into Elijah's room and smiled.

"Shhhh." He cooed as he picked his son up.

The baby cried for a little while longer until he looked up at his father. Dimitri placed a gentle kiss on his forehead.

"Not used to seeing me get you, huh?" He chuckled.

The baby made a sound, Dimitri only continued to smile. He tilted his head.

"No fair, you have your mother's nose. Traitor." He pouted.

Rosalie chuckled as she walked in, "Yes, but he has your name and all your other features. Well, his skin color is like mine."

Dimitri chuckled, "I thought I told you to sleep?"

"Well, watching the adorable scene of a father and son is better." She smiled.

She sighed and kissed him on the lips, "You know I love you, right?"

He nodded, "Of course and I love you too."

Once the baby was sleeping again they crawled into their bed and cuddled against each other. Rosalie smiled as Dimitri wrapped his arms around her and pulled her close.

Rosalie got up at six and sneaked out of the room when her son started crying. She sat down in the rocking chair and nursed him, whispering nothing but love at him.

The next day Rosalie woke up to an empty bed. She sighed as she got up and did her normal morning routine. She frowned when Dimitri walked in looking extremely tired.

"You should take a nap. What time is it anyway?" She asked.

He yawned, "One in the afternoon, you slept for a while."

"Oh...where's Elijah?"

"My mom and Catherine have him, I'm pretty sure he's hungry though."

"I would assume so."

Rosalie walked downstairs to see her son crying as Harper searched the fridge.

"Dimitri, is she still breastfeeding him?"

Rosalie chuckled, "I am."

Harper stood up and smiled, she walked over and handed him to her.

"So, heard you and my son got into a small fight?" She questioned.

Rosalie sighed as she sat down and began feeding her son. "Yeah, it was over something completely stupid."

"Well, that's Demetrius for you. Always starting arguments over the smallest of things. Christine knew that and would constantly try to piss him off. I hate that mutt." Harper growled.

"We all do, Dimitri was the one who killed her."

"Good. He's in love with you, more so than he was with Christine. I'm glad he finally found you." She stated with a smile.

Rosalie smiled back, "I was lucky to find him."

"Oh, some guy by the name of Cyrus called. Rambling about finding a boyfriend."

Rosalie gaped at her, "He's gay?"

"Uh...I guess so...I don't really know him so..."

"I'm honestly not surprised, I could tell."

Rosalie looked up to see Damon walking in, a grumpy Rachel followed after him.

"Why are you angry?" Rosalie asked.

Rachel glared at Damon, "This idiot thought he didn't need a condom! Now I'm pregnant!"

"Hey, I thought you were on birth control." Damon retorted.

Rachel scowled at him, "Correction, I was on birth control."

"So...you don't want to be pregnant?" Rosalie asked.

"No, it's not that...I'm just not ready...what if I screw up?" She whispered.

Harper immediately hugged the girl, "You have us here to help you, besides, she had a baby with my other dumbass of a son. Surely, you'll do good with raising a child with dumbass number two."

Damon scowled at him mother before looking at Rosalie, "So, Cyrus is gay now?"

"Whoa, what? When did this happen?" Rachel asked.

Rosalie shrugged, "Apparently while traveling. He's either gay or bi."

"Well, I'm not surprised. He did have a little bit of a wondering eye for men, come to think of it." Rosalie said thoughtfully.

Rachel shrugged, "His boyfriend better be nice or I'm ripping his balls off. Hopefully he's smart too. Dealing with numbnuts over here and Alpha Idiot is enough torture."

"Don't forget the king of nit wits." Harper chuckled.

"Who?"

"Xavier."

"I heard that!" A voice called from the family room.

"You were supposed to!" Harper yelled back.

"So, when is Cyrus returning with his boyfriend? I want to meet him!" Catherine sounded.

"Whoa, Cyrus is gay?" Dimitri asked as he ran down the stairs.

Rosalie watched as he almost fell on his face, "Oh, yeah, definitely dumbass number one."

Dimitri stuck his tongue out at her before folding his arms across his chest.

"So, who fell for Cyrus now?" He asked.

"Well, you'll find out this evening. They'll be here by seven." Harper said as she walked out.

Rosalie sighed, "Looks like we're meeting Cyrus' boyfriend now."

"If his boyfriend is some huge scary ass man I'm running away." Damon stated.

"He could be a thin human guy and you'd still run." Rachel smirked.

"Would not."

"Damon, you screamed over a dust bunny and sprinted out of the room."

"Fuck you..." He grumbled.

"Can't, I'm pregnant now!"

"This again?"

"Yes! I told you to put a damn condom on! Don't you know how sex works?"

"Yes, I know how it works!"

"Well, clearly you only know about the dick going into the vagina part. I'll dumb it down, sperm meets egg, egg turns into baby."

"Well...should have taken a morning after pill." He grumbled.

Rachel rolled her eyes, "I would have if you hadn't bought Viagra by accident!"

"Stop the shouting or I'll make sure he doesn't have any balls!" Rosalie barked.

Both grumbled something before leaving the kitchen, Rosalie sighed as they continued arguing all the way to the room.

"Cyrus and his boyfriend better now argue like that or I'm gonna cut a bitch." Rosalie grumbled.

Dimitri laughed at her.

Rosalie sighed as she walked downstairs, everyone was actually excited to meet Cyrus' new boyfriend. He had called back an hour ago, when Rosalie answered she couldn't hold her excitement back. The whole pack was excited to see him again, the two weeks that he stayed with them he had helped immensely. And seeing how tired Dimitri was, Rosalie knew they were going to need the extra help.

Cyrus had told her all about his new boyfriend, except his name. He is a werewolf, he's a lone wolf but he does have alpha blood in him. He had laughed when Rosalie told him about Damon saying he would run from him if he's a scary looking man.

"He's...uh...tall and muscular like any other wolf with alpha blood, but he isn't scary." he had told her.

Now, it was almost seven and they were hanging out in the family room. It wasn't the whole pack, but it was Harper, Maddox, Dimitri, her, Damon, Rachel, Xavier, Xander, Felicity, Sage, Sara, the baby, and Diamond. Dimitri wrapped his arm around her and kissed her on the temple, telling her how much he loves her. She smiled and leaned into his embrace, enjoying the warmth.

"We're back!" Cyrus cheered as he burst through the front door.

Rosalie shrieked and pulled him into a hug, a man with dark hair and brown eyes laughed from behind them. Dimitri shook his head at his mate, Rosalie finally let go and glanced at the other man. She narrowed her eyes and walked up to him, he had a slightly fearful look as she inspected him.

"Well, welcome!" she beamed, hugging him.

Cyrus laughed, "You'll get used to it, she's strange."

"Hey! I am not strange." Rosalie argued.

Dimitri and Cyrus glanced at each other before looking at her, she sighed in defeat. "Okay, I'm a little strange..."

"Anyways, Rosalie, this is my boyfriend, Alec. Alec, this is my original mate, Rosalie." Cyrus introduced, his voice shaking a bit.

Alec smiled at her, "It's nice to meet you, Rose...is it alright if I call you that?"

"Of course!" she grinned.

Xavier smirked, "She likes being called Rosie better."

Rosalie growled and slapped him on the back of the head, "Do you want my foot up your ass?" she threatened.

Xavier paled before taking a step back, "Nevermind."

Alec laughed, "How the hell did you leave her?"

Cyrus scratched the back of his neck, "We actually agreed on breaking up. She was in love with him and I don't know. I just lost interest in girls. Well, I did still have feelings for her." he admitted

"But now they're replaced with his feelings for you! So, now getting all jealous." Rosalie teased.

"Oh, don't worry, I trust him. Ah, you must be...Alpha Black?" Alec asked.

Dimitri nodded, "You can just call me Dimitri."

"I've heard all those scary stories of you."

"Eh, I'm not as cruel anymore."

Rosalie scoffed, "He's lying."

"What? I am not-

"Let me remind you about how you completely lost it on a rogue and tortured him."

"Okay, nevermind." Dimitri mumbled.

"He won't kill you." Rosalie smirked.

Alec chuckled before introducing himself to everyone else, once he reached Harper she pulled him into a hug. "Welcome! You look like a large muscular and cuddly teddy bear!"

Alec glanced at everyone else, his eyes begging for help as Harper strangled him with her hugs. Maddox laughed and pulled her off, he then pulled her against his chest and kissed her on the lips. Dimitri and his brothers all fake gagged and told them to get a room. Maddox only smirked at them and made sure to make-out with her for a whole minute.

After Alec and Cyrus were settled in their room they joined everyone for lunch. Cyrus explained to them that he had met Alec in Paris after accidentally running him over with a car. Alec laughed nervously, telling them he almost killed Cyrus after that.

"Ah, the beginning of every romantic story." Harper sighed dramatically.

Sage scrunched up her nose, "If my mate hit me with a car I'd throw him into a lake and repeatedly drown him."

Everyone just stared at her in shock, the room becoming silent. Sage looked at them with confusion, "What?"

"Since when did you get such a murderous mind?" Catherine asked.

Sara rolled her eyes, "This girl has always been like this, she thought killing someone because they're annoying is a perfect excuse for committing a murder."

"I can see it now, and our next serial killer is....Sage Black!" Damon announced.

Sage scowled at her uncle, "I'm going to stab you in the eyes with this fork."

"Whoa, calm down there killer!"

"Damon, if you make one more pun I swear to-

"Well, she's the one killing the mood!" Damon shrieked, cutting Dimitri off.

"I'm going to kill you one of these days." Dimitri grumbled.

"Well, now we know where Sage gets it from." Xavier sighed.

They all started to eat peacefully, sometimes having a nice conversation. Sage finished her lunch first and sighed, she then smirked. Without any warning, she let out the biggest burp, scaring everyone.

Dimitri scowled at her, but she only shrugged. "I dare you guys to try and do better." she grinned.

Dimitri raised an eyebrow, it only took him a second to burp even louder. Alec smiled at them both and let out the largest burp, larger than their's. Sage pouted while Dimitri high fived him, Rosalie smiled at the scene.

She then grabbed Dimitri by his ear, "No burping at the table." she growled.

He pouted at her, "You're no fun."

"You weren't saying that in the bed the other night." she sighed with a smirk.

"Oh, come on! It's bad enough I heard you two going at it that one night!" Sara whined.

Sage laughed, "Look at you! Getting it on like donkey kong!"

Dimitri's eyes widened, "You are getting your mouth duct taped."

Sage folded her arms across her chest, "Not if I rip it off."

"Fine, then you'll simply lose your eyebrows."

"You wouldn't."

"Try me."

Sage stuck her tongue out at her father before focusing on annoying her sister. Rosalie laughed at them, she then smiled at everyone. She sighed, everything finally seemed to be working out.
