"My name is Ava..." Ava mumbled, Arthur grinning at them as the other twin avoided to look at me.

"My name is Isabella." Isabella tried saying confidently, but I heard the tremble in her voice.

"Nice to meet you two. I know this may be very sudden and such, but I am Arthur Louie Martin. Your-."

"Tu es ton père, nous savons ..." ( You're your dad, we know... ) Ava interrupted, Arthur cocking his head at the little attitude she was having.

I sure noticed it and I know I'm not one to talk because I give attitude to my parents. But this is Arthur we're talking about and he's too easy and kind.

"Je suis désolé pour la réponse tardive ... Je ne savais pas ... Je ne sais même pas si je devrais dire ça. Mais je ne savais pas que vous existiez tous les deux jusqu'à il y a environ un mois." ( I am sorry for the late response...I did not know...I don't even know if I should say this. But I didn't know you two existed until about a month ago. ) He confessed hesitantly, a frown coming upon their faces.

That's when he looked at me and looked like he was having a panic attack.

"William I'm scared here." He cried, glancing at them as they still looked lost about his words.

"Just explain the situation to them-."

"I can't, not yet at least. Their mother said she wants to wait until I brought them to the United States."

"They need passports. You already have a green card from me since we're married. I don't know if it applies to children as well..." I question, thinking about it some more." We need to look into it when we go home."

Arthur nods, facing the two of them as they avoided making eye contact. I mean, I guess it makes sense. A random guy shows up claiming you're his father and they seem to know already.

"Are you two together?" Isabella asked, and I nod first as I fold my arms.

"Yes, we are. That a problem?" I ask, and she smiles and shakes her head.

"No way! I never knew any men that dated a man... It cool." Ava murmured, smiling and I saw Arthur smile too.

"That is good. Because when you guys come home with us we'll be the two you two will come to when in need. We have your back, especially me. You're my daughters after all." He suddenly reached forward and grabbed each one of their hands. Squeezing them softly and grinning." I want to make up for the years I've missed. Ready to make memories with the love of my heart and now the two new loves of my life?"

I blush and see them blushing too, but theirs were more embarrassment than anything.

"How can you love us when you barely know us?" Isabella asked quietly, Arthur smiling as he glanced at me.

"Didn't you hear me say it's time to make new memories? It'll build from there, trust me," He promised, smiling as they smiled too," So, are you ready and do you trust me?"

It was silent for a hot minute, but the smiles on their faces and the vigorous nods of their heads said a whole different story.

The three of them stood as they hugged, leaving me just sitting here as I smile awkwardly. Not wanting to invade on their family thing.

"William, get up here, mon amour." ( my love ) He squealed almost, making me smile as I stood and joined on the hug fest. All of us hugging and I wondered what it'd be like if we really were to raise these two...

I still have to go to college...

Well, whatever the future hands us, I guess.

Am I ready to start the journey with Arthur, the best man I've ever met in my life...?

Hell yeah!

"Since that is settled, I believe some packing is in order for America!" Arthur exclaimed excitedly, the two nodding as they rushed off. Leaving him and I as we watched them disappear from around the corner.

"I think we'll be great dads." I say suddenly, Arthur smirking down at me. His arm wrapping around my waist and just simply giving me a hug.

"Don't say we will be great, we are already great! I bet this will be easy! Besides what could go-."

"Don't jinx us you son of a bitch." I hiss playfully, making him chuckle and shrug lightheartedly." But your optimism is contagious."

"That even better! We'll be the best, no doubt. What could possibly go wrong?"

I glare at him, making him give me a cute thumbs-up.

"You jinxed us."

"That good?"

I sigh, making him kiss me and hug me again.

"I kid, I kid! I am just so happy you accept. This will be fun, you not regret." He murmured." Besides, this just adds to when I was eighteen and met you and now here we are. Remember when I said ' Je peux être gay quand je veux être' ?" ( I can be gay when I want to be )

I blush, remembering that incident and trying not to get excited since there was kids in the house.

"Yeah, I remember. I think that's how you won me over."

"Me too. I mean, come on!" He pulled away from me, cocking his head and I waited for whatever he was going to say." I liked eating berries instead of popcorn when watching a movie, I loved cheese, I had cute broke English, not to mention to top it all off...you were there too. To piss me off and make me happy. Now here we are mon amour."

I smile, making me realize it's been three years...interesting three years that's for sure.

"Someone's sappy."

"No, just happy." He sung, spinning me around as he hugged me tight." To think my first words to you were 'Name is Arthur Louie Martin and from France. Hello.'" He recited in a thick French accent.

"My first words were...not the best." I say quietly, making him snort as he ruffled my hair like a dog.

"Hope you know I didn't really know half the things you were saying so I didn't take offense. Just judged by reactions and the way you said it... It was always mean-."

"I know, I'm horrible."

"No. You're William Moretti Martin! That's who I fell in love with. Nothing you do will make me fall out of love with you."

I smile; I will always wonder how I got so lucky with him. Never have I ever met someone who gave so many chances. It doesn't even seem real sometimes.

"I know. I love you just as much as you love me-."

"Impossible!" He cried, leaning towards me to kiss me until I heard a woman clear her throat. Looking to see the woman from before.

Her face red probably from us flirting and Arthur frowned at her presence.

"Yes?"

"Did you talk to...?"

"Yes I did. They're excited to come with us. I know I am!" Arthur rubbed his hands together excitedly, walking towards the woman as he grabbed her hands and nodded at them." I want to say Merci Beaucoup. I am sorry for not being there, I hope you can forgive me." He apologized, seeing her nod and smile.

"You're still the gentleman I remember..." She mumbled, looking at me from the side of her eye and at him." Arthur...are you sure you're happy?"

"Yes I am! Why would you ask such question?"

She went silent, but I didn't need her to speak to tell me why she was being salty. She's just jealous that he's happy with me and she probably wanted the two of them to build a life together.

"Arthur." I call, him looking at me and I gesture for him to come here. When he gets to standing beside me, the woman was giving me her resting bitch face.

"Yes?"

"I want you to go help them out more, your kids." I say to him, and he nods ecstatically and rushes off. Leaving her and me together all alone.

"Je suis confus à propos de vous deux. Jamais je n'ai jamais vu une personne avoir une domination complète sur une personne, mais alors cette personne a une domination complète sur votre cœur." ( I'm confused about you two. Never have I ever seen one person have complete domination over a person but then that person has complete domination over your heart. ) She hissed, and I fold my arms.

"Je ne sais pas d'où tu viens, mais tu ne peux pas nous séparer." ( I don't know where you came from, but you can't break us apart. ) I remind smugly, making her laugh and shake her head.

"Quand ai-je jamais dit que je voulais vous séparer? Mais j'espère que vous savez, ce sont ces deux-là qu'il aime le plus. Ça va être tout pour toi. Habituez-vous à ne pas avoir tout son amour jeté sur vous." ( When did I ever say I wanted to break you two apart? But hope you know, it's those two he loves more. It's just going to be all about you. Get used to not having all his love thrown onto you. ) She sneered, smiling as anyone could've saw and known that I loved his attention...

Is it true about a father's attention will only be on his child? Because my parents weren't like that, they had work and a business to run. I wouldn't know so I can't say I understand.

We'll see. I bet it isn't as bad as she's making it out to be. It'll be fine in the long run, I know it...

Time to start a new life...

Am I ready? Who knows.
