I swallowed. “Here?”
She let out a real laugh, the sound music to my systems. “Well, I’m pretty sure my Luxury Models don’t want to see that, so how about we wait until we are home?”
Something shoved me from behind.
“You can bond later.” Core’s eyes flashed as he pulled Nara from my arms, enveloping her in hug.
Chaos and Caliber raced to join him, throwing their arms around her, the three of them holding on tight.
Pulling back, they stood, frames pressing together. “When they took you, it hurt so much,” Core pointed at his chest, “here.”
Caliber touched his forehead. “And in here.”
Chaos blinked, his eyes filling. “What if they had taken you from us for forever?”
Nara shook her head. “Never. I will always find a way back to you.”
“And to Brone,” the three of them said in unison.
Chaos and Caliber looked at me. “Don’t worry. We like him.”
Core grinned. “We have decided you can keep him.”
My brow lifted. “When was not keeping me on the table?”
The four of them laughed and something heavy broke free from my chest.
Nara shrugged. “We are a package deal. You good with that, Tank Class?”
I wrapped one arm around her and the other around as much of the Luxury Model trio as I could. “More than good. I get what I have longed for. My very own family.”
Caliber’s forehead furrowed. “Do we call him dad now?”
Nara
I watched as Brone’s eyes widened at Caliber’s question. I really should put my Tank Class out of his misery, but I was enjoying this. There were a few moments when I laid in the dark, trapped in that apartment, worrying I would never have this again.
That I would never get to bond with Brone or hug my Luxury Models. Standing here watching Caliber’s confused face, and Brone looking to me for help, was priceless. I had forever to have moments just like this.
And I couldn’t wait.
“I think, Caliber, that you should ask Brone what he would like.”
Brone smiled at my boys. “You can call me that if you wish. Whatever makes you happy. That goes for all three of you.”
Chaos grinned. “Okay, daddy.”
Brone flinched. “Anything but that.”
The Luxury Models laughed.
Caliber’s cheeks darkened. “I think I like dad.”
Core smiled. “Friend.”
“Family,” Chaos declared.
I reached up and kissed his cheek. “Ours.”
