Chapter Forty Nine - Coitus Interruptus - Almost (Yeah, You Read That Correctly)

We need another baby.
Austin blinked and almost choked on his slice of cake.

It had literally only been seconds after Hannah's transition, they're busy tucking into the birthday cake and Shannon drops that clanger onto him.

Yeah, sure. Same place?
No, somewhere different.
Any ideas?
How about the treehouse? That's how we got William.

I'm not really sure to be honest, I can't keep track of where they WooHoo nowadays and which method is proving the most successful in getting her pregnant. So I'll just go along with the flow for now.

Lets wait until we've finshed our cake shall we?

HUNGRY!

Oh hang on, Hannah's hungry. Shall I feed her on the floor or put her in the high chair
Up to you baby.
High chair it is.

 So, Shannon plonks Hannah in the high chair and is just about to serve her some food when Austin accosts her.

Shall we get busy?
HUNGRY!!!!

There's still .....
smoooaches
HUNGREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!
... oh never mind, lets head for the treehouse.

By now, Hannah is frustrated to hell. She's hungry, tired, and she wants attention...
.... NOW!!

There was a cute pic of Hannah, but Boney decided to photo bomb the pic and spoil it.
Thanks Boney.

No pics of Austin and Shannon getting busy in the treehouse. When you've seen it once, you've seen it too many times and it gets a bit boring after a while.

It was Blaine to the rescue instead. Although I am a little concerned about Blaine dripping oil into the baby food like that. I'm not sure if that's a healthy thing really.

And then it was cuddle/snuggle time.

Funny little thing isn't she?
Yes Blaine, she is.

Chapter Thirty Nine - Napping In The Snow is Just Asking For Trouble

I think William is Hydrophobic - giving me ideas for his next trait here!!!
Well, you judge for yourself as Shannon decides to clean him up after he pooped himself.
Things were going well, until she popped him into the bath.

 

And he screamed the place down!!!!

In the meantime, these odd 'on call' shifts are taking their toll on Austin. Twice did he collapse with sheer exhaustion.

Once outside of his workplace.

The next time, literally yards away from his own front door!!!

You'd better be careful Austin, you'll freeze if you are not careful. Napping in the snow is just asking for trouble.

Oh by the way, love the outfit. What are you today?
Dunno, but these leather pants are a bit breezy though!!

Think of it this way Austin, not long to go to your Lifetime Wish, and then all my attention is focused on your son.
Does that mean I lose all my control? I won't be able to think for myself?
I never said that.
But isn't that what the rules state?
Once again, I didn't state that.

Here's Shannon showing Austin the 'proper' way to use the water slide ... in Winter.

O-kay.

Oh by the way, loving your instant dry clothing, wouldn't that be great in real life?
Plus, she rolled a wish to make a snow angel!

I think she's forgetting that she's a mother now.
Somehow I don't think she's got the mothering instinct in her.

This baby sucks the life out of me, I want the old times back. I want some fun!

Oh Shannon.

Speaking of Shannon. Even though she's having difficulty in dealing with motherhood, she's rolled another wish to have a baby. So her hormones are going into overdrive as she accosts Austin, quite forcefully, almost knocking him off his feet!!

And right in front of William no less!!!

Hey there my sexy man! Give us a kiss.
Uh Shannon? You okay?

Just want to ravish the love of my life!
Uh, o-kay, but take it easy now, I'm kinda easy to break ..... WHOA!!!!

Have you no decency guys? Get a room .... puhlease, before you scar your son for life!!!!

Yeah, that's the spirit!!!

Sooo, whilst Shannon is sleeping off her exhaustion, Austin is taking a quick nap before taking his turn feeding and fussing over William.

Altogether now ..... AWWWWWWW
If you look close enough, you can just make out his sparkles, which means when he grows up, so will his fairy wings!!!

Uh, Austin?
Yeah?
What's ... going on?
Had this sudden urge to repair the shower.

*faints*

You mean you actually WISHED for this?
Yes.
O.M.G. Even Bonehilda is shocked!! (she was actually waiting for him to move so she could mop the floor, but this sounded even better!!!)

See, um, it's like this ..... I broke it whilst taking a shower, I didn't want the missus to know, so I thought I'd better fix it!
Ah, that explains things.

Speaking of Bonehilda, she's taken a shine to William. Standing creepily over him, staring down as he screams his lungs out. And getting Shannon annoyed at the same time!!!

Once again, I hope this child isn't going to be scarred for life here.

Grumble grumble grumble, stupid dirty laundry, guess I'd better do it myself since there's nobody else wanting to help out.

Something wrong Shannon?
This place SUCKS, nobody cleans up after themselves. Why is it always left to me?
Because.... you WISHED for it. Nobody else did, so I have to fulfil that wish.

Sweetie? Is something wrong?
Very perceptive Austin.
Nothing.
Why don't you sit down with me, have some dinner and we'll discuss it. Yes?

It's a very uncomfortable mealtime indeed, but it spurred Austin on to do something drastic that he hopes would put a smile back on his wife's face once more.

Yeah, oh and no clowns okay?

What IS he planning I wonder?

Chapter Thirty Five - SCORE!!!

Whoa, nice car Austin!

 
Meh, that's just the car pool. Now if I had another driveway ...
You don't have enough money.
.... how do you know what I'm saying?
I saw one of your Mid Life Crisis wishes. You wanted an expensive car.
Did I?
Yup.
Was it fulfilled or locked?
Nope, neither.
Dayum. Anyways, what do you mean, I've got no money.
I didn't say that. I said you don't have enough.
Ah right. Why?
Well..... remember those days when Shannon was bugging you for WooHoo?

Ah yes, I remember. Couldn't keep her hands off me.
*smiles*
She's been a bit busy lately.
Oh?
Oh so you didn't notice the newly revamped kitchen?

Um.
And surely you'd have noticed the spare room has been redecorated ..... into a nursery.....
Has it?
Oh yes, and Bonehilda is gone. Got rid of her at the first opportunity.
And it is about time too, she was annoying.

Oh yes, you were the first person to try out the rocking chair we installed in there.
I did?

*roll eyes*
Do I need to spell it out for you?
Spell what?

Shannon is pregnant!!
*stunned silence*
*waits*
*waits some more*

SCORE!!!!! Yep those little swimmers are from good stock baby!!!!

You might need to keep an eye on her though.
Why's that?
I'm not sure drinking whilst pregnant is a good idea.

Oh I'm sure she'll be fine.

So there you have it. FINALLY. The second generation is on its way!! And about time too, I was getting seriously worried. And yes, I got rid of Boney. She was far too much aggravation and her 'house' was taking up too much space.

Chapter Twenty Nine - What ..... Just ..... Happened?

WHOA!!!! BURGLAR!!!!
Hang on hang on, it's only me.
Austin?

Yep.
What are you doing dressed up in a burglar outfit?
Infiltrating the warehouse to get more evidence in on a case.
Ah right.
Strictly hush hush, don't want to give them any sneaky peeks just in case they get rid of the evidence.
Ah right.

FINALLY!!!! 50,000 lifetime reward points accumulated. Which means I've got BIIIIG plans for Austin. 

WOOP WOOP!
I really don't know why Austin started acting all silly like there, but it looked good ROFL


First things first.

Step One .... Invite Shannon around.

Ohh I can handle that, she's always good company.

Yeah .... riiiiight.
*dials phone* Shannon? Wanna pop around?
Sure, I'll be there in a minute.

Hi Shannon. I want to see a ghost.
That's nice, love your home by the way.
Thanks, it's not bad really. Better than that other place.

 Step Two, raise the passion levels a little

Give us a snog.
.... Austin ......?????

Need to work out.
Oh hell no Austin, you're not backing out of this one. Not so fast young man.

Step Three - Proposal

There's a sudden compulsion I've got at the moment Shannon. I feel I'm not in full control of myself here but....
 

.... will you marry me?

OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG. 

Is that a yes?

YES!!! Of COURSE it's a YES. I can't believe you've finally took this step.Where's the ring?

Ohhh shiny!!! Don't care if I'm getting wet here, this has got to be the BEST moment of my entire life!!!
Wait, we're not finished yet.....

Step  Four - Marriage
WHAT????

You heard me. Now get cracking exchanging rings and stuff so we can start the next generation.

I didn't sign up for this.
I've got 24 hours of being in control of everything you do, so suck it up laddie and do the right thing.

And so they did, it was a quick private wedding, in the dripping rain, but who cares, they're married now, that's all that matters.

Step Five - WooHoo!!

NOW you're talking.

Sadly, this took a little while, since Shannon was a bit nervous (wedding day jitters) and took her time climbing into bed with him (at least she's not a Fembot assassin from Dr Evil!!)

Annnnnd, the ball is rolling ..... I hope.
And here endeth the whole 24 hours.

Welcome to Austin's world, Mrs Shannon Powers.

What ..... Just .... Happened?
