Daddy Thrax-An OJ RP (Chp 21)

*the bedroom door opens and a very sleepy eyed cell comes out of it*

Thrax: *hears the door and heads to meet Ozzy* Hey there, sweetie. *smiles at his son*

Vic: *softly to his wife* He's attentive to the boy's needs.

Marie: *nods*

Ozzy: *yawns a little and hugs him* Hi daddy... *rubs his eyes as he leans on him*

Thrax: *scoops Ozzy into his arms and carries him into the living room*

Marie: *let’s out a soft giggle as the two enter* -Wish I had a camera on me.-

Ozzy: *nuzzles Thrax a little and looks up at the two older viruses in the room*

Thrax: *looks towards his folks smiling as he held Ozzy*

Vic: *approaches* Here... Give him to me a moment Thrax. *holds his hands out for the boy*

Thrax: *nods, gently settling Ozzy in Vic's arms and sits down beside his mother*

Marie: *wraps her arm round Thrax and pulls him into a hug*

Vic: *picks Ozzy up who looks timidly at the larger virus* Oh hush now you know who I am. *sits with him and cradles the younger cell in his arms like a wee babe* This used to calm you when you were little Thrax. *lightly patting Ozzy on the butt while he rocks him*

Thrax: *blushes bright red* Father!

Vic: *chuckles* Well it did.... It seems to be working for little Ozzy here too... *noting that the cell seems less tense*

Thrax: *groans slightly placing his hand over his eyes*

Marie: *tries not to laugh* Oh Thrax calm down, he’s only messing with you.

Vic: *chuckles, patting the cell on the head, Ozzy flinches somewhat instinctively* Shhh.. *pats his butt some more, figuring it's a throwback to his original childhood*

Thrax: *looks towards his father and son, smiling* -It's been so long since I've seen this.-

Ozzy: *is kind of staring at Vic, unsure just yet of what to make of him*

Marie: *smiles softly at Ozzy* He still seems a bit nervous around you, honey. *looks at Vic.*

Vic: Yes well... I'm scary. *lightly taps Ozzy on the nose* aren’t I boy? *chuckles but not harshly*

Marie &Thrax: *exchange sceptical looks and roll their eyes*

Vic: *chuckles at them and continues to coddle Ozzy*

Marie: *whisper to Thrax* Never thought I'd see your father like this again. *quietly giggle*

Thrax: *silently laughs*

Vic: What are you two whispering about now? *but mostly ignoring them, trying to find a ticklish spot on Ozzy's side*

Thrax & Marie: Oh nothing. *smirks*

Vic: *chuckles*

Ozzy: *meeps as a spot is found*

Vic: hah! There we are... *tickles*

Thrax: *sniggers* Looks like you've found Ozzy's ticklish spot.

Vic: *chuckles* Yep. *continues to tickle the now squirming cell*

Marie & Thrax: *lean against each other as they watch the two enjoying themselves*

Ozzy: *laughs a little* ok ok stoop!

Thrax: *bites his lip holding back his own laughter*

Vic: *soon stops tickling but after the tickle session Ozzy seems far more at ease with Thrax's father*

Thrax: *can't help but smile at his son at the moment.*

Vic: *chuckles* Of course you know you can leave him with us on occasion Thrax. *is back to bouncing Ozzy on his knee*

Thrax: *nods, smiling* Of course father.

Marie: *gets to her feet and takes Ozzy into her own arms, gently rocking him* We’ll be able to help in any way we can. *coos at Ozzy*

Ozzy: *looks up at Marie as she takes him from his grandfather*

Marie: *smiles sweetly at him* It's okay, little one. *cradles Ozzy to her chest, stroking his face, cooing*

Ozzy: *flinches a little as if expecting a slap then looks up at her again*

Marie: *sensing Ozzy fear* It's okay little one you're safe now. You're with your real family. *begins to rub his back as she continues rocking Ozzy*

Ozzy: *looks up at her, and rubs his eyes a little*

Marie: *smiles sweetly at him, holding him close giving her own soft purr.*

Ozzy: You purr too?

Marie: *smiles* Who do think Thrax inherited it from? *nuzzles him gently*

Ozzy: *nuzzles back a little and cuddles*

Thrax: *looks at his mother and son with joy in his heart, smiling*

Marie: *gently coos to Ozzy taking his hand in hers*

Ozzy: *looks to her hand and takes hold of it in both of his with a childlike curiosity, looking more closely at her hand and claws*

Marie: *smiles at him* -He is just like a child. My son's child.- *gently massages Ozzy's hand, cooing to him*

Vic: *walks over to Thrax and places a hand on his son's shoulder, smiling at him, his voice a whisper* I do believe son... that he has captured our hearts.

Thrax: *smiles and gives Vic hand a gentle squeeze, whispering* He captured mine on day one. *sighs lovingly at the memory.*

Ozzy: *looks up at Marie*

Marie: *smiles sweetly* Hey there, angel. *rocks him gently*

Ozzy: *smiles softly* daddy calls me that...

Marie: It's also one of my nicknames I used on Thrax when he was young. *strokes Ozzy's cheek lightly* And now for it can be used for you, little one.

Ozzy: It was?

Marie: *nods, nuzzling Ozzy*

Ozzy: *nuzzles back, resting his head on her shoulder*

Marie: *smiles sweetly to him, rubbing his back* You’re defiantly a dream come true for us, little one.

Thrax: *nods in agreement*

Ozzy: I am? How come?

Marie: *sits down on the couch, cradling him* After the attack we thought it was the end of the line. Thrax, unable to raise a family and with me and Vic it was goodbye to our teachings.

Ozzy: *softly* Thrax told me what happened. . .

Thrax: *looks away*

Marie: *nods* And I bet he told you that we were never going to harm anyone. We just wanted to live in peace without any problems.

Ozzy: *nods a little and looks towards his father* Daddy.

Thrax: *looks towards his son* Yes sweetie?

Ozzy: *reaches*

Marie: *smiles, handing Ozzy to Thrax

Thrax: *chuckles lightly, taking Ozzy into his arms*

Ozzy: *hugs him tightly*

Thrax: *gently chuckles and begins bouncing Ozzy on his knee*

Ozzy: *smiles and hugs him*

Thrax & Marie: *exchange proud smiles and loving gazes as they look at Ozzy*

Ozzy: *rests his head on his chest and nuzzles up under his chin*

Thrax: *sighs softly to Ozzy, purring before looking up at Vic smiling*

Vic: *smiles back and pats Thrax on the back, rubbing Ozzy's head*

Marie: *bring her legs up on the couch and smiles towards her favourite men*

Vic: *sits next to her and wraps an arm around her, pulling her close and rubbing her upper arm in an affectionate manner*

Marie: *gives him a gentle nudge* Makes me wish for another little one of our own. *sighs*

Vic: *smiles gently at her and strokes her face next , whispering softly to her* Me too...

Marie: *sighs sadly* but I'm just dreamin'. *looks at Thrax holding Ozzy in a loving manner, smiling*

Vic: *leans down and kisses her on the cheek*

Ozzy: *cuddles, smiling softly*

Thrax: *rubs his back then looks towards his parents* At least now we have each other. *kisses Ozzy on top of his head*

Ozzy: *looking up at Thrax's parents* Where are you staying?

Marie: The entire fat area is abandon so me and Vic can stay in any of these houses without any worry.

Ozzy: *smiles softly and nods* Yeah Frank's been taking better care of himself lately since that scare a while back... Got Thrax to thank for that one...

Thrax: *slightly bushes*

Ozzy: Hey good came out of it right? *smiles softly*

Thrax: *nods smiling*

Ozzy: *kisses him on the cheek*

Marie: *smiles at them before turning to her husband* You know Vic, that serum Thrax invented could help you and me move round the city easier.

Vic: Indeed. It's been... quite annoying lately trying to avoid being seen.

Marie: *nods* And I've been jumpy at the slightest noise, thinking that we're being fallowed.

Vic: would you mind if we used it son?

Thrax: *nods* Go ahead. I've made several batches of the stuff, just in case.

Vic: Thank you.

Marie: *gets to her feet* I'll feel safer putting it on now. *heads out of the room* What about you Vic?

Vic: The same I think.

Marie: *motions him to fallow* Where is it kept Thrax?

Thrax: *looks up at her* In the bedroom closet on the top self at the back.

Vic: *stands to follow his wife*

*the phone rings... bring bring bring*

Thrax: *gets up balancing Ozzy on his hip and answers the phone* Hello?

Voice: Thrax? That you? Look can you come in for a few hours tonight? One of the guys twisted his ankle and isn't gonna be able to come in.

Thrax: *swallows a lump in his throat and looks at Ozzy* Tonight? Is it important?

Voice: Yeah kinda... we could really use the help man.

Thrax: *hesitates but answers* Alright I'll be there.

Voice: Great! We'll see you in a bit. Thanks a ton. *hangs up*

Vic: *comes into the room after having used the spray* something wrong son?

Thrax: *rubs his eyes with his fingers* Boss called me in to work tonight, would you both mind watching Ozzy tonight?

Marie: *enters still examining herself because of the spray* Of course, we’ll be glad to watch over him.

Vic: Certainly! *smiles and rubs Ozzy's head* Just tell us what he needs. *smiles*

Ozzy: *looks up at his grandparents then at Thrax* Will you be back soon?

Thrax: *smiles at Ozzy* I won't be long okay baby? *kisses Ozzy on the forehead* -The boss better pay me over time for dragging me away from my son.-

Ozzy: *softly* ok....

Vic: anything special we should know? When's bedtime for him?

Thrax: Around ten for him. *turns to Marie* Mother I'm counting on you to punish him if he misbehaves, we both know father doesn't know his own strength.

Marie: *nods* Alright Thrax. I’ll make sure Ozzy behaves himself.

Vic: You'll be a good boy for us won't you Ozzy?

Ozzy: *nods a little though looks sad to see Thrax go even if he's only gonna be gone for a little while*

Thrax: *hands Ozzy to Vic* Now Ozzy I want you to be good for your grandparents okay?

Ozzy: *nods a little* ok... you’ll be home tonight right?

Thrax: Of course baby. *kisses Ozzy then turns to his folks* I'll be back as soon as possible.

Marie: *nods*

Ozzy: *nuzzles a little and looks up at Marie*

Marie: *smiles warmly, stroking his face*

Vic: Have a good night at work. *smiles* We'll take good care of him

Thrax: *smiles back and grabs his coat* I won't be long. *waves and heads out the door*
