"We have six year old twins. I'm with you until they're at least adults," is Cougar's teasing reply, even if he's going to be with Jake much, much longer than that. He'd made that decision when they were both still Losers -- a quiet, knowing thing that he hadn't told anyone about. It just clicked in his head that he was going to be with that man.

"And good," he says emphatically, leaning in to kiss Jake again, a little harder. "I'd say let's have engaged sex, but the kids are awake in an hour."

Cougar makes a humming noise, his eyes closed. "Will debate," he says, even if he plans to go nowhere except for right here in Jake's arms. There is no other place he wants to be, not at all. "Tired, too," he sighs and curls in closer to Jake, like he can somehow forget how little he's slept. "When they come screaming in, I want you to remember kids were your idea," he sleepily mumbles against the warm skin of Jake's pec.

He gives a happy huff of breath at Jake's skin and lets his eyes fall shut. He's so tired and even though the news is enough to keep him awake, he sleeps like the dead. There are no night terrors, no bad dreams, and no screaming. At least, there's no screaming until the sun starts to filter in through the window and the kids wake up. The creaking bedroom door is the first indication that they're up, and then the bed dips with their combined weight.

"Daddy!" Jessica shouts. "Daddy, I want french toast, too!"

"And me!" Javi adds, shaking Jake, which in turn is shaking Cougar.

Cougar buries his face deeper into the pillow when Jake leaves and the light filters his view a little more, waking him up when he doesn't want to be awake. He tries to go back to sleep, but knowing his family is awake and downstairs makes that a nearly impossible thing. He stifles his yawn and sits up, reaching for a henley that he tugs on, along with his hat, heading downstairs to join them.

And he prays to God that Jake has coffee.

"Good morning, my kittens," he greets, voice a low rumble as he leans against the kitchen door.

Cougar softens and brightens when Jake uses that term of endearment on him, as he always does for such things. He rounds the kitchen to press kisses to Jessica and Javi's heads, ruffling their hair as he greets them each an individual good morning. Standing at their backs, he raises his eyebrow and silently asks Jake whether he's told them yet.

He can't imagine he has, he thinks as he sips his coffee, because his eardrums are still intact.

Cougar stays where he is, leaning into Jake's arms where the warmth is comfortable and the strength is evident in those beautiful arms. He winces heavily the minute that the news sinks in and they start to scream, prying away from Jake so he can catch Javi in his arms, who is babbling (unlike himself) into his Papi's ear about how they don't have to do this, but he's glad they are, and what kind of party are they having.

Javi switches to Spanish midway through, babbling just as much until the words run together and he buries his face in Cougar's neck.

"Do I get a dress?" Jessica demands, from where she's trying to scale Jake's arms even more.

Cougar winces and mutters a half-hidden plea in Pashto to keep the volumes low because he's got a headache from sleep deprivation and could use at least a moment or two of peace. He hefts Javi up on his hip a little more as he gets close enough to kiss Jake, a fond smile on his lips. "And tell Javi," he says. "What we need him to do."

He wants to give Jake this, too, the kids' happiness at being given tasks and a role in the wedding.

Cougar slips a little tongue in there because Jake is his fiancé and he can do whatever he likes, as far as he's concerned. He smiles down at Javi when their son looks up at him as if to check that this is what they really want, nodding encouragingly. "Yes," is Javi's soft, but excited reply when he does speak.

"Breakfast," Cougar says, settling Javi back down in his seat. "Neither of you were finished and I see fruit left."

"De verdad?" Cougar asks, genuinely concerned for a moment as he stares at Jake, hand over his heart in order to figure out if Jake really means it or if this is just more play. It's beating normally, which makes Cougar pry his hand away and run his fingers through Jake's hair. "Breathe," he coaxes.

"Or you will faint."

Cougar still eyes Jake warily, because he doesn't seem entirely okay just yet. He waits and keeps running his fingers through his hair, keeping a careful eye on the children because they're six and they have both Alvarez and Jensen genetics in them, which means when they want to be, they're plenty of trouble.

"You act panicky like that, you'll make me worry for your health," he warns.

Cougar raises his brow when Jake makes such an insistence, because it's not like Jake is normal, but he's probably right and he's fine. It's just that he's overwhelmed and dealing with a lot of good things right now. For them, good things are usually a prelude to an explosion, in his experience.

He holds on to Jake, rubbing his back as he soothes him with a light rock back and forward, trying not to let his distress bleed where the kids can see. "It's not. We've suffered enough. This is the reward for a very hard life." He kisses Jake's temple. "Besides, you forget all the nights awake with screaming infants. The repairs that took months. The car costing thousands."

Cougar raises his brow, thinking that it had been plenty bad for him, who had discovered a new form of torture in the way of two shrieking infants who wouldn't quiet down for anything. After that, he knows time has eased that pain, but he still remembers it. He gives the twins an encouraging smile and watches them wander off, already rattling on about what clothes they think they'll wear.

It gives him time to cup Jake's cheek, giving his partner a worried look. "Querido, it's not fake."
