Kevin and Keira had finally started school. According to Anushka, who'd known the twins since they were 5, she'd never seen them happier. They were making friends quite quickly. Kevin's best friend was a boy called Christopher, who went by Kit. This Kit isn't any Kit. He is none other than Christopher Carlton Cumberbatch. Yes, Benedict's son. Tom and Y/n knew that because one day, when they went to pick up the twins, Kevin dragged them to meet Kit, who was busy dragging his own parents, Ben and Sophie. The couples recognized each other immediately and told the little boys that they already knew each other. As it turns out, Keira had befriended Iris, Iris Mary Redmayne, Eddie Redmayne and Hannah Bagshawe's elder daughter. God, only a month in school and the four kids were already attached to the hip! There had been three or four 'mum' and 'dad' slip ups from the twins' side and after it happened, they'd act like it didn't. That pained Y/n and Tom but they didn't comment on it. Figuring that the kids could call them whatever they were comfortable with. During the month, Tom and Y/n tried their best to help the kids settle in their new school. Keira was progressing with the piano pretty fast. When Paddy got word of the fact that of all people, Tom was teaching Kevin football, the boy flipped out. He took over the role of the coach immediately. After all, he was the captain of the football team of his school and had gained quite a reputation in other schools. It was because of him that his school had been winning the inter-school football league from 3 years! Tom and Y/n were slowly getting busier now, as November approached and the awards season began. 'Wouldn't it be nice' was killing it at almost all of the award ceremonies. With critics lauding the direction, writing and acting, of course. The kids had been interacting with Tom and Y/n's parents a lot. To say that Nikki, Dom, Y/m/n(your mother's name) and Y/f/n(your father's name) doted on them would be the understatement of the millennium. There was a lot of hanging out with Harrison, Sam and Harry as well. The elder twins were teaching the younger ones so many pranks that it had Y/n concerned. Prank wars were fun, but the cleaning up was atrocious!

It was an October Sunday morning. Halloween was two weeks away, discussions for dressing up had already begun. So far, Keira wanted to dress up as Silk and Kevin wanted Spider-Man. Y/n was making pancakes, planning on surprising Tom and the twins with a good breakfast because she woke up early. Little did she know that her little plan was about to go to the dogs... In their bedroom, the twins slowly crept in to wake Y/n or Tom up, they were hungry! But Y/n wasn't in bed in the first place, so waking Tom be it! Kevin and Keira woke Tom up by continuosly shaking him. When he did get up, he noticed that the two kids were practically sitting on him, not that he minded ofcourse, and that his wifey was missing. So, Tom marched out of their shared bedroom like a soldier, Kevin and Keira on his heels. He saw Tessa on his way to finding his wife and quickly motioned for her to come with him. The group found Y/n in the kitchen, mixing the batter for presumably pancakes, humming to herself. Tom shared a malicious grin with the twins, started tip toeing to where she was standing, grabbing handfuls of flour from the opened contained in the process, the twins had to practically keep a hand on their mouths to control the laughs from flowing. "Y/n", Tom calls in a sing-song voice, the name rolling from his lips like honey. Y/n stops mixing a millisecond and turns around, smiling, only to be greeted with a fistful of flour in the face. She coughs a bit, "You're on Holland!", saying so, she sneakily takes an egg near the mixing bowl and dumps it on Tom's hair. Kevin and Keira were full-on laughing by now. The married couple shared a look full of malice and soon, the kids were as white as flour. Because they'd received adult size fistfuls of flour to the face. That was a lot for two eight year old, you have to admit. The twins grabbed what little flour their little hands could fit and there you have it, two adults Vs two kids. But they forgot something, Nikki had baked a cake and was coming over to give them some. When she stepped inside the house, she had no idea about the storm going on in the kitchen. She heard splattering noises coming from the direction of the kitchen and made her way there to find a blob of pancake batter being thrown at her, she dodged in the nick of time and the batter collided with the wall behind her. Nikki immediately went into her mum mode. Tom and the Holland brothers didn't call her the most badass woman ever for no reason. "What on earth is going on?", she asked, hands on her hips looking at two very guilty looking adults and two giggly kids. "Mum-", Tom started but got silenced by his mum. "Kiddos, shower. Now. Tom and Y/n clean it up!", she ordered. "Can't we do it later?", Y/n asked with her best puppy eyes, but to her chagrin, Nikki was immune to puppy eyes. That's what being a mum to four boys does to you. So, two hours and a breakfast later, Tom, Y/n, Kevin and Keira were headed to the park with Tessa. Kevin and Keira were giggling because they'd just witnessed their foster parents cowering under the wrath of Grandma Nikki. She'd told them that if they saw them doing childish things, to let her know, she'd take care of it. The walk to park was filled with chatter as the twins told their foster parents about their week at school. "You know mum-", Kevin said just as Keira said,"You know dad-" and the twins' right hand flew over their mouth. The eyes of the married couple were as wide as saucers and their heads snapped to meet each other's eyes. Y/n's Y/e/c(your eye colour) orbs meeting Tom's brown ones. "Umm, we're sorry... We didn't mean to make you-", Kevin started but was interrupted by the two adults engulfing him and Keira in a hug. "Can we call you mum and dad?", Keira asked, after being released from the hug. "Ofcourse you can!", Tom replied, beaming, recieving two smiles in return. Later, the family of five, yes five, Tessa counts as family, were on their way to a restaurant nearby to grab some lunch. After that they walked back home and the kids went to take a little nap. Tom busied himself with a script and Y/n was cuddled to his side on their shared bed, reading a book. "Tommy", Y/n purred. "Yes darling?", replied Tom. "The twins called us mum and dad", she gushed and Tom kissed her temple. "They did, yeah!", Tom replied softly. Y/n shifted to kiss him and he kissed back immediately, the script forgotten. Just then two loud 'eww's sound and the couple's heads snap to the direction of the sound to see Kevin and Keira standing near the door, looking absolutely mortified, a box of Monopoly in Kevin's hands. "Ummmm... Do you wanna play Monopoly?", Keira asked, breaking the silence because no one knew what to say. "Aren't you both supposed to be taking a nap?", Y/n asked, raising an eyebrow. "Couldn't sleep", the twins stated in unison, shrugging. "Okay, get ready to lose!", Tom declared, rubbing his hands together. "Oh, you're on!", Kevin replied. Thirty minutes later, Tom and Y/n were engaged in a heated argument while the twins were laughing their heads off. Poor Tessa has been sleeping but Y/n and Tom weren't exactly quiet, in fact they were yelling at each other. Suddenly, Y/n's phone rang. "Don't cheat!", she told the others and reached over to get her phone from the nightstand on her side of the bed. Her mum was calling. She mouthed to Tom that it was her mum and received the call. "Hey mum, how are you doing?", she asked cheerfully. "Y/n, honey, your dad...."
