That wasn't exactly a reaction Aidan expected. When he was pushed away he fell backwards colliding painfully with a shelf or something. He didn't even know as the sharp pain blackened his vision. A soft yelp left his lips and he curled up trying not to move. He just raised head a little to see if Brooke was okay

Christian didn't even stop to make sure he was okay when he heard the yelp. Aidan was a big boy, he couldn't stop to baby him every time he pricked his finger. He sat down on the very edge of the bed, holding a confused Brooklyn tightly to his chest. His eyes stared blankly at the wall opposite him. He was such a terribly undeserving father.

Aidan tried to get up but the pain in his back was too strong. Instead he crawled back to the room and sat on the floor in front of Chris. "She is okay" He said sotly reaching out to caress Brooke's small cheek. "Imade sure she would be okay." Helooked up at Christian trying to find a comfortable position to sit in and grimacing in pain every time he moved

Christian shook his head no. Aidan was only trying to make him feel better. She wasn't okay, he could have lost her in his stupidity. She would have been better off in the care of her underage mother. There were too many distractions for Chris. He avoided his eyes, gripping Brooke tighter to his chest as she reached out for Aidan to take her. Making her cry in discomfort.

Aidan was finally able to kneel, unaware of the large purple bruise that was already forming on his lower back. He walked on his knees to Chris and Brooke and cuddled the girl his boyfriend was still holding in his arms. "It's okay baby girl. It's okay" He looked up at Christian sadly. "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have been distracting you"

Christians eyes fell slowly upon his boyfriend kneeling in front of him, his face constricted with both worry and pain. He didn't blame Aidan for distracting him, he was the one who had suggested taking a bath together. If he hadn't then none of this would ever have happened. "Do you hate me?" He whispered quietly. "I would. It's all my fault"

Aidan shook head quickly not really understanding why he was supposed to hate his boyfriend. "Of course I don't hate you" He said softly trying to smile despite the pain. "Why would I hate you? You did nothing wrong. It's not your fault." He reached out and caressed Christian's cheek. "And besides that's why Brooke is going to have two parents. So you don't have to deal with everything yourself." He would help him, so Christian would have some time for himself sometimes. And maybe sometimes Reese could babysit for them so they could spend some time alone

It was mostly the shock that had Christian in such a state. The shock that he could forget so easily about the little girl in his arms. He didn't put all this effort in trying to be the perfect father just to turn around and forget about her. A soft whimper fell from his lips as Aidan stroked his cheek and he fell to the floor in front of him, burying his face in his boyfriends shoulder. Crushing little Brooklyn between them. "I'm sorry"

"Shhh, don't apologize. There's nothing to be sorry for" Aidan whispered wrapping his arms around Christian. He moved them to a position comfortable for all three of them. One of his hands was caressing Brooke's hair, the other was rubbing Christian's back gently. "It's alright. Everything is alright Chris"

It was a few minutes before Chris was calm enough to look up again, wiping the tears that he had not known were there from his eyes. Maybe he was overreacting a tad over this, nothing bad had happened. He had stopped the moment he realized what he was doing. "You are really serious about being her second..you know?" He asked weakly.

Aidan looked at Christian and his heart squirmed. He'd never seen the other man so vulnerable. But at the same time it made him look more natural. more open. And that meant he really did think of Aidan seriously if he was ready to show him this side of himself. "Yeah. As long as you two want that too of course"

Christian honestly wasn't ready to show him this side of himself. His weak side. It wasn't fair that he couldn't keep anything about himself hidden from Aidan. There had to be something left to surprise him with later on in the relationship, if there was going to be a later with them. Their first break up was still fresh in his mind considering that they had just got back together the night before.
He nodded. That was exactly what he wanted, seeing as he was the one to suggest it. It was obvious that Chris couldn't handle doing this all on his own anymore. He needed help as much as he hated to admit it. "Will you get her clothes for me?" He asked as a change of subject, pointing towards his dresser where her night gown and a fresh diaper laid on top.

"Of course" Aidan got up slowly trying to hide the grimace of pain. He walked to the dresser and picked up the things Christian mentioned then walked back to them and sat on the bed taking Brooke from Christian so the other could get up and help him. Aidan wasn't very much experienced with diapers. "Is there anything that has to be done first?" HE asked

Christian shook his head no as he pushed himself onto his feet, snatching the lotion bottle from the dresser before he sat down next to them. "Here put that on her first.." He mumbled, handing him the bottle. He needed some time to calm down on his own, his knees were still weak and his hands were shaking. No need to frighten her anymore than he already had.

Aidan nodded taking the bottle from his hands and applying it onto Brooke's skin blushing heavily in a way so typical for him. Maybe he was going to be her second father but he still felt intimidated. Not because he found anything sexual in it. Definitely not. he wasn't some kind of perverted freak. But he was very nervous he'd do something wrong.
When he finished he took the diaper and was watcing it for a momen trying to figure out how to put it on
