---Geno's POV----

I woke up to find myself alone in bed. Reaper wasn't pressed into my side like usual, he wasn't even in the bed. I was completely alone in my room. Glancing at the alarm clock on the bedside table the big red lettering of 6:37 AM greeted me.

The air was cold, and I shivered, pulling the blankets up around me as I sat up on the bed, looking around for my deathly lover.

"Reaper...?"

No answer.

I blinked, shifting out of bed as I walked over to the chair in the corner of the room where my clothes had been folded up ready. I quickly changed onto them before walking over to the door, peeking down the hallway as I looked for Reaper.

He was still nowhere to be seen.

I glanced into Goth and Raven's shared room, checking that he wasn't cuddling one of them or something.

The two of them were curled up in their separate beds, small frowns on their face as they slept. Goth was completely tangled up in the sheets and half falling off the bed. Raven was just curled up in an almost protective ball under the blankets.

I walked into the room, just wanting to quickly check they were okay. The constant memory of that creepy fucker asking about our kids still properly creeped me out. And now I'm constantly worried about them.

At the time Reaper had summoned his scythe and swung it at the creep when he'd suddenly just ran into the house, but they just fizzed and disappeared. We have no clue where he's gone, and quite frankly, we don't want to.

I shifted goth so that he was fully on his bed and then untangled his blanket, tossing it over him. "That's better."

Turning around, I walked over to Raven, petting him on the head gently as I smiled.

Ravens always been a more peaceful sleeper. Goths a little wild to say the least.

I blinked, narrowing my eye as I heard a noise from downstairs ring out. I quickly walked out of the room, shutting the door behind me before stealthily creeping down the stairs.

The sound of shuffling paper could be heard, along with the apparent clink of a mug.

I stepped into the living room suddenly, not really knowing what to expect.

The person on the sofa let out a yelp, nearly dropped their coffee all over some paperwork, and then proceeded to fall off of the sofa.

I blinked. "Reaper?"

The cloaked officer groaned from the floor, pushing himself up to his feet as he smiled weakly. "Hi?"

"What are you doing?" I asked curiously, glancing over the paper files. Upon seeing my name on a few of them I narrowed my eyes, scanning over all of the papers.

Reaper chuckled, picking up his pen from the floor. "I didn't think you'd remember."

"...Remember what...?"

"It's your last day."

I blinked rapidly, going completely poker faced. "Last day of what?"

Reaper snorted before pulling me down to my side, smirking. "Your last day on house arrest~"

I froze for a moment before glancing down at the papers. "Wait really?!"

Reaper nodded, kissing my cheek. "This is the last day of your sentence Gen, you'll be free after this."

"F-Free?" I went limp against him suddenly, my mind trying to process what I'd just been told.

"Obviously we'd have to keep it a secret that we're together, but you'll be allowed outside and that stuff. So basically, you've got your own life back, but you'll be living with your family and not a bunch of criminals in an abandoned rotting house."

I snorted. "They were my family."

Reaper rolled his eyes, kissing my neck softly. "So you'd tell someone that your related to Nightmare?"

"Uh, hell yes. If I was in trouble I'd be like bitch the tentacle octopus is in my family and people would just book it or something."

Reaper went frisk faced. "So that doesn't work for me?"

"To no offence, Reaper. People are more afraid of criminal psycho octopuses these days than cops with a scythe."

"Oh how the world has taken a turn for the bad..."

"Mmhm..." I looked back down at all the papers. "So what are these for?"

Reaper sat up straighter, letting me hug his side as he looked over the papers and picked up his pen once more. "I need to sign all this stuff confirming that you obeyed all the rules and haven't done anything criminal."

My eye twitched and I growled at him. "The real rules or your rules?"

He grinned, winking at me. "Both."

I hissed weakly, burying my face into his arm. "Can we take the kids out as well...?"

The kids have been outside before with Reaper, but it's so incredibly risky to have them out in public that we normally just let them out in the garden. They're mostly okay with that, and often just play together, using their imagination for make believe adventures that Reaper and I would frequently be dragged into.

"Maybe. It would still be a risk, but we can see."

I nodded, burying my face into his arm as I sighed.

Suddenly the sound of soft feet walking down stairs rang out and we both looked up to see Goth and Raven stumble in, both still clearly tired.

"Why are you two up so earrlllyyyy?" Raven asked, blinking sleepily as he yawned halfway through his sentence.

Goth nodded, rubbing his eye sockets. "Yeah, you normally take forever to get up, always cuddling and stuff..."

Reaper chuckled and I blushed. "Well we're just sorting out some things for Geno."

Raven blinked curiously, both him and Goth walking over and sitting down either side of us. "What's that?"

"Geno goes free tomorrow." Reaper said, kissing my cheek softly.

"Wait really?!" Raven asked, looking surprised.

Reaper nodded before looking down at me. "My little birdy will finally fly again~"

I huffed, weakly punching his arm. "It's been fifteen years since I last went roof jumping as your little 'songbird'. If I try now I'll probably fall and die."

"I'll catch you~"

I rolled my eye, looking away.

"Besides Geno, your gang literally broke Error out earlier, maybe the Criminal life is calling back to you."

I buried my face into Reaper's chest, thinking off all the fun times we'd had as a group. Like when Nightmare found my hot chocolate and got swarmed by all the others until there was none of it left. Or when Dust and Nightmare lost all sanity and saved a cop and an asylum escapist from that snowstorm.

"Yeah...maybe it is..."

---Sci's POV----

I shivered as I felt Gasters presence behind me, watching intently as I managed to find Geno's case File and bring it up.

He leaned over my shoulder slightly, making me go rigid and tense. "Oh yes...free tomorrow? This will do perfectly."

I shivered, the feeling of his raspy breath against my face making me want to throw up.

"Sci."

I looked up, gulping. "Y-Yes sir?"

"I want you to get him for me. After all~ it's so much harder to look after your children when there's only one parent~"

I nodded weakly. "Yes...sir..."
