Part Two: Ch. 59
"Mama, I don't want to wear this!" Vincent pouted while looking over at her.
"Tough noodles!" Trixie huffed. "You're wearing it!"
Vincent turned around and looked at himself in the mirror. His hair was combed back with gel holding it in place, except for a few stray strands that dangled over his forehead. He was dressed in a black Brioni suit with a formal light pink button up shirt, the top couple of buttons were undone. "It looks expensive.. I don't want to wear it, Mom!" Vincent whined.
"That's because it is." Trixie snorted while fixing Isabellas' curly hair. "Hurry up and eat your cookie so we can get you in your dress, baby." Trixie smiled and gently pinched Isabellas' cheek.
"Pink?" Isabella questioned while pointing to the tiny white garment bag hanging up.
"Pink." Trixie confirmed with a chuckle. "Just like you *demanded.*" Isabella just smiled and went back to eating her cookie.
"Fine." Vincent huffed. "I'll wear it."
"As if you had a choice." Kane mumbled from his sitting position on the couch.
Vincent glared at his father before grinning. "You look so adorable in your purple suit, father."
Kane narrowed his eyes up at his son. "It's mulberry." Kane stated matter-of-factly. "Plus your mother picked it out, it matches her gown."
"Whatever, it's still a shade of purple." Vincents' grin grew wider when he saw his father roll his eyes. "Anyways, where is Lenny? You said he was going to get ready with us.."
"Set is helping him get ready in one of the spare rooms somewhere." Trixie waved her hand in the air, dismissing Vincent while she helped Isabella into her dress.
"Ugh! How long does it take to get ready!" Vincent groaned while pacing around the castles main living room. "Why did we get ready in here anyways? What was wrong with our wing?"
"I didn't want the mess or all the people to gather there." Trixie answered while straightening out her own dress.
Kane stood to his feet and took quick steps towards Trixie and wrapped a possessive arm around her waist. "You look so fucking hot." Kane growled lowly causing Trixie to blush.
"Stop it!" Trixie giggled while playfully smacking his chest. "You're too much."
"Okay you two." Vincent scowled while turning his gaze towards Isabella.
"Pretty!" Isabella chirped while doing a slow spin in her dress.
"So pretty!" Vincent smiled while scooping her up in his arms. "The prettiest of them all!" Isabella just giggled while kissing Vincents' cheek.
"Lets get this party started!" KJ announced loudly while entering the room.
"What took you so long!" Vincent complained.
"I had to dress Danny while he was sleeping!" KJ frowned at him.
"Wait, where is Danny?" Vincent asked while juggling a squirming Isabella in his arms.
"Oh no. Is he reverse cycling?" Trixie questioned.
"Something like that." KJ shrugged. "And my dad has him but I just hope Danny wears himself out tonight at the ball so he can actually sleep all night."
"Good luck with that." Vincent snorted.
KJ just pursed his lips while glaring at him before stepping forward and snatching Isabella from him. Isabella let out a little squeal, quickly wrapping her arms around KJs' neck, hugging him tight. "Do you like my bowtie and vest, Issy?"
Isabella nodded her head happily while pointing at his bowtie. "Pink!" Isabella grinned.
"If I knew you were wearing pink to match Bella then I wouldn't have!" Vincent pouted unhappily.
"Again.. As if you had a choice." Kane snorted while eyeing the entryway of the living room. "Alright, lets go."
"What? We're waiting on Lenny!" Vincent scowled while whipping his head around ready to argue until his eyes landed on Lennon. Vincents' mouth immediately felt dry while his eyes drank in Lennons' appearance. "Lenny.." Vincent whispered while taking slow steps towards him.
Lennons neck and cheeks turned a deep red just from Vincents' intense stare. Lennon was dressed in the same Brioni suit as Vincent but instead of it being black, it was a solid white with the same type of formal light pink button up shirt but with a white bowtie to match. His hair remained the messy grey curls atop his head. "How-how do I look..?" Lennon asked with a bashful smile.
Vincent gulped, taking one last step before he was just inches in front of Lennon. "You look so.. so beautiful, baby." Vincent whispered while gently caressing Lennons' cheek before his loving gaze turned hard. "Forget the ball, lets go upstairs." Vincent grabbed Lennons' hand and was about to drag him upstairs until Trixie stepped forward.
"Ooh no you don't!" Trixie poked Vincents' chest. "We're leaving now. Todd already left with his family."
"Yeah, my parents said they would be waiting in the cars." KJ smiled while walking with Isabella towards the door.
"But.." Vincent went to protest but Lennon gently squeezing his hand had him reluctantly following everyone else out the door. "Fine."

"I want the blue one!" Danny chirped excitedly while reaching for the toy dinosaur.
"Then the blue one you shall have!" The young girl behind the booth smiled down at him.
"Thanks." KJ smiled.
"He's adorable. How old is he?" The girl batted her lashes at KJ with a shy smile.
"He has a mate." Vincent scowled at the girl while grabbing KJ by the arm and dragging him to the next booth.
"You're so crazy." KJ laughed while allowing him to do so. Todd, Lennon and Danny were a few steps ahead of them, ready for the next game.
"She's the third girl that has tried flirting with you." Vincent growled at him.
"And she would have been the third girl I shut down if you wouldn't have been all crazy." KJ countered.
"I still don't like it." Vincent shrugged but quickly smiled when he saw Lennon scoop up Isabella in his arms.
*Our babies!* Axe cooed while watching them with dreamy eyes.
"Daddy, look!" Isabella squealed while pointing at a giant white teddy bear.
"Alright, alright." Kane sighed while walking up to the booth. "What's the game here?"
"You get three rings, one green, one red and one blue. Toss them and get them on their colored bottle and win a giant bear!" The overly eager man explained.
"Easy." Kane chuckled while grabbing the three rings.
"You can't win every game here.." Trixie frowned at him while gently rubbing his arm.
"Of course I can, baby." Kane grinned at her and pecked her lips.
"No, I mean, you *can't.* Isabella doesn't need a million more stuffed animals and toys." Trixie gave him a stern look.
"This is the last one, I promise." Kane reassured her.
Trixie gave him a soft smile while walking over and pinching Isabellas' cheek. They all watched Kane successfully match each colored ring to their colored bottle. "Yay!!" Trixie cheered while Isabella mimicked her.
"Thanks, Dad." Vincent smirked while grabbing the bear. "I always wanted a giant teddy."
"No!" Isabella cried and tried reaching for the bear.
"Knock it off, Vincent." Kane scowled. "Not here."
Vincent rolled his eyes but handed over the bear to Isabella. "I'll *behave.*" Vincent air quoted the last word with another eye roll causing Kane to glare at him.
"Hey, I hate to interrupt you guys but it's thirty minutes until midnight and you still haven't given your speech." Azrael, Gabriels' eldest son, spoke while walking up to them.
"Your father sent you, huh?" Kane snorted.
Azrael just chuckled while shrugging his shoulders and walking back inside.
Kane let out an annoyed sigh while looking around at everyone. "Alright, kiddos. Lets head inside for a bit."
"Fine by me. It's getting a bit chilly anyway." KJ responded while picking up Danny who was way more interested in his new dinosaur.
"Good, my feet are killing me." Todd complained while marching inside.
"And I'm starving!" Trixie gave a quick kiss to Kanes' cheek before heading inside as well.
Kane looked back at Vincent with a raised eyebrow. "No comment like everyone else?"
Vincent shook his head no. "I got everything I need right here." Vincent smiled while raising his hand that was now holding onto Lennons.
"Come on, lets go." Kane chuckled while turning back around and heading inside.
Vincent looked down at Lennon and smiled. "You're so beautiful."
