Chapter Text
"YOU FUCKING BITCH!!!!!" A demon shouted slapping Sir Pentious hard on the face knocking the snake demon to the ground, Pentious yelps in pain as he held his cheek before getting grabbed by his hair and force him up to the demons face "5:30, that's the exact time I told you to came back by, 5:30, but what time did you come back, 6 fucking 10!!" The demon shouted slamming Pentious to a nearby wall making the snake demon cry out in pain "I-I-I'm sorry Samson, I-I-I tried to return home at that time, b-but the line was too long and--!!" Pentious was cut off when Samson grabbed him tightly by the neck practically strangling him "I don't fucking care for your excuses, I expect you to come home on time so that I don't have to deal with those annoying eggs and those whining brats when I come home!!" Samson said slapping him in the face again
Pentious cried out again as Samson throws him hard to another wall "next time don't be fucking late, I expect dinner to be ready in one hour!" Samson said before leaving slamming the door hard behind him. Pentious whimpers as he lies on the floor panting and gasping for air, then he slowly gets back up holding his side as he lean against the wall, the snake demon felt something wet trickle down his face and wiped it off revealing it to be blood from the hard slaps "oh dear" Pentious said going to the kitchen, he ripped up a piece of a paper towel, rolled it up, and stuff it into his nose stopping the bleeding, he then went to wash his hands and was about to prepare dinner "mama?" a little voice said making him turn to see his 4 year old son Orion, a little demon with ear length black hair, two small fangs, red eyes with slits, wearing a slightly oversize blue shirt with a few tears and black shorts
Pentious smiles at the sight of his son "hello my little star what brings you here" Pentious said smiling at his 4 year old son, Orion looks at his mama seeing the big bruise on his cheek and the black eye "daddy's mad again isn't he?" Orion said, the snake demon smile faltered a bit before he fixed it "a little bit, but it's fine my little star, he'll be better soon" Pentious said going to his son gently picking him up, the 4 year old didn't look convinced as he wrapped his arms around Pentious neck "would you like to help me make dinner?" Pentious asked looking at his son
Orion looks up at him and nods "wonderful" Pentious said smiling slithering to the stove "now I'm having trouble picking what dinner we should have, and I was hoping you could help me decide" Pentious said looking at his son, Orion thought for a moment "spaghetti and meatballs?" The 4 year old ask looking at the older snake demon "that sounds perfect, let's get started" Pentious said and went to make dinner with the help from Orion, Pentious would handle the hot things like boiling water and cooking the meat while Orion poured the uncooked pasta into the pot and opened the jars of tomato sauce. As Pentious empties the cooked pasta into a strainer he heard loud footsteps and turn to see his 4 year old son Peter, a little demon with ear length curly black hair, two small fangs, red eyes with slits, wearing a slightly oversize white tank undershirt with a few holes, brown slightly dirty shorts, and a blanket tied around his neck like a cape and holding a wooden sword
"Mama you won't believe what I did!" Peter said smiling, Pentious chuckles as he placed the pasta into the pot "and what did you do my Peter Pan?" Pentious asked looking at his son "me and the Egg bois were playing, away from my baby siblings and I climbed on top of the big dresser and jumped off it I used my sword to stop my fall but I tore the sheets cause of it" Peter said proudly. Pentious looks at his son in shock and let out a sigh "that sounds quite the adventure Peter Pan, but please be careful dear, I wouldn't want you to get hurt" Pentious said gently cupping his sons face "okay mama, I will" Peter said smiling "now go take a seat at the table, I'm almost done getting dinner ready" Pentious said, Peter nodded and ran to the table climbing up his chair and took a seat
Pentious place Orion in the chair next to Peter and went back to the stove pouring the tomato sauce and meatballs into the pot with the pasta and mixed it all together, he then placed it on low and went to set the table placing the plates, cups, and forks on each side of the table before heading to the bedroom his sons share. Inside was a bit of a mess with broken toys everywhere, drawings scattered across the room, and at the center was a big blanket fort. He went to the crib and smiled at his three 2 month old sons, Cole, Conner, and Cooper all three identical with snake tails
Cooper stirred and opened his eyes to see Pentious staring at them "hello my little ones" Pentious said gently petting their heads, Cooper cooed and grabbed the hand as Cole and Conner began to wake up, the snake demon gently gathered the three babies into his arms and head to the table placing Connor, Cole, and Cooper into the twin play yard that was the twins when they were babies and head back to the kitchen to place the pot in the center of the table along with a liter of juice. As he was placing the spaghetti on the plate for Orion the door slams opened as Samson walked out to the table sitting down
Pentious place his sons plate down and fixed Samson plate, placing it down in front of him as he fixes Peter's and himself, when he was done he sat in his seat as the three waited for Samson to eat, a few seconds later Samson began eating and the twins began to eat, Pentious picked up Cole, moving his shirt a bit and began breastfeeding the infant before eating his meal. They all ate in silence the air very tense as the family ate Orion, Peter, or Pentious doesn't dare make a sound as they ate, Orion placed his fork down to grab his cup but accidentally knocks his fork off the table making Samson look at him, the 4 year quickly began looking for it squinting his eyes to find it, Samson began to get annoyed and Pentious used his tail to push the fork to his sons hand, Orion grabs it and went back to his seat resuming to eat, Samson stared at the 4 year old before going back to his plate
After a whole hour of silent eating, Samson finished eating and went back to his room, when the door was slam shut Pentious let out a sigh of relief. He looks over to Orion who was rubbing his eyes "is your vision still blurry?" Pentious asked as the 4 year old stops "yes, but I see a little bit if I squint" Orion said looking at the snake demon, Pentious gently cups his sons face with one hand staring at his oldest eyes 'His vision is getting worse, I need someway to get him glasses' Pentious thought, then Conner shifted in his arms telling him that the 2 month old is full, he gently place the infant into the play yard and picked up Cooper grabbing the baby bottle he prepared earlier and fed the infant
"Done!" Peter said smiling his face covered in sauce and his plate empty, Pentious couldn't help but chuckle "I see" Pentious said chuckling adjusting the bottle under his chin, he grabs a napkin and wipes his 4 year old's face, once he was done he looks over at Orion seeing him finished as well wiping his face "all finish my little ones?" Pentious asked looking at his twin sons, they nodded looking at the snake demon "would you like some dessert?" Pentious asked, Orion and Peter nodded smiling widely, Pentious smiles and stands up from his seat slithering to a drawer and pull out two peppermints for his sons "here you are, don't eat them too fast now" Pentious said holding the mint candy out, the twins took them and eat them smiling as they suck on the mint. Pentious smile fell a little wanting to give his children a proper dessert then just a peppermint, but Samson would be furious about that, the last time the snake demon brought home a box of vanilla wafers and Samson discovered them he was beaten to the point of unconscious and Samson threw them away
"Now go get ready for bed now, and don't forget to brush your teeth, I'll be there to tuck you both in soon" Pentious said with a smile "okay mama" the twins said and rushed off to their room. Pentious let's out a sigh and looks down at Cooper seeing the infant already finishing the bottle and falling asleep, he placed him back into the play yard and began to clean up, washing the dishes, cups, and silverware before putting them up, then placing the pot of spaghetti into the fridge before making a lunch for Samson, before finally cleaning up the table. When he was done he gathered the triplets into his arms and head to the twins room hearing the giggles coming from the blanket fort
He chuckled and went inside the fort, inside was a nest of blankets and pillows with soft led lights hanging above, inside the nest were the twins and the Egg bois who were already asleep "I believe that we are sleeping here instead of the beds, hm" Pentious asked, the twins nodded smiling. Pentious chuckles and gently placed the sleeping triplets into the nest before gently coiling around his sons "now go to sleep little ones, close your eyes and dream of happy things, dream of shining stars twinkling in the clear night sky, dream of an island inside the star filled with adventure, pirates, Indians, mermaids and lost boys, may you not dream of bad things but only happy one knowing that I am always here" Pentious said hugging Peter and Orion as they yawn
"Close your eyes Have no fear
The monster's gone, he's on the run
And your mommy's here
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
Beautiful boy
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
Beautiful boy
Before you go to sleep
Say a little prayer
Every day, in every way
It's getting better and better
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
Beautiful boy
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
Beautiful boy
Out on the ocean, sailing away
I can hardly wait
To see you come of age
But I guess we'll both just have to be patient
'Cause it's a long way to go
A hard row to hoe
Yes, it's a long way to go
But in the meantime
Before you cross the street
Take my hand
Life is what happens to you
While you're busy making other plans
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
Beautiful boy
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
Beautiful boy
Before you go to sleep
Say a little prayer
Every day, in every way
It's getting better and better
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
Beautiful boy
Darling, darling, darling
Darling Peter
Good night, Orion
See you in the morning
Bright and early"
Pentious looks down at his now sleeping sons and placed a kiss on their foreheads before falling asleep as well
