dawn_is_breaking | RP with Scott Lang

Once upon a time Dawn thought that she would never have a family of her own, that it was just a useless dream, especially after everything that happened with Hank. She assumed that her one chance to leave the vigilante business and start a family had died with him.

But that all changed when she met Scott.

The connection they made was out of the blue but so strong that after only a couple of months she knew she had fallen in love and that she was being given another chance. Scott was already a father and even though she hadn't witnessed his parenting skills first hand she only had to look at his daughter Cassie to know that he was good at it.

As it turns out, Scott wasn't just good at being a father, he was great at it. So great that the two of them decided to have not just one child together but two. Marie, named after Dawn's mother and now little baby Henry, named after Scott's mentor, Hank Pym.

Dawn never knew that she could feel such absolute love and happiness but she did anytime that she looked at her children or at Scott. Of course, she also learned that she never knew she could also feel such absolute exhaustion. Taking care of two kids was a 24 hour deal and sometimes your tank ran on empty, such as today, when after taking Marie and Henry to the park she had come home and had made the mistake of sitting down on the couch.
Just for a second.
But it was long enough for things to set in and all three of them had fallen fast asleep.

It was still so hard to believe that his life had taken such a turn after meeting Dawn. He'd always been one to sort of fall face first into things, be it relationships or superhero-ing. But there was something about Dawn that felt so different from the moment he laid eyes on her at that party he knew he wanted to get to know her and the longer they were together the more he realized that they could be so much more. Something he thought he too had lost out on the chance to have.

But Dawn made it feel all too real again and then when she had said they were pregnant with their first Scott was over the moon. It felt like a chance to do things right, to do things better. He'd given Cassie the world, but he'd also missed a lot of it for one reason or another. So to be able to meet someone that truly meant the world, and get a chance to be a dad again he'd truly never been happier. Especially when she said they were having another. It had been a couple months ago now, but the feeling was still so bright and happy that each and every day he came home it felt new all over again. It put him in such a mood every single day that he found himself leaving work a little earlier and earlier each day.

One of the benefits of being your own boss he supposed. Especially when it came to the weekend.

So as he waltzed into the house a early afternoon he was expecting to be greeted by Marie his little bundle of energy fully ready to take both kids off Dawns hands so that she could have a little 'Me' time. But when he came into the house and found it quiet he found himself concerned, especially after a call or two didn't receive any response he implemented a hurried search, all the worst things floating through his mind, only to find all three curled onto the couch.

He let out a breath of relief a broad smile gracing his lips as he reached into his phone and snapped a few pictures of his precious sleeping family before tootling off and deciding he'll give them some time and prep dinner in the interim because if there is one thing you don't do, it's wake a sleeping baby or mother.

It's at least an hour or so later once he has dinner set and in the oven that he'll come back and place a hand lightly on Dawns back, rubbing small circles there until she eases her back to the waking world. "Hey sunshine."

Miraculously Dawn and both children sleep soundly until Scott has finished getting dinner in the oven and only when he touches her back gently does she start to wake.

"Scott?" She asks, her dark brown eyes opening slowly and when she sees him looking down at her she smiles. She can feel the weight of Marie, still dead asleep, against her thigh and Henry makes a small noise at hearing them speak but thankfully doesn't start to cry.

"You're home early, aren't you?"

From:

pissant

Her hazy half asleep state does things to him and he can't help but kiss her forehead. "Mmmm... I started dinner. I'm gonna go put Henry down, I just didn't want you to get freaked out if you woke up and he wasn't next to you."

He brushes some of her hair out of her face thumbing at her cheek before gently coming down and scooping Henry. Careful not to jostle him too much. He stirs but the park took enough out of him that he stays sleeping in Scotts arm, even despite a kiss or two before walking him down to his room settling him into his crib before making his way back out.

"Well I was gonna give you some me time but I see you had a bit. You want to go lay down for real or...?" He offers.

From:

dawn_is_breaking

"I appreciate that, thank you."

Especially considering she didn't even mean to fall asleep in the first place and just as her half asleep state does things to him seeing Scott hold and kiss their son does so many things to her. It makes her heart swell, her emotions sing and her ovaries swoon.

When he comes back into the living room Dawn is slowly extracting herself out from under Marie who mutters in her sleep but then rolls over and goes back to sleep.

"I really shouldn't, otherwise I won't sleep at all tonight." She says softly and motions towards their back patio.

"How about some tea out on the patio instead? You can tell me about your day."

From:

pissant

"Of course my love. Just wanted to start the weekend off right." He smiles waiting for her to slip her way out from Marie's sleeping form before reaching out for her hand and pulling her towards him. Placing a kiss to her lips before nodding. "I'll 'put the kettle on' as the brits say." He laughs rubbing the small of her back for a moment as before breaking away to go start up the electric kettle.

After a few minutes he comes in with a couple of cups of tea. Just they way the both like them. "Here you are love, and forget my day. All I did was work on three different quotes, I wanna know what you and the kids got up to. That's all I thought about all day. Was Henry good today?"

From:

dawn_is_breaking

She chuckles and kisses him back and while he goes to make the tea she gently drapes the blanket she knitted last winter over Marie, leaning down to kiss her daughter's forehead before going to join Scott.

When he arrives with the tea she leads them out the back door and onto the back patio which overlooks her vegetable and rose garden.

"Henry was good, mostly." She says as she eases herself down into her chair. "Although this morning he was a bit fussy but Marie played peek-a-boo with him and after that he seemed better. We cleaned up the playroom, had lunch and then went to the park."

She pauses to have a sip of tea and then adds, "There was an old man at the park with a Saint Bernard that both the kids wanted to pet. He was a very nice dog but I won't lie and say that I didn't have a minor heart attack when I saw how small they both seemed in comparison."

pissant

"So you guys were so busy. No wonder you guys are beat." He says as he follows her into the backyard to settle on the small patio there. It might not be the biggest back yard in the world but Dawn has turned their little city yard into an oasis. Raised beds and arches of veggies and flowers hiding them away from the peeping eyes of neighbors. It's a paradise but the biggest reason it is, is because she is there making it so. He waits for her to settle and then scoots a chair from the other side of the small little table in the center closer to her settling in to listen to their day.

"Oh yeah? How am I not surprised. If there's a dog, she's just got to pet it." It had been her new favorite pastime lately certainly. He chuckles softly. "Also I'm sure Henry was the size of that things paw!"

From:

dawn_is_breaking

"I meant to only sit down for five minutes and then I was going to do some crafts with Marie but that couch is so soft I guess it just sort of grabbed all three of us up in it's cozy clutches." She says with a smile and when he moves closer she reaches over across the chairs and takes his hand in hers.

"I bet you any money that when she wakes up she's going to start asking you if we can get a puppy." She warns him.

From:

pissant

"It is a bit of a man eater." He smiles taking her hand in his and giving it a full squeeze. "But I was able to take a pretty cute picture. So worth it."

At the mention of her wanting a puppy he pops a brow up with a playful snort. "Oh, was that your trip home then?"

From:

dawn_is_breaking

"Oh you did, did you?" She asks with a grin, knowing that Scott's phone is full of photos of her and the kids. "You'll have to show me later."

Dawn chuckles, "Pretty much. She went between asking for a puppy to then telling me all the reasons why we should get one."

From:

pissant

"Always." His phone was absolutely heaving. Especially since Henry had been born. He loved his girls of course still actively being a part of Cassie's life, despite her being in college now, and Marie's sassy intelligence which was so much like her mother already, but he was admittedly very excited when he got a son under his belt.

"Did she now? And just what did mom have to say about all her reasonings" He inquired giving her a bit of an eyebrow waggle.

From:

dawn_is_breaking

"I told her that a puppy or any kind of pet is a big responsibility and that we'd have to make sure she's ready for that before getting one." Dawn says and has a sip of her tea.

"I also mentioned that Henry should be a bit older before we get a puppy so that should buy us a year or two."

From:

pissant

"And just how did our little nugget take that?" He can only imagine, while a smart and loving little girl she can be a little feisty when it comes to being told something she doesn't like. He'd be a liar if he said he didn't love it tremendously. But he agrees with Dawn. While it probably would be fine if they got a family friendly dog like a Golden or something he still would feel uncomfortable with Henry being so small around a dog in the house. Plus he likes caged pets a little better admittedly. Hank might be gone but he still has his tree frog friends, and they're a lot easier to manage than a dog.

But something tells him Marie won't let it go. She's an elephant in that sense, something she does not get from him. Though it does raise a good point;

"Have you ever had a dog before?" Honestly they had never talked about pets before. He supposed that now that Marie was old enough to understand what they were it was about time.

From:

dawn_is_breaking

It's true that a lot of Marie's stubborn sensibility comes from her mother, something that will no doubt cause issues when she gets older and really starts to push back on things. Luckily Dawn has grown slightly less stubborn since having kids because you really have to be as flexible as possible if you want to stay sane.

"She pouted a little and said she was going to ask you about it to see if we were on the same page." She says with a smile and then shakes her head.

"No, growing up we never had pets because of my father. It was bad enough that he would hurt us but if he had hurt an animal it would have destroyed my sister, she loves animals."

From:

pissant

You just have to be. Scott is used to it in a way now, the teenager thing had been a new experience but admittedly but they've made their peace, thankfully and doing it over again didn't scare him.

It excited him.

Things were different but so similar. He absolutely relished in being a dad again, especially with Dawn at his side. "Mom said no, so now I'll ask dad?" He chuckles giving her hand a squeeze. "Ahh... So that's where Marie gets it from huh? Her aunt." He reaches out to brush stray strands from her face, still somewhat tossed from her nap. "Dad agrees with Mom though. Not until Henry is older. Wont she be disappointed... We'll have to distract her by doing something special tomorrow."

From:

dawn_is_breaking

The way he touches her hair is always so gentle and her smile grows, "I'm glad you agree. I'm open to the idea of a dog but I'd prefer it when Henry is bigger and I have more time to take it for walks."

Because juggling a newborn, a little girl and a dog would be too much.

"Also I'm sure she won't be too disappointed so long as you play Ponies with her tonight."

[ooc: Sooo I'm a big dork and I made a couple of Dawn/Scott icons because they're so damn cute. If you want to see or steal them from me let me know and I'll send you a link.]

From:

pissant

"Amen to that. When things get a little more normal, well as normal as they can be dressed up in supersuits with two kids." Because as much as their little family had grown and their lives had changed some things never would.

Including happily playing with his kids.

He smiles taking a good long sip of his tea before settling in some beside her teasing her leg with his foot. "Right after I get a faceful of Henry while you get a good meal in you. I have been looking forwards to it all day. I can't tell you how hard it was to put him down just now."

[ooc: Awww really! that's so cool! I can't make shit for icons it's why I get other people to do it for me LOL I am so curious!]

From:

dawn_is_breaking

"And I can't tell you how hard it was to not have my heart explode from happiness watching you hold him." She says, rubbing his foot back with her own.

"Have I mentioned lately how amazing of a father you are?"

[ooc: I love making icons, which is good because there's not a lot of Dawn ones out there so I've had to make 90% of mine.
Cute icon #1
Cute icon #2

From:

pissant

"Mmm... Yes say more nice things about me. But honestly, I think it's the mom that makes this family." He only gets to be amazing because of her and he hopes she knows that.

"But I know more than most you do not wake 'em up when they're like this." He holds up his mug in salute. He put hers in a cup, of course. After all this time he certainly knows just how she likes it, in many ways.

"To a quiet moment, just the two of us."

[ooc: OHMYGOD THOSE ARE SO CUTE I AM 100% stealing them they're amazing! if you want some cash for em too lemme know! srsly i am blown away SOOO FUCKING CUTE]

From:

dawn_is_breaking

She smiles at his praise, her cheeks going a very faint pink because even after all this time he can still make her blush.

"Like I've always said, you're a genius, Scott Lang." She says and holds up her teacup in a similar salute.

"To quiet moments, just the two of us."

She sips her tea and leans back in her chair a little, a smile still on her lips. "So what's for dinner?"

[ooc: Yaay so glad you like, and no cash necessary. Just give credit and enjoy!! <3 ]

From:

pissant

"One of the many amazing reasons I love you." He smiles contentedly. Watching as she relaxes into the warm afternoon sun. "We're amazing though, together. Not just me. You're the strongest women I know Dawn Granger."

When she inquired about what he's made he smiles. "Moussaka with a side of tabbouleh, made with ingredients from our own garden." Scott still very much loved to cook, and thankfully because he often cooked so many different things Marie was not a fussy child. Especially when it came to fresh veg, unlike most kids. It was important to him to cook for them, not wanting either one to grow up on a steady diet of hungry man dinners like he had. It's something he wished he'd done more of raising Cassie.

[ooc: aww well if you change your mind lemme know i like to be fair when artists work hard on something i can use!
They are literally the cutest thing in the world i died~ you're really good!

Dawn leans her head back and moans, "Ohhhhh moussaka! Damn you, you know how much I love your moussaka. Now I'm going to have to work out even more tomorrow to get the weight off."

She's teasing of course, even after having Henry, Dawn's body is still well toned and in shape.

[ooc: aw that's sweet of you but I do photo mainp icons for pure fun and joy and because I enjoy the pairing <3 ]

From:

pissant

That's because they certainly exercised together at every stage of the pregnancy. Before and after Scott couldn't keep his hands off, as usual. But every part of him loved all of her. In any way, shape, or form.

"Mmm I am a cruel, cruel man. But you can take the pass tomorrow and go to the gym and take a personal hour. I'll tire the kids out so by the time you get home they'll have their morning nap." He smiles tapping at her calf. "And then I can help you clean up, after I fully enjoy your post workout self..."

From:

dawn_is_breaking

Dawn chuckles, "So that's what gets you going hrm? Seeing me in a sports bra and tights, all sweaty and disheveled from a workout?"

From:

pissant

"Oh yeah. Seeing you after a nice work out. All still sticky with sweat, hair all apart. It does get me going." A chuckle, amongst other things.

"I mean half of the reason Henry is here is because of the night in July when you came back from that club we busted up. Hotter than a witches tit even at 2 in the morning. I had to peal you out of your suit piece by piece." Thinking of that sends a bit of a shiver down his spine and causes a broad smile to dance across his lips, he remembers the night fondly.
