Alright, Christmas special of highschool days! This takes place five years after Raymond and Gideon's marriage. That's right, Zakai+Zandra are five, their other set of twins(Yes, twins again) are four. Read on, and be happy :P

**

Gideon rubbed his temples as he finished placing presents underneath the tree. When he was done he looked around the large living room of his and Raymond's new house. His loving husband came down the stairs a moment later and gaped at the amount of presents that completely filled the living room.

"When did you buy all this?" Raymond said, smiling and hugging Gideon.

Gideon laughed and said, "I've been hiding it in the shed for weeks."

"Aha!" Raymond said, "So that's why you won't let me do anything in the shed."

"Nah," Gideon said, smiling and putting a paw on Raymond's large, bloated stomach, "the reason I don't let you do anything in the shed is because you're three months pregnant. Again!"

Raymond giggled and said, "It's been four years."

"We already have four children!" Gideon exclaimed, "And we're nineteen!"

"So?" Raymond said, "Your family name is guaranteed to carry on."

"Our family name," Gideon said, smiling and kissing Raymond and then looking at the clock. "Hey it's 5:30. Our kids should be down here in three. Two. One."

And as he said one four little furry bodies bounced into the living room and blushed when they saw their parents. Gideon almost burst out laughing when he saw Zakai. "Zakai." Gideon said, his concentration completely focused on not laughing. "What are you wearing?"

Zakai blushed and tugged at the pajamas he wore. His sisters pink pajamas. "Zandra lent them to me." he said, blushing extremely, "I-I liked them. Do you want me to change?"

Gideon looked at Zandra and saw she was wearing a pair of Zakai's pajamas. Gideon looked Zakai over again and then saw the pink bow wrapped around his neck. Gideon couldn't help but laugh and Zakai blushed again and said, "Do you want me to go and change?"

"No hun," Gideon said, picking Zakai up and kissing his cheek and tightening the bow that Zakai had started to loosen. "You are the cutest thing I have ever seen."

Zandra pouted and tugged at her father's shirt and started to talk in her whining voice, "What about meee?"

Gideon laughed and picked up his daughter too and kissed her cheek. "You are both the cutest things. You all are." Gideon had added in the last part to prevent Samantha from joining in the whining. Samantha was at the stage where she would mimic her sister.

Gideon put his kids down and clapped his hands together and said, "Alright! Mom, it's your turn to play Santa."

Raymond laughed and sat down on the floor next to the tree and started to pull presents out and hand them around to the appropriate child. When all the presents had been open, and the children had been done squealing out their thank yous, Gideon and Raymond sat on the couch, Gideon with his two girls leaning against him and Raymond the two boys.

Gideon smiled at Raymond and said, "And to think, we still have to give Horen, Marty, and Garret their presents."

"Don't forget Alexandra."

*Author's note: Alexandra is Clarice and Jack's daughter *

Raymond said, smiling, "and of course we promised Wyatt and Dylan something special considering they're both eighteen now."

Gideon reached into his pocket and smiled and jingled the small plastic bag with keys in it. "They should be pretty happy with their presents."

Raymond giggled and said, "We spent so much money on them it's not even funny."

Gideon laughed and said, "Yeah, that's true. Of course, we also bought something for Clarice, and Jack, and my mom, and your mom, and my dad, and Dean, Paulie, Kevin, Xatrin, Jasmine."

"And just about everyone else we know." Raymond said, giggling quietly.

Gideon shrugged and said, "Well, 'tis the season to be jolly. And by god we made those people jolly when I pulled my wallet out."

Raymond giggled and said, "That is definitely true."

Gideon sighed as he looked around the room and the down at his children and picked the two girls up and carried Samantha to her room then Zandra to hers. Then did the same for George and Zakai, the two sets of twins shared rooms with their opposite twin, then went back to the living room and started cleaning up, sorting the toys and clothes depending on the kid and then moved them to the right rooms. When the living room was clean he sighed and stretched before he and Raymond started to work on their part of the family dinner for that night.

He heard a knock at the door and said, "Hmm, I wonder who that could be. I doubt it's two eighteen year old boys as eager for their presents as our four and five year olds were."

Raymond laughed and said, "Yeah. Most likely not."

Gideon chuckled and walked to the door and opened it and Wyatt and Dylan walked in, shivering their butts off. "God! It's f-freezing out there." Wyatt said, shivering. His voice had deepened, a lot, and he could almost look into Gideon's eyes without tilting his head back. Dylan looked almost the same, except for his height gain and instead of losing baby fat, he had gained it, making everything about him look more plump than it used too.

Gideon laughed and said, "No duh, now, be quiet, my babies are sleeping."

"Oh, sorry." Wyatt said, his ears flicking back onto his head then back up. "So! What did you get us?"

"Well first," Gideon said, reaching into his pocket and pulling out two strips of cloth which he used to blindfold them. "Now," he said, grabbing their paws and pulling them towards the garage. He opened the door and pulled them down the steps and grinned and shook his head at the two brand new cars that were sitting there. The newest model of Mustang and a new Camero.

The mustang was green, with red racing stripes going down the front and back and on the roof and on the sides had flame vinyls going down the sides. The Camero was black, it's shiny color only disrupted by the red flames on the side.

"Alright!" Gideon said, "Hold out your paws, and say, "Pretty please can we have our presents."

They both sighed and said, "Pretty please can we have our present," holding out their paws as they did so. Gideon grinned and got the keys silently out of his pocket and dropped one into each of their hands. When they tore the blind folds off and saw the cars they turned to Gideon and their jaws dropped open in complete shock. "Holy hell!" Wyatt exclaimed, "You bought us both new cars?"

"Yes we did," Raymond said from the doorway. "And you better be damn happy we did. Expensive as hell those were."

Wyatt giggled and said, "Which one is who's?"

"The mustang is yours, Wyatt, and Dylan gets the pretty black Camero. Of course, you guys could use either one, it really doesn't matter. Just make sure to get insurance ASAP."

Wyatt hugged Gideon and said, "You are literally the best big brother anyone could ever have. Ever. At all. There will never be a better big brother."

Gideon laughed and noogie'd the fox. "How bout now?" he said.

"Nope, no one can beat you still." Wyatt said, giggling as he got into the new car just to feel how it felt.

"Yeah," Gideon said, "that's why we're feeding your fat butts too, because it's more than likely that you skipped breakfast to walk over here so fast."

Wyatt blushed as his stomach grumbled. "Yeah, we did."

"And then afterward you can help me pack the family's presents into the car." Gideon said.

Wyatt groaned and said, "Why can't Raymond help you?"

"Because Raymond is three months pregnant and probably feels horrible this morning. Don't ya hun?" Gideon said, walking into the very nice, and large, kitchen, where Raymond was working on their part of that nights dinner and there breakfast.

"Yeah, I feel absolutely horrible." Raymond said, rubbing a paw absentmindedly down his belly as he flipped the pancakes. Wyatt sighed and said, "Fine, whatever. I guess we can after you bought us cars."

Gideon laughed and said, "Yeah. Keeping the kids from blabbing their mouths about them was hard. By the way, which ever one of you drives the Mustang first has to stay here."

"Why?" Wyatt asked.

"Zakai wanted to ride in it over to mom's house." Gideon said, shaking his head and chuckling slightly.

"Oh, ok." Wyatt said, "Guess I will."

Gideon chuckled as he heard a door open from the hallway. "Be prepared, it's either Zakai or George, and both were incredibly excited about seeing both of you."

And sure enough, a moment later, Zakai was hugging Wyatt and Wyatt was laughing and picking his nephew up and grinning at him and said, "Did you have a good Christmas?"

"Yes!" Zakai squealed, "Best Christmas ever!"

"You say that EVERY Christmas," Dylan said, rubbing the boy's head quickly, making Zakai growl slightly. "Oho! Someone thinks they're mister tough-stuff, eh?" Dylan added in, "Growling at me."

Zakai jumped from Wyatt's arms onto Dylan and started trying to push him down. "Nope!" Dylan said, grinning wickedly at the pup, "You can't get me to go down."

Zakai sighed and slid to the floor and walked over to Raymond and said, "Mommy, is breakfast almost done?"

"Yes Zakai, breakfast is almost done. And I should slap your uncles for getting you to roughhouse before it's even noon! You guys both know how he gets when he overworks himself before eating!" Raymond said, talking about Zakai's slight issue of fainting when overworking himself on an empty stomach.

Wyatt's ears flattened and he said, "Oh, right, sorry."

Raymond pointed a finger at Wyatt and said, "Just don't do it again."

Zakai leaned against Gideon wearily and said, "Daddy, will you pick me up?"

Gideon smiled and picked his son up, rubbing his nose against the boy's neck as Zakai put his head on Gideon's shoulder. "See?" Raymond said, "He's already tired! And he just woke up!"

"Hun, they said they were sorry." Gideon said, putting a paw on Raymond's shoulder. "Just hurry up and he'll feel better." Gideon sat down with his son and smiled at Zakai and said, "How ya feeling buddy?"

"Hungry," Zakai said, yawning, "and tired."

Zakai leaned against Gideon and said, "I'm tired."

"I know kiddo," Gideon said, rubbing Zakai's shoulder, "Mommy will have breakfast done soon."

Zakai rested against his father, his eyes steadily drooping closed until Raymond set a plate of already cut pancakes down in front of him and smiled. "Eat up, pup."

Zakai giggled quietly before sitting up and pulling the pancakes closer and started eating. Raymond smiled and put a plate down in front of Gideon and Gideon smiled and said, "Thank you honey."

"You're welcome." Raymond said. Raymond looked over the other two furs sitting at the table and said, "I don't know if I should feed you. It's your fault that Zakai feels so bad now."

"We said we were sorry." Wyatt said, his ears drooping onto his head.

Raymond laughed and made three more plates, putting them down in front of the two furs. Zakai finished and burped and then blushed and said, "Excuse me."

Gideon laughed and put a paw on Zakai's stomach and pushed lightly and said, "Oomph, you're full now, aren't ya?"

"Yeah," Zakai said, smiling up at his dad, "I 'm full now."

Gideon smiled and said, "Why don't you go lie down for a little while longer. You still have a little bit before you need to get ready to go to Grandma Carol's house."

Zakai smiled and pushed his head up against his father's hand quickly before going back to his bed room. Gideon sighed and said, "They grow up so fast. I can still remember when he couldn't even walk."

Raymond smiled and put a paw on Gideon's shoulder and said, "We're getting old, hun."

"I know," Gideon sighed, "and we're only nineteen."

"Five glorious years of being together." Raymond said, smiling.

"And hopefully many more!" Wyatt said, smiling across at the table at them. When he saw their glares he said, "Sorry! It seemed like something would elevate to something sexual and we really don't want that while we're eating."

"Look at my little brother. Using big sophisticated sounding words." Gideon said, chuckling slightly and standing up and pulling his little brother into a hug and giving him a noogie. "Where did my cute, shy, innocent little brother go?"

"I was never innocent," Wyatt said, grinning as he slipped out from under Gideon's arm.

"Oh, you were innocent at one point in your life," Raymond said, chuckling, "you just can't remember it."

Wyatt laughed and said, "Just get back to working on dinner."

Raymond poked his nose and said, "You don't tell me what to do, boy. This is mah house."

"Technically it's Gideon's house." Wyatt said, grinning at Raymond.

"Well, we decided long, long ago that what was mine," Gideon said, "was most definitely Raymond's as well."

Wyatt grinned and said, "Yeah, yeah, whatever."

"I really hope this isn't how Horen acts now," Gideon said, "otherwise I may have to slap him over the side of the head."

Wyatt laughed and said, "Oh, Horen is VERY excited to see you guys."

"Well then, we'll have to leave early." Raymond said.

Gideon smiled and looked at the clock, "Well, time to get the kids up to start taking showers."

"Oh, you know George and Zakai will take a shower with you." Raymond said, "Let them sleep longer."

Gideon chuckled and said, "They will want to try out their video games before they go over."

Raymond sighed and said, "Fine, but take your shower with them. Wastes less water."

"Yes dear," Gideon said, smiling.

Raymond smiled and slapped Gideon's ass and said, "Smart ass."

Gideon smiled and walked down the hall and walked in Zakai and Zandra's room. The room was heavily decorated on both sides. Zandra's side colored pink with all the girly stuff. Dolls, doll houses, so on. Zakai's side was painted bright green, clothes littered the floor and he had a baseball glove and bat sitting against the wall. In the middle of the room there was a CD rack. Half of it was pink and had Zandra's music on it and Zakai's music was on the other side. All four of his children were very interested in music, even at this young of an age.

Gideon shook the two kids awake and smiled down at each and said, "Time to get up."

"Ok daddy," Zandra said, her muzzle opening in a yawn as she sat up.

Gideon smiled at the two grumbling kids and then picked Zakai up and he yelped slightly. "Feeling better kid?" Gideon asked as he walked across the hallway to George and Samantha's room.

"Yeah," Zakai said.

"Good, cause you, me, and your brother get to take a bath first." Gideon said, grinning at the boy.

Zakai smiled as Gideon woke George up by picking him up and then shaking Samantha with his elbow. "Time to get up." Gideon said.

"I don't want to." Samantha said, turning on her side.

"Don't make me get your sister." Gideon said. Samantha sprang out of bed and Gideon laughed and said, "You two get to take a bath next, so be ready."

Gideon walked, a pup in both arms, into the bathroom and set them both down onto the floor and then started the bath water, making sure it wasn't too hot for the pups. When he turned the two pups were already undressed and waiting to get into the water and Gideon chuckled and put both of them in and then got undressed himself, climbing in quickly to hide his privates. He didn't want to have the sex talk six or seven years early.

He grinned as the boys started to splash him and he splashed them back playfully before pulling one to him and getting some shampoo and saying, "Get ready pup, you're about to get the washing of your life."

Zakai giggled and sat back for the show as Gideon started to scrub his paw hard through George's fur, making sure it was all nice and clean and when Gideon was done, George's fur was shining and he was whining. "Daddy! I can wash myself!"

"Not right!" Gideon said, grinning at his son and reaching for Zakai and pulling him closer and saying, "Now, your turn."

Zakai whimpered and struggled against his father's arm as Gideon started to scrub his fur and start to get under the scales. Zakai went limp and whined as his father washed him nice and good. When Gideon was done Zakai scrambled away and growled slightly at his father.

Gideon laughed and then George said, "You got to wash us, we should get to wash you!"

Gideon blushed deeply at the thought of his sons washing him as thoroughly as he had washed them but sighed and said, "Fine."

They both got a wash rag and started scrubbing their father's scales clean, including under them, and they started to go lower and lower but when they were about to make it to Gideon's privates he said, "Alright boys, I can wash that part of my body myself."

They giggled and said, "Ok, daddy."

He stood up and turned away from them and washed his privates quickly then washed his legs and then sat back down in the now very soapy water. He smiled at his boys and then hugged them quickly and then got out and wrapped a towel around his waist before picking each boy up and scrubbing them dry. They whined but sat there and took it until they were dry and Gideon told them to go get dressed.

The girls were next but Gideon let them do it on their own. It wasn't weird for a guy to wash his sons but a guy washing his daughters seemed a little creepy to Gideon. Gideon got dressed then walked down the stairs and hugged Raymond from behind and said, "Once the girls are out it's your turn."

"Are the boys clean?" Raymond said.

"Yes!" Zakai whined as he walked down the stairs and hugged Raymond and looked up, a pouting face put on. "He was mean to us mommy."

"Oh, and what did the mean ol' daddy do?" Raymond said, smiling at Zakai.

"He scrubbed us!" George said as he hugged the other leg. "It hurt soo bad."

Gideon laughed and poked both of them on the top of the head, "But you're clean now, and that's all that matters."

Raymond laughed as he got down to eye level with the two pups and leaned his head forward and took a big sniff of them and murred quietly. "Coconut. He used my shampoo on you two."

Raymond glared at Gideon and he shrugged and said, "Hey, they're clean now, that is what matters."

"Yeah," Raymond said, sighing as he looked the boys over. "Wait! I forgot," Raymond picked the pink ribbon up from early and tied it back around Zakai's neck and smiled and said, "Now, that is absolutely, positively adorable."

Zakai blushed and adjusted the bow and Gideon picked him up and nuzzled his neck. "You do look adorable. Grandma will love it."

"Do you think Leo will like it?" Zakai said, blushing deeper as he mentioned his best friend. "I mean, he is coming over for dinner isn't he?"

"Yeah, he's coming, and it sounds like my boy has his first crush." Raymond said, hugging Zakai and nuzzling his neck like Gideon had, "Looks like I'll have to start getting pictures."

Zakai blushed again before pulling George into their room to start trying out the many new video games they had gotten. Raymond chuckled and got back to work.

**

When they got to Carol's house Gideon walked in to see Zakai shaking in his grandpa's arms. "What's the matter pup?" Gideon said, sitting the food he had carried inside down in the kitchen.

"Uncle Wyatt drives really, really fast." Zakai said, going from his grandfather's arms to his father's.

"Oh really? Did he scare you?" Gideon said.

"Yes." Zakai said, burying his head into his father's shoulder.

"Do you want me to beat him up for it?" Gideon said.

"Yes," Zakai said. Gideon laughed and put Zakai down then walked upstairs and towards Wyatt's room.

*Author's Note: Wyatt moved back into Carol and Ron's house because he figured that a relationship where the two people in the relationship live in separate houses was more romantic. (Which means I think it is :P) *

He walked into Wyatt's room, Zakai close behind him, and said, "Alright Wyatt, Zakai told me to beat you up."

"Why?" Wyatt said, pulling the headphones he had on off his head.

"Because you scared him," Gideon said, pinning Wyatt down against the desk then picking him up, struggling slightly, and then pinning him down to his bed. "But since I can't physically hurt you without mom being angry, I'm just going to tickle you until you turn purple."

"No!" Wyatt yelped as Gideon's paws started to rub up and down his ticklish spots, making him giggle before Gideon really started tickling him, his paws a blur as he tickled Wyatt and he grinned as Wyatt tried to kick him but couldn't because Gideon had his knees on Wyatt's legs.

"Zakai," Gideon said, stopping his tickling, "do you want to tickle him?"

"Yes!" Zakai squealed, crawling onto the bed and tickling his uncle. Wyatt started laughing again until he was gasping for breath, which was when Zakai finally stopped. Wyatt panted and when Gideon got off of him he pinned his nephew to the bed and said, "Payback time."

Zakai started squealing as Wyatt tickled him and when Gideon pulled Wyatt off of Zakai and picked his boy up, Zakai was panting heavily. He heard a little voice from the doorway and Gideon turned to see a small fox in the doorway. "Leo!" Zakai squealed, jumping from his father's arms and running to hug the little fox.

Leo blushed and said, "Zakai! You're embarrassing me!"

Zakai giggled and pulled back and said, "How do you think I look?"

"I think you look pretty," Leo said, blushing.

Zakai giggled as Wyatt put a movie in. "A classic." Wyatt said with a grin, as he showed me the case to "Dr Seuss's How a Grinch Stole Christmas."

Zakai crawled up onto the bed and Leo crawled up next to him and they leaned against each other as the movie started. Gideon sat down in the computer chair and Wyatt sat down on the other side of the bed. Eventually Gideon heard a soft snoring and looked to see Zakai and Leo sleeping, leaning against each other with their arms wrapped around each other.

Gideon smiled as they sank down onto the bed so they were laying together and hugging like he and Raymond did on a nightly basis. Gideon took his phone out of his pocket and started taking pictures. They started shifting in their sleep until Zakai was holding Leo around his middle and Leo was pressed tightly against Zakai. Gideon smiled and said, "Aww! How cute." He took another picture before walking downstairs and forcefully dragging Raymond and Leo's mom, Tracy, up to Wyatt's room.

They both grinned and Raymond said, "That is the cutest damn thing I have ever seen."

Tracy laughed and said, "I have to agree. Even my older son hasn't done anything as cute as that before, and he's ten now."

Zakai's leg started kicking and Tracy laughed and said, "Does he always do that in his sleep."

Wyatt was watching the boys and when she said that he said, "Yeah, the last time I watched the kids he had a nightmare and slept with me and he kicked me in my privates. Almost woke the entire neighborhood."

Tracy started laughing and Gideon heard excited squealing from downstairs and walked downstairs to see Dean and Paulie with Jasmine and Clarice and Jack with Alexandra standing downstairs. Zandra and Jasmine were sitting on the couch, sitting very close together, with Alexandra sitting against Jack, looking around at all the people. Gideon remembered who shy she was.

He picked her present up from where he had placed them and said, "Here ya go Alexandra."

Alexandra took it hesitantly and then started tearing the paper open and when she saw the doll inside she squealed and hugged Gideon and said, "Thank you Uncle Gideon."

"You're welcome Alexandra." Gideon said, turning to Clarice as he did so, "Heard from Alec?"

"No," Clarice said with a sigh, "they're gone again, visiting Charlie's parents in Iowa."

"Figures," Gideon said with a sigh, "Zakai was looking forward to talking to Alex."

"Zakai looks forward to everything," Clarice said.

Gideon laughed and walked over to Dean and Paulie and put an arm around both of them, "How's it going?"

They jumped and then laughed and said, "It's going good." They sat watching Zandra and Jasmine poke and tickle each other for a little bit before walking into the kitchen and sitting with the rest of the older people.

Gideon sighed and said, "It seems like yesterday our squealing children were babies."

Dean laughed and said, "Yeah, it does. They do grow up fast."

Paulie sighed and said, "Shut up, you're going to make me feel old."

Gideon patted her back and said, "You are old."

Paulie slapped him and said, "No I'm not."

"Yes you are," Gideon said, plucking at a strand of fur, "You even have gray fur."

"Where?" Paulie said, looking at her body fearfully.

"I was kidding," Gideon said, laughing.

Paulie slapped him once, twice, and then three times. Gideon laughed each time and said, "Alright, alright, I get it, you're mad at me."

"Dinner's done!" Carol yelled from the kitchen.

Gideon walked upstairs and knocked on Wyatt's door before walking in and stopping in shock. Sitting on the bed, were Zakai and Leo, their lips pressed together. Gideon could tell it wasn't that bad, it was just their lips touching lightly.

Wyatt was asleep in the chair and when Gideon pulled the two boys apart and then shook Wyatt awake Gideon slapped him over the side of the head, "Good job keeping an eye on them."

Wyatt blushed and said, "Sorry, what were they doing."

"Kissing," Gideon said.

Zakai whimpered slightly and said, "Did we do something wrong daddy?"

"No," Gideon said, turning back to them and sitting down on the bed with a sigh and said, "listen, boys, what you were doing, wasn't necessarily wrong, but some people wouldn't approve of it. And I don't think that you should be kissing at your age anyways."

Zakai's ears flicked back onto his head and then said, "Alright daddy."

"Now, listen," Gideon said, "if you two do that again, promise me that you won't do in front of Leo's daddy. He might not approve of it."

"Ok," Leo said, "promise."

Gideon put a paw on both of their shoulders and said, "Dinner time. Come on."

Zakai and Leo followed Gideon downstairs, Zakai's ears still flicking onto his head and then back up. When they all sat down at the table and Gideon said the prayer they started eating slowly, talking among themselves and laughing, enjoying the food. When the food was eaten, and the presents had been opened and everyone was starting to clear out, Gideon picked Zakai and George up, who were sleeping against Raymond's sides, and Zandra and Samantha followed him out to the car.

Gideon smiled at Raymond after getting into the driver's seat. "Love you honey," Gideon said, smiling.

"I love you too." Raymond said.

"You know," Gideon said, starting up the car and sighing, "I feel really bad about taking that job in Florida."

"Why?" Raymond said.

Gideon looked back at Zakai, who was sleeping peacefully in his booster seat. "Because Zakai and Leo would have made a great couple."

Raymond smiled and said, "I know, but we can't help it. Your job is moving and we have to go with it or not have enough money to support our kids."

Gideon sighed and said, "Yeah, I know. I still can't help regretting it."

"I know hun," Raymond said, smiling, "but it'll work out. Love always finds a way."

Gideon smiled as he pulled into the driveway of their house. "Yeah," Gideon said, "love always finds a way."

Well, feedback :)
