“Thank you, love you.” Magda sighed again but smiling weakly, she adored her boys. One of the other waitresses dropped off a class of water for Magda while she waited for Buck to show up. Luckily the diner wasn’t especially busy anymore, the sounds and smells calming down some so Magda was able to get her bearings again. |

"Love you more." Buck smiled and clicked to hang up before immediately scrolling to find Ezra's number in his phone. He hit the call button as he entered the bodega and made a beeline for the chips and crackers shelf. He grabbed a sleeve of saltines that must have belonged to a package but was priced for its individual sale with a price tag peeling off it even as he handled it. As the phone continued to ring he went to the cooler and grabbed a 7UP and then went to the shelf where little packs of various medicines was set up. As he eyeballed the medicines, his eyes kept slipping to the dusty looking pregnancy test boxes.
He wondered...was this an ordinary stomach bug or was Magda pregnant again? _________________ Butts n' butts n' butts n' butts. |

After a couple of rings, Ezra answered, tucking the phone between his ear and shoulder. While he was continuing to have a tender and peaceful night with Eloise, dragging his index finger lightly down her nose to soothe and encourage sleep, his boyfriend wasn’t likely to get that same tenderness.
“You can’t call me about every vegan hot dog stand you see.” He answered. |

"If you keep up with your attitude, it'll wear off on Eloise." Buck playfully scolded before grabbing up a box of anti-nausea medicine as well as a pregnancy test as an extra precaution. "Mags is coming home early. She's got an upset stomach and she's being sent home." He explained as he went up to the register to pay. _________________ Butts n' butts n' butts n' butts. |

“Upset stomach?” Ezra immediately quirked a brow. Ezra was no stranger to how things went down in their bedroom, especially since he was an active participant. “Hm, maybe she’s pregnant again.” Ezra posed somewhat nonchalantly. |

"I mean, I was kind of thinking the same thing." Buck said with a little shrug for no one but himself. He paid the worker and took the bag of things once it was offered to him. "But, I mean, if she was...who do you think did the dang thing?" He asked, leaving the bodega then. _________________ Butts n' butts n' butts n' butts. |

“You.” Ezra said so quickly, Buck had barely finished his sentence. “I mean I’d be surprised if it were me, like it’s gotta be you.” Ezra added, standing up carefully as he cradled a sleeping Eloise. |

"Me?" Buck asked, incredulous even though it certainly was in the realm of possibility. "Your pull out is just as bad as mine when we nix the condoms." _________________ Butts n' butts n' butts n' butts. |

“Hold on.” Ezra said before literally allowing the phone to drop on the couch. He crept almost comically into the community bedroom to put Eloise down. He tiptoed out and carefully shut the door behind him before racing over to snatch the phone back up.
“Excuse me, I’m not even in there as much as you.” Ezra ‘yelled’ in a hushed whisper so not to wake Eloise. “You could make eclairs professionally if you wanted to. Big ones.” |

"What does making eclairs have to-oh." Buck began, but quickly put it together. "I'm flattered, but that's not entirely true! I know for a fact you two do it when I'm not there. The evidence is in the pie, Ezra Khiev-Benedito. Literally. I've seen it." _________________ Butts n' butts n' butts n' butts. |

“You’ve seen it? When you’re not even there-okay, okay, we’ll see whose pie it is when the pie has red hair and antlers.” Ezra argued, before reeling it back in. “You make me so crazy, I will get Mags heat lamp ready and see you back at home.” Ezra grumbled. |

"Thank you. Love you too." Buck said, a cheeky little grin on his face as he clicked to end the call. As soon as he tucked his phone into his pants pocket, he went ahead and clutched his bodega bag close and used his magic to blip to the diner where Magda worked. Even though his magic wasn't as defined as others, he still managed to appear in a bright flash of light right outside the diner, narrowly missing a young couple. "Sorry, sorry." He apologized before heading in to find Magda. _________________ Butts n' butts n' butts n' butts. |

The characteristic flash of light was not unfamiliar to Magda. She saw it fill the dinner and fade away fast before she could turn around.
“Did you get lost?” Magda pouted weakly when she saw Buck. She didn’t look great, Magda usually was a very confident and done up. She enjoyed dressing up and doing her makeup and the way it made her feel, and she did do that today. But she just looked, sort of wilted, like a plant that’s had too much sun. Her her pallet was usually that of muted and sage greens, but she looked much whiter than usual. The only other time she had looked like this was when she was pregnant with Eloise, which wasn’t a very distant memory. |

"Sorry, stopped by the bodega and called your rude boyfriend." Buck joked lightly, though his expression was that of concern as he approached her. He cupped her face with both of his palms, the bag hanging around his wrist, and used his magic to warm her cheeks a bit. He leaned forward to peck a soft kiss at her forehead. "Let's get you home, Mama." _________________ Butts n' butts n' butts n' butts. |

Magda allowed herself to slump into Bucks side, sneaking an arm around his waist for support. Ever the trooper though, she still made the trek home in her five inch heels without stumbling, though she relied heavily on Bucks support and keeping her upright. She almost made it the whole way without getting sick again, but in the end, Magda got sick in the alley behind their building. While her bed was practically in her sights, she was beat, Buck pretty much needing to carry her the rest of the way. |
