"Sure, if you want to, I think it's a lovely idea." Apollo tells him, with a smile giving him a light kiss on the lips even though he hadn't really bonded with Gabriel's sisters if it was what Gabriel wanted he wouldn't deny him the comfort of naming his child after his sister and the idea of naming his children after Gabe's sister didn't fill him with horror it actually felt good to do something for his loves dead sister even if she never knew about it, it would make Gabe and also Apollo feel better. "I like the name Phryne. How about Peyton for the other girl, I think the names work together Phryne and Payton. It rolls of the tongue I think." He says stroking Gabe's hair with a grin. "Really I don't really mind about naming them after her."

Gabe smiled and kissed him softly. "I like Payton. With any luck Phryne wont turn out as rebellious as her namesake", he replied. He remember how difficult his sister had been but it had been apart of who she was and he had in the end respected that. He sat in his husbands arm for a while longer before his stomach grumbled for his attention. He didn't want to get up this yet but he knew he should. "So about those hamburgers....", he said with a small smirk on his face as he looked at Apollo and got to his feet, leading the way out of the room. He walked into the kitchen and pulled the salad from the fridge and grabbing sauces and also chocolate topping.

"I'm hopeful too, it would be better if she wasn't like that." He tells him with a grin. Apollo crinkled his nose in distaste at the chocolate sauce he placed on the bench he would never get used to Gabe's cravings. He pulled out the meat patties and the buns placing them on the bench for Gabe before grabbing a plate for himself and Gabe. He also grabbed some juice and cups filling them before placing them on the table. He walked back over to Gabe wrapping an arm around him and kissing his neck. "I love you." He tells him with a smile before starting to make his burger up.

Gabe smiled, "I get a feeling our hope is in vain though", he replied with a small sigh, the smile gone from his face. He really would miss his sister. He pushed the thought away as tears stung his eyes again. He had a lot to be happy about to, he thought, his hand moving to rest on his stomach again. Apollo kiss on his neck brought him out of his thoughts and a small smile crossed his face, "I love you too, Pollo." He grabbed a bun and placed a meat patty on it with the cheese and salad and put bbq and chocolate sauce on it before moving over to the table. "I really do wonder where the kids are. They usually aren't out this late."

"Ahh leave them be, they'll come in when they are hungry." He tells him kissing the top of his head before he dug into his meal. He ate his first burger before making another one and eating that one more slowly. He eventually paused in eating to just watch Gabriel. It wasn't often that he paused to watch him but it felt right to do it now. Gabriel was amazing, so caring and compassionate, warm and loving and he really did not know how he got so lucky as to catch him. Apollo promised himself that he would do everything in his power to keep Gabe, because he was the best thing that had ever happened to him and he would be lost without him.

Gabe nodded, knowing Apollo was probably right. The kids would be home when they where ready and not before. Gabe slowly ate his burger and munched on a pickle that he had placed on his plate as well, occasionally dipping it in chocolate sauce. He felt like his day had been a roller coaster and in some ways he just wanted to over and to start a new day tomorrow. He finished the burger and the last of his glass of juice. He shifted to sit in Apollo's lap, just wanting to be close to him for a while, "Want to watch a movie?", he asked him. He knew it would take him a while to sleep and hoped that it would help him.

"Sure love whatever you want." He tells him with a smile, finishing the last of his burger he stood carefully Gabriel safely held in his arms as he took him to the living room so they could start to watch a movie. "What type of movie do you want to watch love? I'm good with whatever you want to watch, you have good taste after all you married me didn't you?" He asked with a cheeky grin, settling them onto the sofa he kept Gabriel in his lap his arms wrapped around him tightly hoping to make him feel better, he knew how hard it was to loose anyone you cared about. He grabbed the trow from the back of the couch and draped that over them as he waited for Gabriel's reply.

Gabriel snuggled into Apollo's arms. He still questioned how he had been so lucky to end up with him when he joined camp. He remembered how useless he had been and how many times the god have saved him. Apollo was his knight in shining armour. Apollo's joke brought a slight smile to his face he shifted in his lap to kiss him before settling down again. "I love you, Apollo and my question has always been why you let me. Though I did need a knight to rescue me. How about Man of Steel?", Gabe had loved superheroes as a child. When he found out he was a demigod he had been exited cause he had practically become one of his idols.

"Man of Steel sounds perfect." Apollo tells him giving him a kiss back before using his powers to make some popcorn and put the movie on so they could start watching it. He also grabbed them drinks with his powers he loved being a god and misusing his powers like this, it was better then getting up and having to remove Gabe from his arms, he could think of nothing worse at the moment then having to let go of Gabe. "I love you." He says softly almost to himself before kissing the side of Gabe's forehead grabbing some popcorn he settled down to watch the movie. His hand running up and down Gabe's side absently as he watched, feeling the need to touch his husband.

Gabriel settled into Apollo's arms as the movie started. He was glad that neither of them had to move to do it as the only thing he really wanted in that moment was his husband's arms around him. He felt Apollo's hands rub his side but he kept his attention on the screen. "I love you Apollo", he muttered sleepily about half way through the movie. It wasn't that much longer after that he drifted off to sleep. His dreams where troubled that night but it was Apollo's presence beside him that kept him from having nightmares. There was certainly enough of those that he could have.

Apollo kept his arms around Gabe stroking his hand through his hair distractedly watching TV it wasn't the best movie but he didn't mind it it was a little interesting and that's all he needed he was much more interested in the feeling of comfort of sitting there with Gabe. He started yawning halfway through the movie before slowly falling asleep. Dreaming of two daughters running around in his dream Gail and Dakota loved doting on the kids spoiling them rotten. He woke again when the credits started to roll on the movie he yawned again using his power to turn off the tv before moving them to their bed which was way more comfortable than the couch he wrapped his arms around Gabe again and fell asleep.

Gabe didn't wake until the next morning and tried to not disturb Apollo as he got out of the bed. He wasn't sure when they had got there but he figured that Apollo hadn't wanted to wake him. He showered and tried to put away the bitterness in what he had learned the night before. A smile came to his face as he thought about the good that had come. About the little girls that would make their lives perfect. He made his way to the kitchen, with that smile still on his face, and set around making breakfast for both him and Apollo.

Apollo woke when he reached out for Gabriel and he wasn't there. He sat up and looked around sleepily before realising that he could smell breakfast cooking so he had a quick shower before walking out and wrapping his arms around him before resting his chin on his shoulder before kissing his neck. "Morning. How are you feeling?" He asked him before resting a hand on his stomach. He hoped that he wasn't overwhelming him but he couldn't help himself but want to be close Gabriel, he was always extra touchy when Gabe was pregnant but he didn't know if it would be welcomed Gabriel after last night because of his loosing Phryne.

Gabriel turned in Apollo's arms, resting his head on his husbands shoulder. "Both miserable and happy", he admitted. "It feels wrong to be happy after hearing about my sisters death but it helps that I know that she would have been happy to hear that news as well." Either way, Gabriel knew that he couldn't let his health suffer. Even if it wasn't for him really that he was going it, but for his daughters. In normal circumstances, Gabriel might have been overwhelmed by all the touching and hormounes in his system, but with the loss of his sister still fresh in his mind, the touch was more comforting then anything else.

Apollo pressed a kiss to his temple. "I'm sorry." He tells him knowing that it wasn't his fault but he didn't know what else to say he had never lost a sister but he knew he would be devastated if he lost Artemis. He was at a loss for words he was never the best at words but he wanted to comfort Gabriel. "I'm sure she's looking up at us and is happy that we are naming one of the girls after her and I'm sure she's wishing that one if not both of them inherit her talent." He finally says after thinking about what to say hoping that it was the right thing because he didn't want to add to his grief.
