Sengoku rubbed his temples and sighed deeply, glancing up at Garp when he sat down in the chair across the desk.

"You're going to have to call him." Garp said.

"I know that but it's not good timing. He asked for time off for their honeymoon. It's not Smoker I'm worried about. Sofia is scary when pissed off. You know that Garp."

"True so is Scarlet, but deadlier. Sofia will understand when she finds out the reason he was called in."

Sengoku sighed heavily and dialed Smoker's cell to notify him of the mission.

"This better be fucking important as hell damn it." Smoker growled under his breath hopping not to wake Sofia. He slowly pulled away from her and sat up, throwing his legs over the side of the bed.

Sengoku sighed and said, "It is. He's escaped from jail again."

Smoker dragged his hand down his face and sighed heavily. He glanced back at Sofia still asleep. "Alright. I'll be there in a few."

"Very well. Come prepared with everything." Sengoku told him before hanging up the phone.

Smoker rubbed his eyes and stretched out his back. He gently tucked the blanket and comforter around Sofia and stood up. He packed his uniforms and equipement and turned on the water for a quick shower. Smoker rubbed his eyes and sighed heavily, knowing this was going to be a very long mission.

Smoker washed off and wrapped the towel around his waist before sitting back down beside Sofia. He glanced down at her and smiled softly. He gently brushed his knuckles against her cheek and stopped when Sofia stirred.

"Smokey? Why are you awake? It's two in the morning." Sofia mumbled softly.

Smoker sighed heavily and gently took her hand. Sofia gently squeezed his hand and sat up to face him better. "I've been called in."

"But you asked for time off. It's our wedding night for goodness sake."

"He's escaped."

"Oh."

"Yeah. I know tonight is about us but…"

Sofia smiled softly and rested her hands against his cheeks. "I understand. That man needs to be recaptured and taken in. If you are the only one they think can do that then go. But promise me that you'll be careful."

Smoker gently squeezed her hands and looked over her face to memorize the details. He nodded to confirm his answer and lightly kissed her forehead. He gently pulled away and got dressed in his military uniform. Sofia pilled on his shirt and walked downstairs with him. Smoker gently held her waist and kissed the top of her head.

Sofia hugged him tightly and inhaled his scent deeply. She smiled up at him and stood up on her toes to kiss him. Smoker chuckled softly and lightly kissed her back before pulling away from her. "I've got to go. I'll be sure to contact as soon as I can."

"Alright and you better. I love you."

"I love you too."

"You look so much like your daddy little one. And quiet too." Sofia softly told her month old baby boy. She smiled softly at him and continued to rock the baby boy to sleep. "I wish your daddy was home to see you."

Sofia glanced up when she heard light knocking and smiled as Scarlet poked her head in. "Hey Sofia, you might want to come downstairs with little Kuro."

Sofia tilted her head in question and followed after her sister. She stopped at the bottom and felt her breath hitch when she saw Smoker talking with Scarlet. She felt tears well up and quickly walked to Smoker when he held up his arms. She wrapped her arm around his waist tightly and pulled back when Kuro started fussing.

Smoker blinked when he saw Kuro and glanced up at Sofia in question. She smiled widely and softly said, "Smoker meet your little mini Kuro. Kuro meet your daddy."
