Sherlock held Thomas tight with one arm while he unlocked the door with the other. It was strange, coming into a totally quiet house. For the few months that they had been there, it had been a cacophony of them and William and Martha and Mycroft all in and out at different times.
And now it was two men, and two sleeping babies. The cots were already set up in their bedroom, where they agreed that the twins would sleep, at least for the first couple of months, until they got a bit bigger and stronger and they'd feel more safe leaving them in their own room.
Sherlock closed the front door behind him softly, then padded back to their bedroom and laid Thomas down, giving him a soft kiss on the top of his downy soft hair, the same color and straightness as his Papa's, not his own.
He walked back into the living room, where John still had Elizabeth, who was now stirring a bit. The house wasn't even all that lived in yet, they'd only been there a couple of months, and there were still boxes to unpack, mostly William's old toys that he'd outgrown.

He was glad they'd decided to keep them, now.
