Previous round: Benjamin asked Alexander to move in. They got engaged and are expecting their first child. Now the moved out of the Bradbury household into their own house.

This round: Seems like the house wasn't ready yet. The power isn't working for the first day.

Anyways, here's their house

And here's the backyard. No indoor pictures because they didn't have the money for a proper decoration

While Alex went to work immediately, Benjamin was practising charisma which he needs for a promotion (He's a firefighter)

He also needed a logic skill point

Time for lunch

Alex came home with Thomas Miller

While Thomas and Alex were chatting, Ben took care of the garden. It'll make a bit of extra income once the plants are ready

Pop #2

Late night makeout session

Ben made himself breakfast

Alex went to another day of work

Ben spent more time in the garden

Ben invited his friend Tori Sullivan

Tori: "Hi, friend!"
Tori and Alex had an affair before he met Benjamin. They are still in love and I sent Tori home before drama happened

Neither of them had the want to marry each other. This is all I got but I'll take it


Time to have that baby

Alex: "Come on, Baby, you can do it!"

It's a boy! Welcome Nicholas!


He got a little nursery but they still were broke af

Alex took the first night shift because Ben was still so tired

We need 400 §. Any donations?

Ben really needed some time after the pregnancy to get his need panels up again. He had to stop his sleep to eat and was still tired

Nicholas wasn't a big fan of letting his father get his sleep

Verena Hill: "Wooo, fight!"

Grey wolf > black wolf

It's always good to see and greet the mayor Kelly Winchester

Oliver Sullivan also showed up

Verena and Thomas played chess together


It was a bathroom party

None of them was a grilled cheese sim but they still ate it all the time

Nicholas was hungry

Alex and Ben went on a date (well, they had it at home)



I'm not complaining. They'll get married tomorrow. When Alex goes to work and Ben receives his wage for taking his vacation day, they'll have enough for a wedding arch and can have that party


Great! They got a TV and sold it for 8000 § extra cash. Now they can have their wedding arch and pay the bills!

Done


The oranges are ready! Now they'll have even more money

What?

WHAT????

Ben didn't even have the option to play for Alex' life...
On the first day of their round Alex cought the flu... But it was nothing! He didn't cough once! Why did this happen? WHY?

Poor Ben :/

To make things even sader it was Nicholas' birthday. What a great day to grow up...

Maybe some day... but now it isn't the best time to think about another child *locks the want anyway*

Alex lies in the backyard for now. Ben's not ready to move him to the cemetary (and I was hoping to see him as a ghost)
Alex will be the first sim to lie there

Now Ben will have to raise Nicky alone


He's a cutie

Ben: "Come to Daddy!"

Nicky: "Nope!"

Nicholas was sleeping and Ben had time for the garden



More work in the garden



Ben's friend Spencer Bradbury showed up and they had dinner

Seems like Ben is ready to date again

Leo Prince walked by and Ben greeted him. They share 3 bolts! Nothing flirty yet, but we'll see what happens

Spence took care of Nicky while Ben was chatting with Leo


Ben was tired and went to bed

But Nicky was in the best hands

Alex' grave was moved to the cemetery
Alex: "Bye, Babe! Take good care of Nicky and yourself!"

That's where we end the unexpected dramatic round.
Tax was 2.900 §
