I Didn't Want This Either

l Luke Hughes l masterlist l part 1 l * warning: death *

"Can we talk?" Jack knocked on the window of Luke's car. He didn't like what he was going to ask Luke, but he needed to get the conversation over with.

"What's up?" Luke watched as Jack fiddled with the sleeve of his jacket.

Jack took a deep breath in, counted to five, before let out the inhaled air.

"I know this is never probably going to happen, but I just want to be prepared just in case. because you never know what could happen. and Addie agrees with me, for once, I know it's crazy.

"Jack spit it out."

"Now that I have two kids. I've been thinking more about what happens to them if something happens to us. And I think I want you to raise them if we can't." The older brother asked of the younger one.

"Jack, I don't know." Luke contemplated what he was being asked, which was really nothing, but he knew. "Isn't there anyone better for the job? Mom? Quinn?"

"No, Luke. Quinn and Liv have enough going on and Mom and Dad don't need to raising two little kids after the raised us." Jack explained. "Plus you're great with them and they love you so much. Please Lukey."

"Fine"

"Great! I'll add you to daycare pick up." Jack reached over to give his brother an awkward hug before they went on with their separate ways.

--

"You're pretty." Jack chanced a glanced over at his beautiful wife. They had just dropped the kids off at daycare and were on their way to the rock.

"You're not too bad yourself Mr. Hughes" Addie said scrunching her nose at the man next to her.

"I'll talk to Luke or Nico today, maybe one of them can take the kids and we can have tonight." He kept looking back and forth from the road to his wife.

"Jack watch the road please." She clenched her jaw. There was traffic all around them, making her feel a bit nervous.

"What Ads? It's fine." Jack's eyes left the road again to look at his wife.

"Jack!"

Jack never saw the car until it was too late.

--

"Shit. Shit. Shit." Luke jumped out of bed. He scrambled to get ready for practice when the brain fog cleared and he saw it was after 10 am already.

He was so late. His alarms must not have gone off or something, because he was never late for practice. And here he was going to be late for the first time in forever.

Luke chose to forgo his usual morning routine and caffeinated beverage, thinking it might give a chance to get to the practice facility faster.

He was almost there when the traffic started to picked up. There must have been an accident. All sorts of emergency vehicles were surrounding the area.

As Luke got closer to the heart of the situation he noticed a two crumpled up cars. A silver one and a very familiar looking green one.

Luke got a good long look at the wreck as he passed it. Two white sheets littered the ground, the car accident must have been that bad that people died.

That's why there was so much commotion.

He felt bad for the family that was going learn the news that they lost people they loved. Little did he know his phone was blowing up at the moment, messages and phone calls from his parents and brother, family members, teammates, and close friends with that specific news.

The now super late hockey player got to his destination only an hour later than he was supposed to be there. He thought it was a bit odd how the normally packed parking garage was near empty. Where was everyone?

"Luke what are you doing here?" Nico frowned at the defensemen who was trying to get ice ready as fast as he could.

"I know I'm late. I didn't set my alarm and then there was some big accident. I'll do extra of whatever you want. I'm sorry." Luke finishing up lacing his skates up. If he had been looking at Nico eye's went wide at the mention of the accident.

"Practice was cancelled a couple of hours ago."

"Why would they do that we have a game tomorrow?"

"The league is thinking of postponing it"

"Why?" he stopped what he was doing to look up at his captain. There was a feeling in the room, there was something seriously wrong.

Luke finally glanced around the empty locker room, it held the same odd feeling that the lot had.

"Um. Have you looked at your phone lately?" The older man scratched the back of his head nervously.

Luke furrowed his brows at the question. No, he hadn't looked at his phone, he had been a little busy trying to get there as quickly as he could, the action didn't feel necessary at the time.

But now a bad sinking feeling was telling him that maybe he should.

He had a total of 19 missed calls from him Mom, Dad, and Quinn alone. Not to mention the other various voicemails that completely filled the digital voicemail box was completely filled. On top of that there were over a hundred txt messages from a variety of people.

There was even a message from Jack, a simple heart emoji followed by an 'i luv ya bro,' that was timestamped hours before everything else.

"Nico, what's going on?" His voice hitched after he read a txt from Trevor that read 'i just heard about j. i'm so sorry.' When Luke looked up from the device he took note that Nico was now accompanied by their new coach and a few devils' personal.

"Luke you should call your parents back" The captain picked at the skin around his fingers.

"No just tell me. What's going on?" He thumbed through his device trying to decipher the

"Let's take this somewhere a little more private. Yeah?" The group of higher ups attempted to usher then to a different room a little more quiet and appropriate to have this conversation. Luke shook them off, wanting them to just spit it out.

"Say it Nico" Luke shook them off. He wanted Nico to just spit it out. He was tired of this go around and the hesitation

Nico sighed heavily. He didn't want to be the one to tell his friend the news, it would be better if it were coming from a family member, but they were all on there way to New Jersey at moment. So he had to do his best.

"There was an accident" Nico began to say. Luke felt his heart beat faster, and a pit forming in his stomach as he realized what Nico was telling him. Maybe this would have been better coming from his mom or dad, hell even Quinn.

"Jack and Addie were in the car-" Nico continued. That green car that look familiar. Jack had a green car.

"No no no no no no no." He covered his ears in an attempted to block out what Nico was telling him. This wasn't happening.

"they didn't make it." Nico finished. He put his hand on Luke's shoulder in an attempt to comfort him. The kind gesture didn't help anyeay as Luke grabbed the nearest garbage pail and emptied the contents of his stomach in it.

It was true. It couldn't be true. Jack wasn't dead. This was all just some sort of prank, a sick joke. Jack was going to walk around the corner and say sike.

He need to get out of there. Anywhere but there. He had this pain in chest, and it was hard to breath anytime he thought of his brother.

He got in his car and drove without a destination in mind. He drove and drove until he found himself in a deserted mall parking lot, not another car or person in sight.

Luke sat in his perfectly fine car and screamed. There wasn't anyone around, so no one would be able to judge him. Not that he cared. He needed to get his emotions out.

Why Jack? Why couldn't have been him? If only he had been on time today, maybe it would have been him in that accident and Jack would still be alive.

He had been receiving texts all day. Luke ignored all of them. A few people called, he ignored those too. Ellen had been calling him at least once every hour, but he still refused to talk to her.

There was one number that had been persistently calling him, even more than his mother had. Maybe she had gotten a hold of another phone and was calling from that. He didn't know, but he finally decided to answer the call.

"Hey Luke, this is Y/N calling this Happy Times Nursery, how are you?" The very peppy and friendly lady ask.

"I'm um, I could be better. What is this pertaining to?" He mumbled his reply confirming it was him.

"I'm sorry to hear that. Well we've been trying to reach Jack and Addie for a couple of hours now seeing that it is well past pick up time for Lucy and Felix. We were just wondering if someone was on their way to retrieve them. They are our last kids for the night and we would like to go home."

Shit, the kids

“They never actually got married even though they told everyone they did”

WAIT WHY

Mom is a very strong independent person who isn't afraid to speak her own mind. Like when she finds out she's pregnant with Hattie, she's not nervous or worried what Quinn will say, because with or without him she's got this, thankfully Quinn was all in on babygirl.

Quinn and Mom were always going to get married, that was the plan: get drafted, get engaged, finished school/play in nhl, get married, move to Vancouver, have a family, win a Stanley cup. They accomplish 1 ½ of those things before they found out about Hattie. Quinn already had an engagement ring picked (Luke and Jack helped him ☺️) so he moved up his proposal date. Mom said yes and they started planning a wedding.

They wanted to get married before baby was born, or at least thats what both their parents told them. And as the date got closer and things started to become overwhelming for our strong mom. The thing that set her off was Ellen wanted to add more family and friends to the guest list.

She cried to Quinn about everything. Quinn was shocked, he had never seen her cry like this before. Quinn suggests forgetting the whole big white wedding and eloping instead. They can just cancel the wedding, they don't have to explain anything to anyone, grab a friend and elope. Mom agrees and they plan the next time he's in the states to go to the court house.

But the day of her hormones are getting the best of her again. She's feeling like she's disappointing everyone, especially Ellen by doing this, and everyone's going to be judging her.

They're at the courthouse waiting for their mystery friend, Mom's upset and Quinn takes matters into his own hands. He gives her the band that matches her engagement ring.

"Let's wait Y/N. You're upset, I don't want you upset on your wedding day." Quinn rubbed his hand up and down her arm, calming her down some.

"No no. We can do it now, I want to do this now. We need to do this now, we've already cancelled the wedding. It'll be too late to schedule something else before March." Y/N wiped her eyes with the palms of her hands. Quinn saw how important pleasing his mother and their family meant to her. His happy-go-lucky girl was never like this.

"Or" Quinn took her left hand, and slid the white gold sparkly band next to the big diamond. "we just tell everyone we eloped now. And later once babygirl is born, we can actually elope. Won't it be more fun to include her anyways?"

They believed the lie for so long that they eventually forgot them never tied the knot. Mom legally got her last name to Hughes, and no ever suspected a thing. Though the subject gets brought up in arguments from time to time.

[ateriblewriter]

how many kids do Quinn and mom end up having?

Just 3, two girls and one boy. After their last Quinn promises no more and sticks to it.

Hattie Beatrix

Beck Elias

Eden Rae

Hattie was a college baby, they got pregnant with Beck during the summer of 24, and Eden was a complete surprise, they didn't know about her until Jack and Luke are bringing mom to the hospital

[ateriblewriter]

The first two times mom posts pictures like this in her mid summer photo dump she ends up pregnant by the following summer. Jack caught on and pointed it out in her comment section. Quinn and mom profusely said no way, no more babies ... little did they know who was coming about a month later.

[ateriblewriter]

more Quinn and Mom

baby duck idea because she is my reason for living❤️. Jamie introduces ducky to Cam. he's like "Ducky we're gonna go see a friend" in her mind she's thinking "yay I get to see uncle Trevor again, it's been way too long" but instead Cam is saying hi to her and trying to give her a toy and a high-five but she's not having it. "YOU'RE NOT MAMA!?" and she tries to run out of the house.

also unrelated thought

Jamie takes her to her first f1 race because of her lightning McQueen obsession. she has no idea what f1 is or where she's at but she knows she loves Charles leclerc because he drives a red car. he came second that race but she some how runs away from Jamie and bumps into him after the race "wow you mcqueen I luv you, you da best"

🤣

"YOU'RE NOT MAMA! YOU YUCKY!" Hence the name Yucky was born.

She's sobbing because she wants her Mama, not this weird guy who's trying to give her a Gritty stuffie, that she doesn't want because Gritty is scary. Her daddy told her the going to go see a guy who was a friend of Trevor's, which she took as Trevor was going to be there too. She really misses him, and his hugs.

Cam is just trying to be nice and Jamie warned him about the orange creature and he didn't listen. Jamie's a bit frustrated and while he's scolding Cam, Kinsley is out the door trying to get the car so they can drive to actually see Trevor.

~

I don't know really anything at all about racing or f1 but I love that. Jamie thinks it would be fun to take her watch the race, and she loves it. She wears ALL of her Lightning McQueen gear, she is ready for this thing. She sees the red car and is immediately in love with it.

"Daddy, Daddy look! It's McQueen!" She's pointing at it every time it zooms past. Jamie knew it wasn't actually the animated racing car, but he wasn't about to crush his babygirl's imagination.

After the race they go down and Kins spots the pretty red car she is obsessed with. She's pulling on Jamie's arm, trying her hardest to drag him over there, but Jamie's not budging as he's to busy talking with someone else. So Duck simply just lets his hand go and wanders away.

She eventually bumps into Leclerc and she gasps staring up at him, speechless. Charles is just like kid you shouldn't be here, where is your person.

"You Mr. McQueen. Wow. I luv you." Charles too doesn't have the heart to tell her he's not McQueen. He goes along with it, making Duck so happy.

Eventually Jamie does find her.

I'm sensing a pattern, Duck is a bolter, a head butter, she likes scaring people and she has bitten before.

[ateriblewriter]

Now that the season is over Trevor’s first act of business is to go see duck. She’s been begging for him, acting out way more than she ever does. She even packed her little “pack pack” aka back pack to take herself to trev because daddy wouldn’t.

oh baby duck. :(

she's had a rough year. jamie's not around as much and having to move away from her people. she's so young, she doesn't understand everything.

the tantrums are on the rise. she keeps telling jamie no and calling him bad mean daddy. she may or may not have head butted him in the core area and it really hurt. time outs are not working (he refuses to spank, he's not gonna hit his child).

But i can imagine that now that it’s the season, trevor’s gonna surprise them before they leave for the summer. (and/or before jamie has surgery).

and duck already has a pack pack packed with her meme (blanky), sheldon, wild wing, and one of jamie’s old phone that she uses as a toy. she is ready to go find him. jamie catches her trying to open the locked door (thankfully she hasn’t figured how unlock it yet), crying ensues.

but trevor is already there knocking on the door. he can hear her crying from his side of the door and it hurts his heart. he knocked harder hoping they would hear him.

jamie opens the door. he’s holding kinsley and her back is to trevor so she can’t see him.

“baby look who it is” jamie cooed smiling. duck shook her head no. she didn’t want to be bothered if it wasn’t mama. “come on chickie look”

“hey ducky” trevor spoke up so she could hear him.

“MAMA!” kinsley whipped her head around so fast and launched herself into his waiting arms, her sadness long forgotten now.

[ateriblewriter]

imagine its a warm sunny day at the lake house. mom and quinn take the paddle boards out for a trip. they find a nice spot to take a rest. quinn makes his way to mom’s board and they just talk -nay mom does all the talking, quinn just listening, giving his input here and there. after a while mom gets sleepy, she leans back and quinn follows suit, he moved aside string of her bikini bottom, placing a kiss on the soft skin there and nuzzling his face between her legs before they both fall asleep like that.

also imagine them being spotted by jack and luke and their friends. they totally believe that quinn is eating mom out while they’re laying there. jack, still being slightly salty, tattles to ellen about they’re doing. and once they get back to shore they’re getting in trouble.

[ateriblewriter]

quinn reads to mom while she takes a bath. they like the quiet time together. it's the only time mom stops talking. she loves hearing quinn talk and will let quinn pick out whatever book he wants. sometimes quinn joins her.
