Everyone helps clean up dinner, then you walk with Sam on the beach
You: You okay?
Sam: Yes, I'm okay
You: Then why did you need to talk to me?
Sam: I need your help
You: With what?
Sam: Proposing to Val
You: I'm listening...
Sam: I want to take her to dinner, then propose to her on the beach
You: That sounds amazing!
Sam: Can you set up the beach part?
You: Yes, I'll have Tom help me. When is this happening?
Sam: Tomorrow night
You: Okay! Send me what you want it to look like and I'll pick it up after work
Sam: Thank you so much y/n
You: Anything for you Sam, and I mean anything
He gives you a tight hug and you walk back inside
Tom: Hey shortie
You: Hi Spidey
Tom: He okay?
You: Absolutely
Tom: Great!
You: We're taking your car to work tomorrow
Tom: Okay?
You: I'll explain later
Haylee: Hey mom! Can you come here?!
Tom: Duty calls
You give him a kiss and head up to find Haylee on the verge of tears
You: Bubba? ...What happened?
Haylee: I think I got my...period
You: That's okay honey, it's natural
Haylee: What do I do?
You: Well, for one, I hope you have something stopping the blood
Haylee: I didn't know what to do
You: Come with me, bring a pair of old underwear
She grabs the underwear and follows you to your bathroom
You: Okay, you have two options
Haylee: Which are?
You: A pad or a tampon, I have both
Haylee: What's the difference?
You: The pad sits on your underwear and the tampon sits...inside
Her eyes go wide
Haylee: No tampons!
You: Okay, then here's a pad. All you need to do is lay it on your underwear and place the flaps on the bottom
Haylee: Okay...
You: If you need me, I'll be right outside the door
You leave and see Tom coming into the room
Tom: She okay?
You: Yeah
Tom: What happened?
You: Girl stuff
Tom: Eww
You: Hence why she called for me. I've got this one. Can you take Ryker to soccer?
Tom: Yup
He kisses your forehead and heads out
Haylee: It won't move, right?
You: It shouldn't, no. Sometimes it will, but it's not a big deal
Haylee: Thanks for not freaking out
You: Hey, periods are 100% natural
Haylee: Do you get them?
You: I do, although mine are different
Haylee: Why?
You: I'm older, so my body's closer to not having them anymore
Haylee: That makes sense
You: Okay. I have to clean up dinner. You just chill, okay baby girl?
Haylee: Yeah, thanks mom
You: That's why I'm here
You give her a hug and head down to clean up. Sam had sent you everything he wanted, and you had it ordered and ready to pick up after work
Ryker: Hi mom
You: How was soccer?
Ryker: Good, dad played too
You: You did?
Tom: Yeah, they had kids vs. parents. I was very rusty
You all laugh and head to bed shortly after
