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
