Our Future

-Seventeen-

Ever since Delilah started walking it's all she wants to do. Whenever we pick her up or try and hold her she fusses to be let down.

Meanwhile Leo was talking my damned ear off about his drawings he's been doing recently.
Something he probably got from Aleah.

"And then this one is you, me, mommy, Deedee and my new brudder or sister that's in mommy's tummy and-"

"Leo baby, that's great but I need you to be quiet, mommy's sleeping and I'm trying to work little man, okay?"

Aleah's about a month along in her pregnancy and instead of vomiting every day she's been sleeping all day everyday. I just hope she was okay, she didn't sleep this much when she was pregnant with Leo it was the opposite actually.

"No I'm awake, just drowsy. Leave him be."Aleah mumbled from the bed. Slightly sitting up.

"Oh. How're you feeling mama?"

"I don't know. I mean I'm not puking anymore so I guess that's good. But now I'm exhausted all the time. I just can't win!" She flopped back onto the bed as she sighed.

I set Delilah in her playpen ignoring her whines of protest. before I climbed into bed with Aleah. Peppering her face with kisses.

"I'm sorry love. Are you okay?"

"I don't know. I'm gonna call Kate later today for a checkup. Meanwhile you need to go and plan your next shows."

I groaned as I rolled over the other side of the bed. "But I don't want to. I just wanna stay here with you and the kids. I miss cuddling with you."

She pulled me into her side and layed a kiss to my forehead.
"I know baby, so do I but as soon as you get these shows done and this little tour then we can do that every day for as long as you want, I promise."

I smiled and left a kiss to her lips before heading off to Finns room to brainstorm.

-

"Okay and then I want the screens to show like a montage of all of my shows from the very beginning, is that possible?"

Finneas wrote some things down in his phone before nodding his head.
"Yeah we could do that."

It was about 2 hours into my little brainstorming session when I heard a little knock on Finns door and I automatically knew it was Leo.

"Hey little man, what's going on, where's mommy?"

"She tolds me to come get you. She tolds me to tell you she was panicking."

"Shit." I mumbled forgetting Leo was even in front of me. "Don't repeat that. Okay, is Deedee still in her playpen baby?" He nodded his head.
"Okay good, look I need you to stay with Uncle Finn while I take care of mommy okay?"

I kissed his head and hurried off to the room where Aleah sat at the edge of the bed in the start of a panic attack. I immediately went in front of her trying to calm her down the best I could. Gently placing my hands into her face.

"Hey hey, look at me. I'm right here, it's okay. Deep breaths love, deep breaths."

She tried speaking but her breath got caught in her throat causing her to cough.

"Shh don't try and talk baby. Just focus on the breathing see my chest? Match yours with mine okay?"

We did some breathing exercises and soon ended her breathing evened out. She wasn't in full panic attack mode which relived me. She took in a deep breath and blew it out before sitting up straight.
