Slowly, you wake up from your slumber. By the looks of the outside it looks pretty light so you missed dawn.

Clem is already awake and she is just laying there.

You: morning.

Clem: good morning. How'd you sleep?

You: like a log.

You say with a yawn as you stretch you arms, sitting up.

Clem: me too.

She says as she gets out of bed and starts getting dressed. You do the same, having to get out of her side because of the pillow fort blocking your path.

You get dress and look at the fort.

You: we should really take this down at some point before it becomes a permanent thing.

Clem: what? I like it.

You: me too but it takes up half the bed.

You say with a laugh.

Clem: true. Well we should let the boys play in it.

You: I don't like them playing in a thing we necked on in.

Clem: they played in the car when we had it.

She says giving you a look.

You: yeah because that was the only room. Well I could take this one down and me, you and the boys can build it again in their room. It'll be nice I feel like I haven't really talked with either of them.

Clem: me neither. Only when they come up to the office. We've just been so busy and they want more independence. They were still in a car with us like you said.

You: well this can be something we can do together.

Clem smiles.

You: ok are you going to help me take this down.

Clem: I'll help.

The two of you get to work on removing one blanket at a time and folding it up into one big, neat pile on the bed.

You: I need a shower at some point today.

Clem: me too. I'll probably go after dinner.

You: I don't like showering during the day. Don't know why just prefer it at night. But sometimes it's good to wake you up on the morning.

Clem: I've not had a morning shower.

You: I've had one or two.

You pick up the pillows one by one.

Clem: we should probably check if they're awake before we barge in.

You: Yeah let's go.

The two of you exit your room and walk to the boys door.

You carefully open it, peaking through just in case they are still sleeping. They aren't.

All 3 of them are there.

AJ is cleaning his gun and fiddling with it. Hopefully it's not loaded. Jack is sat about a metre from the wall throwing the same 3 knives into it. Tenn is sat meekly playing with his toys like a normal human child.

You look at clem who just looks confused and concerned.

You: what the fuck are these children?

You whisper.

Clem: maybe a pillow fort is a good idea. Stop them from playing with weapons.
