I'm excited for this arc :)

I felt warm and safe. I blinked my eyes open slowly to see Sho's bare chest, and his muscular arms wrapped around me, holding me close.

I can feel his chin resting lightly on the top of my head, with a fuzzy blanket draped over both of us. I sighed in contentment and snuggled further into his arms, and I felt his hold tighten as he lifted his head to look down at my face.

I smiled as I returned his sleepy gaze, he chuckled as his eyes roamed over my head towards the door.

I looked over to see three mischievous little children peeking into the room. I grinned, and not a moment later they piled into the room and jumped on the bed; well, Mae jumped on the bed. Dashi sat on the edge and Miyo stood next to it.

I pulled away from Sho as Mae fell in between us, Shoto just re-wrapped his arms around her. I noticed small bags under her eyes, despite getting enough sleep. I raised my eyebrow and looked over at the other too, and neither of them showed the same signs of exhaustion.

I held open my arms as Miyo and Dashi joined in, "Did you three sleep well?" I asked, hoping to get an explanation from Mae. She simply nodded into Sho's chest and I looked up at him with a curious look.

He shared my expression, but neither of us said anything. "What do you guys want for breakfast?"

Dashi had quite a few suggestions, and Miyo even piped in, but Mae didn't answer. I looked at her and Sho ran his fingers through her hair, he looked up a few seconds later, "She's asleep."

I looked over at Dashi and Miyo, but they didn't appear to know anything, "And you guys say that I'm a heavy sleeper!" Dashi laughed, and Miyo smiled.

I pushed up out of bed, "Well why don't we go make breakfast, Daddy and Mae can rest here until we're done." I suggested, Dashi and Miyo hopped out of the bed and ran into the kitchen.

I continued to hold Mae for close to fifteen minutes, I have a gut feeling that something's wrong. It's worrying me.

She normally is very vocal about things that bother her, which makes this a little more scary than usual. Obviously something is going on that she isn't talking about, but the fact that she's not talking about it is undeniably strange.

I took a deep breath, "Mae, baby, what's wrong?" She didn't answer for a few moments, and I knew she wasn't really asleep. She suddenly looked up at me with glossy eyes, I held her closer and kissed the top of her head, "You can tell me anything, you know."

"It's silly," she mumbled. I pushed her hair back off her forehead and smiled, "If it's upsetting you this much, it's not silly." She gave me a weak smile in return, "I just had a scary dream last night, and I couldn't go back to sleep." I tilted my head, "What happened in the dream?"

She played with a strand of her hair, "It was two villains talking, they were talking about an attack that's supposed to happen at three o'clock today. It just felt so real that it scared me, like, I felt like I was looking back on a memory and not just dreaming."

I thought for a moment, "Did you see what the villains looked like?" She nodded slightly, "Kind of, I only saw one, and not very clearly. It was a tall man, he was wearing a lot of black, and I think he might've been in jail. He looked locked up." I nodded, "Almost all locked up villains have to wear special uniforms to keep their quirk under control, and they're usually orange, not black. I think it's safe to say it was just a dream."
