I'm Finally Wanted

Chapter 2

*Edited*

I sigh heavily as I hear River yelling at his brother at 5 in the freaking morning. Tyler groans next to me.

"It's fine, I got it." I say to Tyler as I get out of bed.

Tyler mumbles something like thanks, as I'm heading out of our bedroom. I go to the boys' room and open the door, to see River with his hands on his hips as he glares at his brother, who's sleeping with his head at the foot of his bed instead of where his pillows are.

"Mommy! Tell Wywy to move his head! I can't sleep when his heads there!" River yells with tears in his eyes. "He's been like that all night!" River angrily sits on the ground, and my heart breaks a little bit.

"But Rivy! It's comfy sleeping like this!" Wyatt whines.

"BUT ITS WRONG WYWY!!!" River yells at the tip of his lungs.

I sit down across from River. "River, what's keeping you from sleeping?" I ask.

"Wywy laying like that!" River says as he throws his hands up in the air.

"I know that, but what else is it?" I ask.

"What if the ceiling falls onto Wywy? Then it would be my fault because he should've had his head on the wrong side of the bed! I don't want Wywy to die!"

Is it weird I think it's adorable they use their nicknames for each other even when their pissed at each other? It's so cute.

"But Wyatt's ok. Right Wyatt?" I ask.

"Yeah mommy." Wyatt says as he sits up and looks at River. "I'm ok Rivy. I'm not gonna die until I'm really old. Like mommy!" Wyatt says.

Geez. Wyatt thinks I'm really old? How lovely. I'm only 22. I don't get why they think I'm some old person.

"But daddy's even older." River says wide eyed then looks at me.

"Mommy, don't you dare die. Same with daddy." River says narrowing his eyes at.

"I promise I won't die anytime soon." I promise him.

Yeah, death is unpredictable, and you never really know when you'll die. So, there's no way I can actually make that promise to River, but I don't have the heart to tell him I could die sometime soon.

I sense Tyler behind me, then less than a second later, he sits down next to me and across from River.

"Hi daddy!" River says as he hugs Tyler.

Well at least River forgot about this whole Wyatt in the wrong side of the bed problem, even if he favors his dad more than me.

"Daddy!!" Wyatt says as he gets out of bed and hugs Tyler too.

"Hey guys!" Tyler says happily.

"Ok boys, let's make our beds." I say. River is the first to let go of Tyler and start making his bed, the Wyatt follows his brother and makes his bed too.

Tyler stands up and puts a hand around waist as we watch the boys make their beds.

"You do realize we are complete hypocrites, right? Our bed hasn't been made since you gave birth to them." Tyler whispers in my ear.

"Oh hush. They don't need to know we don't make our bed." I say smacking Tyler's arm that's around my waist. Making Tyler laugh.

"I love you, Rae." Tyler says as he kisses my cheek.

"EWWWW DADDY KISSED MOMMY!!!!" Wyatt screams and covers his eyes.

"EWW, I DON'T WANT TO SEE THAT!!!!!" River screams as he covers his eyes too.

Tyler and I just burst into laughter. I'm laughing so hard, I actually tear up some.

"Oh my goodness, our kids are so weird." Tyler laughs.

River turns around and looks at us as he crosses his arms.

"You two are absolutely disgusting. I do not want to see you two sharing cooties. I just cannot with you two." He says shaking his head at us then going over to his brother to tell him the coast is clear, and that we aren't kissing.

I feel like River shouldn't think it's ok to talk to me and Tyler like that, but I just break into laughter again.

I love our kids, and I love Tyler, and I love our whole life as a family. I'm glad that I'm raising my kids better than my parents raised me. And sometimes it's hard to punish the boys, when they need it, because I don't want to be mean to them. But I also know how people turn out when their parents aren't firm with them, like Tyler kinda. He acted out a lot when he was younger, to get his parents attention and he ended up getting left behind when they moved to London. And I also see it with my siblings. They never got punished, and they ended being troubled and spoiled brats. There's no way I want my kids to turn out like that, so I love them, but I'm also firm.

With all that said, I still let it go with River and laugh.

"You know what we should do?" Tyler's asks as we follow the boys out of their room and to where their toys are.

"What should we do?" I ask Tyler smiling up at him.

"I think we should go on a date tonight." Tyler says smirking at me.

Last time we went on a date, was for our honeymoon, since we didn't actually leave. We just went on a prolonged date, which was a day long. Because the boys where just four months old, and neither of us could leave them for more than a day. Or we chose to only be gone for a day.

"Whose gonna watch the boys?" I ask him.

"Dax said he could come over." Tyler says as he leans down and kisses me lightly.

Dax is my youngest brother, also the youngest in my actual family. He's the sibling I talk to the most, I actually talk to him almost every day. He and I are closer to each other than my other siblings, because he helped me and Tyler out. When Tyler and I first started dating, my parents forced me to move back in with them, and basically held me hostage. My parents also forced me to break up with Tyler, and switch my schools, so Tyler and I never saw each other. But during all that, Tyler and my brother Dax started texting each other, and Dax actually helped Tyler escape my parents. And after that, Dax would inform Tyler about things going on in my family. So, Dax helped me and Tyler out a ton, so the least I could do was be friends with my brother. At that time, Dax was only 10, and now he's 15.

"Seems you've planned this out Ty."

"Oh, I have been planning this for the whole week Mrs. Short. And I'm not taking no for an answer."

"I suppose I could go out on a date tonight." I say smirking at Tyler.

Let's see if this date is a good idea.

Let me know your thoughts so far. Also, it might be a few days until I update again, because I need to study for a test I have for college, which is totally not what I'm supposed to be doing now.... K bye!
Oh, and does everyone remember Dax, Raven's little brother?
