Ophelia's still fast asleep thankfully when Bucky turns his head to look at the clock. Just gone 3.a.m. A nightmare.

He's breathing heavily, panting almost, but still trying to control it so he didn't wake up his wife. It was only a nightmare, concerning her. It was the first nightmare he had about Ophelia. He can't recall much, except her face flashing in front of him several times.

But as his breathing finally softens, and his heart starts to thump to a normal speed, he realises it wasn't a nightmare. A dream. A freaking dream, and he was panicking about it. He wasn't used to dreams. He hadn't had one since the one with Ophelia in the green shorts.

Bucky smiles as he rests his head against the pillows again. All the dreams he's had in his adult life, Ophelia were in them. He was so grateful for her, for all the things she did for him. Bucky thought how he absolutely did not deserve her as he shuffles down the bed.

"Hi bubs", his voice barely a whisper as he speaks. "What are you two up to in there? Sleeping? Playing? I don't know."

Ophelia's eyes flutter open, something making her stir. She looks around the room, not bothered to get up, thinking Bucky was coming back from the bathroom. She yells when she realises that he was right by her stomach, murmuring softly.

"What the fuck are you doing?", she breathes out, both of them groaning as she switches on her bedside light.

"N-nothing", he grumbles, his head hitting the pillows again in annoyance.

"Why were you speaking to the babies?", she whispers, not wanting to disturb Groot, and switching off her light quickly after the initial shock.

"I just couldn't sleep. They're choosing who is doing the appy tomorrow you know?", chewing on his bottom lip. "I was just telling them the steps."

"God, they're not gonna be surgeons. Peanut is gonna be a zoologist, and Pumpkin will be . . . a CEO. She's gonna own her own company, that specialises in making all sorts of things for zoos. Medication for the animals, signs, posters, you name it. Her company will do it. Seattle based of course. Peanut's gonna want to open her own zoo in Florida or something. But then she'll change her mind, and stick to D.C.-"

"No no, Alpha is gonna be a surgeon. I know it, and Bravo is gonna write books. Maybe romance novels. But they're gonna be good. New York Times Best Seller, and-and they'll develop it into movies, and she's gonna base her characters off people in her life, and their looks on strangers she sees on the train. And then she'll edit books too and set up her own publishing house especially for upcoming female writers, ranging from all sorts of genres-"

"Who's Alpha?" "Alpha is Pumpkin to you", he turns his head, closing his eyes and trying to settle down again.

"I am Groot?", the door opening to reveal his shadow against the soft fairy lights that illuminated the stairs all-year round.

"What do you mean you feel sick?", Ophelia sits up. "Come here", beckoning him over to get a closer look. "I mean, your bark looks fine. Maybe it's just a feeling? It's nearly 4 in the morning. You need your sleep mister."

"I am Groot", he gives a small smile.

"Go on then. Only cause I'm tired-", laughing as Groot jumps up on the bed, climbing around to lie in between his parents.

"Go to sleep right away. Daddy has a big day tomorrow", she smiles as she closes her eyes.

"Wait, do you know-" "That rule applies to you too", opening her eyes to give him a warning look. He sighs and submits, letting Groot snuggle into his side.
