WANDA let out a tired sigh and walked into the living room holding Tommy in her arms, trying her best to get him to stop crying and go to sleep.

"Sweet, sweet, Tommy, don't you wanna sleep?" She looked down at him. "Because I do. I want to sleep."

Tommy continued crying and tugged on her hair, making Wanda let out another sigh.

"If you go to sleep, I promise you'll be my favourite twin." Wanda whispered.

Carson walked down the stairs with Billy in his arms, letting out a laugh as he heard what Wanda said. "That won't work Wands, I already tried to bribe them both with that trick. And besides, you know we love them both equally."

"Well, don't tell him that!" Wanda covered Tommy's ears and looked at her husband. "No luck with Billy?"

"Nope." Carson replied, popping the P. "He's a stubborn one."

Wanda raised a brow. "I wonder where he gets that from."

"Behave." Carson warned playfully. He walked over to Wanda, gently swaying side to side as he chuckled. "May I have this dance, Mrs. Swan?"

"I thought you'd never ask." Wanda giggled and walked closer, doing the same. "Y'know it's almost like we're on a date."

"I seem to recall our dates usually going a different direction." Carson smirked. "Although, there's still plenty of time for that once the gremlins go to sleep."

A light blush creeped it's way up on Wanda's cheeks and Carson grinned at the sight. Before Wanda could come up with a reply, Tommy started to cry again which caused Billy to cry too.

"Carson, would you mind grabbing their binkies?" Wanda asked him.

Carson gave Wanda a quick kiss before moving over and setting Billy down in his crib. "Sure Wands."

Once Carson had walked into the kitchen, Wanda set down Tommy in his crib too and took a step back so she could look down at them both.

"Now, I know parents aren't supposed to take shortcuts. But I think this situation calls for one, don't you?" Wanda said quietly. "So, go to sleep, my babies."

Wanda attempted to use her powers to help the boys sleep, but it didn't work.

Her face scrunched up in confusion and she shook her head, trying it again. "And... go to sleep."

Once again it didn't seem to work and Wanda's confusion only grew more. The twins did stop crying however, but instead started to giggle.

"Well I don't think it's very funny." Wanda placed her hands on her hips. "Why won't you do what I want?"

Carson walked back in the room, throwing up one of the binkies in the air and catching it. "Hm, what's that Wands?" He asked as he passed them over to Wanda.

"Nothing, nothing." Wanda gave him a smile before she reached down to give the dummies to the boys.

The crying stopped and the couple both tensed up as they froze on the spot, waiting a few seconds to see if the noise level would stay like that.

Wanda looked at her husband. "Look, I think it's w—"

She was cut off by her own gasp as Tommy and Billy both spat out their dummies, one hitting Wanda's chest while the other hit Carson right in the face.

Carson pursed his lips. "Nice shot."

Wanda turned to Carson and rested her forehead against his chest, letting out an annoyed groan. Carson huffed and his head dropped too, landing down on Wanda's shoulder.
