This is why Ty Ty is here

Alex's POV:

I'm out shopping with Benji and annoyingly Tyler had to come with us. Benji is little and I can handle him on my own. Cami made me agree to let Tyler come with me though because she was worried that I was lying when I said I wasn't fuzzy at all or pushing off my regression. I know where she's coming from because I have been known for doing that, and today I did wake up with the slight fuzz in the back of my head, but I was able to push it off like I normally do. Benji was little about an hour before we left and still is, so I've been taking care of him which is amazing because he is one of the cutest littles I've ever met. We are at the mall, just shopping around. I came here because they recently put in a store full of regressor items, pacifiers, clothes, toys, beds, they've got anything a little could ask for. I was gonna get some new stuff for everyone because as much as we have, it's always nice to have some more especially when there was a time where some of us had nothing.

I'm currently in Bath and Body works waiting for Tyler and Benji to get done in the bathrooms. I'm scanning through new candles looking for a flowery one for the upcoming summer. I check out with a couple of candles for the summer and make my way to the front of the store, finding Tyler and Benji hand in hand walking my way.

"Lookie bubba! Ty Ty gots me bear fwom claw!" Benji holds out his free hand which has a small teal colored bear in it.

"Wow, it's a very pretty one sweetheart. Now, what do we say to Ty Ty?" Benji turns to look up at Tyler.

"Fankies Ty Ty," Tyler pats his shoulder and tassels up his hair a bit.

"You're welcome Benny, why don't we go find some new stuff for everyone, hmm?" I grab onto Benji's other hand, and we all walk over to the new store. We walk in and it smells like strawberries. I gain the fuzzy feeling back in my head as I look around at everything inside. Tyler brings us over to get a basket and I grab one as well. Benji and Tyler walk over to look at some new bath toys and I wander over to the paci's, bottles and sippy cups. I find a set of two pink sippy cups; one has white polka-dots and the other has white stripes. I place them into the basket for Marah and Madison. I found a purple and a blue double pack as well, just plain ones for Dylan and Sam. I'm not sure what Annie likes so I grab a white one with flowers on it. I find a nice solid white one with a giraffe and a tree on it. Benji will love it. I grab almost similar bottles for them all even though some of them don't regress that young. I turn to another corner of the cups and find a purple sippy cup with a unicorn and a matching bottle to go with it. I feel the fuzziness growing in my head still while I pick up the set and admire them. I place them into my basket and turn to face the aisle behind me. It is full of adult pacifiers, tons of different designs and tons of other options to choose from. I walk through the aisle picking out 2-3 paci's for all of the littles. I pick up one, it's a nice bluish-purple color. It had beads on the handle spelling out Hearts, one of my nicknames. Along with a heart center piece that is covered in glitter. I find another one that I would love to have, and I feel myself drop. I dropped down into my headspace so quickly that it almost made me dizzy. I look around slightly confused now in my younger headspace, I'm scared of everything around me. There are two other people I can see in the aisle which scares me more. I just want Ty Ty and I wanna go home and lay down with my unicorn plush. Tears spring to my eyes and they silently fall down my face as I stand and wish Ty would just come in and hold my hand so I can calm down. Luckily, that's what seems to play out.

Tyler's POV:

Benji and I have picked out new toys for everyone. We also picked out some new clothes. I bring Benji over to find Alex with all of the utensils like cups and plates and all that. Not finding them there we move onto the next aisle with the pacifiers. Finding Alex almost into the wall just looking at her shoes slightly shaking and sniffling. I jog my way over to her with Benji getting distracted by some paci on the wall.

"Oh Alex, come here. It's okay bug Ty Ty is here," I pull her into a hug grabbing onto one of her hands. I grab the basket out of their hands and place it onto the floor. Benji has made his way over now standing beside us. I can see the look on his face, but he isn't saying anything because he knows how scary it is to be in this position.

"C'mon bug, let's go check this stuff out and go home. I'm sure Cami will have dinner made by then," I grab a basket in one hand and Benji holds the other with both of his hands. I keep a hold on Alex's hand because I'm almost positive that's the only thing keeping her together right now. I pay for our stuff and by the time we leave the store Benji is big again and carrying any bags we've acquired during our day. Alex is still only looking at the ground, still shaking a bit and clinging to my hand. We all made our way back to the car and I'm debating in my head how this is gonna go. Alex won't accept any of the extra little things I have in the spare bag, and I need to drive. I'm gonna try my best with this though because I can only do so much.

"Hey Bug, did you get anything while we were at the store?" She nods and points at the bags. I pick out the exact pacifier I knew would be hers, a purpley color with the name hearts on it with a heart centerpiece. I grabbed the new stuffie I got for her as well, a puppy with a unicorn horn. I also got out one of the sippy cups she picked out a purple one with a unicorn on it. I grabbed a water bottle out of the car and rinsed out the cup a bit before filling it up and pulling down the middle console in the backseat and placing the cup in it.

"Alright bug let's get you into Ty Ty's car so we can go home," she whines a bit, but I lift her up into the car seat anyways. I get her buckled in and situated with her stuffy before placing her new paci into her mouth and closing the door. Benji climbs into the passenger seat putting the bags near his feet, picking out a safari themed paci, removing the packaging and placing it into his mouth. I look at him and he gets out of the front and sits in the back in the other car seat. I go to the passenger side backseat and buckle him, handing him a spare blanket that was in the car. I get into the car as well and start the 30-minute drive home.

*Timeskip back to the house*

Tyler's POV:

I got the two littles into the house and placed them at the table in their spots. Tommy has taken over for me with Alex so I could take care of Sam for the night. I handed out the things we bought for all of the littles, which is why I have to care for Sam. We have 4 out of 7 littles actually regressed right now, which is actually an easy time because they are all quite little which means simple bedtime. Once dinner is done, me, Cami, Tommy bring up the littles for the night. We ate later tonight and with them all being younger than 3 we thought an earlier bedtime would be nice. Garrett is making us 4 bottles of angel milk for them. Alex and Benji are with Tommy, he's sitting on the toddler bed with one little curled up on each side of him. Cami is rocking Dylan in a chair calming him down from his anxiety attack he had after dinner. I'm still finishing up putting Sam in his sleeper for the night when Garrett comes in with the bottles. Dylan and Sam being in babyspace and Benji and Alex both being two and three, the two babies get their bottles first so we can feed them and get them laid down. I see Alex get up and make her way towards me while I am laying down Sam with his bottle for the night.

"Fankies Ty Ty fo hepin me," She leans into my arm a bit and I wrap my free arm around her.

"You're welcome Hearts, that's why Ty Ty is here. Now why don't you go lay down. Bottom bunk there, I don't want you getting hurt," She climbs into the bottom bunk with her new stuffy and her bottle. Her paci is on a clip so it won't get lost while she is drinking her bottle and falling asleep. I will always be here when I'm needed.
