The once loud house was quiet, with only low sounds of blues clues playing in the back. Santana and Kyhier sat very close together Santana cradling Oceans body.

They both watched closely how she sucked on the lilac purple pacifier, hand rubbing over Santana's cheek and her feet pushing on Kyhier's stomach.

"She so pretty" tho they had both seen Ocean in little space many times; she always ranged from the ages two to five. In little space she was always very hyper jumping everywhere or even coloring random things she saw

Santana had explained every stage of little space there could be to Kyhier. But a rear one was baby space. Baby space is where the caregiver has to fully take care of their little one's needs more than they usually do.

Her mind that usually knew when she was hungry, or knew what she wanted to do no longer could think that big.

Whenever Ocean wants anything in baby space it now makes her cry due to her not knowing how to form the words to say it

The boys had been patiently waiting for Ocean to go into baby space just once. Apart from them wanting to be fully devoted to taking care of her in baby space- it also ment that she put her full trust in their ability to care for her

Even if Ocean didn't realize it; baby space was a big step in their relationship. Baby space gave  a lot of emotional trust and intimacy

"You want it mama?" Santana's heart fluttered looking at her red agitated face. Her mouth opened, tongue slapping her top gum looking at the bottle filled with warm honey milk

Instead of continuing to tease her, he put the nipple in her mouth watching her large gulps and how she kicked her foot hitting Kyhier in the face

"That hurt baby" Kyhier pouted and moved so he sat on the edge in front of Santana; his body bending to kiss all over Oceans face. Her giggles got loud while the milk spilled out of her mouth falling on her cheeks

Before it could touch her large shirt she wore Kyhier wiped it with a bib and left her alone instead giving her a finger to hold.

He could tell she was very close to going to sleep the way she laughed at everything, and how her eyes slowly blinked shutting for a minute

"She's been pushing away little space"

"Huh?" Kyhier stomach dropped at the newly found news. Him and Santana always made sure that she was comfortable enough to switch no matter what the circumstance was 

"Something has been stressing her out to the point of her not wanting to go into the mindset.  Her pushing it away made her regress into a younger age" the room grew silent.

Both of them becoming hurt by the lack of communication and not knowing the reason to why she would push away a mindset that allowed her to be free

"You think it could have happened that night she had the project?" the night they had found her sleeping on the floor; they also discovered the faint tear marks. They knew there was no project.

They both just kept quiet wanting her to come to them about her problems. For her to just trust them enough to handle it

"We'll just have to have a serious conversation when she's big Ocean." at the end of his words Ocean's bottle fell making her loopy eyes snap open. Santana smiled at her and sat her up patting her back

"Yea mama. You're small Ocean. Too little to understand huh?" Ocean looked at him dumbly laughing loudly out of tiredness

Kyhier took her from Santana and bounced her a little while standing up

"We gone get you back to your happy self baby" kissing all over her face he rubbed her back humming to the blues clues theme song
