No One's POV
*3 month time skip*
As Skylar and Wren walk through the city, men and women, family and friends walk past, not yelling nor speaking their hellos, but a whisper of a nod saying good day.
Wren plays with Rylee's hands while Logan naps on Skylar. Napping, Logan is always napping. But that's usually how it is with him. Eat, diaper change, nap, repeat. That's besides the point though. This little family is taking the babies on a train for the first time and god do they pray it goes alright. As they enter the subway, weaving in and out of swarms of people coming from left and right, Skylar notices a man walking on to the train. Now usually this would mean nothing but something about this man seems off. His dark blue, almost black pants, black coat and musty grey eyes caught her attention.
"Babe I don't think this is a good idea anymore."
"Now Skylar, don't be silly. It's your only day off in a month and we need to get out of the house," Wren hushes Skylar's thoughts before she can get another peep out. They continue on to the train and sit across from the man, Skylar holding onto Logan just a little tighter. She grabs a soft, blue blanket with cats all over it, she got from her grandfather and wraps it around him, trying to protect him just a bit more.
*Flash back*
"Skylar!"
"Grandpa," Skylar exclaims as she runs into his arms. It was just a few days after Christmas and Skylar's 12 year old brain was more than excited for her gifts and to see her grandpa. Pete holds her in a hug for a minute before putting her down so they can go sit and open gifts. As Skylar rips into the wrapping paper, a soft fleece fills her senses and makes her smile. She grabs the blanket and shouts "thank yous" to her grandparents and cuddles into the blanket.
*Flash back over*
"Sk- Skylar," Wren asks while waving her hand in front of her face.
"Hmm?"
"You okay babe? You were seriously spaced out and you have tears in your eyes."
"Oh, uh yea I'm okay," Skylar responds. "Just thinking about my grandpa. This is the blanket he gave me when I was little and since he passed It's one of my only memories of him." Wren just kisses the side of Skylar's head and smiles sadly at her.
