It was 1:29 a.m when I had finally made it home.
I actually had my key this time so heading inside was no problem as I tried to be quiet.
Seeing the light in the kitchen on and whispers I cock my head to the side and slowly walk towards the kitchen.
Peaking into the kitchen I couldn't help the smile that graced my face as I took in the scene in front of me.
There standing on the counter sneaking snacks was Atlas and Damon.
I couldn't stop the chuckle from leaving causing them to turn to me.
Their eyes brighten up at me and I could feel my heart soften in my chest.
They smiled at me showing their small little dimples and I walk towards them.
"What are you guys doing?" I ask them softly.
"We're going to have a movie night! Damon can't sleep." Atlas says cheekily.
"Hmm is that right? Well how would you feel about me joining you?" I ask them.
"Yes!" They say together in excitement.
My heart is bursting with happiness and the smile wouldn't leave my face.
"Alright come here." I reach my hands out and they don't hesitate to jump in my arms.
I squeeze them to my chest a little trying to keep the tears at bay.
I put them down on the floor and looked down at them "Alright go put on a movie you guys want to watch and I'll get the snacks. Sounds good?" I ask them.
They nod before grabbing each others hands and running towards the living room.
A smile sits on my face as I shake my head at their behavior.
Picking up the snacks they had on the counter and grabbing a few juices and waters I make my way to the living room with my arms full.
I see the movie they kicked was Cars and I couldn't stop the smile on my face if I tried.
I set the snacks on the middle of the table and sit in between them.
As soon as I'm sat down they climb into my lap and lean into my sides and I just wrap my arms around them.
I could feel myself getting emotional as I continuously pushed it down.
My baby brothers, they aren't scared or wary of me.
They trust me and I can't help but get emotional at the thought.
I press a kiss to their heads and for the rest of the night I worried for nothing.
I just sat cuddled up to my baby brothers as we watched kid movies that I never got to watch growing up.
By the time we all had fallen asleep on the couch a little bit of my inner child was healed.
