It was a dark, winter's night. The cold wind was swirling around his body as he laid by the fire. It was late. Almost midnight. The only noises that were present were the small crackles of the flames produced by the fire and quiet breathing.

He smoothed down his oversized pyjamas and hugged his penguin plush. The softness of the plush was his only source of comfort at the time of when he was found...but not anymore.

He closed his eyes, listening to the heartbeat of his older brother and sister. His brother was cradling him slowly, like he was a newborn, the feeling when his chest moved up and down with every breath he took was comforting.

Lynette's head laid on her twin's shoulder with one hand on Freminet's head and the other on the freezing wood boards that lined the floor. Her hand was softly stroking Freminet's head was also comforting to him, the way her fingers crept through his blonde strands..it reminded him of his mother.

They weren't supposed to be outside their respective rooms after curfew, so they'll all get a proper scolding from 'father' in the morning. But none of them cared, they all perceived this to be quality sibling time, a time where they all get to relax as a family after a busy day.

Finally, with the sound of the crackling fire, the gushing of the wind, and his siblings around him. Freminet was finally able to fall asleep, his grip on his penguin slowly becoming more and more non-existent as he slowly drifted off.

Lynette lifted her head up slightly, still continuing to stroke Freminet's golden hair. "Lyney, he's asleep now", she whispered to her male counterpart, being very careful not to wake the sleeping boy up.

A small nod came from Lyney, eyes not leaving his baby brother's face. "I know, but let's stay here for the night" he replied, still being extremely quiet as to not wake his baby brother up. He continued rocking Freminet in his arms as the boy snuggled into his chest. Lynette sighed in annoyance, "you know we're going to be in big trouble, right?", which earned a small chuckle from Lyney.

He continued rocking Freminet, however, he turned his head to meet his sister. "It'll be too much trouble for us to carry him back, don't worry I'll take the blame", Lynette could feel a smile radiating from her twin's face as he spoke. She nodded in response as she carefully put her head back on Lyney's shoulder, "good night Lyney".

"Good night Lynette...sweet dreams Fremi", he replied as he planted a small kiss to the top of his baby brother's forehead. Which responded in a tiny smile
