Lucas and Max lay asleep in the bed, Max's arms being wrapped around him while her head is laid on his chest, her thigh being over him while he lays on his back, the laptop being asleep in front of them from them being inactive on it since they fell asleep.
Lucas begins to wake up when he hears Amaya crying from the baby monitor on the nightstand, him going to slowly pull Max's arms off of him and get up from the bed. He goes to turn down the volume of the monitor to not wake Max, him going to leave out of the room and go to the nursery room across the way.
He goes over to the crib, him picking up Amaya as she cries. She still cries while he holds her, him going to lay her down on the changing bed, him taking off her onesie then her diaper.
He goes to clean her lightly before changing her diaper, her cries beginning to stop as she looks up, her lightly moving her arms. He puts her onesie back on, him going to pick her up and hold her against him, her cooing softly as he slowly rocks her.
He rubs her back softly while he moves in a rocking position, him going to leave out of the room when he hears his phone ring, him going over to the room to pick it up from the nightstand and answer it, him going back to the nursery room. "Robert?"
"Hey Lucas." Robert greets, him being in bed with Ashlyn, her being sound asleep. "Sorry to be calling so late."
"No worries." Lucas says while he goes to sit down in the rocking chair, him beginning to rock back and forth softly while rubbing Amaya's back, him holding his phone to his ear with his shoulder. "What's going on?"
"Well my guards just told me the news of Sue." Robert says. "It's done. The news will air tomorrow morning."
Lucas nods his head. "Everything will follow in a orderly fashion yes?"
"It will yes." Robert nods.
"Thank you Robert." Lucas says to him.
"You're welcome." He responds. "Get some sleep."
"I definitely will."
Lucas hangs up the phone, him leaning back in the rocking chair while going to close his eyes. He feels a little smile going to cross on his face, his breaths being slow and content. "Checkmate mother." He says to himself.
He looks down at Amaya, her being sound asleep on him. Lucas goes to slowly get up, him putting her back in her cradle, putting her pacifier back in her mouth and softly rubbing her stomach, watching how she lays sound asleep, the soft baby music still playing in the room.
Lucas comes back in the room, him going to throw away the trash on the nightstand and situate things back neatly, him closing the laptop and going to place it perfectly on the end of the nightstand on Max's side, him going to put it on the charger as well.
He gets back in the bed, Max's arms going back around him and Lucas pulling her in closer, giving her a soft kiss before he falls on back to sleep.
••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
Max lays on her stomach while her legs lightly dangle to and fro in the air, Amaya being in front of her laid on her back, Max holding the bottle for her while she softly drinks, Max's other hand lightly tickling Amaya's small hand with her finger, Amaya's hand slowly wrapping around her finger. "Awwww." Max smiles.
Lucas lays asleep on the other end of the bed, Max's legs facing the headboard of the bed, him being laid on his stomach with his arms under the pillow.
Max looks at the news on the TV, her staring at the news reporter who stands in front of the Indiana State Prison, her going to take a bite out of her breakfast burrito while looking at the TV.
