I was fast asleep when I felt Kara get into bed. "Where were you?" I asked half asleep. "Just soothing our wailing daughter." She said passive aggressively. "What did I do?" I asked now sitting up in bed wide awake. "I asked you like three times to go get her and you never did anything! She's been crying half the night and I've been up!" She looked like she was going to cry, so I wrapped her in a hug and let her fall asleep there. Even though I had a day chalk full of superheroing to do from 8am., and it was currently 5am., I was careful not to fall asleep so that if Rhea cried I could stand up and go attend to her. It seems like my love had done a good job of calming down our little Rhea. Because until 8am., Rhea never cried, not even once. At around seven, when Kara had rolled off my shoulder and back onto the bed, I picked up our darling from her nursery in our new house and I sat with her on the couch with Rhea. I told her about all the stories I told Michelle. I even talked about my time with Michelle. Eventually I had run out of things to talk about. "It's eight babe." I heard Kara say in Kryptonian. She was upset, I could tell because until I left the house at eight thirty, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't stop talking Kryptonian. I tried to tell her that Rhea was fine. She took a deep breath in and out, and she could speak English again. I got to the DEO at eight forty. As you can imagine Alex was pissed. "Where have you been?" She asked. " "You wouldn't believe me even if I wanted to explain." I said half asleep. Taking my place at my computer she said "Try me." "Fine!" I said clearly upset. "I spent the whole night awake waiting to hear Rhea cry because I was asleep for six of the night's many hours, and Kara was the one who was soothing Rhea. She was so tired, I decided that I was going to stay awake waiting to hear Rhea cry so Kara wouldn't need to wake up again, sound believable?" I asked sounding extra pissed. "Yeah" Alex said back sounding like she was pitying me. A couple of hours later and I was done with the day's work. I had beat down seven rogue aliens, and stopped like five bank robberies. It had been a busy day, but the sight I saw made me so happy. "Rhea! Your daddy is late isn't he?" My blond happily said. "We'll surprise him with you all fed and clean and asleep!" Kara sounded like she was trying but failing to convince Rhea to be good for her. "Aaaand" She continued. "You'll sleep the whole night! You won't cry at night, and I won't get so tired that I yell at your Daddy!" Kara said not even noticing me at the door. She took Rhea and got in the tub with her. That was my cue to go inside. I made myself food and sat at the door of the bathroom waiting for Kara to acknowledge my presence. But she didn't. She even finished got out of the tub both her and Rhea, went dressed sang Rhea an old Daximite song. "I know that your Daddy and I agreed to name you Rhea but I honestly also want you to have a Kryptonian name too," she sighed and continued saying. "Maybe on your name day, I can ask Daddy if you can get a Kryptonian secondary name. Like Timara or something, I want you to have a name like mine, ending in 'ara' you know?" The little blond was half asleep at this point, but Rhea still managed to say "Thimyara" "Woah there baby girl, don't get too attached to your possibly new name! Your Daddy might still say no." Kara said with the smallest bit of sadness in her voice. "Rhea Timara Michelle Zorel-Largand! Bit of a mouthful but I think it's really pretty. Or of course we could go the route of Timara Rhea Michelle Zorel-Largand. Either way it's a mouthful." "We don't need to add Timara. It's just-" Kara cut herself off. "It's just what?" I asked.
