                              (Alastors pov)

I open the closet door, sure enough there he is.
*this your hangout spot or what?*
He looks away, I really need to get back to Lu.
I sit down, *whats the matter?*
*I..read papas lips. Is there really angels here..?*
God damn it.
*it's not a big deal,* I pick him up, carrying him down the hall.
He holds me, drifting asleep in my arms.
We really have to talk with him.
Among everything else.
I lay him in his bed, covering him and before closing the door.
Making my way back to my room, where Lu is balled up on the bed.
I dont say anything, I just climb into the bed and pull him closer.
Holding him in the silence while he thinks.

                                         ...

Lu's phone is ringing, he's in a deep sleep, not hearing it.
I sigh, letting go of him and grabbing his phone.
"Hello..?"
Anthonys voice comes through the line,
"Al-? Where's Lu-? You know what you're probably better anyway..Val called me late last night, vox was in their apartment. Weapons were missing, tv screens too."
"Did he give him any details?"
"Nah, he just took some stuff and left."
I sigh.
"So this could've waited until it wasn't 7am.."
"Sorry smiles, figured Lu was up, he aint much a sleeper."
"He is when im here,"
"An' thats cute n all but, he's in danger."
"I know." I yawn, pulling Lu back into my arms.
I hold him while anthony tells me what all was missing from vals apartment and places he could have gone.
"Or you know, he could've gone to..his place in the greed ring..you know."
"The place he took lu. Yes I know."
I look down at Lu, he's relaxed, which is much better then him when he's awake at the moment.
"Okay, thank you. If you don't mind I'm going to go back to sleep."
"Uh huh, bye!"
I set Lu's phone down and get comfortable again, taking a deep breath,
Before it starts ringing again.
"You've got to be kidding.." I groan, grabbing the phone again. God I hate these things.
"Hello??"
"Hey Al! My dad around? I've got some papers for redemption meeting plans and I wasn't sure if he wanted to come get them or if I should drop them off." Charlie explains.
"Hm. Well he's still asleep so, you can drop them off. I'm sure the kids will want to see you anyways."
"Okay!" She says happily. "Be there in like..an hour?"
"Okay."
I sigh, setting the phone down and climbing out of bed.
"Where are you going.." Lu mumbles.
"Making breakfast. Go back to sleep."
He takes my hand, "noo.."
I sigh, pick him up, and head downstairs.
Making food with him latched onto me.
"Morning daddy." Azzie climbs up into a chair.
"Good morning, your brother still asleep?"
"Yeah,"
I put some eggs and bacon on a plate, handing it to her.
"Yumm!"
Niffty walks in barely awake, "morning boss.."
"Morning nift,"
She yawns, climbing up onto my shoulders laying her head down on mine.
"You guys are aware I am not a bed, yes?"
"Fluffy.." she mumbles.
Azzie laughs, "you look silly.."
"You shush,"
She giggles, eating some of her eggs.
"Morning fuckers!!!" Adam yells, sitting down at the table.
"What is fuckers" Azzie asks.
...
"Adam. I'm going to rip your limbs off your body."
"Woah! Hey! Don't say that! Haha! Don't say that!" Adam spits out.
"What is it?"
"Nothing, dear. Eat your breakfast." I say.
She takes a bite, as we sit in the silence.
