Josh's POV

Sunlight softly illuminated the bedroom as I laid staring at my beautiful wife. Her hair swept slightly over her eyes, her lips parted, her chest rising and falling with each calm breath she took.

This was my paradise, but it was short lived when three little bandits snuck into our room. "Daddy!" Neil yelled jumping on the bed by Hayley's head.

He was followed by Stevie who was carrying our youngest son, Joey, in her arms. She crawled up next to me.

Hayley opened her eyes and smiled, "of course" she mumbled. She sat up with the blankets pulled to her chest and took Joey from Stevie's arms.

"What's on the agenda today" Hayley asked the kids "I have dance after school" Stevie answered. "I have soccer" Neil said. "Bumblebees!" Joey screamed his new favorite word.

Hayley giggled, "okay kids go get ready for school and put your little brother back to bed" she ordered, the kids obeyed and left the room.

Hayley turned to me and smirked, "good morning sexy" she said, I rolled my eyes. "I'd love to Hayles but we have about 5 seconds before something goes wrong."

And just like that Stevie yelled, "mooooooom! Neil tied my shoelaces together!" Hayley sighed and got out of bed.

When we got downstairs the kids were at the counter eating cereal, all dressed with their backpacks on their backs.

"Bus is here!" Hayley called from the living room, I helped the kids with last minute things before sending them off for the day.

I turned to Hayley. "And you should've been at the studio an hour ago" I scolded her, she stuck her tongue out and went to take a shower.

I was getting dressed in our room when I noticed that our bathroom door was left open. I smirked and made my way into the bathroom.

I stripped and jumped in behind Hayley wrapping my arms around her waist as I began to kiss her neck.

"Hello there" Hayley whispered, turning around.

Hayley's POV

As I walked into the studio, 20 minutes late might I add, I was greeted by Jeremy but no Taylor. "Where's Tay?" I asked, Jeremy shrugged, "more wedding stuff with Baylie, probably?" Oh yeah, sometimes I'm not too smart and I forget that Taylor is getting married in a few months. Finally!

Since T wasn't here, we decided to just relax and have a writing session. Though, I had been having writer's block for a couple of weeks now. We have a few demos, but nothing felt absolutely perfect. I thought about maybe writing a song for the kids, since they were my whole reason for being these last few years, and Josh of course. 

~*~*~*

After I got home from the studio, I was exhausted, even though our writing session was just a couple hours. I called out for Josh and heard his voice from the kitchen. I walked in and smiled at him sitting at the table with a guitar on his lap, Joey across from him in his highchair.

"Well if it isn't my two big boys." I giggled walking up to Josh and kissing him gently, then picking Joey up and bouncing him. I looked into his joy filled face and it warmed my heart to see him so happy. 

"Mama!" He yelled grabbing a chunk of my hair. I giggled softly and untangled his fist, sitting him back in his highchair.

"So what have you guys been up to?" I asked Josh, sitting in front of him. 

He sighed, "he's been pretty calm today, so I took the opportunity to maybe start writing a bit."

I could tell by his sigh that he hadn't gotten very far. I reached over and grabbed his hand, giving him a small smile. He smiled back and squeezed my hand.

I looked over at Joey and grinned at him, he was asleep in his chair, how adorable! Josh looked over and chuckled, "alright JoJo, looks like it's naptime." I grinned even more at the nickname Josh gave him, I reapeat: how adorable! 

Josh carried Joey upstairs to his room across from ours and laid him in his crib, both of us gently kissed his forehead before we left. As we were walking back down the hall, Josh took my hand. 

"We have a couple hours before the kids get out of school, do you wanna watch a movie in the living room?" He asked

I smiled and tightened my grip on his hand, dragging him down the stairs and to the couch, where we cuddled up and watched Friday the 13th.
