(Annica is 11, Aiden is 15 & Ethan is 2)

"M-m-mm-" Ethan mumbled. "What baby say it" I smiled. "Maamaaa" he dragged. "Good boy!" I said kissing his cheek. "Now say dada" Nate smirked. "Baba" Ethan mimicked. "No, da-da!" Nate chuckled. "Ba ba!" Ethan giggled. "Why is it all three kids never wanted to say dada?" Nate pouted. "Because baby, they know your a dork" I giggled. "Da!Da!" Nate said slowly poking at Ethan's cheeks. He clearly didn't like it and started crying. "Oh baby, no tears" I laughed wiping them as they fell. He pouted, "No pouting either! Mama doesn't like it when her baby is upset" I said. He started smiling, "There you go! Now Ethan say dada" I said tickling his sides. "Duh duh" he attempted. "Damn he can't do it. This isn't my child I protest" Nate said. "He's definitely yours, for one. He's got your baby face. Literally." I giggled, pinching Nates cheeks. "Stopppppp!" He laughed pushing my hands away. "When does Annica get back from Sam's?" I asked. "Tomorrow night I think.' He said scrolling through his Twitter. "Why?" He smiled. "It's quiet without those two" I giggled. "I think Aiden likes Cass Nathan" I said with a smile. "Why you say that?" He asked sitting his phone next to his hip. "Because, ever since they met in school he's been talking about her and always with her and Jace" I said. "Well maybe he does. He is fourteen ya know" he said pushing my back. We kept talking and eventually Nate was sound asleep with his head on my chest as I played with his baby curls around his neck. He loves when you play with his hair. I smiled and pulled out my phone. I opened snapchat and took a picture for my story, "baby fell asleep on me😍💞" "Are you taking pictures of me again?" he mumbled. "No?" I asked. "Aren't you asleep?" I laughed. "No?" He said confused. "Exactly. Go back to sleep" I laughed. He didn't hesitate to argue, so instead he just curled back up into my side, hugging my hips. "Goodnight angel" I mumbled, kissing his forehead. Ethan started crying, "Damn. Baby let go" I said prying his arms off me. "No!" He pouted. "Babe Ethan's up. I'll come back with him." I said getting up and making my way to Ethan. "Baby shhhh" I said calming him down as I grabbed him. He calmed down and sighed in my arms.

The next day :

"Mama look what Uncle Sammy gave me!" Annica came running in Nate and I's room. "What honey?" I smiled. She held up a giant bear with some candy. Oh joy. "Wow, did you say thank you?" I smiled. "Mhm!" She smiled happily. "Did you guys have fun?" Nate asked holding Ethan. "Yeah, Julianna painted my nails and Uncle Sammy made me yummy food" she smiled. "Good" he smiled back. "I need to go get Aiden from Jace's house do you want to come?" I asked her. She nodded. "Let's go then" I said hopping up. "Daddy doesn't get to go?" Nate pouted. "You can watch the little monster" I smiled at him, kissing his cheek. "NO! I wanna go!" He pouted. "Ethan pout with me!" He said. "Damn you boys" I said giving in. "Get in the car" I said. He smirked happily and grabbed Ethan's blanket. We all got to my car and put Ethan in the backseat buckling him in. "Annica seatbelt" I said starting the car. "I know I know" she said putting down her iPod and buckled up. We drove off to Jace's house, "Mama play daddy's song!" I squinted at Nate, "Why is she listening to your music?" I asked. "It doesn't have pretty language, babe" I said to him. "Play Outro" he said. "OUTRO PLAY OUTRO!" Annica yelled. "Annica quiet Ethan is sleeping" I said. Nate turned on Outro and started singing. 15 minutes later we arrived at Jace and Cassie's house. "Hey Ana!" Any said answering the door. "Hey, Amy! How are you?" I asked. She shrugged, "I've been alright. Trying to keep up with the kids, you know" she said. I laughed. "Aiden, come on bud. Your dad, brother and sister are in the car waiting" I said. He nodded and grabbed his stuff. "Bye guys" he waved. "Thank you Mrs. Amy for letting me come over" he said. "Not a problem buddy, your always welcome here." We waved goodbye and waked out to the car. Aiden grabbed my arm lightly, "Mama can I tell you something?" He asked. I nodded confused. "Anything bud. What's up?" I asked. "I don't know but everytime I'm here I feel weird around Cass. I think I like her mom" he said looking at me. "And I don't know what to do" he sighed. "Aw baby! How about you ask daddy, I'm sure he can tell you just what to do" I smiled. "I will" he smiled. We both got in the car to hear my baby screaming. "Why is he screaming?" I asked. "Because we aren't leaving until he stops" I said. Nate climbed out and picked Ethan up from his seat, rocking him back and forth. Ten minutes goes by and still no lightening up of his cries. "Give me him" I said to Nate. He placed Ethan in my arms carefully, "Quiet baby it's okay" I mumbled to him. His face softened to a small smile looking up at me with his big grey eyes. "Ma" he started. "Mama" he smiled. "Goofy let's go home" I laughed kissing his forehead.

"Lil me what's for dinner!" Nate yelled from downstairs. "I don't know Nathan, I'm busy being a mother right now" I laughed as I changed Ethan. "What's that suppose to mean?" He chuckled. "Am I not being a father or something?" He asked. "No, I didn't say that. I'm saying I'm busy right now" I said, playing with Ethan's toes. He hates when you do that. "I got a taste for like...pizza or something" he said walking into Ethan's room. "Should I or- what the hell are you doing?" He said laughing at me. "What?" I laughed. "I'm playing with his toes. He hates that" I giggled. "Anyways, as I was saying" he laughed, "Want me to order pizza?" He asked. I nodded, "That's fine" I smiled at him. "Did Aiden talk to you?" He asked scratching his neck. "About Cass?" I asked. He nodded nervously. "Yeah he did. I told him to ask you to show him some of your ways." I giggled. "Not the fuckboy ways but the sweet Nathan ways" I smirked. "HEY! I am not a fuckboy!" He pouted. "Now you aren't, but when I wasn't in the picture and when I first met you, you were" I said, watching his jaw drop. "I was not a fuckboy with you!" He pouted more. "Quit pouting you big baby! Yous just mad cause I'm right. Babygirl always right. Lil mama stay winning" I smirked raising my hand for a high five. "You right you right" he laughed, hitting his hand on mine. He kissed my cheek, "I'm gonna go order pizza okay? Don't have to much fun in here" he chuckled leaving me and Ethan. "Mama?" Annica said walking in. "Yes babygirl?" I smiled as she sat on my knee. "Can you make me some hot chocolate? Daddy won't make it" she pouted. "Yes I can, let's go"
           "I just told her she can't have that, why does she now?" Nate said. "I said she could have it, Nate. Let it be" I said as he set the pizza down. "Whatever, let's eat" he sighed. "What's wrong?" I asked. "Nothing is wrong" he said. "Nathan Montgomery-" he stopped me. "I said, nothing. is. wrong" he groaned. "Nate please. What's up?" I pouted. "I just don't like how I said she couldn't have that but you went and gave it to her. What happened to discipline?" He asked. "You're seriously upset over that?" I mumbled. "I shouldn't be I know" he said standing up and going out back while I fed Ethan. "Mommy I'm sorry I made you and daddy fight" she whined. "It's not your fault babe" I assured her. "Aiden can you feed him while I go talk to your father?" I asked. He nodded and took the spoon from me.

"Nate, sit" I said pointing to the cement patio brick around the fire pit. "No, I wanna stand" he said. "Well I said sit. So sit" I said. He sighed heavily and sat down. "Why are you so upset?" I asked sitting next to him, rubbing his neck. "I don't know, I guess I'm just super crabby and that just hit me" he said resting his head on my chest. "Baby don't let little things bother you, got it? That's how shit like this happens and Annica thinks that she made us argue. Let's go back inside and eat?" I smiled down at him. He nodded and stood up. "Stasia?" He said looking down. "What baby?" I questioned holding his hand. "Thank you," he said just barely whispering. "For what?" I said confused. "Dealing with me and my bipolar ass mood" he said with a giggle. "Nathan it's fine I swear. I'm bipolar too, am I not?" I said. "Well yeah but not like how I get" he laughed. "Just shut up goofball. I still will always love you" I said kissing his forehead, "Now like  I said before, let's go back inside." As we stepped inside, Annica looked up from her plate, tears in her eyes. "Babygirl what's wrong?" I said rubbing her back. "I always make daddy mad at you!" She sobbed. "No you don't angel! Why do you think that?" I asked. "Cause! Everytime he says no I ask you and when you say yes he gets upset at you for it" she sighed. "Baby, that's not true. I'm just tired and little things bother me right now. Don't ever blame yourself for my actions okay? What you guys do doesn't effect me okay?" Nate said she nodded and rubbed her eyes. "Da-da!" Ethan screamed. "Baby" he smiled picking him up. "I love you babygirl, never think otherwise" Nate said bending down to kiss her forehead, wiping her tears away. She nodded, "your still my cuddle bug" he smiled at her, tickling her sides. She cracked a smile and nodded, hugging him. As we finished eating, Ethan began to get crabby. "Should I go put him to bed?" Nate asked. "Once he's done eating and is changed yeah" I said yawning. "I got it tonight"
