As I tuck Aria into bed the night before Christmas, she asks me a very important question. A turn around of a small child's life. One of the first steps into adulthood. Something that almost every parent regrets hearing. "Daddy, is Santa real?", she asks softly.

I stay quiet for a few moments before crouching down next to her bed. "Well, I think that's something you have to ask yourself. Does anyone really.. know? Do you feel deep in your heart that he's real?", I ask her. She nods.

"Then maybe.. he is real. It's what YOU believe. Not what other people think. Just like some people believe in Jesus, others don't. But that doesn't mean that either person is wrong?", I explain. She nods her head but I'm not sure if she understands. Hell, I don't even think I understand.

"I do believe in Santa" she whispers happily. I smile and kiss her head.

"Then he is real", We say our goodnights and I turn to walk out. As I'm walking out a hand grabs me and pulls me away. He then begins to stab me again and again, my blood covering the ground.

Lawl, just kidding. It was just Connor pulling me away from the room so he could talk. "That was intense" he says when we get to our bedroom. I shrug and sit on the bed, then begin to take my clothes off. To go to sleep, sickos. "I mean, wow. And she seemed to understand every word".

"Well, she's smart, Con. Really smart", I reply. I get up to brush my teeth in the bathroom and he follows me. I sigh as he continues to ask questions while I brush my teeth. I spit the toothpaste out and rinse my mouth, then turn to him. "Connor, I wasn't going to tell her no, and I wasn't going to tell her yes. Just stop talking about it", I go back into the bedroom and get in the bed. When he starts to speak again, I turn the beside lamp off and close my eyes.

He finally gives up and turns the light off. He gets in the bed with me and wraps his arm tightly around my waist. "I wasn't saying anything bad about it, honey. I was just saying that..." he sighs. "I don't know what I was saying". He kisses my neck gently, causing shivers to form on my arms. "I'm sorry".

I turn in his arms and peck his lips. "Sometimes that's all it takes" I tease. He rolls his eyes and we both fall asleep in each other's arms.

"WAKE UP, FATHERS! OH MY GAAAAAWD WAKE UUUUPPPP!", Aria yells as she jumps on me. I groan and Connor sits up, pulling her off of me and holding her down. "Preeessssseeennntttsss". I chuckle and get out of bed.

I start to walk out but Aria and Connor just sit there. I raise my eyebrow. "Well? Are we going to open presents or are we just going to sit here?", I smirk. Aria gasps and jumps up, running to the living room.

I make my way downstairs and Connor goes to get Joseph. I sit on the floor as Aria yells at Connor to hurry. I get out the camera (the picture one, not the video one) and get it ready. Connor comes trotting down the stairs with the small child in his hands. He puts him down on a blanket and hands him a small box.

I hand Aria one of her presents and she tears into it. "Easy, child", I say. She giggles and goes a little slower. She opens it, then pulls out the soft blanket. She gasps when she sees that it's a Justin Bieber blanket. But from like, 2009. She squeals and hugs it to her.

My babies open there presents and Aria hugs me tightly. Joseph just chews on some of his toys. I smile at Aria and she runs to the tree and gives Connor a very small bag. He raises his eyebrow at me and I shrug. He opens it, revealing a small paper that says "Family video? You down?". He looks up quickly and I nod.

He runs over to me and hugs me tightly. "Oh my god, Cam. This is so great. Are you sure?", he says excitedly. I peck his lips and he hands me a small bag. "I guess I found my last video". I raise my eyebrow and take the bag. This bitch got the same idea from Aria. Tf?

I open it and it's a print out of a tweet. The tweet is from Connor and it says "My last video is really soon... ideas?" I smile. "I'm all yours". I kiss him softly and look over at our babies. Aria is playing with her new dolls (Selena Gomez doll and a Shawn Mendes one. How dare you think my baby is basic). I sigh and look at Connor.

"This really is the best Christmas ever"
