Two Lies, One Truth

Chapter 19

Alfie's P.O.V
Around 5 in the morning, I heard some muttering and whimpers. It scared the hell out of me and it continues. I spring out of bed and make my way towards the noise. Soon I realize that it was one of the kids and open the door. I see both kids up and Mason crying.
"Hey Mase, what happened?" I whisper.
"Night-mare," he whimpers. I'm assuming the crying woke Melody up because she seems fine.
"You want to sleep with Mummy and I?" I offer. They nod and carry the both of them back into our room.
"Alf...." Zoe moans. I set the kids down on the bed and Zoe slowly wakes up.
"Hey baby, what's wrong?" She concerns.
"Bad dream," Mason answers.
"Aww come here," she coos. Zoe moves to the side leaving space for the both of them to fit inside. Melody took her place next to me and Mason was next to Zoe. Before I know it, we all end up fast asleep, all snuggled up.

Zoe's P.O.V
We all slept in and I woke up at 11. Alfie was still asleep and seeing Melody and him all snuggled up was the cutest. I pull out my phone, take a quick picture, and check to see if I've gotten any emails or texts from Angela so far nothing. I don't know if that's a good thing or bad but either way I'm insanely worried. I go back to my camera roll and smile at the new picture. I edit it to match my theme and post it to my Instagram with the caption "Sleepy Snuggles". I quickly post it and read through some of the comments. Mason wakes up and flashes me a smile.
"Morning baby," I whisper. I sit up and lay his head on the crook of my neck.
"You okay now?" I ask.
"Yeah," he smiles.
"Good," I conclude, kissing his cheek.
"Morning," Alfie smiles, waking up.
"Morning," I respond.
"Morning Mummy," Melody cheers.
"Morning baby," I kiss. Alfie pulls out his camera and Mason convinces him to watch TV. It was the Muppets Christmas. We all got snuggled up and Nala decided to join in.
"Hey there Nala bear," I perk. She squirms around and takes a seat on Mason's lap. Alfie volunteered to grab us some breakfast and bring it upstairs.
"Thanks gorgeous," I smile, pecking his lips.
"That's alright," he replies.
"I love mornings like this. Snuggled up in bed with the kiddies and Nala, eating breakfast, got a Christmas movie on," he informs.
"We should do this more often," I respond. I needed to spend time with the whole family as much as possible. It might not ever be like this anymore. It was now 12:15 and I needed to get the video filmed. I've finally decided on starting the series with Melody and I. I don't know what we're going to do but it'll be fun regardless. Mason and Alfie went downstairs to film their video while I start setting up for ours. Melody was feeling a little extra clingy today and refused to go anywhere else other than where I was. I sat on my vanity and began my makeup with her in my lap. Once I finish I brush out my hair and put hers up into two Dutch braids. I grab a nice shirt for the both of us and start recording.
"Hey guys, so today I have my little princess with me. Say hello," I start.
"Hello," she smiles.
"Okay since a lot of you have been requesting for Melody and I to do a little series on my channel, just like Alfie and Mason have. If you haven't seen their gaming video, it'll be linked bellow. But yeah I finally decided that Mel and I should have a go. You excited?" I ask Mel. She nods and messes with her hair.
"Okay so for the first video I thought it was only right to start off with a Q&A. First question, what is Melody and Mason's full name? Mason's is Mason Troy Sugg and Mel," I answer.
"Melody Gabriella Sugg," she beams.
"Well done. Next question, will Mason be featured in your videos as well? Oh definitely and she'll be on Alfie's channel also," I reply.
"What is Melody's favorite movie?" The question states.
"Umm Frozen and Lilo," she answers.
"Next question, do you have a name for the series yet? If not I recommend Keeping Up with the Suggs, laughing crying emoji. Oh my god that is amazing," I chuckle.
"Do you like that?" I ask Mel, who nods.
"Alright it's settled Keeping Up with the Suggs it is," I laugh. We answer a couple more questions and end the video. We all ordered a GBK for lunch and then heard the door bell ring. I answer it and revealed a serious looking Angela (lawyer).
"We need to talk about the case..." She informs. I gulp and quietly invite her in.

There's a new update for you and sorry about how boring it was. Also I don't know much about court and law so not everything will be super accurate. But anyways have a great day and thanks for reading. Bye!
