My eyes shot wide open as a heard a loud crash down the hall closet to my bedroom. Trying to stay quiet I slowly sat up and got out of my bed pain shot through my back as I sat up but the pain felt familiar like a bullet had hit me in the back, the pain seemed to be inching towards my spine from my spin,like one did so many years ago. I hobbled towards the noise down the hall that seemed to come from Lucas and Taylor's room. "Lucas stop chasing us we're tired."
"Never not until evil witches are dead." I watched my children play as flashbacks of my childhood,I smiled slightly. Taylor,Lucas,Reagan and little Ethan ran around the room laughing, screaming, and chasing each other playing witches versus knights a game the twins invited and played with their father. Ethan laughing as Lucas's put him on his shoulders as they chased the girls yelling "die witches die." I stood slightly by the side of the entryway laughing quietly at my crazy kids.
"Mommy!" Taylor and Reagan shouted rushing towards me only to wrap their arms around my legs 20 sharp nails were digging into my skin I placed my hand on their heads and pull them close as Taylor laughed," Ha Ha I'm on base you can't get me."
"Dang it Taylor, you and Reagan could at least let Ethan and me win once in witch's vs knights ."
"Then that wouldn't be as much fun."
"Well we should win because Ethan's only 3 he doesn't know how to play yet."
"That's right. I'm sorry Ethan. Next time I'll let you win okay?" Taylor said as she let go of my leg taking Ethan off Lucas's shoulders his small arms wrapped around her neck as she hugged him gently and handed him to me. Reagan smiled as she let go of my legs and jumped onto Taylor's bed pulling her blanket over her.
"Tay can I sleep in your room tonight?"
"Is the monster back under your bed again." She nodded and Taylor sighed, " Okay but don't hog the bed again."
"Mama is it story time?" Ethan said his puppy dog eyes gazed at me as he said it.
"Yeah mom tell us a story. You know for the little kids." Lucas said his face slowly turning red as he cleared his voice. Taylor chuckled and crawled into her bed Reagan smiling at me.
"Of course. How about the Daughter of Thieves." Smiles spread across their faces a shout escapes their lips. Ethan quickly rushed to Lucas's bed and jumped on top of him.
"Ouch Ethan don't do that ever again."
"I sorry. " he said as his brother hugged him I chuckled quietly sitting on the Lucas's bed. "Okay once upon a time..."
