Broken in Two ✔️

Wake Up

"Mommy! Mommy!" I heard Archer bang on the door, I crawled out of my warm bed and went to the door throwing on a pair of shorts, glancing at the clock seeing it is 6:00am I inwardly groaned.
"Yes baby?" I opened the door
"It is time to wake up" he smiled at me.
"Thank you, Archer" I scruffed up his hair an he ran off  

"Goodmorning" I heard Vincent groan.
"Morning" I smiled at him and went to the bathroom. I brushed through my hair pulling it up in a pony tail and brushed my teeth. I then changed into a pair of leggings and a old long sleeve t-shirt.

I walked into Xander's room and woke him up, then I woke up Paxton.
"What should you wear today?" I asked Archer.
"Um how about this?" He pulled out a grey long sleeve and a pair of blue jeans.
"Perfect! Good job buddy!" I grabbed him and showered him in kisses, he screeched and I helped him into his clothes and his shoes.

"Okay let's go make breakfast." I picked Archer off the floor and he followed me into the kitchen.
"Hi mom" I heard Xander say
"Hi baby" I gave him a sweet kiss on his cheek
"I'm not a baby anymore mom" he looked down at the ground and blushed slightly.
"You will always be my baby" I kissed his head and chuckled.

I got started on breakfast, after I made it I fixed Xander and Archer an placed it at the bar for them.
"Paxton, breakfast!" I yelled and she came running down the stairs. And sat at the bar and started eating, I walked back up to the room and Vincent was showering and Ace was starting to get ready so I started making the bed.

"How badly are you hurt?" I heard Ace's distant voice.
"What?" I turned around and he was standing against the wall
"I know you are hurt." He walked over to me and gently pulled up my shirt and I looked down at my sides, to see dark purple bruises. I pushed his hands away and looked into his crystal blue eyes that are full of regret.
"I'm perfectly fine, Ace, I'm not in any pain" I held his hands and stared into his eyes.
"No you're not. I hurt you" he took his hands out of mind and ran his fingers through his hair.
"I love you Ace and I promise you didn't hurt me." I kissed his cheek.
"Okay Mace" he gave me a hug before he finished getting ready. I went back downstairs and cleaned up the kitchen and had a glass of blood. The twins already knew about the blood Luna thing.

"Are you guys ready?" I called out.
"Mommy?" I looked down at Archer
"Yes baby?" I answered him
"Daddy said I could stay at home with him" I looked up at Ace who have me a cheeky smile.
"Well that is fine" I picked him up and gave him a cheek kiss and then kissed Ace goodbye.

Vincent was driving to drop the kids off at school and was holding my hand.
"Bye, love you!" I told the kids as they were getting out of the car
"Bye mom!" They replied and then the car door slammed shut.

"Are you cold?" Vincent asked me out of the blue
"No? Why?" I asked him
"You were shaking" he looked at me with concern, I didn't even notice
"Oh I'm sorry" I blushed
"It's fine" he put his hand on my upper thigh giving it a gentle squeeze and I smiled.

We were about halfway done with the new baby's room when my phone started to ring, I quickly ripped my hands off and answered
"Hello?" I said into the phone
"Hi is this Mrs. Finch? Paxton Finch's mother?" The female voice said
"Yes this is her mother" I was getting kind of getting worried
"Well she got sick so we need someone to come and pick her up" she said
"Oh I will be right there." I then hung up
"What's happening?" Vincent asked
"Paxton got sick so I'm going to go pick her up, do you want to come?" I asked
"No, I'll help Blake finish up here and I'll just run home. You need to take care of Pax" he told me
"Okay, I'll see you at home. Love you" I kissed him quickly and went to the car.
~~
"Awe baby" I said to Paxton when she got in the car
"Mom, I'm not a baby" she pushed my hands away. I decided to go ahead and get Xander as well
"How was your day Xander?" I asked him as I started to head home.
"It was fine" he shrugged.
"do you guys want to get milkshakes before we go home?" I asked them and their eyes lit up like a Christmas tree.
"Yes!" They both said and I went to the drive thru ice cream place.
