The first place Matt and Pidge went was upstairs. They hadn't seen their rooms in so long that they had almost forgotten what they looked like.
(((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((
Pidge stepped in hers and immediately felt a bit calm. Everything was organized and in their places. Yet, also, some of what she left out, like the scissors she used to cut her hair, were still there. Untouched.
She sat on top of her bed, rubbing her fingertips against the soft top sheet.
Eventually, the blankets called her to them, and she curled up beneath her 3 or so blankets.
"Matt? Let Mom know that I'll be down for dinner." she said to him.
"Sure." he replied.

Matt had cleaned his room thoroughly before leaving for Kerberos, but it still surprised him that it was still how he left it.
It was only a tad bit cleaner than Pidge's room, from what he saw. Then again, he didn't have a pair of scissors laying around.
Then again, he didn't have to fake an identity just to go to school.
He left.

A few hours later, the coffee table in the TV area had plates filled with all sorts of Chinese food and glasses full of cherry cola.
Colleen had the TV remote in her right hand, ready to switch inputs. They had decided to watch an older movie from her VHS collection. One called "Home Alone." A simple family movie.
Matt had tried to wake up Pidge before the movie was decided on, but since she clearly missed her bed more than words could say, he let her sleep.
They didn't care, though. They were just happy to be all together again.
