part of my unexpected universe probably making a part two to this sorry this is so long, and a big thanks to greysanatomyamelink for reminding how much i love writing this series!!!
"Hey we're home!" Link announced coming through the door with their daughters on his hip. He could tell by the look on his wife's face she was on the verge of tears. "Hey what's going on?"
"This makes no sense." Amelia's voice broke mid sentence.
"Mommy don't cry." Scout begged, it upset him seeing his mother upset.
"Can you help him? I'll clean up Addie." She took the girl from links arms, and link could hear the girls mother ask how soccer practice was, and heard his daughter explain how she hated it.
"What do we have here? Long division?"
"Yeah, is mommy okay? Why'd she get so upset over math?" Scout innocently asked.
"Well her hormones are in overdrive right now because she's pregnant. So that can make her kinda emotional. So things that don't normally upset her can upset her now." Link tried to explain it simply for their son to understand.
"Oh like when Addie was in her belly and she'd cry when my dinosaur action figure would bite her dinosaur action figure?"
"Exactly." Link ruffled his sons dirty blonde hair and directed his attention towards the math sheet. After a half hour the girls came back into the kitchen both in their pajamas. To find the boys still working on the worksheet.
"You guys figure it out?"
"Not yet." Link was embarrassed to admit, but he didn't seem to understand it either.
"This is ridiculous." Amelia sighed taking out her phone and putting the problem into her calculator.
"Mommy we can't do that we have to show our work." It took everything in the boys mother not to roll her eyes.
"It'll be fine. If you get in trouble it's on me. But this is ridiculous if two surgeons can't figure it out they can't expect a third grader to."

"There was no reason for that to of been as difficult as it was." Amelia complained still upset about the math problem as she crawled into bed.
"He'll figure it out in class tomorrow. I wouldn't worry about it." Link distractedly said, other things on his mind worrying him.
"You okay? You seem off." Amelia stated once curling into her husband.
"Yeah, just worried about Addie."
"Why?" Amelia's head shot up so she was looking at him.
"Well when I picked Addie up, I showed up a bit early. So they were still practicing, and the coach asked them to pair up and Addie didn't go to anyone. She waited until someone had to go up to her cause she was the only one left."
"Well, I mean. She may just not have friends on the team."
"You don't find it concerning that every time we tell her it's time for soccer she loses her mind and starts crying?"
"She just doesn't want to stop playing with her toys."
"Amelia." Link sighed, his girlfriend didn't understand what he was trying to say. "I don't think she has any friends on the team."
"Well she isn't going to be friends with everyone. Maybe she just doesn't like soccer, and if that's the case she doesn't have to go anymore she hates it anyway."
