"Well I haven't been in control of any of this Adrian. If I wanted to die, I would've gone ahead and did it myself years ago. And you're not an eight year old little girl. You killed people in the ring, but do you remember how distraught you were the first time you killed someone? She's too young to understand that fact that she didn't have a choice and in this case it might've been a good thing." She growled slightly. "I didn't plan on almost dying you at all, so don't get mad at me over it. I realize you were afraid, but I was too. You realize they would have taken Calista from you if I died? Legally speaking, as it stands you have no right to keep her since you aren't related to her at all. I was terrified to think what would happen to her, I thought Sloan had killed Riley, or ripped him out of my body himself after all the pain I was in, and I was afraid to think about my kids growing up without their mom. I've been fighting like hell Adrian." She hissed, not liking his attitude. Finally she took a breath, her lungs still not fully healed as she held onto a nearby chair, still trying to catch her breath.

"Like I said, I'm sorry...." Adrian said as he gently hugged her. "I'm trying to drag things like that back up. Last thing I want is you two to start having horrific flashbacks on me. And again, we're all still shaken and stressed and the sooner we can forget about the last few weeks the better.
((LOL. And there are no good pics on photobucket of adorable ten year old boys. >_>))

((BAMF! That's all I got. arrow Boy )) Amaya just hugged Adrian back, hiding her head in Adrian's shoulder for a little while before she let go, seeming alright again. "I need a nap..." She murmured, running a hand through her hair now. "And it would probably do Riley some good for a nap."

(( *GASP* IT'S PERFECT. THAT IS THE EPITOME OF WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR. I LOVE YOU. emotion_kirakira ))
"Alright, you go to bed. I'll take care of Riley." Adrian said giving her a kiss on the cheek before going to retrieve the baby.
((...I just realized I have no idea what to do for Riley's power(s). ._.;; ))

(( biggrin Woo!))
Amaya nodded, disappearing into their bedroom a moment later.
Calista handed Riley over to Adrian, watching her mother go off to bed. Getting up, Calista followed after Amaya, stopping at the doorway. "Mommy...can I lay down with you?..." She asked in a small voice, still half hiding behind the door to see her mom already in bed.
Opening her eyes, Amaya smiled, pulling the covers back so Calista could hop in bed and cuddle with her. "Of course, come on." She told her, smiling as Calista crawled in a moment later, cuddling up to Amaya as close as she could get. Once they were settled, Amaya kissed Calista's head falling asleep very quickly after.

((I had a brainstorm. It may not be creative though... sweatdrop ))
While Calista had cuddled up with Amaya, Adrian gently bounced the baby in his arms as he walked over to his crib. Singing him a soft rendition of 'Lullaby and Goodnight' before giving him a soft kiss on the head. "Good night, Riley. We love you." he whispered before laying him down in the crib.

((I thought it was pretty creative.))
Riley fell asleep pretty quickly once Adrian sang to him, curling up in his crib as he drifted off to sleep, his thumb in his mouth. It seemed like a little peace was starting to wash over the small family finally, and for that moment, Riley just smiled, still sucking his thumb as he slept.

((I was afraid it would seem too much like Calista's, which is kinda what I was going for: bringing things to life that don't really exist.))
After tucking Riley in, Adrian gave the crib a soft shove, letting it rock slowly before he returned to his room. Standing in the doorway with a soft smile, he watched Amaya and Calista sleeping quietly for a few moments before deciding to join them. With Calista sandwiched between them, he lay a wing over the both of them before joining them in a well deserved rest.

It was lunch time when Riley started crying. Amaya groaned, crawling out from under Adrian's wing and the covers, making her way to Riley's room. "And so it begins, huh kiddo?" Amaya yawned as she carefully lifted the baby up and took him into the kitchen to feed him.

"At least it looks like Calista won't have any problems with all the crying." Adrian said coming to check on Riley as well, looking over his shoulder to see Calista still in bed.

"I think she's too tired at the moment." Amaya murmured. "This last month has been pretty exhausting for her." She yawned, holding the bottle for Riley as he began sucking on it greedily.

"Her and everyone else in this apartment." Adrian said with a slight yawn. "And not feeding him au natural?" he teased with a grin.
