Nico's POV:

"Mommy! Mommy! Wake Up!" One of my kids said

Will had woken up too and we both looked really asleep. If someone took a picture I would probably kill them. Will turned to me and fell back into his pillow.

"What's wrong?" I asked her

"Michael's bleeding." She said

"What!" I exclaimed

"I'll go help. You get some more sleep." Will said

"No, I'll help. It's not a problem." I said

We both got out of bed and she led us into the room. I went over to Michael and he was bleeding from his mouth. I saw he lost his first tooth.

"Hey, look you lost a tooth!" I said

"Yeah, the tooth fairy will come and give you money." Will said

"Really?" I asked

"Yeah." Will said elbowing my side

"You get money?" Michael asked

"Yeah. You can save it and buy a toy." I said

"Will the monsters take the toy?" Michael asked

"No. They won't touch you. Mommy and I won't let them." Will said

"Okay!" Michael said

"Now, we put the tooth under the pillow and at night the tooth fairy comes and takes the tooth and gives you money." Will said

"Okay, let's make breakfast." I said

"Will you help him with his tooth?" I asked

"Yep." Will said

I went out of the room. I heard Will talking to the kids about toys as he helped Michael. He came out going downstairs. He turned on the water and waited for it to get warmer.

"I'm getting salt water. It will help with the bleeding." Will said as if reading my thoughts

"Oh..." I said

"Somethings wrong." Will said

"What do you mean?" I asked

"I know that face. Something's bothering you. Tell me." Will said

He stopped mixing the salt water and wrapped his arms around my waist. He nuzzled my neck and kissed my neck. It was sweet, but I didn't want him touching me.

"It's okay. Tell me." Will said

"I didn't know we were going to do the whole tooth fairy thing." I said

"Sorry, I should have asked. He seemed so happy though. I think he wants to add another toy to his collection." Will said

"I know. I'm overreacting, but I don't want anyone to tell them. I don't want to see the hurt in their eyes if they find out." I said

"We can tell them when they are older. Don't worry. I'm going to give this to him. You can make breakfast and we can go to the park. We have Skylar and Logan today." Will said

"Again? Are they out of school or something? Is it summer?" I asked

"Nope. President's day." Will said

"Oh." I said

"I have some news for tonight. I booked us a place. The kids are going to be with Estelle and Arielle." Will said
