Domestic Emison

"Thank you. Can I go play now ?" she grins, tilting her head and clasping her hands together

"On you go" Emily says patting Grace's bum as she runs away

"Can I go play mommy ?" I smirk standing up.

Just as she did for Grace, Em goes to pat my butt but instead she grabs it, before pulling me onto her knee

"Have you done your homework Mrs DiLaurentis-Fields ?"

"No I haven't Mrs Fields-DiLaurentis"

"You are a very naughty girl Alison. I'll have to punish you for that"

"Mooommmmmmyyyyyyy"

"Lily's shouting on you Em" I knew she was looking for Emily because the girls voices slightly change depending on who they are looking for, it's so subtle that only we can hear the difference, everyone else gets confused as to who they are shouting on

Emily pov

It is bed time for Grace and Lily

"Mommy, Mommy can you sing us a song ?"

"Of course, what song ?"

Grace smiles and begins to sing
"Oh can't you see. You belong to me. My poor heart aches with every step you take" her voice is beautiful they are both great singers, just like Ali

"Hmm... that's a lovely song Grace but why don't we sing a more... happy song"

Ali looks over to me, her eyes asking what song to sing

"The other night dear, as I lay sleeping. I dreamed I held you in my arms. But when I awoke, dear, I was mistaken. So I hung my head and I cried" I begin to sing

Alison, Lily and Grace join in

"You are my sunshine, my only sunshine. You make me happy when skies are grey. You'll never know dear, how much I love you. Please don't take my sunshine away"

Once they fall asleep Ali laughs at my song choice saying that as much as she loves that song, she said she wanted a happy song and 'You are my sunshine' isn't exactly happy.

"You want a glass of wine ?"

"Emily work starts back from summer tomorrow."

"So that's a no ?"

"That's a yes"

"You know what else is tomorrow ?"

"What ?"

"Four years since Addison's disappearance"

"That cow has already been gone for four years ?"

"Alison" I laugh in shock at Ali's comment

"What she is a ... well she was a bitch" Alison empathises the 'was' believing that she is dead

"You wouldn't have liked it if someone said that about you"

"Em everyone said that about me. Except you"

"Just like a real life beauty and the beast. I always saw the good in you"

"Are you saying I look like a beast ?" she jokes

"Oh yeah the ugliest beast ever" We both begin to laugh, that's one of the reasons I love Alison, I can make fun of her and she joins in laughing

She places her hand on my thigh and pushes herself off the couch

"Right. I'm going for a shower"

"Okay, I'll just clean the dishes" I walk over to the sink, fill it with hot soapy water; before washing the dirty plates and cups.

"Those math questions have worn me out" I giggle getting into bed

"Same they were almost impossible. Good think it wasn't adding" Ali giggles

Alison let's out a big yawn and her eyes begin to close

"Goodnight"

I kiss her and reset out alarm for the morning

"Goodnight mermaid"

Ali's pov

I am woken up by a very irritating alarm. Time for work. Emily flips around and smashes the alarm off, she falls back asleep while I get up and make some breakfast.

"Morning my baby girls" I say, sitting on the edge of Lily's bed they both groan and wriggle around in their beds. My 3 girls are definitely not morning people.

"Get up. Breakfast is ready. It's waffles" they both jump out of bed as soon as I mention waffles.

I walk back to my bedroom and wake Emily up. We all sit at the table and I get Lily and Grace orange juice and pour me and Emily some coffee. We eat our waffles and then Emily takes the girls to help them get dressed. I grab the car keys once everyone is ready and we all climb into the car on our way to drop the girls at Rosewood kindergarten, before driving to the high school.

"I'll get you in your class at break. We can look at our timetables together and moan about the new students we have. Although I doubt many new people will join the swim team"

"Okay, see you then" I really want to kiss her goodbye but there are hundreds of students in the corridor and I know that when I was in high school I wouldn't have wanted to see two teachers making out in front of me

The bell rings and my class fills with students

"Good morning everyone. Welcome back, I hope you have all had a good vacation. My name is Ms DiLaurentis" I pick up a piece of chalk and write my name on the blackboard

A girl at the front of the class raised her hand

"Yes" I ask pointing at her

"My mom told me you married Miss Fields. Why didn't you change your name ?" Normally I would get annoyed at someone for asking about my personal life but it was the first day and I wanted to make a good impression

"Well actually I did change my name I'm now Mrs DiLaurentis-Fields but I thought... we thought it would be easier for the students, if we keep our maiden names but you are more than welcome to call me Mrs Dilaurentis-Fields or even Mrs Fields if you want to but for now I am Ms DiLaurentis" I smile imagining students calling me Mrs Fields, in the 4 years I have been married to Emily no student has asked me about my last name before, until now and I was glad it is known that I am Emily's wife

Emily's pov

"Welcome back. Good to see you all in one piece again" I say as my students walk through the swimming pool

"Did you have a good holiday Emily ?" My favourite student asks me while the others are getting changed

"Yes I did Willow. Thank you"

"I saw you with the twins yesterday they are getting so big" she is always so interested in my daughters, because she recently found out that before she was adopted by her parents her twin sister had been adopted by another family

"I would love to have seen my sister"

"I'm sure you will meet her eventually Willow and yes my girls are getting bigger. Their birth seems like only yesterday" I smile at her trying to show empathy

"Could I meet them ?" Before I can answer, the rest of the class have finished getting changed

I am fine with her asking about them but I don't want her to meet them, besides Alison wants to keep our private life private so she would kill me if she knew I was telling a student about Lily and Grace.
