"I..don't sing. You do it."

"No way, I have never sung in my life, I don't either."

"So singing's out then." I mumble,"Alright give him here, I'll give it a shot,"

I pass him to her.

I take Alex, and start rocking back and forth,"Come on tiger cub, please go to sleep?"

I lean absently against the wall, half watching them.

"You can go to bed if you want," I mumble to Ian, not looking up from Alex, still rocking him back and forth.

"It's alright," I shrug.

I nod, humming softly to Alex,"There's a song that's inside of my soul, it's the one that I've tried to write over and over again," I lean my head back, silently thanking Rory for the rocking chair.

I watch them silently, just keeping quiet and keeping to my corner.

I hum quietly, watching Alex calm down a bit.

"Does work then," I say quietly.

Post by Madeline Speare on Dec 23, 2007 21:19:39 GMT
I nod, not saying anything for fear I'd wake him back up.

"Want to risk putting him back to bed again yet?" I ask, still keeping my voice quiet.

I shake my head, keeping him in my arms. When you look down at them, they look perfect."Yumi was right," I whisper.

"What did she say?" I ask.

"It's worth it when they sleep,"
|

Post by Ian Hunt on Dec 23, 2007 21:42:12 GMT
I smile wryly, "Yeah, she was right then."

Post by Madeline Speare on Dec 23, 2007 21:47:21 GMT
"No kidding," I smile.

Post by Ian Hunt on Dec 23, 2007 21:48:47 GMT
I smile slightly, "Well, I'm going back to bed now he's stopped. That alright?"

Post by Madeline Speare on Dec 23, 2007 21:52:20 GMT
"Go right ahead,"
|
|
|
|
Post by Ian Hunt on Dec 23, 2007 21:57:12 GMT
"You coming anytime soon?"
|
|
|
|
Post by Madeline Speare on Dec 23, 2007 21:58:35 GMT
"In a little bit," I nod, still rocking Alex back and forth.
|

Post by Ian Hunt on Dec 23, 2007 22:03:55 GMT
"Right, night then," I smile slightly, heading out of the room and back to the bedroom.

"Night tiger," I mumble quietly, brushing a strand of hair back off Alex's forehead.

Grateful of the quiet, I lie back down again, not having to drag a pillow over my head this time.

I head back to the bedroom, slipping quietly next to Ian after getting Alex into bed.

I move my arm loosely round as she slips back into bed next to me.

I smile slightly, moving closer to him,"Hiya stranger,"

"Hey," I smile slightly.
