The door creaked open lightly letting light into the darkened room. In the bed lay two deeply sleeping figures locked together in a loving embrace. A smaller figure tiptoed into the room, and crawled up into the bed.

"Daddy." the small kit whispered quietly, while gently shaking his father. "Daddy, please wake up." he whined softly.
The larger of the three beings woke up with a startled snort, and groaned as the light hit his bright blue eyes. It took him a moment to gain his sight and for his brain to register the situation.

"What's wrong Todd?" He ask the child sitting on top of him, looking at the clock on the small night stand. It read 2:34 am. He look back at the small kit and he could see into his son's eyes, he was afraid of something. The young boy started to cry.

"I-I got up to use the p-potty, but when I came back I-I-I C-couldn't find Ian an-anywhere!" The young fox started to cry louder, this caused the female to stir.

"What's the matter baby?" she asked taking the child into her arms and cooing him gently. While the the older male got out the bed quickly.

"I-I can't f-find Ian." The baby fox cried again. The rabbit watched her husband rush out of there room.

"Shh baby, it's alright. Daddy will find him. It's okay." She stroked his head trying her best too calm him down.
A few minutes passed and the elder fox came back into the room, holding a sleeping child in his arms.

"He's his father's son alright." He chuckled lightly. "I found him in the kitchen, next to the open fridge." he said as he lied the young boy down, with tomato paste turning his white muzzle red. "Hey buddy, wake up a minute." He spoke, gently shaking the young child.

"Tails dear, let him sleep, I'll get a rag and clean him up." The rabbit said getting up "Besides I got Todd back to sleep and I don't want him to wake up either, and you know who loud Ian is."The two laughed lightly as the looked at their friends' son, who was snoring loudly at this point.

"Even in his sleep he could outdo a train." Tails pointed out. "Like father like son." He laughed, as his wife passed by him gently, and kissed him softly. " I love you Cream." He said taking her into his arms, and embracing her.

"I love you to dear." She kissed him again "Now, I really should clean him up, could you take Todd back to bed?"

"Sure thing babe." Tails said, letting his wife go, although not willingly. He picked up his own son and carried him gently back to his room. He sat down next to the bed that looked like a familiar blue plane, and lovingly watch his son sleep. After a few minutes passed he heard light footstep walk into the room, he watched as Cream lied the little blue wolf down on the small cot. She walked up to him and put her hand on his shoulder and squeezed.

"Hard to believe he's already four." he said looking up at his wife, whom he loved with his whole being, and back at his child.

"I know, it seems like only yesterday he was born." She said as she kissed him lightly on the head. "Let's go back to bed now." She took him by the hand, and walked back with him their own room.
