A/N
So this is my first songfic inspired by Malexfaith after talking about Taylor Swift and The Runaways. It's completely different to what I've ever written before, so I hope you enjoy it...
Aubrey had to admit it, that T shirt, although heavily reminding her of Beca in Freshman year, really suited Stacie, especially when she wore it with no pants, her long legs protruding below in a way that she knew drove the blonde wild. Tonight though she was making it look cute as she lifted their sleepy son from Aubrey's arms.
"You got to to put Bella to bed babe - I'll take Xander, "she said with a smile.
Aubrey watched as the long legged brunette tenderly kissed her baby son on his forehead, cradled him in her arms and padded down the hall to his room.
The baby monitor kicked into life as Stacie flicked on the nightlight, and Aubrey could hear her wife's gentle cooing and the rustling of bedclothes as she laid him into his cot.
"Want me to sing to you?" she heard Stacie murmur softly.
Aubrey loved to hear her wife to sing. She had the sweetest voice, and could move her to tears with her lullabies.
Say your prayers little one,
Don't forget, my son
To include everyone..."
Aubrey smiled and sighed with contentment - she loved Stacie with all her heart, and was the perfect mother to their children, because yes, Bella was hers too now, legally as well as emotionally. She rose to go and join her wife, and as she softly crept down the hallway, she could hear Stacie softly singing on,
Tuck you in, warm within
Keep you free from sin
Till the sandman he comes
Aubrey stopped at the doorway, her arm resting on the jamb and her head resting on one side, almost lost in the sweetness of Stacie's voice, a tear emerging from the corner of her eye.
Sleep with one eye open
Gripping your pillow tight
Exit, light
Enter, night
Take my hand
We're off to never-never land
Stacie's voice was so sweet, so soothing, that Aubrey's eyes began to flutter as well as their son's, and she sighed contentedly as Stacie sang on
Somethings wrong, shut the light
Heavy thoughts tonight
And they aren't of Snow White
Dreams of war, dreams of liars
Dreams of dragon's fire
And of things that will bite...
Sleep with one eye open
Gripping your pillow tight
Exit, light
Enter, night
Take my hand
We're off to never-never land
Stacie finished with a smile and then kissed Xander on the forehead, tucking him him in and walking softly to her wife
"You know honey," Aubrey said, shaking her head in mock annoyance, "As sexy as you look in black, you're going to have to stop wearing Metallica Ts before bed, that wasn't exactly appropriate - you'll give him nightmares!"
"Oh Bree, he's too young to understand the words, it's the sound of the voice that soothes, and you gotta admit, I make it sound awesome"
"Well, there is that..."
"So come on sexy, the kids are asleep, wanna go play 'Wherever I may Roam"? Stacie asked, making a kissy face and wiggling her hands suggestively at Aubrey's chest"...
