"Talia, are you awake?" I hear and I look at the clock.
"It's 3:30 in the morning. Honey, the world isn't awake." I say.
"We're hungry." I turn over and look up at Olivia sitting up on the headboard.
It was like this when she was pregnant with Ava, too. It is quite inconvenient because I would like to be sleep right now. Ugh, why could she be like me when I was pregnant with Rafe and just go downstairs and eat the ice cream with your head in the freezer. She would always catch me, and tell me that it isn't healthy. Why do we switch roles when one of us is pregnant.
"What would you like to eat, babe?" I ask, getting up and putting on my robe.
"Um, McDonald's nuggets and fries and a Whopper with cheese and....."
"Wait that's Burger King." I say and she nods and continues. "I also want a smoothie."
"A smoothie from where?" I ask.
"From here, I want you to make it." she say. I look at her as if she lost her mind. "Olivia, I can't make a smoothie right now, I will wake the kids up." I tell her.
"But, I really want a banana and strawberry and kiwi smoothie." she say and I look disgusted and she pouts and I roll my eyes and scoff, "Alright, I will think of something." She smiles and say, "Thank you, baby. I love you."
I mumble 'Yeah Yeah, I'm sure.' I hear her laugh as I walk into the bathroom to change.

I walk into the house with fast food bags and fruit bags in my hand. I throw all the bags onto the table. Suddenly, ice cream seems like the healthiest thing ever. I pull everything out of the bags and I grab the blender from the cabinet, wondering how I'm suppose to make a smoothie without waking up my children, at 4:30 in the morning.
I unwrap the burger and put it on a plate, alone with the fries and nuggets. Ava walks in as I walk away to grab a knife for the burger.
"Mama, What are you doing?" she ask. I turn towards her startled and I see her rubbing her eyes.
"Hey, sweetie did I wake you?" I ask her as I cut the burger.
"No, I went to use the bathroom and I seen the light on. What are you doing? What's all this?" she asks.
"Your mom, she wanted all of this. You should go back to sleep, you have to get up in a few."
"I could help." Ava offers.
"No, go back to bed. Come on. Help me bring this stuff to your mom. She can't have a smoothie right now. Hopefully, she forgets about it."
"But, Mama that's the only healthy thing she wants." Ava say to me.
"Yeah, I know but we can let her have it just this once, okay." I say as we walk upstairs.
"Can I sleep with you guys until its time to get up?" Ava asks.
I love this about her; it doesn't matter how old she is, she still wants to sleep in our bed with us. Rafe stopped when he was 10.
"Yes, of course. Come on." I say opening the door.
Only to find Olivia cradling my pillow, asleep.
"Looks like Mommy's asleep." Ava whispers.
"Looks that away, huh." I say.
I could have still been asleep, and it could have been me she was cuddling to. But, no she want to have a craving.
"Should we eat her food?" Ava ask smiling.
I look down at her and say, "Well, not if you don't want an Angry Mommy."
Ava looks as if she is contemplating it.
"No, lets just go to bed." Ava say and gets into bed careful not to wake Olivia. I put the plate on the desk. Keeping the sweats I have on and just take off my jacket, I get into bed and Ava looks at me.
"Mama, will you sing to me?" Ava asks. I smile and silently sing to her as she falls asleep. Once she is asleep, I smile at her.
"Talia?" Olivia asks.
"Shh, go back to sleep." I say, but she turns over seeing Ava and she shoots me a questioning look.
"She heard me downstairs." I answer.
"Oh, did you get my food." she asks.
I smile and roll my eyes, "Yes it is on the desk, but go back to sleep." I tell her.
She smiles and close her eyes.
Once I start to dose off, I fill the bed rise up and I hear little foot steps and I know it is Olivia. So, I rise up and look over at her, seeing her sit on the lounge chair eating. Its my turn to catch her. Her back is facing me. I quietly get up and walk over to her.
"Didn't I tell you to go to sleep." I say as she jumps. I swing my leg around her and I sit behind her. She leans into me and say, "We were hungry."
I kiss her neck and say, "That's okay, go ahead eat." She continues to eat as I hold her rubbing her belly, so they baby won't feel left out.
"Natalia?"
"Hmm?"
"Where's my smoothie?" Olivia asks in between bites and I laugh.

TBC??
A/N: This is just something I thought of. And, dealing with writers block I thought I should write it out. Should I continue it?
