"Lainey. I'm going to get you!" The tall, leggy, woman yelled and ran after her bubbly 4 year old. "Mommy stop it! Daddy help!" The little girl, head covered in auburn curls, screamed.

"Oh you want me to help you? Well ok then." The man ran over and grabbed the woman tickling his beloved daughter and began tickling her.

"Derek! Stop it!" She laughed hysterically. "Derek I-I mean it."

"Get her daddy!" Lainey giggled and watched her mother squirm.

"Thanks Lainey! Derek, stop you're going to wake him up! Seriously, Stop!" She was still laughing, and now she was trying to wiggle her way out of his grasp.

"Fine, I'll stop Addy. You're no fun, you know that." Derek made a playful frown at his wife.

"Oh, I can be fun, and you know it." She bit her lip and gave him a grin.

"Mommy can we make cinamin buns?" Lainey looked up and her mother and father as they gazed at each other.

"Yeah, sweets . Let's go." Addison jumped up to her feet.

"I love days off. They're the best." Derek lay across the bed, stretching. All of a sudden he heard a cry.

"Oh, here I'll go get him Derek." Addison started over to the mahogany crib.

"No, you go down with Lainey, I'll get him." Derek walked over and picked up the their new born son.

"You sure? I can get him." She looked over at her husband trying to calm the baby boy.

"Yeah, I got it." Derek kissed him on the head and rocked him. Addison walked over and kissed Derek on the lips and then her son on the head.

"Ok Lainey, lets go make some buns!" Addison grabbed Lainey and threw her over her shoulder and carried her to the kitchen.

"Hey Nicky. Shhh. It's ok, it's ok.Daddy's got you." Derek walked around the room as the crying started to progress.

Derek? Derek? Derek, I need to talk to you. We need to talk, Derek?

The voice grew louder and louder, becoming clearer and clearer into range. Derek opened his eyes to see Addison sitting up in bed next to him, hugging her knees. She had red puffy eyes, a sight that Derek rarely saw.

2:35 am.

We need to talk…
