Haley James Scott woke up from a peaceful dream and rolled over to lay her head on her husband's chest, however instead of feeling her husband beneath her arm, she hit their 5 year old sons head. He woke up with a start.

"James," Haley said, "What are you doing in our bed,"

"I was having bad dreams," he said snuggling up to his mother. he looked down at her son as he looked up at her with the same green eyes as her husband.

"James, I told you that you are getting to old to sleep in mommy and daddy's bed," she said lifting her son out of bed.

He looked and her and stuck out his lower lip.

"We told you that if we bought you the big boy bed, then you would have to sleep in your room,"

"Mommy, don't be mad at me," James eyes started tearing up.

"She's not mad at you buddy," Nathan said from behind Haley as he sat up in bed.

"I'm not mad at you James," she said stroking his head. He had the same color hair as her, "But if you're going to sleep in here with us, we're going to take your big boy bed back to the store,"

James eyes got very wide. "No mommy. Don't take my bed,"

"Then you'll start sleeping all night in there?"

"Yes mommy. Just don't take my bed. Ill be a big boy, promise," he said.

"Go get dressed for school, big guy," Nathan said as Haley kissed the top of his head and he ran out of the bedroom.

"What are you going to do?" Haley asked turning to her husband and kissing him.

"Give him a break, Hales. He's 5," Nathan said as Haley swung her legs over the side of the bed and got out.

"We can't give him anymore breaks," she walked into the bathroom, "if we continue to let him crawl in the bed with us, he will NEVER want to sleep alone."

"Do you blame him for wanting to sleep next to you?" he exhaled deeply as he pulled his wife back into bed.

"Nathan Scott," she said kissing him once then jumping out of the bed, "He's our son."

"Just like me then," he said cockily as he put his hands behind his head and watched Haley walk into the bathroom.

"Oh God," she yelled from the doorway, "There's no hope for him."

When he heard her turn the shower on, he jumped out of bed and ran into the bathroom. Scaring Haley terribly, he jumped in the shower behind her and put his hands on her shoulders.

"Shit," she yelled, "Nathan."

"Did I surprise you?"

"Uh yeah," she turned around, "I think ya did."

"Nathan, I have parent teacher conferences today so you'll have to come get James," Haley said after Nathan had gotten back in the bed.

"Hales, you know I have a conference today,"

Haley came out of the bathroom holding the straightening iron in her hand. "Don't start this again."

"I'm sorry. I can't."

Haley went back into the bathroom and set the iron down and entered the bedroom.

"Just once, Nathan. Please just once put your son before the beloved game," she exhaled loudly.

"Damn it Haley," he slammed the bed with his fists, "It's always the same thing with you."

"It's always going to be the same thing with me until you change," she threw her towel on the bed next to him, "It was me fighting for attention in high school but damn it James will not fight for your attention."

"He's not. Hales, you know that you two are the most important thing to me in the world. You know that nothing is going to change that," he said.

She walked over to him and kissed him.

"Good. School gets out at 2 45," she said and walked back in the bathroom and shut the door.
