Selene's POV
I opened my eyes and looked at Aurora intently. She was silly and I loved her for it. She opened her eyes and stared back at me. She yawned. I looked around. Where were Mommy and Daddy? Then she looked back at me and then looked around. Then she began to cry and I cried too.
Mommy and Daddy raced up the stairs to us and each one picked up one of us. "It's OK," Mommy called.
"It's OK, Aurora. It's OK, Selene," Daddy reassured us.
I squirmed around in Mommy's arms and spotted Aurora curled up in Daddy's arms.
I reached toward Daddy, crying harder.
Mommy and Daddy looked at each other and then Daddy took me from Mommy and handed Aurora to Mommy.
We felt silent and curled up in our parents' arms. The instant they set us down, we woke up and began fussing again.
Mommy sighed and said, "Guess we're spending the night with the girls, Stefan."
He nodded and said, "The girls seem happiest when we're all together, Leah."
Mommy nodded and said, "Yes, they do. I just want them to be happy."
I shifted and stuck my tongue out at Aurora. She stuck her tongue out at me.
"These upcoming years are going to be the best of my life," Mommy declared smiling at each of us, failing to notice us sticking our tongues out at each other.
"Behave, girls," Daddy warned.
We pouted at him and then Aurora giggled happily, but then we both yawned hugely.
Mommy and Daddy put us back in our cradle again.
I quickly wrapped my arms around Aurora and glared up at Daddy.
He smiled and said, "Mommy and I will be right back."
We nodded and Aurora and I drifted back to sleep.
