Hey, guys, here's another chapter for you before I leave on vacation which I won't be back from until a couple of weeks. I regret not updating more as I wanted, because my lazy ass wouldn't stop procrastinating all the damn time. Well...that, and because I have a new girlfriend who I met on Tumblr a few weeks ago. She's absolutely amazing and beautiful, in case you're wondering.

So just go read and remember to leave a review! See you guys again soon!


Family

Jenny and Vastra heard them coming long before they even set foot in the room, moving like a wild stampede through the hall.

"Mum! Mummy! It's time to wake up!" Announced Alaya and Katy, whose tiny bodies were bursting with so much energy.

"Come here then, you little buggers!"

Jenny opened her arms and caught the twins in a crushing hug, peppering their faces with kisses which made them giggle.

"One mummy is awake now, but green mummy is still sleeping," said Alaya, who had crawled across the bed to poke at the big, snoring lump that was Vastra.

Jenny chuckled softly and asked, "Well, my darlings, what do you suggest we do to wake green mummy up?"

The two girls rubbed their chins and put on their thinking faces, which Jenny thought was very similar to Vastra and was just as adorable. It didn't take long for both their faces to light up when they've found an idea, also very similar to Vastra.

"Pillow fight!" Exclaimed Katy and Alaya in unison.

The girls each grabbed the largest, puffiest pillows they could find and on the count of three, used them to deliver a devastating wake-up call onto Vastra's face.

That seemed to do the trick, for the Silurian's eyes immediately flew open upon impact. Vastra tried to blink the lingering weariness out of her eyes before looking up to see three angelic faces watching over her.

"Rise and shine, Mummy," sang the twins gleefully. "The sun is already up, so that means we must be, too!"

Jenny, Alaya, and Katy couldn't help but dissolve into laughter once again. A blissful smile spread across Vastra's face at the sight. She would willingly let herself get hit in the face everyday, if it meant she could always wake up to seeing her family like this. Her beautiful family. Even after all these years, Vastra still had to remind herself that this is real, and not a dream.
