Sorry about this, but I had to repost this chapter because originally there was a song in it and because of the new guidelines we can't have unoriginal songs in our fanfics anymore, so I had to remove it. That is why this chapter is so short, as well as a couple others. Sorry bout the trouble.
Autumn knocked on the girls' room door. She could hear whimpering inside. "Kia, can I come in?" The whimpering continued and Autumn decided not to wait for permission. Autumn opened the door and stepped inside. She walked over to Kia's bed and saw her sleeping. Kia was whimpering in her sleep. She was having a bad dream.
Autumn sat next to the youngest sister and gently rubbed her head. Autumn began to sing Kia's favorite song softly.
Mikey was walking by the room when he heard someone singing beautifully. He stopped and moved to the door. He opened the door and listened as Autumn sang to her sister.
Kia's whimpering stopped as she began to breath normally and seemed to be drifting off into a happier sleep.
Autumn smiled and kissed Kia's forehead before singing the last verse of the song at a near whisper.
Autumn stood and looked down at her sister, who was now sleeping peacefully, before turning to the doorway, only to run into Mikey.
"Oh Mikey, you scared the living daylights out of me. What are you doing?"
Mikey smiled. "I heard something beautiful and it is my motto not to pass up on something beautiful." Mikey's eyes wandered to Autumn's body. Autumn smiled at Mikey's little play on words.
"Um…Mike? My eyes are a little higher," she said with a smile on her face. Mikey looked up into her gold eyes without any feeling of embarrassment. "I know that, just the other view is so much more…interesting," Mikey said with a smirk. Autumn smirked right back. "I'm glad that you think that is a better view, but I like your eyes. They remind me of…acorns."
Mikey's eyebrows rose. "Acorns?" Autumn nodded. "You're just a little nutty. It fits you perfectly." Autumn lifted her hand and cupped Mikey's cheek and leaned toward him, stopping just inches from his face. "And that's just the way I like you," she said before gently slapping his cheek and gently pushing him out of her way. Autumn passed Mikey and walked out into the living room. Mikey just stood there staring at her as she walked away.
"Very beautiful," he said to himself before shutting the door to the girls' room, letting Kia sleep in peace.
