"OH! but mum! why does Soren get tae stay up? It isn't fair!" The seven-year-old whined with the world's most sour look on her face. Her mother shook her head and chuckled softly "Sarai, we've bin thro' this, he is older" she replied as she drew the covers up to her daughter and kissing her lightly on the forehead. "Goodnight moonbug". She made her way to the bedroom door. "Mum, wait.. ah... need, ah need my glow-shroom" Sarai pleaded as if trying to stall her mother in an attempt to stay up.
Her mother sighed. "Okay, where is it?" She around the semi dark room. "Soren teuk it, he said only babies need it" Sarai pulled her covers up to her face. Her mother raised an eyebrow and walked out of her room, down the hall, and stood in the doorway of her son's room.
"Ye care tae tell me how come ye teuk yer sister's glow-shroom?" She asked with her arms crossed now leaning slightly on the door frame. Soren jumped at the sound of his mother's voice. He knew all to well that the ever so slight pitch in her voice meant that she was not amused. "Ah gave it tae Luna, she is the one that needs it the most, besides Sarai is tae auld tae be havin' it" he replied with a nervous smile on his face. "Uh-huh..." Now standing upright and uncrossing her arms she then walked over and ruffled his hair a bit. "Whatcha workin' on?" She asked as she peeked at his artwork. "It's not finished yet, so no peekin' MUM!," He attempted to cover it up with his hands. She smiled softly and kissed the top of his head between his horns. " Yer just like yer da" She chuckled. "Ye have 30 minutes before bed, ya have trainin' in the mornin'," She waved as she walked to the door "mmm aye ma'am" scoffing a bit, Soren loved training but disliked the fact of getting up so early. "Soren" He looked up at his mother. "Love ya son" She added with a soft smile. "Love ya tae mum, goodnight" He replied with a soft smile back. "Goodnight" She left the room in search of the glow-shroom.
As Rayla turned the corner to her room she noticed Sarai standing in the hallway. She waved her daughter over who happily ran to her mother. "Sarai? You're still up my little moonbug?" Callum asked as she walked into her parent's room. "Mum is helping me fin' mah glow-shroom, Soren teuk it" she replied placing her hands on her hips. "Is that so?" He looked up at Rayla who walked over to Luna's crib. Luna was sound asleep, making her smile. She looked at the nightstand which low and behold sat the glow-shroom. She picked it up and handed it to Sarai. "Thanks, mum! Goodnight da!" She gave her father a hug and a kiss then ran back to her room. Sarai's room then lit up with a soft pink and yellow glow.
"So what was that about?" He asked as Rayla sat on the edge of the bed. "Looks lik' Soren teuk her glow-shroom thinking Sarai is tae old for it? we'll have tae get another th'morra " she replied finally settling down and cuddling up to her husband. "Sure that is no problem" he wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her close. He then moved a few strands of her snow-white hair from her face. "goodnight mah sad prince" She smiled kissing the tip of his nose. While He didn't care for the nickname, it was her's she gave to him long ago. He looked into her beautiful violet eyes. "Goodnight love" He pulled her closer kissing her lips with love and care. The house became silent as everyone slowly drifted off to sleep.
