Morning comes on a Saturday as Sarah Grace wakes up and gets out of bed.
"Hmm, I wonder what that grunting sound was, Mommy's phone or Daddy's phone?" She makes her bed and heads towards her brother's room.
"Hey, little guy. Time to get up."
Nicholas wakes up and gives her a little smile as she reaches down, picks him up very gently, and carries him out of the room.
In their parents' bedroom, Jenny, breathing heavily, rose from her husband's chest as he got up and rubbed her back.
"Hey." She whispered.
"Hey, beautiful." He whispered, planting a kiss as Jenny giggled.
"You think the kids are awake?"
"I don't know, because I don't want Sarah Grace bringing Nicholas in the room with us like this." Ryan sat up, carefully holding Jenny.
Outside, Sarah Grace puts Nicholas in his highchair.
"If Daddy was keeping Mommy warm, then why were they…" she was cut off when the phone ring and she ran to pick up. "Hello?"
"Hello, Sarah?" it was Lily.
"Hey, how are you?"
"I just got up this morning and I'm waiting for Alexis to come downstairs."
"Oh, okay." Sarah Grace looks at Nicholas, putting his fingers in his mouth. As she goes to get her favorite cereal, she continues. "Guess what?"
"What?" Lily sat on the sofa.
Before Sarah Grace could answer, there was a beep on the phone.
"What was that?"
"Looks like Jesus."
"Put him on."
Sarah Grace presses a button. "Hello?"
"Hey, guys."
"Hey."
"What's up, Jesus?"
"I just woke up to watch TV. How about you two?"
"I'm waiting for Alexis."
"I'm getting breakfast for me and Nicholas."
At Lily's loft, she sees her parents' door open.
"Oh, guys. Guess what?"
"What?" Jesus and Sarah Grace asked curiously.
"Well, I was reading my Snow White book, and…" Lily gets interrupted by her mom's cell phone ringing.
Jesus turns to sees his parents emerging from their room. "That's probably my dad calling your mom."
"What were you saying, Lil?" Sarah Grace grabs a bowl as she sees her dad coming out in a robe.
Lil is her nickname and Sarah Grace's Gracie so both girls called each other by their nicknames. "Sorry, Gracie. I was in the middle of reading when I…" Lily sees her mom ran out to grab her phone.
"When you guys get the chance, I have something to say." Jesus smiles at his parents.
"What is it?"
During their conversation, Lanie and Beckett look at their kids talking to each other on the phone.
"Girl, they couldn't wait to talk to each other this morning." Lanie laughed.
Beckett smiles at her daughter. "I know."
Sarah Grace takes a breath. "Oh! Now I remember."
"What?" Lily starts pacing.
"I was sleeping in my bed when something woke me up."
"Really?" Lily asked. "I heard a funny moan when I was reading myself to sleep."
Jesus turns on the TV. "That's crazy. I went to get a glass of water, I came back and I heard a creaking noise."
Shocked, Lanie turns to Esposito, also surprised, and back on the phone. "Uh, Kate, are you hearing this?"
"Yeah, I do." Beckett snaps her fingers at Castle, who spots their daughter on the phone.
"What woke you up, Gracie?"
Sarah Grace makes a monkey sound that causes Nicholas to laugh as both their parents look at each other. "Oh, I got out of bed to find out what it was and then I wondered if my mommy and daddy were asleep. It sounded like a grunt."
"Really? I was gonna asked my mommy about that funny moaning." Lily raised an eyebrow.
"Seriously?"
"Yeah."
"That's nothing, guys." Jesus begins switching the channels. "When I heard the creaking sound, it was coming from my parents' bedroom and I was about to ask my mom about it."
Surprised, Lanie, Beckett, and Jenny gestured their husbands to stop their kids.
"Okay, I thought you were gonna say that you saw some terrible as I did." Sarah Grace grabs a plastic bowl for Nicholas.
"Same here," Jesus replied.
Lily looks up the stairs. "You too? That's makes three of us."
Sarah Grace sits on the counter. "Okay. On 3, we say the answer together."
"Yeah." Lily sits on the chair.
"Sounds like a plan." Jesus starts bouncing on the sofa.
"Ready?" Sarah Grace asked as she closed the cupboard.
"Yeah." Lily and Jesus replied.
"1…2…"
But before they could answer, all three kids were suddenly captured or grab by their dads with a tickle fest or a wrestle.
Back on the phone, Lanie laughs. "Kate, please tell me you're still there."
"Yeah, that was close." Beckett smile and shook her head. "I was worried my daughter was gonna tell what she saw last night."
"You too?" Lanie's eyes widened. "Javi was certain that he locked the door."
After wrestling with his son, Esposito managed to grab the phone. "Guys, you there?"
"Yeah, bro." Ryan grabs his daughter off the counter as she giggled and put her in a chair.
"That was close." Castle had tickled his daughter to get the phone and pick her up.
Lanie got Jesus to the table as Esposito walks away, talking. "Try too close, bro. My boy was gonna explained what he saw with me and Lanie."
Castle placed his daughter on a chair in the kitchen and walks off. "What? Lil was gonna do the same about me and Beckett."
Ryan spots Jenny pouring cereal for their kids as he walks over to the bedroom. "That's nothing, guys. My kid was trying to tell everything about me and her mom…in front of her brother."
"Oh!" Esposito and Castle grimaced.
"No, no, no, no, no." Esposito shook his head.
Castle spots Alexis coming down. "That's bad, Ryan."
Alexis noticed her dad on the phone. "What's bad?"
On the phone, Castle, Esposito, and Ryan all replied. "Nothing."
Alexis looks at her dad as she turns to Lily, swinging her feet.
Lily sees Alexis. "Lexi, um, I heard a creepy moaning last night."
Alexis grabs two glasses. "Oh, you have." Castle shakes his head at her. "But…it must've sounded scary?"
Lily looks at their dad. "Not really. Daddy and Mommy are acting funny."
Alexis laughs. "Well, mostly it's Dad."
Lily giggled.
"Lily was gonna tell everything to Alexis," Castle whispered back on the phone.
"Oh boy." Esposito spots Jesus running to his room.
"Okay, well…" Ryan turns to see Jenny taking the kids to the bathroom. "I had to tell Sarah Grace that the grunting was either my phone or Jenny's phone."
"Really?"
"Yeah, I couldn't tell her the grunting was from me."
"That's nothing, bro. I had to tell Jesus that what he saw was me and Lanie having a moment."
"What? Beckett told Jo that she and I were hugging."
"So, how are we gonna tell our kids?"
"I got something, guys."
On her cell, Lanie cleans up the tabletop. "Girl, I was worried Jesus was gonna have a nightmare when he saw us."
Beckett sees Castle whispered something into the phone. "Well, Castle thought he had the door locked."
"What about Jenny? I hope Sarah Grace didn't see her and Kevin together."
"I think she might already have. I heard Ryan told Castle and Espo about it."
"Oh, God. Now I have to figure out how to tell him."
"Hold on, I think Castle's got something."
Back to Castle on the phone, the boys were agreeing to his plan.
"You sure this will work, bro?" Esposito asked.
Ryan cleans up the kitchen. "Yeah, I'm hoping this will go along with Jenny."
"Trust me, guys." Castle sees his daughters coming up. "I gotta go."
"Same here."
"Yeah, me too."
After the boys hung up, Alexis and Lily walk up to their father.
"Dad, what was that moaning that Lil heard?" Alexis holding her sister's hand.
Beckett turns to her cell phone. "Lanie, I gotta go."
Lanie sees Esposito and Jesus wrestle on the couch. "Same here, girl."
"Um, that moaning?" Castle turns to Beckett, who had just hung up, walks up to them.
"Yeah, what was it?" Lily starts bouncing.
"How about we sit down?" Beckett sat down.
Alexis, Lily, and Castle sit down on the sofa.
"Well, what was it?"
"Um, that moaning you heard last night was…?" Castle and Beckett look at each other. "…were little angels."
"Angels?"
"Yeah. Uh, that moaning was from angels telling you that your mommy and daddy are very happy that you are…" Beckett paused for a second.
"Doing well in school." Castle finished for her as Beckett smile and holds his hand.
"Really?" Lily turns to Alexis. "Because Lexi wouldn't tell why she brought me upstairs when she was in your room."
"Well, she must have heard the angels giving a message to you." Beckett noticed Alexis' shocked look.
"Oh, okay."
Castle grabs his wife's hand. "So, you understand what your mother and I are saying?"
"Yeah, I do." Lily got up and hugs her parents.
"How about you go washed up?" Alexis gets up.
"Okay." Lily takes Alexis' hand and goes upstairs.
"Baby, you think she'll understand?" Beckett wondered.
"I think so." Castle kissed her neck as she smiled.
Ryan puts Nicholas in the playpen and sat down with Jenny and Sarah Grace.
"Sarah Grace, you have a question for your mother and me?"
Sarah Grace looks up. "Yeah, if the grunting was one of your phones, then why did I see something lit up in your room?"
"Um, well, that was the lamps on the nightstand." Jenny looks at Ryan.
"Oh, but I don't understand the…"
"The grunting was actually from the sound you made for your brother."
Sarah Grace looks at her little brother then back at her parents. "Are you saying he made that sound when he was asleep?"
Jenny strokes her hair. "It was more of a quiet grunt."
"Oh, okay."
"So, how about you play with your brother?" Ryan asked.
"Okay." Sarah Grace gets up, hugs her parents, and runs over to Nicholas.
"How do you think we did?" Jenny looks at the two kids.
Ryan holds his wife's hand. "I think we did okay."
Jesus starts jumping on his bed in his room as Esposito and Lanie came in.
"Hey, buddy." Esposito grabs hold of their son and puts him on the bed. "We need to talk."
"About what?" Jesus asked.
Lanie sat down next to her son. "Well, you said you heard creaking from our bedroom."
"Yeah, what was it?"
"That was from the floorboards underneath." Esposito looks at Lanie, who nodded.
"The floor?" Jesus raised an eyebrow.
"Yeah, so the creaking you heard last night was actually from the floor." Lanie nervously smiled.
"Oh, okay." Jesus gets up.
"You get what we're saying, buddy?"
"Yeah, I got it."
"Okay, so how about you go out to the living room?"
"Okay." Jesus heads out of the room.
Lanie walks out. "You think we did everything right?"
Esposito closes the door and puts an arm around her. "Yeah, I believe we did."
