Maka's POV
After Soul and I talked, we went into the twins room. He was gonna change Aaron while I changed Avriline.
"Avriline" I whispered as I put my hands on her crib. "It's time to wake up"
Avril mumbled a bit as she rubbed her eye with her hand. "Mommy" she started "Do I have to?"
I chuckled as I put out my arms out for her. She opened an eye and then stood up slowly, waiting to be carried off.
Once I did she closed her eyes and rested but still spoke.
"Where are we going?" she asked. I smiled as I moved back and forth so she would feel more relaxed.
"We're going to the carnival today. You and Aaron are going to get on lots of rides and win prizes!" I exclaimed. Avril gave out a small smile after that.
"Cotton candy?" she asked. I bit my lip as I had a worried expression so I looked at Soul who was carrying Aaron.
Soul smirked once he noticed me staring at him. I made a face at him so he chuckled. "Yes Avriline. We will get all the junk food you guys want" he stated with a grin.
My eyes went wide after he said that. I thought he was gonna break it down to her! Not actually say yes!
Avriline gave out a small "yay" and then kept quiet.
Meanwhile, I was a bit peeved off at Soul. He probably noticed the tension between the air because he spoke.
"Why are you mad bookworm? Your acting as if we shouldn't" he stated.
I frowned "Well excuse me for caring about our kids health" I snapped with a glare.
Soul huffed, "Maka. They've been eating vegetables and fruits for the past two weeks. I'm surprised they could actually survive without losing sanity" Soul replied. This time, I huffed as I gave out a small nod.
"I guess your right but still...not too much" I warned. Soul smirked then as he walked up to me.
"Other than that, change Avril. I'll change Aaron but we'll need to hurry. Do you know how long the drive is?" he asked. I thought for a bit until I shook my head. "Like an hour and a half" he stated as he walked away.
Soul was sort of right. I guess we did have to change them now. I sighed but then looked down at Avriline. "Do you want me to pick out your outfit?" I asked. Avril smiled as she nodded.
"I'd like to wear pink mommy" she requested. I gave out an okay and placed her into her crib. Then, I went towards her drawer and looked for the perfect clothes.
In the end, I picked a light-pink long-sleeved shirt with three Hello Kitty's on the shirt. It even had the word "Hello Kitty" in cursive. Next, I had decided to get her matching pants. Her trousers were the color amaranth, it had light-pink small hearts on them. Lastly, her shoes were just plain white-flats.
So I placed her outfit on top of the drawer, then I took out Avriline and made her stand up on the floor. She seemed a bit sleepy but still managed to keep both her eyes open.
I showed her the outfit and her eyes sparkled. I smiled once I saw that. I helped her remove her clothes and put on her outfit. Avril seemed pretty excited that she even let me do her hair! Avril doesn't like doing her hair that much, this was a shocker!
Avril was now on a small stool, she was swinging her feet back and forth. "Mommy, can you put my hair into pigtails?" she asked. I nodded as I went into one of the drawer cabinets.
"Matching ribbons?" I said. Avril nodded quickly.
Once I got the ribbons, I went back to her and tied her hair up into two pigtails. Once I finished she giggled and jumped off the stool.
"I'm as pwetty as you mama!" Avril exclaimed. I smiled happily after she said that.
"Come on Avril, let's go brush your teeth"
Soul's POV
"So Aaron, which one? The blue t-shirt or the red one?" I asked as I holded the two shirts in front of Aaron.
Aaron put his hand under his chin and thought for a bit.
"I think...the red one!" he said excitedly. I smirked as I threw the blue shirt towards his crib. Then I helped Aaron remove his clothes and put on his dark-red t-shirt with dark blue jeans. "Daddy" he started.
"Hmph?" I replied.
"Am I cool?" he asked nervously that he started fiddling with his fingers. I looked at him confused but then chuckled.
"Course you are kiddo. I mean, you have a pretty cool family. Why?" I said confused.
Aaron looked down "Some kids at school said that I'm uncool" he admitted. My eyes went wide once I heard that.
Who's parents am I gonna murder?
"But I said that I had the coolest dad ever. I said that he reads me books, plays soccer with me and hangs out with me. But that made them tease me more" Aaron said as he let a tear go down.
"They said that I'm a loser and dumb. Daddy, they said I should stop acting like a kid. They even pushed me down once at the playground. I didn't tell the teacher because the mean kids said they'd mess my face.."
Scratch that. What kids am I gonna to have to murder?!
"Aaron" I started but got cut off by Aaron's crying. He started sobbing so I pulled him close to me. I rubbed his back as I started shushing him.
"It's alright" I cooed but Aaron kept talking.
"T-They said I'm ugly. T-They called me names e-everyday. I'm always s-so scared to go t-to school" he admitted "Please daddy, help m-me.." Aaron started shaking.
After Aaron confessed this I was pretty shocked, angry, upset and silent. I had no idea Aaron would ever experience this at such a young age.
"Don't listen to them kiddo. You're the most coolest kid ever. I'll take care of them" I said as I let Aaron sob his heart out.
What I experienced today, was every parents nightmare.
Maka's POV
Once Avriline and I finished brushing our teeth, we went downstairs while holding hands.
"Okay. So Avril, we're gonna skip breakfast but I'll get Aaron's and yours bottles for the trip. I'll pack your favorites too!" I said happily.
Meanwhile, Avril nodded in agreement.
"Thank you mommy" she replied.
I nod my head, then we let go of our hands because we were not at the bottom.
"Put your shoes on, wait for Aaron and daddy, okay?"
Avril nodded again as she saluated me.
"No problem!"
I giggled as she went to the living room with her shoes.
Then I went into the kitchen and packed two lunches-I mean four lunches so the family can eat.
I smiled at that thought. Then I got the twins bottles out of the fridge.
"Chocolate milk and strawberry..check" I said happily. I took a big breath as I looked around.
Avril and I were ready but what about Aaron and-
"Ready!" Soul hollered as I heard the footsteps coming down. I rolled my eyes in amusement and put the lunch bags and bottles in my backpack that I had taken before Avril and I went downstairs.
I walked towards the door as I found Soul piggybacking Aaron.
"The little man got a bit sleepy on the way so I let him rest" Soul stated. I gave a nod as I smiled.
"Avril! It's time to go!" I shouted.
I heard footsteps coming then.
"We're leaving now?" she asked. I nodded as I opened the door.
"You guys can either rest, watch Spongebob or have your bottles during the long drive. Meanwhile, daddy and I will lead the way towards the carnival!" I exclaimed.
Avril's eyes went wide as her smile.
"Then let's go!"
