Rhage: *stares at Heli*
Heli: Why do you have to break my heart with Dino's amazingness?
Rhage: Cause I specialize in romance and have a passion for tragedy and your tears are like crack.
Heli: I hate you…
Jack kissed the golden curls on her son's head and tried hard not to sigh when he continued to sniffle and cry, his little head resting on her arm as she held him close. His pacifier, bottle, blankie, and stuffed bear sat in an array on the table but no matter how hard she tried, nothing would get him to quiet down enough to fall asleep. This had been going on for the past three nights and Jack was at her wits end without Dino around to help, him having gone to Japan for the week and not due home until tomorrow. She closed her eyes, tears of frustration trying to escape as she bowed her head to murmur soothingly to Scott.
"Let me take him." Jack's head came up, her eyes widening when she found Dino walking towards her still rumpled and carrying his bag from the plane. She got to her feet as he held out his hands after letting his bag slide to the floor.
"It's alright, Dino. You've only just gotten home and-"
"And I want to hold my son and once he's asleep, I want to hold my wife." He smiled tiredly but that didn't dim its warmth. Jack blinked back tears (three days with no sleep could really make one very emotional) then gently set Scott in his father's arms, his little body cradled carefully against Dino's powerful chest, "Go ahead and go to bed, Miri. I'll be there in a moment." She kissed his cheek before gathering Scott's things and Dino's bag then headed for the hall that led to the foyer. Pausing just outside the kitchen, Jack listened when Dino began to sing softly and their son quieted instantly to listen.
Rhage: R&R or there's really no point in me bothering to post!
