Aria sighed "I think that's about as much of the story I'm willing to tell, you do not wanna know what I was doing in the bedroom with your father's" Aria dismissed
This made Raylene and Zach even more curious "but mom/mama..." Zach and Raylene both spoke in unison "not another word, time for bed" Aria said
'If I told them anything graphic I would not live to see the day, my mother would be disappointed if I did that' Aria thought to herself
"But we're..." Zach yawned "not sleepy yet" Zach said rubbing his eyes sleepily "yeah we're not sleepy yet mama" Raylene said yawning as well
Seeing her kids so tired Aria feigned innocently "oh, is that so..." Aria said with a mischievous grin on her face but then used her signature spell "Mirror"
Aria's copy helped put the twins to bed while also singing a bedtime song " Sleepy mind, Beddy bye...your dreams will surely come true "
" Goodnight, Sleep tight...time for you to close your eyes " Aria sang as she and her copy tucked them into bed
" Tomorrow you can play, you can dream, you can stay...Goodnight darling, Sleep tight honey...Goodnight " Aria sang making both the twins fall asleep
Aria made her copy disappear and walked towards the door, she looked back at her children in the bedroom sleeping peacefully
Ariq leaned her head against the doorframe remembering when they were born, she was very happy
Flashback...
Aria was holding the twins in her arms as happy tears fell from her eyes kissing their foreheads "mama loves you both" Aria whispered softly
Both Arpegius and Shep watch lovingly as their wife holds their newborn daughter and son in her arms...
End of Flashback...
Aria couldn't help letting a few tears slip passed her eyes the wiped them away with her finger looking back at her kids and the shutting the light off
"Goodnight my little Angel's" Aria said with a whisper with a smile adorning her face as she slowly and silently closed the door so as not to disturb their sleep
Aria walked passed a wall filled with many pictures of her husband's, herself and the kids, one of the photos had the whole family together
Aria looked at the photo of the twins first birthday and she couldn't help letting out a smile "they grow up so fast" Aria said feeling a bit melancholy
"Darling" Shep said walking over towards her putting an arm on her shoulder "it's hard to believe they'll be grown-up when the time comes" Aria said
"Your already thinking ahead of time Aria" Shep said kissing her forehead "you shouldn't worry so much, it'll be years before they grow into adults" Shep said holding her close
"I know, I guess I'm just afraid of being victim to empty nest syndrome" Aria said making Shep chuckle "we could always have another one" he teased
"Absolutely not...you didn't have to go through all that pain of childbirth" Aria said not agreeing with the idea of another child in her belly
Shep chuckled "alright if you say so..." Shep said and lead her back to the bedroom where Arpegius was already waiting for them
"Are the kids asleep" Arpegius asked shirtless as Aria changed into her nightwear "both are down for the count" Aria winked
"It amazes me how you can get them to sleep so easily" Shep said pulling off his shirt showing his chest and abs...
Aria got into bed with them "I have my ways, I can even put you two to sleep" Aria said as she yawned and snuggled up to her two husbands as they all fell asleep
End of Aria's Arc...
