Aria walked around the lake for a bit before heading back to the castle. She headed straight to Caroline's room and grabbed the little girl from her bed. Caroline squealed happily. "Mama. I... hungry." Caroline said looking at her mom. Aria nodded. "Okay. Let's go grab some food for you." She smiled.

Sage continued to lay in bed until he got too hungry to keep laying there. He sighed and forced himself up and out of bed with a groan, and padded to the kitchen tiredly. He did need food though. He smiled when he saw Caroline and aria there and hummed a hello to them before grabbing an apple and plopping down with a sigh.

Aria set Caroline down and the little girl hobbled over to the table, trying to keep herself up. She managed to make it to the closest chair and climbed up to sit next to Sage. "Hi, Dada." She cooed softly, beaming with pride. Aria giggled and grabbed her some orange slices. "She's been doing really well with talking lately! Shes almost walking by herself too." Aria said. She was proud of her little girl.

Sage grinned over at the girl when she came over to him and picked her up to set her down on his lap. "hey there baby girl," he hummed before yawning again and then nodding at arias comment. "She's been doing wonderful," he chirped happily.

Aria nodded. She grabbed an apple for herself and sat down in the chair next to Sage. The girl grinned over at Caroline and ate her apple happily. She sighed lightly and leaned back into the chair. Caroline beamed and looked over at her parents happily.

Sage nibbled at his apple, holding Caroline in one hand as the little girl played with the buttons on his shirt and amused herself by bouncing up and down in his lap. He watched her, really quite proud of how much she'd learned and grown.

Aria watched the two interact before she got up to wash her hands. The girl swooped up Caroline from Sage with a soft grin. "Time for your bath." She chuckled softly.

Sage chuckled lightly when Aria took Caroline. "I'll finish up here and then head back to our room," he informed the girl happily. He'd gotten distracted and hadn't eaten his breakfast yet, which was a bit amusing really.

Aria giggled slightly and nodded. "You didn't even eat silly!" The girl joked playfully. She chuckled and walked back to their room, holding Caroline's hand as she took little steps. Aria smiled and watched the little girl happily.

Sage groaned and nodded. "I know," he laughed, shaking his head at himself. Then he waved them off, finishing eating rather slowly, since he was still a bit tired, and then wandered back to their room.
