Aria smiled over at Sage when he was helping Caroline. She was so happy he had decided to come back. Henry finished his bottle, and crawled around on the ground happily.

Sage was glad to help Caroline eat and then wash off her face and hands once she was done. After all that, he plopped down on the couch next to Aria, watching Henry crawl around happily.

Aria smiled when Sage sat down next to her. She grabbed his hand gently. The girl grinned and ran her thumb over the back of his hand softly. She loved spending time with him.

Sage smiled over at the girl when he felt her hand on his and rested his head on her shoulder happily. He was glad she'd given him the second chance he'd so badly wanted. He did have to take his kingdom back...but a few days with his family wouldn't hurt his plan at all.

Aria smiled happily and kissed his forehead. She sqeazed his hand gently and laid her head on top of his. Henry found a toy, and was playing with it on the ground happily. Caroline walked over and played next to her brother excitedly. She loved having a playmate, even at his young age.

Sage smiled over at Aria happily and then his eyes wandered over to the kids. He smiled softly as he watched them play, gladder than ever that he and Aria had decided to try for a third child after their misscarriage of the second. He'd always wonder what that one would have been like...boy or girl, black hair or blonde hair or brown hair, things like that. He loved it like any of the living ones. It was a bitter sweet though, he supposed. But now they had two wonderful children right here with them, playing and having fun together. It was nice.

Aria smiled back at Sage, and got up, stepping over the kids carefully. She made a cup of coffee for herself, and heading into her room to get ready. She turned on the shower and waited for it to heat up.

Sage let the girl go, and decided to just keep an eye on the kids while she showered. Eventually, Henry got tired though, and fell asleep when he went to pick him up. Caroline pleaded with him to play, and he really couldn't say no to her, so he sat down on the floor next to her. She then proceeded to put makeup on him, which he assumed looked horrible, but was willing to let her play around...he could shower and wash it off later

Aria drank her coffee before undressing, and stepping into the warm shower. It had felt like eternity since she last had a relaxing shower. It was nice to finally be able to, without getting distracted by the kids calling her name.

Sage sat around with Caroline for a while, holding henry. His face felt odd with all the makeup the girl was plastering on him, but she seemed happy so he didn't mind too much.
