He blinked a few times, then raised his head up a little. "How have the girls been?"

"Perfectly fine.They each went off to play, and Emma essentially checked in just a few minutes ago."
"What did she say?"
"She asked yet again if we had kissed."
He snorted, sitting up. "She's a special little girl."
"That she is. Jaiden poked your face a bit at the beginning of your nap, too. I think she was worried."
He laughed lightly. "That's how she is. She doesn't quite understand sleep yet."
"She is still so small. After a bit of explaining, she seemed to understand you were alright though." She chuckled.
He shrugged. "She's just very protective."
"Just wait until she gets older, she will be quite the force of nature."
He smiled. "Yeah. She reminds me of a younger you."
She tilted her head, thinking, and looked down at her phone. Her fingers flitted across the screen, and suddenly she nodded. "You know, she carries herself about the same as I did." She held up her phone to show him a picture of herself at about Jaiden's age, with a boy a few years older than her.
"Old friend?" he asked.
"My brother, actually." She turned the phone off a bit too quickly.
He tilted his head, but said nothing.
"Oh, I am still wearing the same thing from yesterday, aren't I?" She asked, changing the subject and looking down at her clothes. "It is a good thing I keep a change in the truck."
He scooted over for her to have space to get up. "Yeah, I should probably change too."
"If I am not back in ten minutes, I might have been hit by a car." She joked, standing up and stretching.
He snorted. "The car would be more hurt than you."
"Probably. The driver would not fare too well either." She slipped her shoes back on and headed out the door. "Shout if you need me."
He immediately shouted.
She turned around, leaning back in the doorway with an eyebrow raised. "What is it? Something wrong?"
"I'm always gonna need you." ((Kaching!
"Actually, just text me if you need." She said hurriedly, face heating up quickly.
He laughed, standing up. "I'mma go change, too."
She nodded, shutting the door behind her and hurrying to her truck. She changed easily, having swapped clothes in vehicles before, and set to doing her makeup.
He walked down about 5 minutes later, in a simple orange T-Shirt and a pair of jeans with a paint stain on them.
She climbed out and headed back to the house, answering her phone without thinking. "Delacroix." She froze when the caller responded, turning her back to the house as she answered in French.
He peeked out the window and saw Manon speaking on the phone. He tilted his head, confused.
"Jean, arrête. Je ne vais pas … non. Je raccroche." She was clearly upset, shaking her head as she talked quickly. She didn't hang up though, still listening to the other person as she turned back around, going inside.
