-

Beatrice had everything written down, from Rooster and Nicole’s birthday, to the twins’ return and to Rooster’s promotion…both in her phone and on an actual calendar. Call her over worried, but she just wanted to be sure it wouldn’t be missed.

Anything.

She also had a few notes to herself, little things she had to remember before it was time for their birthday party. As she sat in the center of their bed, clearly lost sleep because of the conversation they had a few hours before, she wrote a little bit of everything down.

But since she wasn’t close to Rooster, he woke up. Well,partially. He grunted in annoyance, trying to find her and only being able to pinch the fabric of her Care Bears pajama pants, then blinking his eyes open when he saw her seated up on the bed, “Oh,” he squints his gaze, “...you are up?”

Beatrice looked over her shoulder at Rooster, a soft smile on her lips. "Sorry, did I wake you?"

Rooster grumbled as he shifted and stretched out his arms before his eyes fully opened and he saw Beatrice, still in her pajamas, writing something on a piece of paper. He yawned, sitting up against the headboard and scratching his head. "What are you doing up so early?"

She set her pen aside and shuffled closer to him, resting her head on his shoulder. "Couldn't sleep. Just had a lot on my mind."

Rooster wrapped his arm around her, pulling her close. "What's bothering you, baby? You know you can always talk to me."

Beatrice sighed, her fingers gently tracing patterns on the back of his hand. "I was just thinking about everything that's coming up. Your deployment, the twins' return, and the birthday party... It's a lot to manage."

Rooster kissed the top of her head, his lips warm and comforting. "What are you writing down? Can I help?”

She shifted a little so she could lean into him more comfortably and explained, "I'm just making sure we have everything planned and organized. There are birthdays coming up,as you well know,” he smirked a bit at that “and I don't want to forget any details."

Rooster nodded, his fingers started to gently rub her back. "That's a good idea, baby. But…you are doing that at." he checks his phone, narrowing his gaze because of how bright it was, “At four in the morning.”

Beatrice glanced at her hands, then back at Rooster, her lips curving into a sheepish smile. "I know, I know. It's just that I've been thinking about everything so much, it woke me up early. It's just...there's so much happening."

Rooster chuckled, the sound deep and soothing, like honey. "Aw baby. You give me those puppy eyes again,I might fall in love.” she just gives him a small,soft smile, her cheeks reddening, “I don’t want you to stay up for too long,I don’t want you to be too tired.”

“I know.”

He adjusts himself on the bed, “Guess that means we’ll both stay up then.”

“But…you have work in a few hours.”

And he shrugs, giving her a weird look, a look that said, ‘as if I’d leave you here alone’ before crossing his arms, “I don’t care. I can handle it. I will be here until you fall asleep, now,” he nods to the notebook, “What you got there, give me the deets.”

She knew there was no way he’d back down now so she snuggled closer to him. "You're impossible, you know that?"

Rooster grinned down at her, winking just to make her laugh again. "But you love me for it."

She kissed him sweetly, her lips lingering on his. "Yes, I do. Lots."

Rooster wrapped his arms around her, holding her close as she nestled against him. "Me too, gorgeous. Anyway, what do we have?"

Beatrice sighed in contentment,then returned her attention to the notebook on her hands, pointing each line with her pen and started explaining her plans to him. "Alright," she began, "I've been jotting down a list of things we need to prepare for the birthday party. I have everything done and I even got you some extra goodies from Mr.Scoops."

“OOOoooohhh…”

“Yep, they said we are the best customers ever.” she smiles, “But I’m sure they say that to everyone…then I wrote down,” she flips the page, “Things I can do before the twins come home. I’d need Gui and the guys’ help for that, but that’s basically uhhh making sure the house is clean and perfect for them.”

He couldn't help but smile at her enthusiasm, tucking a strand of hair behind her ear. "Heavy lifting for the guys,huh?"

“Kind of, since the nursery is done,I’d just need them to help me clean around.” she explains, “I could ask Shells but she might get distracted in like…five minutes.”

Rooster kissed the top of her head and leaned in, resting his chin on her shoulder as they continued to discuss everything, “Hm, fair.” he comments, making sure he could see what she was writing too. “You wrote about my deployment too?”

‘...yeah.” she whispers, “Things I’ll do to pass the time and…you know, dealing with Guillermo since he’ll probably stay the whole time here instead of going to mom and dad.”

“What did you write?’ he asks softly, “About when I leave?”

"I've been trying to come up with a plan for myself when you're deployed. I know it's going to be challenging, and I want to make the most of my time without you here." she smiles a bit, “I might paint a bit more, if I’m able, with the twins and Nikki in the house…well, it’ll be hard but not impossible.”

Rooster's expression softened as he looked into her eyes. "I know it won't be easy. But I also know you're strong and resourceful and you can always video chat me whenever we are able to.” he mutters,kissing her cheek sweetly, “I’ll try to be with you even away. What are some of the things you have in mind?"

Beatrice bit her lip, her voice soft as she shared her plans. "Well, I thought about writing you letters. Maybe I could send you a letter for each day you're away, something you can read whenever you miss us."

He smiled at her sweetly, a warm feeling spreading through him. "I'd love that, Bea. It'll be like having a piece of home with me all the time. “ his cheeks heat up a bit, “That’s so romantic.”

Beatrice blushed a bit in response to Rooster's words, her fingers tracing patterns on the paper. "I thought you’d like it."

Rooster's arms tightened around her, holding her close. "It's a beautiful idea, gorgeous. You always know how to make the best out of any situation. What else have you been planning?"

She leaned into his embrace, her fingers continuing to doodle. "Well, I thought about organizing the kids’ photos, creating a photo album so we can look back on those moments together when you return. And I also want to make sure that I document everything they do…I know it’ll be only three months but...I mean,Nikki is one and already speaking."

“And walking.”

“And walking.”

He nuzzled her neck, grinning against her skin.. "That sounds wonderful,gorgeous.It'll be a great way for me to feel like I'm still a part of their lives even when I'm not physically there." he frowns a bit, “You think they’ll recognize my voice?”

“I think so.” she whispers back, gently caressing the back of his head as he props his chin on her shoulder, “I mean, we try to visit them every day at the NICU, their eyes are open, they are alert…I’m pretty sure they will know it’s you.” Beatrice looks at him when he goes quiet, seeing that her husband’s eyes are away from her, focusing on the colorful Care Bears on her pants. “Roos,I know what you are thinking.”

“What?”

Her smile goes soft, “They won’t forget you.”

And she was right, but he felt terrible either way.

Rooster exhaled, his breath warm against Beatrice's neck. He had to fight back the emotions that were welling up inside him. "I just... I'm afraid that they won't remember me or recognize me when I return."

Beatrice gently turned in his arms, her fingers tilting his chin up so he would meet her gaze. She looked deep into his eyes, those whisky colored brown eyes as her own filled with unwavering love for this man. "Roos, our babies are going to know their daddy. They'll hear your voice, see your face, and feel your love even while you're away. You could be on the other side of the world, but your presence will always be with them."

Rooster couldn't help but smile, though a faint trace of worry still lingered in his eyes. "Thank you, gorgeous.”

She pressed a soft kiss to his lips, her fingers tracing the contours of his face. "I love you, Roos. And I promise you that when you return, they'll know you, don’t worry too much.”

He returned her kiss with all the tenderness he could muster. "I love you too, Bea.And I’m going to try,I promise.” he then looked back at his phone to check the time, “Well..since we are both up,how about I make breakfast this morning?” he’s backing away from her to stand up in front of the bed, “What do you want to eat?’

Beatrice smiled, setting the notepad aside and stretching her arms up her head . "That sounds wonderful, Roos. How about some fluffy pancakes with a side of scrambled eggs and crispy bacon? And a big pot of coffee to kickstart our day."

Rooster's face lit up with enthusiasm as he heard her breakfast choice, snapping his fingers at her. "You got it, gorgeous. Pancakes, eggs, bacon, and coffee coming right up." He made his way towards the door, ready to head to the kitchen. “Oh,” he pops his head back in, “Are you going to join me or do I need to carry you out?”

She reached for the blanket, draping it over her shoulders, and then slipped her feet into her comfy slippers. “I need to check on Nikki first, then I’ll join you. I know she’s asleep but can you blame me? Our daughter is really cute.”

"Of course, gorgeous, she got it from her mama.” and he winked before disappearing again.

Beatrice grinned,shaking her head at his words and headed to Nikki's room. The sight of their sleeping daughter was enough to melt her heart every time, even at the door frame. Eleanor and Jack were sleeping just as soundly under her crib, so the brunette chose not to step in further.

Nikki made a contented baby noise in her sleep, and Beatrice couldn't help but smile, watching that little baby turn her body on the crib in her sleep. She could spend hours just watching her daughter be…her daughter.

Which reminded her…

“You remember when you told me,” he looks up at her when she enters the kitchen, “You were a loud baby?”

The aroma of freshly brewed coffee greeted her as she entered the kitchen, and her senses perked up. She found Rooster busy at the stove, a spatula in one hand and his lips parted in surprise, “...yes? Why?”

“I’m just thinking if Nikki is more you or me when asleep. Because she can get loud sometimes.” she thanks him when he hands her the coffee mug, “But she’s not that loud. You know?...makes me wonder what the twins will be like when they come back home too.”

Rooster paused for a moment, taking in Beatrice's words as he continued to flip the pancakes. The sizzle of bacon in the pan filled the kitchen with a delicious aroma, and that called Jolene’s attention. The pittie was seated right next to him, tail wagging against the floor.

"I wonder about that too, gorgeous," he replied with a thoughtful expression. "I mean, the nurses never complain about them so maybe all our kids are blessed with the quiet genes from your side."

“Hmmm,maybe.” she says, walking up to stand next to him, then hoisting herself on the counter, swinging her legs back and forth as she watches him, “I love when you make pancakes, it’s my favorite thing.” he smirks, keeping his eyes on the fluffy cakes,slowly bubbling to perfection, “Also, another thing, I’m going to see Ev this afternoon.”

“Everything okay with her?”

“Yeah, she messaged me last night, I forgot to tell you.” with everything that happened, she couldn’t really blame herself, “She says she wants to speak to me,I dunno if Shells will be there…maybe she’s just a bit overwhelmed with the baby boy?”

Rooster continued to flip the pancakes, his expression thoughtful. "Well, I hope everything's alright with her. Jake hasn’t said anything either."

Beatrice shrugged with her brows pinched together " Well I'll be sure to let you know how it goes. I know it’s nothing, at least I hope so." she rubs the back of her neck ,”Oh,I also have to go to the Hard Deck for a little bit, Penny asked me to come over too.”

“My wife is so popular.” he teases and she swats his shoulder playfully, “Going around everywhere, being a power mom through and through.”

Beatrice chuckled at him, her fingers tracing circles on her coffee mug. "Well, I try to do my best and be there for everyone. It's all about finding a balance, right?"

Rooster turned off the stove and slid a pancake onto a plate, giving it a quick dusting of powdered sugar. He then placed a few strips of bacon beside it. “As long you don’t overwork yourself,gorgeous." he smiles, “I’m all for it.”

She smiled appreciatively, reaching out for the plate as Rooster handed it to her. "Thank you, Roos. I promise I won't."

Rooster's eyes softened as he looked at her. He placed a hand gently on her cheek, his thumb brushing her skin affectionately. "Ugh you are so cute. I believe you." he picks her up by the waist and lifts her off the counter, all the while Beatrice holds both her plate and mug in hands. “I’m just a bit protective about your well being is all. Are you going to stay at the bar long?”

Beatrice laughed as Rooster lifted her off the counter with ease. "I'll try not to stay too long at the bar. It’s probably something Penny needs me to sign or something of the sort." she shrugs, her feet touching the floor.

Rooster smiled and cupped her chin. "Sounds like a busy day ahead for you, gorgeous."

Beatrice nodded, sipping her coffee quietly. "It is, but I'll manage. I always do, right?"

He kissed her forehead and held his lips there. "That's my girl. You've got this." then he slaps her ass, “Now go have your breakfast,busy bee.”

Phillip and Cheryl Parker

ok remember when i said that Phillip was going to undergo some major major revamp? Well, here it is!! Also he has a twin now (y’all can thank @leoswritingcorner lmao)

twin children of Thalia

White (English heritage); from New York but dad is originally from Oxford

12 years old (HoO); wavy brown hair and blue eyes 

have two older step-brothers. one is a law student at freakin’ Harvard and the other is making a name in swimming (soon to be an Olympian tbh)

Phillip

Full Name: Phillip Anthony Parker (PAP lol)

a Tween; pansexual

Very caring and decent kid but with an inferiority complex/insecure. He grew up with siblings who outshone him in everything but he’s gotten used to it. He’s “okay with it”. But is a bit more hurt than he lets on. Thinks he’s a plain Joe.

Gets surprised when people compliment him tbh

He constantly doubts his abilities and this has hindered him from accomplishing so many things or reaching/developing his skills further.

Ends up being a follower; doesn’t really step up even when the situation demands it; doesn’t question authority that much either even when needed

Kind of awkward and absent-minded. Like he zones out a lot. Not very talkative (just right tbh) but will listen to you. 

Isn’t really that into Broadway but absolutely loves Wicked. Also he can’t sing for shit but that won’t stop him from trying!!!!

Tries everything and ends up being “a jack of all trades master of none” person which lowkey bugs him bc all his siblings “have a thing and he doesn’t”

Is super into baseball and a complete film junkie (he has lists and lists of films that he has watched and will watch). Always down for movie night!

Twitter is his life. He’s on it 24/7. And is very inconvenienced by the fact that demigods shouldn’t be using their phones bc they attract monsters...but that won’t stop him.

If he gets stabbed, he’ll most likely tweet about it before dying. 

Says “lol” in real life

Tween FC is (ouat s1) Jared Gilmore; Teen FC is Tom Holland (like this is so perfect fite me omggg also see what i did there lol)

Cheryl

Full Name: Cheryl Louisa Parker

a Crab; bisexual (from hell)

Literally Sharpay Evans meets Regina George. She’s a total drama queen and very mean. Loves being the center of attention and can turn conversations into “all about me” convo. She messes with people because she can tbh.

Wants to be the very best like no one ever was and gets upset when she doesn’t get lead roles.

Very spoiled and is a totally daddy’s girl. Also very petty.

Lives for musical theater! It is her goal in life to watch every musical in Broadway and eventually perform in Broadway...if not then be a drama teacher.

Doesn’t really enjoy Camp that much but goes bc Phillip goes and her dad told her to. People have flashier powers than her.

Dyes her hair a bunch of colors during her teen years bc she thinks her natural hair color is boring.

Takes the whole Tweens vs, Crabs thing way too seriously and always tries to get gossip that could sabotage them. She exempts Phillip though....but is very nosy regarding his personal business (”az ur twin sister”).

Will sign legal documents with a pink glitter pen + walk all over you in 4 inch heel and expect you to thank her

“Phillip, I know you told me to pick my battles...but I’m full of anger rn so I picked all of them.”

Instagram to her is what Twitter is to Phillip

Tween FC is...i’m still looking (any suggestions yo?); Teen FC is Joey King (tentative)

That’s all I got rn for those two! I’m so down to talk connections yoooo
