Jason and Kylie spent several more hours with Chance, Chase, and Katie, they were so happy to see the girls.
"Mom, what's wrong?" Kylie asked seeing a longing on her face.
"I miss having pups around," she said as the babies giggled when she made faces at them.
"Maybe if we bring them around more it will calm you down a little," Jason suggested.
Katie smiled, "I would really love to see them more."
"We will have to set up times, I am not walking in here again while you three are busy," he said with a shudder.
Chance burst, "You like getting the pointers."
"Ew, Dad," Kylie said with a shiver. "We are going to head back," Kylie said looking worn out, she kissed them all goodnight and they each took one of the girls as she flashed them back. They put the girls to bed and changed, going to bed themselves. Griffin was already asleep when they arrived.
"I love you, Kylie, "Jason whispered against her ear as she nuzzled in falling asleep.
A few hours into the night, Griffin woke her and they headed to the dome.
Kylie spent hours looking over her charges, they finally headed back to bed. Kylie went into the bathroom and washed her face, then brushed her teeth. Griffin was in complete shock when he felt her getting into his bed. Kylie felt him tense but quickly relax as she placed her head onto his chest. He slowly wrapped his arms around her as they fell asleep in each other's arms.
The biggest smile spread across his face when he heard her whisper, "I love you, Griffy."
"I love you too Goddess," he whispered back as they both drifted off, completely content.
Jason awoke to Skye's tiny cry, she was hungry. He got off the bed and looked over seeing Griffin holding Kylie. She stirred hearing Skye.
"I can get her," he said so she would go back to sleep.
"No, it's ok. I will feed her." Kylie said starting to remove her covering to nurse.
Jason handed her Skye and then went to get Valentina. "He looks happy," Jason commented nodding toward Griffin.
"I think he is," she said staring at Jason.
Griffin was still partially asleep but started focusing on the voices.
Jason nodded, "You love him."
Kylie nodded, "I do, I told him." she said studying his face.
"It doesn't change how much I love you," Jason said caressing her face.
"I love you too," Kylie said.
