A lot of things were confusing and different, but Ally never was. She would always be Grace’s constant. She knew that. She smiled at her sister’s whisper and nodded big. It was enough to make Hayden wonder what they were talking about. “Count to three,” she confirmed as quietly as possible. With was what they always did. “One.” They always pounced once they said three. “Two.” If Kaiden heard them, they wouldn’t know what was coming. Besides, she loved doing this to their dad. It sounded fun to do to him too. “Three!” She immediately barreled into Kai knowing that her sister was coming too. Hayden’s eyes widened, and his hand moved up to his mouth, but he was stifling a laugh instead of doing anything about it. ​

Allison heard her sister’s confirmation and tried to hold back the giggle of excitement. “Right. To three.” She said softly, counting down with her sister. Kaiden looked at the two, watching them and wondering just what was going on when the word ‘three’ rang in the air. Allison, in sync with her sister, barreled into Kaiden who fell backwards, laughing as the two little girls dog piled him. He wrapped his arms around them and grinned, both hands going to tickle their sides. “You toppled the little shark. Now he’s going to eat you up!” Kaiden said, both arms holding one of them and his fingers trying to tickle what he could. Allison immediately started giggling and laughing, while squirming at the fingers tickling her sides. Josh chuckled, seeing the sight before him. It was adorable and he loved this for his son.​

The giggles started immediately. Grace laughed so hard when Kai tickled her. She was so ticklish. Her dad knew all the right spots to hit, and without even knowing that, so did Kai. She assumed it must have just been a fatherly figure angel type thing. Her face started to hurt from laughing so much as she screeched and squealed where they were. The front door opened again, but she was having far too much fun to even look. She vaguely heard the sounds of someone walking closer. Hayden smiled at Ezekiel as he watched this display with both raised brows. He stood there for a moment and then decided that this was not something he wanted to interrupt, so instead he just watched. A little smile played at the edges of his lips as he observed his partner playing with these little girls. He had so many questions, but they could wait.​

The moment he heard Grace’s hard laughter and Allison was laughing just as hard, made Kai’s heart happy, and his smile was so big it hurt. Giggling and squealing as Kai managed to tickle the spots that really got her. Allison barely heard the door open and shut. Kai was too busy making ‘chomping’ noises as he continued to tickle the two girls. “Okay I think this shark is getting full.” Kaiden said, breathlessly as he laughed. His fingers stilled as he sat up, holding the girls in his arms. Kai looked up to see Ezekiel standing there and smiled. “Hello my love. Girls. I want you to meet a wonderful man. Allison, Grace. This is Ezekiel and love, this is Allison and Grace.” Kai said, holding the two with that same big smile on his face. Josh had seen Ezekiel come in and he was curious as to his reaction. Allison caught her breath and looked at him. “Hello.” Ally said with a small smile.​

Grace was still giggling as Kai stopped, wishing it would last longer while also needing to catch her breath. She fell back so that she was still standing but heavily leaning against Kai as she turned around to see who Kai was talking to. This new person felt so tall even though he wasn’t really any different than anyone else. She grabbed her sister’s hand and the sleeve of Kai’s shirt as she stared at this new man who smiled lightly at them. It didn’t seem to fit his face. His cheeks had these big scars that made him look harder. Ezekiel crouched down, intrigue written all over his face. “Hello.” His lips flicked up with a question he would ask later. Hayden, however, felt the need to answer some of it. “Kai and Theo found them out on patrol.” Ezekiel looked at him. “Alone.” Ezekiel nodded and looked back. Naturally they would bring them here to Hayden. People did that on the rare occasion that they found children or had children who lost their parents. Hayden was a good in between. Somehow he was both a scientist and a child whisperer. “So you are the reason Kaiden didn’t finish his patrol.”​

Kaiden felt Grace take his shirt sleeve in one hand and he used his hand to rub her side gently. Allison felt her sister take her hand and yet her eyes never left Ezekiel’s face. Those scars on his cheeks made him look hard and stern. Her eyes moved to Kaiden curiously and then to Ezekiel again. “He saved us. From the monsters. He and Theo.” Allison said, not knowing what the word patrol meant. She didn’t let go of her sister’s hand but she wanted to see this new man. He was at their level now after he’d crouched down. Allison moved from Kai’s side and looked at Grace. She was torn, because she didn’t want to leave her sister but her curiosity was growing. Kaiden looked at them and smiled warmly. “It’s okay girls. He doesn’t bite I promise.” He said softly, yet he knew he had to talk to Ezekiel about them. He didn’t want to leave them with Hayden even though he knew his dad was good with kids. He wanted to care for these two.​
