Erin and Jay, were asleep, until Marcus woke up, crying.

"It's your turn, babe" Jay whispered.

Erin nodded, and got up.

"Hey, Little man, what's got you so upset?" Erin cooed.

Marcus fussed, and cried.

"Shh. You'll wake daddy." Erin shushed softly.

Jay opened his eyes, and smiled.

"Is he teething?" Jay wondered.

"I think so, I'll give him his teething ring." Erin spoke.

Jay nodded, and fell back to sleep.

"Here's your chewy ring, bubs." Erin smiled.

Marcus settled down, as he chewed his ring.

"That's it, Marcus." Erin smiled.

Once. Marcus was asleep, he got placed into his bassinet.

"You okay, baby?" Erin asked.

Jay nodded, and sniffled.

"Jay? Talk to me, babe." Erin soothed.

Jay wiped his eyes, and closed them.

"Hey, come here." Erin opened her arms.

Jay snuggled into Erin's chest, and broke.

"Not you as well, Jay..." Erin Joked.

Erin rubbed Jay's back, in an attempt to settle him.

"I-It's Hailey's funeral, tomorrow." Jay admitted.

Erin remembered Jay mentioning the funeral, and it broke her heart, to see her husband in so much pain.

"Oh, baby, I'm so sorry." Erin apologised.

"N-Not your fault..." Jay sniffled.

"Do you need me to hold you, bubs?" Erin wondered.

Jay nodded, and lied his head on Erin's chest.

"Alright, that's fine, I got you." Erin comforted.

Jay smiled, and closed his eyes.

Lily walked into the bedroom, and saw Erin and Jay.

"Daddy, okie?" Lily babbled.

Erin looked up, and smiled.

"Yeah, daddy has a headache, sweetie, just needs some sleep." Erin responded.

Lily nodded, and sat on the bed.

"Night, Mama!" Lily whispered.

Erin smiled, and closed her eyes, then fell asleep.
