Sam jigged Louis so he held him with just his right arm, the baby crooked into him against his chest as he turned to Brooklyn.

"You okay babe?" he asked her, with a smile on his face. Brooklyn was an emotional woman - they were an emotional couple who were not afraid to show their feelings with each other. It was unusual to see Brooklyn cry as he walked through the door - that was true, and yet there was something about the season, and being at home all day with Louis all day that he thought made them both appreciate being together.

"Come here," he said opening up his other arm, kissing Brooklyn softly on her cheek. He could taste the saltiness of her tear, damp against his lips and hoped there wasn't a sadness to her tears.

"Rough day?" he asked, putting his other arm around her. He turned to Louis, "you been crazy today Son?"

He loved his family in his arms, it made coming home ever so sweet.

"Just let me get my jacket off and I'll cook dinner. I'll make something nice for us all."
