William dragged himself over to his sleeping fiancee with her lunch, gently placing it on the footrest beside the couch. Melody was already working on setting the table, "Daddy?" She called over to him as she looked at the different silverware in the drawer. "Which ones do you wanna use today?" She asked, holding up a green spoon and a blue spoon.

Chuckling softly to himself at his daughter, Will nodded at the green spoon while taking over their meals to the table area of the kitchen. Grabbing the necessary green silverware to eat the soup and salad, Melody followed him over and set it all out for them. "Eat up," Her father started, looking down at him after setting their bowls down, "and then I gotta get you a nap. You've been up since really early this morning to wait for Auntie Amber." He gently smiled at his little girl before planting a kiss on her cheek and sitting down at the table. Grinning and giggling happily, Melody sat down with him and began eating the wonderful meal for them. What Will had forgotten to mention to his daughter is that he wouldn't be home until late that night because of work. With any luck, Chels would wake up from her nap long enough to watch her soon-to-be daughter. Sheesh... I don't know how we're making it through everything right now between Chelsea pushing summer classes in order to pass through schooling quicker and me working six days awake, and sometimes three nights a week. My parents offered me money to care for Ambs, but they're not giving any of that until school starts in August... Was this the reason they wanted to push her here? She's just so... different... than I'd remembered her to be. William thought about this as his daughter ate up her meal and he slurped his own down as well.
