â    it wasnât the noise that woke him up, but the tugging sense in his gut that something was wrong. Steve had experienced that feeling often since his girls had come home. falling back into the role of the parent came as easy as breathing as soon as he laid eyes on Margot, but what he hadnât expected was how quickly the feeling would extend over to Lex. now, his gut tugged constantly, always feeling a need in the back of his mind to check on both his girls. it was that feeling that woke him up, but the soft padding in the other room was what had him getting out of bed. Steve wasnât sure which one of the girls was up, but he wouldnât get an ounce of sleep until he checked to make sure they were okay.Â
keeping the balance between quiet enough to not wake up the kiddo that was still asleep and loud enough to alert the other one that he was awake and coming to find her, Steve moved out of his room and out to the living room. as soon as his eyes met Lexâs he sent her a soft smile. â hey Goose, whatâs got you awake at this time? â he asked, casually trying to mask his concern. â is it a hot chocolate night? âÂ
