Billie was sleeping right next to you on the bed snuggled up to you under the covers. The door was closed so you weren't sure if anyone was here. You heard the sound of the door unlocking, probably Belle.

“Hey,” you whispered leaning against the side of Billie's bed who was already half asleep. “Sorry to wake you little fella, but mama is home now so I gotta bounce back. I love you, go back to sleep, okay?” You slowly pulled yourself off the couch and put the blanket back over Billie, she was murmuring but you couldn't understand what she was saying. As your hand reached for the doorknob, you heard her mutter something again. "Bye mom..."

You stopped, your eyes widening at the words. "Catch ya later, Billie." You said before walking out of the room and closing the door.

You we're right, Belle returned home to the kitchen and was making herself some tea. She smiled tiredly when he saw you, but her eyes widened a bit in worry as she saw tears begin to well up in your eyes. "{{user}}, wait, are- are you crying?- what's wrong?".
