[CLOSED] broken and bruised; longing for you.

Bandit toddled over to their bed, Deacon helping her in since it was a little too tall for her, especially with a doll in one arm. She pulled her blanket up on the bed, then crawled between the two of them, wiggling her way to the pillows.

"There's something between us." Deacon teased, pulling her little blanket up around her. "What's the matter, princess?"

"I haves a bad dream." She said, reaching down to fix her doll's dress. "I sleep with you?"

"I'm gonna cuddle daddy around you."

"No. My daddy." She said, wrapping her good arm around Connor's neck.

"I had him first."

"Hims love me more."

Connor smiled at her faintly, tears dryin on his cheeks. He wrapped his arm closest tothe bed around her, hugging her tightly against him. "I love y-you princess.." He breathed, kissing the top of her head. He reached over with his free hand, pulling Deacon closer as well, body relaxing, happy despite how broken he was about his brother. He had two perfectly amazing people right here to worry about.

"Yub you too, daddy." She said, curling up against his chest. Deacon didn't bother, just got up and walked around the bed to climb in behind Connor. He wrapped his arm around his waist, kissing his neck gently. "I love you, handsome." He breathed, heard Bandit humming herself to sleep. He slowly ran his hand over his stomach, closing his eyes sleepily.

When Deacon got up, Connor wrapped his other arm around Bandit as well, smiled slightly and closed his eyes. "Mm..l-love you too..." He breathed, nestling down between the two, perfectly content now. He yawned softly, hoping Deacon would be able to get Nash back for whoever was out there missing him. Especially Aubri. He hadn't talked to her in awhile, but he knew she needed him. With that on his mind, he was soon drifting off into sleep.
