Mels woke up in a cold sweat. They had found her, and she was terrified, running, alone. But… She wasn't running, she was in her room, in bed. And she wasn't alone, she realized, turning over to see a sleeping Penny on one side, and touching his shoulder gently, just to make sure he was real. She turned to the other side expecting to see Brian asleep, only to find the bed empty beside her. Starting to panic, though why she didn't know, she started to sit up, and did, when Brian entered the room with a laptop in one hand and a coffee mug in the other. Looking at Mels in surprise, he set both things on the bedside table and climbed into bed next to her. "Mels, it's 3 in the morning. Why are you awake?" He wiped a tear from her cheek that she didn't even know she was shedding. "Are you alright?" She snuggled into him, sighing with relief. "Yeah, it was just a dream. Thank God." Brian wrapped his arms around her, and, unsure of what else to do, patted her back. Mels smiled, and he could feel it against his skin. Sometime later Brian found himself waking up in the same position, holding onto a now-asleep Mels. He smiled, and gently guided the two of them to a laying position. Oh well, he thought, I suppose the world can wait for now. He felt another hand on his shoulder and realized Penny had rolled over and positioned himself so that they were both holding their wife, keeping her safe as a precious jewel. Brian fell asleep with the touch of both of his spouses on his skin.

Melanie and Penny were singing karaoke on a Thursday, at home, while Brian was working on some plan. Mels finished her song and, breathless, turned around and saw Brian sitting on the couch behind them watching the pair of them. After catching her breath, Mels smiled at her husband. "Hey Brian! You got a plan for tonight?" Brian seemed to react in surprise, as if he wasn't expecting to be asked that question. "I-uh-no-I-" He stammered out, seemingly caught off guard. Mels sat next to him. "Is this the plan?" She gestured to where their husband was still singing his lungs out, implying that maybe they don't have to take over the world tonight. Brian wasn't sure how to respond ."N-no" Mels looked disappointed, but she understood. "Right." She got up, and started to walk away, when Brian grabbed her hand, a desperate look on his face. "I meant yes! Please…" He and Mels shared a look of surprise. Brian usually had to be pulled away from his work, and here he was practically begging her to stay? Mels grinned, and sat back down in the seat next to him, with Penny plopping down on the other side of her, having finished his song. He tapped Brian on the shoulder. "So, who's next? I have the perfect song choice for you!" He sprang back up again, only to have Brian stop him with an emphatic "No." He sat back down, and Mels picked up the remote. "Let's just watch some TV instead," she said, hoping that she could stay in between her husbands for the rest of time. Or at least the rest of the night. Brian relaxed, and Mels leaned into him, and Penny leaned into her. Looks like her wish came true, she thought as she searched for a show all three of them would like.
