Specs and Tucker had been sitting in the Lamberts basement all day.

Elise assigning them there to keep a eye on any paranormal activity going on down there which was none.

But there they sat Tucker fiddling with some tech stuff and Specs sitting bored beside him on a old pull out sofa that's turned gray due to the dust collecting over the years.

"Alright Specs?" Tucker looking up through his hair at him only half interested in the answer.

Specs mumbling something under his breath that not even Tucker could understand in response.

This was Tuckers first hint that Specs was tired and possibly slipping as they spoke. Tucker could admit he wasn't quite a sensitive person but when it came to little specs he couldn't help be in complete awe of him.

"Want to try that again little guy?" Tucker trying to coax Specs into tell him what's wrong.

But all he got in return was a one word mumble.
"Little.."
"Yeh I thought so what age"

Specs holding up a lazy 4 fingers

"Very small aren't we?" Tucker said almost teasing

"Why don't we get some shut eye for abit yeah?"

Specs almost instantly nodding as Tucker stood up grabbing there bags and pulling out Specs favourite pair of space invaders pjs that he wore to bed almost every night no matter how many times Tucker told him they are ridiculous looking.
He helped little specs get into the pjs unbuttoning his shirt for him and helping him slip into the comfy pyjamas.

Before getting himself into his own jogging bottoms and white tshirt unrolling his and specs sleeping bags on the uncomfortable floor.

Specs tiredness getting the best of him as he layed down as soon as he could getting comfortable.

"Nuh uh baby no glasses on while sleeping" Tucker having to remind him for the hundredth before gently taking them off his face and putting them safely in the front pocket of his bag where Specs will forget and panic while trying to look for them in the morning.

Spotting specs black pacifier with a little white ghost drawn on the front after being pretty certain that no one was gonna come down during the night (not like Elise would say anything anyway)

Tucker popped the paci in Specs mouth the smaller man replying with grabby hands.
