"Daddy?" A child's voice muttered, nudging me in my sleep.
"Daddy, wake up!" Another pair of voices chimed together, nudging me as well.
"Merp..." I muttered, slowly sitting up, my shirt missing leaving only my bare chest. "What is it...?" I grumbled, trying hard to open my eyes.
"Franklyn and Frannie are coming over to day; did you forget?" Teddy asked, climbing on to the bed and sitting on my lap; it was obvious he didn't even bother to brush his hair; it was still a sloppy brown mess.
"Yeah, coming over!" Shiloh and Mag chirped, climbing on the bed as well and sat besides their brother, staring at me with their bright green eyes as their heads gently tilted to the side.
"Alright, alright," I yawned, placing them off the bed and swinging my legs over to the side, "I'm goin', I'm goin', but you gotta tidy up first, kiddos. Now go." They squeed slightly and nodded, each of them bolting to their room.
I turned around to look at the still sleeping lump on my bed lying besides me. Silent as a mouse, not a single snore, it was simply curled up slightly and facing my side. I smiled, nudging it.
"Hey..." I whispered, swinging my legs back on the bed and sitting besides it.
It shuffled slightly and grunted, tugging at the sheets.
"Come on...wake up," I chuckled, leaning over and wrapping an arm around it, "Kids are up already and ready to go."
Finally, it uncovered it's head and looked up at me.
"They do get rather excited when Franklyn and Frannie come over, don't they?" Isaac chuckled faintly, his eyes still closed as his voice remained groggy.
"You'd think we'd know by now." I grinned, leaning down and kissing his cheek. "Good morning, honey." I whispered into his ear, pulling him closer.
"Good morning, love." He chuckled, opening one eye and turning slightly to kiss my chin; he was still warm from being under the sheets. He nuzzled my neck and placed his hand on mine, interlocking fingers, his kiss beginning to move higher and higher until our lips met for the first time of the day; a moment of bliss between us.
"Ewwww~" Giggles were exchanged back and forth, causing our heads to turn and look at the door, spotting three fully-dressed children snickering and watching us.
"Dad and Daddy were kissing!" Shiloh and Mag pointed out, referring to me as Dad and Isaac as Daddy.
"Gross!" Teddy made a silly face, poking his tongue out.
"Okay, okay, I get it," Isaac rolled his eyes and sat up, the kids quickly running over and jumping on the bed, hugging him tightly. He wrapped his arms around them and held them for a second before pulling away and looking them over.
"Dressed already, I see." He smiled, the three nodded together.
"Yeah! Franklyn and Frannie are coming over today, so Dad said to go get dressed!" Teddy said proudly.
"Yup, yup!" The twins said simultaneously, then giggled and pointed at the both of us, "You need to get ready, too!"
I smiled and nodded, "I know, I know." I swung my legs to the side of the bed again and left Isaac with the kids, walking into the closet and beginning to get dressed, and boy, was coming out of that stuffy closet the most wonderful thing to have happened to me.
Nothing fancy, just a random thing I wrote out of boredom.

Well done. It is not easy to write a running conversation with that many characters talking. It is a challenge to keep the reader from getting lost, as to who is speaking.

You will find that if you use strategic paragraph breaks, it will flow even smoother.

I liked the story line.
