I woke up to loud noises and peeked outside the window. The trees and bushes were being trimmed so early in the morning. I guess they had other things to do as well. I got busy with my day. Visiting babies was the best moment of my day and keeping them company brought me happiness in huge amounts. I felt ecstatic over it. Babies were the purest creatures to exist on Earth. I’d give anything to have a conversation with a baby.
The babies cooed excitedly as I bounced Hansel and rocked Gretel in her crib.
“Aren’t you my superman?” I asked in a baby voice and Hansel shrieked happily trying to grab my nose.
“Yes, yes you are! You’re my superman! Aren’t you?” I lightly brushed my hands over his nose and he tried grabbing my hand with his tiny hands. Gretel cooed loudly and I turned my attention to her, “You’re my angel too princess! Yes, you certainly are!”
“And you’re one hell of a weirdo!” The voice came from the door and I slowly lifted my head to see who it was. Kayden stood there with his arms crossed over his chest with a displeasing look on his face that asked, what’s wrong with you, you T? I clasped shut my lips in a tight smile.
“Babies! Your big uncle is here, say hello!” I said to them cheerfully and saw Kayden cringe from where he stood. He walked near the babies and bent down to pick Gretel up high in air, “Like they would talk if you tell them to.” He said in a monotone. Okay, the prick’s getting on my nerves! Gretel shrieked loudly as an answer to his comment and I chuckled.
“Oh f**k off! They’ll talk when they’re ready.” He said.
“I can still talk to them whenever and however I want to.” I stuck out my tongue at him and he scoffed at me. His light green-greyish eyes focused on me, my lips especially, “and you can off with yourself. Being mean to me without any reason.” I said sticking my tongue at him. He bent down to playfully let Hansel hold his finger as he surprised me being so close.
“I can’t f**k off just yet. Today is their day with their uncle. You’re stuck with me for the whole day.” He said, making faces at Hansel making me roll my eyes, “Yes, you are stuck me, aren’t you?” He asked Hansel and pulled his finger that was deeply clasped in Hansel’s tiny hand.
“Who’s talking to the babies now?”
“Not me.”
“Sure, weirdo.”
“Hey, knock it off.”
“You started it ass!”
“I haven’t said anything yet.” He said.
“And of course you have short term memory loss too. Today is going to be wild! And apparently, we’re not stuck with you, you’re stuck with us. You’ll wish you never got to know me.”
“I’ll see about that later. Bring them to the mat. I want to change them into dinosaur onesies.”
“Sure, whatever you say your majesty.” I said dramatically and got up as Hansel let go of his finger and he stood up as well. He rolled his eyes at me completely focusing on the babies. I laid down both the babies on the mat and looked for the dinosaur onesies in the closet. He held them up near his face.
“Here! You get one too.” He said handing me an adult size onesie and I looked at him weirdly all confused, “You must be kidding with me!” I gasped at him taking it from his hands. “I bet you the f**k not.” He said and I pushed the onesie in his chest, “Please don’t swear in front of the babies and I’m not wearing this monstrosity! I have to be in my butler uniform all the time.”
“I’m allowing you to wear it. Today is fun uncle day. You’re an uncle too, no one is backing out.”
“Does that include you too? Are you wearing one as well?” I asked all annoyed and he mocked me with a laugh.
“Hah, his royalty doesn’t wear crazy commoner stuff.”
“Why are you being an ass?”
“What is your problem? It is how I say it is or else you lose your job.” He said and I gasped at him hitting his arm, “The f**k you mean by that? You didn’t get me this job, so neither are you disposing me of it. I’ll talk to Anna about it.”
“Got to take one merit off your list if you have those. Calling my sister by her name without shame and that too in front of me. What are you thinking exactly?”
“I’m thinking I would like to punch you. Just one serious punch. You won’t punch me though, your words are enough.”
“Do you always talk this much? Like you have a damn motor fixed in your mouth?”
“And are you always this weird and mean and authoritative?” I asked and he pulled my chair close to the one he was sitting on and we bumped our knees lightly, “Oh you haven’t seen anything yet.” I pushed at his chest wanting to breathe away from his scent. It was driving me insane. I was feeling things with his scent, it was so delicious and sweet. Just the scent was enough for me and I was done for. I was known to have a thing for guys, especially the ones that were dominating and being a shy sub in front of me and this was getting serious for me, I couldn’t tell where his personality laid. One look of pure love towards him and I could get seriously hurt by his punches. I didn’t know how he would take the news of me swooning over him through his s**t.
“Shut the f**k up. I got no desire to know you or whatever you plan on doing.” I said.
“We’ll see about that.” He said and finished doing Hansel in onesie. I shook my head at him and mumbled f**k under my breath over and over again. I was f****d today and there was no escape. Previously, I had desperately wanted to get to bump into him or have him talk to me because of all that mysterious aura around him but now that he was actually near me and talking s**t, I wasn’t sure about it, minus some aura points the way he talked please. I placed my feelings in the sideline and let my mind race in the car tracks. I felt my energy bust coming soon and tried suppressing it. Not being able to control it, I made Gretel sit up and played with her arms like you play with a doll except this doll was alive and breathing and shrieking ever so lovingly.
“You’re so cute, you know that?” I talked to her in baby voice.
“Are you getting paid enough to do this?” And he started again with his nonsense. I rolled my eyes at him.
“I think so, yeah, why?”
“I thought you were street casted with the way you look, all short and clumsy, possibly poor as well.”
“I so am not!!!” I pouted at him, “And you should mind your own business. Stop poking your nose into me.”
“I am minding my business. You’re my business, for now. I would like to know everything there is to know about you since we’re trusting you with our treasure. Isn’t that right kids?”
“I think Princess Anna knows me enough to trust me with this full time job, you don’t have to butt in.” I said laying Gretel down and picking up a plushy.
“You think I have no right to judge you? Who do you think you are?” He asked with a sneer.
“A f*****g nanny if you will. Now leave me alone.” I said having had enough of his s**t and he grumbled under his breath, “Don’t let me catch you slipping up or bye, bye job.”
We spent the day, with me and the babies in dinosaur onesies as I was afraid of making my job difficult with not following his order and he just glanced at me from time to time. We played with the plushies and on the rocking horses and bumpy castle and I had the best day of my life, although he annoyed me here and there, his laugh wasn’t bad at all. I felt like we were growing closer and I hadn’t imagined our meetings or time spent together like this at all. I was surprised at my prejudice about him being a cold, closed-off maniac or just plain rude.
He’s alright. I could live with him. Wait, that was random! I don’t own that thought.
