Grandpa Marth

Chapter 1: Spending the weekend

By Mr. Kite

Chrom and Robin were a happily married couple with two kids; a 17 year old daughter named Lucina and an 8 year old son named Morgan. They loved their kids, but lately they felt they needed a vacation. Robin and gotten a free weekend trip to a spa from her friend Kris. During the week the two plotted where to send the kids while they're away. Late one night while getting ready for bed, Robin deciding to call her parents.

"Really dad? Why not!?" Robin whined into the phone.

"I'm sorry Robin, but I'm much to busy this weekend and your mother won't be home till Monday." Validar told his daughter. Robin huffed, "Don't act that way young lady! Can't anyone else watch them for the weekend?" Validar said.

"I'll try someone else. Thanks anyway dad." Robin said, hanging up. She gave a large groan. Chrom looked to her with a confused look.

"What happened?" Chrom asked.

"Dad just said he can't take the kids this weekend." Robin said in sorrow.

"Damn.." Chrom cursed.

"What about your dad?" Robin asked.

Chrom sat back, "My dad.. what about him?"

Robin face palmed, "Why not send the kids to your parents place for the weekend. I'm sure they'd like to see them, plus they see my parents enough as they should. It'd be nice for Lucina and Morgan to get to know your parents better."

Chrom sighed, nodding in agreement with his wife. Chrom took the phone from Robin and dialed his parents numbers. Hearing the ring his mother picked up.

"Lowell residence, Caeda speaking." Caeda introduced.

"Hey mom. It's me." Chrom murmured.

"Chromy!" Caeda shouted, "Oh my god it's been ages! How're you? Are my grandkids alright?"

"Yeah mom, they're fine. Listen, I need to ask you something." Chrom said hesitantly.

"What is it dear?"

"Robin and I are having a second honeymoon of sorts and wanted to know if you and dad could watch the kids for the weekend." Chrom explained.

"We'll be delighted!" Caeda said excitedly, "When are you bringing them?"

"Uhh. I was thinking Friday. That ok? I know how dad can get when his weekends are interrupted."

"Nonsense. Friday is fine, I'll talk to your father. You just brings grand babies down Friday." Caeda told Chrom, excitement filling her voice.

"Thanks mom, you're the best." Chrom said to his mother.

"I know dear. Love you, see you Friday." Caeda said, hanging up.

Chrom hung the phone up, letting out an exhausted sigh. "So, sounds like we found a sitter." Robin joked.

Chrom nodded, "Mom said to bring them down Friday. She'll talk to dad and make sure he's clear on what's going on."

"That's perfect." Robin said, setting down a cheesy romance book. She curled next to Chrom. "Now lets get some sleep." She said as the drifted off.

At Chrom's parents, Caeda was giggling with glee. Marth entered the bedroom tired. He lied down next to his wife with a confused look. "What's wrong?"

"Whatever do you mean dear?" Caeda said with a smile. Marth gave a blank expression. "Ok fine. Our little Chromy is bringing our grandkids over for the weekend."

Marth sat up, "When did you discuss this?"

"While you were showering."

"Of course you were. So we're having our grandkids over this weekend?" Marth asked, getting under the covers.

Caeda nodded. "And I want you to be on your best behavior." Marth nodded, placing his head on the pillow. "Marth are you listening to me? I don't want you to cause any trouble."

"Yes dear." Marth said drowsy. Caeda gave up and turned the lights off, going to sleep and preparing for their weekend.

Like it? I hope so. I should explain its a modern AU where Marth and Caeda are the parents to Emmeryn, Chrom, and Lissa so I could have Lucina and Morgan refer to the pair as Grandma and Grandpa. Well please leave a review and tell me what you think and most importantly; have a nice day.
