"No, kid!" Quil called out to the running two-year-old.
Claire ran towards the mud puddle laughing. Quil almost had a hold of her when she jumped into the puddle. Quil sighed and smiled down at her.
"Kwill!" Claire squealed and grinned mischievously up at him, slapping her tiny hands in the water.
Quil crouched down beside her. "Do you enjoy getting me in trouble?"
"Kwill, Kwill, Kwill," Claire sang, pulling mud out of the water and onto her pants.
Quil smiled and ran his hand from the top of head to her neck, petting her black hair. "Alright, out of the mud," Quil said picking her up. Claire squirmed and frowned.
"Kwill!"
"I know, I know." Quil held her out to keep from getting muddy. "But you'll catch cold, mudbug."
A/N: This one was short, so I uploaded Chapter 2 also. I hoped you liked it! Thank you my Beta! =]
