I don't own anybody but Laura and Ross's little daughters, Isabella and Kaylee. So don't sue. I hope you enjoy it. My new friend on Twitter named admirableLaura and mine's conversation gave me this idea. I hope my story brought her idea to life and did it justice. Review and enjoy. It is so long that it will be split into different chapters.
"Ok beddy bye time munchkin." Ross Lynch said with a smile while he braced himself for the up coming battle of wit and determination that was about to happen. His daughter, Isabella, was quite vocal on not loving the idea of stopping her playing in order to go to bed. She always tried her hardest to stay up as late as she could with stalling tatics. Heck she even tried to stay awake for as long as possible when tucked into bed.
"But dadddddddddyyyyyyy I went to bed last night. Do I really have to go to bed? It is so boring, all you do is sleep and that is not fun. I am not done playing, there is so many games I want to play. And before you say it; I like dreaming when my eyes are open not when they are closed." came the typical-said-everynight- response from the 5 year old girl who was lying on her tummy building a house for her lego family with the multi-colored legos in front of her.
"Bells, we got through this every night. For the hundreth time, yes you need to go to bed. You need sleep in order to have the energy to play hard you like to do. Mommy and I do not want to have a sleepy girl tommarrow when we are ready to play with you girls. Your games can wait until tommarrow so it is time to put away your game and hop into your pjs." Ross said with all the patience of a daddy of 5 years .
Their conversation was interupted by a huge splash of water from upstairs. Soon a yell of "Kaylee, sweetheart, I know you were swimming with Flounder in the ocean but please try to keep the water in the tub. Mommy is trying to wash her little mermaid." could be heard from Laura Lynch to their other daughter. Kaylee,like her twin sister, had a big imagination and was probably pretending she was a mermaid and had gone overboard with her "swimming".
"See Kay gets to keep playing. Why do I have to stop? Not fair." Bella said with a pout and crossed arms. It just made Ross smile at how silly his daughter was being. She would be smiling soon enough as she still needed to have her own bath. This meant more playing with her bathtoys while he struggles to bathe the ever moving little girl. It looks like there will be another bathroom floor covered in pools of water tonight.
"You silly goose, when you clean up your lego, it is bathtime. This means more playing for you and more work for daddy as he makes sure you go to bed squeaky clean." Ross said with a teasing tone in his voice that seemed to be the norm when talking to his daughters. He had to smile when Bella's little eyes lit up at the fact that she got more play time even if she had to get clean while doing it.
According to Bella; the dirtier she is the more fun she seemed to be having. It was very common for Bella to come from playing outside dirty from head to toe but with a big smile on her face and many tales about the adventures she had outside. Then pouts as she is told that she needs a bath which means bye bye dirt until another day.
Tonight was no exception, Bella had come in looking like she had swam in a dirt and dried off by rolling in the grass. Laura had just shaken her head and tried to clean up her squirming little one as best as she could. While she was doing that, Bella rambled on about the day's adventures and Kaylee filled in the blanks that her sister's excitement missed out.
"Well I do like playing with my toys but to play with them I need to go into the water that chases away my dirt and makes me squeak when hugged. So no way hose am I getting into the water, nope, nopers, not happen' daddy." Bella responded with all the sass her parents knew and loved. But Ross just shook his head, scopped Bella upside down and carried her upstairs to the bathroom.
"Daddy, put me down! Right now! I don't wanna go into the water. I don't want to be clean, the dirt is my friend. I want to get dirty tommarrow. Hi mommy. Bye mommy. Mommy help me, daddy is trying to get me clean. Don't let him." Bella loudly protested as her daddy carried her to her bedroom to get her pjs and then to the bathroom where she was put down in order to run the water.
Bella tried to escape but Ross anticipated that she would try to escape in order to make her parents run after her. So before Bella could even try to run, he shut and locked the door which made Bella pout at her plan being ruined.
"Ok baby girl, time to get into the tub. Daddy will try to get you clean as fast as he can so you have more time to play with your toys before bedtime. But first you gotta get undressed". Ross said as he quickly took off Bella's clothing then gathered up the little one who instantly clutched tightly onto his leg then chest.
Once Bella was in the tub, Ross quickly but gently and effectively as he could scrubbed every inch of her tiny body with the turquoise Ross got to her tiny little face, he had to laugh at his daughter sputtering like mad when the water got into her mouth.
But the bathing was done Bella happily played with her toys while Ross watched with a smile. After drying Bella almost like washing machine complete with sound effects which made her laugh and putting on her baby blue onsie, she was carried to her room that she shared with her sister.
"Mommy, I have the bestest idea for a bedtime story. I want to hear daddy and yours lovey dovey, ooey gooey, kissy love story. Every bit of it, no matter if it takes two nights. Was it love at first sight? Was daddy and yours first kiss mushy?" Kaylee said as she rambled on. Her face was alit with her love of anything romantic, sweet or heartwarming. She was always sighing and then squealing over any romantic moment she saw, in real life or in a Disney movie.
"How long did it take daddy to admit he loved you and plant a big wet one on you? Or did mommy plant the first kissy on daddy? How did daddy ask mommy to be his wifey? How about the day that mommy and daddy became wifey and hubby? Or the day Kay and me came into the family? Even if it has some yucky kissy stuff, I wanna know." Bella interjected in the conversation as Ross tucked her in tight.
She wasn't a huge fan of anything romantic or when her parents kissed, she usually hides her eyes and says "yucky", but she does like hearing stories about her parents' lives before her and her sister were born. She knew in her little brain that there will be gushy stuff but she was also knew there would be humor, some sadness and have the most important people in her little life aka her mommy, daddy, her aunts and uncles in it.
Laura just smiled lovingly at Ross as she went over to Bella's bed to kiss her goodnight. The topic of how she and the love of her life fell in love, confessed their feelings, got married and are continuing to live their own fairty tale with their two little princesses was and would always be a favorite topic of hers. She would tell anyone who would listen her gushing, mushy and lovestruck story.
And the fact that her two little sweeties, ok so one sweetie and one little imp, wanted to hear their mommy and daddy's love story made her feel really excited and giddy inside. She had told the girls Ross and hers story many times over the years but this was the first year that she could tell the girls the story and have them actually understand what was being said to them.
