Hi everyone, this is my first H50 fan fiction. I thought it would be nice to write a little fluff story between all the drama fictions. I hope you like it! :)
It was 7.00 when Steve was done with cleaning the dishes after he had dinner with his little daughter. After dinner he had turned on the TV for her so she could watch her favorite Disney DVD. It was almost to quiet in the house for his taste so he decided to check on his daughter. When he reached the living room he found Alexa lying on the floor between some pillows staring at the screen.
"Hey Princess." He said kneeling down next to her before brushing a strand off hair out of her face. "Are you tired?"
Alexandra McGarrett shook her head defiantly and Steve chuckled. "I'm going to run you a bath, ok?"
"But it's not over yet." She complained.
"What if we stop it now, you take a bath and later I'll make you a hot chocolate and you can watch the rest?"
Alexa nodded still looking at the screen. Steve walked upstairs into the bathroom and turning the warm water on. He added her favorite bubble gum scented bubble bath. When he was done he went back downstairs to get his daughter.
"Let's go." He said taking the remote putting the DVD to a halt.
"But Daddy!" the little girl complained looking at her father.
"Remember what I said?" Steve asked and she nodded. "Then let's go. It wont take long."
Alexa got up from the pillows and followed her father up the stairs to the bathroom.
Upstairs Alexa just stood in front of the bathtub full of bubbles but didn't made an attempt to get in.
"You can go in now." Steve said slowly slightly confused. Normally Alexa would jump out of her clothes and into the tube within seconds. "You have to go out." She pointed out taking her father's hand and dragging him out of the bathroom. Steve chuckled. "If you insist?" "Alexa closed the door behind him and Steve waited for a couple of seconds before he knocked at the door. "Can I come in now?"
"Yeah, Daddy!" Alexa called out.
Steve walked in and closed the door again. When he turned around he saw his daughter in the bathtub and he had to laugh. Alexa was covered with bubbles the only thing he could see was her head.
"Are you okay?" Steve asked kneeling down beside the bathtub.
"Yeah, I love it." Alexa replied smiling.
"Have you put more bubble bath in?" Alexa nodded. "Why?" he asked picking up a handful and blowing them towards Alexa. The little girl giggled.
"So you can't see me." She informed him rolling her eyes.
"Alexa, I used to chance your diapers and have baths with you." Steve explained.
"Did not!" Alexa said defiantly.
"Did, too." Steve replied.
"Really?" Alexa asked raising an eyebrow at her father. "Yeah, I think we have some pictures of it."
"Photoshop..." The little girl mumbled and Steve had to chuckle. His daughter had spent too much time with her uncle Danno.
A couple of minutes later…
"Come here I'll was your hair." Steve said taking Alexa's shampoo into his hands.
Alexa moved a little closer to Steve so he could was her hair. "You used to almost fall asleep when I did this to you when you were a baby." He told her, as noticed that Alexa had closed her eyes while he was gentle massaging her head.
"It feels nice." Alexa whispered. Steve had to smile to himself, he loved these small moments he had with his daughter. When he had finished Alexandra's hair, he washed the shampoo out carefully. "Alexa, I'll go and answer this, okay?" Steve said when his phone was ringing. Alexa nodded and with that Steve walked out.
A couple of minutes later he went back in to the bathroom. "Ok, Mommy will be home in an hour. Let's get you out." He turned and grabbed a towel from the rack and held it out for her. But again Alexandra didn't make any attempt to get out of the tube.
"Turn around, Daddy." The little girl said. Steve had to smile as he did what his daughter told him. When Steve stood with his back to her Alexa got out of the bath, bubbles still covering most of her body as she grabbed the towel and wrapped herself in. "Can I turn around again?" Steve asked. "Yes." She answered after she made sure that her whole body was covered.
Steve picked her up and carried her over to her bedroom. "Hmmm, you smell like a bubble gum." Steve said sitting her down on her bed and Alexa giggled. "Mommy bought it." She answered while Steve went to get her favorite pajamas from her closet. When found them he turned back to her.
"Here, get into the PJ before you catch a cold, bubble gum girl." Alexa giggled as she grabbed for her PJ. "Can I have a hot chocolate now?" "Of course you can, sweetheart." He said kissing his daughter on her forehead. Alexa had a big smile on her face as Steve went downstairs to prepare her hot chocolate. Moments later Alexa was already sitting on the couch, when Steve went back to the living room with Alexa's hot chocolate. "Thanks, Daddy." Alexa said after Steve handed her a cup of hot chocolate. Then the two watched the movie together.
