So apparently I do have it in me to write fluffy cuteness.
I don't own Total Drama.
"Come on baby, talk for Mama!" Sierra cooed, her hands clutched together under her chin.
"Sierra, don't use baby talk, it's demeaning to him and to yourself." Cody said.
"But Codykins-"
"Come on, hon. He's seven, he's too old for baby talk now."
The little boy gestured at his father with one hand, palm-up.
"See, he agrees with me."
"Come on Beverly!" Sieraa pleaded with her son, dropping to her knees in front of the little boy. "Say something for me, please. The doctors said you can talk – you have the ability to!"
Much to Sierra's disappointment, their son looked more like his mother than he did his father. Sierra still loved him – because as much as he looked like her, he was half Cody as well. Genetically, at least. Cody didn't think his son looked anything like him, he was the spitting image of Sierra.
Cody sighed and walked into the hallway. Sierra just didn't seem to get it. B wasn't gonna talk. He could, but wouldn't – that's what all the specialists had said.
Sierra was infuriating. He'd reminded her every day for the past seven years that baby talk was detrimental to a child's development, that's what all the parenting books said. But he had to remind Sierra that at least once a day, every day.
Sierra on a daily basis was more tiring than their son had ever been.
"I have to go to work now, Poppet." Sierra cooed, and Cody could almost see her cupping their son's face in her hands, kissing him once on each cheek and then once on his forehead and once on his nose. "Bevvy, can't you say a little something for Mommy before she has to go?"
Cody felt like screaming. Maybe our son doesn't talk because you named him BEVERLY.
But he didn't. Instead, he turned around and walked back into the foyer and gave his wife a good-bye kiss on the cheek. "Have a good day at work, sweetie."
"I'll be thinking of you, Codykins!" she said. "And you too, my little Beverly-Bear."
Beverly waved goodbye to his mother.
When they heard the door click closed and then Sierra's car start up, both father and son breathed a unified sigh of relief.
"I got something for you." Cody said after a moment, walking into his office for a moment, then emerging with a cardboard box. "I know how much you like to fiddle around with computers and such while I'm working, so I got you one of your own to play around with."
The pure joy on that little boy's face at that moment said far more than words ever would.
