Dante made his way to the PCPD, taking a seat at his desk he noticed the pile of folders awaiting him. He knew today would be along day especially since his mind was on other things. He couldn't stop thinking about his daughter and her first day of school, he was happy to see that she had adjusted so easily and had already made a friend when he left. But he had pictured things going a little differently, he had imagined that he would need to stay with her because she didn't want him to leave her. But there was no way around it his little princess was growing up.
And he couldn't stop thinking about her teacher, Lulu Spencer. She was beautiful and her smile was like a ray of sunshine. He could tell that she really loved kids and that she would be wonderful with his daughter. But there was something about her, something he couldn't put his finger on but he knew that he wanted to find out what it was.
"Detective Falconeri?" he heard someone say as he turned to face them.
"Yeah," he replied.
"I'm Lucky Spencer. I heard today was your first day and I wanted to welcome you."
"Dante Falconeri, it's nice to meet you." "Wait are you related to Lulu Spencer?" he asked.
"Yeah she's my little sister."
"I met her earlier when I dropped my daughter off at school."
"Oh yea. She just loves spending her days with those kids, I don't know how she does it." Lucky said as he clapped Dante on the back and headed over to his own desk.
Dante sighed as he looked at his watch, he had to pick up Arianna soon and he had just been called out on a B and E. Dialling the school's phone number he asked to speak to Ms. Spencer, "Hi it's Arianna's dad Dante Falconeri. I met you this morning." Dante said hoping she would remember him.
"Yeah I remember."
"I was wondering if I could ask you a huge favour, I'm stuck at work and I can't come pick up Arianna right away..."
"And you want me to watch her until you can come for her?" she replied.
"Do you mind? Because I can...?"
"Of course I don't mind. I'd be glad to watch her, take as long as you need."
"Thank you so much."
Dante smiled as he hung up the phone, he didn't know why but he was looking forward to seeing her when he picked up Arianna later.
After finishing up for the day he made his way over to the school, looking through the door in the classroom he noticed Arianna sitting on Lulu's lap as she read a book to her. It had to be the cutest sight he had ever seen. Opening the door Lulu looked up from the book she was reading, "Hey."
"Hey sorry I took so long."
"Oh it's alright."
"Daddy, I had so much fun today." Arianna said as she ran and jumped into his arms.
"You did? You'll have to tell me everything over pizza."
"Pizza, yay. Daddy can Ms. Spencer come for pizza too?"
