Fandom: Into the Woods (play/ musical)
Pairing/ Characters: Little Red, Baker's baby
Author's note: So for this one, you have to know that in my head, the four remaining members of the cast (the Baker, Cinderella, Red, and Jack) moved into together and in a sense are a family... without being a family... if that makes any sense! Um, so this is a really small drabble about Little Red and the Baker's son!
The prompt in this one was 'soft' and so in the story it's supposed to be represented not only with the baby's skin, but it's also supposed to be like she's going a little soft... get it? Ahaha, I am not and artist nor a writer! Enjoy anyway! Thanks for reading! 3 Glindy
6. Soft:
If she wouldn't have left, I wouldn't have touched it. She was busy, I understand, and I don't blame her, but my heart beat a little faster when it was just me alone. I don't have Cinderella's motherly instinct. I don't know how to take care of a baby. It was just starting to fall asleep when I finally decided to touch him. I slipped my hand from the baby's back and ran my finger down his arm, starting with his shoulder. His skin was the prettiest thing I've ever touched. It was so smooth and tender. When I got down to his hand, the tiny fingers opened and wrapped softly around my own. My heart fluttered as a smile invaded my face. As I sat and rocked him, I started to think that maybe this taking care of him thing wasn't going to be so bad.
