Goodbye Dinner
"Paige already ate, but if she get's fussy, I have some cut up peaches in the bag she can eat. I also have some jars of baby food in there, but lately she prefers chewing her food because she has teeth now," Stacy said quickly, filling in the two helpers that Caine loaned out for the night. I watched as she told them just about every little detail about our troublesome daughter.
"Stacy," I said after checking my watch. "We're going to be late for our dinner reservations."
"Yeah, just one more thing sweetie," she said, waving her hand at me as if waving me off. I rolled my eyes and walked over to her. Quickly, and swiftly, I swung her over my shoulder, causing her to start kicking and screaming.
With a sigh, I said, "Look, when I come back to pick up the she-devil, she better be in the perfect condition we left her as. That means, if there is a single scratch or bruise on her body, or even a single hair missing from that head of hers…I promise that you're going to wish you were never born."
Both helpers' eyes went wide in fear, but nodded in understanding.
I smiled at them. "Good, now that we've come to an agreement, time to go. Have fun, she's a real angel when she wants to be."
I didn't put Stacy down until after we walked outside.
"Drake, why did you do that?" She yelled, not going into the passenger seat. Without a word, I pushed her in and got into the driver seat. When I did, she asked again, but this time with a more demanding tone.
"Why else," I grumbled, backing out of the huge driveway. "We were going to be late and this is our first time alone without Paige around. I wanted as much time as we can possibly get…"
"There has to be a more romantic way to say that," she sighed.
"Hmm…" I smirked. "How about, I wanted to enjoy every second I have a lone with my beautiful wife, so I had to pull her away as quickly as possible."
"Cheesy," she said with a small chuckle.
"Well, I'm out of ideas," I mumbled. I glanced at the time to make sure we weren't late, not that I honestly cared, simply that there was no way I was going to wait in line for small proportions at outrageous prices.
Stacy let out another sigh, but didn't say anything else for a little while, which was fine with both of us. Neither of us needed to talk twenty-four-seven. It was one of the many perks in our marriage, we were both fine with silence. Of course, we talked, but we didn't have to.
Suddenly, Stacy gasped, "Oh my god! I forgot to pack Paige's blanket!"
At first I almost braked right there in the middle of the street, I was just lucky it was empty. However, hearing the last bit, I let out a groan. "Jesus Christ, Stacy. Paige won't die without her blanket. I'm sure Caine has thousands in that damn mansion of his."
"But Drake, she can't go to sleep without her blanket. It's her special blanket," she protested loudly.
"Stacy, Paige hardly ever sleeps, I think she'll be fine," I grunted, irritated.
"What if she-"
"Stacy, unless they call us and tell us our daughter is raising hell because she doesn't have her blanket," I grumbled. "I think everything will be just fine."
"Wait, do they have our numbers?" She asked worriedly. I rolled my eyes.
"Unfortunately," I grunted.
"You sure? Do they have both our cell phone numbers?"
"Stacy," I began, my lips now set in a grimace. "Please, just take a deep breath and remember this is Caine we left our daughter with. They have our numbers and even if they didn't, they would know how to contact us in case of an emergency."
Just then, sadly, Stacy's cell phone rang. I groaned when she picked up, but froze up when she screamed.
"SOMEONE KIDNAPPED HER!"
...
Well, there goes our dinner reservation.
