One-shot: Daddy Gets A Hair Cut
Timing: Ella is four, Vinnie is thirteen months, Jude is four months pregnant with Gracie

It was a typical Saturday afternoon in the Spiederman household. Jude was out to lunch with her sister Sadie and her mother, and like always, Jude had taken their thirteen month old son Vinnie with her.

For Speed, he was at home with their little girl who had just turned four the only a few months ago, Ella.

"Daddy, can we plays beauty parlor?" Ella asked as she walked downstairs holding her favorite stuff animal, LuLu Bear.

"I suppose we can El Bear." Speed said picking up his little girl and kissing her.

"YAY! Let's go to my room." Ella said happily as Speed started up the stairs carrying her.

Once he got to his daughter's room he sat her down and watched her dart all over gathering up all the stuff she needed. Once she had everything spread out she ran off to his and Jude's room to collect a few things. Within ten minutes, Ella was giving her dad a make over.

-------------

"Otay Daddy, yous are all done." Ella stated proudly forty minutes later.

"Thank you El." Speed said trying to sound happy as he looked at himself in the mirror. As he looked himself over, his face was almost completely covered in Ella's play make up and some of Jude's. Ella had played with his hair and had it pulled up in numerous little ponytails twisted hair clips and once again colored it with her washable markers. Speed then looked at his hands, his fingernails had been painted as well as his fingers.

"Yous looks perty daddy." Ella stated proudly as she looked at her dad with a huge smile.

"Thanks honey. Can Daddy wash it off now?" Speed asked.

"Nos, Mommy gots to see you." Ella whined.

"Ok, let's go wait for Mommy then." Speed said a little mad as he scooped his daughter up in his arms and walked downstairs.

-------------

"Speed! Ella! We are home!" Jude shouted as she walked in the house with Vinnie in her arms.

"MOMMY! MOMMY!" Ella shouted as she came running around the corner to her mom.

"Hey Princess, did you and Daddy have fun today?" Jude asked her little girl.

"Yes, Daddy and I played beauty parlor and he wants you to come to his studio." Ella told her mom.

"Ok honey, after I talk with Daddy we are going to clean you up. I can see you put makeup on too." Jude said as she looked at Ella's face. Ella had attempted to put lipstick, blush, and eye shadow on.

"Otay, I gos to my room." Ella said as she ran off.

"Want to go see Daddy?" Jude asked Vinnie.

"DA-DA!" Vinnie squealed as he clapped his hands.

"Ok, let's go find Daddy." Jude said as she sat her purse down and started walking towards the basement door to find her husband.

Once Jude got down in the basement, she found her husband sitting on a couch with his guitar.

"You look hot." Jude said laughing as she saw Speed's face and hair.

"Aw, thanks." Speed said as he sat his guitar down and walked up to Jude and Vinnie.

"So, did you and El have fun today?" Jude asked as she backed away from Speed.

"Oh yea, now why do you keep backing away from me?" Speed asked with a smirk as he kept walking closer.

"Because you are up to something, I can see it in your eyes." Jude stated as she felt her back hit the wall.

"Oh, you don't know that." Speed replied as he took Vinnie from Jude. "How is my little boy?" Speed asked his son.

"Fubby." Vinnie said as he pointed to Speed and laughed.

"What are you teaching him?" Speed asked as he looked at Jude.

"You are right buddy, daddy is funny." Jude said with a smile.

"Oh really?" Speed asked.

"Speed." Jude said as she saw him smirking.

Before Jude could completely move, Speed planted a big, wet kiss on the side of Jude's mouth getting her cheek as well. He left a bright red print on her from the lipstick Ella insisted he wear.

"Speed! Gross!" Jude shouted. "You slobbered all over me, you are not an animal." Jude said in disgust.

"That is not what you were saying in bed last night. Shall I refresh your memory?" Speed said in a sing-song voice.

"Shut up." Jude said as she took Vinnie out of his arms.

"Come on Jude, lighten up. Stress isn't good for the baby." Speed said as he placed his hand on her stomach.

"Then don't stress me." Jude snapped.

"Sorry, how about we put the kids in their room and I de-stress you?" Speed asked with a smirk.

"Sometime I wonder if you will ever grow up." Jude stated.

"Hey, if I recall right, you are the one with insane sex drive, though it is pregnancy hormones, but I am not the one who…" Speed was saying until Jude smacked him.

"Not in front of the baby, gosh, you are going to corrupt him." Jude said.

"Sorry, Vinnie, give Mommy a kiss." Speed said.

Vinnie repeated his dad's actions and gave Jude a big wet kiss.

"I am killing you tonight." Jude said as she wiped her cheek off.

"But then who will fulfill all those urges?" Speed asked with a smirk.

"I will find someone." Jude said not finding the humor.

"Ok, I will stop." Speed said as he saw Jude getting angrier with him.

"Good, now I am going to go clean Ella up then we will clean you up. Your hair is a mess." Jude said a she walked around Speed.

"Ok, I will be up in a few minutes. I will take Vinnie too. Can I get a kiss goodbye?" Speed asked.

Jude leaned in real close to Speed before saying, "Nice try, I don't kiss guys in drag."

"Such a tease." Speed said to Vinnie who just made faces at him.

----------------

"Ok Ella, Mommy is going to clean your room then I will wash you, ok?" Jude asked her little girl as she sat in the bathtub.

"Otay Mommy." Ella replied with a smile.

Jude went into Ella's room and gathered up her makeup. When Jude got into her room, she started putting stuff away in her makeup table when she noticed something was missing.

Oh no, my wall tack stuff is gone. No, Ella wouldn't use it on Speed. Or would she? Shit, I should have never told her that stuff was the best for getting impossible things to stay in place. Jude thought as she searched all over for her tack.

Once Jude got back into Ella's room, she found the remains of her tack, but not only that, she found a pair of scissors. Shit Jude thought. Ok, when Ella cut her hair she hid the hair under her bed.

Jude looked all over her daughter's room and could not find any hair. She felt relieved.

Once Jude was done with Ella's bath, she tackled cleaning up her husband.

"Hair or makeup?" Jude asked Speed as she sat at her makeup table.

"Hair, I will then take a shower and get rid of the makeup. You will put that mask stuff on my face first, right?" Speed replied.

"Of course honey." Jude replied with a little laugh.

Jude started taking the clips that were tangled in Speed's hair out first. After four clips Jude found a surprise in the back, middle of Speed's hair.

There was her tacky stuff in his hair. As Jude tried to carefully get it out without Speed noticing too much pulling. She was hoping he would think it was a clip.

"Oh my fucking god." Jude gasped as she pulled the tacky stuff out with a big lock of hair. "What?" Speed asked in horror.

"Uh, hormones?" Jude replied worried. She was hoping maybe the missing lock of hair was hide able.

"Oh, ok." Speed replied as he went back to looking at his magazine.

A few minutes later, Jude found more tacky stuff in Speed's hair, seven places to be exact. All those spots were like the first, they were holding hair Ella had cut on accident Jude assumed.

"Honey, did Ella use scissors at all?" Jude asked.

"No, she was specifically told not to come near my hair with scissors. Playing or not, I am not going to take the risk of her ruining my hair." Speed said.

"Oh, ok." Jude replied as she went back to Speed's hair hoping there was some possible way to cover up those eight missing locks.

"Wait, why?" Speed asked a few minutes later.

"Oh no reason, just curious. Ella had scissors in her room." Jude lied.

"Oh, ok. She had those toy ones her and Callie play with but I told her no." Speed said going back to his magazine.

After ten minutes, Jude had most of the knots and clips out of Speed's hair. Now she was messing with it in hopes of hiding the short spots and was having no luck.

"Honey, have you ever thought of cutting your hair?" Jude asked casually as she messed with it.

"When I am like fifty, yea, but now, no." Speed said.

"Oh ok. Hey Vinnie." Jude said as Vinnie came toddling into the room.

"MAMA!" Vinnie shouted as he started running around the room in his diaper.

"Speed, I think he is most definitely your son. He can't keep his pants on." Jude said with a smirk earning a glare from Speed. "Except, his is literal and yours isn't."

"Very funny Jude, is my hair done yet?" Speed asked failing to find Jude's humor.

"Almost, how about you hold off on that shower and I have your mom come over to watch the kids and we take a shower together? I can wash your hair for you." Jude said quickly.

"And I am the one who can't keep it in their pants, Jude, I can take my own shower and wash my own hair. I would also feel very, very uncomfortable having my mom come over and watch the kids, let alone anyone, so we could go do it in the shower. Don't even bring your hormones into play." Speed stated.

"Fine, I just wanted some alone time." Jude said making herself cry. Anything to distract Speed from his hair was her plan.

"I will make out with you after my shower, that doesn't call for anyone to come over. We might have to listen to Ella complain if she sees us, but oh well." Speed stated.

"Ok." Jude said not knowing what she was going to do next.

"Hey buddy, what do you have there?" Speed asked as he saw something sticking out of Vinnie's hands.

"Shit." Jude gasped as she realized not all the locks of Speed's hair were sitting beside her.

"That…that…that…my…my…hair!" Speed muttered as he took the locks of hair from Vinnie.

"Honey, let's not overreact. It is just hair." Jude said as Speed quickly stood up and snatched the mirror from her hands.

"Oh my fucking god. She destroyed my hair." Speed shouted.

"Honey, calm down. She is four, it was an accident. It will grow back." Jude said as she tried to remain calm.

"Calm? Remain calm? She cut my fucking hair! My hair! What makes me me!" Speed shouted as he slammed the mirror down.

"Speed." Jude said getting worried.

"ELLA MASON SPIEDERMAN GET YOUR ASS IN HERE RIGHT NOW!" Speed shouted at the top of his lungs.

---------------

"Has Ellla stopped crying?" Jude asked Charlie Bateman as she picked up her two children.

"No she hasn't and refused to play with Zora. Zora spent most of the time with Vinnie and her dad." Charlie replied.

"I don't want to go home." Jude complained.

"How is Speed?" Charlie asked as she looked out into Jude's car to see Speed sitting in the passenger's seat with a black beanie pulled down over his head.

"Not good, he cried when he saw his final hair. He looks so much more mature and it is sort of a turn on, but he is having a breakdown over it. He went off on Ella. I have never seen him so angry, and poor Ella, she was crying so hard and it took me twenty minutes to find her once she ran off from him." Jude stated.

"He really cried?" Charlie asked.

"Yes he did." Jude stated as she rolled her eyes.

"Ok, well, let's go find Ella. I left her in Zora's room. She refused her ice cream that I gave her. She also refused to let go of her bear, would that be a good or bad sign since Speed gave it to her?" Charlie asked.

"I honestly don't know." Jude replied.

"There she is, I will get the baby and take him to the car." Charlie said walking off.

Jude walked in the room and sat down beside her crying daughter.

"Sweetie, don't cry." Jude said as she rubbed Ella's arm.

"Daddy hates me." Ella cried harder.

"No he doesn't, he is just sad about his hair. Give him a day." Jude stated as she got Ella to sit up and put her boots on.

"He hates me." Ella cried as she clung to her bear.

"I promise Daddy doesn't hate you baby. He is just mad." Jude said as she picked Ella up.

"Do you love me still?" Ella asked Jude.

"Of course I love you Ella, I will always love my little girl and Daddy loves you too." Jude replied as she made her way out.

As Jude walked out of the house, she passed Charlie.

"Hey, thanks for watching them. I owe you." Jude said.

"No problem, and don't worry about it. You took Zora when Kyle and I had that big blowup about having more kids and I am sure that wasn't the only one. I have a feeling one is coming after he spent a couple hours with Vinnie." Charlie said, not to happy at the end.

"Ok, just call me." Jude said as she put Ella in the car.

--------------

"I hate it." Speed said as he sat at Jude's makeup table and looked at his new hair.

"Well, I love it. You look so much more mature, and it is a turn on." Jude stated from behind as she put on her nightgown.

"You are just saying that." Speed replied.

"No I am not. I think the hairdresser did a good job. She could have gone a lot shorter, but she kept a little length, well, as much as she could. Speed, I am serious when I say I like it. Here, let me mess with it." Jude said as she turned him around to face her.

After five minutes, Jude was happy with his hair.

"Look." Jude said as she turned him around.

"Wow." Speed said as he looked at his hair.

"You like?" Jude asked.

"Actually, it isn't half bad. I rather have my shaggy hair back, but this works." Speed said after a couple minutes.

"Good, now that we have the hair issue somewhat under control, there is a little girl down the hall that thinks her daddy hates her." Jude said.

"I will go talk to her." Speed said getting up, but not before putting his beanie back on.

"Hey!" Jude shouted.

"I am still not use to it, so I don't want to be reminded of it and the hat solves that problem.

--------------

"Ella." Speed whispered as he entered his daughter's room.

Once Speed got in there, he could see she was asleep. Her cheeks were still red from her crying and it made him feel awful. He carefully picked her up and placed her in the middle of her bed and tucked her in and gave her a kiss on the forehead.

"I love you El Bear." Speed said before walking out of the room.

--------------

The whole next day, Ella kept her distance from Speed. Every time he tried to speak to her she would start crying and run off.

"Jude, what am I going to do?" Speed asked as he climbed in bed next to Jude.

"I don't know, you really hurt her." Jude replied with a sigh.

"I didn't mean to." Speed replied.

"Yea, but screaming and yelling and kicking things and hitting things was not the way to go about it. You terrified her and seeing you act that bad out of anger affected her greatly." Jude stated.

"She cut my hair!" Speed stated as he pulled his beanie down more.

"She is a four years old. It was an accident, accidents happen. Ella doesn't understand fully what happened. She knew she made a mistake but you overreacted, she truly believes you hate her from your actions and that right there ruined her. Ella is the definition of a daddy's girl and seeing you act like that traumatized her." Jude reasoned.

"I screwed up." Speed whispered.

"No, you fucked up badly, there is a difference." Jude stated.

"Aren't you supposed to be supportive of me and help me through my rough times, which is now?" Speed asked.

"I am pregnant, I am not supposed to do anything. My hormones also want sour cream sugar cookies and you to strip. Oooh, can you strip and make them? That would be so hot and with your new hair. Oooh, I will make sure Ella doesn't leave her room, you go get started. This is going to be so fun, hurry up Speed." Jude said with a big smile as she got out of bed and disappeared.

"What?" Speed asked with a confused look on his face. Was she serious?

--------------

"Princess, wake up." Speed said as he sat on Ella's bed with breakfast for her and him.

"Daddy?" Ella asked as she slowly woke up.

"Hey El Bear, I brought you yummy pancakes for breakfast. I also brought you a sugar cookie with pink sugar on it and hot chocolate." Speed stated as he moved the tray to show Ella.

"Buts theres two plates Daddy." Ella said shyly, she was still afraid of Speed.

"That is because Daddy is eating in here with his El Bear." Speed stated as he picked her up so he could sit on the bed with Ella on his lap.

"Otay." Ella replied quietly as she grabbed her fork and started to eat her pancake.

Most of breakfast, Ella sat quietly holding her stuffed bear and eating her pancakes. She didn't talk and Speed was not sure how to get her to talk.

"Hold up baby." Speed said as saw Ella reach for her pink mug of hot chocolate.

"Why?" Ella asked not looking at Speed as her little hands still held onto the mug.

"It is still hot, and I don't want you to spill it since we are sitting in bed and it isn't as stable if we were in the kitchen. Let Daddy help." Speed said as he put his hands over Ella's and helped her get a drink.

As Ella sat her mug down, she went to grab the last piece of pancake, but Speed beat her to it.

"Daddy!" Ella whined as she looked up at Speed who had the pancake on his fork.

"What?" Speed asked pretending to be clueless.

"That is mine." Ella stated.

"Oh really? I thought it was mine." Speed replied looking at the fork.

"Daddy! It is mine! See, it has sprinkles on it and Mommy doesn't give you sprinkles." Ella stated.

"Are you sure?" Speed asked.

"Yes." Ella said.

"Ok, I will make you a deal. You give me a kiss and I will give you your pancake." Speed stated.

Ella turned around and stood up and gave her dad a kiss.

"Two kisses and then I give it to you." Speed said with a smile as Ella gave him two more kisses. "Three kisses." Speed said.

"DADDY!" Ella complained.

"Ok, ok, ok, open up El Bear." Speed said as he gave Ella the pancake.

"Thank you Daddy." Ella said with a smile as Speed kissed her forehead.

"You are welcome Princess. You know Daddy loves you don't you?" Speed asked.

Ella just nodded as she started to cry.

"Honey, don't cry. Daddy was angry then but he can never, ever, ever hate his little girl. Ella, I am going to love you forever. I promise, you are my little girl and nothing will ever change that. Ok?" Speed asked.

"I love you Daddy." Ella said crying as she latched onto her dad.

"I love you too, Ella, I really do." Speed replied as she saw Jude standing in the doorway holding Vinnie who was sucking his thumb.

Speed just looked over at Jude and smiled as he held Ella close to him.

-------------

"So, are we ready to show off this new hair?" Jude asked as she styled Speed's hair for him.

"Do I have a choice? You shredded my beanie and I can't find any of the others. You better not have shredded any of my other hats because I won't give a damn that you are pregnant when I go off." Speed stated as he glared at Jude through the mirror.

"You will thank me later, and I still think this new hair makes you look so much more mature and attractive in that sense. Your hats are safe, just maybe not here." Jude stated.

"How does it look in the back?" Speed asked Jude.

"Perfect, now how about you go round up the kids and make sure Vinnie has his pants on, then we drop them off at mom's and go to work." Jude suggested.

"Ok, I will grab them." Speed said as he stood up and gave Jude a kiss before walking off.

---------------

"Hey, you two are late." Wally said as Jude and Speed walked into G-Major.

"Sorry, Vinnie was hiding and then we couldn't get his pants on him." Jude said.

"Whatever, let's go. Speed, dude, what is with the hood?" Wally asked.

"Honey, take off the hood." Jude said.

"Oh my god." Wally said as he looked at Speed's new hair.

"That bad?" Speed asked.

"T, get in here now." Kwest said as he walked around the corner to see Speed.

"What?" Tommy asked. "Is that?"

"What is all this commotion?" Darius asked walking around the corner.

"Dude!" Kyle said as he entered the lobby. "Charlie said you got it chopped off but I thought she was joking."

"Will someone just give me a good or a bad? All this oh my god stuff because frankly…" Speed was saying until Jude smacked him.

"He is still very sensitive to the subject, but I think he looks good." Jude said.

"He looks grown up finally." Tommy stated.

"Man, it does look good." Kwest agreed.

"I guess Ella did good by chopping off half your hair playing beauty parlor." Kyle said laughing.

"Oh man, that is priceless. Did you get your makeup and nails done too?" Tommy asked with a smirk.

"You are so dead Quincy." Speed said as he started to walk towards him.

"Vincent Spiederman, take one more step and I will reveal all those things you tell me never to tell anyone you did for me during pregnancy." Jude said as Speed froze.

"Ooh, come on Speed, get him. I want to hear those; Charlie was awful when she was knocked up with Zora. She wanted me to clean the house in a thong for her, I said no way and it ended in a compromise of me in a Speedo. God, that was awful and I don't…shit." Kyle said realizing he had just told everyone something he never intended to be told.

"How about we all go record and stop wasting my valuable studio time?" Darius suggested.

"Let's go." Wally said as he and Kyle darted off.

"It does look good Vin." Darius said before he disappeared.

"Come on honey, I promise you that you look fine." Jude said as she grabbed Speed's hand and walked towards the studio.

--------------

"Daddy?" Ella asked as she walked into her parent's room that night.

"What El?" Speed asked as he sat on the bed with his notebook.

"I sorry I cutted your hair off but I like your new hair. You look more like a daddy now." Ella stated as she crawled into the bed.

"How much did Mommy pay you to say that?" Speed asked.

"Mommy didn't tell me to say it, she is giving Vinnie a bath and he bit her." Ella stated.

"You promise?" Speed said as he looked Ella in the eye.

"Yes." Ella said as she nodded her head.

"Ok, come here." Speed replied as he picked Ella up.

"Are you still mad?" Ella asked.

"A little, but I should have been paying attention too. Are we all better?" Speed asked.

Ella just nodded.

"Ok, how about we go watch Toy Story?" Speed suggested.

"I want to!" Ella said happily.

"Can we ask Mommy and Vinnie? You know Vinnie likes that movie too, it is the only thing that can keep him in one place." Speed asked.

"Cans I sits on your lap the whole movie?" Ella asked.

"Of course, so can we ask them?" Speed asked.

"Yes." Ella said with a smile as she laid her head on Speed's shoulder.

"Alright, let's go." Speed said as he climbed out of bed holding Ella.

As Speed walked past the mirror, he stopped and looked at himself. This hair cut was most definitely unexpected, but he had to admit, he looked more mature and maybe Ella was right, he looked more like a dad. It would take some getting use to, but he could do that, for Ella of course.
