After all the months Olivia had, had the girls neither one of them had gotten sick. So when Prue got the flu Olivia was out of her game. Her first thoughts were to make sure Eri didn't get sick also. That's how Olivia found herself calling Fin.
"Thanks for agreeing to watch her for a few days."
Olivia said when Fin arrived. Eri was standing next to Olivia ready to go with her pink back pack.
"No problem, but why didn't you ask Casey or Donnelly to watch her?"
Olivia handed Fin Eri's pink duffel.
"From my understanding, from Casey's brief phone chat earlier, Alexa got in a fight. The principal suggested she visit a friend of hers which didn't go well so know their at Liz's having movie night. Eri has too much energy to sit through a bunch of movies."
Fin nodded not needing any more information as Eri moved to stand next to him.
"Bye Mommy." Eri had started calling Olivia mommy not to long after she had moved in with her.
"So kangaroo what would you like for dinner?" Fin asked setting Eri's bag on the couch.
"Chicken nuggets and french fries." Eri said plopping down next to where Fin had set her bag.
"Do you know how to cook chicken nuggets and french fries?" Fin asked not knowing where to start being he lived off take-out and tv dinner.
Eri nodded jumping up. "It's easy you open the box, place them on a pan, and put them in the oven. For the french fries you just put them in the microwave."
Fin nodded grabbing he's keys up again. "Well kangaroo if you want that we need to head to the store."
An hour and a half later Fin and Eri were sitting on the couch plates in their laps enjoying their meal.
"I think we did good kangaroo." Fin said flipping through the channels trying to find something kid appropriate.
"Stop, I love this show!" Eri yelled when Fin reached the Disney channel. "Alexa watches it all the time because it's a spin-off of an older show."
Fin had no clue what he was watching, but Eri was enjoying it so he left it on. By the end of the episode Eri was done eating.
"What do you want to do know since we have a little time before you need to start getting ready for bed?" Fin asked through their plates away.
"Do you know how to play hide and go seek?" Eri asked with her signature smile. Fin felt bad for all the boys Olivia and himself would have to run off.
"I'm not Munch, so yes I do know hide and go seek." Fin said.
"Okay I'll hide you count to a hundred." Eri said quickly before taking of down the hall way.
Fin laughed and put his hands over he's eyes. " 6... 50 51 52 53... 98 99 100. Ready or not here I come."
Fin started he's search in the hall way that only led to two places. One being a guest room and bathroom. The other he's messy and rarely used office that he couldn't remember why he had in the first place. After clearing the guest room and bathroom he headed to the office. At first glance it looked empty until he looked under the desk where Eri had managed to climb and hold on to the legs.(AN:Like how Matilda hides under the table in the movie.)
"You can come down now." Fin said.
Eri smiled as she crawled out from under the desk. "Let's play tag now. You're it!"
Fin sighed knowing that he would be exhausted afterwards. After several of running around and around the apartment Fin was able to catch up to Eri trying to catch he's breath. Eri took the few extra seconds to climb up the hallway walls to then jump down and take off running.
"I'm going to start calling you spider monkey instead of kangaroo." Fin called after her having caught some of he's breath.
Finally Fin was able to grab Eri up and through her on he's back as she giggled. "How do you have so much energy?"
"I don't know, I guess because I want to be a gymnast and that takes lots of energy." Eri said simply.
Fin made a mental note to talk to Liv about putting Eri in gymnastics since she didn't play any sports. "I think you will make an awesome gymnast, but even gymnast need to sleep."
Eri jumped off Fins back and grabbed her bag with her cloths. "Kay Fin, see you in the morning." She said before walking to the guest room.
AN: Just for your knowledge updates will hopefully be a little quicker since I'm currently writing chapter 14 and I have a good idea where the story's going. There most likely won't be that many chapters left, but never fear there will be a sequel.
