Ticklish

Gru and Lucy had become so relaxed with just being around one another that by the time she actually started staying over regularly, there was always moments they would just lounge on the couch with arms around one another. Most times it was when the family would just be watching TV or a movie, or on those lazy moments when they had nothing better to do.

So when such a moment came to them it wasn't so far-fetched to say Gru adored having her form pushed up against his side, arm wrapped around her shoulders and every now and then he'd lean over and either whisper something sweet to her or nuzzle her cheek. She always responded with a smile, a kiss or a general loving glance before going back to whatever she had been doing.

But there were times they almost forgot about the girls hanging around in the room with them. So when Gru took the opportunity to snag a kiss from Lucy, it seemed like one of his girls had enough.

"You two need to stop it!"

The couple blinked, both being pulled from their little fluffy session to see Edith with her arms crossed. She and the other girls had been doing random things, but paused as the middle child spoke up.

"What..?" Gru was a bit surprised.

"All that lovey stuff. It's gross!"

Lucy glanced to Gru, then back to the girls. Agnes looked up from her coloring book while Margo did the same from her phone. Letting out a chuckle Gru found the perfect moment to joke about this. "Oh you mean this?" He leaned over to Lucy again, nudging his face on hers and kissing her chin. She couldn't help but laugh from the display of affection.

"Yes that!" Edith groaned, pulling her hat further down. Margo simply rolled her eyes, while Agnes seemed thrilled.

"They are in love!" The youngest argued.

Edith frowned. "I don't wanna see it."

"Den you better look away!" Gru slipped his other hand around Lucy's waist, now hugging her close. However when his fingers prodded her side; he wasn't expecting her to squirm and give a very loud giggle.

Lucy covered her mouth, as if the act of that would make the moment retreat back inside of her. Gru stared at her, the realization coming to his face as his finger once more pressed into her side. The motion caused her to jump in his grasp, the laughter coming from her addicting to his ears. "Gru stop!" She said between giggles, but not before her hands went to his and tried to pry him off.

"Oh I see! Someone's ticklish!" A new thing learned about her, Gru gave a sly grin. His eyes went to the girls on the floor, who was just as surprised as he was. "Gurls! I'll hold her, you all jump her!"

Without any pause the trio leapt from their spots and to Lucy's horror all jumped for the opportunity to start tickling the redhead. Gru held her, sure enough, laughing alongside his partner as the girls started prodding and tickling the defenseless Lucy. She was laughing so hard that the three girls joined in, the fun of the situation making it hard not to.

By the time they finished Lucy was red in the face from her laughter and a few tears were on her cheeks. Gru let her go afterwards, the girls now holding her in place as they were piled on top of the woman. "You're all despicable!"

The girls laughed. "We now know your weakness!" Margo chimed in, adjusting her glasses.

Lucy wiped away her tears before her hands jerked out and tried to tickle the little girls back. With screams they all jumped off the bed, running away in a hurry. Before she stood she caught her breath, looking to Gru. He was smiling so wide from the entertainment, so Lucy poked him in the chest. "I'll get you for that."

"Hey now, I was just an innocent bystander."

"Pfft, 'innocent'." She leaned over to give him a kiss.

Edith let out a very dramatic 'ewww' before Lucy jumped up. "Now it's time to fight back!" With her hands up like she was going to start some kung fu moves, she looked at the girls who were holding back some giggles. "Get ready!"

When she ran towards them they all scattered. Gru was left alone for a few minutes, chuckling as he heard his girls scream and laugh- with the occasional sound of Lucy trying to grab hold of them. Before he knew it Agnes came rushing in, jumping up on the couch with him. Huffing from running around the house and a wide smile on her lips she looked to Gru.

"Don't let her get me!"

Gru chuckled. "What about me?"

With a shocked stare Agnes was surprised as Gru started to tickle her sides. Roaring with laughter the girl managed to squirm away and rush off. Joining in, Gru pushed off the couch to chase after her and join Lucy in the hunt.
