Olivia Belle Pendragon's little golden head titled to one side as she watched her father standing in front of the telly. She offered her father a gummy watery smile as he flicked on the TV.
"OAHHH," Olivia gushed at her father. Arthur blew his baby girl as kiss as he flexed his muscular shoulders.
"I don't care if she's out with the girls. Gawain is at his mother's. Leon's picking patterns for wallpaper. Merlin is hacking government files. I can entertain myself," Arthur grumbled.
Olivia stuck out her small pink lips in confusion.
"I'm here with my best girls, Princes and Bells. The King of Pop… Michael Jackson. "Are you ready, Princess?" Princess removed her mouth from Gwen's favorite throw pillow. She gave Arthur a curious look and yawned. Arthur frowned at her goofy teeth. "I'll take the as a yes."
"Bells," Arthur cajoled excitedly.
Belle banged her hands against her plastic tray as she bounced up in down in her seat.
"Let's dance."
Arthur spun his left hand as he twisted his hips. He tightly clutched the controller. He twisted his lips as he flicked through the choices. He settled on "Beat it."
He tapped his tongue to the beat as he bent his knees and swayed towards the music. His elbows popped as he twisted his hips. His pelvis moved furiously to the beat. Bells giggles filled the room as she bounced in time with the music. Her tiny fingers opening and closing as she danced with her Daddy.
"Just beat it. Just beat it. They said don't you come around here."
Arthur flung his hands from his chest. He wished for a pair of black loafs. He swished and swashed around the den. Sweat beaded on his forehead. His arms ached.
Arthur bowed to the screen. His head flew around sharply when Bell shriek in distress. Big fat tears covered her little green eyes. Her mouth puckered. "What's wrong, precious?"
Arthur gathered the baby into his arms. "Are you sad, poppet?" Bell rested her head on her father's wide shoulder. Arthur rubbed her back until her cries subsided. He noticed her tiny fingers touching the controlled.
"Do you want to dance?"
Arthur rushed to Bells' room. Gently, he dropped her into her cage. "Where is it?'
He rushed to her closet and threw a few items out. "I got it, Bells."
Bell strapped to her father's chest in Snugli; waved her arms and hands wildly as Arthur wriggled his bottom.
"Are you ready for Billie Jean?"
