First day of School!
Running Away – Hoobastank
There was a crash, followed by a series of thunks on the stairwell that had both of us turning our heads from the TV to see Nate dragging his t-ball bag behind him down the stairs. I glanced at Castle to see him looking as puzzled as I was. "Hey Nate whatcha doing?" he asked lifting my legs off his lap so that he could intercept the five year.
"Running away." Nate's face was all screwed up in his world famous pout as he kept tugging the bag down the stairs, the thunking telling me that he hadn't taken the t-ball gear out first.
I got a puzzled look from Castle, before he turned back to the five year old. "And why are you running away?" he asked patiently.
"Because you guys don't love me," he yells when he gets to the bottom of the stairs making his way to the front door, leaving me to dart across the loft to sit myself in front of the door.
Folding my legs under me I took in my little boy, "And what makes you think that?"
"Because you're making me go to school all the time this year!" He throws his hands up in the air; he is so Martha's grandson it's ridiculous at times.
Castle is trying hard not the laugh behind him, before he scoops him up, spinning him around before settling down next to me against the door with the little boy in his lap. "Buddy we're only making you go to school because we love you."
"Daddy and I just want to learn everything you can because you're smart and to make lots of friends," I tug on his pajama shirt.
He turns his head from his father's neck and looks at me, "I'm smart?"
"Really, really smart." I promise him brushing his Castle waves out of his eyes.
He looks up at this dad, "Can I have my friends over to play?"
Rick chuckles, "Yeah, you can have your friends over to play all the time."
Nate suddenly drooped against his father, his exhaustion, excitement, and the hour catching up with him. "Promise I'll have fun."
Standing up I lifted the forty-pound boy off his Dad, "Even more fun than pre-school, I promise. Now back to bed with you big boy. You have a big day tomorrow."
"Ok," He sighed against my chest, "Daddy, Captain."
"What about him?" his Dad asked getting up off the floor making a face as his back popped.
"Bag," Nate's eyelids fluttered closed as I carried him up the stairs back to his baseball themed room.
"Got it." He winked at me grabbing the bag and following us up the stairs.
Settling Nate back in his bed, clutching his teddy bear. "Mommy take me to school tomorrow?"
"Yeah Bud I'll take you to school tomorrow before I go to work." I pressed a kiss to his forehead.
"Daddy too," he asked not even lasting long enough to hear the answer so we both slip from the room.
Oh little Nathan Castle, warms my he warm yours?
