The sun shone into the garden and the birds were chirping as Dom pushed Sam back and forth in her Small baby swing, her face glowing with excitement.
Ange was sat in the garden on a sun lounger watching her kids playing ,their laughs filled her with so much joy , she couldn't be happier. Feeling secure that she could trust Dom to take care of his baby sister, Ange allowed herself to lay back and relax.
" Don't get those trousers mucky Dom , grass stains are a pain to get out and your mother won't be too happy if you walk mud into her carpets either!" Fletch called across the garden looking up from his sun flowers momentarily.
Dom had managed to get Sam out her swing himself and sat her on the grass. He sat down with her and played with the childrens garden toys helping' fletch with his gardening. Sam squealed with delight watching Dom, her deep,blue eyes followed him around the garden ; she would giggle and cheer every time he planted a seed. Doms very own cheerleader.
Dom smiled and went over to Sam and managed to lift her up and carry her over to where they were planting stuff and he got her involved too by helping her to plant her own seeds. "Look daddy .. sam can plant seeds too!" he squealed and he knew that sam should not eat the seeds so made sure she didn't.
Six month old Sam wasn't really much help, she sat upright on the floor clapping her hands and giggling. There were no ends to her happiness when she was with her elder brother.
Fletch smiled and watched them. He loved that they had such a great bond. As he was watching them he saw ange he had dozed off on the lounger.. He smirked "Dom.. Would you like to do me a favour" he asked, sounding super suspicious .
Excitement exploded within him. He loved to help and feel as if he was making things easier for people. "Yeah!" he squealed, happily jumping up and down.
Fletch smiled and went over to the small paddling pool he had put up earlier for the kids that was still filling up with water and Dom had gone to the shop with fletch that morning and picked out a water pistol. He picked it up and filled it up "here dom… mummy looks a bit hot .. a cool down with water will help" he grinned and gave dom the water gun.
Dom stopped thoughtfully, he stuck his tongue out as he pondered why on earth Fletch would want him to do such a thing. He shook his head " No daddy, i don't think mummy would like that very much."
"She will…" he said offering the pistol again, he and ange had such a banter war between them but fletch would mostly get Dom to do his part
" hm. Okay then Daddy but only if you pinky promise that it's what Mummy would like," he agreed, holding out his pinky finger.
Fletch smiled and shook his pinky finger with his son. "Go on then," he said, giving him the pistol.
Dom slowly crept over to the sunbed where Ange lay sleeping. He held up the green pistol and squirted water in Anges face. Sam, who was sitting watching from afar let out the happiest giggle of amusement having witnessed the ' assasination of Angel Godard'.
Ange immediately sat up, The look of terror on her face. "Dom!. What did you do that for!?" she said wiping the dripping water off her face. Dom's face dropped, he glanced down at the floor innocently, " Daddy said you would like it, he pinky promised," he sighed.
Her face turned from fury to normal seeing as it wasn't him that did it.. It was fletch. He looked fletch not amused at all "well then… daddy isn't good at promises you will need to teach him how to keep them." Dom nodded disappointed in Fletch and went back to Sam and picked her up and took her into his plastic, yellow wendy house.
Fletch smirked cheekily , "Pay ya back tonight," Ange just chuckled, "dream on sunshine, we are watching mamma mia one and two tonight now ," she smiled, although she could definitely recite both films word for word.
Dom loved to role play with his sister and pretend that she was his baby ..well she basically was his baby. He sat on the floor of the house with sam and he 'played' snap with the card set he had in there where sam was just sat there sucking on the corner of one of the cards smiling watching Dom.
" Dom! Sam! Where are you?" Ange called out, she loved nothing more than a game of hide and seek with her two children. Although she always knew where they were, she would always pretend to look around for a while.
"Shhhhh " dom ducked his head down so he couldn't be seen from the window. He loved when Ange started a game of hide and seek out of nowhere. Confusion etched across Sam's face , she was unsure as to why they had to be quiet all of a sudden - still too young to understand how to play a game.
"Fleeetchhhh i can't find them … where are they? " Ange called, sounding absolutely clueless of where the kids were.
"Hm, i'm not too sure , have you checked underneath the bench?" he suggested.
"No … i will go look there" she said and went and looked under the bench.
"nope not under there .. oh … I think I heard something?" she walked over to where she could hear little voices. Sam- who was still clueless as to what was going on- erupted into a loud giggling fit.
Ange giggled and opened up the little house door "ahh i found you!" she smiled and lifted sam up tickling her side. Uncontrollable laughter enshrouded the Godard family, these were the moments they would treasure forever.
