"But I would like to" Imp said as he followed his Tad around the bedroom watching him get ready "Is anyone else going?"
"Just me, Sam and Maisey" Ianto said, then turned to look at him, sighing as he saw that Imp was serious about this. "Well … I guess so."
"YES!" he punched the air, taking off as Ianto sighed and wandered down to see if another child was waiting to complain as well. He didn't blame them, Maisey was getting some special treatment but they needed to understand that this was going to be a big deal for her. So many people, so much bluster and things have to go right. She has to behave. Treats were going to have to happen for this.
He was not surprised to find Maisey entering the main lobby with her hand firmly clasped in Imp's as she agreed he could come. Of course he could. She liked him. A lot. Ianto drove while Sam and Angel talked excitedly, this also her first real shopping trip with Ianto. She knew it would be good.
They stopped for something to eat first, then onto his favourite stores, the staff rushing to please the man they all knew was soooo sweet. Imp was a hit, his polite requests listened to as he asked for the waist thingy as well. Soon he stood happily in a black suit with a bright yellow tie over a white shirt, the tie pin a little daisy. Ianto had found them and was well pleased, ordering them for all the boys.
Angel was engrossed in the little pins for the hairpieces, Ianto explaining that some with little diamonds could help keep her hair curled around her crown as he added some packets, then she asked about longer hair.
"You want longer hair?"
"I want princess hair Taddy" she nodded, looking over at her mother who had appeared as agreed to meet them for this shopping trip.
"Well … We can ask the other Angel. Black Angel" Ianto said, knowing this name was neither rude or derogatory as their favourite hairdresser called herself that all the time "She can add some extensions for a special 'do maybe."
"Oh yes please" she gushed, her hands clapping excitedly like a child, Ianto lovingly stroking her cheek as he whispered that she was a princess already.
"Oh Taddy, I am so excited!" she gushed.
"You are excited?" Imp said suddenly "I want to know what cake we are getting!"
"Oh. He won't tell me" she sighed "It's a surprise."
"Awesome" Imp said as he took her hand "Don't worry big sister dear, it will be epic."
"Sister" she whispered with surprise "I always wanted to be a big sister."
"Well … welcome to the madness" Imp laughed as Ianto offered his arm to Sam's mother and they headed to the next store.
