Chapter 5: Baby's First Night

By Margueritediamond



Sorry but once again it took a long time. But the story needed a makeover. All except the chapters you've all ready read were revamped. And Sorry but I do have to thank Becca. For some reason I have my best ideas around her. And for those who like sap sorry but it's not a sappy ending any more. Of course you never know.

That night after a lot of talking, with Ronnie running circles around everyone.

Roxton was the only one awake now Marguerite went to her room early to fix everything for Ronnie to sleep. She had abducted a pillow and blanket to make a bed for Ronnie.

She already treated that thing like a child. Talk about blind love.

It was about midnight but he wasn't tired. He didn't know why. He just couldn't go to sleep. Everyone else was in bed, so he just walked around the treehouse checking each room every so often. Marguerite actually got Ronnie to sleep before 8 o' clock. That surprised him.

Screeches and a scream from Marguerite's room shatter the tranquillity of the treehouse. Then quickly reside to only quiet hurried whispers in the room.

He went to investigate.

He walks into her room to se her sitting up in bed apparently scolding the tiny thing.

"What happened?"

"Oh…uh, hi Roxton, he tried to crawl into bed with me."

"What?"

"He tried to crawl into bed with me."

"Oh…Doesn't seem like a bad idea to me."

"Are you sure you could survive?" she said teasingly, standing up to face him.

"I'm a hunter I like danger, remember." He reached behind her back to pull her close. But a growling sound behind her made him jerk his hand back just in time to avoid the tiny jaws of Ronnie.

"You should be more careful Lord Roxton"

"What happened?" asked Malone rubbing his eyes in the doorway, the others standing behind him.

"A certain raptor tried to curl up to my feet."

"That's all I'm going back to bed," mumbled Malone as he began to walk back to his room.

"So we woke up because you got cold feet," said Challenger semi-annoyed. Then his expression changed to one of intrigue. "Of course it makes sense. After all Ronnie is a cold-blooded creature. He just wanted a source of heat."

"Maybe you could take a chance to study him closer. He can sleep in your bed then you can learn about dinosaur sleeping habits."

"Oh, I don't think so Marguerite. Ronnie, after all, is yours." With that said Challenger followed Malone's example and returned to his room

"It was worth a try."

"Face it Marguerite your stuck with it," said Veronica

"Don't call Ronnie it"

"I'm going to bed, it's the middle of the night and if Ronnie wakes me up or causes me to wake up…"

"You hurt him and you won't be able to wake up"

"Just keep him away from me" Veronica walks back to her room.

"Roxton, Do you know where the hot water bottle is?"

"The kitchen"

"Would mind getting it while I heat some water?"

"Why?"

"So Ronnie doesn't try to curl up to me"

"Oh, I guess so, I was up anyway"

"You were?"

"Couldn't sleep"

They walk to the kitchen to prepare a hot water bottle.

Ronnie follows behind.
