To RandomFanAuthor- hello again! ^_^ The Solangelo will be continued on another part, but not yet! ^_^ Reyoisa is not happening yet, but I have some written, don't panic! Have some Leoisa instead- something small that's been sitting in my folders for ages, I wasn't sure where to put it! Not 100% sure on it, apologies in advance! They are about twenty-one/twenty-two here if I'm following my old timeline, still working out my numbers :P
***UPDATE*** Also to RandomFanAuthor- sorry about the double posting of this one! I clicked the wrong document to upload, fixed it now! Thanks for the two reviews though! ^_^ I wouldn't have noticed otherwise!
Leo hummed to himself, eyes fixated on her profile. A slight knit to her eyebrow gave away her awareness of him, but Louisa was more set on finding something to watch. Leo continued to hum, one low tone, moving his hand slowly towards her face, one finger outstretched.
"Do it 'n' ya lose that hand."
"Deal." And he poked her cheek. Quicker than he could blink, she had his hand trapped and twisted, almost pointing at himself. Leo whimpered and she made him poke himself in the forehead.
"What are you?"
"An idiot?"
"With confidence."
"Your idiot."
"Too much confidence. I disapprove."
"You disapprove of everything." She released his hand with a smirk, returning to swapping through the channels. Leo watched the colours flick and images blur together on the screen, until his eyes became unfocused altogether. "Lou, I'm bored." She hummed in acknowledgement, part agreement, tossing the remote to one side. "I was thinking-"
"Oh gods."
"-of some more names." He continued, flicking her sharply in the leg. She glanced over, feigning boredom. She loved his name suggestions really. Deep down. He had yet to have a sensible suggestion. "McShizzle Junior." No, she shook her head. "Apprentice Repair Boy. Or Girl. Or are we not supposed to assign genders now?"
"I think that's up to them, maybe they'll decide at some point."
"Apprentice Repair McShizzle."
"Not on your life."
"Stop disapproving!"
"Disapprove."
"Ugh, you're annoying."
"Comin' from you?"
"Yes. Let me pick a name!" He wailed. Louisa smiled, unobligingly, tapping him on the head. She made to stand. He, having sat sideways on the sofa, fell forward and cocooned his arms around her middle, pulling her back down. "Nope!" He grinned slyly, wiggling closer and resting his head on her shoulder. "Aaaand where do you think you're going?"
"I need a wee."
"No you don't."
"Yes I do, I've got a tiny human on my bladder." She messed his hair, running wild curls between her thumb and finger. "This is your fault."
"I'm not sorry."
"I know ya ain't." She smiled. Leo moved again, laying his head in her lap to press his ear to curve of her stomach. She continued to play with his hair. "Ain't gonna hear much, Valdez." She laughed. Leo mumbled in Spanish, more to himself than her.
"Wait, they can hear us, right?"
"Think so."
"Aw, yes." He hugged her tighter, beaming broadly. "I'm gonna be the best papi," he promised the bump, "and we're going to blow up all kinds of things!" Louisa cleared her throat. "With your mama, of course." He added, smiling at her approving nod. "Can't leave Mama out of explosions, she was practically born to destroy. Oooh, I wonder if they'll be like you or me. Hey, be a fire baby. That's an ord- hey!" He looked up at her, grinning. "Did you feel that?"
"Uh, yeah, kinda came from inside me." Louisa laughed at his incredulous look, his hand warm on her stomach, Bubba repeatedly kicking his palm. She laughed more when he squealed with protest when the kicks stopped, patting his head reassuringly. "Two more months, Valdez."
"Too long! Hurry up in there, fire baby!"
"Um, no, they're a water baby!" He made to protest and she clamped a hand over his mouth. "I am doin' all the hard work so they will be a water baby!"
"But I want a fire baby!" He said, voice muffled behind her fingers. At her glower, the corners of his eyes creased with a smile. "Water baby might be OK."
"Might?"
"Yeah."
"Remind me why I'm nice ta ya."
"Because I'm your favourite person ever." He grinned, shifting to sit back up. She shook her head, but kissed his nose. "Now, I'm thinking Edwardo." Laughter bubbled forth and she playfully smacked him in the chest.
"Fuck off are ya! Fuckin' Edwardo." She pressed her fingers into his upper arms, prying him away. He complained wordlessly and she kissed his forehead. "I really need a wee now, Valdez." He pouted. "Like, I'm bustin'."
"And not a move, which is a shame to see."
"Shut ya face." She stood, but he grabbed her hand, tapping his finger on his lips. Louisa cast her eyes heavenward but gave in, kissing him lightly, laughing softly at his stupid, rather pleased grin. "I'm goin' now."
"Think of me!"
