I managed something again! I hope this is okay, since I have a headache and I feel like my brain is completely drained. Anyway I hope you enjoy it!
"You need to stop spoiling her! ", she declares in a stern voice, arms crossing dramatically over her chest for good measure.
"I'm not spoiling her and even if I were, I'm not saying I am, but what would be so bad about that?" , he tries to defend himself, his hand holding yet another new stuffed toy he bought for his daughter, letting it dance in front of the clear blue eyes of the baby in his hold. Chubby arms lift to grab the toy, the movements uncoordinated, just random wriggles of her body, but she manages to grasp one foot of the oddly colored sheep, pulling it out of her father's grasp and into her mouth.
Her lips purse and she takes a deep breath, before she tells him "Why don't you ask me again, when she becomes an egocentric little brat. I'll make sure you have a talk with Snow in the next few days."
But Robin keeps trying, noting "I just love to see her so happy! And I do remember her mother being spoiled by me as well and you haven't become egocentric yet. I'm sorry, but I just can't resist her! Those dimples are addictive."
She lets out a chuckle. "Getting played by your own genetics, huh Locksley?" A smug smile is being send her way, when he tells her "Don't act as if you don't know the pull, love. You were spoiling Roland just as much when we were in your castle!" , still not letting go of his defensive state. The comment seems to defeat her next argument, so she keeps her lips shut, throwing her hands in the air and announcing "Fine, I'll let you have this, but only if you promise you will stop…" , a sad scowl appears on his face, "or reduce spoiling her when it's completely necessary."
Robin nods happily, leaning down to press a quick kiss to her lips, before resuming playing with his daughter. The woman places a hand on the baby's red curls, locking her eyes with her daughter and telling her matter-of-factly "You're a real daddy's girl, aren't you my sweet Ivy?" owning a giggle from the young girl.
She turns to leave the room, glaring at Robin when she warns him "If we ever have to play the good cop/bad cop game, you'll be in trouble!" and makes her exit.
Thanks for reading and please review :)
