Elektra and Matt's apartment
Matt smiled as he slid off his tan blazer after he walked into the apartment. Work had been hectic since the auditors had been checking in on them making sure that Froggy and Matt had been doing their job. Elektra walked out of the training room her hands still wrapped in the black tape and sweat beading on her forehead as she whispered "Shhh…Lily is still sleeping"
Elektra had become accustom to the "mother" life as Abby had called it. She was a better mother than she thought she could be and Lily was become a beautiful two year old, talking so she could talk to Matt, walking and even doing really simple math. Lily was so smart she could say what were 1+1 and 2+2 and other math equations like that. Elektra read to her at night, so far her favorite story was Green egg's and Ham. But what was most impressive Lily would imitate her Mother as she trained in the afternoons she would punch and kick alone with Elektra as if it was second nature to her. Matt nodded and placed his leather suitcase on the floor then walked over and hugged the sweaty Elektra and tossed his blazer on the coat rack. Just out of ear shot Lily sat up in her bed "Mommy" she cried out
Matt smiled "she's calling for you"
Elektra sighed "I thought I could get a few more hours of training in"
"Why do you still do that, no one is going to harm us again" Matt followed
"Just in case" Elektra smiled as she opened door to Lily's room
"Momma" Lily smiled her fathers smiled
"Hey Lil" she smiled as she picked her up and placed her gently on the floor
Matt smiled as he listened to Lily talk to him "Daddy"
"Hey baby girl" he crouched down to her eye level "how is my little fighter doing?"
"Good daddy" she smiled
Matt gathered Lily into his arms careful not to drop her or run into anything in front of him. They walked out into the living room and sat on the couch "so what shall we do today Lily? Fight monsters? Be swash buckling pirates? Or crazy dinosaurs?" he asked.
Lily and Matt had this game where they would pretend to be something or another for fun it was their, what they called "Secret game" because they wouldn't tell Elektra about it. "None daddy I want to be a rock star like Abby is" she laughed
"Really don't you want to be a lawyer like me" he smiled as she rolled down onto the couch and off Matt's lap
"No daddy, lawyer is boring" she jumped off the couch and pretended to play a guitar
Matt did the same, head banging his head to an imaginary beat and playing his guitar. Elektra leaned on the wall watching them "you guys are crazy" she giggled.
It was moments like this where she loved that Matt was her father. He was the best father, he would teacher he new things, play the "secret game" and spoil her so much. Lily was truly Daddy's little girl. Both Matt and Lily played their game till dinner. Elektra made spaghetti since she had limited cooking skills but she was trying, she had made lemon chicken then other nice before she almost set the apartment on fire after leaving it in for to long. "Common guys food it done" she called out
"Mommy some is here" she called back
"What Lily?" Elektra said confused that only Matt, Lily and herself where in the apartment
Silence engulfed the apartment, it became more and more tense and the air seemed to become thinker and thicker as she neared the living room. When she rounded the corner she found Matt roaring "yes some is here Lily. It's the tickle monster" Matt jumps to Lily tickling her making Lily cry out in laughter. Elektra let out the breath she had been holding and loosened her grip on the shape knife she had been holding just in case. Matt smiled and picked up Lily, ran to the table and set her down on a chair "Monster Matt says you must eat to become strong enough to defeat me" he road laughing and sat down in her seat.
Elektra walked slowly to the kitchen setting the food on the table "mm spaghetti" Elektra put some on Lily's small plate
Lily looked over at her father and made a discussed face. Matt just smiled and shoved so much into his mouth that he looked like a chipmunk that eat too much. They all laughed at him and Lily did the same to imitate her dad. It was a great time for the family.
Abby, Josh and Nikkie's apartment
Nikkie sat on the couch her knees to her chest as she watched the news silently. Thoughts of her mom passed in her head as she closed her eyes and tears escaped her slowly and silently. The cloud that hung over the apartment when Josh's father had died seemed to become bigger and worse when Nikkie found out. Abby and Josh entered the apartment as quiet as they could "hey Nikkie" Abby walked over to the couch
Nikkie hardly responded till she sat beside her "hey" she mumbled
Josh watched as he started to cook something for supper since it was his night to cook. Abby leaned on her friends shoulder "Nikkie…I don't know what to say"
"Then don't" Nikkie said and she dropped her feet onto the ground and rested her head onto of Abby's head. The three sat in silence, the only sound was Josh attempting to make food for them. After almost lighting the apartment on fire Josh walked out with two plates full of the only thing he could make other than macaroni and cheese, spaghetti. Nikkie set her plate on the coffee table and ate a few bites. It had only been a week after she had found out her mother had died of a heroin overdose, she didn't even know he mom did that stuff. A sigh escaped her as she turned her attention back to the T.V. Mrs. Andréa Shine's funeral was that exact same day and it had been the hardest thing Nikkie had ever had to do other than watching her father be buried too. Abby set her head back on Nikkie's shoulder and watched on as Josh ate silently.
After collecting the dishes Josh wrote down a note for the two girls
"Going out for a while I need to see a man about a horse…joking I'm going to see a woman about a horse. I don't know when I'll be back but I'll be back.
Love Josh xoxo'
And with that he grabbed his coat and walked out of the apartment leaving the two with there stomachs full of over cooked spaghetti.
