Just a little fun ^_^
Pairing: Rose & Emmett
xxxxxxxxxx
"Em, I'm home!"
My shoes are kicked off, my keys are placed by the door, my hair is taken down... and as I walk through the house, I notice that it's completely silent.
Where are the kids?
"Em?"
I reach the living room and he's sitting casually on the couch, seemingly out of breath. His clothes are wrinkled. He's covered in sweat.
"Emmett... what's going on?"
"Nothin', Rosie."
"Em, where are the kids?"
"Huh?"
"You heard me."
"Er, they're... in... bed."
"Mommy!"
Two pairs of little arms are wrapped around my legs. I hold my children tightly and kiss their heads, noticing that their bodies are streaked with various colors. Markers. Emmett is now trying to sneak out of the room.
"In bed, huh?"
"Babe, I don't know what happened—oh... crap."
Following his gaze, I immediately regret letting him watch the kids while I had a girl's night.
"Emmett, why is our dog covered in makeup and... barbecue sauce?"
Ali decides to answer for him. "Daddy said we could do what we want so he could watch his shows."
Her little face is bright, full of happiness. A big smile graces her face after she unknowingly digs her daddy a fresh grave.
I smile back. "He did? How fun! Alrighty, you guys go up to your room and I'll be there in a minute."
As they scamper off, I notice that their feet are caked in mud.
"Emmett, what the hell? Your shows? What the fuck were you watching? Porn? Is that why you were sweaty?"
He's cradling the remote in his hands, eyes terrified as I stalk toward him. "Give me the remote, Emmett."
"Just... calm down—"
"Now." My tone is venomous and he knows I'm not to be fucked with right now.
The remote is in my hands and the TV is now on. I look at him with a raised brow. "Yo Gabba Gabba?"
"DJ Lance is the shit... and the music is fun." He shrugs and looks down, digging his toes into the carpet.
I smile.
This man... this big, ridiculous, childish man. My life would be so dull without him.
"Since you smiled, does that mean I'm off the hook?"
"Nice try. You've got three bodies to bathe."
He smacks my ass as I walk away.
Just another Friday.
