Chapter 3: cool guys ride
It was a sunny Saturday morning when Danny's alarm clock woke him up. He stretched his armto turn it off, not wanting to wake up Delinda who was sleeping next to him. He steped quietly out of the room and headed downstairs. He took a bowl from the counter and placed some cereal inside it, the proceded to fill it with milk. He was about to start eating when he heard noises next to him. Simba; Jack's little labrador was waiting to be fed. He stood up and walked to the yard to get the dog's food
"here" the marine put the plate infront of the dog, next to him and patted his head with one hand
"daddy?" a small voice said
"hey scout" Danny walked towards his 3 and so year old and the boy extended his arms for his father to pick him
"here" he sat him on hid highchair "you hungry?"
Jack nodded "Lucky charms!" he said excitedly and Danny cuckled "coming right up"
"daddy?" the boy asked as Danny put a bowl next to him and filled with Lucky Charms
"yeah?" he sat on a stool next to his son
"are we going on trip?" he asked inocently
Danny breathed heavily "why do you ask?"
"cause there's a bag outside your room" Jack told him
Crap! Now how was he supoused to explain tha?t.
"so are we?" Jack repeated anxiously
"well, not exactly scout" Danny started the goodbye speech he had been avoiding all this time "I…"
"you what daddy?" Jack was now getting impacient
"I have to go somewhere but you and mummy have to stay here" the marine ran his hand trough his hair
"and Jen?" the boy asked "is she going with you?"
"no she's staying here with you guys" Danny locked his eyes with Jack's
"when willl you come back daddy?" the 3 year old asked sadly
"I don't really know bud" Danny said and looked down to his breakfast this was even harder than he believe it would be
"daddy?" Jack looked down at his father he couldn't see his face burried in his hands
"come on bud" Danny said and cleaned his face from the tears "let's go for a ride"
Danny picked Jack up from the high chair and made his way upstairs
"let's put some clothes on kay?" Danny placed the boy on the bed when they reached the room
"but I'm dressed daddy!" Jack complained wacthing his father take a pair of jeans and a sweatshirt from the dresser
"I know, but we can't go out in our pijamas can we?" Danny inquiered and Jack groaned "why not?"
"cause we are cool dudes!" Danny said launching himself to Jack and tickling him
"daddy stop it!" Jack complained laughig "stop!"
"will you get dress?" the marine aske sweetly as he sat next to his son on the bed
"yes sir" Jack nodded
"arms up!" Danny demanded. The little boy raised his arms and Danny helped his son put on the sweatshirt and the proceded to the jeans
"there, ready" the marine said proudly once they were done "now, I'll go get dressed, but you have to be really quiet because we don't want ot wake mummy up" Danny told Jack and the two of them headed to the main room quietly. Danny got dressed in less than a minute while Jack watched him from the door
"let's go" Danny whispered and Jack followed him downstairs
"daddy?" Jack asked again when Danny was about go get into the pilot's seat
"yeah?" the marine asked turning his head and palicing the keys on the keyhole
"why isn't mummy coming with us?"
"because I want to go out with you, not mummy" Danny told him and the boy smiled widely "cool!" he mutered and his father cuckled.
