Chapter 6: Bonding
Kowalski went up to his sister, who was feeding Victor, or we shall now call him Blowhole.
Blowhole was eating, or more like drinking, his milk.
"I see you keep him on a regular diet of milk."
Crystal looked at him before turning back to her son.
"He's six months old Kowalski. And of course he's gonna be on a milk diet. Dolphins have to be on a milk diet for two years."
Kowalski frowned.
"I know that. You're not the only smart one of the family you know."
She smiled.
"I know, but I love irritating you."
Kowalski tickled Blowhole under his chin.
The little dolphin giggled, milk dripping onto his bib.
He chuckled.
At least he actually gets to be an uncle for the time being, even though Blowhole won't remember it.
"Would you like to feed Victor?" Crystal asked him.
He looked at her.
"Really?"
She nodded, handing him the bottle. Blowhole looked at him with big eyes, but continued to drink the milk. Kowalski could see that the little dolphin was studying him, whether to trust him or not.
"Don't worry Victor. I'm not going to hurt you." He told him. It felt weird to call his enemy by his first name.
Blowhole continued to drink his milk. He took a mouthful of milk and pulled back, then spit it all over Kowalski. He giggled, clapping his flippers.
Kowalski frowned, milk dripping down his feathers.
Crystal started laughing.
"That's adorable," she chuckled.
"It's not funny!" he snapped.
"Yes it is."
"No it's not,"
"Is,"
"Not,"
"Is,"
"Not,"
"Is,"
"Not! Not! Not! Not! Not!" Kowalski replied.
Crystal laughed, tossing him a towel.
"Here, get yourself clean up, your dripping milk on the floor." She told him, taking a washcloth and washing her son's face.
Blowhole giggled at the attention his mother was giving him. He lifted his flippers up. A sign saying he wanted to be picked up. Crystal lifted her son out of the highchair. He wrapped his flippers around her neck, rubbing his head against her. Kowalski smiled at his sister and adoptive nephew.
Crystal smiled at him.
"Would you like to spend time with your nephew?"
Kowalski looked at her in shock.
"A-are you serious?" he asked.
She nodded, handing Blowhole to him.
Kowalski held him, cradling his little nephew.
Blowhole looked at him. He smiled.
"Now I would advise you give Victor a bath. He's going to really sticky from that milk." Crystal told her little brother.
Kowalski nodded and started to waddle towards the bathroom.
Blowhole nuzzled his chest.
Kowalski sat him on the bathroom floor. The little dolphin picked up a rubber duck and banged it on the floor, laughing.
Kowalski smiled as he filled the tub up, pouring in the bubble bath. Blowhole rolled onto his back, sucking on the rubber duck. He had to admit, Blowhole did look cute as a baby as it was good to spend time with him, much to Skipper's consent.
Kowalski shut the water off and touched it with his elbow.
"There not to hot or too cold. Come on Blowhole. Time to get you cleaned up."
The genius penguin picked up his enemy and placed him in the bubble bath. Bath toys were floating in the tub. A rubber duck, a rubber squid, a purple rocket, a Barbie doll, and a teething ring were floating in the water.
Blowhole immediately started playing with the rubber duck.
"Ducky." He smiled.
Kowalski took a hold of him and started rubbing the soap on him. Blowhole giggled. The little dolphin had started splashing the water. Kowalski dodged the water that was being aimed at him.
"No, no, bad baby dolphin." Kowalski giggled, finishing cleaning him off.
Blowhole giggled and splashed more water on him. Kowalski sighed and picked the little dolphin up and sat him on the ground, drying him off with a big fluffy blue towel. Blowhole clinged onto the towel after Kowalski was finished drying him off. The little dolphin yawned and started to snuggle with it. Kowalski chuckled.
"I used to like snuggling with the biggest fluffiest towel I could find too, when I was little." Kowalski told him.
Blowhole looked at him and smiled. He yawned again and started to doze off.
"Looks like it's time for your nap." The tall penguin answered, picking up the dozing little dolphin.
He walked into the dolphin's room and sat him in the crib. Blowhole rolled onto his side, as Kowalski gently pulled the towel away from him and covered him with the baby blanket. He placed the pacifier that was on the dresser in his nephew's mouth. A smile formed on the little dolphin's face as he slept happily with the pacifier in his mouth.
Kowalski smiled as he shut the door. Maybe bonding with Blowhole wasn't as bad as he thought.
