The next morning Skwirely was up and giggling at Spongebob as Wally slowly turned over.
"It's 5:05 in the morning Skillet don't you ever sleep in on the weekdays?" Wally asked looking at his watch as Skwirely looked over at him still laughing.
"It's called an alarm clock dad maybe you should invest in one, that way your awake when I am and we can bond" Skwirely said as Wally laughed from under his blankets and turned over.
"By the way do you own a Wii or any other gaming system for that matter?, this treehouse is like the 1980's no game system but TV's a plenty".
"No and I'm glad I don't because then it'd just be something else for you to annoy me with".
"Well my birthday's coming up and I want a Wii, if you can't handle that then get me a Nintendo DS something to keep me occupied besides TV" Skwirely said as Wally kicked the blankets off and stared angrily at her.
"You aren't going to give me a moments rest are you?, I mean why must you wake up at 5:00 every morning anyways?" Wally asked shuffling to the bathroom as Skwirely stood outside the door.
"You have years upon years upon years to make up for daddy, that's why I'm bothering you because you and I have got to come up with a solution to your deadbeat dadness" Skwirely said as Wally sighed angrily and opened the door.
"I left because I got scared plain and simple, now please let me get at least a little bit more sleep before I get you ready for school"
"You can sleep as long as you want deadbeat, I'm not stopping you from sleeping at all am I".
"Yea it's real easy to sleep with your hyena laugh every five minutes Skally, now pipe down and watch your cruddy cartoons while I get some sleep" Wally said as Skwirely once again giggled at Patrick as Wally sighed and Skwirely held a smile on her face.
"You really don't hear the word quiet much do you Squally?, You know meaning no sound at all coming from you".
"As soon as you can get my name right I'll start being quieter, but till then this hyena laugh as my friends call it is going to be all you hear.
Wally moaned as Skwirely laughed once again and he saw that sleep wasn't going to come easy.
"Fine if you must laugh like that go someplace else and laugh like that because I'm going to sleep for at least a half an hour more if it kills me" Wally said.
Skwirely got on her hands and knees ready to pounce as Wally smiled and closed his eyes thinking he won the fight.
"I think we should invest in a kitten daddy, and the reason that I think it is because I need a companion to talk to, somebody who understands my Skwirelyness" Skwirely said moving her body up and down getting ready to pounce on Wally's stomach.
"We are not getting a cat, a dog, a hamster, a rabbit, or any other animal with four legs, a tail, fur, and a collar" Wally said groggily.
Skwirely leapt into the air and landed on Wally's stomach as he jumped up in surprise to see her smiling down at him acting like a cat.
"I call that one the Skwirely pounce, mom knows it well seeing she's had it once, twice or maybe even a million times" Skwirely said barely able to keep her hyena laugh in anymore.
"Do that again Swilly and your going to be a very unhappy camper because you are this close to getting grounded" Wally said making the motions with his thumb and index finger.
"You wouldn't ground me if you knew what was good for you daddy, just as mom tried grounding me half a dozen times but I always seem to find my way out of situations like groundings" Skwirely said as Spongebob ended and she changed the channel to Camp Lazlo.
"Only a half an hour more and then you have to help me with my homework, and my ballet routine, then it's breakfast and I'm off to school" Skwirely said sipping a Coke as Wally looked at it and knew where Skwirely was getting her energy.'
"Enjoy those while you can because I'm not going to buy you anymore Skillet, let's see how you survive without your precious caffine to wake you and me up at 5:00 in the morning" Wally said as Skwirely held her Coke can close to her.
"If you cut me off from caffine I hope you can handle me in the morning, I went one day without caffine and all my friends and my mom knew to steer clear of me".
Wally's bedroom door slowly opened and Wendy walked in smiling at Wally who was trying to sleep.
"I think it's time for the Skwirely pounce my little Shelia, then we can go from there" Wendy said as Skwirely once again pounced on Wally and he angrily sat up as she smiled.
"Hey blame her not me, she said it was time for the Skwirely pounce and there's no arguing with the woman" Skwirely said as Wendy giggled at Wally.
"Listen you pepped up, laughing hyena, spoiled brat just because I'm your father doesn't give you the right to pounce on me whenever you like" Wally said as Wendy held Skwirely's ears like he was saying something extremely bad.
"Wallabee Gregory Beatles are you nuts?, you can't go around calling her whatever you like I mean how would you like it if she called you a deadbeat?" Wendy asked as Wally threw some clothes on and looked at her.
"She already has about five times now if you'll excuse me I have a stupid breakfast to make for a girl who won't appreciate it" Wally said as Skwirely followed not being talked like that by anyone.
"Ohhh goodie what do you want now brat more pouncing?, or are you going to talk my ear off about the reasons you deserve a cat?".
Skwirely took the stairs two at a time after Wally as they both reached the kitchen to find Rachel sipping coffee.
"Morning you two so Numbah 4 what has your boxers in a twist this morning?, has fatherhood finally decided to hit you head on?" Rachel asked as Wally angrily pulled out a bowl and the box of Lucky Charms as Skwirely stared at it.
"Bon appetite spoiled brat we're ahead of schedule, after breakfast it's off to your room to do your homework and practice ballet, after that I want you dressed and ready to be out the door for school" Wally said without taking a breath as Wendy stormed down the stairs after Wally.
"Wally I would like to see you upstairs now, Skwirely do as your father says and eat your breakfast we'll be but a minute" Wendy said as Wally and her stormed up the stairs.
"All right one you have no right to talk to her the way you do, she's used to getting her own way granted but you don't have to treat her like a piece of trash either".
"Wend ever since you two got here I've been yelled at, called a deadbeat, talked about getting a gaming system, talked about getting a cat, and last but not least have been pounced on twice thanks to our loving daughter" Wally said as Wendy could do nothing but stare at Wally.
"Were you expecting a happy homecoming after leaving us all alone Wally?, I mean come on your not exactly father of the year material yet" Wendy said as Wally looked into her eyes seeing the girl he fell in love with so many years ago.
"I know you like to think the love candle has burned out between us Wendy, but the truth is I couldn't face you when I left Australia for America, I just couldn't face the responsibility" Wally said as Wendy looked back at him knowing that Wally was telling the truth.
"You think I wasn't scared Wally?, my mum and dad kicked me out into the outback when I had Skwirely and we had nowhere to go" Wendy said hugging him as Wally kissed her and knew that he was going to have to apologize to Skwirely too.
"I know she seems like a brat most of the time Wally, but if you ever took the time to get to know her you'd see a little girl longing for your love beyond anything else".
"How did you two find me anyways?, I mean they don't have an Australian version of America's Most Wanted do they?"
Wendy and Wally laughed at his joke as Rachel walked up the stairs to give Wally a piece of her mind.
"Wally I think you and me need to have a serious talk about your parenting abilities, and I don't want any interruptions until I'm done talking" Rachel said as Wally nodded his head and stood there.
"Calling your daughter names is not the greatest thing to do when she's living here Wally, I mean all's she wants is a father to love her and you swoop down like a hawk yelling at her".
"You know Rachel your right and now I'm off to make things right with her, now if you'll excuse me I'm going to talk to my blue daughter who needs something to cheer her up".
"Well I don't know what I said but I said it, I have no idea how he got talk to your daughter from that but I guess some guys are just good to read between the lines" Rachel said as Wendy followed Wally to the kitchen hiding in the shadows.
"Hey Skwirely so let's chat about stuff, we can talk about anything you want even a baby kitten if you like, I mean I love the way they purr when their happy" Wally said as Skwirely looked up shocked that Wally got her name right.
"Whatever happened to Skilly, Skillet, Skally, Squally, or Swilly?, or have you just got so bored with calling me fake names that you learned my real one?" Skwirely asked glumly as Wally sat down next to her.
"Actually it's that your name is so long that you can't pronounce it right half the time, but the fact of the matter is your not a brat by any means, you're my daughter and I should start treating you like one" Wally said hugging Skwirely as she hesitated then hugged him back with tears in her eyes.
"I just wanted to make you happy like I did for mom, she's so happy that I'm her daughter but you seem to think that your life is over when you have a daughter" Skwirely said slowly letting go and looking at Wally.
"How about this I'll take you shopping after school just you and me, it'll give us some time to get to know each other and we can eat all the junk food we want" Wally said as Skwirely smiled having another thing in mind.
"Can we skip school and go shopping now instead?, because I have an English test that I totally didn't study for and I would like to shop instead of go to school" Skwirely said giving Wally the puppy dog eyes as Wendy laughed silently in the shadows.
"All right I guess you could skip school for just one day, and it's because of those baby brown puppy eyes your giving me because Kuki did the same thing when we dated and she wanted something".
Wendy couldn't stand it any more as she walked from the shadows laughing at the both of them as Skwirely scooped more Lucky Charms on her spoon and shoved it into her mouth.
"You really didn't mean that junk about making me go cold turkey with the caffine did you?, because I have to say if you did then you just better steer clear of me at 7:00 when I wake up to get ready for school".
"All right young lady you know the rules, if you stay home from school no phone privileges, no going outside after school, and no telling your friends that you can fake sick better than anybody else" Wendy said as Skwirely poured herself more Lucky Charms.
"But I'm not staying home sick, I'm going on a field trip with my loving and name remembering father mommy, so those rules shouldn't apply to me today, and besides I can fake sick better than anybody else I fooled you once or twice didn't I" Skwirely asked as Wendy kissed her cheek and sat down.
"All right if you two are going shopping then so am I, Skwirely needs new clothes desperately and that is what we're shopping for clothes and if she's good and doesn't complain two toys one from me and one from your father".
"Three toys and a licorice whip at the end of it all, you should know by now mom that I'm a master negotiator".
"All right two toys and two candy bars if your good my final offer, and don't even try throwing this offer away" Wendy said as Skwirely thought about it and knew what had to be done.
"All right two toys and two licorice whips, going once, going twice, sold to Skwirely Beatles for a bedazzled $1.00 bill" Skwirely said handing her mother a dazzling one dollar bill and got her coat as Wendy and Wally followed her.
" So where are we off to dad?, I mean what's the best mall you have around here?, I like to shop for the best clothes that is if I'm really clothes shopping which today I think not".
"Young lady you and I know darn well that your going to get a couple of outfits".
"Why do I need new clothes anyways?, I'm just going to rip the knees, cut up the cuffs, and then slice through the rest of the jeans or any other pants you get me" Skwirely said looking out the window as Wendy stared at her.
"Strike one Skwirely Beatles, you and I both know that your friends wear clothes that are decent, you wear clothes that would make Ozzy Osborne look good" Wendy said as Skwirely sighed angrily.
"Most of my friends parents wouldn't let them leave the house in cut up jeans, and shirts that barely hide their belly".
"Are you even dating yet young lady, because if not then your making a bad first impression believe me I know I've dated girl's like you before" Wally said as Skwirely was suddenly interested in the conversation.
"All right dad say I like this boy and he barely knows I'm alive, I've tried everything right down to dressing in clothes that make mom blush for him to like me what would you do?" Skwirely asked as Wendy looked back at her.
"This is about Jessie isn't it Skwirely?, I told you to stay away from him because he's a hood and you know it" Wendy said as Skwirely smiled guiltily.
"But he's also cute and bad you have to admit that's a lethal combination mom, cute and bad I bet that's why you liked dad he seems like he could be bad at one point in his life".
"Jessie Walters is off limits young lady, once you become a little older you'll thank me trust me about this sweetheart I'm doing it for your own good".
Skwirely's cell rang as she saw her friends number and quickly flipped it open excited to tell someone about her field trip.
"Hey Marsh look I'm not going to be in school today and get this I'm going to the mall isn't that the coolest girl?".
"Listen Sky I'm not calling over something good, You know Jessie right?, well him and I are going out and he hit me and I have no idea what to do" A blubbering girl said as Skwirely's happy eyes changed color.
""He did what Marshmallow and please leave nothing out he's going to be sorry he ever hit any of the Smore girls" Skwirely said as Wendy saw hatred in her daughters eyes.
"He hit me because I told him that I wasn't going to stop hanging with you, for some reason he doesn't like you but I do and so he decided to beat me up".
"Where does he live Marsh, we're going to make a little pit stop at his house".
"115 Rosemary Lane it's the one with a white fence around the yard, he said he'd be home today and my mom's keeping me home because of him" Marshmallow said crying harder as Skwirely saw Rosemary Lane and made Wally turn into the driveway.
"This is going to end bad isn't it Wend?" Wally asked as Wendy could just nod her head and Skwirely pounded on the front door.
"Good morning and how may I help you people today?, are all of you friends with my Jessie?" A woman asked as Skwirely shoved past her and started searching for Jessie.
"Wally your about to meet the side of Skwirely that came from my side of the family, she's going to stick up for her friends like I did at her age" Wendy said as a spiky blonde haired boy walked down the stairs to meet Skwirely at the bottom.
"Well, well, well Jessie Walters congrats on dating Megan Walsh AKA Marshmallow, but I do have to ask you to stop playing so rough with her unless you want to see how soggy this graham cracker could really get" Skwirely said as Jessie just laughed at Megan's nickname.
"Marshmallow that's priceless she even looks like a marshmallow round, soft, and easy to pull apart if you get where I'm coming from" Jessie said as Skwirely pinned him against the wall and smiled wider than him.
"Let's see how easy you are to pull apart, I mean God knows that the best Smores are made with two marshmallows instead of one".
The woman was Jessie's mother and she stayed a far distance from Skwirely as Jessie squeaked in fear.
"Now here's the deal Jessie your going to take our little Marshmallow on another date, it's going to be an apology date and if I hear of you touching her in any way she doesn't like I'll be back with chocolate, Marshmallow, and the other end of the graham cracker get me?" Skwirely asked as Jessie nodded.
"Good now call her and apologize, then hope to God she accepts your apology and wants another date because if by the end of the day she doesn't want one the Smore girls will be at your doorstep".
