Becky enjoyed baths, well that was Perry's conclusion anyway after he saw how much fun she was having in the water. He smiled as she splashed around her rubber duck bouncing on the waves she created. Doofenshmirtz was laughing too. He washing her hair with the shampoo they got this morning and making sure he didn't get it in her eyes. Becky giggled in response to the towel pressing across her baby soft skin, her teal green hair getting ruffled by Perry as he dried her off. It was a two man (well a man and a platypus) job to clean this squirmy little one. But none the less, they enjoyed spending time together with their daughter.

Perry headed back to Phineas and Ferb; they hadn't seen him all day. It was only a temporary stay though; Perry wanted to make sure he spent as much time with Becky as possible without upsetting his host family. Phineas smiled as he walked back into the house his pyjamas already on "Oh, there you are Perry" Perry made his usual chirping noise next to him as Phineas crawled into bed.

He headed back to the D.E.I building after Phineas and Ferb were asleep. Doofenshmirtz was waiting for him at the door "Ah Perry the Platypus I wanted you to see this" he held Perry's hand holding Becky in his other crooked arm leading them to a room. He flicked on the lights "Behold!" Perry walked into the room. It was a pale pink room with a furry white carpet, he recognised the toys they had bought for her today and they were all arranged into a corner and in the middle of the room stood a lone white cot filled with pillows and blankets. Doofenshmirtz smiled as Becky crawled into her new room smiling "so what do think? It used to be Vanessa's but its amazing what you can do with some paint and a few hundred toys huh?" Perry was still holding his hand mouth agape. He then crawled up Doofenshmirtz's back and hugged his head 'It's perfect'

Doofenshmirtz felt Perry's heat combine with his burning cheeks "i-I'm glad you like it" Becky was playing with her duck doll in the toy corner and began to yawn softly. Perry picked her up as she leaned backwards into his chest. Doofenshmirtz placed her in her cot and began to sing softly

Schlaf, Kindlein schlaf.

Der Vater hüt' die Schaf,
Die Mutter schüttelt's Bäumelein,
Da fällt herab ein Träumelein.
Schlaf, Kindlein schlaf.

Perry kissed his daughter on the head as she slept peacefully. They both walked out the room quietly, Doofenshmirtz turning off the lights and turning on the fibre optic stars he had installed in the ceiling. Perry smiled at him raising an eyebrow 'Nice lullaby' Doofenshmirtz smiled "well I used to hear my mother sing it to my brother Roger when he was a baby…she never sung it to me though" Perry patted him on the back in sympathy and Doofenshmirtz smiled back in response.

They walked back into the bathroom. He wondered why Doofenshmirtz had led him in here.

"Ok Perry, now you"

Perry stared at the tub blankly

"Well come on get in. you've still got some mud on you from this afternoon"

Perry was used to be sprayed with a hose whenever he got muddy.

Doofenshmirtz rolled his eyes "oh geez…" he picked Perry up by the waist and put him in the bath gently. Perry was panicking; he didn't like the idea of water that actually steamed and had bubbles in it.

"Stop squirming Perry the platypus and trust me!"

Trust my nemesis? How can I trust my neme-…Perry blinked as he stood in the warm bubbly water. It felt… nice. He sat down taking his hat off so it wouldn't get wet. The bubbles surrounded him tickling his fur; no wonder Becky enjoyed this so much. Doofenshmirtz hung his arm over the bath, his fingers playing in the water "See? Told you it wasn't so bad." Perry nodded smiling leaning back into the foam.

"Didn't your owners give you baths Perry the platypus?" he asked quizzically

'Never like this' Perry thought closing his eyes

"Well…I want the best for you Perry the platypus that's all"

After an awkward pause Doofenshmirtz cleared his throat

"A-anywho we've got to get this mud out…" Doofenshmirtz stood up over Perry and placed his hands on Perry's shoulder blades rubbing the shampoo in gently with fingers. Perry felt a tingle down his spine and a flush of heat in his cheeks as he felt Doofenshmirtz's slender fingers caress his fur. Doofenshmirtz let the soft fur slide through his fingers and he felt the redness in his cheeks.

"I-i-if I'm rubbing to hard j-just say Perry the platypus…" Perry's eyelids drooped it was so soothing. He gave out a low growl almost a purr as Doofenshmirtz went further down his back.

His muscles were trembling as he craned his neck "my god that's good…" Doofenshmirtz looked down at him smiling "was that…a purr Perry the platypus?" Perry tensed up blushing hard "Perry the platypus, I think I've finally found your weakness" he grinned looking into his eyes "but don't worry…I won't tell."

Perry swished his tail making a few bubbles fly into the air above them. He tried to burst a few of them giggling every time one popped.

Doofenshmirtz tried to keep in his laughter 'I can see where Becky gets her cuteness from…why have I never noticed this before?' He woke up from his thoughts by a splash of warm water which came from a sniggering platypus. He smirked splashing some water back at him. They got into a fun water fight both laughing 'Just like old times' they both thought feeling their faces go pink.

After drying themselves off Doofenshmirtz was now in his pyjamas and Perry was yawning beside him, it had been a long and interesting day. Doofenshmirtz sat on the bed feeling the springs squeak underneath him.

He looked at Perry who was beginning to settle himself on the floor "oh no you don't I'm not having you sleeping in that dusty corner." He patted the quilt next to him feeling the blush in his cheeks "y-you can sleep…up here tonight"

Perry had only slept on the kid's beds and it felt ok but this just felt weird. Sleeping on your nemesis's bed is a little strange especially after what happened last night. But he felt like he could trust him tonight, he had seen him as a different person. He clambered up onto the bed and sat next to Doofenshmirtz who was rubbing his hands nervously. "so…uhm good night Perry the Platypus"

Perry shrugged 'good night' he circled a spot on the pillow and slept right then and there. Doofenshmirtz lay down on the bed staring at the sleeping platypus next to him 'what is this feeling I keep getting? Whenever I talk to him or even look at him I feel so nervous but happy at the same time…' Perry stirred in his sleep rolling over to Doofenshmirtz nuzzling into his PJs. Doofenshmirtz felt the blush in his cheeks 'oh geez…' he closed his eyes getting to sleep 'part of me thinks that last night wasn't an accident at all…' he smiled 'heh, nice accident'
