Magnus was starting to worry, why? Because of Adella of course! nine months old and not a peep. Well, their were the regular goo-goos and ga-gas of course, but nothing substantial. He was starting to wonder if something was wrong with her.
Most babies said either 'Mama' or 'Dada' first right? What if his name was to hard? But if that was the case wouldn't she have said something else? According to Alec (well the baby book he'd filched from him anyway) she should have said something already. It could be 'corn' for all Magnus cared.
Right now he was feeding her carrot baby food, it was her favorite: at least he assumed so from all the happy screeching the little baby did whenever she saw the familiar color of it. One thing he most defiantly had to say about baby food, it was in no way, shape, or form a 'solid' and it was the hardest thing in the world to get the stains out! He'd had to throw out countless outfits because of the stuff.
As Magnus held a spoon in front of the child's face fixing to feed her she blew on it, splattering him with mashed up carrots. "Damn it!" he shouted, and this was one of his favorite shirts! While cleaning up his face Magnus heard Adella trying to mumble something, her first word? He crouched down in front of her highchair. "Watch'cha trying to say, El?"
"Da-it!"
She smiled and Magnus' eyes widened "Shit! No, Adella you can't say that!"
"Smit!" She shouted just like Magnus had, and giggled. Then their was a short knock on the door before Alec opened it, to be greeted by an orange faced baby, and a guilty looking Magnus. "What?"
"Adella said her first word?" Magnus said it somewhat like a question.
Alec smiled at Adella, "Oh? What was it?" Adella leaned foreword and grabbed at Alec's sleeve leaving an orange smudge on the black fabric. "What'd little Adella say?"
Magnus looked at him sheepishly, while Adella scrunched up her nose, and gave Alec a funny look. "Well, uh-"
"Wec! Wec!" the baby girl chirped happily, and reach out for the shadow hunter again.
Alec scooped her up, most definatly ruining his shirt, before saying "how cute! How'd she learn that?"
If Alec had been paying attention to Magnus, he would have seen his look of surprise and his mumble of "Already a trouble-maker! Teen years are gonna be hell!"
Even if Alec didn't hear Magnus someone did. "Ell, ell!"
"…that better be her nickname she's saying…"
