Hello readers,
Here is another one-shot for you.
Enjoy.
Punk and AJ are planning their daughter, Harley's sixth birthday party, which is this weekend. She wants all her friends to come over to the house for the party.
"Okay, how many friends are coming?" AJ asks her daughter as she finish washing the dishes.
"I don't know at least 20 people." Harley eating her breakfast, which consists of eggs, bacon, sausage and a glass of orange juice.
"At least 20, how many people are you inviting?" AJ in surprise
"Well, I send out 35 invitations with only 20 replied so far. The others told me that they would know by tomorrow." She is eating a piece of bacon.
"No! No! 35 friends is way too much. You have 20 people already, so you can only invite 5 more friends." AJ putting her foot down.
"But mommy I already gave them their invitations. I can't say no to them in the result that they will hate me. They will think that I favour them." Harley whining to persuade her mother.
"You know that only works on your father; 20 friends and that's final." She has her 'final decision' face on.
"But daddy said I can have that many friends over." She start throwing a fit with her arms crossed as she stomps the floor.
"Well daddy doesn't have to cook for all your 35 friends, does he?" AJ questioning not having her daughter's fit persuade her.
"He said he is going to buy pizzas for everyone to eat." Harley argues back to her mother.
"Oh he did, did he?" She nods. "Punk, baby come up here." She calls out downstairs, which is where the gym is."
"Hold on, give two minutes." Punk calls back to finish his reps.
Two minutes later, Punk comes up all sweaty without a shirt.
"Eww daddy put a shirt on." Harley disgusted as she continues to eat her breakfast
Punk sees the expression his daughter has as he smirks; an idea pop into his head. "How about a hug princess?" He starts walking to her.
"No! Daddy, you're so sweaty." He is already hugging her when she finish her sentence. "Eww daddy, now I have to burn my pajamas." She feels disgusted with the sweat on her skin. "I really like this one too." Wipes the sweat of with a napkin
"Sorry princess." He chuckles at her facial expression
"Don't worry sweetie." AJ speaks out. "I will wash them like I do with the rest of daddy's sweaty clothes." She giggles which puts a smile on their daughter's face.
"Do you want a hug too?" He now starts walking to his wife.
"Oh I want more than that." She pulls him closer to kiss him.
"Gross, my parents are so weird." As she sees them intensify the kiss. She jumps off the chair to head upstairs to change.
"Sweetie, what about your breakfast?" AJ breaks off the kiss just in time to catch her, but Punk continues to kiss her neck.
"I've lost my appetite." She shivers with disgust at her parents. She still thinks that boys are yucky.
"Look what you did you scared off your daughter." AJ lightly pushes him back to lightly hit him on his bare chest.
"You are the one who kiss me first and I'm in trouble." AJ nods. "Unbelievable." He throws his arms in the air.
"But that is not the only thing you in trouble for."
"Oh really, what did I do now?"
"You told our daughter that she could have 35 friends over for her birthday party?"
"Oh now it is our daughter." He chuckles not realize how serious AJ is now.
"Punk!" In a serious tone.
"What? It made our daughter happy when I accepted. You do want our daughter happy, don't you?" Punk smirking
"You're such a jerk, but how do we serve all our guests?"
"Yeah I know, but you love it. Now for serving them, I will order pizza. We get some chips, we get about 7 bottles of soda with a case of water and have the party in the backyard. When it gets dark, we will let them watch a movie in the theater room with 5 bags of popcorn." Punk explains
"Wow, you have plan this whole party out." AJ surprise at her husband's plan to serve their many guests.
"Of course, you know I always have a plan."
"And what is your plan when they are watching the movie?"
"Oh it is for us to have a little time of our own. We are going to have a little movie making of our own." Punk pecking her lips.
"No, I told you only once and that is it." AJ hitting him lightly as she knows what he is thinking.
"Oh we are not making another one, we are watching it. If we so happen to re-act the whole situation then so be it." He pulls her closer to him.
"But you will have to clean up the backyard and the kitchen first."
"I think that I can make happen." He pecks her again before going back downstairs.
Harley's Party:
All of her 35 friends have arrived. They are in the backyard playing on a trampoline they rented along with others playing different sports.
"How did our daughter have some many friends?" AJ ask with Punk behind her.
"She has two incredible parents that teaches her confidence to speak to anyone. Plus, she has your looks and personality, so any person could see how sweet our baby girl is." He hopes that the compliment will get him out of cleaning the backyard and kitchen.
"Ah, thank you, but you still have to clean the kitchen and backyard." She turns around with a smile.
"Of course." He is not letting her notice that he caught him.
Around 8 pm, it started to get dark outside, so Harley and her friends are in the theater room to pick out a movie or two.
"Okay since it is the weekend you get to watch two movies. And you will get to have popcorn and chips as a snack. Of course the birthday girl gets to choose." Punk explains to his daughter's friends.
"Okay, how about a funny and then a scary movie." Her friends cheer in excitement
"Okay, let's see." Using the remote to search for the movie she wants to watch. "How about the Woman in Black?" Her friends cheer in excitement once again. "Okay, for the funny movie, how about Shrek?" Once again they cheer.
"Okay, everyone pick a seat while I get the snack ready."
Before AJ and Punk leave to get the prepared snacks, her friends say something. "Thank you Mr. and Mrs. Brooks."
They are both surprise with their manners. "You are right she does have our personalities to pick the right friends to hang out with.
"Did I hear that right, I was right?" Punk touch by his wife words.
"Yes you were, don't let go to your head." AJ giggles.
"Well then you can cook the popcorn yourself because this is mine." He pretends to be mad as he grabs one bowl of popcorn.
"Well then you get to clean up by yourself while I take a nice, warm bath in our private bathroom." AJ smiles as she starts to walk to their bedroom.
"Damn, you win this round, but I will win this game. You will be screaming to congratulate me for my victory."
"I hope so."
Around midnight, all of Harley's friends went home after they finish the Woman in Black movie.
"Thank you for letting all of my friends over mommy and daddy." She hugs them
"You're welcome sweetie, did you enjoy?"
"Definitely." She yawns. "I'm going to sleep."
"Okay baby girl off you go." Punk seeing his daughter's eye lids about to fall.
"Our daughter enjoyed her birthday." AJ snuggles up to Punk.
"She definitely did. Now it is time for our movie time." He smirks.
"Nope you have to clean this kitchen, it is a mess." AJ pecks his lips before walking to their bedroom.
There are empty plastic cups everywhere with some popcorn on the ground. The popcorn bag are everywhere along with pizza boxes.
"You two have me wrapped around your fingers, oh so you think." Punk whispers as he starts cleaning.
"We do, but if you a good little boy then you get a treat." AJ speaks out without turning around and still walking.
Punk is surprise that she heard that. It gives him a bit more motive to clean up the kitchen fast.
Punk finally finish cleaning the kitchen as he heads upstairs. He checks on his daughter to see her sleeping peaceful; he kiss her on the forehead. He doesn't know that her dream is going to turn into a nightmare soon. He gets to their bedroom to see AJ all curled up in their bed with her favourite shirt on. It is his grey' In Punk We Trust' shirt that he gave her.
"You love that shirt, don't you?" He admires her body under the blanket.
"Absolutely." She turns her body towards him.
"If I knew I would have gotten a couple more, so you wouldn't have to use the same one over again." Punk seeing that it is a little worn out by how many washes it has been through.
"I like this one because it is the one you gave me after your match with Daniel and Kane. It has your scent which I love." She smells the shirt.
"I love your scent too; it is so addictive." He climbs into bed with her as she snuggles right up to him. She press play to their movie that is already set up before he came in.
They didn't last 2 seconds before Punk starts to move his hands along her body with kisses on her neck. When he is about to take off their clothes, there is a knock at their bedroom door.
"Who is that?" AJ ask as she stops the video.
"I don't know." He is confuse on who would be out there; Harley is sleeping already.
"Mommy, daddy are you awake?" Harley asks, with a bit of fear in her tone, knowing that her parents stay up later than usual parents do. She also knows that when her parents's door is closed is to knock.
Punk sense her fear as he rushes to the door. "What's wrong baby girl?" He is in just his shorts with AJ sitting up on their bed.
"Daddy." She has a blanket around her with her little bear in her hand. The little bear is a present that Punk and AJ gave to her on her third birthday; she holds it only when she is scared.
"Did you have a bad dream?" He knows the signs when his little girl has a bad dream. Harley nods. "Okay come on you can sleep with us tonight." He smiles to give comfort to her.
"Just for awhile, I'm a big girl I can sleep by myself." She tries to act brave just like her father teaches her.
"Of course, our brave big girl." He chuckles. He closes the door while Harley walks to AJ with the blanket dragging behind.
"Hey sweetie, what's wrong?" AJ ask when she gets on the bed.
"I had a bad dream mommy." She snuggles into her.
"Well don't worry mommy and daddy are here to scare the dreams away." She kisses her head.
AJ looks at Punk with a smile. He joins them to wrap his arms around his family. "She is going to stay with us for tonight. I think the movie has gotten to her and the shadows remind her of it." Punk whispering to not wake up Harley.
"Yeah, are you okay with that?" AJ ask rocking her daughter slowly.
"Definitely. Our daughter is our number one priority."
"Or she has you wrapped our her finger." AJ giggles quietly.
"Of course she does and so do you." He kisses her forehead before kissing his daughter's.
Harley did end up staying with her parents the whole night.
