Chapter 8: Curse

Small hands reached up to grab a glass jar off the shelf. Mommy had helped her decorate it with glitter. There were stars and a moon and pretty purple flowers covering the glass. The jar was getting heavy and soon she would have to get Daddy to get it off the shelf for her.

She grinned in triumph, purple eyes flashing and chubby cheeks splitting in a wide grin. She spun and dashed in to the kitchen where she could hear her mom and dad talking and making dinner. She giggled and called for her parents attention. "Daddy!" Cobra looked down at his tiny daughter "What is it Buttercup?"

Emmaline pulled the jar out from behind her back. "You said a bad word!" His single eye widened and she heard mommy laugh behind him. Emmaline smiled and tried not to giggle at her daddy. She watched him pull a Jewel note from his pocket and stuff it in to the mostly full jar.

Mommy crouched down and pulled her in to a hug, mommy always gave the best hugs. "You know to never repeat the words daddy says, right?" She nodded quickly. "Of course mommy!" Lucy grinned up at the frowning slayer who grumbled and shook his head. Emmaline didn't hear what her father had said but clearly her mother had as she threatened to make him put in another jewel note.

Cobra rolled his eye, gently took the jar from his daughter and placed it back on its rightful shelf. "Why don't yo go play with Aries while Mommy and I finish dinner?" Emmaline lit up and turned to her mother excitedly. "Oh can i? Please?"Her mother nodded and brushed against one of the keys on her hip.

The pink haired ram appeared and apologized profusely before allowing the young girl to drag her from the room. "At this rate your going to have enough money to send our daughter to college!" Cobra smirked and kissed his wife. "You're just better at hiding it."

The swear jar had started as a way to dissuade the gruff slayer from teaching their daughter bad words. Especially after the small blonde had begun to repeat them. Then she had started using them in sentences when she was frustrated. Cobra thought it was hilarious, Lucy on the other hand thought that growing up at the guild taught their daughter enough bad habits, they should at least try to keep things tame at home.

Over the years they had made a game of it, trying to think of interesting ways to avoid swearing in front of their daughter. Lucy wondered if Emmaline was going to take after her father with how well she could hear them swear from another room.

The swear jar really is not dissuading her gruff husband, it more so seemed to encourage him.

He seemed to want to test their daughter and see if she could catch him when he swore. Lucy shook her head and finished helping her Husband make dinner for their little family.

Emmaline loved her parents, and she knew that they loved her. She couldn't imagine anything being better than going to the guild and hearing her daddy make fun of her aunts and uncles. Especially uncle Natsu. Emmaline wondered why they didn't have a swear jar in the guild. Her cousin Asuka assured her that it had always been like this.

She also told her that they use to be more careful about swearing around the children until her daddy and uncle Macbeth joined the guild. Emmaline took pride in knowing the adult words. Not that she would ever let her parents hear her say them.

For as gruff as her daddy seemed her mommy was always the sweetest and well mannered. She strives to grow up to be just like her mommy and have everyone love her too. Her mommy had never put anything in the jar before.

Sometimes she heard her mommy swear late at night after she was suppose to be asleep. Then both her parents would swear, but they didn't seem to be angry with her or with each other and she didn't want to get in trouble for being awake when she was suppose to be asleep.

One day Mommy and Daddy had sat down with her and asked her if she would want a baby brother or sister. Mommy looked nervous and kept twisting her special ring around her finger. Daddy kissed the side of her head and rubbed her tummy and she started to think that she didn't really have a say.

As months passed and Mommy got bigger, she also seemed to get angry more often. Not at her but she would scream at daddy a lot. Daddy explained that they weren't fighting but that the baby made mommy have mood swings. Every time she would cry or yell daddy would pull her in to a hug and try to calm her down.

They had to empty the swear jar lots of times since mommy and daddy told her about the baby. They told her they were putting the money away for her and the baby. One day Emmaline was sitting in the kitchen while her parents were cooking and mommy was cutting up some veggies. Emmaline didn't know what happened but daddy inhaled sharply and grabbed mommy's hand.

The knife fell to the floor and Emmaline could see a little bit of blood on the blade. Her eyes widened and she watched daddy pull mommy's hand under the tap. He kissed the side of her head and asked if she was alright.

Mommy nodded, her eyes tearing up a bit. "I'm fine but this mother fucking knife is a piece of shit. God dammit that fucking hurt like a bitch." Daddy was grinning and he glanced back to see Emmaline sitting there with her mouth open and her eyes wide. He kissed the side of her head "Hush i know Bella, but you'll be fine."

Emmaline almost didn't know what to do with herself she stood up slowly and daddy watched her walk from the room. "Buttercup, where are you going?" She grabbed the swear jar and slowly brought it back in to the kitchen. "Mommy said a bad word."

The two adults looked at each other, Lucy in shock and Cobra grinning madly. "Mommy that was so many swear words!" Mommy blushed and Daddy pulled her up against his chest. "Mommy learned from the best." Mommy rolled her eyes and put a handful of jewel notes in the jar.

Short but sweet i hope! A cute way to end the week and promise of another CoLu baby! Please review and let me know if you liked it, not just this chapter but your thoughts on the story and if i should try my hand at this pairing again in the future!
