Masha POV.
Poor poor Jules, thinking he can keep the little baby away from me, I’d be honest, I was never interested in ones that young, I’ve had my eyes on River the whole time, he joined school late this year, but that gave me even a better chance with him.
Since day one River started to show signs of bonding with me, I wanted him, but to court a little could be a little tricky, you need their trust first, and that could only come after months of interaction. But after Kaiden came in, I had to admit, she changed my mind, she’s so little, so cute and cuddly. I’ll have to tie River down to be able to cuddle him for as long as Adrian does with her. I was about to take my cut and destiny in life and only have a little who’s little age is eight, but then the baby had to step in and demand to go with us. It’s the first time River eyes go totally grey, showing his dragon side fully, it’s special time for us to bond.
I carried the little guy, while holding my older baby hand, now what to do with two littles, Chase head went to lay over my chest while River was skipping ahead of me trying to pull me along wanting to go everywhere. Our safest bet was the outside playing area, aka the park, we can even get some ice cream after we’re done playing. Walking outside, River knowing where we’re going, he tried to slip out of my hand and move toward the monkey bars.
“Mommy! Can I go play! Can I go play!” He asks, I don’t think he noticed that he just called me mommy, it comes naturally after his dragon side has started showing.
“Sure love, just stay where I can see you” I say letting him go, he got upside down, jumped from one bar to another, did some roaring sounds. As long as he doesn’t fall he’s good, I turned now to the baby in hand, he can’t play roughly like River does, instead I had to look around for things more appropriate for him. The swings seemed like my safest choice, I placed him in carefully, he’s not supposed to do any extra activities, but swinging is good. I pushed him slowly, keeping an eye on the other little who’s now waving at me to look at him.
“Mommy! Look no hands! Me a monkey!” He tells me all proud of himself.
“Be careful River” I say in a firm voice, Chase started laughing at all the funny faces he’s making from afar.
“Let’s go get our monkey before he falls? Yeah?” I ask Chase who giggles but nod his head yes, I pick him out and move to River.
“But I’m still playing” he says with the biggest pout ever.
“You can play something else” I answer him, but the look in his eyes said a tantrum was coming soon, punishment are part of bonding, not ones I’d like to go to this early.
“We play sandbox?” Chase offers, we both turn to him, River tantrum seeming to disappear completely.
“Yeah! We’ll make a castle! And lock mommy inside it?” River was quick to move on with playing.
“Me dwagon! Me save her! Roarrrrr” Chase agrees with him on the new game, I simply go along and take them toward the sand area.
“What would I be then?” I ask them sitting down wkth them.
“Pwincess mama” Chase respond busy scooping sand, I was frozen, he just called me.
“Of course love” I answer not commenting on the new nickname, I let them play, helping with the building of the castle, acting the role of the princess in need of saving.
By the middle of the day, I was saved by Chase twice and locked back in by River three times, I had to save myself, ending the game for them, Chase was yawning, I know littles usually nap sometime during the day, I never paid attention to when.
“I guess we better get in, someone is tired” I say lifting Chase off the sands, taping the sand off his bum.
“But I’m not” River was quick to answer.
“How about ice cream, and then we go out Chase down for a nap” I explain, at the mention of nap Chase groaned while River cooed at him.
I bought all three of us ice cream, I had two hands only, it was a mess waiting to happen, both boys had ice cream all over their faces, Julius is going to kill me now, that’s going to be fun, I think to myself with a laugh, I just love messing with him.
