My Baby Boy

Chapter 4 looggggee?

After Esmeralda was done cleaning up the baby and dressing him in an elephant onesie, and giving him a pacifier
I took him for a walk in the backyard where my brother's hardly go.

The weather was still gray and gloomy from the storm but still a bit sunny.
I sat down on the bench next to the flower beds my mother planted.
They were all blooming beautifully.
" Ma.. boo boo " Freddy said blowing a spit bubble eww.
The little infant played with my hair twirling it's little finger in them then pulling it so irritating.
I took his hand away from my hair and shifted him on my lap so he was facing away from me.
" Mm hmm " Freddy whined trying to turn to face me but I hold him in place.
" Stop being a brat and keep still " I said.
" No bat I want you! " He whines still trying to turn to face me.
' what the f**k is that suppose to mean he wants me ' I thought.
Whatever babies say a lot of nonsense anyways.
" Papa no wa me, me no wa papa " Freddy said pushing out his lips and sticking up his nose in the air.
" Seriously Freddy what's that suppose to mean " I laughed turning him around to face me.
" Ah papa me loommgg " the baby tried to say something but I had no idea what it was.
" Looggggee!! " He whines kicking my hand.
" Hey! It's not my fault you can't speak properly " I said pinching his fat cheeks.
" I aaah!! " He screams frustratedly kicking and pulling his hair.
" Hey, stop that " I said removing his hands.
" Don't do that just because you can't speak properly you'll learn soon " I said rubbing his head causing him to yawn and snuggle up next to me.
I smiled so cute why am I so attached to this infant already.

An hour had passed and I was still sitting with Freddy in my lap fast asleep.
And now my leg is asleep too
ugh.
I slowly lift Freddy up careful not to wake him then I carried him back up to my room.

When I reached in my room Esmeralda was gone and she had left a note saying she'd be back tomorrow for our date.
I was hoping she'd forget it but I need someone to clean this baby's stinky bum so there's no way she'd forget.
I sighed if only i had a crib for this little boy so he could sleep in I'm so tired of him drooling on my bed.
I set the baby down on the bed and covered him with the blanket I bought, then I went out into the hall and closed my door.

I walked down the long hallway humming softly to myself.
That little infant stuck in my mind like glue it was hard not to think of him so I just not fight it I mean there's no harm in thinking of a little- " ahh! " I shrieked as I almost tripped down the stairs
Damn how embarrassing that's so not pretty but at least no one was watching.

I continued down the stairs trying not to think of the baby since it almost got me tumbling down the stairs.
Vincent was walking up the stairs carrying his painting set.
' why is he always painting? Oh yeah cause it's quiet hehe '
I giggled at my own thought only to catch him watching me.
" Hi Vince " I said
But he only nodded, how rude.

I skipped down the last few stairs and to the kitchen where Dracula and the rest of them were obviously preparing dinner.

" Hi guys " I said skipping in the kitchen smiling gleefully.
" Why so happy on such a gloomy day? " Kenny asked.
" Who says I was happy " I shrugged.
" You look rather jolly " he said cutting up some vegetables.
" Hmm " I hummed
Jumping up unto the counter and swaying my legs.
" If your not helping get out " Dracula said.
" Oh I'm helping after all I'm the best cook in the house or should say the universe " I sang.
Dracula scoffed but I knew the rest of my brothers agreed.
" So jack, would you cook the blood soup with your secret ingredient or sit on the counter and watch the pros " scarlett said and I knew she was challenging me.
" Hm, no, I'd rather watch and see what you can do " I smirked causing her to groan.
" Haha I told you he wouldn't fall for that same old trick everytime " Kenny laughed.

" Hmph," she pouted crossing her arms."worth a try."

" Hey jack," dracula said, gaining my attention." You didn't say anything.. mean to Esmeralda, did you?"
I furrowed my brows, pursng my lips.
" Hmm... No, why?"
"She seemed sad, before she left. I wondered if you hurt her feelings." He said, staring at me intently.
"No, well, not that I know of," I said, confused. I had not hurt her feelings... Or maybe I did, maybe she didn't like me having her care for Freddy.
Kenny snorts, stirring a pot of vegetables.
" Dracula's always worried about Esme, I bet he likes her." He giggles, and scarlette joined in.
"I do not. I was just asking " Dracula said irritatedly.
" Oh? Then why are you so mad? " Scarlett giggled.
"I bet, " I snickered then hopped off of the counter top.
" Where you going? " Drack asked.
" Oh don't change the subject just admit it, you love Esme don't you?" Scarlett and Kenny teased.
" Why don't the both of you stop changing the subject and get back to cooking " Dracula said.
" Buh bye " I said as i gracefully walked out of the kitchen.
