Finally, everyone was all dressed and ready to go. This day out could finally be started. Yeah, I know, I am a little excited. I don't think that anyone could bla . This was not a regular thing that we did, so I was looking forward to this as much as the kids were.
With Vincent, Shawn, Shane, and David, we left the castle in what could only be described as a caravan. My Little Bunny, the kids and I, were all in the limo, being driven by Gabriel. The guards were in the SUVs that were driving in front of and behind us. Two in each of them.
I had put my foot down when the attendants all wanted to co with us, that would have made us stand out more. It may be common knowledge for most of the supernatural community, but the humans didn't know how we lived. So, right now, I wanted us to appear as normal as possible. Right now, we were going to look like nothing more than a super wealthy family that was spending the day out together.
I wanted us to blend in as much as possible with everyone else. We shouldn't look much different that the stupid reality TV family that I always hear about. What were their nas again? The Darkashians or the Carsmashians? I don't rember, all I know is that they have a TV show and that everyone seems to be going gaga over them. I an, they've had that stupid show now for over twenty years because people keep watching it.
Anyway, this was about to be nothing more than when they take their kids out to keep up the ratings. Only, I am not trying to boost ratings or sales, just my wife's mood.
I hadn't thought to call ahead though, and I am not sure if anyone else did either. So, needless to say, when we pulled up out front, it was a bit of a mad house. The people didn't seem to care who we were. They saw a limo and the bodyguards and were instantly excited.
The guys did a great job, though. Vincent was a pro at his job now and with his skilled team at his back the four of them were able to get everyone into line. I have to say, he had managed to beco the best Beta and head of security that I could have asked to be there for my Little Bunny.
After we were all inside the building, the family day comnced. We took the children to the different stores to buy sothing that was special for each of them. We did the sa thing for Reagan and Rika the last few years, but this was the first year that Talia was part of it as well.
Rika, my ever evolving little monster, wanted sothing that was full of darkness, angst, and mythological creatures. It was funny in my mind for a couple of reasons. One being the fact that Rika was already a mythological creature since she is a werewolf mixed with Fae and witch blood. The other reason was that I couldn't believe how much angst Rika had for such a young child.
Oh, by the way, the item that she picked was a hand crafted, platinum, ruby, and sapphire dragon pendant that hung on the end of a platinum chain. It was a beautiful and intricately detailed piece, and I could see why she wanted it. However, I could also see how much emotion, positive and negative, the person crafting it had felt.
Reagan was just as predictable for his special sothing. He wanted sothing that had to do with race cars. He loved to go fast and move as fast as he could when he played. I have a feeling he will try to beco a racecar driver when he is older.
Talia didn't have such grand visions when it ca to her special gift. She picked sothing small, super cheap, and definitely not what she normally would have wanted.
"Talia, baby, you can pick anything that you want. Anything at all that is in the whole mall. Any store. What will it be?"
"I told you, Daddy, this is fine." She shook her head and refused to budge.
"Talia, why don't you want sothing more?" Little Bunny asked her with curious eyes.
"My special prize is having my mommy with . That is all that I wanted."
I saw that. I saw exactly what those words did to my Little Bunny, because they did the sa thing to . Those words, spoken by my sweet little four year old, had just lted every last piece of my heart. What on earth am I going to do?
"Tally?" Little Bunny looked like she was on the verge of tears when she pulled her daughter close to her. "Mommy is sorry that she's been so busy. Lately, I have been trying really hard to get to the point that I can just take ti off. I want to be with you more."
My Little Bunny hugged her daughter and held her against her chest. I could see them clinging to each other like there was so sort of healing going on between them. That's it, Talia, use that special brand of love to heal Mommy. Help , baby girl, help to get Mommy to stop working so much.
"Mommy, will you be coming with us tomorrow?" Talia pulled away and looked at Little Bunny's eyes.
"Going with you to where, baby?" She looked confused like she didn't know what her daughter was talking about.
"To school, Mommy. It's my first day."
"Oh, sweetheart, of course Mommy is going to go with you. I wouldn't miss it for the world."
Good, the promise was made. I would definitely be able to pull her away now. She couldn't risk breaking her daughter's heart now after all of this.
After that, Talia picked sothing else as her prize for the day. She got a giant unicorn plushie that she said was going to be her new pillow. It really was cute, and definitely bigger than she was.
We all sat down to lunch. Did more shopping. Talked a lot. All in all, it was a pretty good day. I would say that it was perfect, except that almost every ti that I looked over at my Little Bunny, she was rubbing her temples like she had a headache. Or there were tis when I saw her rubbing behind her ears, but it looked suspiciously like she was trying to intentionally plug her ears and make it so that she couldn't hear sothing.
Whatever she was doing, it was clear to see that she was annoyed by sothing.
Was this more of what had been happening with her? Was this the reason that my Little Bunny was so exhausted? Did she have chronic headaches? Was that all this was about? I hoped so, not that I want my wife to be in pain, but we could have Griffin and Lana take care of the dical stuff if that was what is needed.. Now that everything seed to be clearing up, I could start to feel a little bit of relief spreading through .
