Stepdad: Dalton
꧁Ariana꧂

"No Ari put the the new tree topper on top of the tree, that one is old" Courtney said replacing mine with the one she bought me. "Courtney it's my tree I liked it"

"You don't like mine" Courtney fake pouted crossing her arms. "Courtney-"

"Aaliyah would you please stop eating the people?!" I hear Dalton yell and started off to the kitchen. "What's going on- oh my god" I couldn't believe my eyes, the kitchen was a complete mess. "What the fuck! It's only been like, 20 minutes"

Dalton nodded, "Yes Ariana, 20 minutes alone with Aaliyah. That's like giving a toddler a pair of scissors, which you've done before" He said attempting to wipe the counter off. "That was one fucking time"

"That was one fucking time" Aaliyah repeated causing Dalton glare at me, "My point..."

"Mommy look" Aaliyah said showing me the gingerbread house that her and Dalton were working on.

I sighed deeply rubbing my forehead with my hand, poor Dalton. "It's beautiful bubs"

I picked her up sitting her on the counter. "Ariana she's eaten like half of the pieces" I shrugged grabbing a piece of the door, taking a bite out of it. "So, isn't that like the whole point of a gingerbread house? To eat it" Aaliyah placed her hands on my cheeks trying to pull the piece of food from my mouth. "You want one" I broke off another and gave it to her.

"Would you two stop eating this property!? A nice and lovely gingerbread family could've bought this home!" I burst into laughter covering my mouth as I was still chewing. "Baby, you can't be serious"

"You keep eating it!"

"Dalton oh my- it's not a real house"

I wiped around Aaliyah's mouth with my finger cleaning the frosting from her face. She jumped down from the island making me gasp. That things at least 4 feet off the ground and she's so tiny. "Go see if Courtney needs anything"

Dalton wrapped his arms around my waist from behind. "You know I was joking right" I gently but with force pushed him away. "I sure hope you were" He fed me a gummy bear and I did the same to him. "This is really good, I'm considering you already have another one that's pre-made" I nodded taking a scoop of icing and sucking it off my finger. "Yup that's me" I slid the board with all of the ingredients on it to the side.

"Maybe I'll send Aaliyah to stay with my mom tonight so we could have some alone time" I sighed resting my head on his chest.

"Sounds like a plan to me"

"We can also finish wrapping Aaliyah's presents."

"Shit I forgot. Then I have to make sure to get them under the tree-" Aaliyah walked back in and I paused looking down at her.

"Santa, Santa's gonna put them under the tree-I'm not putting the presents under the tree, Santa is. I'm gonna tell Santa to put them under the tree. Yeah not me Santa" I stuttered, both my husband and daughter looking at me like I was crazy.

"Me and Courtney finished come on" She tugged my shirt dragging me into the main sitting area where the tree was. "Wow mama's you two did a great job finishing it off" Aaliyah giggled running over to Courtney who was motioning for her. "Aaliyah I got you a present but you can't open it until Christmas okay?" Courtney told her showing her the wrapped up gift. "You can put it underneath the tree though bubs" I bent down next to her pushing it under.

"And on Christmas you can open it"

"I wan to open it now though"

"You can't, now's not Christmas babes"

"Every day is Christmas"

I shook my head, her stubborn ass.

I'm suddenly in the Christmas spirit so if u have a idea for a X-mas one let me know!
