I jump through the window and do a somersault before standing. Emmett follows close behind but simply climbs through the window instead of flipping. The blankets on the bed fly upwards as the toddler squirms out of them. She jumps up and wraps her tiny little arms around me.

"Hey baby, how have you been?" I ask hugging her back.

"Good. I can almost do a back handspring." She replies with a wide grin revealing a small hole where a tooth should be. "Oh! And I lost my tooth! See!" She pokes her tongue through the the hole and I laugh slightly.

"That's great sweetie." I smile.

"Oh! Daddy I can do my trick now!" She says before making her eyes change to red. She changes them back and jumps down before wrapping her arms around Emmett.

"Good job pumpkin." He beams rustling her hair.

"Hey! Stop messing up my hair!" Darcy grumbles swatting at his arm. "I spent a whole two minutes brushing it this morning."

"It takes fifteen to brush mine." I state.

"Take your hair down, you always have it up. I wanna see it down for once." She says. I roll my eyes.

"Alright. I guess I'll take my hair down." I sigh before taking my hair out of the messy bun.

"Wow, that's a lot of hair." She comments.

"It is isn't it?" Emmett says with a crooked smile.

"I'm not cutting it either. I like my hair long." I retort.

"But doesn't get annoying?" She asks.

"I'm not cutting it." I reply.

"But if it's annoying why do you keep it?" She retorts.

"Honey if I got rid of everything that annoyed me, most of the world would gone." I state.

"Is that supposed to be a bad thing?" She cocks her head to the side.

"Yes, Darcy, it's supposed to be a bad thing." Emmett states flatly.

"It don't seem bad." She furrows her eyebrows. "But it's whatever." She shrugs. "Ooh! I have skittles!" She wiggles out of Emmett's arms and crawls under her bed. She pulls out a big bag of skittles and smiles. "Harper says my tooth fell out because of these but I ate an apple when it fell out. Harper doesn't like skittles."

"Harper might not, but mommy does." I sit in floor beside her and pull out a handful of skittles before eating them. Darcy grabs a few and gnaws on them.

"It's hard to eat when you don't have a tooth." She states. "But they're still good, so I eat them anyways."

"Don't eat too many or you'll get fat." I say.

"But you eat em all the time and you're not fat." She retorts.

"I can't get fat, you can." I tickle her stomach slightly and she laughs.

I plop down on the couch and grab the television remote. I stare at it in my hand for what seems like hours.

I flip through channels and continue snacking on skittles. I don't particularly watch TV, mainly because I'm either busy cleaning or something else. I hear my phone going off and groan before getting up and walking toward it. I bite my lip and stare at the screen before it goes to voicemail, then goes away completely. I open a random drawer and drop my phone inside after shutting it off completely. I close the drawer and I get a slight pain in my side. I take the bandage off and clean it again before putting on another. I sit back down on the couch and change the channel once again. The house phone rings and I grab the gun from the bathroom before shooting the phone. I put the gun on the table in front of me and change the channel. I finish the bottle of water and put it in the trash. I shut off the TV and start cleaning the house again.

I blink a few times before turning on the television and putting it on a random channel. I wrap a blanket around myself and pull my knees toward my chest. I rest my head on my knees while I blankly watch the screen. A hand gently falls on both of my shoulders and lightly squeezes them. I sit up normal and put my legs on the table. I gently press a kiss to his forearm before tuning back into the television. Emmett gently kisses my temple before moving to sit beside me. I lean against him and rest my head on his shoulder. Our hands slowly lace together and rest in our laps.

"I love you princess."

"I love you too muscles-for-brains."
