"He called his rat poochie. Aly he called his rat poochie."
------------------------
Xavier's POV:
"Xavier, Xavier can we watch minions?!" I awake to Mallory and Cole bouncing on my bed giggling. "Please!" Cole continues before bumping into Mallory who falls on top of me.
"Hi sweetheart." I smirk and her cheeks redden.
"Hi." She whispers and buries her face in my chest.
"XAVIER!" Cole screams, bringing my attention back to him. I pretend to think about it and tap my finger on my chin.
"Okay" I say and Cole screams in excitement. He rushes out of the room and I look back down at Mallory. "You look comfortable." I say and her face becomes even redder, if that's even possible.
"I am." She says so quietly that I barely hear her.
"Well come on then." I get up, still holding her against my chest and she sighs deeply. We, well more like I walk downstairs and sit down on the couch. Cole has made popcorn and is sitting the big white fuzzy chair my mom got me last Christmas. Don't judge, it's my mom. Anyways, Cole chucks the remote at my face and I catch it before it hits me. "MINIONS!!!" Cole yells as I rent the movie. Mallory shifts in order to see the screen. I don't watch the movie. I'm too busy watching Mallory. The way she smiles whenever Bob does something cute.
"I want a Bob" Mallory mumbles once the movie ends.
"Okay." I say and stand up, still holding her.
"I didn't mean you had to get me one."
"Too bad. Cole, do you want to go to target?"
"YEAH!" He runs out and gets into my black civic. I chuckle and carry Mallory, who by the way is still protesting, out to the car. I pull open the door and set her down on the ground and she grumpily gets in. I walk around to the drivers side and start the car. Somehow Mallory's mood improved because she won't shut up about getting a Bob. I'm only catching parts, mostly hearing the word Bob over and over again.
"What are you going to get Cole?" I ask, interrupting Mallory's rambling.
"TMNT STUFF!" He squeals and Mallory must see my confused face.
"Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles."
"Oh." The rest of the ride is just Mallory babbling away about how adorable Bob is. Once we arrive at target Mallory and Cole take off towards the toys. I chuckle and head after them.
When i catch up with them Mallory is clutching a Bob and Cole is reaching for Leo from Teenage Monkey Ninja Titans or whatever. I grab Leo for Cole and he smiles at me and joining his sister in jumping up and down.
"I'll be back. Stay here, okay?" I say and then walk into the next isle. I decide to scare them so I go around to the other side of the isle. Cole spots me so i put my finger to my lips and he continues jumping.
I sneak up behind Mallory and clamp my hands over her eyes and mouth and she screams. I stay holding her for a minute and she struggles to get out of my grip but of course, she can't. She then screams my name against my hand and I freeze, dropping my hands to my sides. She called for me to come help her. That means she trusts me. I continue looking off into nowhere and I don't start paying attention to what's happening until a hand hits my face.
"XAVIER!" She yells loudly and I flinch. I didn't think she would be this mad. Whoops. I close my eyes, preparing for the worst when I hear her burst out laughing. My eyes pop back open and I give her my best are you crazy I thought you were gonna be mad look.
"Nah, that was funny!" She says, getting my message.
"Let's go pay." I say, laughing along with her.
--------------------------
Once back home Mallory demanded we watch minions again so she can "show Bob he's a movie star." Whatever makes her happy. So now we're watching it again. I'm actually paying attention this time, and the movie isn't that bad. It's actually funny.
Soon enough we get to the part where Bob gets momentarily sad because he misses his friends and I see a tear running down her cheek. At first I don't understand, but then I come to the realization that she misses her old friends too. Only Bob gets to see his old friends again at the end of the movie.
I gently bring my hand to her face and wipe away the year. Her eyes meet mine and she blushes slightly. Next thing I know, her lips are on mine. I start to kiss back and move my hand from her face and wrap it around her waist.
"MALLORY WATCH THE MOVIE!" Cole screeches and I pull away. Mallory smiles at me and turns back to the movie. I smile to myself, know realizing that I somehow convinced her to give me q chance.
