I frowned up at him.
"You fell asleep at my tea party last time."
His cheeks went red and he coughed.
"That was because Father was tired and the tea made me sleepy."
I grinned, pressing my hands to his cheeks.
"That's because there was a sleeping spell in it," I whispered before doing my best evil laugh.
Father smiled, kissing me on my bandaged forehead.
I had been playing with a group of kids, using magic and spells when one of the boys crashed into me. I fell and my head hit a hard rock. One minute I was playing, and the next I was waking up in the hospital with a pretty nurse and toys.
I was living the life, or that's what Gabriel said.
Mommy had to work late today so Father was here watching me until Brother arrived.
"Is our Princess wreaking havoc in the halls at this time of night?” I heard Gabriel’s voice.
I squealed, wiggling in my Father's embrace so he’d let me down. He sighed, lowering me to the ground but didn't let go.
"Walking, not running,” he stressed.
"Yes, Daddy!" I cheered and he let me go.
I laughed evilly and ran to Gabriel who shook his head but did so with a wide smile on his face.
He knelt down and opened his arms wide and I hugged him tightly. Then he lifted me up and I squeezed his neck.
"Jewel, you're going to choke your brother," Father pointed out.
I frowned, looking back at Father with a sad face.
"But I missed him so much.”
Father smiled before coming over to brush my cheek.
"Alright, but let him breathe a little."
"Hehehe. Okay, Daddy." I rested my head on Gabriel's shoulder.
"You missed me that much?" Gabriel asked with a smile.
"Very much. It's boring without you," I mumbled.
"But Father was here."
"He fell asleep at my last tea party." I lifted my head and turned to point an accusing finger at Father. He looked sheepishly away.
Gabriel laughed.
"Oh did he? Don't worry, I won't fall asleep. You want to play now?"
I took a second to think of what I wanted to do but yawned instead.
"No. I wanna sleep," I mumbled, resting my head back on his shoulder.
