She giggled.
“Oh, you think that’s funny, do you?” He picked her up. “Laughing at Daddy is a serious offence, you know.”
“Is it? What do I get? Corner time? A spanking?”
“Nope. You have to watch my choice of movie.”
She groaned. “Nooo. That’s so cruel.”
“It’s only what you deserve. Perhaps next time you’ll think twice about laughing at my glitter predicaments.”
“No guarantees.”

“Come on,it’s bedtime, Little girl.”
“Nooo.”
“Yep. You’re falling asleep as you sit there.”
Well, that was greatly exaggerated. Her eyes had only closed for the briefest of minutes.
Hack stood and held out his hand to her. They’d been watching the movie he’d chosen. Some comedy that was actually quite good, but she just couldn’t keep her eyes open.
She huffed out a breath but let him help her up.
“I’ll help you get undressed,” he said as they reached Ethan’s bedroom door.
Um. What now?
“I don’t need any help undressing.”
“You can’t get undressed with an injured wrist,” he replied.
“Sure, I can. Wait here.”
He scowled, but to her shock, he stood there as she closed the bedroom door.
She had to admit it wasn’t easy. And she had to use her injured wrist more than he probably would have liked. But it didn’t hurt that much.
He was just being overprotective.
Finally, she got on one of the oversized T-shirts she liked to wear to bed and moved into the bathroom to brush her teeth and pee.
Because he didn’t need to be here for that part either.
She climbed into bed. “I’m done.”
“What took so long?” he grumbled as he opened the door and strode in, his eyebrows scrunched up in a frown.
“It wasn’t that long.”
He came to a stop, his face flashing with anger.
What the heck? She froze. What was it? Was he really upset with her? Should she have let him help her pee?
“Oh no, this isn’t going to happen.”
