“Hey! No calling Daddy names. That’s grounds for punishment. I might have to go and buy you some new nightgowns. For now, though, you can wear my T-shirt.”
“And what are you going to wear? I mean . . . don’t get me wrong, the view is mighty fine.”
“Is it just?” He grinned like a cat that had gotten the cream.
She rolled her eyes. “You know you’re hot. But unless you brought a change of clothes, you’re going to need your T-shirt tomorrow.”
Hack frowned.
“I promise this isn’t any man’s T-shirt.”
“Fine,” he grumbled, slipping his T-shirt back on.
Jeez. Greer might need her head read. Why was she getting him to put his T-shirt back on?
Take it off. Take it off.
She slammed her hand over her mouth.
“Oh, what are you thinking now, Ladybug? Want to let me know?”
“No. I don’t want to let you know,” she said behind her hand. Was he insane? “That’s why I have my hand over my mouth.”
He removed her hand and with a tender smile, leaned in to kiss the tip of her nose. “Okay, Little girl. Now, it’s time for bed. Did you brush your teeth?”
“Yes.” Sheesh. Was he forgetting that she was a big girl? Obviously.
“And did you pee?”
“Yes, I peed!” she said in a high-pitched voice. Even as happiness danced inside her.
She liked having Daddy Hack taking care of her.
Even if he asked her ridiculous questions.
“Good girl,” he told her.
She wanted to do whatever would make him smile. And look at her like she was his world.
A yawn caught her by surprise.
“Time for sleep. I want you to lie with your arm on a pillow so you don’t jolt it, understand?”
“It feels fine, though.”
“Do as you’re told, missy.”
Yes, Daddy.
“I didn’t get my treasure,” she said suddenly as he was tucking her in.
“You didn’t? Hmm. Have you been a good girl, though?” He stood, staring down at her thoughtfully. “I don’t know.”
“I was too!” He couldn’t take her treasure away.
“How about we do it in the morning, all right? You can have your treasure, and then after your x-ray, if you’re good, I’ll take you for a treat.”
“Donuts? Ice cream? Donuts and ice scream?”
