"UNCLEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!" London and Cara screamed from behind me and I turned around to face them and made way for Downey, he stepped inside and put his arms out waiting for their hugs, they ran to him and hugged, I don't know why but I found it cute, but I was surprised, they look so cute, but uncle?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Alright, nice and tucked in aren't you?" I asked London.

"Yep!" London snuggled in with his stuffed dog.

"Sleep well and goodnight," I whispered and kissed his head. I went over to Cara's room to see if she was asleep and she was, looks like Mr. Downey knows how to put kids to bed. I walked back into the living room to see Mr. Downey watching American Idol.

"Did London fall asleep?" He turns his head towards where I was standing.

"Yea he did," I walked over to the couch and sat near him.

"I never knew you were a nanny?" He asked while turning off the T.V.

"And I never knew you were an Uncle."

"Well, their father is my brother so I'm an uncle."

"Yes I understand," I nod, I stand up and go to my room, grab my college homework and go back to the living room and sit back down.

"Need any help?"

"No I'm fine, you know I know that we have known each other for 2 days but, I feel as though I have known you since forever."

"I'm going to take that as a compliment!"

"It's supposed to be one Sherlock," I tease.

"Alright Watson, do you want a drink?" He says in a British accent.

"Don't mind if I do Holmes." We both stand up and walk over to the kitchen and I leave my homework in the living room, I don't know exactly what I want to drink but I'm a bit thirsty.

"What are you going to drink?"

"I don't know actually, I'll have whatever you're having I guess."

"Okay a hot cocoa it is," he grabbed a pot and the cocoa powder.

"It's-" I grab my phone and check the temperature, "it's literally 78 degrees Fahrenheit."

"And? Hot cocoa can be good anytime," he turns his head back at me.

"...okay ya your right." he turns his head back around and starts making the cocoa. "Soooooooooo..."

"Sooooooo?"

"How old are you?"

"I am 46 years old, you?" He turns around when finishing putting the water with the cocoa powder to boil.

"Wow, you don't look like you're 46."

"Yeah I know, a lot of people say that, anyway, you didn't answer my question."

"Oh yea, I'm 21, well going to turn 21 next month." My phone started to ring from my back pocket, I got it out and checked it was my Grandma, yes I know I did say that all my family is in my home country but I am more connected with her than anyone else.

"Hi, Grandma!"

"Hello sweetie, it's nice to hear your voice again," she chuckled.

"It's nice to hear yours as well Ma."

"So I'm thinking of coming to America to celebrate your birthday, and bring some of your cousins along with me."

"Aw no, it's fine Grandma, having just you here with me is fine."

"Are you sure, I know you don't like talking with everyone in the family as much but I think maybe reconnecting with all of us may make you happier?"

"I don't know, you can bring them, we can see but I don't think it'll make me happier."

"Alright, anything you want, if you change your mind and need someone to talk to I'm always here, and if you get a boyfriend you better tell me about him, I wanna make sure he doesn't hurt you."

"Pfff, okay Ma," I chuckle.

"Alright sweetie, get some rest, bye-bye."

"Bye-bye!" I say in a baby voice.

My grandma and I have a great bond, I would never lie to her, she's honestly the best person you will ever meet. I haven't told you this but I only worked for Mabel for 1 month. So I don't know much about her family or her husband's family, that's why I was surprised to find Downey was their uncle.

"Who was that?" Downey asks while leaning on the counter table.

"My lawyer, he wants to discuss the murder that happened," he laughs.

"I don't think anyone talks like that with their lawyer."

"Mmm well, surpriseeee! I do," we chuckle.

"Yeah okay, what did your grandma want?"

"Nothing much she just wants to come to America."

"Well isn't that nice of her?"

"It is, but she wants to bring the rest of the family, and I don't get along with them."

"That's okay, not everyone should get along with everyone," he turns around and walks over to the fridge and grabs the milk, and puts the milk with the mixture.

"I'm gonna go to the living room and wait for you to be finished." He nods his head at me, and I go to the living room and sit down and start on my homework. 3 minutes later he comes with 2 cups of cocoa in his hands.

"Here's your cup, enjoy!" I take the cup from his hands and take a sip while he sits down and grabs the remote. It's not bad.

"This is delicious, thank you!"

"I know it is, I made it," he rolls his eyes and scoffs."

"Self-confident much," We chuckled and I put the hot cocoa down and tried to finish my homework. Now and then I would take a sip from the cocoa while doing my homework. I decided to take a break to see what Downey was watching, and suddenly I blacked out.

Robert's pov:

I don't even know what I'm watching. I'm just watching cause I'm bored and the kids are asleep. I feel someone's head on my shoulder and I see it's y/n's head and she's asleep. Okay you'd think I'd know what to do, but I don't, so I'm just letting it happen. I eventually got tired after 2 hours and got up and slowly laid y/n on the couch. It was currently 10 pm, the doorbell rang and I went to go open it.

"Hey Mabel," I went in for a hug and she hugged back.

"Hey Rob, what are you doing here?" she let go and walked and I closed the door.

"Well, obviously I came here to see the kids, Jeremy, and your husband."

"Ah, well Jeremy; my brother isn't here yet, and neither is my husband so you'll have to wait till they come back."

"Right of course," We walk into the living room and I tell her that y/n dazed off, she said if it was alright for me to carry her to the guest bedroom, I kinda argued with her because that's where I sleep when I come and visit and she told me to deal with it. So right now I'm carrying y/n to the room that I will also sleep in, I open the door and walk over to the bed and place her in and cover her while I sleep on the chair.
