why don't we imagines

parents for a day (d.s)

a/n: heyy, sorry i took forever to post lol but i hope you enjoy this, it was fun to write. also thank you for requesting:) my requests are still open btw.

summary: Y/n and Daniel take care of Lavender (Jack's daughter) for a day....but i decided to make it interesting so in this imagine, y/n doesn't particularly like taking care of kids lol.

"Alright." Jack set Lavender down on her feet from his hip and crouched down in front of her. "You three have fun, okay?" He spoke gently, brushing a strand of her already untamed hair from her face. The two adults stood in front of them nervously, particularly Y/n. "Are you guys sure you can handle this?" Jack asked again, furrowing his eyebrows teasingly.

"Yeah!" Daniel replied confidently.

"Nope." Y/n murmured beside him. Daniel glared at Y/n out of the corner of his eye. He watched her tug the sleeves of his hoodie further up her palms in nervousness and shuffle her feet haphazardly.

"Don't listen to Y/n." He assured, pulling a tight smile at Jack.

"Okay." He replied hesitantly, pressing a feather-light kiss to Lavender's forehead. "Be good." He stuck his forefinger out solemnly. Lavender only giggled in front of him, spreading a cheeky grin on her father's face too. "Promise." He held out his pinkie and Lavender interlocked her small finger with his.

Daniel crouched down beside her too, "we're gonna have so much fun, aren't we?" Daniel cooed, tugging down the brim of her purple, crooked bucket hat sweetly. Lavender nodded cheekily, unknowing of the peculiar events to come.

"K, well I gotta go." Jack stood up and grabbed his backpack from the sofa beside him. Daniel sauntered behind him, guiding him towards the door. Meanwhile, Y/n walked precariously behind the two boys, foolishly dodging the toddler who was plodding behind her.

"See ya, dude." Daniel said. They shared their usual handshake. Daniel assured Jack profusely that if anything happened, he would call him as soon as possible. Daniel turned back to Y/n and Lavender after he shut the front door and waved goodbye. "Okay, what should we do first?" He clapped his hands together.

Y/n walked up reluctantly and pulled Daniel to the side, away from Lavender enough so she couldn't hear. "Why did you have to agree to this?" She whispered sharply.

Daniel knew babysitting wasn't Y/n's cup of tea, but he assured her gently with "Y/n, he's busy and no one else could do it...It'll be fine." He chuckled, resting his forearms on her shoulders. Y/n merely dropped her gaze to the floor. "I mean look at her, she's so cute." He shuffled behind her so she had a good glance at Lavender. She was playing quietly next to Daniel's messy heap of music sheets next to the piano. Y/n huffed and closed her eyes for a moment in thought. "Fine. But I need Starbucks first." She said seriously. Daniel's subtle frown broke into a grin, and he chuckled gently, placing a comforting kiss to Y/n's lips.

The group of three had finally made it to the Starbucks around the corner. After nearly an hour of trying to get the booster seat perfectly set in Daniel's car, they finally worked it out – thanks to Jack who was guiding them through it on the phone - and were travelling smoothly through the drive thru.

"Okay, iced coffee for me, iced coffee with extra caramel for you..." Daniel spoke like a true gentleman, holding out the plastic cup of coffee with an extra toothy smile just to ease her anxious thoughts.

"Finally!" Y/n leaned forwards in her seat and pushed her seatbelt away, nearly snatching the coffee from Daniel in a fit of excitement. She lolled her head back as she sipped her drink and closed her eyes in pure delight.
