Almost like you. Frank Morrison x reader (dbd)

Chapter 30

Franks POV

"Hi you two! Are you going shopping?" (Y/n) asks from as with a smile on her face. Before I can answer Hope jumps down and hugs my legs. "Frank! J! I'm glad to see you! " She gives me a wide smile which makes me chuckle at her cuteness. "I'm glad to see you too! We were just walking by until he saw you two." I say as I nod towards Joey. I lift Hope in my arms and she gives me tight hug. (Y/n) smiles when she looks at us put then she turns to look at the man.

"Oh right. This is Jeff." He gives us a smile and a sharp shake of his hand. "I'm Joey and this one is Frank." Joey says before he turns to look at (Y/n). "I'm going to buy a gift for a one girl. Do you have any suggestions?" I can't believe that he needed to ask something like that from her. "Well... Maybe some pretty bracelet or a neckless? That might be a good start." She smiles at him which makes him think for a moment. "Yeah! That's a great idea! Thank you (Y/n)!" He says happily which makes her giggle.

"Can I ask you who's the lucky girl?" Even I could see those dark cheeks that he was showing. "It's just for a friend." (Y/n) smiles with a smile on her face. "Okay but say my regards for the said friend." She says before she turns to look at me. "Are you keeping him company? That's a sweet thing to do." I shrugged my shoulders. "He dragged me along. I didn't have another choice." Joey laughs at that and wraps his arm around my shoulders. "I wanted him to have better things to think about than school."

She just smiles at me and I send her a wink. "Mommy can I go with them? I want to buy you a present too!" Hope says as she hugs me tighter. "If they take you with them then sure!" I look at Hope who was looking back at me with these huge puppy eyes. "Sure she can come with us." I say to (Y/n) which make Hope squeal with happiness. (Y/n) lifts her purse and takes some money out of it. "This is for her. Can you make sure she doesn't lose it?" She asks from me which makes me nod. "Of course. We'll bring her back shortly."

(Y/n) seems to be pleased with that as she waves goodbye to Hope. "Be good with them. And no tantrums." Hope nods before she gives her a wave too. "See you later mommy!" Hope says to (Y/n) who was all smiles. "See you later." Jeff says to Hope who turns her attention on him. "See you later Jeff!" Hope waves to the bearded man too who only smiles back at her. I don't know what his deal was but I really didn't like him at all. What was his deal anyway?

When we get outside Joey turns to look at me. "So jewelry it is! Are you going to buy anything for her?" He asks from me but I only stare at him blankly. "I don't know." He nods as he turns to look at Hope who was still in my arms. "You're going to help me pick a pretty neckless or a bracelet for the pink haired girl?" Hope cheers happily. I put her down so she can go over to him. "Okay! I know the best things! Mommy says I have a great taste in everything so this is easy!" She says as she takes his hand. I walk behind them and just think for a moment. Surely if I find something nice, I'll buy it for her.

When we reach the stores Hope is like it's Christmas. I don't remember the last time I was that excited. "Let's go here." Joey says as he points at some jewelry shop. "Are you sure you have enough money to get anything form there?" He just looks at me for a moment and then just smirks. "I don't but my boss kindly sponsored this shopping trip." I knew that cheeky shit would steal for this. More to him. "Nice one." I say to him and look at Hope. She was already looking for something that would be good for Susie.

"I didn't know you two are into jewelry?" We hear familiar voice say which makes us turn around. Julie was standing there with Susie. "Why can't we just hang around here?" I question her which makes her laugh. "Because I know you two and I don't think you're interested in something like diamonds." Susie walks over to Hope and starts to look jewelry with her. Joey seems to keep an eye on them in hopes that Susie would find something she likes.
