"Michael, hurry up!" Samantha shouted through their apartment while she stood at the front door with Calum and waited for Michael to get Maya ready to go out with him.

"We're coming!" Michael shouted back, lying. He was still looking for a pair of shorts and a t-shirt for Maya that she wouldn't refuse to put on. "Do you want to wear a dress?" Michael questioned, his face still buried in her closet.

"No." Maya folded her arms over her chest and shook her head from where she sat right behind Michael on the foot of her bed. "I want shorts."

"Okay, okay." Michael sighed, kneeling down in front of the closet and starting to look for her favourite pair of shorts. "I can't find them." He said through a groan once he gave up, Maya's closet was a mess all the time.

Maya made a pouting face once Michael glanced back at her over his shoulder. Soon after she jumped off the bed and walked towards Michael, hugging her arms around his neck from behind and placing her chin on his shoulder.

"What is it?" The touch of Maya's small hands made Michael giggle, as he put her hands away and placed her down on his lap.

"I want to stay home with you." Maya said, looking up at Michael once she practically laid herself in his lap, stretching her legs out and rocking her feet up and down.

"You can't." He answered through a small chuckle. Michael was so proud when Maya liked him more than Calum although Calum did the best to win her love. "Daddy's got to go to work and Mommy is visiting grandma." He explained, brushing her hair back as he ran a hand over her forehead to the roots of her dark hair.

Maya just looked up at him and pouted until she glanced to the side where her open closet was and jumped off of Michael. "Daddy, my shorts!" She screamed, quickly picking them up and putting it on since she was the whole time in her underwear.

"Yay." Michael cheered, standing up to help Maya put her grey cotton shorts on. She climbed on the bed and waited for Michael to tie the elastic on top of her shorts. "So." He said smoothing her t-shirt out a bit. "Go get Mommy put your shoes on and you are good to go." He added once Maya jumped from the bed and he gave her a small push towards the hall.

"Uncle Calum!" She screamed before she bumped into his legs and hugged them.

"Oh, hey sweetie." Calum chuckled, bending down and picking her up in his arms.

"Michael, bring Maya her jacket if it gets cold outside." Samantha shouted while Calum and Maya disscused whether or not Calum's nose is looking funny.

Calum looked at her almost disgusted. Since he didn't have to spend all his time with Maya and with taking care of her he couldn't understand how Samantha could get so annoyed with her sometimes. He didn't know that despite all the hard times both Michael and Samantha loved her more than anything in the world. Calum just couldn't understand it.

"And where are her shoes, huh?" Samantha put a hand on her hip when Michael brought her Maya's jacket.

"You didn't tell me to bring you her shoes." Michael defended himself, groaning.

"Is she supposed to walk bare foot?" Samantha shouted at him, causing Calum to look at them almost terrified. He's never seen them fight this much about something simple as shoes.

"Yes, she is!" Michael yelled at her before he turned around on his heels and headed to the living room knowing exactly where he'd find Maya's shoes.

"It's okay, I can carry her to the car there's a pair of her shoes at my place." Calum shouted, letting Michael know that he didn't need to look for the shoes, but Michael wanted to and he wasn't going to give in now that he's already been kneeling in front of the couch and reaching his arm under it.
