Auriella-7

All that was heard in the Soleil family household early on a Saturday morning were almost soundless little giggles and soft patters of feet on the tiled floors as Auriella made her way to Azariah's room wanting to wake him up for the day. Of course Azariah heard her, I mean he was a trained secret agent after all, but he still faked asleep as he felt the little girl climb up onto his bed and slide into his blanket next to him cuddling up close. He felt her start to trace his facial features before prodding on his nose and moving onto his cheeks, as she was about to poke him again he caught her small fingers softly between his teeth hearing her let out a squeal pulling her hands away.

"Good morning Azzy." she smiled up at him

"Bonjour Chérie." He greeted, bringing her closer to him, cuddling her close, Rory coming and cuddling him in the mornings had become a daily routine and he adored it. He knew she spoke a bit of French but he was incorporating it into her daily life to help her learn and speak it fluently. "​​Avez-vous bien dormi?"
(Good morning Darling)
(Did you sleep well?)

"Oui, J'ai fait un bon rêve." This made Azariah ecstatic, both Alexander and Auriella had suffered from nightmares, but with them in a stable home and getting used to the new environment they were slowly reducing, but it made Riah feel better knowing his little girl had a good sleep.
(Yes, I had a good dream.)

The two just lay in Azariah's huge bed talking until he decided it was time to feed her breakfast, he was off work and there were no workers coming as it was a weekend. The two weren't doing anything at all today unlike Adriano and Alexander quite a busy schedule running around doing errands and such. But Riah and Rory were having a slow day, something that doesn't come often to the Soleil's.

Walking downstairs still in their pyjamas, the two just made two bowls of cereal and settled down in front of the TV to watch whatever was playing on Disney channel before they actually had to get dressed. After a while of this the two decided to get ready for the day.

"So Princess, what would you like to wear today?" he questions, holding her with one arm and digging through her clothes with the other. He lets her pick out her own clothes seeing how much she loves it, she had the time of her life shopping for her wardrobe and if that was all it took to make her happy Azariah would let her do it for the rest of her life.

Picking out a cream dress lets her get dressed before braiding her hair, twisting it into a bun at the nape of her head. "So what are we doing today, Princess?" he asks, pinning the last bit of hair in place. Ella lifts her eyes up and bites the tip of her pointer finger, her thinking face. Before looking back at him, eyes ablaze.

"Can we bake? Please, please, please, please." She pouts and looks at him with doe eyes, it was at that moment Azariah realises that if this child keeps looking at him like that he could never deny her anything, he would deliver the world on a silver platter to her.

Baking was something Auriella had read about but never done. A while ago she had found an old recipe book and was fascinated with how people could mix certain things into a bowl then add heat and get a whole different thing. She had pretty much eaten the same thing for as long as she could remember, she didn't even know what it was, just that it was colourless and was bland.
