🧋 ~ Chapter 16 ~🧋

"Daddy noo! Want dis one!" I hold the most tiniest fluff ball i have ever seen. His big black beady eyes glistening as he takes in my appearance above him.

"Who've you got there little one?" His deep voice sends shudders up my small spine and i let out a squeak like a hammy!

"Ive never seen him this calm!" A high pitched voice comes from the left. "It looks like he really likes you!" I look over and see a boy around my age in the pet area sage green uniform. I notice a cute little dangly mushroom plush hanging from his belt!

"I-i um.. i-i-i-II- lik-like-" tears spring into my eyes as i try to compliment his plushy but I struggle to get the words out.

"You can do it baby," daddy coos and rests his hand on my back, sliding it down to my thigh and pressing a kiss on my red flushed in embarrassment cheek.

"I like you-r-r m-mushroom! D-did you know that mushrooms can tawlk to each other because they are all connected under the ground? S-some can also glow in the dark!..."

"I um... I didn't know that!" He smiles brightly, washing away the worry that quickly settled in my chest as soon as i bursted out with facts.

"Are you gonna name this little hamster 'mushroom' then?" He smiles but i quickly shake my head.

"Of course not!" I giggle. "Ill name him Dough Ball!" I bring up the small thing to my lips and lay a gently kiss on its head. The little hammy circles around in my hands and i cup him not too tight but enough for him to feel safe.

"What a cute name! Owh that's so perfect for him, hm isn't it little Dough Ball~" he leans down and stokes between his ears with his finger gently. The hammy lets out a squeak and cowers in my hands, the boy moves back his finger and and i quickly begin to stroke down my hammy's silky back, watching his fur ripple from his dough colour to a paler shade underneath. He calms after a few fluffing and begins to explore around my hands, trying to scramble onto my wrists and up my arms. I giggle loudly at the tickling sensation he brings as he then climbs up my cardigan and sniffs at my collarbone. I feel his dainty little whispers gently touching my collarbone, making me scoop him up and press him to my cheek. I can still feel his dainty whiskers on my skin but he soon stops moving and all i can feel is his minuscule sweet breaths pressing against my face from his rising and slowly falling body.

Daddy says dat i come bak for hammy later! How rude is dat? Very rudes in mies opinion. >:( hmph

"Stop sulking, we need to buy you your snacks, clothes and toys before we can get hammy. How do you think he would feel being rattled around in a box for an hour and a half?" Daddy snaps and his grip on my hand tightens. I clench my jaw and look down to the floor as we walk along, me trying to keep up with his big strides and not drag my shopping bag on the floor at the same time.

"Daddy stop!" I cry out but he keeps on walking as i fumble over my own feet relentlessly.

"DADDY!" I scream as i fall to the floor, my arm being yanked up and my head crashing down. My forehead bangs onto the floor and pain soars to the area, it takes me a moment to realise what happened before wails start coming out of my busted mouth, blood dribbling from my split lip onto my tongue. I cringe at the salty taste and let go of my shopping bag as daddy lifts me up, cooing and apologising to me as i hug onto his shoulders. 'Daddy no hates mees, he no angwy anymore.' I think to myself and sink deep into his hold, love filling me and my longing for his touch. My cries echo in the open area of the mall and daddy kisses the top of my head as he lulls me in his arms. Im repositioned like a baby just one of his arms before im placed down into his lap once we'd sit down.

Daddy takes a minute to fish out a plaster with Totoro on the front and places it on my banged head gently.

"I know it won't do much but it will protect it from any other boo boos ok?" He kisses below my ear and on the point of my softly arched jawline.

He then leans down and starts to lick at my split lip, i jolt back a little in surprise and carefully watch him, his eyes trained on my expression and his warm tongue stinging against my open wound until it seals.

"Isn't it amazing little bunny? The power of mates!" He smiles and i touch softly at my lip to find there is no more blood, or even a painful feeling. My eyebrows raise a little before a soft smile makes it way onto my face as well as a softly tinted blush on the apples of my cheeks.

Without looking up at daddy i slowly reach out for his neck to hang onto. He leans forwards and gently rubs at my bare thighs with his warm hands, warmth bursting from them and making me feel ever so safe.

"Come on baby sloth, where should we go next?" I shrug and peep open my eyes when he begins to walk.

"Let's get you some clothes." He decides and hums to himself in agreement. I simply close my eyes and nuzzle his open neck, my eyes drooping into a close as my body is lulled side to side by Daddy walking.
