A Soft Touch Far Away - (Stefanielle fanfic)

DOCTOR

Stefania's POV :

I woke up early to walk Jeff, letting Danielle and Charlotte sleep in.

When I came back, Danielle was in the living room drinking coffee.

"Hi my love." She said.

I kissed her sweetly.

"Is she still asleep ?"

"Yeah, she spent the night attached to me. I had to untangle her from me this morning." I laughed softly.

"I also called the doctor."

"For her stomachaches ?"

Danielle nodded.

"I have an appointment for the end of the afternoon."

"Don't you think she's going to freak out ?"

"I hope not. I'll be with her the whole time." She explained.

Danielle and I took breakfast together before she started gathering her things.

"I have to go pick Ford, he is with Macey."

"You come back after ?"

"Of course my love." She smiled and kissed me.

"Do you want to go to my house instead ? You both can walk there, fresh air will do her good."

"Yes of course !" I agreed, feeling happy being with Danielle every day.

When she opened the front door, she turned towards me.

"Are you okay with Charlotte ?"

"Yes, don't worry bella. We'll be fine." I nodded.

A few minutes later, a sleepyhead appeared at the door frame.

She swayed nervously, looking at me scrubbing her eyes.

"Hi bambina."

"Come here." I motioned for her to walk to me.

I immediately pulled her on my lap.

At first she struggled a little but soon relaxed in my arms.

"Did you sleep well ?"

"Yeah. I was comfy between you both."

"I'm glad to hear that."

Charlotte looked around her.

I understood what, or who she was looking for.

"Danielle went to take Ford. We have a little breakfast and we join her okay ?"

She hugged me tighter.

"You'll have to let go of me little koala." I joked.

She let go of my clothes so I could make slices of bread with jam.

I was proud of Charlotte when she managed to eat one and a half slices.

"Can you go get ready for the day ?" I asked the young girl.

"I- I don't have clothes." She confessed shyly.

"Sono stupida !" I exclaimed laughing.

"I'll give you something." I said taking her hand and leading her to my room.

"Do you want to wear a dress ? Some jeans ?"

"I don't have any dresses at home." She said looking down.

"Do you want to try one ?"

Charlotte nodded shyly.

I chose three dresses. A white one with cute laces, a purple one with flowers and a simple black short one.
