As promised over the rest of the day the boys helped me learn how to use the phone, the airpods and the iPad, I've got the gist of the simple things to do on these things.

Of course, the boys put in their phone numbers as well as Papa's.

Currently, I'm laying in bed attempting to fall asleep, the phone on the bedside table vibrates, I unlock it and look at the notifications, I can't help but giggle at the names I have their contacts saved as Dumbass #1 is Ally because he's older, Dumbass #2 is Niki.

Little Daisy has been added to the group chat:

Dumbass #1: Oh Wwwiiilllloooooowwwwww

Dumbass #2: I know you're not sleeping

Dumbass #1: How do you know that idiot?

Dumbass #2: Because I'm a fucking physic

Me: What do yous want?

Dumbass #2: Ouch, are we not allowed to text our baby sister?

Dumbass #1: You probably woke her up fuckhead

Dumbass #2: DON'T SWEAR IN FRONT OF THE BABY

Dumbass #1: YOU DID JUST BEFORE SHE REPLIED

I roll my eyes as the messages appear, such dumbasses, but my dumbasses

Me: goodnight boys

Dumbass #1: goodnight маргаритка (daisy)

Dumbass #2: goodnight маленький цветок (little flower)

It's been just over a week since our shopping trip, the boys had to go back to work and Papa has told me to pack a suitcase for a few days, to say Niki and Ally were pissed was an understatement.

FLASHBACK

"what do you mean she leaving us?!" Niki exclaims across the dinner table, "Jesus Christ, it's for 2, 3 days max" Papa responds running his hands through his hair, "Who are we supposed to annoy now?" Ally questions folding his arms over his chest, "each other" Papa responds again.

"Were coming" Ally tries, "Like hell, you two are, you're lucky your asses weren't banned last time" Papa scolds, "It's not my fault Niki got blackout drunk and tried to climb into the octagon!" Ally almost pleads, "You both have important meetings to attend to, and you have a gym to run. The decision is final" Papa sighs

END OF FLASHBACK

I look over the few clothes I have packed, most of them being comfortable, Papa told me to pick out some nice dresses and shoes for the event, the cuts on my thigh have healed pretty nicely, only faint scars and scabs now appear in the area, so I pick some short dresses and some high heels, I have been practising walking in during the week so I don't look like a baby deer, the last thing I want to do is embarrass Papa.

Once I'm happy with the clothes and shoes I picked I grab some shower and hygiene items shoving them into my bag also, just as I'm zipping up my suitcase Papa knocks on the door poking his head in, "You ready?" I nod my head and stand up as he comes in and grabs my suitcase for me "I can do that" I respond trying to take it from him, "I know, you just don't have too" He shrugs before walking out with it, I smile at his actions and words before making sure I had my blade on me.

I know I probably won't need it, but it's comforting to know it's on me. Ally and Niki had already said their goodbyes this morning before leaving for work, so Papa and I drove straight to the airport, we went back on the plane I had come home on. "Is this yours?" I finally ask as we begin to take off, "It is indeed, do you like it?", I nod my head as he smiles, satisfied with my answer.

Papa explains to me that it is a 5-and-a-half hour flight from New York to Las Vegas and that we will be landing at 4 pm, tonight is just a dinner with his colleagues, tomorrow is the event which runs all day, and the day after we can either go home or explore Las Vegas a little. Papa pulls out his computer and starts typing away furiously so I pull out my iPad and apple pen, trying to think of something to draw. I stare at Papa, maybe I'll just draw him.

I was so into the drawing that I didn't notice food and drinks placed in front of us until Papa spoke, "полевой цветок (wildflower) make sure you eat something" Papa hums looking over his glasses at me, I nod my head and grab a piece of sandwich slowly eating it as I continue to draw.

It's only when I finish my drawing and look up do I realise that Papa is no longer on his computer but is watching me with a soft smile, I give him a smile back, a little embarrassed I zoned out so hard.

"What has had you so occupied полевой цветок (wildflower?)" He hums, I bite down on my lower lip looking back at my finished drawing, what if he finds it weird... "I-Ive been drawing" I begin, "What have you been drawing?" He asks tilting his head to the side, well it's now or never willow, "You, Papa" I respond in almost a whisper, at first he looks taken back before he reaches his hand out over the table, "Well, show me what you think your old man looks like" He smiles gesturing for me to hand the iPad over.

I almost throw it at him due to nerves and sit myself up straight waiting for his response, his face remains neutral as he takes his time looking over the drawing, I can feel my heart in my ass, does he hate it? he hates it, doesn't he? Stupid willow, stupid stupid stupid.

His face finally breaks out in that beautiful smile of his and my anxiety disappears instantly, "You've made me look 20 years younger!" He almost cheers, "This is how you always look Papa". He passes the iPad over to me with a proud look in his eyes, "You my полевой цветок (wildflower) are a natural artist, it's perfect".

Hearing his praise makes my chest swell with pride "Thank you Papa" I replied somewhat sheepishly.
