Charlotte's POV
"Mommy can you do my hair pretty?" I asked pulling off my dress.
"Of course."
"Can you curl it?" I asked, climbing into the bath.
"You want me to curl it?"
"Yes I want curls mommy, like you." I loved my mommy's hair so much.
"Hmmm, I guess I can do that." She said kissing the top of my head.
"Good."
"Now don't be long." She told me walking to the door. "I'm going to get ready."
I nodded, grabbing the soap. I wouldn't be long, not at all, my nona was home and I couldn't wait to see her. I wanted to feel her hugs, she gave the best hugs, but most of all I wanted to tell her about my mommy and daddy because I know she'll be as happy as I am.
"What's doing?" Daddy asked walking in.
"What does it look like daddy?" He was silly.
"I don't know Charlotte." He said rolling his eyes. "That's why I asked."
I was giggling, he was funny sometimes. "What you doing daddy?"
"I." He said, looking in the cabinet. "Am going to have a shave. Do you need a shave?"
"No I do not need a shave."
"Hmmm." He said, looking in the mirror. "Are you sure?"
"Yes I am sure. I don't have whiskers silly." I told him.
"Well if you say so."
I sat in the bath watching daddy shave until mommy came in.
"Hurry up if you want me to curl your hair." She said to me. "And is not wearing a shirt a new thing?" She asked daddy.
"Do you have a problem with it?" He asked her, pulling her into his arm's and kissing her.
I laughed, I couldn't help it, mommy had shaving cream all over her face.
"Honestly Matthew." She groaned, wiping her face.
I smiled. It was so good seeing my mommy and daddy happy again.
"Come on." Mommy said holding out a towel.
I climbed out, letting mommy dry me. I know I was a big girl, but sometimes it felt nice letting mommy do things for me, sometimes I liked to feel like a baby.
"Now, go put your dress on and I'll find the curling iron."
I nodded, running out of the room laughing because daddy was trying to grab mommy and he was making kissy faces at her with the shaving cream still on his face.
I quickly grabbed my dress and pulled it on. It was pretty. It was my favorite and pink, pink was my favorite color, then I went back into the bathroom.
I stopped at the door sighing. They were doing it again. Kissing.
"Mommy."
She smiled at me and told daddy to go and get dressed and then I sat there while she curled my hair.
"There." She told me.
I looked in the mirror. I looked so pretty and I looked like mommy.
"Come on." Daddy called.
Mommy rolled her eye's at me. "Go, I'll be down in a minute."
Daddy and I waited downstairs, mommy's minute seemed a long time but as usual, when she came down she looked beautiful and I smiled because daddy told her so.
The drive to Nona's seemed to take forever but finally we were here and I opened the car door, running up the path.
"Charlotte." Mommy called but Nona already opened the door.
"Bambina." She yelled holding out her arms.
I ran into them, hugging her tightly. "I missed you nona."
"Nona missed you too baby." And she covered my face in kisses.
I looked at Nona, she looked just like Aunt Sophie only old but she was most definitely my favorite person ever.
I watched as she hugged my daddy and then my mommy and I heard her whisper to mommy. "It's nice to see you smile again."
"Come in." She said smiling. "As usual Sophia is late, I'm not surprised."
We went inside and sat down. I climbed on to Nona's lap and cuddled her. I just missed her so much.
"How was your trip?" Mommy asked but before she could answer there was a lot of noise outside.
"One guess who that is?" Nona said laughing.
She was right. It was Aunty Sophie, Uncle Brian and the girls. I let Gabby share Nona with me because I knew she loved Nona just as much as I did, Addie on the other hand, well she just climbed into my mommy's lap, kissing her face. I don't know, my mommy and Addie really liked eachother, alot.
"Ready?" Uncle Brian asked Mommy and daddy.
They nodded, standing up, mommy still had Addie.
"Come to Nona." Nona said, holding out her arms.
"No." Addie said, hanging on to my mommy.
"I swear." Aunty Sophie said, pulling Addie off my mom. "She loves you more than me."
We watched as they left, I don't know who was the saddest, Addie who kept crying. "Aunty Ana." Over and over or my mommy who was looking at her and then rushing back to kiss her face again, looking like she might cry too.
Finally they were gone and we could have fun with nona. Nona let us eat whatever we wanted and do whatever we wanted.
"Are you happy about mommy and daddy?" She asked handing me a big bowl of ice cream.
"Very Nona." I said, shoving a spoonful into my mouth.
"Ana." Addie whimpered and Gabby looked at me rolling her eyes. "Shhh baby." Nona said hugging her.
It didn't take long and Addie had cried herself to sleep, so Gabby and I got ready to look at all of Nona's photographs.
"I hope your parents are having fun." Nona said, sitting down. "I wonder what they're doing?"
"Probably wrestling." Gabby said.
She was right of course. They were probably all wrestling together.
