I'm Coming Home (USUK Fanfic)

CHAPTER 3: Vacation

~~~Arthur's POV~~~

It was warm next to the fire and I could feel Amelia still leaning on me. I checked my watch and we had taken a 2hr nap. It felt like a wonder nap too. I got up, careful not to wake Amelia and made dinner. I could hear her wake up and she started giggling for some reason. "That child loves to laugh." She came around the corner and greeted me.

"Hi dad. What are you making?"

"Hello love. I'm making pasta."

"Yay! I love pasta! I bet Feliciana loves it more than me though. Haha!"

"Haha, she does love pasta quite a bit."

"Yeah, what kind of pasta we havin'?"

"We're having ravioli."

"Yum!"

"Haha, now go set the table, please."

"Okay!"

Amelia was so adorable setting the table. I was smiling and focusing on not burning supper. I finished and made our plates. Amelia squealed with joy and dug into her food. I rolled my eyes and chuckled. "You're such a silly girl." When we finished, she washed the dishes and I went upstairs and got ready for bed. I was taking off my shirt when Amelia ran in.

"Ah! I'm blinded for life!"

"You're calling me fat again, aren't you?!"

"No, you're just so pale!"

"I'm not that pale!"

"Dad, you're a piece of paper."

"I am not!"

"Yes, you are. At least your fit body makes up for your paleness. If I was older and not your daughter, I'd so want to go out with you."

I blushed and wondered why my daughter would think of me like that. I decided to mess around with her and try to creep her out.

"Huh? I look good? I thought you were insulting me just moments ago?"

"I was, but let me tell you dad, you're HOT.

"Oh yeah?" I walked over to her with my seductive look. "Am I a sexy hot?"

"Uhh... Yeah... I guess... You're kinda creeping me out..."

Looks like I succeeded."I just want to tell you one thing real quick." I stopped in front of her with my hands on my hips, still shirtless. I was waiting for her to respond.

"Uh... Okay... What is it?"

I got a big grin on my face before I replied.

"I'M SEXY AND I KNOW IT!" I was dancing saying this.

"Ah! OMG! Now I'm really blinded for life!"

"Haha! Teach you to think weird of your dad! Now get ready for bed. You got school in the morning."

"No, I don't! We're on winter break!"

"Heh, I know. I was hoping to trick you. You still need to go to bed though. We have to get up early in the morning."

"Huh? Why do we have to wake up early?"

"It's a surprise."

"Is the 'surprise' going to be fun?"

"Haha, yes! Now go to bed!"

"Okay!"

I sighed and shook my head. It can take her a long time to listen sometimes. I got in my sleep wear and waited for Amelia to fall asleep, so I could pack our bags.

"I think she's going to like this trip." I smiled thinking of what she'll look like.

~~~No one's POV~~~

Arthur's alarm went off and he quickly got all the suitcases packed in the car before he went to wake Amelia. She was VERY slow to getting up, but she got ready eventually. Arthur cooked some oatmeal for breakfast and put strawberries in Amelia's. She ate the food, very happy that there were strawberries in it. When they were both finished, Arthur washed the dishes and told Amelia to go wait in the car. She did as told and fell asleep in the car the second she sat down in it. Arthur came out and when he saw his daughter had fallen asleep, he laughed to himself and buckled her up. He couldn't blame her for being tired. It was 4:00am. Arthur put the car in reverse and headed toward the airport. They arrived to the airport at 5:10am and Amelia was still passed out. Arthur parked the car, grabbed the suitcases and woke up Amelia. She was still groggy, but she got out and looked around. Arthur handed Amelia her suitcase and she just stared at it.

"Where are we dad?"

"We're at the airport, love."

"Where we goin'?"

"It's a surprise, remember?"

"Oh yeah... Wait... We have to fly to the surprise?"

"Yup."

"Huh, alright. WAIT, WHAT?! We have to fly?! Where the heck are we going?!"

"I told you, I'm not telling."

Amelia was fully awake now and she was extremely curious to what the surprise was. Arthur urged her to follow him, so they could catch their flight. Arthur grabbed his phone and called someone, catching the attention of Amelia.

"Hey, we've arrived. Are you here yet? *person replying* Okay, we'll meet you there in a bit. Bye." Arthur hung up and began walking again.

"Who was that? Are we meeting someone here?" Amelia was looking at her father with curiosity in her blue orbs.

"You'll see when we get inside."

"Meh! I hate all these secrets!"

Arthur laughed and both walked inside the airport. Arthur got their tickets and they walked toward security. As they were walking, a voice called to them. It was Francis and Lily. Amelia gasped and ran up to Lily. Lily and Amelia were laughing and hugging.

"Why are you at the airport Amelia?" Lily asked this, still hugging Amelia.

"I could ask you the same thing! My dad said it was a surprise, so I don't know why."

"Wait, my father said it was a surprise as well." Both girls looked at each other than to their fathers. Both fathers were smiling at their daughters. Francis spoke up first.

"We're going to visit America my darlings and guess who we're going to see Lily?"

"*gasp!* Are we going to see papa?!" Lily started jumping, excitedly.

"Honhonhon, yes my darling!"

Lily ran and hugged Francis. Amelia turned toward Arthur and had a look of excitement.

"Does that mean we get to see uncle Matthew?!"

"Haha, yes love." Arthur was smiling and when Amelia went to hug him, he almost fell over. All of them stood there, laughing until an announcement came in the speaker.

"Gate C22 will be closing for departure to Denver, Colorado in 20mins."

All of them stared at each other, then bolted to go through security and then run to their gate. They all made it, 3mins before the gate closed.

"Th-that was a close call..." Francis remarked, out of breath.

"Yes, thank goodness we made it..." Replied Arthur.

Amelia and Lily started giggling to each other from the event and they boarded the plane, heading for the U.S.A.
