Nathan's pov

Lucy and I are so bored. The guys are at a meeting with management. Lucy was feeling sick, she didn't wanna go. I volunteered to stay home with her. Lucy comes up to me.

"Can we play tag ? I'm so bored."

"Si, Chiquita. Por supuesto."

" fabuloso ! Gracias, tio Nathan !"

"De nada, Chiquita." Lucy takes off running, and the tag war is so on ! I chase Lucy through the house, and up the stairs. She darts back down them, though. I'm panting by the time I get back down the stairs. Lucy is waiting for me. As soon as she sees me, she takes off. Lucy runs into the living room. I catch up, but I'm not quick enough. I put on an extra burst of speed, once I realize what she's heading for. That's when I hear the thud, followed by a pain filled

"Owwie !" I run into the living room, only to see that Lucy's run into the bookcase. It's fallen on her. I lift the bookcase off my niece, and she wriggles out from under it. I pick her up, and thank The Lord that I took emergency life saving classes in high school. The only downside is that Lucy is crying too hard to tell me what hurts. I lay Lucy flat on the floor, then I start my own examination. I run my hands over her shoulders, and down her arms. Nothing appears to be broken there. Next I run my hands down her spine. Thank you Lord. Her spine is fine. If it wasn't, then she might be wheel chair bound. I finish my examination by pressing two fingers to the inside of her wrist, and taking her pulse. Her pulse is racing. That's to be expected though, her body just went through one heckuva shock. My next order of business is to calm her racing pulse. I do this the way our teacher showed us to. Grabbing the quilt off the back of the couch, I swaddle Lucy in it. Much the same way you'd use with a baby. I pick Lucy up, and take a seat on the couch with her. I start to sing a song that she really likes. It isn't one of ours. I'm almost positive that it's called "amazing love."

"I'm forgiven, because you were forsaken. I'm accepted, you were condemned. I'm alive and well, your spirit dwells within me, because you died and rose again. I'm forgiven, because you were forsaken. I'm accepted, you were condemned. I'm alive and well, your spirit dwells within me, because you died and rose again.

Amazing love, how can it be ? That you, my king, should die for me ? Amazing love, I know it's true. It's my joy to honor you, in all I do, I honor you. Amazing love, how can it be ?

That you my king would die for me ?

Amazing love, I know it's true. It's my joy to honor you, in all I do, I honor you. You are my king. Jesus, you are my king. You are my king. Amazing love, how can it be ? That you my king, should die for me ? Amazing love, I know it's true. It's my joy to honor you. In all I do, I honor you."

I finish the song, and Lucy's pulse quits racing. I lay her on the couch, then get a broom. I want to clean up the broken picture frame before the guys get home. I'd rather not get in trouble. We've been told that we aren't allowed to play tag in the house. I get the glass cleaned up and disposed of. After that, Lucy helps me put the books back.

Lucy's pov

Dang, bookcases are heavy. The one that fell on me must have been really heavy, but uncle Nathan was able to get it off of me. He also got the broken glass cleaned up. Who knew ?

My uncle knows how to clean up glass. Man, he must be really smart.

He also knows emergency life saving techniques. My uncle is a jack of all trades. I'll quit bragging about tio Nathan, now. One more then I'm done. He's fabulous. That's all I've got, though. Yes, I do kind of hero worship mi tio Nathan.

Nathan's pov

We get most of the books cleaned up before the guys come back. The only thing that we don't get cleaned up is the stuff that fell behind the case. I didn't know it was there, but now I do. I just hope no one notices. My hopes fade like that, though. Siva walks in.

Siva's pov

I come in the house, Nathan and babylove are cuddling on the couch. I get the feeling that something's up. I walk over to the bookcase, where I know I left my phone, accidentally.

It isn't there. I glance at Nathan.

"Hey, nath ?"

"Yes ?"

"Have ya seen my phone ?"

"No. I haven't."

The thing about Nathan is he can't lie. He can't look you in the face and tell you. This almost always gets him screwed. He just flat out can't lie. It's kinda funny, actually. Lucy can't lie either, she stammers. I give Nathan a warning glare.

I reiterate "Nathan Ryan. I know you just lied to me. Have you seen my phone ?" Nathan won't look at me. I know without a doubt that I've just been lied to. I give him a deadly glare.

He looks at me guiltily. He's realized that he is busted. I point up the stairs. Nathan goes up with out a word. Man, why'd I have to leave my phone at home ? The guys and I left for our meeting this morning I, of course, left my phone at the house. I was forced to come get it, so that I can make calls. I came home to get it, and now I have to find it and go deal with Nathan. What a crazy day ! I find my phone and a bunch of stuff behind the bookcase. That's when what had to have occurred hits me. I bet Nathan and babylove were playing tag in the house, otherwise how would all that stuff have fallen behind the

bookcase ? I look at babylove, who's lying on the couch. She looks so innocent. Adopting a semi stern tone, I tell her "babylove. Go upstairs." She complies immediately. I follow a few minutes later. I go to Nathan's room first. I walk in and he's already bent over. Smart boy. I pull my belt off.

"You get thirty, buddy."

"Not so many, please !"

"I can add more, Nathan."

He shuts up, right quick. I tell him

"Hands." He puts his hands on his back, I pin them there. I start without warning. Nathan's sobbing by the time I get to thirty. I toss my belt down then pull him into a hug. Nathan hides his face in my shoulder, sobbing. He eventually falls asleep, and I lay him down for a nap. I then leave to go deal with Lucy.

Lucy's pov

Uncle siva walks into my room, and he's got a belt. My eyes go wide. He can't possibly plan on using that can he ? I sure hope not. He points to the bed.

"Lucy. bend. NOW." I do as told, but I'm still unwilling. Uncle siva has sympathy in his tone, he informs me

"Lucy, I had hoped you wouldn't ever earn this, but you have. You're gonna get twelve."

He continues "hands." I place my hands on my back, and he pins them there. Uncle siva starts. They aren't as hard as I thought they'd be. He lays down all twelve, quickly. After he finishes, he pulls me into a hug. I fall asleep cuddled against him.
