This side of bedtime, late that night

Tom's pov

I walk over to luc, and scoop her into my arms.

I tell her "c'mon. Leggo, babe. It's bedtime."

Luc pulls the pouty lip look, of course.

I know exactly why she does, also. She does it to maybe get out of bedtime. Not that it works. I walk upstairs with luc to the bathroom. She pouts, but has the good sense not to fight me. I deposit her on the toilet seat. I grab her toothbrush, and get it ready. Yes, I kind of baby luc a bit. Reason being that at night she becomes rather difficult. Like any 9 year old, she doesn't like bedtime.

I call "luc c'mere babe !"

She doesn't reply, I glance over and realize that my niece gave me the slip. She's vanished, well she'll wish she hadn't. I walk out of the bathroom, and downstairs. Luc is lying on the couch playing FIFA on jay's iPad. I prop a hand on my hip.

I warn "Lucy, get over here, now." She makes a mega mistake. Luc rolls her eyes at me.

She sasses "ya right, no. Whatever."

That's it. She's getting a swatted bare bottom. I storm over to luc and pull the iPad out of her grip. Luc pouts cutely. She gets picked up and tossed over my shoulder. I take luc back to the upstairs bathroom. I decide that we'll do this the easy way. I take luc off my shoulder, and set her on the ground. I figure that I'll do her teeth for her tonight, to make it easy. Normally she'd have to do it, I don't exactly trust her as of right now, though. I get her teeth brushed, then grab her hand. I take her to her room, take a seat on the bed, and drop everything. I pull luc over my knees, she gets twenty hard hard ones. I start and lecture ""we do not say whatever. We do not roll our eyes. We do not ignore bubba, and we most definitely do not try to run." I end it with three to the middle. Luc squeals.

I pull her into a cuddle.

Luc begs cutely "sing pease bubba ?"

I reply "sure, get in bed, babe. What song ?"

She requests "marvelous light, please bubba ?"

I nod and start singing "into marvelous light I'm running, out of darkness, out of shame. By the cross you are the truth, you are the life, you are the way. I once was fatherless, a stranger with no hope. Your kindness wakened me, awakened me from my sleep. Your love it beckons deeply, a call to come and die. By grace now I will come, and this life, take this life. Sin has lost it's power, death has lost it's sting, from the grave you've risen, victoriously -"

Luc starts singing "into marvelous light I'm running, out of darkness, out of shame. By the cross you are the truth, you are the life, you are the way. My dead heart now is Beating, my deepest stains now clean, your breath fills up my lungs, now I'm free. Now I'm free. Into marvelous light I'm running, out of darkness, out of shame. By the cross you are the truth you are the life, you are the way. Sin has lost it's power, death has lost it's sting, from the grave you've risen, victoriously ! Lift my hands and spin around, to see the light that I have found. Oh the marvelous light, marvelous light."

Luc yawns, and drifts off to la la land.

Well dang, I never knew luc could sing. Maybe I should tell jay ? I come to the conclusion that I shouldn't, if she wanted him to know, she'd have told him.
