Love At First Sight

Chapter 46

A couple of years go by...

(Delilah's at the toddler stage now)

Demi's POV

Since Justin got the Diamond Award on tour for his song "Baby" going twelve times platinum, his albums going number one all around the world, for being the biggest "Make A Wish" giver with  over two hundred wishes and for winning three Teen Choice Awards this year, we both came to a decision that we all go out to dinner to in order to celebrate his success, as well as spend family time with him and our daughter.

We all dressed fancily for the occasion and at around 6pm, Justin drove us to this really massive, and really fancy restaurant. There wasn't much paparazzi on the way there so that was okay. It really took my breath away as soon as I stepped inside the place. However, because it was so huge, and because there were a lot of people there, Justin and I weren't the first to be attended by a waiter.

We'd been waiting for like forty minutes now, when Delilah had started to become really agitated because she was hungry.

"Baby girl, come on, don't cry, be good now and I will give you ice cream for dessert." I tried to calm down my pretty girl, however, she had other things in mind.

"No, I want ice cream NOW!" Delilah yelled, kicking her feet up and down and slamming her little fists on the table.

"Shhh, Delilah. No, listen to me." Justin took her fists in his hands, looking around as everyone stared, "We don't act like that in public, Mommy said ice cream later, not now, so respect her choice, okay? In life, we don't always get what we want, but rather what we need; and what you need right now is to eat dinner first, all right?" Justin winked at me as Delilah calmed down.

Delilah was well behaved throughout the main meal and it was time for the desserts. The waiter came up to us and asked what we wanted.

"Just three small chocolate sundaes please, hold the sprinkles." I told him.

"Very well madam." The waiter said nodding before turning around and walking away.

I turned to Delilah. "Now princess, you've been a very good girl throughout the dinner, so you can have ice cream."

"Thank you Mommy." She said politely.

I saw Justin give her a stern look but not too stern that it would scare her. We were firm but fair when it came to our daughter. Okay that was a straight up lie, I'm a bit of a softie, Justin's the firm one.

"Delilah, as soon as you finish your ice cream, we're gonna go straight home and then you have to change into your pyjamas and brush your teeth, do you understand me?"

"Yes Daddy." She immediately replied and nodding, understanding her instructions. Delilah was very obedient at times, but she has her moments, just like earlier with her temper tantrum when she doesn't get what she wants. We don't spoil Delilah...well I don't think we do.

The waiter came back with our ice creams and the bill and Justin gave him the money for everything.

We ate and talked quietly amongst ourselves and not many people were taking a lot of notice. Maybe because they see us just acting like normal people and not like attention seekers, they just give us privacy.

"All done Daddy!" Delilah said, looking proud that she managed to finish her ice cream.

I saw Justin give her a thumbs up and I just smiled at her. I got a napkin from beside me and gave it to her to wipe her face. I don't think she got a lot of it in her mouth, more like on her face.

I held Delilah's hand and Justin grabbed Delilah's jacket as we exited the restaurant. There were a lot more paps than before so we had to be quick. I always reminded Delilah before we went out not to say anything to them if they asked her questions because they'll probably just twist her words and make its way into some stupid magazine. I just told her that they were strangers who liked to take a lot of pictures of very well known people like me and Justin and other celebrities.

Justin's POV

We got into the car and drove home. Once we arrived at home, I locked the door and hung up my coat. We all went upstairs and got changed and did our night routines.

"Daddy?!" I heard my daughter call.

"Yes Delilah?" I said going over to her room.

She was already in bed with her Minnie Mouse toy by her side.

"Can I get a goodnight kiss?" she said looking at me with innocent eyes.

"Goodnight Delilah." I say, kissing her forehead and let go of her hand.

"But Daddy wait!"

"Yes princess?" I ask her turning round.

"The monsters, they'll get me, make them leave, Daddy." she said panicked slightly. We've been through this monster phase but okay.

"Okay princess." I say bending down to look under the bed and used my hand to make a shooing motion.

"There, Del. The monsters are all gone." I say. "Now go to sleep, I love you." I start to walk away, when she calls me again.

"Wait...Daddy, can you tuck me in?" she asked and I obliged.

"Now seriously, go to sleep. I love you, princess." I told her.

"Okay Daddy, I love you too." she says before closing her eyes. I go and turn off the light and shut the door.

I go into the bedroom to see Demi curled up in a ball fast asleep. I pout my bottom lip at the adorable sight. I crawl into bed and put my arm over her waist and stay close to her. She turned around once she felt my arm touch her and cuddled up to me, wrapping herself around me. I shut my eyes and let myself drift into a peaceful sleep.

Did you guys like this one, it was kind of short but I hope it's ok :)
