Baby Clifford

A Little Date

Melody had lied in her note when she said she was heading over to Ryan's. She was truly going to Danny's. His mum was going to be away at work until late night, so they had all the privacy they wanted.

Danny and Melody laid on the couch in the complete peaceable of cuddling and watching Deadpool. Danny rubbed her cramped up tummy under the blanket and kissed her head from time to time. On occasion, Danny head Melody whisper some quotes from the movie. She felt safe in his arms and felt secure when she felt his lips kiss her temple or cheek. She could barely keep her eyes open as Deadpool found Francis. "Go ahead. You can go to sleep." Danny whispered into her ear.

Melody gently closed her eyes and snuggled into Danny's strong, protective body closer. "Sweet dreams, little MJ." Melody hummed at the nickname, "Night, night bubby." She mumbled and fell asleep. Danny made shapes on her stomach and slowly fell asleep himself.

Melody woke cold and to an empty couch, other than the blanket on her. She frowned and grabbed the bear, that was still unnamed and set it on her lap. Melody sighed and cracked her back. "I guess it's just you and me. Could you be my cuddle buddy, hmm? Maybe that's what I should name you, Cuddles." She thought about it then laid down and cuddled him. "Yeah, you're a Cuddles." Melody added.

"Hey little cutie, did you sleep well? I thought we could eat dinner before we started the next movie." Danny walked into the room with bowls of white mac-&-cheese. "What time is it?" Melody rubbed her eyes. "Five-thirty." Danny answered and put the bowls with forks on the coffee table in front of them before sitting next to her. Melody laid her head on his shoulder. "Tired still?" Danny asked, rubbing her shoulder. She nodded. Danny took his bowl and started eating. "You can go back to sleep if you want to." Danny told her. "No, otherwise I'll wake at eight and be pissy cause I'm hungry." She stated and grabbed the bowl. Then looked at her phone, Five New Messages. She unlocked her phone and went to her messages.

From Dad: Are you coming home tonight?

From Dad: Please don't be ignore me. :(

From Dad: Baby girl, answer me. Please.

From Dad: At least tell me you're okay.

From Dad: Okay. I'll leave you alone now.

To Dad: Sorry, I just woke up. I'll be home later tonight and I'm eating here.

She replied and locked her phone. "Who was that?" Danny asked. "Just my dad. Wanted to make that I was okay and if I was going home or not." Melody answered and began to eat her mac&cheese. "So um, prom is coming up." Danny changed the subject. "So?" Melody shrugged, she wasn't a big fan of those things. "I thought girls got excited about that kind of shit." Danny said, "Like isn't it something they dream about other than their wedding?" He added. "You forget, I dreamed of Spider-man saving me and my dad never leaving for tour again. I'm not a typical girl. I had to deal with shit that fans didn't think of when they make stupid fanfiction on being 5SOS's kid. God if they knew some days." She shook her head. "Anyways, I might go, but I'm not having sex after it like how most prom nights end." She stated. "I think you're family would kill me with a sledgehammer going up my ass if I did." Danny chuckled. She laughed at him and nodded before taking another bite of mac&cheese.

"Better than Vince's family though. They'll send you to a holy school." Melody chuckled. "Speaking of Vince, do you think he...um...switched lanes?" Danny asked. "What do you mean?" She replied. "Him being bi." He mentioned. Melody thought about it then nodded. "We wouldn't hear from him again if he opened up about it. His parents would send him to a mental place. I remember I got scolded at for eating dinner without saying grace or whatever it is. They nearly made me say so many prayers too." Melody grumbled. "Come on, they're religious, give them a break they were trying to save you from hell." Danny gave them sympathy. "That's why Vince is too afraid to do shit sometimes." She stated. "Melody, stop it. You're being unfair. They just want best for them." Danny encountered. "Whatever, but that's why I don't stay the night or eat their." She shrugged. "Understandable." Danny gave to her.

Melody put in HellBoy and then went back into Danny's arms. "I like your arms. They have the mix of protection and cuddles." She lightly laughed. He laughed with her. Then as the flashback part happened, Melody started crying. "Hey, what's wrong?" Danny gently asked. "I don't know!" Melody cried. "I hate my mother of a bitch." Melody mumbled and hid her face in his chest. "Is that what you call it?" Danny asked, trying not to chuckle. "No, that's what I call Luke, yes that's what I call it!" She declared. He kissed her forehead, "You are an adorable, sassy girl." He cooed. "You better call me good things like that." Melody spoke. "I'll even do it willingly, MJ." Danny whispered into her ear. "You're too good for me." Melody replied in a whisper. "You're perfect for me." He whispered. "Bullshit," she commented. He kissed her, "I'll never bullshit with you, Melody Anastasia. Trust me on that one." Danny stayed. "We'll see about that Danny William." She answered then kissed him again. "We'll see that I'm being honest." He whispered and kissed her cheek then lips. "You think that," she whispered. "I know that." He mentioned. "Let's get back to the movie." Danny commented and Melody nodded before slowly rotating.

When the movie ended, Melody asked Danny what time it was. "7:30," he answered after looking at his phone. "One more, then I gotta head home." Melody replied. "What movie?" Danny asked. She thought, "Princess and the Frog," she answered. "Really, Disney, Melody?" Danny snickered. "Oh shut up, Ryan! The movie gives me an excuse to cry." Melody exclaimed. "Don't call me, Ryan, you bad child." Melody laughed at him and pressed play as he came back to her.

"I think at one point when I was little, I asked my dad if my mom was his Evangeline. I think he said yes." Melody mentioned as Ray talked about his star lover. "That's sweet." Danny said, kissing her temple.

She must have fell asleep again as Danny woke her up. "Melody, it's nine, I'll take you home." Danny said. "No, I told Dad I went to Ryan's. I'll walk." She said and started walking out of the house. "Wait!" She stopped at the front door. "You were going to go without a goodnight kiss." He pouted like a child. She leaned up and kissed him. "Okay, now I really have to go. Goodnight Danny." She rushed and briskly walked home.

"Hey Melody, how was Ryan's?" Michael asked from the couch. "It was fun. His mum made her famous mac&cheese." Melody answered. "I should've came with, I love that woman's mac&cheese." Michael spoke. She shrugged and felt her blood leave her body and the cramps coming. "God, I hate life." She whispered. "What did you just say?" Michael exclaimed. "Not like that!" Melody threw back at him and grabbed her heat-pad and put it in the microwave. "Dad, where's that red blanket?" She asked. "In your closet." He ans answered. "Could you get it for me, please?" Melody pleaded and shook the heat-pad, feeling the pain in her stomach. Michael unglued his eyes from the TV then, "Why can't you get it?" Melody took a big breath. "Dad, you don't want to argue with me this week." She warned and placed the heating-pad under her shirt onto her stomach. Michael instantly got up and ran to her room. Melody lightly smiled and went to her room and moved the comforter to the side and curles onto the sheets. Michael pouted at her before laying the blanket on her. She pulled the comforter on her. "Try to sleep tight." Michael whispered and pulled the covers higher on her. "Thanks Dad," Melody whispered and closed her eyes. "Love you baby girl." Michael replied. "Love you too." Melody mumbled. "I'll leave you alone now." Michael left the room.

Melody grabbed her bag that was on the floor beside her bed, and took out the bear that Danny gave her and cuddled it. "Goodnight Cuddles." She whispered before going to sleep.
