Daydreamer: An Adele Fanfic

Chap. 14 Babysitting

Adele's POV
After crying and crying and more crying, we realized that Maria still had a babysitting job. We sprinted to my car and hightailed it over to the clients house. We walked up the steps and rang the doorbells.
"Hey Mr. G!" Maria said to a man with blonde hair and blue eyes. "This is Adele, she kinda showed up at my house today. Anyways, she is going to help me take care of little Danny. She's quite qualified, she has her own kid."
"I'm sure she is Maria, come on in. Mrs. G will be out in a minute. My name is James Gehm, but you can call me Jimmy, or Mr. G if you like. I taught Maria for two years and then became the principal at her school last year. It's a pleasure to meet you, Adele."
"Oh the pleasure is all mine. Now tell me, how was Maria at school? I asked, adding in a wink.
"Oh she was a real trouble maker, pretty much in my office everyday." Mr. G responded with a twinkle in his eye. I could tell Maria was a favorite of his.
"I thought so!" I added, and the proceeded to cackle.

Maria's POV
I knew Mr. G was just teasing, he always does.
"So, Mrs. G and I will be out for a few hours and decided it would be easier to leave the baby home. Plus we know Maria has been dying to babysit. Well, we will see you both later, don't hesitate to call if there is a problem, but I don't think there will be with such a dynamic duo." And with that, it was just myself, Adele, and little Danny. I walked over to his playpen to pick him up and hold him for awhile. Adele just sat on the couch and watched us. I sat down next to her and Danny started to get fussy. I knew what would fix it, but I was slightly embarrassed to ask.
"Hey, um" I said while trying to rock Danny, "we had a basketball party a couple of months ago and I was talking to Mrs. G and she said that um whenever she turns on well you that Danny calms down."
"So basically your asking me to sing?" Adele asks, seemingly amused.
"Well I uh I mean you don't have to if you don't want to!" I stammer out.
"Anything for little Danny!" She exclaims, "what shall I sing?"
"Hmmm, something soft and ballady. How about Daydreamer?" I say, trying not to sound like I've been waiting for this my whole life. She begins and of course it's flawless, I can barely hold it together. I keep rocking Danny and he settles down within a minute or two. The rest of the babysitting job is pretty uneventful, except for a diaper change or two.
