Forever More (ON HOLD)

Bonding Time

"Nooooo! Iron man, we must attack now!"

"I hear you captain America, but their force is too strong!"

Carter and I hid behind the couch while Loki (villain from the movie avengers) continued to shoot at us with his sword.

His facial expressions are so intense, you would think that we're in a real war.
"Iron man, cover my six, I'm gonna go in for the kill"

I nodded continuing to play along. I must admit that we're having a lot of fun. We've been playing this captain America game for what feels like hours and I'm dead tired. Elena told me that he loved captain America but I didn't think he loved it this much.

"Captain no!!" I yelled running after him. He ran away making shooting noises with his mouth. I smiled trying not to laugh, but he sounds so cute making those little noises.

I helped him out a little, making explosion noises myself, "oh no captain look out a bomb!"

I caught up to him scooping him up in the air, "oh no, captain you got hit by the explosion. Bewpewbdhd!" I made more explosion noises while plopping down on the couch with him and he laughed.

I laughed too panting. Man, having a child really is a full time job. We sat there together trying to catch our breaths.

"Daddy?"

"Yes Carter?"

"I'm hungry"

"Hungry? What would you like to eat?"

"Hummmm" I watched as he thought, his little hands resting under his chin. I smiled at the small gesture. He stood, running to the kitchen.

"Slow down, this old man can't keep up" I grunted while standing and following him into the kitchen. He grabbed a chair pulling it up towards the counter, he stood on top of the chair reaching the highest Cabinet and getting out some cereal.

I smiled, "do you always stand up on the chair like that?" He nodded

"Even when mommy is around?"

"No silly, mommy will yell at me" he stated as a matter of fact while placing the chair back where it belongs, "please don't tell mommy, it's the only way I can get my snacks" he pouted, poking his bottom lip out.

I grabbed two bowls out of the cabinet and two spoons out of the drawer, "I won't tell, on one condition"

He sat in the chair eagerly while I got the milk out and proceeded to pour us some Capin' crunch, "ask mommy next time okay? You can really hurt yourself doing that"

He sighed while grabbing a spoon and chewing eagerly, "okay"

"You promise?"

He nodded, "I promise" he held out his pinky and we shook pinkys.

We continued to eat our cereal while I made jokes now and again and continued to get to know him. Elena is currently at work and I told her that I would watch him for her. Surprisingly she agreed. She feels that we need more bonding time.

So far I know his favorite color is red, he loves captain America, he has a strange liking for school, which I think he got from Elena because I hated school. Ummmm lets see, he has a birth mark underneath his chin that's slightly darker than his skin and his two front teeth are just about ready to come out. There's a lot more that I can list but it'll take all night for me to list everything.
