~Chapter 12~
-SKYLARS P.O.V-
Today is Halloween and the past month has been amazing. The new house was our home now. The business has been blowing up with customers and clients wanting designs for the fall season. Hunter has been working in the studio each day and he would bring Natalie with him, and she would sit and mess with little instruments Hunter would give her, she absolutely loved music. Everything was functional and right, though I knew it wouldn't always be. As I walk out of the shower and get dressed in a white sweater and black leggings I pull my hair up in a wet messy bun and I run down the stairs and into the kitchen. I find Hunter making breakfast and Natalie in her high chair covered in pancakes and syrup. "So you make breakfast, but fail to watch her eat?" I ask laugh and I wipe of her face and she giggles and eats another chunk of pancake. "I swear shes only eating messily for you! She was fine before!" Hunter says and I laugh at her, giving up on trying to clean her face. "She's gonna make me crazy when she gets older won't she?" I say as I walk next to Hunter and he hands me a plate with pancakes on it and he nods and kisses me lightly. "I want crazy." "Not that kind of crazy." "Okay, then I want you, no matter how crazy." Hunter says and I laugh at him and he kisses me again, slower this time. "Are we gonna walk with her to get candy?" I ask and Hunter nods. "Maybe for a few hours in town but shes little still." He says and I nod. "That works." I say and Hunter smiles. "So what is she gonna be?" Hunter asks and I smile. "She has an obsession over Tinkerbell so I was thinking her." "By thinking you mean you already bought a costume?" "You know me so well Hayes!" I say as I finish my breakfast and Hunter laughs at me. "I'm gonna go give her a bath." I say and Hunter nods as I pick up Natalie and walk upstairs and I fill the bathtub so its less than a quarter full since she was little still and I wash the syrup off her and I shampoo her long hair and she giggles, she rarely cried over anything. I finish cleaning her off and I drain the tub and I dry her off. I walk into her room and I put a clean diaper on her and I slip her little green dress on and white tights with her green shoes with a white puff balls on tip and I put her hair in a small bun on top of her head and I stand her up and slip little wings that stay on her like a backpack and she giggles and spins around. "Are you a fairy?" I say and she looks up at me giggling. "Yes!" She squeals and she runs out into the hall and she gets on her butt and scoots down each stair and I laugh and walk down next to her and she runs into the kitchen. "Tinkbell!" She screams unable to pronounce Tinkerbell all the way and Hunter turns around and gasps. "Who is this beautiful fairy?" Hunter says kneeling down and Natalie spins and giggles. "Tinkbell!" She screams again. "What happened to Natalie?" Hunter says and Natalie stops and looks around. "Natty?" She says opening her arms as if to shrug and I watch them, laughing in the doorway. Hunter gasps and picks up Natalie and he tickles her and she giggles. "I found her!" Hunter says and Natalie laughs at Hunter and he sets her down before she runs into the living room laughing. "She's beautiful." Hunter says and I smile and walk up to him and he wraps his arms around me. "I know where she gets it from." He whispers before kissing me slowly. "Her first real Halloween." Hunter says and I nod smiling. "Its going by to fast." "I know." Hunter says sighing as we watch Natalie run around the living room making high-pitched squeals being her version of a fairy.
After a few hours we decide to leave and I throw on a grey scarf and grey boots and Hunter wears black skinny jeans a dark red shirt and his dark red converse. We drive into Nashville and we park in a big neighborhood that we knew was safe and wouldnt draw to much attention to Hunter and we walk from house to house, Hunter and I holding Natalie's hands. Soon Natalie got tired and Hunter carried her with one arm and held my hand with the other. Natalie enjoyed getting all the little treats and she would greet everyone by screaming and I would cover her mouth and each person would just laugh and call her cute. After a few hours we go back to the house and Natalie eats a few pieces of candy, and refuses to take off her costume. "She's stubborn, like you!" Hunter says and I hit his shoulder lightly. "Calling me stubborn?" "Uh-yeah" Hunter says laughing. "I hate you." "Love you too!" Hunter says and I kiss him before walking to the kitchen and I begin to make dinner. After we all eat Natalie chants 'Tinkbell!' to Hunter and I until we go into the living room and I turn on the Tinkerbell movie and she sits in front of the TV and watches while Hunter and I lay on the couch. "How many times have we watched this?" Hunter whispers and I giggle. "I lost count after 20." I say and he turns me to I'm laying next to him facing him, having my back to the TV. "Ya know she's pretty into it." Hunter whispers and I turn my head and look at Natalie whos laying on the floor watching the movie. I nod and giggle and Hunter leans in and kisses me slowly and passionately. The only time we get interrupted is when the music of the movie plays signifying the movies over and I jump as the music becomes louder and Hunter laughs. "She's asleep." I whisper as I sit up and I see Natalie curled in a ball sleeping with her costume still on. "I got her." Hunter says picking her up and he walks up the stairs and I follow as he walks into her room and lays her down gently. I kiss her on the forehead and Hunter follows my action. "Goodnight Baby." I whisper and she moves slightly and smiles. "Carry me too?" I say looking at Hunter and he rolls his eyes and picks me up and I laugh as he carries me to our room and I take off my boots and scarf and I slip into bed and Hunter slips in next to me, holding me by my waist and he kisses me lightly. "Goodnight Sky." He says and I smile and exhale. "Night Hayes." I say and I hear his breathing steady as he falls asleep holding me and soon I feel mine begin to steady also.
