Leo POV
As I got out of the car, I heard my son yell, "Daddy! Daddy! I want out
now!" Nothing is more obnoxious than a 2 year old. Don't get me wrong, I love my son. But sometimes he makes me want to rip out my hair! I sighed, finished getting out, and unbuckled him from his car seat.
Before he could enter the house and lock himself in his room, causing me to have to build another doorknob after having to take it off to enter, his mother stopped him.
"Jackson! Look at me! Listen. When we go in, you are going to go with Daddy and you are going to take a bath. Okay? Understand?"
He pouted and nodded.
I took his hand and walked up to the door. I glanced at my watch. 7PM.
-5 minutes later-
"Hold-hold it- HOLD STILL. I can't prevent the soap from getting in your eyes if you keep moving." I rubbed the shampoo in his hair and washed it, rinsed it, etc. He definitely had my hair.
After his bath, we went to go see Mommy before we brushed our teeth and went to bed. Or, before he did anyway.
I picked him up and gave him a piggyback ride to find Mommy. We ran.
His shrieking giggles pierced the air.
"Leo!" I flinched. When Calypso took that tone, I was not in a good position. I set Jackson down and stepped forward tentatively.
"Yes, dear?"
"Don't hype him up. He needs to go to bed."
"Kay. Jackson, lets go say night to Mommy."
He ran ahead of me into my and Calypso's room. When I entered, he was laying under the covers on my side of the bed.
"Oh uh-uh. My bed, bucko."
He snuggled down deeper and shook his head. "Mine."
"Mine!"
"MINE!"
"My bed Jackson!"
"Leo and Jackson!" Calypso interrupted.
"Yeah?
"You go to bed." She pointed at Jackson. "And you, stop acting the same age as your son." She told me as Jackson slunk out of the room. I frowned.
"He stole my spot!"
"And you're not two." She countered.
"Ya sure?" I smirked.
"I sure hope so, or I'd be married to a toddler."
I laughed. As I got into bed, she said,"Go take a shower, you stink."
I rolled my eyes and stuck my tongue at her, but went and took a shower. I slipped off my shirt and threw it at her as I crossed the room.
"Ugh Leo! This smells like smoke!"
"Makes sense, I caught on fire today."
Before she could reply, I closed the bathroom door.
-10 minutes later-
I climbed into bed and turned on the TV. Calypso's arm grabbed a pillow and whacked me in the face.
"Turn it off! I'm tryin' to sleep!"
"Ugh sleep is overrated! Now, Dirty Jobs on the other hand...."
"Turn it off or you can sleep on the couch and watch all the Dirty Jobs you want!"
I switched it off and kissed her cheek. "Okay. Love you!"
