Through thick and thin; A Conor Maynard fanfiction

Seven

Caspar's P.O.V

"Is it okay if you watch Leonelle for a bit M? I'm heading over to Joe's to go through some future projects and stuff"

Merissa look up at me from where she's lying on the king sized bed, her legs crossed and her eyes glued on the toddler, playing on the floor in front of her.

"Of course baby, don't worry I've got this"

She wink at me and I feel a smile grow on my lips, seeing her with Leonelle made me think about if we would ever have kids any time soon. This summer have we been together for seven whole years, I can't understand how the time have gone by so quickly. We'd decided to wait with kids until we're older and more mature, I still feel like a big kid myself and watching Leonelle from time to time gave us both enough of baby time for now.

"Thank you, I'll be back in a few hours or so, just call me if something happens"

I close the door to our bedroom and grab my keys from the kitchen counter before leaving the flat, locking the front door behind me.

.........

"Baileys come here!"

Joe shout and the black labrador come running back to us, her tongue outside her mouth. Joe had bought that dog for about a year ago now, he'd said he was in need of company and wanted someone to cuddle up with when he got lonely.

"Have you ever thought about how you named your dog after an alcoholic beverage?"

Joe give Baileys a treat before attaching the leash to her collar.

"You know how I am and I did actually think of naming her something normal but the viewers insisted that I called her Baileys"

We continued walking in silence just stopping when Baileys needed to go for a wee or sniff a tree. It was a peaceful evening with the birds tweeting in the trees and a warm wind spreading a whiff of food from one of the nearby restaurants.

"So are you busy tonight or are you up for going back to mine for the evening?"

Joe look up from his phone before placing it back into the front pocket of his jeans.

"I was meant to film some gaming videos but that can wait until tomorrow, I'll just have to drop Baileys off at mine before we go"

I nod and look over at some kids playing football in the distance. They were probably fellow subscribers and I go back to watching the path in front of us not wanting to cause a full on meet and greet. It could be tough sometimes, especially now that we both have over 10 million subscribers each, the outings when we didn't get recognised more than a couple of times were rare. I still love it though and I don't think I'll ever stop doing what I do, or as long as people wants to watch my stupid stuff am I happy to put it out for them to enjoy.

...........

"Leonelle stop, you're covered in bubbles still!"

Leonelle's running around the flat butt naked with bubbles all over her tiny body when me and Joe enter the hallway.

"JOEE!"

Joe shrug back a bit as the naked toddler run towards him and I just stand there and laugh at him trying to avoid her wet body.

A few seconds later do Merissa show up almost as wet as Leonelle with her blonde hair tied up into a messy bun. 

"Sorry guys, she somehow managed to escape"

Merissa pick her up and carry Leonelle back into the bathroom as I hand Joe a beer before sitting down on the sofa together.

"So you're babysitting again huh?"
