babysitting [g]

I was babysitting my 7-year-old little cousin, Coraline today with my boyfriend Grayson. Every time her parents (her dad is my mom's brother) needed to go somewhere they asked if I could come to babysit her. And of course I always came if I only could.

Today they wouldn't come home before 11 pm, so I asked if Grayson could come too and they said that of course he could. It wasn't his first time babysitting her with me though.

We had arrived here one hour ago and now it was 5 pm. We were sitting on the couch and watching SpongeBob SquarePants. Coraline loved that show, it was her favorite. She sat between me and Grayson. She really liked Grayson, I guess she had a crush on him. And Grayson liked her too.

After SpongeBob she asked: "Y/N, can you make me French braids?"

"Of course I can," I said and looked into her pretty green eyes. "but first you need to eat. I promise I'll make you French braids after that, okay?"

"Okay." she said and ran to the kitchen and pulled her chair under the dining table.

Me and Grayson followed her into the kitchen. Grayson opened the door of the cabinet where they kept their plates and he pulled out one bowl which was made of plastic and had a picture of SpongeBob on it.

"There." he said and tossed it to me and I filled it with some meatballs and spaghetti. "Take two more plates." I said to him. My uncle had said that we could eat too if we wanted to.
He pulled out two more plates (this time not made of plastic) and gave them to me.

I warmed our food in the microwave and gave the plastic bowl of meatballs and spaghetti to Coraline who was patiently waiting for it. I loved her so much.

"You want some ketchup?" I asked.

"Can you now do the braids?" she asked and sat next to me on the couch.

"Of course." I said and started to braid her hair. "Can you do braids to Grayson too?" she asked.

"Omg yes." I said and started to giggle when I saw Grayson's face. He obviously didn't want braids but I wanted to make Coraline happy.

"Grayson do you want to see my Littlest Pet Shop town?" she asked after braiding their hair. "Of course I want to." he said and picked Coraline on his shoulders and carried her into her room.

Her room was pink. I won't lie, the walls were painted with babypink paint, the curtains were pink and basically everything was pink.

There was a huge Littlest Per Shop house on the floor and smaller ones around it. There were a lot of different kinds of Littlest Per Shop animals.

"Wow," Grayson said. "would you like to introduce this town to me?"

And then we all were sitting on the floor and playing. It was super fun. I loved how Grayson was so interested of her toys and really wanted to play with her. I bet this was the best day of Coralines life by this far.

I looked at the clock which was hanging on the wall. 8.27 pm. It was time to have some cereal before Coraline had to go to sleep.

"Coraline, it's time to have some cereal before you have to go to bed." I said.

"But I'd really like to play with you and Grayson." she said and I saw the sadness in her pretty eyes.

"Hey Coraline, if you go to eat some cereal and wash your teeth and change your clothes I promise to read you a story." Grayson convinced.

"Can I choose the story?" she aksed and now her pretty eyes were filled with joy again.

"Of course you can." Grayson said, smiled and stood up. He straightened the hem of his pink hoodie and held me by my waist as we walked to the kitchen again. "You are so sweet." I whispered and he smiled.

Grayson and I sat on Coraline's bed and Coraline was lying in the bed while Grayson read the story of an unicorn.

"Okay Coraline, now you have to get some sleep. Your parents are coming home soon and they would love it if you were asleep when they come." Grayson said after he finished the story.

"Okay, Grayson." she said and smiled. She pressed her head on her pillow and waited us to get up from the bed so she could pull the blanket higher.

"Let me tuck you in," Grayson mumbled. "Goodnight Coraline, I hope we'd see soon."

"Goodnight Grayson." she said and earned a little kiss from Grayson on her forehead.

"Goodnight Coraline. We'll be in the living room if you need us." I said and then turned the lamp off.

"Grayson, I love you so much. I love how you take care of Coraline and how you play with her. And it was really sweet of you to read her the story." I said while we were sitting on the coach and watching TV and he still had the French braid in his hair.

He kept me tight in his strong arms and said: "Thank you baby." and pecked my lips.
