"Daddy" Luna said, crawling into her father's lap. The brown haired 9-year-old tilted her head, "Can woo tell me about other Daddy a little?"
"Oh, where should I even begin?" He laughed, "I guess I should tell you about how we met. You know Daddy is a crazy talented singer? Well when him and Uncle Brian started out- Arin was a fan of mine. Unknown to him- I was a big fan of him myself. I was going to contact him but he beat me to it, writing him an email. Straight away, I felt this unspoken connection between us"
"Awe, dat Coote" she cooed. Then placed her head in her hands, staring at him intently as he kept talking about him.
"Hehe well, we ended up meeting up quickly because he was visiting my home town. Not long after, his partner on Game Grumps quit so I took over as the Not So Grump" he explained, looking off into the distance. As if he was reliving the memories, "I remember laying on the couch, my head on his shoulder. Him leaning on me. It was perfect, and my heart belonged to him. Yet, be was married so I never said anything. But his wife left him, which was awful. Honestly, I didn't even think of dating him. All I wanted to do is make him feel better and tried to do what I could to make him happy. It wasn't long until he was smiling again"
Suddenly, he paused. Wiping some tears from his eyes. It was painful to look back on the happy times. . . because all he wants is for them to come back.
"Oh nu!" She gasped, "Daddy nu has go carry on if Daddy too sadddd!"
"Hehe no baby girl. Those are happy tears" he lied, kissing her forehead. It was easier to lie to her than tell the truth.
"So, after a while we started to date. Our first date was at a small restaurant. It was just like any of time we went there before. But this time we would wink at me more, and I actually felt so special. Like I was the only one there with him- even though it was packed. I felt, like nothing could take that happiness away" he hummed, keeping his smile, "I was happy, with him. I loved him, cherished him. I still wear the wedding ring he got me. Engraved inside says 'To Arin's little Fluffals'. It made me feel so warm and fuzzy on the inside. But now I feel so. . ."
"Daddy feel sad when he wook at ring?" She asked, getting a nod from him, "Oh nu, Daddy need space? I help wook after daddy"
"No Angel bear, but that's so kind of you" he cooed, "I'll ask if I need you to look after me, though. That's a promise, Luna"
"Hehe okai" he cooed, laying in his arms, "So, why did Daddy go bye bye? You always get so quiet. Pwease tell me, I old enough now!"
"I. . . okay, I'll try" he sighed, "You see, unlike me or woo, Arin struggled to feel happy. His while life he lived with this sadness inside him. Some of us our just born that way, and he felt like going into the clouds was the only way to make that sadness go away. Unaware that when he went up there, the sadness would go to me instead. But don't worry Princess, having you made that sadness go away"
"I nu want Daddy sad, so I happy to hear that" he said, hugging him.
"Arin. . . Arin wrote me something. I could, read it to you?" He asked, having her nod softly towards him. So he pulled out a note, holding it away from her so she couldn't read it. He'd change it take out some of the things she shouldn't be reading;
Dear Danny,
I know this isn't what you expected. Honestly, I didn't want it to be like this. But after I hurt you, I can't live with that guilt on my shoulders. No, you and our little girl will be a lot better without me. So adopt her, for us. Take good care of her like you have done for me, and make sure she loves Mario. She better bloody love Mario ahaha. Anyway, I'll see you soon enough, If it's possible, I'll watch over you. So you are never truly alone. Because you're not.
Love, Arin <3
"Ohhh, so he's with us right now?" She asked, looking around to see if she could find him.
Danny chuckled softly, "Yeah baby. Even if you can't see if, he's here with us. . . always"
"Well, I happy woo adopted me. And I will wove Mario! Just for Daddy Arin!"
"I'm so happy to heard that, Luna"
