Fourth of July

Chapter 20

^^this is Gee's bedroom btw

~~

Gee was screaming as he threw a fit. He laid on the ground in the middle of the empty living room as he kicked his feet.

"Gee, come on, it's time to get into the car," I said.

"They took my toys away!" Gee screamed.

"No they aren't, they're just moving things into the new house," I said. "And this is the last of it which means that we need to go too."

I picked him up as he cried, looking over the house one last time before I got into the van. The entire van and the trailer we usually use for instruments was completely filled up. A lot of the big furniture was already moved into the new house but now the rest of it was being taken over. Gee cried the whole time until we got to the other house, which was a little bit bigger than my old house.

It was a two story house with three bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms. The door opened to a living room and right behind that was a little kitchen and the bathroom. To the left were two flights of stairs, one going up and the other going down. The one going down lead to another little family room area, which I was probably going to turn into a mix of a a band practice area and Gee's playroom, just so his toys aren't spread around where everyone always is. Up the stairs was the bathroom first on the right, across from that was an empty bedroom, next to that was my bedroom with my own ensuite and next to the hall bathroom was Gee's room.

"Here we go, don't you like it?" I asked.

Gee sniffled, shrugging his shoulders.

"Come on, I decorated your room all pretty," I said.

I held his hand, bringing him upstairs. We went up to his room and I smiled happily. The walls were painted pink and there was a big pink rug in the middle. Against the wall was a white bed with pink floral printing and a big canopy over it. There was a big teddy bear against the bed and on the opposite side of the room was a bunch of toys and a little kiddy table.

"It's all mine?" Gee asked. "My own princess room?"

"Yes, Gee, this is your very own princess room," I said. "Now you don't have to share a bed with me."

"Y-you don't like sharing a bed with me?" Gee whimpered, his eyes watering.

"Oh, Gee, it's not that, I love sleeping in the same bed with you," I said. "I thought you would just like to have your own bedroom and your own bed. Do you like it?"

"It's really pretty," Gee said.

"You're welcome," I said.

Gee sat at his new little tea table and giggled.

"Daddy, play tea party," he said.

"I can't right now, I'm gonna go start unpacking stuff," I said. "Why don't you have a tea party with Sebastian and squilly?"

"I wanna have a tea party with Evan," Gee said.

"I'm sorry but Evan is out with Jamia right now and he can't come over for a tea party," I said.

"Not that Evan, this one," he said.

He reached into the front pocket of my jeans and I jumped back when his hand brushed against my crotch.

"Woah, wh-what are you doing?" I asked.

"Looking for Evan," he said.

I pulled my phone out of my pocket and he giggled excitedly as he took it. Four chairs surrounded the circle table and he sat in one, put Sebastian in the second, Squilly in the forth and finally my phone on the last chair. Gee immediately grabbed the toy tea set and he played with it happily.
