My Girlfriend's Mom

"Okay Bell, help me out." I said to her as I laid out a couple of clothes I haven't worn in a while. I was thinking of having her help me decorate them when we had it all figured out but right now, we were choosing what went where.

"Help you out? I don't know what to do." She said to me holding her hands up in confusion. I chuckled briefly and sat beside her after I got out my phone. I swiped through a couple of pictures from the internet of the Oz and watched her facial expressions. So far, she was still lost.

"It's like a costume party that you're having at your school, but instead of dressing up as anything we have to dress up as one of these characters from a movie." I said to get as I continued to scroll. Her eyes lit up and she jumped on my lap in excitement.

"Ouu, what about the black doggy? I like dogs." She said to me with a smile on her face. I shook my head.

"Let's try this; what's your favorite color?" I asked her even though I already knew the answer. She looked down at the picture I stopped at and thought for a minute. "It has to be apart of the play baby." I reminded her.

"Yellow!" She shouted at me as she pointed. I looked and nodded.

"Okay. We can do that. You wanna help me make it?" I asked her. Her face lit up again and she nodded. I picked out the outfit, had her help me for some of it and was done in no time so I could shower some of the glitter off of me.

I got Bella dressed as well and made sure my dad knew I was leaving as I knocked on his door. Tiffany ended up answering. I automatically assumed he was in his restroom.

"Um, tell my dad I'm going to a costume party at a friend's house. There won't be no drinking or smoking so I'm taking Bella too." I told her. She nodded and closed the door behind her without a word. Conversation started behind the door so I turned around out the long hallway and left.

I'm out dad. Taking Bella wit me. There's no drinking or smoking there.

Dad: alright b safe. Make sure u get here at a reasonable time if your taking Bella. No cussing around my munch. 😐

We gon b good dad. Lol. No doubt. ❤️💯💯

Dad: ight. Ily Yel. We talking when u get back.

Love you too Dad.

I ignored the last text he sent again about being safe. He wasn't gonna be up when I got home. He couldn't even keep his eyes open to list things he needed from the store earlier today.

It was around 6:30 and a bit early to be at the part so I drove to sonic with Bella. I grabbed to corn dogs and some tots for us and parked to eat.

After a while, I noticed Bella hadn't touched her food. Well, barely. She nibbled off of her corn dog and a couple of tots, but she looked too much like she had something on her mind for a three year old.

"You okay Bell?" I asked. I reached over and felt her forehead as she looked at me. She felt fine.

"I gotta sneeze, but I can't." She whined. I chuckled lightly and handed her a tissue. She took it and held it against her nose. I scrunched up my nose at her and watched the paper towel the moment it left her nose. Fuck.. since when she start having nose bleeds? I grabbed the tissue back before she could see it and put it back on her nose.

Bella hated blood. She screamed bloody murder when she scrapped her knee once. It wasn't even a big cut.

"Why you doing that? It doesn't-"
