The Bullies Baby Girl

Periwinkle Skies

   "What are you thinking baby?" Alexander asks.

   We were still cuddling in the back of the car. I had stayed quiet and looked out of the window.

   "The day that we had first met," I answer truthfully.

   He flinches at the memory. I could tell it was bittersweet for him. It was for me as well but not as severe. I wasn't upset about the thought of me dying. The pain of missing my mother and my dad's actions fueled me. Dying at the time seemed like a mercy. I don't think that anymore. I might have a sucky life but the darker the night the brighter the stars. And now I have Alexander.

   "I think that was the worst and second best day of my life," he says.

   "Why only second best?" I say pouting.

   "Because the best day of my life was the day after that, the day when you agreed to be mine," he says smiling

   The rebellious side of me wanted to say that I wasn't his and I was my own person, but my passive side had control at the moment and didn't want to start a fight. I stayed quiet and continued to look out of the window. it had been a few hours and it had turned to evening. The sun hung lazily in the sky slowly dropping into the sea. I watched an explosion of color paint the sky, the reds getting even more vibrant as the sun falls. Soon Periwinkle skies appear.

   The car finally stopped at the dock and I sat up from Alexanders hold. I was left with a cold feeling of longing. I pouted once Larry got out of the car.

   "Its ok to be little, baby, they won't be mean to you," he says sensing my smaller side coming out of me.

   I rubbed my eyes tiredly. Alexander chuckled and cooed. He slipped out of the car and came around to my side. He opens the door and holds me in his arms. I cling to him and hide my face in his neck. He smelled like pepper and morning if morning had a sent that is. it was very comforting and took a deep breath of his sent. I heard him chuckle but I was too tired to care.

   "Hello Mr. Grayson, and who's this little cutie," said a familiar voice behind me.

   I look up from Alexanders neck to see Larry.

   "You met me, Larry," I say to the brown haired, silver-eyed man behind me. He chuckles at me and then points behind Alexander and me.

   "No that's Larry, Im his Identical triplet Berry." He says laughing.

   Holy shit there's three of them!

   "I will be driving the boat to the Grayson Island," he says putting on his captain's hat.

   "Hello Berry," I say holding out my hand for him to shake.

   He grabbed my hand and shook it before escorting us on the boat. Alexander took me below deck and set me down on the bed that was down there. He took out an Uno deck and shuffled the cards. I was big enough to play a game of cards so I sat patiently for my seven cards so I could play.

   He deals out the cards and I pick up my hand. I had one wild, one draw four, two red draw two's, one yellow seven, a red zero, and one green nine. He places down the beginning card and the game started. A few minutes later I was doing a victory dance in front of a sower looking Alexander.

   "We're here Mr. Grayson if you would like to come up," Berry calls down the stairs.

   We walk up the stairs and I see that we are about a mile away from shore. Berry dropped anchor and got a dingy ready to row to the shore. We get our luggage into the rowboat and cautiously get in. after we are all in Berry starts to row us to shore. once we are there Berry hops out and pulls us onto the shore. I hop out with my luggage.
