Lost || Nicholas Scratch

Angel opened the box and took out some toys. She began showing me the toys. After some time she took out a teddy bear. "This is my favorite!" Angel said and showed me the bear. "Her name is Star!" She said with a smile that reminded me of Nick. "Star?" I said. "Yes! Nick gave me this when I was a baby..." She said and smiled. "He did?" I said and the girl nodded. She yawned a little and sat down. "Tried?" I asked. The girl nodded and made grabby hand towards me. I picked her up and asked, "Should we get Nick?" The little girl nodded. I began walking out of the room. "Nick?" I said trying to find him. "Yes?!" I heard from a room. I walked down to the kitchen. "Is everything ok?" Nick asked when I came in. His back facing me. "Yeah... Angel is just tired" I said and walked beside him with Angel holding on me. I hold her on my hip. Nick turned around. He looked at me. "I think she already fell asleep," Nick said and smiled at the view in front of him. "What?" I said confused and look down on Angel. Her eyes locked and her mouth slightly open. "She likes you..." He said getting back to what he was doing. "I don't know..." Saying unsure about the girl liking me. "She doesn't like strangers... she wouldn't stay with you if she didn't like you... and definitely she wouldn't fall asleep in your arms." He said. I leaned on the wall. Nick came closer to us and kissed Angel on the forehead. "Can you put her in the bed?" Nick asked looking you in the eyes. I nodded. "Thank you... The dinner will be done in a little" He said and got back to cooking. "Ok..." I said and walked back into Angel's room. I used magic to change her clothing and I tucked her in. I kissed her on the forehead like Nick. I left the nightstand light on and walked out. I walked back to Nick. "She's sweet..." I said and sat on the bar chair beside counter in the kitchen. "Like an angel..." I added and we laughed. "Yeah..." Nick said. "I'm done!" Nick said and took to plates. He put one in front of me and one beside me. He sat down. "And what did Nick make today?" I said jokingly and look down on the food. He made Italian pasta. "It looks good..." I said and laughed. "I hope it tasted good too," Nick said jokingly back.  I took a bite of it. Nick looked at my reaction. It was very good. "I didn't know Mr. Nick could cook!" I said and giggled a little. "Well ms. I can..." He said and laughed. I giggled a little at his comment. I ate the food. We were done. "Thank you for this meal, Mr. Nick," I said with a little laugh. "No problem..." He said and smiled. I took our plates to wash them. "You don't need to!" Nick said and stood up. "But I want to... we can say its a thank you for the meal..." I said and smiled at him. He mumbled some words.  "Done..." Nick said and smiled. "What?" I said confused. "The dishes..." He said and smirked at his win. I turned to dishes they were clean. I turned to him. I laughed. "Sneaky..." I said and he laughed. "Thank you... thank you," He said with a smirk. "Do you want to watch a film?" Nick asked and lean on the wall behind him. "Yeah, we can..." I said with a small smile. He took my hand. I walked beside him into the living room. Nick lied on the sofa dragged me with him.  I landed on top of him. We began laughing. "That hurt a little..." I said between my laughs. He stopped laughing. "Are you ok? Did I hurt you?" He asked concerned. "Chill I said a little..." I said and smiled. "Now what movie should we watch?" I asked and slide to his left side. I was in between the sofa and Nick. I cuddled into Nick and looked around. His arm around my waist. "Hmm..." Nick stood up and put a movie on. "What movie Nick?" I asked. "Just watch," He said and lied beside me. He pulled me close to him by my waist. I put my head on his chest and watched the film. In the middle of the film, Angel came down. "Nick... I had a nightmare" Angel said and rubbed her eye with her hand. In one of the hands, she was holding teddy bear close to her. Nick stood up and picked her up. "Are you ok?" Nick asked. "I didn't like the dream. It was scary."Angel said and hugged Nick closer. "Do you want to sit with me and Emely until you get tired?" He asked and the little girl in his arms nodded. I sat on the sofa. Nick sat beside me with Angel on his lab. "Hi..." Angel said to me. I smiled. "Hi..." I said back still with a smile on my face. She made grabby hand to me. I took her on my lab. She cuddled into me. I made circles on her back... it helps me to calm down and fall asleep. Angel hugged her teddy into her more but this time with both hands. I looked at Nick. He was watching us with a smile on his face. He looked into my eyes and smiled more. I smiled back but looked down at Angel when I heard a yawn. "Do you want a blanket Angel?" I asked noticing the little girl shaking a little. "Yes twank wou..." She said. I looked at Nick not knowing were the blankets. He took a one and put it over me and Angel. He kissed Angel's head then looked and me. He smiled at me and then kissed my forehead. I smiled a little. He sat down beside me. I put my head on his shoulder. I heard a snore from Angel. I laughed a little. "She snores?" I asked and laughed quietly. "Oh... if you hear her one time... you could hear her from a mile away," He said and laughed with me. I heard a whine. I looked down at Angel. "ops" I said and giggled. I put my head back on Nicks' shoulder. I felt Nicks' hand around my waist. My eyes felt heavy. "You can sleep if you want... baby girl..." I heard Nick said before I fell asleep.
