Joseph went to the living room, while Sebastian entered the kitchen. He put out some chamomile tea of the closet and also searched for some honey to make it sweeter.
"Daddy!" Lily entered the kitchen and jumped into his arms. He caught her and gave her a little kiss.
"Hey sweetie."
"You have honey! I want some!"
"Alright, I'll put you some on a bread. But I want you to do something for me, yes?" He put his daughter back down.
"What shall I do?!"
"Jo-Jo is not feeling well. How about you put in a DVD and watch some stuff with him?"
"Yes!" Lily nodded.
"Good girl. And bring him this, he'll need it." He gave his daughter a pack of tissues.
"Yes!"
"Alright, I'll bring the food to the living room then."
Sebastian finished the tea and applied honey to a slice of bread. Then he brought the stuff to the living room. A little amused, he saw that Lily choose to watch a Barbie film. Poor Joseph.
"There ya go." He gave Joseph the cup of tea and Lily the plate with the bread. "Maid Sebastian, at your services."
Lily giggled and Joseph also had to smile. Sighing, Sebastian plopped on the couch between them. "Do you really think Joseph likes Barbie movies?"
"Everyone likes Barbie movies!" Lily pouted.
"You know, I doubt that. Joseph is more found of Sailor Moon."
"Oh, shut up." Joseph sighed deep.
"You really are?!" Lily looked at him with shiny eyes. "In the name of the moon I will punish you!"
"Well, we rather do that in the name of the law." Sebastian chuckled.
"Your outfits aren't beautiful!"
"Trust me darling, you don't want to see your daddy in a mini-skirt."
Joseph snorted, but it wasn't of his cold, it was clearly suppressed laughter. He definitely had imagined that right now.
"Jo-Jo, I warn you. Wipe that picture off your head."
"I'll try." Joseph chuckled and Lily also was giggling. With a deep sigh, Sebastian leaned back.
"Let's watch Sailor Moon instead!" Lily jumped off the couch and put out the Barbie DVD to replace it with a Sailor Moon movie.
"God, it's been ages..." Joseph scratched his head.
"So that's what your teenager rebellion looked like?"
"Apparently, yes."
"Impressive."
"I thought you'd call it gay."
"Well, that too."
"Jo-Jo! Who's your favorite Sailor warrior?!", Lily asked loudly.
Joseph looked at her. "My favorite? I don't know. Maybe Mercury."
"And yooours?" She looked at Sebastian.
"Huh. I'll go with Mars, I guess."
"You're all dumb! Bunny is the best!"
