"She gonna hate us after this." Catra looked at Adora.

"If she hates us, we can always have another child for her to get jealous of." Adora began shaking Hope's bed. Catra glared.

"I'm kidding." Adora laughed followed by Catra's sarcastic giggle. "Look, it's been a month, she's got to go."

"Alright, you go start the water and I'll get her over there."

"Hopefully this won't end badly like last time."

Every month, the two women tried their hardest to give Hope a bath but Hope was a rather...a persistent child when it came to bathing and cleanliness

Three years ago.

At only nine months old, baths weren't exactly Hope's favorite thing.

Hope screamed as loud as could be when her feet would touch the water. Adora could have to splash the water on her while Catra was holding Hope when she kicked or sobbed.

Let's say her first bathtub experience wasn't the best.

Two years ago

Hope still hadn't gotten the whole bath thing through her head. Catra would try to put her in the water while Adora would keep telling her it was going to be okay.

Hope had enough strength kick water in both her moms' faces. Adora for one wasn't so wet until Catra shook all the water off of her and onto Adora.

A year later

Hope was hiding her Queen Glimmer's bedroom down the hall from Adora and Catra's. Hope thought about hiding under the bed since no one would think to look under Glimmer's bed. Once she was in hiding, she heard footsteps. Glimmer walked in with what looked like a list in her hands; she saw a tail.

"Hope? Is that you?"

"No."

Glimmer teleported under the bed with Hope.

"Can you tell aunt Sparkles why you're under here?"

"Bath."

"So It has been a month. Hope, you need to take a bath, it's how you smell good." Hope began sniffing the queen's arm.

"You mell goo." Hope babbled.

"Thank you, sweetie but now, it's your turn." Glimmer sneered and held her hand and teleported into Hope's bathtub. Hope was screaming or anything and got revenge by spitting water in her parents' and the queen's faces but she was, however, angry at Glimmer for a whole two months.

A month ago

Hope was hiding from her moms to avoid cleanliness. At this age, Hope loved getting messy and rolling around the grass and dirt. She would always play with all the tiny animals in the forest while her parents searched all over the castle for her.

When they did, they actually had to dump water on her. Hope hissed at her moms when they did that and Hope held her breath until her parents said they were sorry. She almost fainted actually.
