Tyler hauls the large box into the basement, setting it down on his lab floor. Once he takes a quick breather he goes over and opens his bedroom door. Going back over he grabs the box once again and carries it into his room. "Pa!" Bells exclaims, sitting up from her spot on the bed. "Since I haven't been able to spend much time with you lately and everything, I got you a present," Tyler smiles. "You're the best, Pa!" Bells says excitedly with a small squeal, climbing off the bed quickly to wrap him in a tight hug. "It's a dollhouse! I wasn't able to get any dolls but I'm sure we'll figure something out," Tyler says as he grabs his pocket knife that had previously been stabbed into the wall. "Is Deco gonna help?" Bells asks as Tyler starts cutting the tape on the box. "If he wants to, why don't you go ask him?" Tyler suggests as he closes his knife and puts it in his pocket. "Oke!" Bells smiles as she makes her way out of the room and up the basement stairs. First she heads up the stairs to Decota's room, knocking on it softly. When she gets no answer she knocks on Nate's door. The door is opened and Nate pokes his head out curiously. "Yes?" Nate asks softly. "Where's Deco?" Bells asks, an expectant look in her eyes. "I think he's at the crib," Nate answers with a smile. "Thank!" Bells smiles back before rushing off to go get him. Running the short way through the field she makes it there and opens the door, not bothering closing it behind her. "Deco! Come help Pa build up my dolly house, please!" Bells asks as she spots him and walks over. "Alright, let's go," Decota smiles, giving a quick glare to one of the other guys in the room as he lets Bells lead him outside. Once they return they find Tyler already trying to put it together. "Hey, buddy," Tyler greets Decota as he sits next to him. Bells sits back on the bed and picks up the picture she was coloring to finish it. "Can you screw this in while I hold it in place?" Tyler asks as he puts two pieces together. "Of course," Decota nods as he grabs the screwdriver and one of the provided screws. "Reinhold is gonna rule the house," Bells declares as she pauses coloring to watch them for a moment. "Won't he be a bit big for it?" Decota asks as he continues helping Tyler. "Then he'll just rule from the roof!" Bells giggles. "Speaking of Reinhold, you still haven't properly met him yet, Decota," Tyler says with a slight smirk. "I'm perfectly fine keeping it that way, he's scary," Decota scrunches up his face for a second with his words. "He's not scary!" Bells quickly chimes in, seemingly offended by his words. "Not to you, I'm just afraid of snakes," Decota tries to reason with her. "Oh, fine," Bells huffs as she goes back to her coloring, still a bit hurt over the comment.
