The next morning, Summer was the first of all of us to wake up and when she noticed Lacey wasn't in bed with her but she grinned as to where her mama could be. So she slunk out of the bed and went into the living area of the hotel room and found her mama in my arms and of course I was still shirtless from the night before, and Summer wasn't shy about in terms of broadcasting the fact that she enjoys him being around her and her mama. Summer then creeps into the bedroom and grabs Lacey's phone, returns to the living room and smiles as she takes a picture of her sleeping mama and me. She then wakes us up and both Lacey and I smile at Summer as she slides her mama's phone behind her back which Lacey notices and says, "Summer. What are you doing with my phone, sweetheart?"
"Nothing." Summer replies trying to act innocent. I decided to interject.
"Now, Summer. Tell the truth. We promise we won't be mad if you do." Summer opened Lacey's phone and showed us the photo she took only moments ago. I grinned as Lacey blushed in response to seeing the picture. Lacey gently took her phone from Summer's grasp as Summer crawled onto the couch and into my lap. "Now why did you take that picture sweetie?" I asked Summer and the answer she gave me, I did not expect or see coming.
"Because I wish you were my daddy." She said with no sign of kidding or joking.
'I wish that also.' Lacey whispered to herself although I did catch it to be honest.
"Ohh, you do do you?" I asked Lacey who had this deer in headlights look on her face as she did not expect me to hear her even at a whisper. Summer giggled at the expression on her mama's face. "Well, the only way to even go about it, is for you and me to go on a date and start an actual relationship instead of a friendship." Summer smiled as did Lacey.
"What is it your saying exactly?" Lacey asked a mile wide grin creeping across her lips.
"Well, what I'm saying is, would you like to go out with me tonight?" I asked.
Lacey looked to Summer who was still in my lap and she was trying not to let me notice her nodding to her mom. "Absolutely. But who will look after Summer?"
"Why not Dana?" I asked. Summer nearly broke her neck from nodding in response so much.
"Ha, ha, ha. Okay. I'll ask Dana at lunch today." Summer celebrated and ran to the bedroom to get ready for the day I supposed.
"She's one happy little girl." I said as I chuckled.
"Yeah. Do you really want to?" Lacey asked.
"Lace?" I asked a little confused.
"Do you really want to be her dad?" At first I was a little shocked that Lacey didn't think I was serious about possibly becoming Summer's dad. But I then thought about there possibly being many other guys that have said the really would but turning tail and running when it came time to prove it.
"Lace." I started. "I'm not one to just say something like that unless I thought it through. Now I've known you for less than a month I believe since I've been on the Smackdown brand since I've signed with WWE and the funny thing is. I actually admire you for being a single mom. Especially one that's in the business we're in. And that's not a dig at you. I just think that Summer made the request or wish of me being her dad. That and along with your failed low key agreement with her wish. I just feel it's up to me to make it become a reality. Or die trying."
"Ooohhh, your such a sweetheart." Lacey slid her right hand over my left cheek and behind my head and pulled me into a short, but sweet and loving kiss.
"Right then. We should get ready and you need to brush your teeth preferably with mouthwash." I giggled as Lacey smiled while slapping my left shoulder playfully.
I laughed as we got up and got ready for the day. I took Lacey and Summer out for breakfast, went sight seeing around Buffalo before we headed back to the hotel. Packed and Lacey went to lunch with Dana as I watched Summer and made sure she did her schoolwork.
"I really hope that aunt Dana can watch me tonight." Summer said as I sat behind her. "Summer darling." She continued her schoolwork as I asked, "Why do you want me to be your dad? Is it because you see how happy your mom is around me or is it that you'll possibly get away with a little more with me than your mama?" She smiled like she was up to something.
"A little of both." She replied.
"Well, I guess I can see why. I mean, between you me and the wall, she's a little too strict. But I'm not promising the stars mind you. But I'll try and get her be a little more lenient. As for me. As long as you do your schoolwork and behave. I think I can see my way clear to giving you some leeway." She grinned. "Okay?" She nodded. "Good girl."
