Behind Closed Doors(PeRyl One Shots):Volume 1

Quaranthings 2

Being in lockdown at the Brosnan household is pretty interesting with the mix of attitudes in the house. They have Dylan, Paris, their girlfriends Avery, and Alex, their thirteen-year-old Nicky, and of course, their almost two-year-old Lia. The mix of people in their house is sometimes driving the couple nuts.

"Nicky, can you stop being on your phone for a while and call daddy in his studio?"Meryl asked Nicky who is once again on her phone.

"Daddy!"Nicky yelled as she stand on the stairs that annoyed Meryl.

"Daddy won't hear you from there Dominique. Go up and call daddy."Meryl said and Nicky heaved a deep sigh before running to Pierce's studio.

"Daddy, mommy's calling you."Nicky said and Pierce looked at her.

Pierce headed to where Meryl is right away and all he hear in the living room are Lia's cries.

"Why?What's the matter?"Pierce asked as he carry Lia who is on the floor throwing her tantrums.

"She woke up a little early from her nap and she didn't wake up that good."Meryl answered and Pierce slowly sat on the sofa, rubbing Lia's back.

"Shhh, stop crying, love."Pierce answered and Lia buried her face on her father's chest and cried harder.

"Do you want something to eat?"Meryl asked and Pierce shook his head.

"Coffee will do, babe."Pierce answered and Meryl just nodded before heading to the kitchen.

"Dada."Lia cried and Pierce is just rubbing her back.

"Dada is just here."Pierce whispered and she just kept on crying.

"What do you want, huh?"Pierce asked softly and he slowly stood up. He headed to their pool area with crying Lia still in his arms and he found Nicky at their garden, dancing in front of her phone.

"Lia, look at Kiki."Pierce said and Lia slowly lifted her head and her face is wet with her tears and her sweat.

"Stop crying now."Pierce said as he wipe her face and Lia is still sniffing.

"Kiki."Lia whispered as he point Nicky and Pierce decided to go to where Nicky is and started "videobombing" behind her that is making Lia laugh. Nicky suddenly stopped dancing and looked at her father.

"Daddy!"Nicky whined and Pierce laughed but Lia clapped.

"What?It's the only way that Lia will stop crying."Pierce reasoned out.

"I can include Lia in my dance video but not you."Nicky said and Pierce rolled his eyeballs.

"Okay, fine. Lia, dance with Kiki."Pierce said as he carefully drop Lia on her feet. The little girl started looking around and started babbling before looking up at her father and started crying again.

"Dada!"Lia cried and Pierce hoisted her up into his arms again.

"Daddy's just here, don't cry."Pierce said and he once again wiped Lia's tears.

"Alright, let's get daddy's coffee first."Pierce said as they head to the kitchen.

"Is Lia okay now?"Meryl asked when she saw Pierce with Lia coming in.

"A little. She still don't wanna leave daddy's arms."Pierce answered and Meryl handed him his coffee.

"Mommy, mimik."Lia suddenly uttered, raising her arms and Meryl carried her right away.

"Or maybe she don't wanna be put down. She wanna be babied."Pierce said and Meryl softly giggled.

"What do you want?"Meryl asked and Lia started tugging her shirt.

"Mimik."Lia cried and Meryl nodded.

"You still have milk there?"Pierce asked the moment Lia started drinking her milk directly from her mother and Meryl smirked.

"Why?You jealous?"Meryl asked.

"I'm not. I'm milking you down there and that milk is better."Pierce answered with a wink and Meryl hit his arm.

"Stop talking about sexual things in front of Lia, my God."Meryl said and Pierce gave a peck on her lips.

"I'll just check on Nicky."Pierce said and Meryl just nodded. Pierce headed back to where Nicky is and she is still at the same spot where they left her, and she's still dancing.

Pierce slowly walked behind Nicky and he just started dancing to annoy her.

"Daddy!"Nicky whined all of a sudden and Pierce laughed.

"Why?You don't wanna dance with daddy anymore?"Pierce asked.

"No, I want to, it's just that you look funny when you dance."Nicky answered and Pierce scoffed.

"C'mon, I danced in Mamma Mia."Pierce said and Nicky went near him.

"Yes, daddy, and that's funny."Nicky said and she started dragging her father to the side.

"Atleast I got paid in that. Are you getting paid when you dance in front of your phone?"Pierce asked and Nicky rolled her eyeballs.

"No, but I don't look funny."Nicky answered and Pierce heaved a deep sigh.

"Fine, I'll just watch."Pierce said and Nicky giggled.

"That's good, daddy."Nicky said before running to her previous place.

Pierce watched Nicky dance in front of her phone and all he can think of is that, she is really growing up and there are things that he can't do with her anymore. She is not the nine-year-old that needed him almost all the time anymore.
