Chapter 22

Leslie's POV:
Today I'm gonna go out and look for the perfect ring for her. I want to propose to her, I know it feels like rushing but I know this will be my forever. I'll wait a few more months but I just know that this time we're gonna stay together, Ryan will be taking her out with the group today while I head out into the city to pick out the ring for her...

Delilah's POV:
Leslie is gonna be going out for the day, apparently it's to see her brother our in the city. I wished I could come but she said it was business related and I'd get bored; wrapping the fluffy yellow towel around me I walked out and saw on my bed an outfit that Leslie of course already arranged for me. Smiling, I walked over and picked it up, she hadn't left yet but she's most likely downstairs over worrying about what to pack me for lunch. Picking up my outfit I changed quickly into the clothes, grabbing my hair brush and yanking at my hair. I really loved long hair but it always was hard to manage, eventually I did get all the tangles out and jumped down the stairs. Sure enough I saw Leslie packing my lunch and cutting up fruits for me, watching her from the door frame, I watched her lean over the counter and try to cut my strawberries into flowers. Hearing a knock on the door, I went over to answer it and saw Ryan standing there looking as all grumpy and Koda with a cute little grin on his face. Giggling, I let them both inside and watched as Leslie asked Ryan if he would like any coffee. Ryan nodded and sat on the couch looking like he was gonna doze off, I grabbed Kodas hand and led him upstairs to my room so we could play,
"What did you do to Ryan?"
"We stayed up late playing call of duty and then I woke up early, so he woke up with me and he's super tired", nodding I tried to stifle my laugh. Poor Ryan got Koda on his hands who has adhd, I grabbed out my coloring books and offered a book to him. Koda took a page and we both colored together until I Heard Leslie call down for me,
"Baby! I'm heading out, come give me a hug bye bye", hearing that I ditched my book and skipped down the stairs. Leslie waited at the bottom and hugged me tightly, she whispered I love you and kissed my forehead. We both looked at the asleep Ryan on the couch,
"Let him sleep love, he's very tired", nodding, I grabbed her car keys and handed them to her as she was leaving. I didn't like her leaving but I knew she wouldn't leave me overnight, turning back towards Ryan, I saw Koda creeping over with a little smirk on his face.
"We should prank him.."
"I have glitter upstairs", Koda heard that and ran up into my room, i followed shortly after him. We went into my crafts drawer, grabbing the yellow glitter, Koda ran back downstairs with me. Koda clambered on top of Ryan, I twisted the glitter cap open, pouring some into his hands. I poured some in my hand too, Koda poured it over his head and to wake him up I blew it right into his face. Ryan jumped up and coughed out the glitter, I ran and hid behind King and Cocoa. Ryan grabbed Koda and I saw Koda scream as Ryan tickled him. I really had wished that I had my Leslie here with me, King licked my face affectionately while I watched the two play fight. Eventually Ryan calmed down Koda and he started getting Kodas shoes on for him. They were going to take us to a playroom in the main building, it's a huge playroom and a fun one apparently. The entire group was gonna go today, grabbing my shoes, i pulled them on and double knotted them. Leslie had dressed me and did my hair before she left, grabbing my backpack, I packed my paci,water bottle, and a bag of goldfish. Ryan ushered us out the door and into the elevator. Koda and I skipped along the pathway up into the building, Ryan swiped a card and the door unlocked. We entered and I watched Liam and Sophia coloring on a table,

Koda dragged me over to the table past some other littles. He grabbed a coloring page from Sophia which earned him a dirty glare. Giving me the coloring page, he handed me some crayons which I took thankfully. Coloring in the giraffe with the purple crayon, I took a glance around and noticed a little glaring across from me. Ignoring it, I got up and climbed up the stairs of the princess castle where there was padding on the flooring so it doesn't feel so stiff. Sitting down, I grabbed out my phone and texted Leslie before going on a simulator game. Humming the Winnie the Pooh theme, I curled up in the corner and kept playing my game until I heard the footsteps of someone coming up. I glanced up to see the little that was glaring at me, they had a paci that said "they, them" so I wondered if I had accidentally said something wrong in the past.
"Hi"
"Are you friends with that purple haired girl"
"Uh yes, Sophia?", with a scoff they replied bitterly,
"Why? She's such a bitch"
"She's actually pleasant if you give her a chance"
"How so? Shes so rude and acts better than everyone"
"It's not your business"
"What?! You're defending her?"
"She's my friend", they grabbed my phone and threw it off the side and it bounced off the rug and onto the wooden floors. I watched the screen shatter as it hit the hard surface,
"What the hell! That was my phone", I said shoving past them. Running down the steps, my heart broke as I saw that Max had picked it up in confusion but also irritation. I grabbed it from him and tried to turn it on, it was my only communication to Leslie. Tears welled up in my eyes as I saw that Ryan had walked up and asked how it dropped. All I could do is point at the little who stood at the end of the stairs with a innocent face,
"I don't know why she's pointing at me. I didn't do anything"
"Yes you did! I saw you go up there and you were arguing with her", a little boy spoke up from underneath the castle where he had a tablet in his hand. The boy must've been hiding in the corner so none of us had seen him,
"Nu uh! Did not", the little argued back and walked out of the room. Liam looked upset and walked out with Bea to do something, I tried to turn on my phone but it was completely shattered. I held back the tears as Sophia asked if I was okay, softly I replied yeah and wanted to just break down crying. I had kept a lot of anxiety being away from Leslie after we had split up, the phone helped me keep contact. A supervisor walked in with Bea and Liam trailing behind, the supervised walked up to me and gently asked what happened,
"They were upset that I was friends with Sophia so they grabbed my phone and threw it off the side for no reason", I said softly. The supervisor tried to ask me more questions but I refused to answer anymore. I wanted to just shut down, Sophia got irritated with the supervisor and said roughly,
"Why are you asking her all these questions?! Can't you just find the person and make them pay for the phone", Max swatted her arm lightly but at this point I just started breaking down crying. Ryan gently pulled me into a hug but I wanted to pull away, Bea noticed my irritation and pulled me down onto the couch. I started crying while the supervisor asked the people around if they knew their name. I cried into Bea while Ryan took out his phone and called Leslie. Stepping out of the room, I wanted to reach for the phone but Ryan was quick to step out which made me cry harder. Bea grabbed out her phone and put on cocomelon for me. Which for sure distracted me, eventually the tears dried and I listened to the songs. Max agreed that we should head to a diner while we wait for Leslie to get back which made the tears come again. Ryan explained to me that she didn't have good cell service with her driving back so I couldn't call. We all walked to a nearby diner and got seated at a huge booth. Bea sat me next to her and ordered me a side of fries and I really wanted a chocolate cake slice. Gladly she ordered it and I ate my fries before turning to my chocolate warm cake slice. I was so busy enjoying it and it made me feel so warm, we paid and left and then decided to split off into our own ways. Ryan walked Koda and I back towards our building, laughing I decided to play tag with Koda. Running around the grassy area, I was running away from Koda when I didn't notice the tree root poking up out of the ground. Tripping over it, i fell and scraped my knee so bad it bled. Which hurt, another round or tears poured out and Ryan walked over worriedly and picked me up. Koda worried since it was a bad tumble, we made it into the elevator and entered my apartment where he sat me down on the couch. King and Cocoa tried to lick the wound but it made me cry from frustration which Cocoa sensed. Cocoa snapped at King which made him back off, Cocoa hopped up onto the couch and licked my face. I hid my face into Cocoa while Ryan grabbed the bandaids, he came back with a wet rag. Whining at first I didn't want him to touch my knee, it would burn. Ryan eventually got me to cooperate, cleaning up the blood and placing a fresh new band aid on my knee. After that, I curled up on the couch with Cocoa close next to me and king laid on the floor as close to me as he could get. Cocoa laid her head on my legs and I soon fell fast asleep, from all the crying and rush of emotions. A couple hours later, I heard the door open and Leslie's voice fill the room. King got up and greeted her while Ryan sat grabbed my shattered phone out of his pocket and showed it,
"Some little decided to bully her"
"I heard. What happened to her knee?"
"She tripped and fell hard"
"My Poor Princess, she's been through a lot today. I'll see what I can do with the phone", Leslie said and I felt her shift me, she sat down and placed me against her. Smiling, she kissed my forehead and I fell back asleep as she talked to Ryan a bit more about the recent events...
