Daddy's Words Still Apply Today (Eminem)

Chapter Twenty One

        Once Lesane was done with his bottle, Marshall began to burp him. The girls picked up their plates and put them in the sink, giving Marshall less work to do, seeing as he had to care for an infant as well.

"Fizzy!" The girls exclaimed, causing Marshall to turn around and see the woman walking in the door.

       The girls ran over and wrapped their arms around her, as she carried in a rather large box, holding it just above the girls' heads so they could hug her.

"Hey girls, where's Marshall?" She asked, causing him to stand up and walk into the room.

"Right here, just finished burping Lesane." He said, and she smiled.

"Alright, girls go and sit on the floor near the couch. I've got a surprise for everyone." She stated, and the girls quickly agreed to what she said.

      They ran over and sat down on the floor near the couch, beckoning Marshall to come sit with them. So, with a sigh, Marshall walked over and sat with them, sitting Lesane on his leg with his back against Marshall's abdomen. Once the girls and Marshall were on the floor, Fèlicitè sat the large box on the floor.

"So, I was leaving my interview when I seen this old lady. She said she didn't have very much money, so she was giving these away for free. Of course, I gave her some money, it's only the nice thing to do, before I decided to take the whole box. I mean, I did give her five grand. Anyhow, let me open it up." Fèlicitè said, trying to not give away the surprise before she opened the box.

        As soon as the box was open, everyone could see what was inside. There was a four animals inside of the box, which was why the box was so big. All of the animals were babies, just barely off of the mother's milk, which made Fèlicitè wonder where the mothers were, but then realized the babies could've been abandoned by the mothers, or their mothers ended up as roadkill.

"You got pets?" Marshall commented, and Fèlicitè nodded.

"Yes, I did, but don't worry. All of them can just stay here; you don't have to bring them home with you." Fèlicitè answered, as the girls pouted.

        There were two Pomeranians, one black and one grey and black, there was a German Shepherd, and there was a Sphinx cat. The German Shepherd, according to the elderly lady, had dwarfism, so he wasn't going to be as big as regular dogs, but he would still be about half the size of the normal ones.

"Girls, I thought you guys would want the Pomeranians. They're all cute and look like clouds." Fèlicitè commented, causing the girls to squeal.

"They're ours?" Alaina asked, and Fèlicitè nodded.

"They have to stay here when you leave, but they'll be your dogs." Fèlicitè answered, and the girls clapped their hands in excitement.

       Fèlicitè pulled the small puppies out of the box, before handing them to the girls. She, of course, told them to be nice to the dogs or Marshall would have to take them away.

"I thought the German Shepherd would be good for Lesane, so it could grow along with him, ya know?" She commented, causing Marshall to nod.

"It'll be his best friend for years to come." Marshall answered, and Fèlicitè nodded.

     She pulled the German Shepherd out of the box, and placed him down by Marshall's leg. The dog sniffed around for a moment, before finding a spot to lay down next to Lesane and against Marshall.

"Alright, seems he likes both of you." Fèlicitè commented, and Marshall chuckled.

"Guess I'll help little man take care of him." Marshall said, and Fèlicitè smiled.

"This kitten would've been the only animal left if I didn't take it. I know most people wouldn't want a cat like this either, so I was scared for it's future. With that being said, I decided a naked cat wouldn't be a bad pet for me. At least I wouldn't have to be covered it cat for all of my life." Fèlicitè stated, and Marshall laughed.

"It looks like a ballsack." He commented, causing Fèlicitè to laugh as well.

"That's so mean," She retorted, before picking up the kitten and holding it up near her face,"Don't listen to him, he's just a mean, old grump." She cooed, holding the kitten near her chest.

"Mean, old grump? You're mean!" Marshall exclaimed, as the girls laughed as well.

"What's the animals names?" Alaina asked, causing Fèlicitè to shrug.

"They don't have any yet. You guys can name them." She replied, and the girls grinned.

"Mine will be named Stitch!" Hailie exclaimed, holding her black and grey puppy.

"Mine is Batman!" Alaina added, which surprised Marshall, since his girls weren't big on superheroes.

"Marshall, you name Lesane's puppy." Fèlicitè said, and Marshall nodded.

"I guess we can name him 2pac." Marshall commented, deciding to use Fèlicitè's father's name, to honor him of course, which made Fèlicitè shine a smile.

"Well, I guess my kitten will be named--" She began, before Marshall cut her off.

"Ballsack." He said, making her scowl.

"Marshall!" She exclaimed, making him laugh.

"Name him Nemo!" Hailie exclaimed, and Fèlicitè bit her lip.

"What about we name him after one of the sharks?" She asked, and Hailie nodded.

"Bruce, but we can use Brucie instead." Hailie said, and Fèlicitè nodded.

"Brucie it is." She commented, and Hailie cheered.

        Fèlicitè didn't know that Bruce was Marshall's middle name. He didn't know why, but hearing her name the kitten, unintentionally with his middle name, made his stomach fill with butterflies. He hadn't felt this way about a girl in a long time, which made him a little worried. He couldn't start having serious feelings about Fèlicitè, it would ruin their friendship. He needed to find a way to leave, fast. Hopefully Kim would be gone, otherwise he'd have to stay here longer, and he didn't know to what extent his feelings could grow for Fèlicitè...
