I didn’t know they made glitter paper.
“Ruslan was very excited about that.” Daddy needed to work on looking less naughty when he was sneaky. “I think he felt very welcome with all the presents we picked out.”
That was what Dante said.
Over and over.
“Ruslan said his friend Jacki was going to love it too.” That’d made Dante groan and then he started moaning about how Professor Donaldson was going to kill them. “I don’t think he’s supposed to have glitter.”
“It’s not a limit his Daddy set up. The rule technically says he can’tbuyglitter.” Daddy shrugged. “He didn’t and even Ruslan can say he didn’t buy it either.”
Oh.
“Daddy…” Shaking my head, I looked down at my presents. “We got nice presents but you made Gary naughty.”
Daddy scoffed. “He likes being naughty.”
Maybe.
But he looked more innocent than Daddy had.
“But we did pick out good presents. Even Angel loved the new spices and sauces we found for him.” Daddy hadn’t been naughty with that one.
“Why does he like grilling?” He liked it a lot.
“Um, I think mostly it’s because Gary keeps chasing him out of the kitchen, but Gary doesn’t like fire, so he can’t chase Angel away from the grill?” Daddy shrugged like they were weird but it was okay. People were just weird sometimes. “Angel kept telling Gary how to cook stuff and then Gary would chase him out with whatever he was using at the stove and it was a mess, so they agreed it was Gary’s kitchen.”
They were weird.
“He has to share, Daddy.” That was the rules. “We have to share the kitchen.”
Everybody had to eat like everybody had to poop, so we had to share kitchens and bathrooms.
“He doesn’t like that and he ends up pouting and it was…” Daddy sighed as we went up to the house. “He’s not my sub, so I don’t have to make him behave.”
Daddy let Gary be naughty just because he got sad sometimes?
How could he be grumpy and a sucker?
“I’m not going to ask what that look is for.” Daddy glared, making me giggle. “I’m going to remember that you’re a very good boy and we had lots of fun.”
“Lots.” We still got more fun next week too. “And then you get your other presents next week and the regular Christmas.”
Daddy’s smile looked silly and naughty at the same time. “Next week is going to be even more fun.”
I crossed my fingers making Daddy laugh.
“Even if your mother is too excited to behave, we’re going to have lots of fun there too.” Daddy gave me a kiss and opened the door. “We’ll have more presents and more wonderful food and lots more time to do nothing but relax.”
Daddy liked that.
He’d worked hard and needed to recharge his energy.
Being low was probably why it’d been so easy for him to get so angry.
Low batteries were dangerous.
“We’ll do lots of relaxing, Daddy.” Oh, we could do more now. “Let’s…let’s have more cake and cuddle.”
