Chapter 15

Gideon

As everything in my head started to clear, I knew I had a decision to make. But since it wasn’t a tough one, I let the part of my brain that suggested I be an adult now go back into hiding. Besides, even if I wasn’t little anymore, that didn’t mean I wanted to make real decisions.

I just wanted to make small ones.

“Daddy?” Nuzzling my face against his neck, I refused to worry about what had happened and just focused on all the nice things he’d said and how he was proud of me.

“Yes, baby?” He kissed my head and kept rocking us.

“Thirsty.” When he chuckled, I giggled and snuggled closer. “Cookies?”

Daddy laughed and hugged me tight, making me feel light and almost silly. I’d never been able to make anyone happy just by being me and it was an addicting feeling. “Yes, baby. But how about cookies and then a bottle of milk?”

Oh.

“Lots of cookies?” That sounded perfect.

The bottle too.

Daddy laughed again. “Maybe. We’ll see about lots. But first, look at Daddy. I have to ask you a question.”

“Oreos?” Sitting up, I thought about the cookies. “Oh, chocolate chip?”

He was grinning, so I kissed his cheek as he responded. “I don’t know what I’ve got, baby, but we’ll look. But first, before it gets too late and good boys need to go to bed, I need to know what you want.”

Real decisions?

Shaking my head, I cuddled back against him. “Cookies, Daddy.”

Would Daddy get mad—or worse, disappointed—I didn’t want to decide?

I didn’t want him sad.

“Daddy mad?” I wanted him to be happy Daddy, but I didn’t want to do anything harder than beg for cookies.

And cartoons.

I’d beg for more cartoons.

He’d think that was cute.

“Daddy will never be mad with his boy.” He kissed my head and hugged me tight before running his hands down my back again.

When he got to my bottom, I giggled. “Tushie.”

My bottom was still hanging out.

Daddy chuckled and gave it a pat. “A very pretty tushie.”

That made me wiggly for some reason and I squirmed more. “Silly Daddy.”

That got me another pat.

I liked this game.

Wiggling it again, I giggled. “More, silly Daddy.”

He laughed. “You’re going to distract me.”

That sounded like a very good idea.

But he just stroked and cuddled me, not doing anything else silly even though my cutie parts liked the touches. Daddy was thinking about real things again.

He kissed my head and I got another hug. “We’re going to get you cookies first. Then we’ll give you a bath, and then I’ll give you a bottle when I tuck you into bed, but I need to know what time to get my sweet boy breakfast tomorrow.”

I was going to stay with Daddy?

Popping up, I searched his face. “Daddy?”

Daddy smiled and kissed my cheek. “Yes, baby. I made the decision, so all you have to do is be a good boy when you get a bath.”

I felt my face heating up when I peeked over at his bed, so I curled into his chest again.
