Hiatus
by Princess CC
"Mommy...Xander's shooting me with his gun again! Tell 'im to stop!"
The little dark haired, blue eyed 6 year old ran in circles around the kitchen, almost knocking over a chair in the process.
Cordelia put her hand to her forehead as she leaned against the counter. She took a deep breath and spoke sternly.
"Alexander! Stop chasing your sister! And put that gun away! The squealing sounds are giving me a headache!"
Her 10 year old son groaned and ran a hand through his dark brown hair. He looked at her with deep brown puppy eyes.
"Aww Mom...I ain't doin' nothin..."
"Now! And don't talk like that...you sound like your father..."
Xander sighed but nodded and ran out into the livingroom, almost running into his father on the way.
Doyle walked into the kitchen, tousling is son's hair as he rushed past.
"Slow down, Xander...ye might hurt yerself..."
Anne smiled and ran toward her dad, fling herself into his arms.
"Da!!!"
Doyle swung her around in the air then hugged her close to him.
"How's me little princess today? Being good fer yer mommy?"
Anne nodded as Doyle kissed her on the top of the head and set her down.
"Go play sweetie..."
Anne smiled and rushed off into the living room.
Doyle walked over to Cordelia and pulled her into his arms.
"How was yer day, love?"
Cordelia groaned and looked down at her large stomach.
"Being pregnant during the summer is so not fun! Good thing I'm on hiatus from my show...otherwise they'd be doing close ups of my face every scene! I'm huge!!"
Doyle chuckled and kissed her nose.
"But in a good way Princess..."
Cordelia smacked him lightly.
"Hey! You weren't supposed to agree with me!"
A loud crash sounded from the living room and they gave each other knowing looks, yelling in unison.
"Xander!!!!"
See told you it was just FLUFF! :)
