[ after albert and brianna declared their plans to go out on a date for the rest of the evening, she took it upon herself to personally watch lyssa until they returned home, despite her former plans with her boyfriend. it's with that change (and realization of what she did at the very last moment) that she calls up caleb to tell him the news, sounding disappointed until she gleefully casually suggested that he come over to help. after some convincing that yes, albert won't be here and yes, she'll wait for him by the door, is done and over with, she happily skips down the stairs after telling lyssa's personal ninja butler that she'll be back shortly.

plops down on the second to last step of the stairs while happily swaying and humming to herself, her eyes planted on the doorway to wait for caleb to enter. ]

[ eyebrow stays up while looking completely unfazed. ]

Mm. As are you.

[ walks up to him, shoving the item into his chest. ]

FINE. Take your stupid album! I don't need it anyway! But just know this will really disappoint Caleb and--

--OH, NO! CALEB!!

[ starts pushing at albert, grunting and nudging with all her might. ]

GET OUTTA MY WAY YOU STUPID MOP-HEAD!

[ tucks the album carefully against his chest while staring down at his baby sister. not moving. ]

Hm? What is the emergency?

[childsized.livejournal.com]

YOU KNOW WHAT! I know you know that he was here and you LIKE making him run off and--

[childsized.livejournal.com]

[ starts whimpering when she realizes she's getting nowhere with the shoving, pounding on his chest (or around that region) with her fists. ]

Move! Move, you jerkface, move-!!

[prideofcontrol.livejournal.com]

[ blows from which he manages to shield himself from by shifting the album over a little so that her fists are hitting its covers. ]

I do hope you are not using such language before Lyssa.

[childsized.livejournal.com]

No, but I'm using it on YOU! [ pound pound pound... before she starts looking really pathetic, placing her palms over the album. ] You scared him and that's not fair! He never does anything wrong... So let me get to him so I can calm him down!

[prideofcontrol.livejournal.com]

[ peers down at her curiously but finally leans away from the doorway a little. ]

Such accusations. Be assured that I have done no such thing. The nursery was to be my second stop.

[childsized.livejournal.com]

Just you being around scares him off! And you know it. [ huffs, sticking her nose up in the air as she wiggles past him. ] So goodbye!

[prideofcontrol.livejournal.com]

[ nope. walking after her leisurely. ]

If you so wish to believe.

[childsized.livejournal.com]

... [ eyebrow twitches, moving a bit faster. ] I don't need to wish, because it's already true!

[prideofcontrol.livejournal.com]

[ he... doesn't need to move any faster. he has normal-people strides. ]

To you, perhaps. Rigidity of thought is bad for personal growth, baby sister.

[childsized.livejournal.com]

[ ... fine. moves as fast as her little legs can carry her. ]

I have no time for your lectures! Begone!

[prideofcontrol.livejournal.com]

[ still keeping up with his pace with hands in his pockets, even. ]

I wish to visit my son, so I'll have to decline.

[childsized.livejournal.com]

[ makes a little rrrrring noise, deciding to just flail in the direction of the nursery and-- looks even more panicked when her boyfriend is nowhere in sight when they arrive. ]

C-CALEB?! Where did you go!

[ crawls on the floor, looking underneath the crib. ]

[prideofcontrol.livejournal.com]

[ pays nathania no mind, going straight to the crib itself to peer over at his son. lightly brushes at his cheeks with two fingers before starting to play with his hair.

... then seems to give in & simply picks up his baby boy to cradle him against his chest fondly. ]

I missed you, little caterpillar.

[ while she's a crying heap on the floor, whimpering and whining pathetically. (my poor puppy... waaah...) after she's done she jumps up, pointing at albert. ]

This is all your fault!!

[childsized.livejournal.com]

[ --and then peeks over at lyssa for a brief moment, lifting up as best as she can to kiss his little cheek. ]

Bye bye, little one. I love you~

[childsized.livejournal.com]

[ KICKS ALBERT'S SHIN then flies off, shouting CALEB! WHERE ARE YOOOU? in the distance. ]

[echolocating.livejournal.com]

[ cowering in the starbucks closest to the mansion. after sitting in high-alert fear, he finally seems to gather enough courage to peel himself out of his chair & toward a payphone.

dialing. ring ring ring... ]
