She hadn’t been especially pleased to come home and find out Amanda had let him sleep over at Mel’s, but she held her tongue, knowing Amanda was his guardian too.
“What’s wrong with this one,” Becky asked, taking Jamie off Mel’s hip and putting him on her own.
“I specifically ordered a sad one, and this one is happy. You owe me a refund or a new Jamie Bear.”
“How did he behave,” Becky asked.
“I behaved fine, thank you very much,” Jamie said on his own behalf.
“He was good as gold.”
“Good,” Becky said and mouthed ‘thank you’ to Mel.
“What did you guys do?”
“We went and got pizza, and then we snuggled,” Jamie said.
“Ooo, you love snuggles with your Aunt Mel.”
“Ooo, yes, he does,” Mel said.
“So are you done being sad,” Becky asked him.
“I told you I just needed one more day.”
“You did. Mel, wanna stay for lunch?”
“There he is!” Amanda said as she got to the bottom of the stairs. “I missed you so much!”
“I was just gone for the night.”
“But it was your first night away from us.” She gave him a wet kiss on the cheek. “Were you a good boy?”
“No, I drew on the walls and pulled the dog’s tail and loosened the caps on everything in the spice cabinet,” he said.
“Is your Aunt Mel a bad influence? Because you’re never this sarcastic in the morning.”
“I am, too,” he said, defending his ability to be sarcastic any time of day.
“How about a bath,” Amanda offered.
“Can Mel come,” he asked. Becky passed Jamie to Amanda.
“If she doesn’t mind the sight of nude Jamie Bears,” Amanda replied.
“I’m used to them,” Mel told Amanda.
“He’ll squirt you with his bath toys, too.”
“I’ll just splash back,” Mel shrugged.
“He bites.”
“I do not,” Jamie said.
“He lies about not biting. And he pees in the tub sometimes.”
“All littles do that,” Jamie and Mel said at the same time.
