Eve grins broadly up at her Mother, moving to hug her tightly. She happily nestled into her mother’s embrace, enjoying being close and and breathed in her scent contently. “I know it will be, you always make sure our birthdays are.”
She steps back, biting her lip. The one thing she wanted the most was a pet, and she’d never dared ask before. “Tomorrow…could we possibly go to the shelter…and adopt a dog?” She blurts out her request, looking up at Selene with big blue puppy dog eyes. “Please? I promise I’ll take good care of it.”
selene accepts the hug without hesitation, a feat that had taken her years to master after her CENTURIES as a death dealer. then again, she’s changed a lot of herself for the sake of her family, and willingly so. ❛ i try very hard, eve. ❜ the words are whispered softly, but a wide smile is in place when the two women pull apart.
even after the request is made, the smile doesn’t fade. if anything, it grows. hands clasped in front of her, selene quirks a brow and then shrugs. ❛ i don’t see why not. you’ll have to ask your father as well, though… if it’ll bother anyone, it’ll be him. i think he enjoys being the pup of the family. ❜ her laughter is warm and light as she turns her attention back onto preparing the cake for the next day. ❛ just give your dad a taste of your puppy dog face. he can’t say no to that. ❜ she’ll laugh again, for eve has just given HER that same look in asking for the pet in the first place.
