Playing Around

"Adam. Adam? Adam!!"

"Huh? Wha-Whats going on? what happened?"

Adam lifted his head from his desk. His eyes were blood red, his hair was all disheveled; he looked like he hasn't slept in days.

"Adam, what has gotten into you? You're not taking care of yourself."

"Hm since when did you start to care about my health? Jesse." Adam retorted. He gave a sharp glare towards Jesse who was standing in front of his desk arm crossed across her chest looking irritated. Adam got up from his desk and began browsing through all the papers scattered across the table.

"That's not the point Adam. Ever since you came back from work 3 days ago you haven't been the same since even your daughter is worried!"

Adam looked up from his papers and glared at Jesse. He opened his mouth to say something but before he had a chance to there was a small little knock from the office door. The both of them immediately turned around to face the doorway; behind the door hid a little figure of a girl; it was Emma their daughter.

"M-may I come in?" Asked Emma.

"Of course you can sweetie." Said Adam as he organized the papers on his desk then made his way towards Emma.

"Hey, you okay? You don't look well." Adam asked worriedly. He bent over and put his hand on Emma's forehead. Emma began to giggle as he did this.

"No daddy I'm fine." Emma giggled as she pushed Adams's hand away. This made Adam chuckle and he scooped her up over his shoulder and began walking to her room.

Emma giggled and playfully hit his back in an attempt to escape his grasp. Of course, it didn't affect him at all. As he ran into her room he gently set her down on the bed then yelled out "Tickle Monster!" He started to tickle her nonstop.

"Stop it! It tickles! Haha, stop it stop!" Emma yelled as she kept laughing from getting tickled. Jesse was watching from the doorway a huge grin on her face.

"Haha, okay that's enough stop playing around. Let her go, Adam, she needs to breathe." Jesse said between laughs as she walked over to them and patted Adams back as a signal to stop. Adam let go of Emma and stood up still grinning from ear to ear. Emma laughed so hard to the point she was holding her stomach. She laid on her back and began to breathe slowly to control her laughter.

Adam yawned and stretched his arms over his head before rubbing his belly. "Jeez, I'm hungry what about we go somewhere out to eat tonight?"

"Yes! yes! let's go! let's go!" Emma cheered as she jumped up and down on her bed.

"Now hold on just a minute now I never agreed yet, hmph!" Jesse pouted as she crossed her arms and turned away from them playfully. Emma and Adam glanced at each other then back at Jesse.

"Oh, please, please, please! Let's go out to eat! Please! I wanna go! I wanna go!" The both of them whined and begged. Jesse looked back at them and smirked then looked away once again.

"Hmm...fine, we could go," Jesse declared.

"Yaaay!!" Yelled out Emma and Adam excitedly.

"Okay come on come on get ready let's go!" They all laughed and giggled and began getting themselves ready for a fun night out for dinner.
