“I think she saves her princess behavior for them, it’s almost like she loves them more,” With ease he shifted his daughter to sit on one of his arms so that he was able to pull Reagan in using the now free arm. “I hope you don’t have any big plans for today, because I might already have something special up my sleeves.” It was just something he had been planning for the last few months.

“Half the time I’m convinced my father loves her more than he does me. He gets all weird and mushy.” Not that she could blame him, but it was definitely weird. “I mean, the furthest I had gotten was maybe going to see my sister.” Reagan shrugged, wrapping an arm around him. “But nothing too solid yet, why? How special?”

Maxwell lifted Charlotte up into his arms with a loud groan, “You’re getting so big, princess!” His voice was light as he laughed placing a soft kiss to her forehead. “Now are you going to be a good girl for grandma and grandpa?” He knew how lucky he was that Reagan’s parents hadn’t even batted an eye at taking Charlotte in as their own, but now he wanted to make it offical.

For as little as Reagan had thought or really known to expect in the beginning, she had grown to love Charlotte more than just about anything. Pretty scary, but she was trying not to think about it too much. Especially since her family had been more open to it than she could have expected. “She’s always good for my parents.” Reagan remarked from the doorway, letting out a snort. “The less terrifying version of what I was like as a kid.”

“I think it’s more Cora. He would do anything for her after all. I think he’d even end the world if it made her happy”

“I don’t know, he might not, just so none of their kids would have to suffer. Even if they all were allowed to live, eventually Hope would get bored.”

“Depends on what one you’re talking about. If it involves pasta then it’s the same one.”

“Good to know.” Reagan laughed. “Do you think we’ll ever be capable of cooking?”

“But having a special relationship with her is worth it isn’t it?” He asked curiously raising his eyebrows despite knowing what her answer would be. Of course the two of them had a special bond that was worth all the heartache.

“Of course it’s worth it. I just didn’t think any kid would ever like me, let alone be so connected to me like she is.”

mrjwhittemore‌:

“Okay you might have a point there. Honestly how he’s survived in this family for so long is a mystery to me.”

“It’s got to do with Aunt Cora.” She shrugged with a laugh. “Or living with Derek. It was probably one of the two.”

“Considering the last time I did try to cook it didn’t turn out great I don’t blame you for checking.”

“Are we talking about the same last time or was there another one I haven’t heard about?”

[reaganxwhittemore]

maxwelljacobson‌:

“No it couldn’t be helped, but seeing the way that you love her makes it that much easier for me to be okay with how controlled we are by her because at least it’s not just me.”

“I think it’s karma for me to be wrapped around a little kid’s fingers,” Reagan laughed. “It’s retribution for being a terror to my parents when I was a baby.”

[reaganxwhittemore]

maxwelljacobson‌:

“It’s because we’re both weak with her.”

“You keep acting like that could be helped.”

[reaganxwhittemore]

thetaliawhittemore‌:

“My usual from the Chinese place down the street. He ordered it last night so I’d have it today.”

“You can’t blame me for having to check, though.”

[reaganxwhittemore]

“Just because it’s true doesn’t make me feel better about it honestly,”

“I could take after Uncle Isaac, wouldn’t that kind of be worse?”

[reaganxwhittemore]

maxwelljacobson‌:

“I think she just likes having the three of us all together.”

“Yeah, I think so too. At least she knows she’s more likely to get stuff that way.”

[reaganxwhittemore]

“Hell no. Connor banned me from even attempting to cook, but I am warming up some left overs,” Talia admitted shaking her head 

“Okay, that’s a relief,” Reagan laughed, lifting herself onto the counter out of habit. “smells good, though, what is it?”

[reaganxwhittemore]

maxwelljacobson‌:

“I don’t think it’s untrue in the slightest.”

“I don’t know, she gets really sad when you’re not around for more than like an hour.”

[reaganxwhittemore]

Talia was attempting to cook when she heard her sister’s voice, “I’m in the kitchen, Reag!”

“Oh no, you’re cooking?” Reagan laughed, letting herself in and heading to the kitchen.

“I don’t know why you’d want to be like me and not you’re own incredible self.”

“Well, I am like myself, she just happens to take a lot after you. Might wanna just accept it, pops.”
