>"You alright sunshine?" dad has come in to console me.
>"No." I mash my face into my pillow. "Amber and Sera are gonna hate me."
>"Oh come on sweetie they'll come around." I look up at him, tearing up.
>He sits on my bed, putting his arm on my back, gently rubbing.
>I look back up to him. He's warmly looking down at me, trying to soothe me.
>I turn over, arms outstretched.
>He gets the message, leaning down to scoop me up and placing me into his lap.
>I snuggle in
>"...can we watch something?"
>"Course. Here." He reaches over and grabs my laptop, opening it. He quickly taps away and pulls up some ancient anime site. He clicks on something.
>"A classic." It starts playing, some sort of space opera with heavy character focus. I like the main character, Spike. I relax in his lap. I remember doing this with him and mom so many times as a little runt.
>The episode plays out and I'm not satiated.
>"More." Like a spoiled brat I demand more attention. I'm granted it.
>"Of course." I spy my door being cracked at the corner of my eye. Mom peeking in.
>Dad does too, and waves her in.
>"Come on in starlight." she opens the door fully and steps in.
>"You two alright?" she asks
>"Yup, come on it's family anime time again." he gestures for her to come over and sit as well. She cuddles in.
>I feel an indescribable warmth in me as we start another episode.
Fin, sweet beyond belief. Short too.
