-Protective Father-
(Bate / Emma)
"E-ELLIE!!!!"
The Squishy nearly jumped out of bed when she heard Bate's frantic call. She quickly dashed out of the room and rushed over to where her husband was at- which was Emma and Kade's room. There, she saw Bate pacing back and forth in a rather panicked state. When he noticed her standing in the doorway, he ran over and grabbed to arm to drag her to one of cribs. Ellie had a good idea what it was, so she decided to explain before he could say a word.
"Bate, calm down. Emma just has a cold."
"A cold? B-but Ellie!"
He was still worried. The elder looked back at his ill daughter and flinched when he heard the tiny coughs and sniffles she made. This didn't calm him down one bit. The last thing he wanted to see his beloved child suffering from the cruel hardships and endeavors of a horrible, horrendous cold! He faced Ellie again and started to bombard her with questions.
"B-but what is it? Is it a fever? How serious is it? Should we go to the doctor? W-what caused it? How long is it going to last?" All of this was to much for fear stricken Puff. He clutched his chest in grief and fell to the floor. "Oh, curse Nova for getting my precious Emma sick. Why couldn't it have been me?!"
Ellie just let out a laugh at the scene unraveling before her. It was quite rare to see him in such a overly protective state. Then again, ever since she gave birth to the twins, Bate's been nothing but protective. She helped him get up and tried to ease the situation for him.
"Bate, there's nothing to worry about. It's a very minor cold, and it should go away within a few days." She said.
"But-!"
"And as a nurse!" She cut him off. "You should trust me, alright? I already gave her some medicine before she went to bed, so please stop stressing- it's not healthy for you."
Ellie watched as Bate turned his attention back to Emma, still worried. She lightly shook her head and grabbed his wing to drag him away from the crib.
"I appreciate your fatherly concern, dear, but Emma won't get any better with you looming over her every second. Let her rest and we'll see tomorrow."
"W-wait, Ellie!"
Ellie didn't listen and continued to drag his husband out of the room. She closed the door and spent the rest of the night comforting the most overly protective father in Kalmari.
