Chapter 4

Everyone had finished their lunch and took Missy out to play.

"Daddy play with me"

Mandy groaned When do I get attention! Becca sat back and watched them. It was as if Nick had been a dad all along. Maybe it was the fact he was a big kid. Missy crawled out of the balls.

"Mommy you play too" Missy grabbed her hand.

"Say 'cheese'" Brian took a quick pic. "Unky BriBri" Missy ran out and started chasing him. After about an hour there everyone was very tired.Except for Missy( damn child hood energy).

~~~~~~~~~

Later that night Missy, Nick and Becca took a walk on the beach. Missy was on his shoulders with Becca at his side.

"So whats her full name?" Nick asked Becca.

"Melissa Caroline Carter. I thought it would be wonderful to have her god- aunts name. But now it's so Missy will always remember her."

"I know"

"Listen Nick. I'm sorry for not telling it it's just..." He put a finger to her lips.

"It's okay. Never live life on regrets right?"

"Yeah" she smiled.

"Lets go sit over there" Nick pointed. B layed the blanket out. Missy crwaled in between her parents and laid her head on Nicks lap. Within minutes she was asleep.

"Becca where did it all go?"

"I don't know. I wish I would have said something. Missy needed her daddy. I tryed. I don't know how well I did."

Nick wiped her tears away "You did a great job. Shes a wonderful, beautiful little girl. Just like her mommy" Nick smirked.

"Yeah I know" She teased.

"We should get going" Nick picked Missy up and they all headed back to the hotel

~~~~~~~~~~~~

He laid Missy gently in her bed but she stirred.

"Daddy will you stay with me tonight?"

"Sure baby"

"Here sweety. PJ time"

"Yeah!" Missy jumped up on the bed.

"Becca, what's PJ time" Nick whispered.

"Missy show daddy PJ time"

"Otay "(Lindz hahahaha)She grabbed his hand. "First you have to get in your Pj's"

"Let me go get mine" He walked next door and knocked.

Mandy opened the door wearing a teddy. It worked!. She nibbled on his ear. Nick moaned.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Missy fell asleep crying of course.She gently shook her. "Missy honey go to Uncle Brians room"

"Okay" she mumbled. Becca banged on Nicks door. "Nickolas Gene Carter! Open this damn door!!!"

"What" He jerked the door open, with only boxers on.

"When are you gonna grow up?!? You left your daughter cying just cos you wanna get laid!!Go back to doing that hoe!!We dont need you anymore." She slammed the door in his face. Her eyes watered but Becca held them back. She knocked on Bri's door.

"Mommy I'm hungrey" Becca laughed.

"Lets go get some yum yum" They walked back into the room. Nick sat on the bed in his PJ's.

"Whats next Missy?"

"Brush your teeth but not now cos mommy said we get fries"

"Mmmm yummy. I'll call room service."

"Yeah" Missy grabbed her teddy and sat in Nicks lap.

"Okay. It'll be here in a few minutes. What do we do till then?"

"TV"

"Missy you are just like your dad. Food and Tv are your main prioties." "Hey!" Nick picked Becca and started tickling her.

"AHHH! Nick stop!!Missy help me!!!" Missy grabbed onto Nicks leg. Mandy walked in.

"Nick are you coming to bed tonight?"

"No"

"Oh. Well hi Missy, I'm Mandy." She stuck her hand out but Missy hid behind Nick. "See ya later Nick"

Just then room service knocked." Coming!" Nick yelled. He put Becca down, Missy was still attached to his leg.

"Thank you" Nick said. The bell boy looked at him oddly.(Am I crazy or is that something my mom would say 'bell boy'. Dorko me!)

"We have food!" Missy grabbed a plate and sat down on the bed.

"Missy don't spill it"

"Okay Daddy" Becca reached for a plate just as Nick did. Their hands touched. They both pulled away feeling the spark.

"Mommy what channel is Discovery?" She quickly grabbed the book.

"Umm, 34"

"Shes watching smart channels just like you"

"I didn't want her to end up like her dad" Becca hit Nicks tummy.

"Owww" He yelled in mock pain. Nick sat behind Missy. He stole one of her fries. "MMM yummy"

"Mommy, daddy stole my fry"

"Nick say sorry"

"Sorry princess" He hugged her and kissed her cheek.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After the snack Missy laid her head on Nicks chest.Nick wrapped his arms around her.

"Daddy can you sing me to sleep? Thats the last thing in PJ time"

"Yeah baby" He began singing 'I Need You Tonight'. She was out in no time.

"Becca you want me to leave."

"Shut up and go to sleep."

"Night Bear"

"Night Nick- Nack" Becca snuggled up close to Missy. She wrapped her arm around her and fell into a contnted sleep.
