Little Angel's New Home

Hero flew them slowly all the way here. Letting her see the world from his view point. He slowed down a bit more as a beautiful white manor came into view. He looked down. "Look. Home is right ahead." He said with a smile. Slowly landing outside the entrance of his home. He held her close and kissed the top of her head. "We are home little angel. Would you like to stay with me for a few nights? or longer? The bed is really big and it might make you feel safer." He said softly. Opening the front door and carried her inside. He set her on his feet while sol chirped away to Ella like the little girl could understand her. He held her hand after Sol climbed up her shoulder and sat on it. Tail still wagging away. "Like the place Ella?"

She looked around and smiled as they flew and looked at the house, "Wow." She breathed and blinked looking all around as the landed and smiled looking up at Hero, "Longer." She said happily and laughed and gigged as she smiled and looked at Sol who was on her shoulder and looked around. She looked at him, "It's like a castle!" She exclaimed and smiled as she ran into the house more looking all around, "Yeah!" She giggled and did what any three and a half year old would do....run around! She climbed the stairs carefully and looked at Hero, "Play?" She asked with a smile with Sol still on her shoulder.

Hero smiled at her reaction to the house. When she answered his question about where she wanted to stay he nodded his head. "Alright little angel. We can do that." He said with a smile. He followed her and nodded his head. In a sense it was. It was his personal castle. Though it was much smaller than the castle but it was still big. Especially to a child. He followed her in completely and shut the door. Watching her run around. He followed her over to the stairs. Smiling at her. "Sure." He said with a smile. Picking her up and puts her legs over his shoulder. Holding her up there while Sol held onto her. He takes her upstairs and into a room he had that had lots of toys in it. He honestly had hoped to have a big family one day. So he bought toys ahead of time. He lifted her from his shoulders and set her on the ground in front of him. "What do you want to play?" he asked. Letting her decide what they would play.

She smiled as they went into a room and her eyes got huge when she saw all the toys and just stood there wonderstruck. She looked back at Hero a bit confused before clutching the doll in her arms and looked around at all the toys and bent over putting Cami on the ground and pulled out a wooden toy car and looked at it before she go on her knees and put it on the floor ever so gently. It was clear she was a bit worried it was a trick but she continued to quietly look and pulled out a wooden

Hero watched her standing their wonderstruck. He smiled at her. "I always wanted to have a family of my own Ella. So I went and bought toys ahead of time. So they would already be here when I had kids of my own." He explained at her look of confusion. He watched her put Cami on the ground. Looking at her as she pulled out a toy car. Then watched her pull out a wooden castle. He picked up a wooden puppet of a man. It was small. He walked it over to Ella. He sits down on the ground midway to her. Just waiting for Ella to be ready to play.

She looked over at Hero and put the castle by him and took the little girl and sat down next to him and brought Cami over and set her in her lap and just stared at the two things like they where dangerous objects, poor little girl. Then she smiled and put the girl in the kitchen sitting at the table hoping she was doing this right, "Look! She is sitting at the table while her um...huband is out." She said and clapped her hands. obviously if he would look watch her and see how excited she was going to the kitchen was a big deal in her old home. She smiled and pointed to him. "Wat he gunna do?" She asked him with a smile asking him what he would have the boy doll do.

Hero picked up the boy doll and sat on the ground across from Ella. Smiling a bit then stopped. Well that was quite revealing. He shook his head a bit. He would have to show her that the kitchen was not a big deal for people who want to spend time together. He moved the doll and walked him over to the girl. "He is gonna take his wife out to the pond. Dip thier feet in the cute pond with the little gold fish." He said. Standing her doll up with his. Guiding her doll outside. Sitting his on the edge of a makeshift patch on the carpet inside to work as the pond. Making his look up at hers. "Come now darling won't you join me in sitting by the pond? It is a beautiful day to relax outside...don't you think?" he asked in a pretend voice. Sounding really goofy and was trying to so he could make Ella laugh. "The husband loves to take his wife outside the house. Take her on dates and show her the world. Make her feel like the specialist woman in the world." He said. Little subtle cues. He looked at Ella. "What is the wife going to do now?" he asked kindly.

She watched Hero and giggled and laughed ans she leaned forward on his hands and smiled. She looked at him as she looked really confused at what Hero was saying and blinked looking at him as he gave her the little clues and took the doll, "I don't know. We never went to a pond before." She said touching the doll's hair and looked up at him, "What do other peoples do?" She asked with a cute confused little voice.

Hero watched her giggling and laughing and smiled. Watcher her lean forward on her hands. "Want to go to a pond now? I have one out back. It has cute little fish in it." He said softly. "Other people sit together and talk. Watching the clouds or the fish in the pond. They interact with each other. Tell each other how their day went. They treat each other kindly and take care of one another." He said. Telling her a few things about what people do. "People who care about each other don't treat each other like you saw your mommy being treated. They listen and don't confine them to a kitchen. They let them branch out and spread their figurative wings." He said as he smiled at her. "Like now you are able to play and make friends. Do things any kid would do. Make mistakes. Learn new games. Try new things."

Ella had nearly forgotten about the game and she blinked listening to Hero and just stared at him as he explained things, "They care about each other? and talk? And see fishies?" She asked pushing herself up and walking over to Hero and sitting on his knee and looked up at him, "Tell me more?" She asked holding the doll and smiled up to him.

Hero looked at her as she blinked and just stared at him. Running a hand through her pale golden locks. "Yes. People can care about each other. Whether its just in a friendship way. Or if its in the I love you and want to be part of your life forever...way." He said. "People who care about each other talk. While they might fight sometimes when they really care for someone once they both calm down they will talk it over and work things out. They won't hit each other even if they are fighting. Sometimes they will yell at each other but when people care about each other they won't start hitting each other." He looked down at her as she sat on his knee. Wrapping an arm around her lovingly.

"I have someone I love Ella. Her name is Emma. She is a sweet and beautiful young woman who I protect with my life. That is something people do when they care about someone...they protect them. Like I would protect you from danger. I would do the same for her. She is the love of my life and because I care about her I would never hit her. I don't have a violent bone in my body save when it comes time to protect those who are special to me." He looked at the pond. "When you care about someone you compromise, or meet each other halfway, on things. Say I wanted to go to the beach and Emma wanted to go shopping. One way to work it out is to do both things. Or for me to let Emma have what she wants that day."

He kissed the top of Ella's head. "Hugs are a good way of showing someone you care about them. I will give you lots and lots of hugs Ella. If you are bad I won't hit you...I'll take away toys for awhile. Discipline doesn't have to be equated with pain. You don't have to hit someone to show them that say taking something that isn't theirs without asking is wrong." He said. Explaining it as best he could. "What else would you like to know Ella?"
