Follows him down the steps. Both greet Alyssa.
She whispers as she reaches out to take Alice from Edgar.
“Thank you guys so much and sorry for being late.”
Girl won’t let go at first, pulling Edgar’s headband off and along with her, clutching it tight:
“Hmmm.”
Zoe laughs at the headband coming off. Really had it gripped.
“We had fun.”

The child’s clinging to him in her sleep. He stands, picking her up:
“I will.”
With a tilt of his head, he heads downstairs, carrying Alice.

“I don’t want to be rude and make her think she has to rush.”
With a sigh and look from Edgar she grabs his phone. She searches his contacts and finds her number. Then calls and speaks sofly as Alyssa answers. Saying she is on her way over at the moment.
“She’s on her way.” says Zoe hanging up.
Edgar throws his head back and sighs:
“I’m tired.”
“Still want a baby?” she laughs.
Eyes closed, amused:
“Hmmm. Yes.”
At that moment Alyssa texts saying she is outside the shop.
“She is here.” Gets up from her spot and turns off the TV. “You want to take her or should I?”

I’m stuck. Alice. Initiative, use it. He half points in the direction of where his cell is lying on the window sill.

“Oh no, those means guys are gonna hurt the puppies. Edgar do something!” yells Alice. Worried about those puppies.
Zoe lightly slaps Edgar’s arm. “Yea do something.”
He elbows Zoe:
“They’ll be alright.”
The film is edging towards its end and Cruella DeVille is trudging through a farm, failing and some hours have passed but Alyssa is still not back.
Zoe noticed Alice lay her head against Edgar. Rubbing her eyes, they are becoming quit heavy. Just an awwww in her heart right now. In the matter of minutes the little girl fell asleep on Edgar.
A big smile on this woman’s face right now as she looked at Edgar. He just looked so unphased by it.
Past midnight now. Edgar doesn’t dare move. Soft, sleepy sounds coming from Alice, he looks at Zoe through the corner of his eye:
“Call her,“ meaning Alyssa.
“I don’t have her number, she is your friend.”

Edgar’s quiet again for a long while, observing. The way Zoe is with Alice touches him.
“Oh no, those means guys are gonna hurt the puppies. Edgar do something!” yells Alice. Worried about those puppies.
Zoe lightly slaps Edgar’s arm. “Yea do something.”

“Any kid friendly movie Edgar?” she asks.
Alice is eating the popcorn and the bowl’s half empty by the time they find something suitable. They put on 101 Dalmatians.
Wasn’t too long till all three were cuddled up on the couch. A blanket in their laps to keep warm. Alice stated she had never seen this movie before and was excited. She was in love with it already. Zoe looked over at Edgar and kissed him lightly on the cheek.
Love you, she whispered.
Vague taxidermy references in this film make Edgar think of Alan. This time around he doesn’t miss when trying to kiss Zoe, very subtle and discreet:
“Really? So what are your favorite movies?” he asks Alice.
“I like princess movies. Alice and Rapunzel are my favorite princess’s.” she responds. “You like those movies?”
Lie or not lie is the question. He remembers Andrea telling him about some Disney characters:
“She had… Hair. Rapunzel had… hair. Wonderful hair.”
Shut up…
“Yes she did, good job.” said Alice. “Aww cute puppies.” she says pointing at the TV.
Zoe catches herself running her fingers through Alice’s hair. She stops herself and eats what left of the popcorn.
“They are cute.”
