Robyn Spending time with her Uncles and Granddad

Chapter 5: Uncle Alan

A/N: Thanks to everyone for all the support with this story. I have really enjoyed writing it. Now who thinks I should add Grandma to this story or do a one shot on her and Robyn? Also a big thank you to my beta reader Rosa241 for looking this over for me. Love ye all xxxx

"All I'm saying Alan is that she's a wee little girl, you shouldn't have said that. If you have a problem with Jo and Virgil take it up with them." Dad told me for what had to be the millionth time.

"I know. I didn't mean it, I just don't understand why Virgil and Jo are allowed to get married and me and Tin Tin aren't." Dad merely sighed at me; we've had this conversation so many times I already know what I'm getting into. "Never mind."

I quickly headed out of the office and found myself down into the kitchen to get something to eat. Tin-Tin walked into the kitchen with Robyn holding onto her hand just by looking at Robyn I could tell that she wasn't happy about something, she looked a bit upset.

"Hey Tin-Tin is Robyn OK? She looks a little upset about something." I asked my girlfriend.

"No Uncle Alan I can't find my teddy bear, I can't sleep without him." Robyn wailed.

"What do you call your teddy bear Robyn?" Asked Tin-Tin as she got down to here level and gave her a warm smile.

"I call him Cuddles please Uncle Alan help me find him?" A lost teddy bear? I remember those days.

"I tell you what, if we go and look for your teddy bear then what do you say we ask Grandma for some hot chocolate?" I asked my wee niece deciding to give this bonding thing a chance.

"Uncle Alan I am not allowed hot chocolate before bed but I can have hot milk." said Robyn with a big smile up at me.

"OK then why don't we go and find Cuddles." I asked as I held out my hand for Robyn to take it. If I am honest I really didn't think that Robyn was going to take it, but eventually she did.

"Uncle Alan what if we don't find Cuddles? What if he is lost forever?" She sniffed miserably.

"You know Robyn if your Daddy and I can save the world, I am sure I can help you find Cuddles."

"Uncle Alan what do you mean by saving the world ?" Asked Robyn. Oops.

"I think that is something your parents should talk to you about." I said to Robyn as I tapped her on the nose.

"Alan?"

"Yes Tin-Tin?"

"Why don't you tell Robyn what you do, maybe take her down to see TB3?" Asked Tin-Tin. I know that she is trying her best to make sure that I spend sometime with Robyn.

Just spending time with Robyn for these first few moments I can tell that she is such a delightful child. I am really enjoying spending time with her now.

"Uncle Alan can we go and find Cuddles now because I need him for going to bed?" Said Robyn, stifling a yawn.

"OK then we will see you later." I said as we left the kitchen.

Once we had left, we started going around to look for Robyn's teddy bear. We spent about ten minutes looking when I asked her, when was the last time she had Cuddles. She told me she left him in Dad's office. We made our to Dad's office and knocked on the door.

"Come in."

"Hey Dad, have you seen Robyn's teddy bear?

"You mean this?" Said Dad as he held up her teddy bear to her.

"Cuddles!" said Robyn as she took it from Dad and hugged him tight.

"Alan how is Robyn out of bed? I only put her in not long ago."

"I'm sorry Granddad I just missed Cuddles, I can't sleep without him." said Robyn as she looked down at the floor but Dad lifted her onto his knee.

"Its OK Angel, do you think you could let Uncle Alan put you back to bed and maybe read you a bedtime story?" Asked Dad very carefully.

"OK Granddad."

"Alan let me know how you get on with Robyn, I am very glad that you are giving Robyn a chance to get to know her."

"You know Dad, I am really starting to enjoy spending some time with Robyn now. Even if its only helping Robyn find her teddy bear." I said to Dad as I smiled back down at Robyn.

"Uncle Alan can you take me to bed now that I have Cuddles back?" Asked Robyn through her yawns.

"OK then honey lets go shall we." So we left Dad's office and made our way up to Robyn's bedroom once we got in there, I tucked Robyn into bed.

"Robyn?"

"Yes Uncle Alan?"

"I would just like to tell you how sorry I am about what I said about your Mum and Dad, I didn't mean to upset you, I also didn't mean what I said about your parents either. I was just mad and I took it out on you."

"It's ok Uncle Alan you made it up to me by helping me find Cuddles and I will love you for that." said Robyn who pulled me into a hug, I quickly knew that all was forgiven with this little girl. It's amazing how quickly children can forgive.

"OK then sweet heart, I will see you in the morning before I go and releave John from TB5." I told Robyn feeling a lot better after talking to her.

"Oh goodies so Uncle Johnny is coming home then?"

"Sure he is." I replied with a smile.

"Yeah! Night Uncle Alan." Robyn shouted as I closed the bedroom door. Now I know who Robyn best Uncle is and poor Gordon thinks it's him.
