Babysitter Dues:
Of Bugs and Bunnies Chpt.4A loud 'grarr' erupted from one of the infants. Kyo looked up to find Bui chewing on something. "Bui...spit it out." He looked at her with wide, curious eyes. "Spit it out!" She pointed to the ground to emphasize her point. He looked at her once again with wide innocent eyes before spitting out a half chewed grasshopper. She chuckled and went back to her book.
'Baby demons, so mischievous.' Again she heard a 'grarr' and was about to tell Bui to spit it out when she looked up to find Ototo leaping after a baby bunny. The bunny took one look at its pursuer and Kyo could have sworn that the baby rabbit gave Ototo a funny look before leaping over the fence. Him, being the curious baby demon he is, tried to leap over the fence as well only managing to hit his head on it. Rubbing his head he wailed loudly kicking and screaming. She dropped her book in a hurry to get there all the while trying to get him to calm down "Oh, no please don't cry, it's going to be all right." She yanked him off the ground hugging him tightly. Kissing the top of his head before she set him down again.
"Kyo-Chan! He stwole my worm!" setting her book down again sighing, Kyo got up for the second time that day. She walked over to where Bui and Karasu were supposedly playing nicely. She almost cried out when she saw what they were up to. There in between them was a worm, being stretched into odd angles, wiggling and squirming trying to slither free. Squatting down she lightly pried pudgy hands from the worm and set him down behind her. The worm, taking one last scared look at the infants, slithered off. "You shouldn't be playing with worms! Worms are icky...no good, icky!" They looked at her, lips quivering, eyes wide and child-like. Smiling softly she shook her head. "Nope, not this time, lets go wash your hands."
"But Kyo...!"
"No buts mister, now march!" Yanking them up by their wrists she marched them into the house.
Setting them up on stools one at a time she showed them how to wash their hands. They didn't take a liking to the idea very much. They splashed each other, getting soap all down their clothes and in their hair. Kyo sighed slapping her forehead. 'Aye! What am I going to do with them?' When they had enough they yawned and pressed themselves into Kyo half falling asleep. They left the bathroom floor wet and soapy, each other drenched and a very worn out Kyo, who had on an attire of bubbles. She stripped them while walking out to the yard. She left their clothes to lie out on the grass to dry and looked upon the others to make sure they were ok. When everything looked fine Kyo put each sleeping baby under her arm and carried them to be changed. Settling them into their cribs she kissed their foreheads and went back outside.
"Kyo-Chan...! I nweed a diapy change!" She sighed and made her way out of the chair for the third time that day. Expressionlessly she picked up a pouting Sakyo and made her way inside. Without pausing to stop she plucked a diaper out of the bag on the kitchen table and lightly whacked Sakyo on the head with it. "That was for making me get up." He pouted childishly at her folding his arms and making a little 'hmph!' before facing the other way.
"Mad ne?" She said grinning, kissing the top of his head.
Lifting his feet by the ankles she swapped on a new diaper. "Think you'll be good for a while?" He just looked at her and nodded grinning happily. "Good."
She lightly smacked his rear ushering him out the sliding glass door. She plopped down on the cool tile floor, shutting her eyes letting the cool air waft around her. Ani came crawling over looking at her with round, curious eyes before settling himself on her stomach. "Oomph! What's up?" She asked peering at him from her position on the floor.
"Me tiwered!"
"All right. Lets go." Scooping him up into her arms she staggered to her feet. She yanked a pale green baby blanket from a pile on the counter before heading to the room. She wrapped the downy blanket around him before rocking him to sleep.
Sleep, my child, and peace attend thee,
All through the night;
Guardian angels God will send thee,
All through the night;
Soft the drowsy hours are creeping,
Hill and vale in slumber sleeping,
I my loving vigil keeping,
All through the night.
While the moon her watch is keeping,
All through the night;
While the weary world is sleeping,
All through the night;
O'er thy spirit gently stealing,
Visions of delight revealing,
Breathes a pure and holy feeling,
All through the night.
She smiled as she turned out the light and went to sit down out in the sun.
