Chapter 1: Goodnight Kisses

Grus closed the door to his new daughters bedroom. He was exhausted, yet he knew he wouldn't get any sleep that night. He had too many thoughts running through his mind. Just that day, he had stolen the moon, almost gotten his girls killed, and sealed a deal with the three girls that wouldn't ever be broken. He had a family, a family that, strange enough, he couldn't imagine living without anymore. He'd always liked living alone, but once those three girls stepped into his life, he found himself enjoying the constant energy in the house.

He adored the girls. Each of their personalities were so unique. His eldest, Margo was the one with the intelligence and wit. She was wise beyond her years. She had to grow up fast, he supposed, for her sisters' sake. He was proud of Margo. Edith was the little troublemaker, the one most like him. She had a large heart, but she was also mischievous, which got her into trouble more than her sisters. When he first got to know Edith, he was reminded of himself as a child. The way she acted was exactly like he did as a child. Then there was Agnes. The youngest of the three had stolen his heart very quickly. She was naive and innocent, and like Edith, a bundle of energy. She was obsessed with unicorns, and Gru already had plans to make her a real unicorn. He didn't know how, or why, but the three girls were his family now and he wouldn't trade them for the world.

Just as predicted, Gru hadn't been able to sleep that night. He got up early and began to make breakfast for the girls, although he knew they wouldn't be awake for a few hours. Margo came into the kitchen soon after Gru began making pancakes.

"Good morning, Margo. How deed yoo sleep?"

"I slept really good. I still can't believe we're here for good."

"Believe it, keedo. Yoo and yoor seestors are my family now. Nothing weel ever change dat."

Margo smiled. "Thanks, Mr. Gru."

"No problem. Yoor seestors are steele asleep?"

Margo nodded. "Agnes should be up soon. Edith loves to sleep, so she probably won't be up for a few hours."

Gru chuckled as he set a plate in front of Margo. Agnes walked in the kitchen holding her unicorn toy, the one Gru had won for her at Super Silly Fun Land.

"Good Morning, Agnes."

"Good morning, Mr. Gru. Did you make breakfast?"

"I deed. Here yoo go." He handed Agned her plate.

"Should I wake Edith? Her breakfast will get cold," Margo asked.

"No, no. Let 'er sleep. I weel heat up 'er breakfast when she weakes up."

No sooner had he said that did Edith come downstairs. "Morning," The girl said as she sat down next to her sisters.

"Morning, Edith. Here yoo go,: Gru said, giving his daughter her plate.

"Thanks," Eaith said, as she began eating.

Gru smiled at his daughters. He would never had imagined that he would be a father.

Gru and the girls went to the mall later on that day, to buy more things for the girls' bedroom. Gru, being new to fatherhood, bought the girls almost anything they requested.

"Thank you, Mr. Gru, for buying us all of this." Margo said during the shopping trip.

"Eet ees no problem, Margo. I want my 'ome to begin feeling like yoor 'ome."

Edith and Agnes skipped ahead the two of them and Gru chuckled.

"Go join yoor seestors. Peeck out something nice for yoorself."

Margo smiled at Gru and went to look at decorations with her sisters.

"Mr. Gru come look with us!" Agnes said.

"I weel be right dere." Gru said, smiling, feeling very lucky to have his daughters in his life.

After a full day of shopping, Gru took the girls to get pizza and ice cream on the way home. He helped them set up the decorations they had bought earlier in their room and then helped them get ready for bed. Finally, it was bedtime.

"Goodnight, Edith." Gru said, kissing his middle child's forehead. "I love yoo,"

"I love you, too." The blonde said, tiredly closing her eyes.

"Goodnight, Agnes. I love yoo." Gru kissed her forehead, just like he had done with Edith.

"I love you, too, Mr. Gru."

Gru then turned to Margo. "Goodnight, Margo. I love yoo."

"Goodnight, Mr. Gru. I love you, too."

Gru turned and left the room, quietly shutting the door. Gru smiled. Goodnight kisses were his favorite part of the day.
