Beauty and the Beast [A modern day tale] - Chapter 159：King snowman (156)

Oliver got up and went to Olly.

“Good morning my cute Olly. You need to use the potty?”

Olly shook his head, “Up up potty”

Oliver picked him up and took him into the bathroom. Olly sat there humming a song. “Done”

Oliver cleaned him up and took him back to his room. “Want to get dressed?”

“Yes, dada yes.” Olly sang out.

Oliver stoped. His heart beat faster at the word Dada. He got Olly dressed and took him down stair. He fixed him some cereal and after Olly ate he put on a show for Olly to watch.

Rose came down next in her gown and Oliver made her some cereal too. He went upstairs and got a warm out fit to put on her.

Trevor finally made his way down already dressed warm. He ate quickly then asked to go out to build a snow man.

Oliver bundled all three up plus himself and they went out and played in the snow.

Betty woke and wondered where Oliver went to but then thought he must have to work and did not want to disturb her. She looked at the time and wondered why Olly was not talking about the potty like he did every morning.

She got up and went into his room. It was empty. She then went into Trevor’s room. It was empty. She then checked Rose’s room to find it empty too.

She knocked on Bert’s door and when he opened up he said, “What is it?”

“Are the kids with you?” she asked.

“No, why?” he was trying to wake up.

“They are not in their rooms.”

They both went downstairs and still no kids but she noticed four bowls in the sink and a cereal box on the table.

Bert looked out the window and said, “Found them. I’m going back to bed.” He then went back up the stairs.

Betty looked out the window to see all four of them building a snowman. Olly was laughing as he help Oliver push one of the balls around. Rose was helping Trevor push one around.

She put on a pot of coffee and watched the snowman come alive.

Soon he was standing tall wearing Oliver’s scarf. Betty opened the door. “Hot chocolate anyone?”

They all came in. She made hot chocolate as they took off their wet cloths and was put into dry one. Oliver downed a large cup of coffee.

“Did you have fun?” She asked as she gave him a kiss.

“Yes mam. Been a long time since I played in the snow.” He said.

After they warmed up Betty put on a movie for them to watch.

Oliver came up behind her and wrapped his arms around her, “Olly called me dada this morning.”

She smiled, “does that mean you want to adopt them?”

“I want us to be one family so that answer is a yes.” he turned her around for a kiss.

Josh was up early making breakfast for everyone. Pancakes, eggs, bacon, and fruit.

As the Boys came down they quickly ate and then went out to have a snow ball fight.

Ben had went up to get Maggie. He changed and dress her a long with Kimmy. They then “sat and ate. Soon George and Angela came down.

As they ate breakfast Angela said, “We talked about it last night and we both agree to help you. I will carry your babies for you.”

Josh hugged her and was in tears at her willingness to help them out.

After breakfast Ben took the girls out to play in the snow for a little while. The snowball fight was over and the boys were building a snowman each to see who could make the best one.

When they were done they asked Ben to be judged. Kimmy walked over and said, “Papa this one should win. He has a crown on.”

Sam smiled that was his snowman. Ben then said by order of princess Kimmy King snowman wins.”

“Hahaha I beat you I’m better the you are.” Sam dances around.

Soon it was time for lunch so they all went in and got into dry warm cloths. Sally, Mike, and Henry were there when they came in.

“Grandpa, I built the best snowman.” Sam said.

When Maggie was all change she walked over and held out her arms.

“Dad she want’s you to hold her.” Josh said.

He reached down and picked her up. She snuggled up on his lap and sucked her thumb till she fell asleep in his arms.

“So this is what it’s like to have a girl.” He said. “Josh, you are one lucky man.”

Betty made tomato soup with grilled cheese for Lunch.

Then Bert went into the basement and brought up several boxs.

“What is all that for?” Trevor asked.

“Well every year of my life the Day after Thanksgiving was the day we put up our christmas tree and decorate the house. So who want to help Me and Bert.” Betty said.

All the kids cheered. Bert got the tree set up with the lights and the kids went threw the box of ornaments. She explained the ornaments and when they were added to the tree. Then she said as they get and make ornaments they would be added too.

Bert and Trevor went out side to put the lights up and place Santa and his deer on the lawn. When night came they all went out to see how it looked and it was beautiful.

Then they turned off all the lights in the house and lite up the tree.

Everyone had a great time. As they sat around watching movies Betty asked, “With you two getting married in a few weeks; And Oliver and me getting married soon. Is it going to be a problem living together still?” She asked.

“Betty, Lily and I talked about it and we like living together. The kids love each other and we still have one spare room if needed. How about you?” Bert asked.

“I love having two family as One. I just wanted to make sure.” She said.

Oliver sat back and listened to them talk. Did he want to live with Bert and Lily. He did love Rose and like doing things with her. As he was lost in thought Betty hit him.

“Hey are you going to answer me?” She said.

“Sorry what was the question?” he asked.

“Do you want to go pick up four pizzas for dinner with me.?”

“Yes, mam let me get my coat.”
