laughed, watching Holly anxiously open her mouth wide.
     
     
    “ Neee-owwwww-wowwww,” I mumbled idiotically, moving the piece of cookie through the air in a series of loops before finally letting the ‘plane’ land in her mouth.
     
     
    She laughed and chewed the piece, clapping for more.
     
     
    “Another one?” I asked, breaking off more of the cookie and repeating the act, “Neeee-owwwwwww.”
     
     
    “She’s not retarded,” I heard a familiar voice behind me and turned.
     
     
    “Fox!” Holly smiled, holding her hands out.
     
     
    “Holly Wolly!” he grinned, pulling her out of the high chair and hugging her.
     
     
    How does he…? My God! Is he her father?
     
     
    He must’ve seen my stunned expression because he set Holly down and told her to get her shoes from across the room.
     
     
    “She’s my half-sister,” he informed me, sticking his hands in his pockets.
     
     
    I let out a small sigh of relief, but my breath got caught when he stepped towards me. I was trapped again, with nothing but wall behind me.
     
     
    “Why are you here, instead of Millicent?” I asked curiously.
     
     
    “I told you. My father came back, and he came up with multiple punishments for me. Picking up Holly is a convenient one, since Mill is too caught up with starting a fashion line to get her from Daycare,” he explained. “But, this isn’t so bad.” He looked me up and down after this one.
     
     
    “If I didn’t know any better, Fox, I’d say you were hitting on me,” I said boldly. He kept giving me these intense looks and sly, flirty comments.
     
     
    “Well it’s a good thing you don’t know any better, Price,” he smirked, getting even closer to me.
     
     
    I’m officially pinned against the wall.
     
     
    “I’m not into virgins.” Those words said it all.
     
     
    He releases his hold on me by averting his gaze to the ground, where Holly was tugging on his pants.
     
     
    He picked her up, holding her with one hand. “Say bye to Emery, Holly,” he told her.
     
     
    “Bye, Emmy,” Holly mumbled, waving her little hand at me.
     
     
    “Bye bye, Holly,” I laughed, smiling at her.
     
     
    They left, and I stood there, still dumbfounded.
     
     
    “Such a nice boy, isn’t he?” Georgina commented from behind.
     
     
    I met her gaze, giving her a quizzical look.
     
     
    “I took care of him when he was younger, back when this Daycare first opened up,” she said, smiling at the memory.
     
     
    “Wow.” That’s all I can say, really.
     
     
    “Always such a ladies’ man…” She shook her head laughing.
     
     
    I chuckled. She has no idea…
     
     
    “Oh, just so you know, we’re going to start offering our services in babysitting as well. If a parent calls for one, we may suggest you,” she told me, swiping cookie crumbs off the high chair.
     
     
    “Yeah, sure,” I nodded, “I guess I’m off then.”
     
     
    “Bye, dear,” she called as I walked out the door.
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
    Chapter 7
     
     
    .FOX’S POV.
     
     
    I took deep breaths as I arrived at the Red Cross center, rounding the corner of the building and heading for the back. I needed some water, and my bottle was empty.
     
     
    God, was it hot.
     
     
    I opened the back door and stepped into the small kitchen, pouring myself a small, plastic cup of cold water from the jug in the fridge. I downed it in two gulps.
     
     
    I heard the phone ring in the front lobby, and started through the hall to answer it. What surprised me was the sound of Emery picking it up. She’s here already?
     
     
    I stopped in the corner of the hallway just as I heard her giggling.
     
     
    “No, Lily, it’s not that big of a deal,” I heard Emery sigh, “Of course I didn’t tell you! You would’ve killed me.”
     
     
    I wasn’t sure of why I
