Changing Connor ~A sequel to changing Cameron~

Chapter 5- A fathers Love

When Connor comes home, I'm sitting on the couch with Aria's head on my lap. She's been sleeping for a while and I have a blanket over her and I'm keeping an eye on her. Connor comes in the room quietly and smiles at me. "What's wrong with our baby?", he asks. He sits on the love seat and lays his bag on the floor.

"She woke up sick and puking and she had a fever. I think her fever has went down and she hasn't puked any since I gave her medicine", I say. Connor nods. "I needed you here today". He looks down at the floor.

"I know", is all he says.

"I can't do this on my own. The first time one of our children get really sick, I'm on my own. I had Joseph to talk to, Connor. And do you think he talks me through it? No. He's a baby and he doesn't know what I'm saying. I freaking needed you here and you weren't here", I reply.

"Cameron, I said I'm sorry. But I've explained to you a million times that there are people who need me. It's my job to make videos and meet the people who's lives I've changed", he replies. I scoff.

"Connor, You are not freaking Super Man! This is what it is. You say something to the camera and the children have hope. You give them hope. So do a million other people. But do you know the difference Connor? Most of those do not have a family. You do", I say. I ease Aria's head off my lap then pick her up. "You can sleep on the couch tonight too". I go upstairs and put Aria to bed, then get in my own bed.

Honestly, I don't expect Connor to come into the room, but he does. I turn on my side and close my eyes, pretending to be asleep. "Cam, I can tell when you're faking it. Please listen to me", he says. I don't move. He sighs and sits on the edge of the bed. "I should have been here, but..", I turn to face him.

"But what Connor? You were too busy stuck up some bratty childs ass to actually take care of your children? I had to call your mom and ask her for advice. Connor I am a young father and I need my husband to help me look after our kids", I say, my voice raising. Joseph starts crying and Connor gets up to tend to him.

He takes Joseph out of his crib and takes his diaper bag and leaves the room. He comes back a few minutes later with a sleeping Joseph and lays him down in his crib once again, then goes into the bathroom to change.

He comes out wearing no shirt and pajama pants. He grabs his pillow and cover from the bed and goes downstairs. I sigh and lay my head on my pillow and try to go to sleep.

The next morning, I wake up to the sound of gigglng and music from the Disney movie "Tangled". I rub my eyes then go downstairs to find Connor and Aria watching the movie. Aria sees me and pats the seat next to her. "Come watch daddy, this is my favorite part!'", she says.

I sit down beside her and she busts out laughing when the lizard thing sticks his tongue in the guys ear. I see Connor smile and he stands up. "I'm going to make breakfast, Cam, you're welcome to join me", he says. I don't even say anything to him and he walks into the kitchen.

After a few minutes of Aria glued to the tv, I walk into the kitchen myself. "Do you think wathing a movie with Aria is going to just erase the fact that you left me alone to take care of her?", I ask, leaning against the counter and crossing my arms. He stands at the stove making eggs.

"No, I didn't think that. Maybe I just wanted to do something fun with her", he says. I laugh out loud.

"And watching a movie with her that I have seen a million times will do that? You're gonna need to try a bit harder, Youtube boy", I say before walking out of the room. I go upstairs and take a shower, then put a t-shirt on and some jeans, then go back downstairs.

I see Connor coming out of the kitchen and he notices me. "Sit", he says. I do what he says and sit beside Aria. He click off the tv and she looks at me. "Today is Saturday, and we're going to do something fun, as a family. So, we're going to a festival". Aria shrieks and crying can be heard from downstairs. She giggles and covers her mouth.

Connor laughs, then takes Aria upstairs to get ready. I follow them up and walk into Con and I's room and pick up Joseph. I change him and then put him in a onesie that says "I'm a Tumblr kid". I picked it out, hehe.

I pick him up and take him downstairs. I find Connor wearing a tank top and skinny jeans and Aria is in a pink short sleeve shirt with matching green leggings. The shirt says "Princess". And her hair is in a pink and green ribbon. Yes, Connor is gay.

I hand Joseph over and go and get a stroller. I come back and we all get into the car. "TO THE FESTIVAL THING!", Connor shouts, earning a yay from Aria and a giggle from Joseph.
