Xylina was used to being the youngest so when Alex had a kid she really didn't think anything of it. She was actually glad that a lot of the attention that was on her was shifted to the little one. It helped her grow a lot and work on becoming less paranoid, or well dealing with the paranoia a bit more. Still she had actually been busy with cheerleading and worrying over Vega's Valentines day present so she didn't get a chance to hang out with Celesta. Which is why she had scooped the baby in her arms "Hey Cely, are you ready to have the best day ever with your Aunty?" She had already rummaged through Alex's room finding the necessary things like a change of clothes, wipes, and a hat. As well as lotion, and a first aid kit just in case. She also packed juice boxes and snacks for Cely so she could have something to eat between meals. Growing dragons need food after all, and Xylina didn't exactly know if three year olds could eat hotpockets.

"We are gonna have so much fun, I even got you a shiny thing!" She said handing Cely the shiny but squishy teddy bear she picked up from the mall other day. She helped Cely get dressed picked her up and quickly sped out the house after leaving a note. When she was a safe distance from the house she put down Cely and smiled brightly. "Okay now we're free and can have fun without your daddy breathing down my neck."

Even though she had left a note, she had promised not to keep Cely out for too long. She didn't want to make Celeste worried about the little toddler. "What would you like to do first? We have Frozen Yogurt, Game stop video games, And intro to hot pockets 101. Or we can go play ding dong ditch at Vega's house"

When her aunt scooped her up, Celesta had been enjoying her 'morning nap'. Normally after attending breakfast with her mommy and daddy, Celesta fell back asleep until about midday — and then, if luck would have it, she would wake. Her schedule consisted of a lot of sleep — from breakfast to midday, and then later in the evening she napped on her father's chest while he took his nap for the day. It was certainly something they had in common — sleep.

Celesta had simply gone back to sleep — at least until the cool morning air hit her little mess of red curls. She had slept through being dressed — though when the shiny bear was offered to her she clapped her hands quite excitedly, hugging the plush object against her chest.

Then; all of a sudden, she was on the ground — little toes curling inside of her sandals. "Swing." Asking this particular child what she wanted to do was... like talking to a wall. She liked to swing. And sleep. And eat. And sometimes terrorize her mommy.

"Swingswingswing!" She demanded, almost breathlessly as she began to bounce in place; hugging her teddy bear. She had no idea what anything else her aunt had listed off was.

Xylina nodded and scooped the three year old onto her back and took off at a meduim slow fast run to the park. She stopped at the swing and set Cely down in it and pushed her gently. She was going to be the bestest Aunt ever. As soon as she got Cely to do other things than swing. "Dont you wanna go eat frozen yogurt?? It has candy in it?" She asked having gotten bored with regular swinging and was now sitting upside down in her swing.


She used her arm to push cely periodically. There had to be a way to convince Cely that her planned day was wayyyy better than swinging all day. Then again she liked swinging and hiding in piles of clean socks when she was younger. Yes she still stole the socks and shoes from the. Family.

Celesta shook her head. "What's a yogurr?" She asked, blinking. When her mommy or daddy fed her they didn't always explain what the food was... Or what it was called. She wasn't too much of a picky eater and usually ate whatever was in front of her.

She shook the swing. "Faster!" She wailed, kicking her legs angrily. Her aunty didn't like swinging and that was almost enough to make Celesta not like her aunt. Almost.

Xylina nodded and pushed Cely a bit faster, still worried about make her fall or something. She was only half dragon and probably not as durable as she was when she was younger. After awhile of pushing Cely on the swing she decided to try a different tactic "Hey Celesta, it's getting pretty close to lunch time, how about we get that yogurt you wanted"

She stood in front of the swing and waited for Cely to make her mind up. She new that her niece was a bit spoiled and she didn't want to be the mean one that made her cry. After all, she wasn't her parents. She didn't have the heart nor the want to tell a kid they couldn't have fun. Not to mention she was pretty much allowed to do anything she wanted now that she lived with Alec.

"Plus, you can put any kind of candy you want on it, and the people have to let you" She offered up, trying to make the deal sweeter. She just had to find a way to get Cely to the mall to play games after. She highly doubted that the same trick would work twice.

Celesta stared upward at her aunt — quickly agreeing to go 'get the yogurt she wanted'. The child shoved herself off the slow-swinging swing to hold her arms above her head. "'gurt! 'gurt! Canny!" She shrieked, quite pleased with her 'idea'.

She would latch onto her aunt's leg, unless the woman picked her up, and bounce eagerly up and down — her teddy bear hanging from one of her hands. "'gurt!"

Xylina was quite please with the fact that it had worked, even if she felt a little bit bad for lying to her little niece. Then again as long as they were both happy, and having then there as no harm done right? She careful swung her lead and walked so that Cely could stay latched to her leg. She liked b her being taller than someone, it was kind of fun not being the shortest person in the family anymore. All the cousins and brothers towering over her had given height complex.

She had managed to make it all the way to the yogurt places door with Cely attached to her leg. She looked down, and smiled at her niece "Hey, you wana go in or are you gonna stay on my leg? You can't carry yogurt that way" She said holding open the door so the toddler could walk through.

The little girl detached from her aunt, and rushed into the store with a shriek of, "'gurt!" She bounced up and down, hands clapping loudly as she pressed her face against the counter. "'gurt!" She demanded, small hands thumping against the side of the counter rather roughly.

The child was rather excited for yogurt — all because her aunt had told her it was her idea! She danced in place, turning to stare up at her aunty with wide, emerald hues. "Gimme, gimme, gimme!" She chanted.

Xylina snickered as she followed after her niece. She scooped up the little shorty and picked up two giant cups and walked over to the yogurt bar maker thing. She piled cookies and cream frozedn yogurt in the cups for both of them and then sat Cely down near the toppings and pushed the cup towards her. "Okay Cely, just pick what toppings you want and put it on the yogurt and then we'll go eat it"

She started to piled M&Ms, skittles, gummy bears, and other things into her frozen treat while keeping an eye on the little one. Xylina was kind of excited to see that she was willing to eat frozen yogurt. Perhaps having a little niece was a good thing, even if she wasn't sure what to think of her sister in law. Xylina was just having a hard time adjusting to the new additions to the family.

Celesta stared at all the toppings, reaching out with both hands into some M&Ms, scattering more of the candy across the counter than into her yogurt. She then reached for two large handfuls of gummies, and soon she was stretching out her small hands for random candies — she seemed to stay near the colorful candies, but at some point she had grabbed a rather big handful of hard candy — butterscotches were pretty; and she'd shoved those into the cup too.

She peered into her cup and shook it eagerly, kicking her legs. "Downdowndown!" She chirped, as she shoved one of the stray butterscotches into her mouth — and should her aunt not stop her, she'd proceed to try and chew the hard candy, fingers resting in her mouth as she tried to eat it.
