Chapter Text
Phil's four and he really shouldn't be up because it's past 12 but's he's thirsty and Mrs. Dorothy said everything that is their are his too. So he's going to get some water and dragging a chair to the cabinets and reaching for a glass, just as the lights turn on and Phil gives a small shriek falling of the chair.
"Oh honey are you okay?" Mrs.Rose says rushing over helping Phil to his feet as he replies,
"I'm fine." Even though his butt hurt but he's fallen of chairs before so he knows his butt will hurt.
"What were you doing?" She asks leading Phil over to a stool and helping him up.
"I was getting a class of water." He answers.
"I'll get you some and how about some cheesecake too." Mrs.Rose says grabbing the glass and filling in half-way with water before she goes over to the refrigtor and pulls out the cheesecake and two forks. At Phil's questioning look she winks and says.
"I don't think anyone will mind." After a few seconds of eating in silence Mrs. Rose begins, "You know this reminds me of a time with my pet cow Thor..."
"Thor as in the god." Phil blurts before going crimson.
"No as in Thor Goldburg done the road." Mrs. Rose says smiling "So anyway Thor and my husband Charlie were going down to old Hickmans farm"
Phil tries to stay awake he really does but the story is strange and...well,boring and Phil falls asleep waking up in a better mood than he had for months.
At the breakfast table the next day.
"Who on gods green earth ate the cheesecake?" Mrs. Blance asks as Phil and Mrs.Rose glanced guiltily at each other.
"How about me and you go for a walk in the park?" Mrs.Rose asks Phil. Phil nods excitedly and within seconds they are gone leaving a confused Blance and a amused Dorothy to look at each other bemused.
