Chapter 40 Protege

                                    

                                          
"Ahh, mmmm," Regina softly and happily groaned underneath Killian. "Ah, Killian," she moaned in his ear. He grinded against his wife's hips, delving deeper into her. "Mm," she gnawed her mouth against his shoulder to muffle her orgasmic grunts. 
                          
Killian slowed, and breathed over her, smiling away. "Mmmm, that was so good," Regina mumbled against his lips. "Mmm." he sighed, brushing his mouth against hers. The pair toss on clothing, and robes, and head out of their room. 
                          
Molly, now 9 years old, sits at the breakfast bar with juice. "Well Hi," Killian smiled. "Hi, were you having sex?" Molly blurted out. Regina's eyes widened and she gaped at her daughter. "Uhh," Killian looked at Regina. 
                          
"How on earth do you know what that is?" Regina asked. "Because you explained that grown ups have sex to have a baby, are you going to have one?" Molly asked. "No, you're enough," Killian kissed her head. "Grown ups can have sex and not have a baby," Regina smiled. 
                          
"How?" Molly asked. "They... protect against it," Killian said. "How?" Molly followed. Killian sighed, and looked at Regina. "A pill," Regina answered with a smile. Killian sighed relieved. "How about Daddy makes french toast?" Killian distracted. 
                          
Molly smiled cheekily at him, "You just don't like my questions," Molly said. "On the contrary, I like your questions, just Daddy isn't awake," Killian said cutely, as Regina handed him eggs. "I wrote an article," Molly smiled. 
                          
"Did you?" Killian asks, beaming with pride already. "Yup, it's about how we need different things on our playground at school," Molly said. "Oh, I see, what's wrong with the playground?" He asked. "Well it's the same one we've had since Kindergarten, and we need more big kid things," Molly explained.
                          
"She's right, that's a good point, the park has more things for different age groups," Regina said. "Yup, so we think school needs one," Molly said. "Mmm," Killian nodded, agreeably. 
                          
Molly was a bright and clever child, a pretty good student, and still just her Dad's little girl. She was a mini version of Regina though, looking more like her as she grew. She had her Dad's eyes, and his accent, and little cheeks however. 
                          
Regina walked Molly to school that Monday, as she read her article to her out loud. "Do you like it?" Molly asked. "I think it's great," she smiled down at her daughter. "Can Daddy put it in the magazine?" Molly asked her with a hopeful expression.
                          
Regina thought a moment, and bent down, "Hmm, that's a good question, maybe Daddy should," Regina shrugged. "Can you give it to him today in the meeting?" Molly asked. She pretty much knew her parents entire work schedule at this point. 
                          
"Sure," Regina took the paper from her, and kissed her goodbye. "You have a good day," Regina waved after Molly kissed her goodbye. She scampered off to be with her friends before morning bell.
                          
Regina's POV- She's so sweet, she just wants to be just like us. I'm not sure at all what Killian would say, but it was an interesting little idea. 
                          
"Molly wrote an article, look," Regina handed it to Tiana and Ruby. "She's so cute," Tiana mused about the little girl's writing. "You know we could use Kid POV for the family and kids section," Tiana said. "Hmmm, you're right," Regina tilted her head. 
                          
As the Monday meeting wrapped up, Regina went to Killian. "Hey," he winked, per usual. "Your daughter, wants you to put this in the magazine," she handed him Molly's short little writing piece. She had of course just basic nine year old writing skills, but she was clever and had cute ideas. She was also fairly clear. 
                          
"Hmm, that's an idea," Killian said. "What?" Regina asked. "A kids POV," he shrugged. She could see his mind working. He was pretty clever at what would be a good idea or not for the magazine audience. 
                          
"What are you thinking? I see your wheels turning, almost like when we did it on the desk," Regina smiled. "Yeah, well that was a great idea, since it got us this little protege," he winked. 
                          
Regina waved at Molly in the school yard at 3 pm. Molly smiled brightly and ran over to her with her backpack bouncing on her back. "Mummy!" She hugged her, always happy to see her. "We're going to work," Regina smiled. 
                          
Molly didn't really think anything of it, since it was fairly usual for Regina to take Molly to the office after school at least three days a week. "Hey cutie," Tiana smiled brightly at her as she came in. 
                          
Killian waved Regina and Molly into his office. Molly skipped quickly, but was scooped up, "Ahh!" She giggled and Graham turned her in his arms, "I didn't get a hug," He said playfully and Molly wrapped her arms around her Uncle's neck. "Sorry, Daddy is calling," Molly said cutely. 
                          
Graham put her down and she ran into Killian's office with Regina. "Hi Daddy!" She went to hug him, and he kisses her head cutely. Regina stands next to him, "Sit down," Killian pointed to the chair in front of his desk. 
                          
He sat behind it, leaning backward in his chair. Regina laughed, that he was acting like a boss to his own daughter. "What did I do?" Molly worried. "Mmm, you think you did something?" He asked. "I don't know," the child shrugged. 
                          
Regina's POV -- Of Course he's making a big production about this, that was the way he was, and he also liked making Molly feel special. 
                          
"Well, Mummy showed me your article and she said you asked if I could put it in the magazine," Killian said. Molly looked at him bright eyed and curious. "I think that we can do more than that." he smiled.
                          
"What?" Molly inquired. "Well, I think that you need a little section in the magazine, just two paragraphs, and we will call it 'Molly's Musings', and it can be about a different little thing every week that affects kids, like you," he smiled.
                          
"Really? Me?" Molly asked. "Mmhmm, Mommy and Daddy will help you of course every week, but you'll get to pick what it's about, like vegetables or TV or movies or something like that about kids," Regina smiled.
                          
"Wow! Do I get paid?" Molly asked. "She's just like you," Regina rolled her eyes. Killian laughed, "Uhh, no you don't really get paid, I can think of something though as a treat maybe with each magazine," Killian agreed. 
                          
Molly smiled, "Wait, will I get in trouble?" she worried. "In trouble?" Killian asked. "Like what if I say I don't like bedtime, or something?" Molly asked. Regina smiled at Killian, "Uh, no you don't get in trouble for your opinion, that's the point of writing sometimes, your opinion," He smiled. "Ok," Molly smiled. 
                          
"Can I go tell them?" Molly asked about the office. "Sure, go on," Killian chuckled, and their little one was off to tell Graham and the others. 
                          
"Well you made her life right there," Regina smiled. Killian stood and wrapped his arms around her, "Yeah, and she is just like us, you know this will sell magazines to her friends and their parents," He winked. "Always about the dollar huh?" Regina asked. 
                          
"Oh please, after this many years, you know that's not how I am," He smirked. "No, I know what really matters to you," Regina smiled and kissed him softly. "Mmhmm, two pretty girls," He winked. 
                          
"Come on new little writer, let's go home," Killian said, and Molly came to take his and Regina's hands. "Leaving early? You?" Graham asked. "Yeah, well, family man, with my new protege," Killian smiled. "You handle it Graham," Killian smiled. 
                          
"Will do boss," Graham waved as the elevator closed. "Now what?" Molly asked. "Home, early, Daddy will cook dinner," He smiled. "Maybe my first article should be about you and Mummy," Molly thought out loud.
                          
"Oh yeah? What about us?" Regina smiled. "Mmmm, that Daddy hired you, and you had sex on your desk to have me," Molly blurted out. Regina and Killian stared at each other, "How did she?" Regina gaped, "Graham," Killian rolled his eyes. 
                          
Regina laughed, followed by Killian, who scooped up Molly. She giggled as her Dad tickled her, "Cheeky miss, let's start with something a little more simple?" Killian mused. "Ok, Ice cream, that's a good topic," Molly smiled. "There you go," Regina grinned.
