Murphy & Octavia (Day 4)
Murphy hadn't been a hundred percent sure about asking Octavia if she wanted to go with him and the kids, hadn't been sure if that was still within the "cool aunt" limits they'd both agreed on. She'd agreed, though, and that was how the two of them wound up wrangling two kids through a crowded theme park.
They had Alex on one of those backpack leashes, because like hell Murphy was going to lose his squirmy, hyperactive son. And sure enough, Octavia had wound up wrangling Aurie. He'd given her an apologetic smile but the little girl seemed to like her, and always had ever since Octavia showed back up.
"So, where are we dragging these little beasts off to now?" Murphy asked, laughing as he looked to Octavia.
