Pumpkin Princess

Pumpkin Princess - Jinyoung
A soft beat pounded through the speakers as B1A4’s latest song filled the small space of the car while it stopped at a red light. The soft tapping of Jinyoung’s fingers started to fade when his eyes lifted to his rear view mirror, his three and a half year old daughter swayed her head from side to side. With a smile curling on his lips, her lips gently moved as she tried to sing along to her Daddy’s song.

Her little arms were loosely around her favorite stuffed bunny while she wore adorable little brown and pink cowgirl boots that zipped up on the inside, a mini jean skirt, white stockings covered her two cute legs while contrasting against the black long sleeved sparkling jack-o-latern shirt that glittered in the sunlight.

"Daddy what are you looking at?" His daughter, Lilly, asked with a cute giggle lining her words.

"My princess~" Jinyoung smiled as returned his eyes to the street light as it turned green and he moved his foot and pressed on the gas peddle.

Shaking her cute head with her half ponytail on her head, she went back to singing his songs before she became confused looking out the window.

"Daddy?" She cooed quietly, Jinyoung turned down the radio so he could hear his daughter better.

"Yes Lilly?" Jinyoung glanced back up into the rear view mirror.

"Where we going?" She looked up at him watching him chuckle at her cute sentence.

"To get some pumpkins for Halloween" He reasoned with her as he the blinker to his black car and turned off of the pavement and onto the dirt road that winded through beautiful mature orchards trees.

Following the road as it rose and fell with the land, he watched as his daughter sat upright in her car seat to get a better view outside. Her eyes watched as the trees with gold, red and brown leaves passed by her window.

"Daddy, we here?" She asks excited while pressing her small hand against the cool window.

"We are, but I have to park the car before we can get out Lilly" He chuckled as his eyes found an empty spot and pulled the sleek black car into the empty spot.

Feeling the car stop, Lilly started to kick her feet happily. Gathering his wallet, and phone, he pulled out the keys from the ignition after he put it in park. Slipping his phone into one pocket, his wallet and keys into another, he opened the door and climbed out of his door before opening hers.

"Out please" Lilly held out her arms for him as her hands turned grabby.

"Okay Princess" Jinyoung giggled as she sat back for him to unbuckle her. "Bunny has to stay here in the car."

"But won’t Bunny be lonely?" Lilly looked up at him with her big brown eyes.

"I am sure he would love to hear about all of your stories when we come back, he looks like he needs a nap" Jinyoung smiled as he moved the straps around her arms and set her free.

"He was awake all night" Lilly nodded her head before she sat Bunny next to her car seat, "Sleep Bunny, Sweet dreams"

With a loud kiss on her Bunny’s head she laid him down before she reached her arms up for her dad to take her out of her seat. Sliding his hands around her torso, he lifted her out of the car and placed her on his hip.

"Pumpkin time!" She wrapped her one arm around his shoulder while her other hand wrapped around his thumb as her legs dangled down against him.

"Pumpkin time!" Jinyoung smiled and nodded, closing the door he locked the car and headed towards the gates.

Entering through the iron gates the beautiful farm opened up to their eyes, with hay mazes, open fields, perfectly crisp leaves and pumpkins galore filled their view as Lilly started bouncing in his arms.

"Daddy let me down!" She tried to wiggle from his arms, setting her down on the dirt, her little legs pounded against the dirt, her white stockings clutching her legs tightly as they looked so cute while she ran towards the hay with a smile.

"Lilly come back here!" Jinyoung ran after her and picked her up in his arms, holding her tightly against him he tickled her as her angelic sweet laughter filled the nippy air around them.

"D-D-Daddy!" She called through her giggles, "Let go"

Tickling her a little more, he placed a loud kiss on her cheek before setting her back on the ground, he knelt down and held her tiny hand in his. His chocolate eyes looked into her large ones that perfectly fit her angelic face.

"You have to stay where Daddy can see you and come when he calls your name, okay?" Jinyoung nodded his head gently before Lilly nodded back to him.

"Okay Daddy!" She gave him a loud kiss on the lips before she started to pull on his arm with all of her strength. "Let’s play!"

The two of them headed over to the hay maze, letting go of her hand she started to run through the little maze as Jinyoung watched her from the sidelines before she started to get confused. Finding herself in a dead end and not being tall enough to climb out, Jinyoung climbed over the bales and got to his little girl, tickling her sides, she laughed and giggled holding her little hands on his.

"Daddy!" She smiles as Jinyoung tickled her from behind, with her running feet bouncing off of the dirt below. Jinyoung carefully tickled her to guide her out of the maze.

Lilly’s eyes lit up happily when she noticed that she was at the end. Turning around she ran up to Jinyoung as he opened his hands to her and lifted her up.

"We did it Daddy!" She smiled and hugged him tightly as a proud smile came onto his face.

"You did it, Princess" He whispered and hugged her tightly before she pulled away and  pointed her little chubby finger towards the next thing she wanted to do.

Letting her down from his arms, he watched her carefully as she ran towards the large field in front of her, with the wild grass almost as tall as she was. Jinyoung crouched down and pulled out his phone taking some beautiful pictures of her running away and coming to him with a bright smile. Holding up a sunflower in her hand, she smiled and posed for Jinyoung as he giggled and snapped the picture.

"Who is that for Lilly?" He questioned placing an arm on his leg.

"Mommy~" Lilly sung looking down at the pretty flower before kissing it gently then putting it in a safe spot before taking Jinyoung’s hand in hers. "Come on Daddy"

Pulling with all of her might, she trotted with him over to a big oak tree, a gentle breeze blew its golden leaves off of the brown branches as the large pile of leaves caught her attention.

"Leaves!" She pointed and let go of his hand before she ran and jumped into the large pile.

Grabbing some leaves into her hands, she threw them up as Jinyoung smiled as wide as he could. Seeing his little girl, his little princess play so freely and being as beautiful as ever, he felt his heart swell before he couldn’t help himself but go and join her. Jumping into the pile next to her, he grabbed some leaves and made them fall over her. Watching her eyes light up, he happily fell back into the pile as she quickly covered him up.

Once he was all covered, he started to move slowly, letting the leaves fall off of him as he came to life. Lilly’s scream kick started her legs as she started to run away. Running after her, he couldn’t help but lift her over his shoulder and start kissing her face. With more giggles and laughs spilling from her lips, he held her upside down as her shirt fell down exposing her stomach as he happily blew on it causing her to laugh louder.

After many more leave monsters and leaf angels were made, she came over and sat on his chest while he laid in the pile of leaves.

"Daddy, pumpkin time!" She smiled down at him with little bits of leaves in her perfectly black hair.

"Pumpkin time it is" He smiled and sat up as she started to hop off to where the orange blobs were scattered throughout the dirt filled field.

"What kind of pumpkin do you want Lilly?" Jinyoung asked as she tapped her lip with her little fingers.

"An orange one" She looks up at him as he just starts to giggle

"Of course~ Let Daddy know when you found one you like~" Jinyoung smiled as he watched his little girl venture off on her own and inspect each pumpkin before she found one that she really liked.

"Daddy! I found it!" She called loudly. Trotting over to her, he smiled as he knelt down beside her.

"You did? Where is it?" He asked with bright eyes before she pointed down between her cowgirl boots.

"It baby pumpkin!" She smiled and lifted it up in her hands, with the orange pumpkin the perfect size for her to carry and the perfect shade or orange, he smiled and nodded. Lifting her up into his arms, he carried both her and the pumpkin to the table to pay for it.

Waiting in line to pay for the pumpkin, he watched the pretty sunset behind the brick silo right above the old barn that was in mint condition. Feeling a head gently rest on his black sweatshirt, he felt his little girls’ hands relax on either side of her body as her breathing slowed.

Turning his head slowly, he glanced at his sleeping angel in his arms. Paying for the pumpkin, he carefully wrapped his arms around her and cradled her in his arms while he walked to the car. Pushing the buttons on his key pod, he headed towards his car that had its lights all lit up.

Opening Lilly’s door, he shifted her slowly in his arms and set her in her car seat. Moving her little arms into the straps, he buckled her in and placed Bunny on her lap. Lifting up an extra jacket from the passenger seat, he laid it over her and closed the door quietly before he opened up his door and slid behind the wheel.

Twisting the key, the engine started as he turned the volume down of the radio and peered in his rear view mirror again at his sleeping beauty. Clicking another picture with his phone, he shifted the car into drive before he made his way out of the park.

Slowing the car at a red light, he looked back and watched her arm wrap around Bunny with her little perfect pumpkin beside her. The light turned green and he started to move the car once more. The street lights moved through the car as the dark ebony sky hung over them with billions of sparkling stars watching over them, along with the white crescent moon.

With the light fading fast, he couldn’t help but smile at all of the precious memories that were made that day between his daughter and himself. Knowing that they would last for a lifetime, just him and his little Pumpkin Princess.

Chapter 1: Awww that was sooo cute to read before sleeping!!
I was really in the mood to read some cute story for little girls so I've read 'daddy daughter work day' again and my luck decided to work well tonight so I found this one hehehe xD

As a father, he really did awesome to strengthen the bond with his daughter, love it!
Some say that a little daughter is more likely to love (not sure if to say love or favour though xD) her father more than the mother and the opposite for the boys, and I really think you write daddy stories more nicely than the whole family ones.. maybe
But still they are all so sweet and well written <3
