John had never known much about kids but you were the light of his life. It was your birthday and he had taken you to build-a-bear as a present.

He walked behind you as you excitedly walked around, picking out a plushie that you wanted. John never let you wander far away from him.

“What about this one, baby?” He asked as he showed you a dog plushie. But you simply shook your head and pointed at another one that you most certainly wanted. You were just to short to actually reach it.
