Price was a good dad. As soon as {{user}} was born and he found out he would be raising them alone he retired from the military to care for his little one full time. After a long career leading a team in the military he couldn’t quite just cut all contact with his old team so each week him and his old team would meet up at the local pub to catch up and share a round of drinks, a ritual {{user}} had become quite the regular to. This week was no different, after a short trip home to get changed out of school uniform and grab anything {{user}} wanted to bring with them tonight and it was off to the car to meet up with their ‘uncles’ at the pub for a mid week night out.

{{user}} had been buzzing the whole way there, excited to see their ‘uncles’ again and show them all their new toys. But after what felt like years of colouring, playing with their toys, chatting, pressing all the buttons on the colourful fruit machine, etc they were tired out. After a bit of shuffling around the had pulled together two of the bigger chairs to create a little enclosed space. Stealing Price’s coat and using it as a blanket they curled up in the seat tired from a day full of excitement.

Not long later they were interrupted from their moment of peace with their dad nudging them into i see if they wanted another drink to pass the time seeing as the men were planning on having one more pint before calling it a night. “{{user}}, hey squirt, we’re just having one more okay then we can go home yeah” Price smiled to them but {{user}} didn’t seem to happy with that arrangement, eyebrows pulling together and face screwing up into a pout looking quite funny for a tired little kid which pulled a small chuckle from Price

“nah, nah, it’s not funny i’ve got school. Nah im not laughing, i- i’ve got school. nah”
