Ellie bounced down the stairs, her energy as effortless as ever. Yet, like Sara, she kept her hand steady, making sure Jordan wasn’t jostled much at all. He didn’t understand how they did it, moving like normal but keeping him stable. Maybe it was just a Guardian thing, or maybe it was a skill they picked up with time. Either way, he wasn’t about to question it too much. If it kept him from getting motion sick, he wasn’t complaining.
As Ellie stepped into the kitchen, Jordan noticed something else, how quietly she moved. She was all energy, but unlike most people her age, she didn’t stomp or shuffle. She glided.
The sizzle of bacon filled the air, and the smell followed soon after, wrapping around Jordan like a warm blanket. Fried pig had always been one of his favorites, and for a moment, just a moment, the aroma tugged at something familiar, something normal.
“Ellie, it’s been too long.”
Jordan turned as Tiffany’s face lit up, her whole expression softening as she walked toward Ellie.
“It’s great having both my girls in the house again,” she said, pressing a quick kiss to the top of Ellie’s head.
“Thanks, Ms. Reeves. I guess it has been a bit, what, a week and a half since I stayed over?” Ellie leaned slightly against the kitchen counter, her usual casual ease settling in.
“A week and a half too long,” Tiffany said with a playful shake of her head before shifting her gaze downward. “How about you, Jordan? Are you getting along okay?”
Jordan sat up a little straighter in Ellie’s palm. It was still weird being talked to from above, but at least Tiffany’s voice was warm, not patronizing.
“Y-yes, ma’am,” he said, hating how nervous his voice sounded. “Sara and Ellie have been helping me adjust to… all this.”
Tiffany smiled warmly before turning back to the stove, flipping the bacon with practiced ease. “That’s good. It seems like Sara’s grown quite attached to you already.”
Jordan hesitated. Yeah, that was an understatement.
“I mean, I guess we help each other,” he said finally.
Tiffany hummed in response, but before she could say anything else, her attention shifted.
“Oh, Ellie, isn’t that party tonight?”
Jordan caught a moment of hesitation on Ellie’s face, just for a split second as she thought about what to say before she smoothed it over.
“Oh, don’t worry,” Tiffany added quickly, giving her a knowing look. “I’m not so old I don’t remember what it’s like to have a little fun. Just make sure you two stay over at Chloe’s. I don’t want either of you out driving. If you do need to leave, just call us. No judgment. We just want you safe.”
Ellie relaxed and grinned. “You got it. Our plan was to crash at Chloe’s and head out in the morning.”
Then, as if remembering something, she perked up. “Oh! Jordy even has a little date tonight.”
Jordan blinked. What?
Ellie smirked, clearly enjoying this way too much. “One of our friends at school’s sister caught Smallara. Kelli Wallace. She’s back from college now.”
Jordan didn’t know what was worse, that Ellie was helping to orchestrate this thing, or that she made it sound like they were setting up a playdate for puppies.
Before he could protest, Tiffany let out a lighthearted chuckle. “Look at you, Jordan. Just a few days in, and you’re already going on dates.”
Jordan ran a hand down his face. “Okay, first of all, it’s not a date.”
Ellie made an exaggerated hmm sound. “Sounds like a date.”
“It’s not a date,” Jordan repeated, glaring up at her. “It’s just, wait, who even set this up as a date?”
Ellie gave an innocent shrug that was anything but innocent. “Sara, obviously. I mean, c’mon, you need to meet other Littles. It’s good for you.”
Jordan groaned. “Oh my God. You guys are treating me like a rescue dog being introduced to another rescue dog.”
Tiffany laughed softly as she turned off the stove and moved the bacon to a plate. “Well, in their defense, you have been cooped up with them a lot. It might be nice to talk to someone who actually understands what you’re going through.”
Jordan sighed. He knew she had a point, but that didn’t mean he liked it.
Ellie grinned down at him. “It won’t be so bad, Jordy. Who knows? Maybe you’ll really hit it off.”
Jordan slumped back against her palm.
At this point, what choice did he have?
Loved the interaction between Tiffany and Jordan; let’s see how this date between he and Kelli plays out.
I do also, I hope Jordan suggests to Sarah to let her mom have 1 or two hours a day to play with Jordan as her living doll being able to by outfits she likes and being able to put them on him down to the underwear and Jordan has to agree not to fight it and let her do everything like he was a doll because it would break the fun like fantasy as a young girl they are trying to recreate for her so she can look at littles not only as a burden because of her job but also as a subject of happiness.
Thanks, people are slowly warming up to each other.
He should be saying thank you to the girls for setting him up with a all time beauty like Kelli that in one of the chapters said he never was able to have enough game to get a date with someone like her. This is one of the things I feel bad for a adult like Jordan not understanding when to be thankful. Even though its only been a week its still plenty of time to understand how lucky he is. Because he is a little his age doesn’t matter anymore even though Sarah does when it suits her purpose and legally by government rules makes not sense for a little considered property being able to hold a legal drivers ID or being able to by alcohol.
He gets to be surrounded by beautiful woman all the time and relive his high school years through his beautiful guardians life going to fun party’s and doing fun stuff with her rich girlfriend.
Its kind of like blind date. Its not as bad as Jordan is making it out to be. In the end its just going to a party with Kelli. Its not like it has to be any more than that.
OH HELL YEAH JORDAN X KELLI IS A GO!!! …..now Jordan just a little advice for you and listen closely……STOP BEING A SCARED LITTLE BITCH !!! Like does bro not want to score and possibly get …..laid down if you know what I mean heheh 😏…either way great work and Tiffany is great here once again
I agree, Jordan has everything going his way to have a great time with a smart beautiful woman but he is acting like he is a virgin that hasn’t seen a naked woman it’s sad.
Well it does have a level of support that is for sure. Whether it happens that way only time will tell.
1) “Jordan noticed something else, how quietly she moved. She was all energy, but unlike most people her age, she didn’t stomp or shuffle. She glided.” that is weather a hard skill to master or something one is naturally or unintentionally good at.
2) “The sizzle of bacon filled the air, and the smell followed soon after, wrapping around Jordan like a warm blanket” I too love the smell of bacon in the morning.
3.1) “Ellie, it’s been too long.” it was literally last night.
3.2) “It’s great having both my girls in the house again,” she said, pressing a quick kiss to the top of Ellie’s head” that’s adorable and I love it.
4) “How about you, Jordan? Are you getting along okay?” Hey, she’s actually acknowledging him directly.
5) “Sara and Ellie have been helping me adjust to… all this.” When they aren’t making his life more difficult for him.
6) “It seems like Sara’s grown quite attached to you already.” it’s not everyday a bully gets a portable victim.
7) “I’m not so old I don’t remember what it’s like to have a little fun” How old is she?
8) “Oh! Jordy even has a little date tonight.” that’s news to him.]
9) “Jordan didn’t know what was worse, that Ellie was helping to orchestrate this thing, or that she made it sound like they were setting up a playdate for puppies.” both would piss me off, so Jordan’ll probably just take it after the slightest protest.
10) “Well, in their defense, you have been cooped up with them a lot. It might be nice to talk to someone who actually understands what you’re going through.” well that’s true, but calling it a “date” is too far, we don’t actually know if he’s over Emily enough for that yet.
11) “At this point, what choice did he have?” none, the same amount they always give him.
(7) I’m thinking that Tiffiany is in her forties, which would mean she would have been in her twenties when she had Sara.
she is still cute, so Jordans skyline is nice to look at lol.
Personally I estimate her to be mid-late thirties, meaning she’d have been in her early twenties when Sara was born.
She had Sara at 21. So she is 36 years old if my math maths right.
Thanks
I mostly agree with you but 9 makes no sense to me. When I broke up with a girl especially if she broke up with me I went into slut mode and just tried to enjoy woman because every woman is a different experience mostly good and who cares how you get to hook up and be on a date with a smart beautiful woman like Kelli. I have a friend who has this attitude and I’ve know him since I was in my early twenty’s and now he is still single in his 50s. I feel so sad for him but my wife and I just try to make suggestions. Too much pride can make you lonely.
Everyone one is different though. What worked for you may not work for another person. Not every person may want to go into “slut mode.”
I can see how the littles that didn’t breed with humans went instinct. They have a low T issue compared to other animals, even human monkeys lol.
1) Ellie does generally move around quietly. Its how she gets access information and things at school. Its partly skill, partly natural ability.
2) Its a jordan favorite food. You can’t go wrong with bacon. Its why I could never be a vegetarian. I like bacon and steak to much.
3.1 and 3.2) I was waiting for you to say that. She is specifically referring to Ellie sleeping over. Sara’s family and Ellie’s family are very close. So Sara’s parents look at Ellie as there own and vice versa. Ellie’s parents feel similar.
4) She is acknowledging him. She isn’t anti Jordy or anything. She knows how Sara feels about the situation and that Jodan isn’t going anywhere. Sara would never forgive her if she forced her to get rid of him or did something that was overall mean or cruel to jordan. Plus tiffany isn’t that kind of person. She does get tired of littles sometimes because of her job.
5) Thats fair
6) I wouldn’t call Sara a bully, but i understand your point.
7) answered this one in another part of this thread which you saw
8) Ellie needed to blab it out.
9) A date with Kelli woudln’t be that bad. Thats hardly a Sara is ruining his life moment. Especially when he wasgoing to have to be at the party anyway.
10) I agree with you. A full on date is a bit much and that is more Jordan’s feelings as well. It hasn’t been stated if he fully over Emily or not yet or if she is even fully over him.
11) Even if he was full sized there was little which could be done without hurting someones feelings.
10 Jordan is a little and seeing Emily being a giant now, if he cant get over her and be into Kelli then he is a moron and deserves to be beating his meat in his cage lol.
1) and I thought Steph was the gossip hoarder.
2) I like it too, I couldn’t go vegetarian either.
4) I figurered but there have been a few times where she’s ignored him, or worse.
9) That’s not the problem, it’s the fact this very personal thing has had little to no input from him. Jordan barely knows Kelli and has no idea if romance is even his goal in life at this point.
11) If he was full size he wouldn’t be anywhere near this issue.
1) Steph is a gossip which is different then Ellie. As Ellie doesn’t gossip. She just knows things and can use it to her advantage when needed.
9) would it not be similar to a blind date or being setup?
