"Holy Merlin, Emm, LOOK!" It was safe to say that Alexa Cambridge had no chill when surrounded by this much sugar and the kid on her hip was no better. The little one reached for everything her mother pointed out to her, eagerly trying to fit them all into her tiny hands as she was quite reluctant to set them in the basket. Were this another store, Lex may have firmly reminded her the things did NOT belong to her but....all this sugar....it was a regular shopping spree. Halloween had come hella early. "Oh, go grab that one for mummy." She suggested, setting her down to grab the cauldron cakes from the bottom shelf. The only problem came when she saw the one...then tried for the other....and another....
Pretty soon the candy was falling all about the floor but the little miss didn't care, oh no. She'd heard voices and had headed down the aisle. Curiously, Lex watched her go, following at a close enough distance while hazel eyes continued to scan the shelves. Emmerson made it all the way to the end before turning into the next. There, she saw familiar people, but not quite familiar in her memory for her to do much more than stand there staring. Green eyes locked onto the pair momentarily before turning to the Princess gum. "That." But before she could properly make demands, she was being scooped up, back into arms she knew very well. "And here I thought I'd seen everything." There was nothing to hide the amused look as she properly entered the aisle to admire the gorgeous face that was Sayid pappadeaux. Today he would be the one to deal with a demanding child and the idea left her positively tickled. Emmerson might not have outright recognized Sayid and Yolanda but that was not the case for her father and half-sister. The reactions of the two were strikingly similar; a blink- a gasp and the widening of identical green eyes. "Emmser!" Yoyo said, getting over her momentary shock to become a beaming being of innocent happiness. They might have had different moms and all but it wasn't weird plenty of other kids she knew had two moms or no moms or sometimes even one mom and two dads- Emmerson was her baby sister and nothing was better than seeing her baby sister (okay, except maybe new things or coloring just in the lines, or falling asleep in her mom's arms).
A second later and tia alexa was picking up Emmerson and giving Papi that look that grown women were always giving him. "Hola, Tia Lexa- I didn't think you guys were gonna be here- did you and papi plan this as a surprise for me and Emmers? You know if you two wanted to surprise us you could have just bought is some gifts, this is good too- and you love candy right? Papi told me you love candy. I love candy too." the little latina talked on, her voice louder than necessary as she played with the hem of Emmerson's dress and smiled bright and big for Alexa. Sayid couldn't even get a word in with Yoyo going on like this, but he wasn't the type to cut the kid off. Not when she was just harmlessly rambling on and besides, he was too busy giving Alexa a look which showed exactly what he thought of her little amused grin. He could have kicked himself, the one place on this earth he should've bet on meeting Alexa Cambridge was a well stocked candy store. He wet his lips, cherry lollipop reddened tongue peeking out. "Thought it was an auror's job not to be surprised." he playfully sneered. The expression shifted, but only a little as the dark man watched his little blonde daughter.
"my little honey." he grinned then, a little self-indulgently. This wasn't going to be pleasant for long. He had to enjoy it while the moment lasted and his money was still in his pocket.
