The Babysitter (age 4)

Tonight bow and windy we're going for on a date night, which meant they we're going to be leaving rainbow and scootaloo with a babysitter. All of the family were busy which meant they we're having to hire someone via a childminders. This was the first time the children were being left with a stranger.


Windy whistles: do you think the girls are going to be ok?


Bow hothoof: honey they'll be fine, stop worrying.


Windy whistles: it's just it's the first time they've been left over night with someone who isn't family.


*door bell rings*


Bow hothoof: *answers door* hello you must be fizzlepop berry twist?


Fizzle: fizzle is fine, but yes sir I am. You and your wife hired me to look after your children?


Bow hothoof: indeed we did. This is my wife windy whistles.


Windy whistles: hey sweetie.


Fizzle: hey.


Bow hothoof: and these are our children: rainbow dash and scootaloo. Say hi kids.


Scootaloo didn't say anything but waved.


Rainbow: *shyly* hi.


Bow hothoof: right you two be good for fizzle ok? Me and mummy will be back later.


Rainbow was slightly nervous as this was the first time she'd been left with a stranger and over night as well, as by the time her parents got home she would be in bed. Fizzle had no interest in actually entertaining the young children as all she really wanted was the money she was getting from bow and windy.


Rainbow: fizzle? Can we do something?


Fizzle: *bored* like what?


Rainbow: I don't know.


Fizzle: well I think it's almost time for bed anyway.


Rainbow: *agitated* but why?


Fizzle: because I said so now get scoot and get to bed.


Rainbow: but...


Fizzle: NOW!


Rainbow ran up the stairs to scootaloo's bedroom, normally every night she and scoot would have a bath and then either bow or windy would sit and cuddle with them and in scootaloo's case give her a bottle whilst reading them a bedtime story before they went to sleep. However seeing as how fizzle was clearly not going to do any of this stuff rainbow would do it herself as it was important that both kids stayed in routine as much as they could. She managed to give scootaloo a bath which was not easy as she had to try and hold her up. By the end of it there was quite a bit of water on the floor. Next came the fresh nappy and pyjamas, rainbow applied baby powder to scoot before putting a fresh nappy on her and the baby powder went everywhere, rainbow decided she would clean it up after she put scoot to bed. After putting on pyjamas she struggled to take scootaloo to her bedroom.


Rainbow: No story tonight scoot. (This is because rainbow can't quite read yet)


After rainbow put scootaloo to bed and kissed her forehead like she'd seen bow and windy do multiple times she went back into the bathroom to clean up the mess. Just as she started cleaning up fizzle came into the bathroom.


Fizzle: WHAT THE F*CK IS THIS?!


Rainbow: *lip quivering* I-I...


Fizzle: HOW DARE YOU MAKE A MESS LIKE THIS! COME ON I THINK YOU NEED A SMACKED BOTTOM AND THEN TIME OUT!


Rainbow: *crying* n-no please!


But it was no use fizzle had grabbed rainbow by the arm and dragged her out of the bathroom. After ten quite hard smacks she roughly but rainbow in the corner.


Fizzle: RIGHT HALF AN HOUR IN THIS CORNER AND THEN STRAIGHT TO BED.  AND I'LL BE TELLING MUMMY AND DADDY WHAT A NAUGHTY GIRL YOU'VE BEEN!


Rainbow sat in the corner sobbing whilst fizzle watched tv eating crisps from the pantry. What neither of them realised was that bow and windy were about to walk through the door. The corner that rainbow was in is right next to the door and her parents were shocked by the site that met them. Rainbow was shaking and sobbing, she'd also wet herself and threw up all over the floor probably from all the crying. Windy rushed over to her a quickly picked her up and started rocking her.


Windy whistles: shhh shhh shh what's the matter baby? Why you in the corner? You should in bed.


But rainbow didn't answer she was too busy crying and trying not throw up again.


Bow hothoof: why don't you take her upstairs and I'll go talk to fizzle about this?


Windy whistles: ok, come on dashie.


When bow got into the living room he saw that fizzle was sitting with her feet up.


Bow hothoof: do you want to tell me why my daughter was the corner shaking and crying instead of in bed asleep?


Just as fizzle was about to explain windy came back into the living room with rainbow in her arms and looking furious.


Windy whistles: did you smack my child?


*no answer*


Windy whistles: I SAID DID YOU SMACK MY CHILD?!


Fizzle: well she made a mess of the bathroom, and i assumed you would smack her for something like that, so that's what I did!


Windy whistles: ok first of all, we don't smack the children and even if we did she's not your child to smack. And second rainbow told me that the only reason the bathroom is a mess is because she had to do scootaloo's bedtime routine seeing as how you didn't! Now i suggest you get out of our house, and I'll be making sure your boss hears about this!


Fizzle then left.


Windy whistles: i knew leaving them with a stranger was a bad idea.


Bow hothoof: hey come on now, not every kid we hire will be like that. Let's just get to bed, and I think someone will be joining us tonight.


Rainbow: *still crying slightly* mummy?


Windy whistles: *picks rainbow up* shh it's ok sweetie the mean girl is gone. Do you want to sleep with mummy and daddy tonight?


Rainbow: *nods*


Windy whistles: come on then.


Rainbow slept with her parents that night and it was going to be quite a while before bow windy hired a babysitter again.


A/N: request for .
