(Im a story writing machine rn xD)
The bright sunshine beamed through the window drapes as the British detective stood in front of a standing mirror that was hung on the back of his door. In his hands were the straps for the tie he wore to work every day.
-Just through the collar and..-
Laff straightened the knot on his tie as he smiled at himself in the mirror.
"Aha! No more wearing your jam-jams all day Mate! Man, yous are looking sharp today!" He chuckled as he spoke to himself in the mirror. "I hope I can convince Ida if she can put the word forth to my raise today. Wouldn't want to ask the superintendent straight up, I might get my teeth knocked out along with the harsh 'no', eh mate?"
A happy squeal came from the bassinet as Laff looked over, smiling warmly and walking over.
"Yes mate, your pop is gonna ask the nice lady at his work if he can get a raise!" He chuckled and picked Nadwe up, huffing softly "I wish I can take you with me, everyone would go bonkers over yous. But maybe when you are older."
Nadwe was sucking on his security blanket as he cooed.
Laff walked out of his room and took out his phone "Speaking of, we need to call Mr.Socks and Mr.Meme. Them both are gonna watch you today." He dialed Socks number "and maybe for the next few weeks if you behave yourselfs."
Nadwe squeaked and threw the security blanket, earning a sigh from Laff as he set his phone to the speaker so he could pick it up.
The line connected. "Hello? Laff? W-What are you calling this early for?"
Laff handed the security blanket back to Nadwe "Socks mate I'm calling to make sure you and Meme are in your way."
"...Laff, me and Meme are still out of town."
Nearly choking on a breath caught in his throat, Laff looked over at where he set his phone.
"...Mate please tell me you're joking."

It wasn't Laff's original idea to bring his son to his work at the age of a week or so; but with every single one of his friends busy he really didn't have much of a choice.
Doesn't help he's kinda tight on cash to hire some random teenager he's never met to watch Nadwe, so that was out of the question.
So by default, he has to take him with him to work and hope his boss doesn't find out.
Holding the mentioned child in his arms, wrapped up in a blanket and carrying the baby bag in the other hand; Laff walked into the employee door.
Nadwe cooed softly as Laff walked past the receptionist and towards his desk.
He was almost instantly intercepted by his co-workers who caught a glimpse of the baby.
"Awwwww! He's so cute!!"
"Laff, who the hell is the lucky gal!?"
"He has chubby cheeks! Can I pinch them!?"
"Damn look at those tiny ass tootsies! And those booties-! I can't even deal-!"
Laff was kind of expecting a big fuss over Nadwe, but fuck he didn't expect two thirds of the office to crowd around him and Nadwe. He felt his hold on Nadwe tighten as he grew tense, watching each of his co-workers and their movements.
A husky laugh cut through the commotion as a simple officer worker with a red beanie walked over.
"Hey now, don't crowd around them. Laff has a job to do just like the rest of us. So go on now, back it up everyone."
With much disappointment, the crowd dispersed and went back to their current tasks. Sighing in relief, Laff turned to the slightly taller purple haired man. "Mate, thank you Shroobz."
Shroobz laughed quietly and nodded "Hey no problem Laffen." He chuckled "on the related note, when did you get a kid? I assumed with everyone else you didn't really NEEDED a child."
Laff rolled his eyes and walked to his desk "Ha Ha H a" he put emphasis on the last 'ha' as he set his work bag down "Very funny Shroobz. But it is a long story...Well, to put it simply, I adopted the little lad." He looked down at Nadwe and smiled "He needed a home and well, I happened to have found him."

Shroobz smiled as he sat at his desk across from Laff. "Hey that is really nice of you Laff."
Laff smiled softly and gently set Nadwe down on his desk. "Okay hum-..." He opened one of his drawers and took out the folders inside. He unwrapped Nadwe and lined the inside of the drawer with it. "How about this..?" He picked up Nadwe gently and laid him inside.
Nadwe cooed softly and began suckling on the deer's ear of his security blanket.
Shroobz glanced over the two desks at what Laff was doing.
"...not really for putting your baby in a drawer, but putting him in a file drawer in case Chamlers comes over?"
Laff chuckled softly, "Well, it is roomier than any of the other drawers."
An older man was walking over, his fists clenched and with a pissed off look "LAFFENGAS!"
Laff jumped and quickly closed the drawer Nadwe was in before getting up, standing at attention "Good morning SuperIntendent!" Chamlers huffed and took off his hat "That's Superintendent CHALMERS to you Mr.Gas! Care to explain why you were so fucking late!?"
Laff stood there unmoving as Shroobz just sat and watched.
"Well sir, you are aware I do not have a car and walking here from my home is quite a ways away-"
"That does not give you any excuse to be late ON MY TIME!" Chalmers shouted in his face. "If you are to be expected here at 0800 hours, YOU SHOULD BE HERE BEFORE 0800 HOURS!!"
Inside the drawer, Nadwe flinched from the yelling and whined, moving his hands up to cover his ears.
Chalmers heard the whine and looked around "What the FUCK was that-!?"
Shroobz cleared his throat "Well um, Mr.Chalmers, that was me. You do know on my file I have traumatic episodes when provoked."
Chalmers huffed and rubbed the bridge of his nose "Right, of course. My apologies Mr.Shroobz, but YOU-" he pointed to Laff "You better work your ASS off today to make up for the week you got of paid vacation!" He turned and walked away.
Laff waited until he was out of sight before relaxing, huffing in anger.
"He is such an ASS sometimes that I just cant-!"
Shroobz stood up and walked over "Take a breath, Laff. He's gonna be supervising your work and you shouldn't be fuming."
Laff took a breath and rubbed his head "You're right...but what about Nadwe-?" He opened the drawer back up and picked Nadwe up; who was sniffing and whining in his arms. "I can't bring him with- I'm already in hot water with the ass."
Shroobz scratched his chin as he thought "Hmm…"
Nadwe whined quietly as Laff rubbed his head gently, trying to console him.
Shroobz waved his hand slightly "You know, I have nothing but paper work today. Why don't I watch him?" Laff looked up at him with a surprised expression "Really mate-?"
The latter nodded and took Nadwe into his arms. "Of course, you know I Volunteer at the school for underprivileged kids, so I can watch him for a while."
Laff looked surprised "W-wow Shroobz mate, I don't know what to say.."
Shroobz pats his back "Go on, go, go find those sinful bastards and make the streets at night safer for your son."
Laff nodded and walked away to one of the meeting rooms where his work on a case was set up. Nadwe shifted in Shroobz's arms as he whined quietly. Shroobz looked down and smiled softly.
"Hey there little man, looks like you're gonna spend some time with your uncle Shroobz here."
Nadwe pouted and hiccupped quietly.
Shroobz laughed quietly "Hey now, don't get like that. We're gonna have fun." He scratched his chin with his free hand and then snapped his fingers. "Hey now, I know a part of the force you would enjoy seeing."
Nadwe let out a squeak and tilted his head as if he was listening.
(Man Chalmers is a ass huh? XD)

Also, feel free to lob suggestions my way if you have any - while I may not use them, they could very well inspire me in some way or another and help me improve this fiction, even if just by a little bit.
