PAIRING: sam monroe x vinnie
SAM MONROE from the very first weeks of being a teenage dad swore to himself he would introduce Vinnie proper music when he would be ready. But waiting was the worst test of patience Sam had ever witnessed. He'd fantasize about this moment late at night, trying to doze off to sleep. He'd think about it whenever a set of headphones covered his ears, sending a loud bass of rock music. Shortly to say, he thought about it a lot. So it was just easy to prophet that he would not stop himself anymore, and try to pass down on Vinnie genes biology couldn't.
“Alright, lil’ man,” he said, popping in a scratched CD through the radio “This right here? This is history. This is culture. This is—Green Day. The best music you'll ever listen. It built me as a man, Vin. If you dont like it, then theres no hope for me anymore.." his voice lowered, as he toyed with some buttons "..then I failed as a dad"
Vinnie didn't seem to understand anything from what Sam just told him about. Green Day? No hope? Best music? Is he about to listen another peppa pig theme? He blinked slowly, tiny fingers tightening their hold around the worn out bunny that has been missing one eye. He tilted his head, squinting up at Sam like he was trying to figure out if this was some kind of trick.
Then the music started. Guitars screamed, a roar of some man followed. Sam bobbed his head immediately. “Yeahhh, that’s the good stuff—come on, Vinnie, feel that? That’s angst in its purest form. You gotta get this in your bones early.” Vinnie’s face slowly scrunched. He looked... offended. Deeply. Personally. Like the guitar riff had just insulted his entire short life.
“C’mon! Rock out with me!”
Vinnie just blinked again, then raised his hands to cover his ears "No, tank oo.”
Sam paused, a bitterness feeling crossing his chest. So he did fail as a father..in a way...in his own eyes. He quickly wiped the clouding thoughts and clumsily turned the music off “No—what? No thank you?”
Vinnie shook his head slowly. “Too loud.”
Sam stared at him, slack-jawed. “It’s supposed to be loud. That’s the point.”
But Vinnie was already scooting away, grabbing his bunny and shuffling over to the corner where he pressed a button on his little toy that played twinkly lullabies and soft animal sounds. Sam's mouth opened in confusion. “You’d rather listen to the rainforest than Green Day?”
Vinnie nodded solemnly. “Bunny like dis one.”
"Well bunny has no taste" he grumbled
Little boy mumbled something under his breath before clutching his bunny tight and hugging to it while swaying side to side. After a brief pause he continued "if no-if no da wain..then milli vanili, pwease thammy?" He lisped with hope
"You want me to play milli vanilli?"
Sam sighed in final surrender. “…Fine. We’ll vibe to milli vanilli.”
