The way you smile at her, a rosy blush on both of your cheeks and sometimes she hears you talking late at night downstairs when you‘re coming by for a short visit. So she‘ll try everything in her power to get you both closer to fulfill her wish of a second mom <3

”Are we visiting Miss […] again…?“

”Mom, when is […] seeing you again…?“

”I forgot my plushie at the academia, can we go back?“

Or silly remarks when Rover is leaving both of you alone to talk things through with Luuk and Mornye. Aemeath loves loves LOVES your attention and she‘s asking you all kinds of things to get to know you better and showers you in compliments!

And even tells on her parent a bit… to get on your good side of course!

”Mom always mentions how beautiful you look in that dress…“ little Aemeath whispers into your ear, squeezing the paw of her favorite cat plushie.

Now that is certainly an interesting secret… not like you‘re unaware of it. Not at all. But hearing it from that little girl felt a little more… intimate… You offered her a soft smile as you knelt down to her height and little Aemeath couldn’t help but take a few strands of your hair into her fingers. She loved playing with them. Always told you how pretty she thinks your hair is.

”I‘m very flattered to hear these words from someone as special as you, Aemeath…“ you reach a hand up to gently scoop her own hair behind her ear. The girl hugs her plushie tightly in her arms as she hides her mouth and nose behind it.

”Do you like my-”

”Aemeath! It‘s time to leave.” Rover walked back into the classroom with Mornye and Luuk following closely behind her. But instead of obliging-

”Aemeath, let go of her. Come on…“, she fought the shame swelling up in her face as the girl presses herself against your arm, almost knocking you over in the process.

”Only if she comes with us—!“

“A-Amy, I sadly still have some papers to grade—“, you tried reasoning with her as the tears slowly swelled up in her eyes.

What do you do if your adoptive daughter sticks herself to a woman of her choice???? Rover doesn’t remember this page in any of the parenting books she had read over the past months.

But Luuk was sadly faster with his solution.

”Why don’t you take the papers with you and grade them back at their house? Didn’t you… need to go over some data with her…?“ he crossed his arms, a mischievous smile playing around the Doctor‘s lips.

Declining would make you look like an idiot now. Given the puppy eyes Aemeath is hitting you with.

“I… Alright, Amy… Just let me fetch my stuff from my classroom…“ The grin that formed on the girl’s lips was to die for as she grabbed your hand to accompany you along the way.

“Can you braid my hair tonight?” She practically beamed with excitement with little sparks of happiness dancing in her eyes.

“Whatever the starlight wishes for…”

Rover could just stare after the two of you. Arms hanging down at her sides before her head turned to Luuk who was still incredibly smug about his idea. “You just signed my demise, I hope you know that.”

“Demise? I would hardly call it that. Maybe think twice before getting at it in my office next time while I’m not present.” His tone carried something gleeful as his hand patted the woman’s back. “Maybe now you will finally get a move on.”

A rosy color spread across her face before she hit his shoulder. “You know very well that my plan isn’t fit for a relationship.”

“Oh, it isn’t. I know that. But you already are in a relationship, Rover. Might as well use the time you have left with her and Aemeath. You owe them that.” Luuk rubbed the spot she just hit before shaking his head. “Aemeath will have someone to lean on once you proceed with your plan. But who will she have? Neither me nor Mornye are a fit replacement.“

“I’m leaving. See you tomorrow, Doctor.” Gone was her flustered voice, replaced by something dark as she made her way to follow you.
