Two days. Two bloody days were all that Tristan Drage would have left with his young son. He had planned his departure for the early morning, after Thorine left. It was good that she was as fed up with his 'yes love no darling' routine as he was. She left early in the morning and came home late at night. This gave him more than enough time to act like himself- well, as much of himself as he could without making the portraits suspicious.
During one of the days, he had left the house to get Christian a Christmas present. It was all he could really do for his son. He knew that Christian deserved more than what he would give him. He deserved to have his father around, but that wasn't going to happen. In these last days, Tristan's heart was being ripped in two. He wanted to stay with Christian- as a normal man of course- but his love and sense of responsibility to his other family were as equally as strong.
Tristan had gotten Christian a toy broomstick. It was of superior quality, and he knew that his son would love it. Thorine would probably be enraged when she found out, and Goia would faint on the spot. He had hidden it in the kitchens, and finally decided this was the right time. Leading his cherub faced son down to the lower levels, where no portraits could watch them, he brought out the broom. He only had a few minutes to escape from Goia's watchful eye. Grabbing the toy broomstick from a cupboard, he held it before his son.
The little boy stared at the object with wide eyes, unsure what to make of it. Tristan helped him swing his chubby legs over the side of the broomstick, and brought it to a hover. The blonde toddler giggled in excitement as his father first guided him around the place, and then let him go to see what he would do. It wasn't long before Christian was zooming around the wide kitchen in circles. This was all new to him, holding a thrill that running couldn't provide.
Tristan smiled and stood back, ready to keep his son from any harm. He had moved all the tables to another room, and secured everything in the room so that it would be nearly impossible for Christian to hurt himself. "Be careful, Chris!" he intoned, putting his arms over his chest as he stared back at the boy fondly. Thorine and Goia would be angry with him, yes, but they would have to be very cold hearted indeed to take the little boy from his new toy. It was obvious that Christian loved it. And they weren't going to rob him of one of the last fatherly experiences he would probably ever have with his young son.
