Erin fail again :| 300+

As soon as her hands had wrapped securely around her little brother's form she had lifted him and held him close against her chest, instinct dictating she hold him tightly, but not too tightly. Almost instantly he began to squirm and cry for her to let him go. Cambi held him tight, though when he began yelping she worried she might be hurting him. Somewhat panicked eyes looked at Silvano and then up towards Mati. The only expression on the Nanny's face though was one of stern correction. Surely if Mati thought that she were holding him too tight she would step in or tell her so. As she heaved a sigh of relief her brother finally calmed himself and pleaded that he not tell their mother. "I won't tell Mama, as long as you promise not to do this all by yourself until you're bigger. We don't want you to get hurt Silvano." Even if she hadn't been an adventurous pup, she knew that running to tattle on Silvano would only cause problems for their relationship.

Carefully the chocolate girl lowered herself until she was kneeling on the floor. Then her arms placed her small brother back onto the ground. A small smile came to her face as she looked at him. "I'm sure you probably can do it on your own, but would you humor Mati and me and let us watch you? That way if you do slip we'll be right here to catch you and you won't get hurt." Stifling her brother's wishes didn't seem like a good idea, but she wasn't about to let him brave the stairs on his own yet. Maybe letting him do it now would only encourage him to do it more, but somehow she figured no matter what they did he'd try again. It was better if they supervised him the first go round.
