One where reader wants a pet but Maria thinks they’re too little to walk an animal by themselves and thinks that cats scratch too much so they agree on a frog/fish and reader gets really excited about it and Maria’s just chasing after them in the pet store as they hold their new friend in a tank ?
New pet- maria hill x little y/n
Warnings: age regression
"Mommy!" Y/n smiled climbing on maria's lap. "Yes sweetheart?" She asked slightly sceptical of the little's joy. "Can we get a puppy? Pleeaseee." They asked for the fifth time that week, Maria sighed. "Baby, we've talked about this, having a puppy is a lot of responsibility. Who's going to take care of it?"
"I can do it! I will give them cuddles and food and I can clean up after it." Y/n exclaimed giving their best cute face to make maria give in, but to no avail. "Baby, what if your little and mommy isn't here? You can't go on long walks by yourself, and dogs need to be walked at least once every single day, sometimes more. It will be too much work for us baby, it's not fair on the dog either."
Maria's heart broke as the little's eyes filled up with tears. "Okay, how about we make a deal? We can go sit together and research some pets and find something a little more suitable for us than a dog?" Y/n nodded enthusiastically. "If we don't, can I has a puppy?" They asked hopefully. "We can look into it yes, but no promises. Now let's go look at some other options."
"Mommy look is a kitty! It's so cute." Y/n grinned, pointing at the screen. "Yeah, cats are cute, they're not always very cuddly and friendly though. You have to be careful with them."
"Yeah, they can bite and their scratches hurts. I don't want dat." Maria nodded, "me neither, how about something smaller." Maria scrolled further down the webpage to find pictures of fish; she noticed y/ns face light up. "You like those hm?" Y/n nodded with a huge smile, "I wan fish please mommy."
"Okay it's almost bedtime, I will look into it tonight and see if we can make it happen." After the little went to bed she spent the majority of the night researching the correct equipment and care techniques for different types of fish and where to get them. She ordered all the equipment including a large tank that she hid in the back of her closet to surprise y/n. She waited till she had everything she needed and set up the tank whilst y/n was asleep one night so they would find it the next morning.
"y/n sweetheart wake up; mommy has something to show you." After a little persuasion the little got up, taking her mommy's hand. "Mommy is a fishy tank!" Y/n exclaimed jumping up and down with excitement. "Yes, I know I said it would be a while but I know how much you want one so I figured we could go get one today."
"Can we gets two so he isn't lonely?" Maria chuckled lightly, "I guess we will have to see. Now come on let's go get ready."
"Mommy! Mommy hurry up!" Y/n pleaded watching maria move things around in the car. "Hang on sweetheart, we're in public so you know the rules, stay with me and no yelling when we are inside, or you might scare the animals." Y/n nodded excitedly. "sorry mommy I will listen I promise." The caregiver smiled, "thank you baby."
"Hey guys, do you have an idea of what you need today?" The worker asked. "Yes, this one wants a pet fish." The agent replied pulling the little into a side hug. "Or two!" Y/n interrupted, "Or two." The agent added with a chuckle. "Okay, right this way."
Y/n's eyes scanned over the various tanks until they spotted two goldfish further to the right. "Mommy look, they're friends." Maria nodded. "It looks like it, is a goldfish what you want?" Y/n enthusiastically nodded. "But..." they smiled up at her, playing with their fingers.
"we can't separate them, then the other one will be all alone." they frowned. "I guess we can't have that, okay but after this... no more. I don't care how many friends they have after that we don't need more than two." Y/n nodded hugging maria. "You're the best, thank you." The agent placed a kiss on their head. "You are more than welcome y/n just make sure you look after them, okay?"
"Do you guys have a tank to put them in for the ride home? The plastic bags aren't ideal." The worker asked maria and nodded to go and retrieve the tank. After a while the worker handed over the tank. "Okay here are your fish, enjoy your new pets."
"Yay! hi fishies. I luv them mommy thank you!" Maria smiled kissing y/n's forehead. "You're welcome baby, now give them to me so I can carry them, you can have them back when we get in the car."
"Nuu they mine." Y/n frowned pulling the tank to their chest. "Yes, baby but you need to let mommy carry them, now hand it over or I will put the fish in my room, and you won't be able to see them till tomorrow." Y/n shook their head, running off with the tank. "Y/n come back here."
"He's looking at me mommy he's so cute." The little replied before taking off again. "Y/n the sooner you stop the sooner we can take them home now give me the tank, now please."
"But mommy we're playing." Y/n whined looking at their new friends, "yes but if you fall or drop the tank you will hurt the fish, we have to be careful with them, now give it to me please." Maria said firmly when she caught up to the little. "Okay mommy I don't want them to get hurt. I'm sorry." they apologised, following their caregiver to the car.
Maria placed the tank in the back with y/n securing it with the seatbelt. "thank you for my surprise mommy." They grinned. "I love you."
"you're welcome sweetheart, I love you too baby. Let's show your friends their new home hm?" she smiled kissing their head and shutting the door.
