Normal POV:

Darry sighed softly as Skylar sat up and rubbed her eyes with her passy in her mouth. Darry held his hand out for Skylar's passy. Skylar looked up at Darry in confusion. She would usually set it aside or hold on to it. Darry never took it from her. Skylar popped it out of her mouth and gave it to him.

Darry figured it was time to ween Skylar off the passy. She was starting to get too old for it. He didn't know how this was going to play out and was already nervous.

"Dawr." Skylar said getting out of bed and following Darry. "Passy?"
Darry shook his head. "No sweetie, not right now."
Skylar was still confused. Why did he take her passy?

Skylar then remembered that she had a few more hidden in her play room. She ran to her play room and opened up one of the drawers of the small dresser. She gasped when she saw that there were no passies.

"Dawr." Skylar said running up to Darry as he made breakfast. "Passy all gone."
"Mhm." Darry hummed.
Skylar tugged on his pants. "Where awre dey?"
"Gone." Is all Darry said.
Skylar seemed to take that answer. A small pout formed on her lips, but she went back into her play room to play with her toys until breakfast.

After breakfast, she asked Darry again. "Passy?" Darry took a deep breath in before letting it out. "No passy right now, Skylar."

Skylar was becoming discouraged. She just wanted her passy while she looked at some books. She always had her passy while looking at books.

Sodapop came into the play room to check up on Skylar, but that was a mistake. "Soda." Skylar lisped making the 's' into 'th'. "I want passy." She said clinging on to Soda's legs. Soda hissed while taking a breath in. "Skylar, sweetie, I don't know where your passies are." He lied. Skylar let out a frustrated moan and fell dramatically on her butt. Soda wanted to make her feel better and give her a passy so she would stop bugging them, but he knew Darry wouldn't appreciate that.

Skylar decided to try again with Darry and then she was going to move on to her other 2 brothers.

"Dawr", Skylar said. "Whewr is my passy?" Darry knew he would have to tell her at some point today. "Skylar, you're getting too old for them." He said. "They're going to ruin your teeth if you keep sucking on them. No more passy."

Skylar's eyes widened. Her lip quivered. It was almost as if Darry told her she wasn't allowed to breathe anymore. Darry felt bad as the first sob came out of Skylar's mouth.

"Skylar, you'll be fine." Darry said pulling her into a hug. "It's okay."
"Passy Dawr." Skylar sobbed into Darry's chest. "No passy, sweetie." Skylar sobbed once more. She told Darry she would do anything to get her passy. When that didn't work, she gave him little kisses on the cheek. And when that didn't work, she sat on the bottom stair that was used as timeout.

Darry smiled sympathetically. "Skylar, you're not in trouble." Skylar put her head in her hands as she continued to cry. Darry walked over to her and picked her up. "Skylar, how about we make a deal." He said as she cried on his shoulder. "I'll let you sleep with your passy during nap time and night time, but I have it the rest of the day."

Skylar lifted her head from Darry's shoulder. "I have passy?" She sniffled. "You can have your passy when you take your nap later." Darry said wiping her tears with his thumb. "Okay Dawr."
"You good now?" Darry asked.
Skylar nodded.
"Do you think you can play until lunch?"
Skylar nodded again.
"Okay." Darry said putting her down. "Go play."

After lunch, Skylar was more than ready to take a nap. Darry had never seen her run up the stairs that fast when he said the two magic words.

Skylar got out a book and climbed on to her bed. "Dawr!" She called as she got under the covers. Darry laughed coming into her room. "Are you sure you want your passy?" He teased. "Yes!!" Skylar exclaimed. Darry handed it to her. Skylar shoved that passy in her mouth as if that was her life support. Darry chuckled and laid.down with her in her bed and read her the book that she chose.

Darry smiled down at her sleeping body after he finished the book. He kissed the top of her head before leaving her and the beloved passy.
