The flight felt like forever; especially when shepherd and Beckett started fighting over weather a puddle jumper counted as a plane or not. I agreed with John that Puddle jumper's were basically advanced alien planes. Though I do have to admit Carson came up with a few compelling arguments on why they weren't considered planes.
Upon arrival at the airport I was greeted by my ex-husband.
"I thought only you were coming. Who are they?" He asked.
Great now I had to explain without sounding crazy and not mentioning space.
"This is Carson Beckett." I said pointing to Carson.
As if realizing I didn't know what to say next Carson stepped in.
"Dr. Weir has been under a ton of stress lately, and I'm here to evaluate her progress till she can get back to work." He said.
"Whatever." he shrugged turning to me. "Here are the keys to my car -which is parked on the far right end of the parking lot- and the key to the house." he said handing me a key ring. "I'll be back in two weeks, don't destroy the house."
He left to go on whatever trip he had planned. He planned it just because I was going to be here for that time, well possibly more.
"Well he seems jolly." Shepherd said "So, why are we here? And who was that?"
No one had told John what was going on yet.
"I'd rather not talk about it. You'll see when we get there."
"This is the place." I said turning the car into the drive way.
I only knew that because Evelyn had sent me a picture before i boarded the plane. It was a lovely house but it was getting harder to see as the sun went down.
Opening the door and stepping out of the car I took some time to just take in the whole street.
"Gosh, I forgot how annoying seat belts were." John said slamming his door.
Beckett and Shepherd followed me too the door, carrying my luggage -they wouldn't let me do it myself since this trip was all about me.-. Taking A deep breath I reached forward barely touching the doorbell before I could hear it ring. From the second floor I could hear someone yell.
"Hey grandma, can you get the door! Ethan and I are in the middle of a game."
The door opened revealing a smiling old woman.
"Elizabeth, great that you could come. Who are your friends?" She asked.
I smiled and pulled her in for a hug.
"This is Carson Beckett and John shepherd." I said knowing she didn't need or want an explanation of why they were here.
"Come on in." She said moving out of the way.
The house was beautiful, I hadn't known her for long but this is definitely what I pictured her house to be like.
"Nice place you got here." John said putting down the bag and suitcase he had insisted on carrying.
"Thank you." She replied before turning towards the stairs. "Benny, get down here, someone wants to see you."
There was a groan and a pause before a tall boy with brown hair bounded down the stairs.
"I was about to- Mom!?"
AN: Should i continue? and any suggestions for the title?
