Disclaimer: Commander In Chief…. Not mine…. Rod Louries… any questions? Good . Lets get on with it.
A/N: I wanted to deal with Becca. I wanted a story to show her relationship with her mother because I don't think Becca understands what her mother goes through. I also don't think that Mac understands that Becca just wants her attention. And not the nations.
So I'm posting this… and another story. And then when I am ready… and if you like it… I will start posting all three stories (including LBP) at the same pace.
Thursday MorningThe alarm rings. The clock blinked six and a slim hand snaked out from beneath the covers searching for it. "Off damn it." Becca said pounding on the box. She sat up in bed stretching languidly. She stepped out of bed sliding on her slippers and putting on her robe. She turned on her computer and headed straight for the shower.
BBBB
Mac stretched and yawned. Her neck was stiff and her glasses were pinching her nose. She had been up for hours pouring over her homeless initiative bill. The alarm went off and she reached out and slapped it before it really had a chance to register in her husbands dozing mind. "Wake up Mr. Calloway," she muttered jabbing an elbow in his back.
"Ow Mac!" Rod said groaning and putting the pillow over his head. "I didn't even hear the alarm go off."
"Oh it went off." Mac said picking her paperwork back up.
"How long have you been up?" He asked sliding out of bed. As soon as he was out Mac spread out taking up the bed.
"I don't know, maybe a few hours."
"You going rowing today?" Rod asked heading into the shower.
"I did a swim circuit already." Mac said with a sigh. Rod stepped into the shower and a smirk etched on her features. She pulled back the covers and stripped off her sweats on her way to the bathroom. "Mr. Calloway may I join you?"
Rod grinned as he felt her hand caress his back. "I stand at the leisure of the president."
MMMMM
Becca headed out of the bathroom drying her hair with a towel. She checked her email- and made sure she had all of her assignments ready. Then she headed for her closet to get the best grungy outfit that she had.
"Now let's see," she mumbled picking out her makeup and beginning her calculated decent into Rebellion.

"Good morning everyone." Mac said walking out to the breakfast table. A relaxed smile on her face. She'd had a really good morning. She made her rounds around the table. She kissed Amy's head and hugged Horace. She patted her mothers shoulder and took a seat.
"You're in a good mood." Kate stated.
Mac smirked to herself and reached out for her coffee cup. "Mom, gross." Becca said as she was coming to the table, having caught the glint in her mother's eyes as she glanced at her father.
Mac raised her brow and took a sip. "Good morning to you too Becca."
"Hey guys Guess what?" Rod said changing the subject, "Tonight we're all having dinner with the Japanese Prime Minister."
"Can't I just stay here?" Becca asked .
"No, It's a family thing." Mac said.
"Come on," Becca protested, "I have like a ton of homework to do, and I was.. I just don't want to go."
"You're going, and that's final."
"Fine." Becca said storming out of the dining room.
Mac leaned back in her chair, still in a good mood. Rod walked off behind his daughter and the other two followed. "You've had a really good morning." Kate said peaking over her own cup. "I would have at least lost the grin by now."
Mac laughed, and stood from the table. "I have to go ruin my good mood." She leaned over and kissed her mother's cheek. "I'll see you later mom."
"Have a great day honey."
