"I'm home," Cole called walking in the door.

"Hey Cole how was work?" Merrick asked from the table.

"It was a long hard day at the vet's office." Cole informed him then took a seat next to Merrick.

"How was your day?" Cole asked.

"Another boring day." He said then placed a kiss on Cole's lips. "Well until now." He kissed Cole again, and held it. After a few more minutes of kissing they separated when they heard they front door open.

"The cubs are home." Cole informed him. The first one they saw walk in was Elizabeth she looked Merrick. She had the same hair color has him, but you couldn't tell with the newly dyed black hair.

"Hello Elizabeth how was school today?" Merrick asked.

"Good expect I have detention tomorrow." She informed them then tried to walk away.

"Hey wait a second," Merrick said then jumped out of his seat, and to stop her from leaving. "Why do you have detention tomorrow?" Insert the innocent look.

"I freed the frogs from the science lap." Merrick waited for her to tell him more, but she said nothing more. He knew there had to be more.

"Where did you free the frogs?" Merrick asked. Turning her head away, so she didn't have to look at her dad when she said, "I drop the box in the hallway as I made my great escape with the lives I was saving." Merrick stared at her.

"You tried to free the frogs, you dropped the box releasing them all over the school, and now you got detention." She gave nod of her head.

"Are you going to punish me?" Elizabeth asked.

Merrick shook his head.

"I don't think I could come up with a punishment that could cover this." She smiled at him.

"Cool," She walk off into the kitchen to get a snack. Merrick turned to Cole.

"Could we come up a punishment to over that?" Merrick asked. Cole shrugged his shoulders.

"Hey dads," Richard said walking to the room. Richard was a clone of Cole he looked him at that age.

"Richard what is on top of your head?" Cole asked.

"Oh that is my new friend Larry the rat." He informed them.

"How did you meet Larry?" Cole asked. Richard walked up to the table.

"I was walking home from school, and I saw him sitting under a tree. I joined him we started talking, and he is my new friend slash pet." Cole gave a nod of his head.

Elizabeth walked out the kitchen with a half empty bag of chips.

"Hey Richard and hello to you to Larry." She greeted them.

"Elizabeth did you already eat half of that bag?" Cole asked.

"Yeah, I thought you were getting bigger bags?" Merrick stared at her.

"That was family size." He informed her.

"Oh," Then she and her brother walked away. Merrick took a seat next to Cole.

"I don't understand those two sometimes." Cole nodded his head in agreement.

Merrick began to look threw the paper work again.

"How is the wedding coming?" Cole asked.

"So far I got the cake ordered, the suits we have to go in for this weekend, I found someone to marry us, and there a few more details we need to work out with in the two weeks." Cole began to look threw the papers Merrick was going threw.

"Who knew getting married was so much work." Merrick nodded his head in agreement.

"Did Taylor agree to watch the kids while were on our honeymoon?" Cole asked.

"Yep," Richard and Elizabeth walked out of there rooms talking to each other.

"What do guys want for dinner?" Merrick asked. They stop walking.

"Doesn't matter really," Elizabeth answered.

"Pizza it is then."

"Cool," They both said together then walked into the living room.

"Merrick it's been eighteen years I think it is time for one of us to learn how to cook." Cole said not looking up from the paper he was reading. Merrick walked over the phone.

"We could, but all those take out places would be disappointed if we did."
