A/N From the final word to the flash forward how did the heck's and especially Sue and Sean get where they were all those years later. What happened that broke them up twice before they said I do. Was it all smooth sailing for Axl and Lexie What happened to Cindy. Who is Brad's boyfriend And most importantly of all Did Sue and Sean have kids. this is the road to being a Donahue oh and beyond but that title is too long LOL
Sue was pouting in the back seat as they reached Denver. "Sue he's on a plane he won't even have his phone." Frankie pointed out to her daughter.
"I know I just miss him and it will be three whole months before I can see him again." She sighed and rested her head against the back of the seat.
"Ugg make me gag why don't you." Axl rolled his eyes. "This is why I hate it when you date my friends you get all love sick and now every time I want to hang out with Sean I'm going to have to deal with you."
"Oh really." Sue sat up and glared at her brother. How do you think it feels when you and Lexie are together and I'm the third wheel."
Axl sniffed. That's different you've only know Lexie three years I've known Sean since I was born."
"Yeah and…?" she tapped her foot as she looked at her elder brother impatiently. Well Brick tried to be small in the middle.
"And…" Axl snapped his fingers. "And how do you think Darrin is gong to take this when he finds out."
Sue's eyes got huge. Brick gasped and looked at Axl. "Low Blow." Brick said putting his hand on Sue's shoulder.
"When is the last time you even spoke to Darrin?" Sue snapped.
"Sometime after you turned down his proposal not sure when." She shrugged. Tears prickled at Sue's eyes."
"Why…Why would you..even…bring… him…up." She had tears rolling down her face.
"Axl." Mike snapped from the driver's seat. "Apologize to your sister right now."
Axl looked at a crying Sue and a glaring Brick. He threw his hands up. Look I'm sorry okay I was just messing with you I'm happy for you really. If you had to date anyone I'm glad it's Sean at least I know he'll be good to you."
Sue gave him a tiny smile as she wiped the rest of her tears away. "Thanks." She whispered.
"Don't get all mushy." Axl waved her away as Mike pulled into Axl's new apartment building.
"Okay lets get you unpacked and all moved in." Frankie said trying to sound up beat well at the same time trying not to break down.
"Axl come with me so we can get all your paperwork signed Mike said leading him towards the building well Frankie, Sue and Brick gathered things from the back of the car. Soon Axl and mike were back with the keys and they moved Axl into his new apartment.
"Oh it's really nice." Frankie said looking around.
Mike clapped Axl on the shoulder "I'm proud of you son."
"Why don't we all go out to eat one last time as a family before we leave you here and don't see you for months." Frankie's lip wobbled. "I won't cry I won't."
"Mom it's okay." Axl tried not to role his eyes.
"Okay everyone back to the car lets find some place to eat then it's to the hotel for all of us and a goodbye to Axl."
"No." Frankie shook her head we'll be back to see him in the morning before we head back to Indiana."
"mom no I Have to go to work in the morning?"
"Oh really smartie because someone has to drive you to work so you can pick up your company car."
"oh yeah thanks mom."
Sue Giggled well Brick almost ran into a wall well reading his book. They all piled into the car and headed to a local Chinese place. An hour later they found themselves back at Axl's and Frankie was smothering him with hugs and kisses.
"Mom." Axl pulled away from her enough I'll see you in the morning."
"Frankie come on." Mike moved her through the door. When they made it to the hotel and all collapsed on their beds exhausted from the trip. "Sue you may check your phone." Mike said.
"Uh no she's can't." Frankie looked a bit embarrassed.
"Why not?" Mike asked looking over at his wife.
"I may have used up the data to send Nancy the video of Sean and Sue."
"Frankie."
"Well it was just to cute not to." She defended herself.
"it's fine Sue I will pay the overage check your messages."
"Thank you Daddy." Sue's smile lit up the room and she pulled her phone out seeing four text messages.
One the group text from brad and the acapella group.
Sue we are so so so happy for you! Party when you get back.
One from Lexie
Brad just told me girls night when you get back!
One from Carly dang she had almost forgotten about Carly they hadn't spoken since New years. She had almost forgotten that Carly even had a baby. She wasn't sure what the babies name even was to tell the truth.
Oh my lord I just head that you and Sean are a couple lucky!
She just smiled and shook her head and then looked at her last text. It was from Sean and a full blown smile spread across her face.
About to board the plane. These three months will fly by promise Love you.
She ignored all the others and sent one to Sean
I love you so much these next three months better fly by xoxo
She then powered down her phone and pulled the covers around herself. The next morning they woke up and Frankie jumped out of the bed.
"Mike wake up we're gong to be late picking up Axl up now now now."
"huh." Mike sat up.
"Up we have to get Axl I forgot to set the alarm. "Sue Brick get up."
"What, What." Sue sat up and looked around.
"Up we have to go and get Axl. "Brick get up." She pushed her youngest.
"I'm up I'm up." He looked around wildly some how they all ended up dressed and found Axl pacing outside his building.
"Thank god did all your phones die or something I tried to call you." He slipped into the car and Mike drove towards his new job.
"well here you are." Mike said pulling into the lot.
"Thanks Dad, mom, Brick. Oh and Sue take care of Lexie okay." He got out of the car and waved.
"there goes my baby" Frankie sniffed as they pulled away and headed back towards Indiana.
