A/N: Colleen is in here but she is good not bad. I swear!
Chapter 1 – Annie
Nikolas was working at his desk, looking over some paper when he heard the nanny and his 4 kids coming in.
His wife had died 2 years ago yesterday from giving birth to his beautiful boy, Spencer.
Nikolas stood and walked to Annie's picture on the mantle of the fireplace. He touched her face on the picture as the kids walked in.
"Daddy! Daddy! Daddy!" Laura yelled as she ran to Nikolas.
Nikolas grabbed Laura and carried her over to the couch.
"What, sweets," Nikolas asked as he put Laura on the couch.
"At the park, there was a pretty lady sitting on the bench with 2 other kids." Laura told Nikolas.
"Oh, yeah?" Nikolas questioned, "Just how pretty was she."
"So pretty that you should meet her and then get married so we can have a mommy!" Laura exclaimed.
Nikolas' face was blank. He looked like he was going to be sick.
That really hit home for him because his kids never thought of a mom before now.
"Dad?" Natasha asked, "Are you okay?"
Nikolas' face finally came back to reality.
"Yes, Nat, I'm fine." Nikolas said.
Nanny Colleen interpreted them and said "Well, I think its time to go get changed into some better, comfortable clothes."
Everyone expect Katherine and Spencer nodded in agreement.
"Okay then. Go upstairs with Katherine and go change." Nanny Colleen told them.
Natasha took Laura and Katherine upstairs to their rooms.
"Well, I'm going to take Spencer upstairs and put him down for his nap" Colleen said.
"Ok" Nikolas said to Colleen sadly, "Oh, Colleen, thanks so much".
"Oh, it's no problem" Nanny Colleen said.
"I'm going to go out for a little while." Nikolas said to Colleen firmly.
"Ok" Colleen yelled as she went up the stairs to Spencer's room.
