-GOODLUCKCHARLIE-
The Duncan house has been silently quiet since what had occurred a few months. Amy Duncan and Bob Duncan had gotten a divorced since Amy had found out that Bob had cheated on him, also the fact Amy was beginning to flirt with a new doctor at the hospital from Texas.
"Kids, breakfast!" Shouted Amy.
Coming into the room first was Teddy, her blonde hair has blue streaks in it. Amy allowed her daughter to do it, she thinks that it is a rebellious thing since the whole divorced happened. Teddy almost got her belly button pierced but chickened out.
"Can Ivy and Katie come over after school?" Teddy asked.
Amy looked from the lunches she was packing, "I don't see why not."
In came Gabe, he was trying to act as if nothing really happened. He was affected by this but just played it cool. Amy knew the boy will come to him when he feels up to it.
"Hey mom, what's for breakfast?" Gabe asked.
"Blueberry pancakes and bacon!" Amy said placing a plate down for him.
Gabe smiled and began to dine in his breakfast. Teddy was eating but was on her phone texting her friends, Amy knows that Teddy's way of letting out her built up rage and confusion is by being with her friends. Amy found out from Teddy that her friend Katie, her parent's got a divorced when Katie was ten. So Teddy said Katie is helping her through it.
"Hey, can you babysit tomorrow night?" Amy asked.
Teddy looks up, "Yeah why?"
Amy didn't know how to say it, "Um Brad and I are going out to see a movie."
Brad, that name that caused their parent's marriage. Not only his name but the women their father is seeing. Teddy hated both parent's "partner" and really didn't want a step parent or wanted to get to know them.
"Why can't PJ?" Teddy asked playing with her food.
"He has finals." Amy explained.
"Sure," Teddy said.
In the back door came their older brother, PJ. He has dressed a lot darker and his hair needed a hair cut. He smelled heavy of smoke, which made Amy upset that her son would make that mistake. She saw the box in his back pocket as he went into the fridge to grab a bottle of water.
"I'd wish you'd quit." Amy said.
PJ turned, "I'm fine mom." He replied.
Gabe looked up at his brother, "Does it taste good?" Gabe asked.
Amy shook her head, "No its bad for you!"
PJ rolled his eyes, "Yes its bad for you. That is why I am quitting." He turned to his mom.
"Do you have the patch? Have you stopped buying them?" Amy asked.
PJ raised his hands, "I'll start mom. Get off my back, oh before I jet do you need me to pick any of me up from school?" PJ asked.
"Oh, well Brad said he might pick Gabe up and I am pretty sure that B- your father is going to take Teddy and her friends home." Amy said.
The kids knew how painful it was to say her ex husband's name. PJ nods and takes a drink of his water, the other kids nodded as well but they were eating their breakfast.
"Want me to take them in?" PJ asked.
"Um I can take Gabe in, I have an early shift. Can you take Teddy?" Amy asked.
Teddy raised her eye brow, "Yeah sure." PJ replied.

Teddy stepped into PJ's 1963 Lincoln Continental, Teddy admired her brother's taste in old school cars. He kept it nice, and it didn't smell of smoke yet he had only started that habit after their parent's ended their marriage.
"Get it a car wash, recently?" Teddy asked.
PJ nods as he lights his cigarette, "Yeah these damn birds."
Teddy laughed, "Yeah I hear mom complain about the same thing."
PJ pulls out of the driveway and drives down the street. At first it was silent, then the two started small chat. Like Teddy would ask how he was or he'd ask how school was. It was the awkward moment between them.
"Did you start smoking because of mom and dad?" Teddy asked.
PJ glanced at his sister for a split second then continued to drive, "What makes you think that?"
"Well since you and Emmett moved out, um he started and then the whole divorce caught everyone off guard." Teddy said.
PJ exhaled the smoke flew back out the window as he drove with one hand, "Yeah and not to mention the affairs." He said.
"Dad didn't sleep with anyone." Teddy said.
"He still cheated," PJ said.
"You hate him, don't you?" Teddy asked.
PJ didn't reply. He put the cigarette back in his mouth and hit the breaks at a red light.
"I know you haven't visited him since the divorce. You know he asks for you?" Teddy asked.
PJ nods, "I bet."
PJ turns at the light and continues straight down the street. He had finished his cigarette and threw it out. PJ turned left down another street and finally pulled up at Teddy's school also known as his old school.
"Thanks for the ride," Teddy said.
"No problem." PJ said.
Teddy exits the car and hears her brother drive off, sorta like a race car driver. She rolls her eyes and walks up to the school. Once she entered the school she sees Ivy who had quickly smelled the smell of smoke on her. Luckily for Teddy, her best friend had the cure to that.
"So PJ is still smoking?" Ivy asked.
"Yeah," Teddy said.
"Damn, I mean he was such a sweet guy." Ivy said.
"Yeah, the divorce has been hard." Teddy said.
Ivy nods, "I can tell. You're extreme change with adding blue to your hair, was well- sudden." Ivy said.
"It'll fade, it won't last more than a few weeks." Teddy said.
"Oh good, sorry Teddy but you aren't the rebel type." Ivy said.
Teddy laughed and walked to her locker, "Yeah I know."

"Hey Gabe," Said a familiar voice.
Gabe looked up from his Harry Potter book his teacher told him to read. It was Jo, usually his enemy but this time she seemed a but concern.
"Jody told me about the divorce. I am sorry, why didn't you tell me?" Jo asked.
"Cause I knew you'd make fun of me." Gabe replied.
"Make fun of you? Gabe, my dad cheated on my mom with a women in another state! Then after they were divorced they got remarried after two years." Jo said.
Gabe lighten up, "Really?"
Jo nodded, "I understand what you're dealing with. It's confusing and hard." She said.
Gabe nodded, "I'll say."
Jo smiles, "If you need someone to talk to I'll be that someone." Jo said.
"Thanks, Jo." Gabe said.
First chapter up! Like the idea of the kids being affect by it, well besides Charlie who is 3. Thinking PJ's smoking habit is kind of extreme but there will be a good storyline behind it, also with Teddy rebelling I sorta have an idea of her possibly getting a tattoo. Also maybe with Gabe might have him do something reckless to bring the family together, I don't know but tell me if you like it!
