Okay, so I know these stories are supposed to have mysteries, but I have two of them that don't have mysteries and are one shots where Nancy, Frank, and Joe are really young…so that's going to be the first two chapter!

On to the story!


Ages= Frank: 2 years old. Joe: 1 year old. Nancy: 2 years old.


A little red-headed girl played on the carpet in the living room of her home. She had her short, curly hair all brushed out and tied with a pretty blue bow. She also had a fresh blue flowered dress on and her mother had successfully kept her out of trouble for almost an hour. Most of the girl's toys had been put away, but the stuffed dog, coloring book, and crayons kept the two year old entertained.

A close friend of her father was in town for the weekend, bringing with him his two sons and lovely wife. Her father was bringing the man home for a Sunday afternoon brunch, along with his family of course. The two fathers were hoping to get some work done and the mothers some socializing.

Mrs. Drew was moving about the living room where her daughter was playing, fixing this and straightening that. She wanted everything to be perfect, stunning and perfect. She knew Fenton Hardy, the close friend of her husband, but she had never met his wife. They had been out of the country and unable to attend the wedding and it had been after that when she first met Fenton. He was the same height as Carson at 6 foot, with short dark brown hair, the type that looked almost black. He had kind brown eyes, and over all, Allis Drew liked him. She hoped his wife would be just as nice.

Mrs. Drew glanced at her daughter Nancy, who was now scribbling on a picture of a horse, "Nancy honey, I'll be right back."

"'K Mama," Nancy continued to 'color'. Mrs. Drew stepped into the hallway and made her way to the kitchen. She quickly checked her roast then returned to the living room, where she was relieved to see her daughter still coloring. She smiled lovingly at the little girl, but before she could do anything else, the sound of a car pulling into the driveway.

Allis Drew jumped into action. She picked up the crayons and dropped them into the shoe box that held them all, closed the coloring book, grabbed the dog, and dropped them all into the ornate chest in the corner that served as a toy chest for Nancy.

"Nancy," Her mother said as she picked up the little girl from where she was now looking out the open window, "let's go meet our guests!"

"Okay!"

Mrs. Drew stepped into the hallway again, heels clicking on the hardwood floors, and then took one last glance at herself in the mirror. She pushed a strand of her strawberry blonde hair out of the way of her dark blue eyes, adjusted her green dress and headed toward the door.

"Down!" Nancy demanded when they got to the door. Mrs. Drew smiled and complied. Then she took a deep breath as she pulled the heavy oak door back and stepped and onto the porch. Allis smiled and waved at her handsome husband, glad to see his blue eyes and sandy brown hair.

Fenton Hardy stepped out of the front seat and he two waved. Fenton turned around and opened the door and Mrs. Drew caught a sight of the mysterious Mrs. Laura Hardy. She had long, wavy blonde hair and Allis Drew could see her eyes were blue, even from a distance. She had a lovely pink dress on and a large leather bag slung over her shoulder. She smiled and waved before turning back to the car and leaning inside. She pulled back and handed a little brown haired boy to his father who sat him on the ground. He stood there and watched as his mother got his brother out of the car. This little boy had his mother's hair, and apparently his father's got-to-go attitude. As soon as Laura set him on his feet he was off, toddling off. She grabbed his hand and lifted him into her arms. Fenton slammed the car door and followed his wife and Carson up the side walk.

"Daddy!" Nancy shouted gleefully.

She jumped off the edge of the porch and ran to her father who picked her up, "There's my girl, did you miss me?"

Nancy kissed his cheek, a big sloppy baby kiss, "Yea!"

Laura Hardy smiled, what a sweet little girl. She smiled at her and then at her little son, who at one, was already a hand full.

"Hello everybody!" Allis Drew called from the porch. Laura Hardy glanced between her and Nancy, she could see the resemblance. Allis was tall for a woman and willowy thin, she had dark blue eyes (where her daughter had Carson's bright blue eyes) and red hair. She had pale skin, a charming smile and she was really beautiful. Just like her little daughter.

"Hello!" The group called. They stepped onto the porch and Joe started to fuss…again. Laura Hardy shook her head and handed the squirming boy to her husband. She took her oldest son's hand. Frank was always good, a quite inquisitive boy. She stepped forward and stuck out her other hand, "You must be Allis, it's so nice to finally meet you!"

Allis immediately like Laura, she had a sweet smile and she seemed to be sincere, "And you must be Laura!" She stepped forward and gave the other woman a friendly hug, "And you must be…Frank, right?"

Little Frank smiled and nodded shyly, "Hi."

Joe let out a cross between a cry and a scream. Allis turned to him, "And you must be Joe!" She put her arms, "May I?"

Fenton smiled, "Of course, Allis."

She took the baby and cooed sweetly to him. He stopped fussing took in the red haired lady, never had he see a color of hair just like that. Carson laughed, "How about we step inside, I'll bet we can find something to eat."

The door was opened and everyone stepped in to the hallway, bringing with them a breath of spring air. Allis handed Joe to his mother, "I think that lunch should be ready by now, you all can head into the dining room."

Laura handed Joe to Fenton, "I'll help you." Allis smiled and lead the way to the kitchen.


A few minutes later, the dads had gotten all three kids into the dining room. Nancy insisted she should sit by the new boys, she was very curious. Joe seemed to share her curiosity; he kept reaching out to grab a handful of her hair. Frank on the other hand was a little unsure…Nancy was chatty and almost as tall as he was and…a girl. Girls have coodies when you're two. When you're one, you'll take all attention you can get.

Allis and Laura brought in the roast, rolls, salads, and fresh tomatoes in from the kitchen, setting them on the long mahogany table that already was set in china and silver. The meal itself was long and drawn out, it's harder to eat when you're trying to keep two 2 year olds and a 1 year old from getting food all over everything. But it was enjoyable, Joe and Nancy were best friends and Frank was coming around. Nancy chatted the entire time, making both Mr. and Mrs. Hardy laugh at all her two year old options and light heartedness.

"I should put these dishes in the sink," Allis said standing up.

Carson stood up as well, giving his wife a peck on the cheek, "And we have a little bit of work to do."

Fenton nodded, "It was a great meal, Allis."

"Thank you, Fenton."

Laura finished wiping the food off Joe's face and set him on the ground, "I'll help you with the dishes."

With his mother distracted for a few seconds, Joe raced off in search of something to play with. What he found was a dried up plant leaf from the flower that sat in the corner of the room. It was about half way into his little mouth when his mother caught him, "No you don't, young man! We do not eat plants!"

Joe looked between his chew toy and his mother, then he let out a loud wail. She rolled her eyes and picked him up, cooing to him, "Ohh, it's okay. Shhh, shhh."

Allis shook her head, grabbed a pile of dishes and

Frank meanwhile had gotten down from his chair, closely followed by Nancy. The elder Hardy brother too wanted something to play with, but he knew what. The bright red dump truck he had gotten from his Aunt Gertrude when she had come to visit a few weeks earlier. He scrambled over to his mother and pulled on the hem of her dress, "Mom," he whined, "Mommm!"

"Yes, sweetie?" Mrs. Hardy asked as she bounced Joe up and down in an effort to calm him down.

"I want my truck." Frank said, crossing his short arms.

Still bouncing the angry Joe, Laura said, "In a few minutes honey,"

Allis Drew reentered the dining room for the last load of dishes. The sight that greeted here was an upset Joe, an impatient Frank, and a Nancy that was sitting on her chair looking between her new friends.

"Do you need a hand?" Allis asked sympathetically.

Laura gave a grateful smile, "Thanks, but I think I'm okay."

Allis smiled, "Frank and Nancy, would you guys like to come into the kitchen with me? You can get out something to play with."

"Sure!" Nancy jumped from her seat and grabbed Frank's hand, "Come on, let's go!"

The moms smiled at the two little kids. Frank wasn't so thrilled; he pulled his hand back, "Can I have my truck?"

"You may ask Mrs. Drew to get my bag and get it for you."

"Please?" Frank cast his brown eyes on her.

She laughed, "Okay, I'll see what I can do."


It took a half an hour, but Laura Hardy finally got Joe to stop fussing. She wondered into the Drew kitchen where Allis was finishing up the dishes while Frank and Nancy played on the table in the breakfast room. Frank had his truck and was racing it up and down ramps of building blocks Nancy was playing with. They were laughing and it was one of those moments both moms wished they had a camera.

Allis turned around, "Hello, I see you found us."

Laura nodded as she set Joe on the ground, "It must be traveling that sets him off. He's not usually so fussy."

Allis nodded and the two mothers turned to watch their children.

Joe had pulled himself up on to one of the empty chairs and was gleefully trying to knock over the tower of blocks the two older kids had built.

Nancy giggled and gently pushed his hand away.

Joe giggled and tried again to knock over the block tower.

Frank pushed a few blocks toward his brother.

Joe stopped trying to knock down the tower, why bother when he could create and destroy his own?

Laura and Allis laughed, "Kids," Laura shook her head with a smile.

Allis glanced outside, "Anyone want to go to the park?"

"Park?" Nancy said looking up.

"I think we have time to go…if that's alright with our guests of course." Allis said glancing at Laura.

"Do you boys want to go to the park?"

"Yeah!" Frank said looking up from his truck.

"Yeah." Joe echoed without looking up.

"I hate to be a party pooper," Everyone turned toward the sound of Fenton Hardy, "But we really have to get going, our plane leaves at five."

"Oh, I thought it was later than that…" Laura seemingly racked her brain, "But you're right, we had to change the reservations at the last minute."

"No park?" Nancy asked dejectedly.

Laura began to pack up the boy and their toys as Allis answered, "No honey, Frank and Joe have to go home."

Carson wandered over and fondly patted his daughter's head, "I'm sure that the next time the Hardys visit you can all go to the park."

Nancy sighed, "Okay."


Fifteen minutes later, all the toys and children were packed up and everyone was in the midst of goodbye.

"You are all going to have to come and visit again soon," Allis smiled as she hugged Fenton and Laura in turn.

Carson nodded in agreement. Allis bent down and gave Frank a light hug, "It was good to meet you, Frank."

He just gave a shy little grin and scooted backwards, grabbing on to his mother's dress. Allis pick Joe up, giving him a big hug, "And I was very glad to meet you!"

Joe giggled.

Nancy stamped her foot, "I want a hug too."

Everyone laughed and Laura bent down, "I'll give you a hug." A smile lit up the little girl's as she accepted the hug.

Fenton glanced at his watch, "We really need to be going…"

Allis nodded and the group made their way to Carson's parked car, "Come again soon!"

"We will!" Laura called as she moved into the car.

The car started up and Allis and Nancy waved long after it had driven out of sight.


A few hours later, about 8:30, Allis and Carson Drew were tucking their daughter in, "Mama, are Frank and Joe going to bed too?"

Allis sat down of the bed, "I would bet they are…why do you ask?"

"I was just wondering," She pulled up her blanket and closed her little eyes, "Night-night."

Carson smile as he and Allis moved silently out of the room. Just as the door was closing, a little whisper crossed the room, "Night Frank, night Joe."


So, how did you like the first chapter? I thought it was uber fluffy and kind of cute. I like to write fluff sometimes, it's a fun and relaxing and sometimes a nice break. Please continue your feedback and feel free to give me an idea whenever you feel like it! Oh, and Mrs. Drew's name I made up, it's actually my best friend Kelsie's middle name and no matter what she says, I think cute and it's better than mine. Ugly old Anne, even Ann is prettier. Gag me.

Anyway, please review!
