Whilst Alex and her little family were at her mother's favorite spot, the rest of the gang were back at Alex and Piper's old apartment getting ready to surprise Alex with a welcome home party. Piper had arranged it. Jack made the invites and had given them out. Nicky and Lorna were the main organizers and the most excited to see Alex. It's been four long months since they last saw the brunette. They wondered how she would react to this party; they were both excited to see Jack as well. Lorna had a really big soft spot for Jack.
Piper walked hand in hand with Alex back to the car. Alex had jack on her shoulders. "So where now?" Alex asked. "We're heading home" Smiled Piper. "Where's home?" Alex asked with a weak smile. "Our old apartment I found the keys at Dianne's house, I thought it would be too soon to move to her house, your aunt said we could if you wanted too" Piper replied. "I can't wait to show you my room mama!" yelled Jack since he felt left out of the conversation between his mommies. "Yea! Sounds great buddy" smiled Alex. Piper texted Nicky saying they would be home in 5 minutes.
"OKAY EVERYONE ALEX WILL BE HERE IN 5 MINUTES, EVERYONE GET TO THEIR STATIONS!" Nicky yelled to everyone. Lorna giggled at Nicky's excitement. "What? Piper sent in Caps So I had to yell it! "Nicky laughed. Looking out of the window" They,'re Here!' yelled Nicky. Everyone got into his or her places. Lights were off. Jack held his mama's hand as they walked to the door. Lorna saw the cute moment through the window. Piper handed Alex the key. As Alex opened the and... "SUPRISE!" yelled everyone. Alex jumped a little then she laughed. "Well hello everyone". Nicky wrapped arms around her shoulders "Hey Vause good to see you". Smiled Nicky. "Nickkkkkyyyy!" Yelled Jack who loved Nicky to bits, Nicky was his best friend and had taken to her, and Nicky loved him just as much if not more. "Jacky boy!" Nicky yelled whilst picking him up swinging him around. "Did you miss me and your auntie Lorna?" smiled Nicky to the giggling boy. "Yes! I love you Nicky, and I love you Lorna" smiled the polite boy. Alex smiled at her little family.
A few hours later and only the main crew was still around. Nicky, Lorna, Red, Piper and Jack, the only people Alex really needed. Jack was talking to Red. "So why do they call you red?" he asked so innocently. Piper and Alex were out on the balcony. "I don't really know to be honest, maybe it was my love for red hair?" Red smiled whilst looking up at Nicky. "Yeah kiddo, she used to always get red from the confectionary "Nicky replied. "I like it, you always look beautiful Red" Smiled Jack. Red smiled back, Jack had Alex's charms. "You're so much like your mama, Jack will all the smooth moves," laughed Nicky. Lorna cuddled into Nicky as Jack continued to ask questions about their prison days. They made sure not to get too gross but told all about the great adventures they had.
Meanwhile on the balcony. Alex was lost in thought smiling to herself. "What? You smiling about? "Questioned Piper. " .My life "smiled Alex. "Yeah, it's good to have you home" Piper says whilst wrapping her arms around Alex. Alex overhears Jack asking Nicky all about how they met. "He's some kid," Alex whispered. Piper looked behind her to see Jack talking to Red and seeming really happy. "Yeah, he's just liked you". "Nah, he's just like her" smiled Alex. "He's like my mother".
"It's time for bed sweetheart" Whispered Piper soothingly. "Okay mommy! "Jack replied. Jack hugged everyone and kissed both his aunties goodnight. Did his nighttime ritual and went to his bed. Jack wasn't sure if he would get a story tonight or not. "Alex. You should go read him a story". Piper said pointing to the door. Everyone had gone home and Piper was making a come tea for themselves. Alex walked into Jack's room to see him talking to someone. No one was there but he seemed to be having a conversation. So as not to disturb him she watched from the doorway.
Jack: Hello Again
Dianne: Has no one come to read to you yet dear?
Jack: No but it's okay, Mama just got back from Prison I don't want to be a brat.
Dianne: I know dear I saw you at my chair at my favorite spot.
Jack: Did you like it? Mama loved it.
Dianne: Yes I loved it.
Jack: That's great. I wish I could have met you.
Dianne: I feel the same way Jack, Her smile faded.
Jack: You have to go?
Dianne: Yes, but I'll be back when I can :)
Jack looked over and saw Alex in the doorway. "Hello Mama, shouldn't you be with mommy? "Jack said with a 1/2 smile. "Yes, but I wanted to cuddle with my boy and tell him a story" smiled Alex. "Who were you talking too? "Alex questioned. "Oh...I was talking to Dianne, she's my Imaginary friend, that's what mommy said" as jack looked up at Alex. Alex got into bed with Jack and held him close reading his favorite book. It had been 45mins since Piper last saw Alex. Walking into Jacks room she sees a Sleeping Alex cuddling up to a sleeping jack. Piper kisses both their cheeks and walked back to her bedroom. A few minutes later a sleepy Alex crawls into bed. Piper wraps her arms finally around Alex and they fall asleep peacefully.
