"Liz are you sure this is a good idea?" Casey asked warily looking at all the people.

Liz followed Casey's glance before setting on the kids a few steps in front of them. "They're having a great time. Even Prue seems to be less worried then she was before."

Casey nodded in agreement. "Still I've never done anything like this before."

"Just relax and have fun like everyone else. I will let you pick where we eat lunch at."

Casey smiled and grabbed Liz's hand; before, joining the kids.

"That was amazing!" Kristin exclaimed as they stepped into a small cafe, not far from the park they were going to after lunch.

"I am glad you had fun," Liz said waving Alex and Olivia over to their table.

While Liz and Casey had taken the kids for the day Alex had went to talk to Branch about returning to the DA's office and Olivia had went to talk to the Captain about using a few of her vacation days. Liz had suggested that when they finished what they were doing they should join them for the rest of the day. Eri moved and allowed Alex to sit down then herself leaving Olivia to sit on her other side.

"Look what I got!" Eri said excitedly showing them her pink 'Love is Love' bracelet.

"Wow and this is only your first year going," Alex pointed out causing Eri to bubble with even more excitement.

Olivia noticed Prue wasn't paying attention instead she was looking out the window. "Did you at least have a little fun?"

Prue turned to face Olivia. "I never knew there were so many people. I also did not know that everyone would be so kind and friendly. I guess there is still a lot of things I do not know," Prue replied.

Olivia smiled warmly as she spoke, "Prue we never finish learning, there's always more to know. By your reply I assume that was a yes to haveing fun?"

Prue nodded and answered, "Yes." Almost like she had forgot and happened to remember something her face lit up with a smile as she filled Olivia in on more of her day, "I made a few friends too. This one kid I did not even know went to my school is so cool. They do not mind my spitting random facts out and my obsession with profiling. I told them we were going to the park after lunch and they are going to ask if they can too so we can hang out more."

"I'm glad you made a friend," Olivia told her.

Alex leaned back so she could make eye contact with Prue, "Me too. I can't wait to meet them."

The group fell into a short lived silence. "Hey Billy."

Billy looked up when she heard her name. "Oh hi Terry."

Terry stuck his hands in his pockets avoiding eye contract with everyone else at the table. "So... what you up to?"

Billy rolled her eyes since it was kind of obvious what she was doing. "Fighting dragons. And you?"

Terry chuckled. "Saving the princess."

Billy blushed. "It was good seeing you."

"You too," Terry said as he walked off.

There was a pause that Alexa interrupted. "Billy's got a boyfriend. Billy's got a boyfriend," she sung.

Billy turned and gave her best death glare. Then in a hushed tone she spoke, "Remember I know where you sleep."

Alexa shut up and returned to her lunch.


Soon as they reached the park a teenager ran up to them. They were just a bit shorter than Prue and had chopped blue hair. "Hey Prue. My mom said we could stay till two because my sister has soccer practice at three."

Prue smiled as she did introductions, "Mom, Alex, this is my friend Sky. Sky this is mom, Olivia, and her girlfriend, Alex."

Sky grinned. "Nice to meet you." Sky then turned to Prue. "Come on Nicky and Lucky want to play tag."

"One sec," Prue replied as she walked over to Eri, " You want to come play tag with us."

Eri nodded excitedly.

"It's good to see she's making more friends," Casey directed torwards Olivia, "Now if Billy would make a few more friends."

Casey was interrupted by someone tugging on her hand. "Swings?" Reid asked.

"Come on little red," Casey replied taking Reid's hand.

Liz was sitting on a bench near the playground in the park. She took in the definitions of love and family all around her. Alex and Olivia were walking around the pond talking about the past, time lost, present, and how to make the most of the future. Tyler and Frankie had joined the game of tag not long ago. Terry, who had oddly enough also showed up at the park, had brought out Billy's inner small child as he pushed her on the swings as she gave a five star smile. Kristin and Alexa were quite literally kissing in a tree, but nothing beyond feather kisses or Liz would have interrupted them. Last Liz took in Casey and Reid. Casey was chasing a giggling Reid around the playground.

"Mommy come play!" Reid shouted as she came to a stop.

Casey took the opportunity to pick Reid up and spin her around causing a high pitched squeal to be heard. Liz's smile grew as she joined them. Casey set Reid down, "Run before she gets us."

Liz shook her head and decided that she liked their idea of family.
