4 DAYS LATER AUGUST 10 2022

"Babe, Ready to go home?" Spencer asked as I slowly woke up.

"No, can we stay longer? Wait no, can we stay forever?"

"Ha, I wish. But we have kids to get home to…"

"I totally forgot we have kids." I said joking.

"What a good mother you are, forgetting about your kids."

"I mean we did have a good time acting like we have none." I said as I laid my head on is bare chest.

"Right, we did." He said putting his arm around me.

After a six hour flight we landed back in Los Angeles. When we got off the plane, we got our luggage and got back in our car and drove straight home. Oh, home… Why do we have to be back so soon? When we got to our house, I sat in the car, staring at the house not wanting to go in.

"Do we really have to be home Spence?" I said in a disappointed tone looking over at Spence who is in the driver's seat.

"Yes, now let's go in and see our children."

"Ah, okay." I said as I got out. I grabbed my suite case and Spencer grabbed his and we walked in.

"We're back." We both yelled as we entered.

"Mommy, Daddy!" Luke came running in to see us.

"Hey Sweetie." I said as I picked up my son.

"Missed us?" Spencer asked.

"Yes!"

"Well we missed you too." We both said smiling.

"Hey Sis. How was your guy's trip?" PJ said as he walked in to welcome us.

"It was good, real good. I would say it was too good because I wish we didn't have to come back this soon."

"Well that's good."

"Where's our daughter?" Spencer asked.

"She is up in her room probably still sleeping."

"It's already noon. How late have you been letting her stay up?" Spencer asked.

"I don't know… Not that late."

"Alright, well everything looks like how it was when we left. So you did good." I said as I was referring when he was younger.

"Well, I'm not the same guy I was seven years ago… as in losing kids, wrecking couches, bringing home the wrong kid…."

"Well since everything is good, we are going to go up and get situated." I said as Spence and I walked up.

"Babe, can you believe we used so many condoms on our trip." Spencer said as he took his half empty box of condoms our of his suit case.

"Nope." I said as I walked over to him giving him a short kiss. "I'm not at all surprised."

"Daddy, what are those in your hands." Luke said walking in to our room.

"Umm… Well" Spencer said trying to figure out what to say besides what they actually are.

I could tell he didn't know what to say. He was looking over at me to save him, but I remember all those times he made me answer to Heather, so now it is his turn.

"These are bandages for your toes. Yeah, that's what they are… You see, when you cut your big toe, you put it on to stop the bleeding like a regular bandage except your toe goes inside."

I couldn't help but laugh what he said that. Like seriously? That was the best he could come up with.

"Ohhhhhhhh!"

"Luke, how about you go play with your cousin Dylan while we unpack." I said as I showed my son the door.

"Kay Mommy."

"Nice save Spencer, bandages for your toe." I said shaking my head at him.

"You know, you could have been nice and intervened helping me."

"Na, I was not because I remember all those time when I had to answer to Heaths when she was younger."

"How about we lock the door this time…" Spencer said as he walked over to the door.

Right when we locked the door, like ten minutes later, Heather came banging on it to let her in.

"Mom, Dad open up!" She yelled banging on the door.

"Welcome Back Hun." Spencer said softly smiling looking down at me.

"Ha, I know. Heather go away and leave us alone." I yelled back.

"DAD, MOM!"

"Whatever you want go ask PJ. We are still on vacation!" Spencer yelled back.

"We better go answer it. She won't stop…" I said as I got off our bed. "What Heaths?" I said as I opened the door.

"Well, nice to see you too MOM." She said sarcastically.

"What did you want?" I said as I laid back in bed next to Spencer.

"I wanted to ask you if…."

"Whatever you wanted, it's a yes, now go away." Spencer said interrupting her before she could finish.

"But you didn't know what I was going to ask…"

"Fine it's a no… now leave"

"You know what Dad; I will take your first answer." She sad leaving.

"Good parenting skills Spencer." I said as she left. "I still see you haven't learned to let people finish their sentences." I said rolling my eyes.

"And I can still see you haven't learned to stop being so sexy." He said with a smirk on his face leaning over to kiss me.

"Hey Mom I still need… Eww! What are you guys doing?" Heather said walking back in.

"What do you need?" I asked as we stop kissing.

"I was going to say… Oh yeah! I was going to say I need a ride."

"To where?"

"To Emmy's house… Her mom was going to take us to see a movie."

"Ask PJ or Sky to drive you. We are not in the mood to be parents right now."

"Ugh. Fine. PJ…!" She said leaving.

"You know Spence, one day I can see us traumatizing her, I mean only if we haven't yet."

"I think we already have… So our job as parents is done." He said joking.

"It's never done until we embarrass her enough, which I would say we haven't done yet. I remember my mom embarrassed me way too much."

"Shoot, she embarrasses me now. Like when she tries get on stage with me to steal the show. I think I can finally say after fifteen years, your mom likes me."

I chuckled because I knew he was right. My mom finally did like him, but it's only because of what he does. She finally has her chance at stardom.


"So when are you guys flying back home to Denver?" I asked Sky who was sitting in the living room.

"I think we are flying back Friday."

"So were my kids good for you and PJ?"

"Oh yeah, they were fine. So what did you guys do on your trip?"

"Umm… We mainly just hung out on the beach and went shopping and just relax."

"And had sex?" She said softly so the kids wouldn't hear.

"SKY! Why are you trying to get all the dirty details?"

"I'm guessing from that tone, you had lots of it." She said smiling.

"I'm not denying or admitting to anything."

"I'm back." I heard Heather say as she walked into the living room. "You not denying or admitting what mom?"

"Oh nothing, nothing. How was the movie you saw?"

"Good. Is dinner ready? I'm starving."

"Not yet, your dad is cooking it right now as we speak."

"Dad is cooking? Since when does he cook? I bet the food is going to be nasty."

"Since always… He always used to cook when you were younger. I just guess you don't remember it."

"Why can't PJ or you cook?"

"Because your dad is."

"I'm not eating it if it is nasty then."

"Sweetie, you don't know what nasty is. I had to grow up eating my mom's cooking. Now that food … I don't even know how to describe it."

"Oh your mom's cooking was the worse. I wouldn't even feed it to my worse enemy I still have those dreams." Sky said.

"I know me too…"

"It was really that bad?"

"Yep, you are going to be eating that food if you like or not. Now go get up to your room."

"Fine…" She said leaving.

"You are just going to love your kids when they are this age…" I said sarcastically.

"Ha, I bet I will…"
