Emily got bored of coloring with Penelope on the floor, so she got up and went over to her aunt and asked her, "Aunt Jess, would it be okay if I got on the computer? Dad said no tv but didn't say we couldn't get on the computer."

Jessica looked up at her niece and answered, "Why don't you call your dad and ask just to make sure it's alright."

"Okay!" Emily replied as she went into the kitchen to get the phone off the hook. She dialed her dads number and waited for him to pick up.

"Hello?" Aaron answered on the second ring.

"Hi daddy! I was wondering, would it be okay if I got on the computer and play some games?" Emily asked her father.

"I don't care, but no fighting over the computer, and you can be on it for forty-five minutes no longer," Aaron told her.

"Okay, thanks daddy!" Emily said before she hung up with her dad.

Emily stuck the phone back on the hook and went and told her aunt that her dad said she could be on the computer, but only for forty-five minutes. Upon hearing Emily relay the information to her aunt, Derek tried to get up and get to the computer before Emily could.

"Derek!" Emily yelled frustratingly, as she seen him race to the computer.

"What?" Derek replied, feigning innocence.

Getting upset at her brother, Emily replied, "Gosh doggit Derek James Hotchner! You knew I was going to be on there! I called dad up first! I get the computer first!"

Before the kids could end up in a punch fest, Jessica got up and went to her niece and nephew to break it up. "Alright, Derek, Emily, that's enough, you're going to wake up the twins if you don't knock it off." Jessica warned, finally getting the kids separated and continued,

"Now Derek, Emily gets to use the computer she called up your dad and asked first, you didn't show any interest in getting on the computer until Emily called and asked. You can go find something else to do."

Before Derek walked off, he shoved Emily as he walked by her, and went into the kitchen. Emily looked at her brother as he walked off and turned back around and said to her aunt "Thanks Aunt Jess."

"No problem, you two kids need to cool it, I'm going to go up and check on the twins make sure their still asleep, please, no more fighting, or I'm going to have to tell your dad."

"Alright," Emily started, then said more to herself, "But he started it.

Not giving into the young girl, Jessica walked away and headed towards the stairs, passing Derek as he walked back into the living room. Derek walked over to his sister and held out the lighter he got out from the kitchen drawer, then he went back into the living room, and walked up behind Emily and flicked the lighter on and held it up to the back of his sister's head, and said, "Whatever you do, do not turn around."

Not knowing what her brother was doing, she turned around as she asked, "What? Why?"

"Emily! I said don't turn around! Your hair is on fire!" Derek exclaimed as he picked up the nearest blanket to put the fire out of Emily's hair.

"Oh my gosh, Derek!" Emily said as she started to freak out and reached towards the back of her head.

"I told you not to turn around! Why didn't you listen to me?!" Derek told her exasperatedly as he made sure it was put out.

As all the commotion was going on, Jessica was heading back down the stairs when she heard the two oldest, "What on earth is going on now?"

Derek looked over at Emily and said, "Don't Emily, don't tell her."

Emily ignored her brother and proceeded to tell her aunt what had just happened. "Derek came in here with a lighter, flicked it on, and lit my hair on fire!"

"Derek James! What did I tell you just a moment ago? Leave your sister alone, you can march your butt upstairs right now, and you can stay there until your father gets home," Jessica told him harshly as she pointed a finger towards the upstairs.

"It was an accident, I'm sorry," Derek replied as he laid the lighter on the coffee table before going up the stairs to his room.

Derek went on up to his room, and Jessica took at a look at Emily's hair to assess the damage. "Doesn't look too bad, can't really tell."

"I hope not, he's got another thing coming," Emily said, thinking of ways to get back at her brother for setting her hair on fire.

Penelope came up to her sister and aunt a few minutes later, "Are you okay Em?"

Emily nodded her head while saying, "I'm fine Penn, Derek is just a butthead."

Jessica turned back to face her niece and said, "Hey now, no name calling."

"Sorry," Emily replied, then when her aunt was out of ear shot, Emily faced her sister and said, "Want to help me get Derek back?"

Penelope just looked at her older sister, unsure, and replied, "Are we going to get in trouble?"

"No, if we get caught I'll take the blame, Derek is going to pay for what he did," Emily told her as she came up with a plan, then turned back towards the computer to play her game before her time was out.

"Okay, I'll help," Penelope told her older sister, then she went back to the coffee table where her coloring book and crayons are and resumed coloring.

About a couple hours later, after the twins woke up, everyone, minus Derek, was watching a movie, The Incredibles, which they all agreed on, it was nearing the end of the movie when Aaron came home, when he walked in, Jessica got up off the couch, and went to help her brother in law out.

"Oh, thanks Jess, how were the kids?" Aaron asked her.

"Twins just got up about forty-five minutes ago, Derek is up in his room, I sent him there and the two older girls were fine, although there was a bit of a mishap while you were gone." Jessica told him as she helped him unload the groceries.

Giving a sigh, Aaron dreadfully asked, "What happened this time?"

So, Jessica went into details about how Derek lit Emily's hair on fire but was able to get it out before anything serious could happen, and how Derek was trying to be rude to Emily for trying to get on the computer before her. As she finished up telling him everything that had gone on, Aaron called Emily into the kitchen to assess her hair before calling Derek down.

Emily walked in saying, "Yeah?"

"Come here for a second, I want to see how badly your hair is before I call your brother down," Aaron answered her as he looked.

Seeing there wasn't too much damage, not even telling that her hair had caught fire. "Alright, you can go back, your hair isn't as bad as I thought it was."

A moment later, Aaron called Derek down stairs in the kitchen, and waited for him to come back down. Aaron looked over at his sister-in-law, and said, "I apologize for their behavior, they know better to do this, especially Derek."

"It's alright, nothing serious happened," Jessica replied to him as she walked out just as Derek walked into the kitchen, giving them some privacy.

"What on earth were you thinking?!" Aaron asked his son, as he raised his voice.

"I'm sorry dad, it was an accident," Derek told him, as he bent his head down.

Aaron sighed, and said, "Look at me, you are grounded for a week. No tv, no computer, no friends and no phone, do I make myself clear?"

"Yes sir," Derek answered, keeping eye contact with his dad.

"You're also going to apologize to your sister, and you're going to have chores to keep you busy for the next week, starting with dinner dishes tonight, and your room is to be spotless, and you are to clean the living room, and you are going to help out with the twins. Do I make myself clear?" Aaron explained to him, and then added, "Oh and you're going to write me a three-page paper about why it's dangerous to play with fire, especially why it's dangerous to light someone's hair on fire, you have two days to work on it, I suggest you get busy."

"Yes sir," Derek acknowledged, then he left the kitchen and went back up to his room.

Making sure his son was upstairs, Aaron went into the living room, to check on his other kids, JJ and Spencer seen their dad and ran over to him to give him hugs, and while giving her daddy a hug, JJ said, "Daddy, I sorwy for not behaving this morning."

"It's alright, I forgive you, thank you for apologizing, I love you," Aaron replied to his daughter as he went to put her down.

"I yuv you too daddy," JJ replied as she went to sit back down to color with Penelope and Spencer.

Aaron looked over at Jessica and asked her to follow him into the kitchen so he could talk to her without little ears listening in. Once they were in the kitchen, Aaron asked, "Just know, you don't have too, it's completely up to you, but Dave called me earlier while I was running errands, and he wants to go out for guys night tomorrow, I'm sure Erin can watch the kids if you have other plans."

"That's totally fine with me, I don't mind Aaron, their good kids, minus the fights here and there," Jessica replied with a smirk.

"Alright good, Dave wants to try and see if he can find someone for me, I don't think it's the right time, but he thinks otherwise." Aaron explained. While they were talking, they didn't see Emily listening in on the conversation, and she stepped in and asked with unshed tears,

"Daddy, are you dating now? What about mommy? Are you replacing mommy?"

Aaron gave a sigh and pulled his daughter with him as he sat down in the chair to be eye level with her, "No sweetheart, I'm not dating, but I might, we'll cross that bridge when we get there. And no, I'm not replacing mommy, mommy will never be replaced, she will always be your mommy, and the others too."

"I don't want anyone new to come in our lives, what if she gets rid of everything that was mommy's? She would want to replace mommy, you can't date daddy!" Emily told her dad as she shed some tears.

"Baby girl, that's not going to happen, I promise, I'm not going to let anyone into our lives that wants to replace mommy. I'm not going to let that happen. I'm not even dating yet, I'm just going out with uncle Dave tomorrow night for guys night, that's all, I promise." Aaron explained to his daughter, as he wiped the tears off her face.

Giving a couple sniffles, Emily said, "Okay." Then she gave another thought and asked, "Can we go see mommy tomorrow? It's been awhile, and I miss her."

"Of course we can, as long as it doesn't rain, we'll go see mommy." Aaron answered his daughter, then he pulled her in for a hug. "Now go dry those tears up, and don't mention anything to the little ones please, not until it happens."

"Okay, I love you daddy," Emily told her dad as she dried her tears off with the back of her hands.

"I love you too baby girl," Aaron replied as he watched her go back into the living room, then he faced Jessica and said, "Emily and Penelope are the two I'm going to worry about when it's time for me to date."

"Well if that wasn't heartbreaking or anything," Jessica said, then replied, "I'm sure they'll be fine, but yes I do agree, especially with Penelope, she's a total sweetheart and gets attached to people easily."

"Yes she does, that's for sure. Well, like I told Emily, we will cross that bridge when we get there, for now it's just guys night tomorrow," Aaron told her as he stood up, then said, "Would you like to stay for dinner? That is if you don't have any plans tonight."

"That's fine with me, I'd love too," Jessica told him

"Alright, I'll go ahead and get dinner started," Aaron told her as he got some food out for dinner.

"I can do that for you, if you want to go spend some time with your kids," Jessica told him as she stepped up to take over for Aaron.

"Are you sure? I don't mind, they are my kids, I don't want you to feel like you have to cook them anything," Aaron asked, double checking with her.

Shaking her head yes, Jessica replied, "Yes, I'm sure, I don't mind."

With that, Aaron let her take over and headed into the living room to see what his kids were up too. "Hey you guys, what are you doing?"

"We're playing go fish," Penelope answered.

"Yeah daddy! We paying go fish!" Spencer piped up.

"I can see that, whose winning?" Aaron replied with some enthusiasm.

"Emmy is," JJ answered.

"I'll let you guys continue, aunt Jessica is fixing dinner," Aaron told them.

"Is she staying for dinner?" Emily asked him as she withdrew a card from the go fish pile.

"Yes she is," Aaron replied to Emily.

Aaron walked away, making sure he didn't step on any little fingers, then walked over to the couch to turn the news on.

Twenty minutes later, Jessica walks into the living room to let everyone know that dinner was ready, Aaron stood up, and looked down at Penelope and asked, "Penn, sweetheart, can you go get your brother? It's time for dinner."

"Okay," Penelope replied as she got up and headed up the stairs to get her older brother.

Aaron helped Jessica get the kids fix their plates. Making sure all the kids washed their hands, they all sat down and started eating, they all talked about their day, minus the incident with Derek and Emily. Aaron told the kids that they'll all be going out to go see their mom, since it's been awhile, and that their aunt Jessica was going to be watching them again tomorrow night while Aaron went out with their uncle Dave. After dinner they agreed to watch a family movie and Aaron had everyone get ready for bed before they started their movie.

"Daddy, can we watch the Flinstones?" Penelope asked her dad, getting comfortable on the couch with her blanket.

"Anyone against it?" Aaron asked the other kids.

Getting no's from everyone, Aaron turned the Netflix on and looked for The Flinstones under kids, and hit play, everyone had settled in to watch the movie, find their comfortable spot either on the couch or on the floor. Jessica had already taken off for the night after dinner, letting the kids spend time with their dad.

An hour and a half after the movie, Aaron told the kids to head on up to bed and that he would be up there to say goodnight to them after taking the twins, who had fallen asleep during the movie, up to their room.

Meanwhile in Emily and Penelope's room…

"Alright, after dad comes in to say goodnight, that's when we put our plan to action," Emily told her sister.

"What plan is that again?" Penelope asked her sister, going over to sit next to her on the bed.

Emily sat up to give her sister some room on the bed and said, "I have this wash cloth, along with some soap, from the bathroom, and toothpaste, and lotion. We are going to put them all on this washcloth," Emily told her as she showed her the washcloth she had under the blanket, and continued, "And we are going to sneak into Derek's room, put the washcloth on his pillow as close to his face as possible, then we'll put everything on it, and wait until morning to see what happens."

"I'm not so sure about this Em'," Penelope told her, feeling unsure of herself about this plan her sister came up with.

"It'll be fine, and I'll take the blame, dad won't know you were a part of this," Emily told her with a smirk on her face, thinking of this brilliant plan she thought of.

"All right, what if he's still up?" Penelope asked.

Emily faced her sister and said, "Then we wait till he is absolutely positively out like a light."

A few minutes later, Aaron came into the room to give the girls a good night hug and tucked them in, shutting the light off, he left the room, oblivious to what the girls are up too. They both waited a good hour to make sure Derek was asleep, they got up quietly, and with the supplies in each of their hands, they crept up to Derek's room, Emily set her stuff down and slowly cracked open Derek's room, and seeing him asleep, Emily faced her sister and gave a "shh" motion, they slowly walked in after Emily picked her stuff back up into her hands. They walked over to Derek's bed, and Emily quietly motion to Penelope to put everything down on the floor, and she got to work, putting the lotion, the soap, and the toothpaste, and got quite a bit of globs from each container and slowly picked up the washcloth and placed it as close as she could get to Derek's face on his pillow.

Looking at her work, Emily picked up the supplies, and both her and Penelope, quietly tip toed out of their brother's room, Emily took the toothpaste and the soap back to the bathroom, and had Penelope take the lotion back to their room. Making her way back to their room, Emily closed the door and quietly let out an evil laugh while rubbing her hands together saying,

"Now we wait till morning."

A/N: I hope you enjoyed this chapter! The events that happened in this chapter is all true events, the lighting the hair on fire, really did happen by my brother, and for whatever reason, came up behind me and lit my hair on fire, just like what happened with Derek and Emily. The other event towards the end of the chapter with Emily putting the lotion, toothpaste, and the soap on the washcloth, also did happen, my cousin and I both did that to my brother, for whatever reason, and both those events happened at separate moments in my life, lol.

Thanks for reading, and like always please leave a review!
