Reba awoke to noise she heard coming from the kitchen. She listened to her family talking over what seemed like dinner. She got up and walked over to her purse to find her phone. She looked at what read '6:45 p.m.' on the lighted screen. Wow! I've been here since 12!

Following the noise into the kitchen and saw her family, happily eating and laughing together. "Mom! Look what I made!" Jake ran over to her with a piece of paper. As Reba squatted down to see what he was handing her she realized it was a drawling. It showed Brock, Reba, Cheyenne, Kyra, Van, and himself together as a family in front of a house. "It's us, and Dad's house," he smiled, showing her how proud he was of his masterpiece. Well, at least I know Jake would be okay with Brock and I getting back together. She thought.

"That's beautiful Jake! Nice Job! How about you got put it on the fridge?" She enthusiastically suggested.

"Alright!" He said, still with that huge, cute smile painted across his face.

As Jake ran for the refrigerator Reba got back up and walked over to Brock, "Hey, I've got to get going."

"No, no stay. Here, help yourself," he said handing her a plate.

"Okay, but after this, I'm leaving," she firmly told him.

"That's fine." They all started eating, and Brock started the dinner conversation, "So how was your nap?" He turned the attention onto Reba.

"Fine. I can't believe that I slept that long!"

"Yeah, Jake wanted to check to make sure you were still breathing," Kyra joked.

Everyone let out a little laugh, and continued eating. "So has anyone talked to Cheyenne and Van lately?" Reba asked.

"I did. Everything is going fine, and Cheyenne is feeling better. I was told to tell you that Jack misses you, Mom," she relayed the message. She looked at her mother to see what her reaction would be. Reba just looked down at her food, messing with it, but not eating it. She knew that hearing about Jack would get a little reaction out of her mother. If all things went as Kyra had planned, enough talk about her mother's husband would lead her back home. Little did she know now, how wrong she was.

After dinner all the kids gathered around in the living room to play 'Life'. They convinced Reba to play with them, and they sat and played for about an hour. Sitting there they seemed like a happy family. They all joked and laughed the whole game. Reba and Brock were getting along better than ever, and the kids enjoyed being able to all together again, even Kyra. She knew that she should be unhappy that her parents were enjoying each other's company, but she wasn't. She was too happy that they were like a big, normal, happy family again.

"OH!" everyone yelled at Brock once he finally lost most of his money. He had been beating everyone for a while now.

"Finally!" Jake exclaimed.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah. Alright, you win. I'm done. It's getting late. Time for bed," he notified the kids.

"Aww, do we have to?" Jake whined.

"Yes, now get!"

Reba put the pieces and the board game back into the box and slid it under the coffee table, with the rest of the games. She grabbed her purse, and then walked over to the door, "Bye Brock."

"You could stay here if you'd like," He offered.

"No, I've stayed long enough. Thank you very much for letting me stay for as long as I did."

"Alright, I guess I have no reason to keep you here," Brock admitted to defeat.

"So are you coming back tomorrow?" He hopefully asked.

"No, Brock, it's your week with the kids. You hardly ever get to see them."

"But it's even rarer of an occasion that I get to see you," he said wrapping his arm around her, then kissing her.

They stood there, in the doorway, kissing for a while, until someone walked up behind them. They didn't realize anyone was there until the person said something. "Brock! What are you doing?!" someone yelled.

He looked up to see his wife, "Barbra Jean?"

Reba, a little shocked, turned around to face her.

"Reba?" Barbra Jean asked, in a sickened but surprised tone. "What are you doing here?"

"I was just about to ask you that same question."

"I got an earlier flight back to surprise Brock and see the kids. I guess surprise is on me. Now why are you here?" She asked again.

"Cheyenne couldn't bring the kids, so I did."

"Well what are you doing here?" She meant her and Brock's house.

"Oh, well I came to drop off the kids, but I didn't feel too great, and Brock let me sleep on the couch for a while. Then I stayed for dinner, and before I knew it I was playing a bored game and…," she trailed off. "Why does that really matter?"

"I think it started mattering when you were kissing my husband. What were you thinking?!"

"Barbra Jean, please, it was nothing." Brock tried to say.

"Well it didn't look like nothing, Brock! How long has this been going on?" She started to ask, a little on the panicked side.

"Not that long. Barbra Jean, really it was nothing. We just kissed," he lied. He stared into Barbra Jean's eyes for a moment, and then he realized that there was nothing there for him. He didn't really love her. He was really in love with Reba, and there was nothing stopping him from leaving with her right now. He knew that if he said something now, she would kick Brock out, and then the kids would all know. That is something he couldn't risk right now.

Barbra Jean knew, just by looking at him, that he was lying. "Do you love her Brock?"

"Whoa! Barbara Jean, common now," Reba slightly begged her. She knew that Brock was always unpredictable, it was one of the things she loved most about him, and she didn't know if he was going to say something stupid. She couldn't risk it.

"Do you love him, Reba?" She switched her gaze to her.

"Well, Barbra Jean, that's a horrible question to ask someone, of course I love him. I was married to him for 20 years! But I'm married now, and I'm pregnant. Things are different," she told her. "Now, I should really get going," she said to Brock. Then she turned to Barbra Jean and said, "Please, don't say anything about this to the kids." Barbra Jean nodded, but didn't look at her.

The whole ride home, Reba felt so embarrassed. She knew the situation she was putting herself in, but she never wanted Brock to go down with her. A tear escaped her face, and she whipped it away with one hand. She turned her head to her right before she turned, and the last thing she saw was two bright headlights headed straight at her, and then everything went black…


Oh oh oh
No matter what you say about love
I keep comming back for more
Keep my hand in the fire
Sooner or later I get what I'm asking for

No matter what you say about life
I learn every time I bleed
The truth is a stranger
Soul is in danger I gotta let my spirit be free
To admit that I'm wrong and then change my mind
Sorry but I have to move on and leave you behind

I can't waste time so give it a moment
I realized nothings broken
No need to worry about everything I've done
Live every second like it was my last one
Don't look back got a new direction
I loved you once needed protection
You're still a part of everything I do
You're on my heart just like a tattoo
Just like a tattoo
I'll always have you
(I'll always have you)

Sick of playing all of these games
It's not about taking sides
When I looked in the mirror didn't deliver
It hurt enough to think that I could stop
Admit that I'm wrong and then change my mind
Sorry but I've gotta be strong and leave you behind

I can't waste time so give it a moment
I realize nothings broken
No need to worry about everything I've done
Live every second like it was my last one
Don't look back got a new direction
I loved you once needed protection
You're still a part of everything I do
You're on my heart just like a tattoo
Just like a tattoo
I'll always have you
(I'll always have you)

If I live every moment
Won't change any moment
Still a part of me in you
I will never regret you
Still the memory of you
Marks everything I do
.. oh

I can't waste time so give it a moment
I realize nothings broken yeah
No need to worry about everything I've done
Live every second like it was my last one
Don't look back got a new direction .. don't look back
I loved you once needed protection .. no, no
You're still a part of everything I do
You're on my heart just like a tattoo

I can't waste time so give it a moment .. I can't waste time
I realized nothings broken
No need to worry about everything I've done .. no need to worry
Live every second like it was my last one
Don't look back got a new direction .. don't you ever look back
I loved you once needed protection
You're still a part of everything I do
You're on my heart just like a tattoo
Just like a tattoo I'll always have you.
