"A penny for your thoughts." Susan frowned and turned her head to look at Abby.

"Oh my god," she said incuriously. "You did NOT say that." Abby laughed.

"I know," she said as she shifted the backpack on her shoulders. "But you look so pensive. And you're not really thinking about buying that are you?" She tipped her head toward the flashy red Mickey Mouse waffle iron in front of them." Susan let out a deep breath and shook her head.

"Cosmo caught Scott and I kissing," she said. Abby chuckled and shook her head.

"Is that all?" she asked.

"I mean…really…kissing, Abby," she said. "Not just a peck on the cheek kind of thing he's seen me do with other guys in his life."

"What did he say about it?" Abby asked. Susan sighed and shrugged her shoulders.

"Nothing….." she murmured. "But he has dragged the poor guy all over the place. The flying dinosaurs….insisted that he sit next to HIM on the other Dinosaur ride…..and on the trams…..and now to the Lego Store. I mean, I like Legos too. What if he's getting too attached or something? What if he's trying to break us up? Maybe it's not a good thing after all." Abby pursed her lips thoughtfully as she played with the bright red and yellow handles of the cooking implements on the counter in front of them. She held up a Mickey shaped pancake turner and Susan frowned and shook her head.

"I kind of like it," Abby grimaced playfully. "You don't think it would work in my kitchen?" Susan chuckled and shook her head. Abby checked the price tag and grimaced as she put it back.

"I don't think its anything to worry about actually," she said as they worked their way through the crowds to another section of the store. "I mean, it was just a kiss, right? Nothing…..serious?" Susan turned to look at her and laughed.

"No…" she cried. "I just met the guy…"

"Well, you DO have a thing for vacation romances," Abby stated as she shifted the shirts hanging on hangers on the rack in front of her. "You actually got married the last time it happened."

"We were drinking, Abby," Susan said as she held up a hanger with a sweatshirt hoodie. "A lot."

"And look how well that one turned out," her friend replied. Abby surveyed the character on the shirt Susan was holding in front of her.

"Feeling…Grumpy…are we?" she asked. Abby frowned and started rifling through the other shirts on the rack. "I wonder if there is a dwarf named…Envy? Ah….here's Dopey!" She grinned and held the shirt up for Susan to see. Susan frowned and then chuckled as she shoved the shirt in her hand back onto the rack. Abby's smile faded sympathetically as she studied her friend.

"Just go with it, Susan," she said quietly. "He's a nice guy. Cosmo will be fine."

"Ah…but then there are the girls," Susan sighed. "They are so not ready for this kind of thing in their lives….in spite of what Dr. Porter thinks."

"Casey loves you," Abby scoffed.

"Give her some time," Susan nodded. "She will be just like Molly. No little girl likes anyone coming between her and her daddy." Abby laughed softly.

"What?" Susan stopped as she studied another sweatshirt.

"That's the first time you have actually acknowledged that you might be….." Abby stopped as Susan nudged her. Her eyes traveled in the direction of Susan's nod and her face melted. Declan was strapped face out in the baby carrier on Luka's chest and was decked out in a baby sized Dopey hat.

"Not that," Susan murmured. "We may have another problem." Abby's eyes traveled upward to the bright green Goofy hat on her husband's head. Luka's dimples flashed between the long fuzzy ears on either side of his head.

"Oh….geez," she sighed. Susan nodded and swallowed hard as she took in the over sized blue and silver Sorcerer's hat on Scott's head. He was grinning as she closed her eyes.

"They're coming this way," she sighed. She linked her arms with Abby's and pulled her in the opposite direction. "Come on…."

"They'll make it worse if we run," Abby hissed as she planted her sandals firmly. Susan nodded and turned back to the guys reluctantly.

"Hey….." she said with a big grin as she turned back to the approaching guys.

"Like our hats?" Scott asked as he grinned and reached up to wiggle the Mickey ears.

"We thought they would add something to our staff meetings," Luka said.

"And symposium speeches…" Scott added.

"Student lectures…." Luka nodded as he glanced at Scott.

"They will definitely add…something…all right," Abby's eye brows rose.

"You didn't actually buy that, did you?" Susan asked.

"Of course, I did," Scott scoffed. "I have to have something to embarrass my daughters with." He straightened and preened a bit in front of her.

"Do you think Molly will appreciate me wearing this on the plane home?" Susan rolled her eyes and then laughed.

"You are terrible," she chuckled as she leaned toward him. "You have no idea how to handle a teenager at all."

"Which is why I need you in my life," he whispered as he wrapped his arms around her and pressed a kiss to her ear.

"You already bought the pirate hat," Abby adjusted the Dopey hat and kissed Declan's cheeks. The baby's feet kicked happily.

"That one was for you," Luka laughed as he grabbed the bare toes and held them. "This one is for work."

"Don't worry, Abby," Susan laughed. "They won't really wear them." Scott stiffened and looked up at Luka as he straightened beside him.

"I say, Dr. Kovac," he drawled in a pronounced English accent. "Did I hear a bit of challenge in that statement?"

"I think I did too," Luka grinned. They nodded at one another and then high fived with their hands.

"Oh, god…" Susan moaned as her chin dropped to her chest.

"Now, you've done it," Abby shook her head. Luka and Scott grinned.

"Come on, Mommy," Scott said as he took Susan's hand. "Cosmo, Susie and Casey are waiting for us at the Lego store. There was a way cool spaceship set I wanted to buy for your son but he said I couldn't until his mom checked it out first. Apparently, you are the Lego expert in the family." Susan nodded and grinned at Abby as he pulled her toward an exit door.

"And Henry is waiting for a table at the Rainforest Café with the rest of them," Luka sighed. "We have some major babysitting bribing to do. Porter and I want to take our girls dancing on Discovery Island tonight."

"Dancing?" Abby gasped. "But…Luka don't dance." Luka raised his dark eyebrows and shrugged.

"Luka is on vacation," he growled as he reached for her hand. "There is no telling…what….Luka might do." Abby held back as he headed toward the exit. She looked up at the tall neon green hat that made him tower over the rest of the shoppers.

"Will you take the hat off first?" she wheedled as she shifted the backpack on her shoulder. Luka thought for a moment, tugging at the ear hanging next to his cheek and then shook his head.

"Naw," he said. "It keeps the sun off my head." Abby sagged and he chuckled as he pulled her toward the door.
