A/N: I do not own Jessie

A few weeks later I had to go through an experience I hate. Daycare, on a weekend.

Jessie, Mom and dad had decided it was a good idea because I wasn't around many people my age so I must go to it.

It was about five thirty when I woke up that morning, mom and dad were home. So being the child I am, and that fact that I am a teen waking up at this ungodly hour, I go and climb into mom and dad's bed.

"Mommy." I say as I shake her arm, "Mommy wake." I say. Mom doesn't do anything so I turn to dad. "Daddy wake up." I say. He does do anything. All of the sudden I realize I have a cramp, might as well use this to my advantage since this body will start crying soon.

"Daddy I hurt." I say as I nudge him, that wakes him up.

"What?" he says as he looks over at me.

"Wake up." I say.

"That was a dirty trick Destiny." He says, "But I'm up. What time is it?" he asks me as I jump off the bed.

"I don't know." I say as I run out of their room and back to mine. Mission to wake up someone else at this hour: complete.

I quickly start grabbing different items off my clothing racks in my bedroom and put them on so I don't have to wear some girly thing anywhere.

Dad walks in, grumbling to himself about children that wake up so early it is insane. I ignore that as he helps me dress in my chosen outfit. Black leggings, a purple skirt and a grey top with pink flowers on it.

I run downstairs where Bertram is drinking coffee and prepping breakfast.

"Hi!" I say as I put my hands on the top of the counter and jump up and down as I try to pull myself onto the counter.

"Why are you so hyper." Bertram asks as he continues what he is doing. All of the sudden Jessie, who always wakes up early because of her dad being in the military, walks down and into the kitchen.

"What do you want in your lunch Dest?" she asks me as she starts on a cheese sandwich for it.

"Sugar." I say. Dad walks down as Jessie laughs.

"No sugar, I don't even know how you are hyper right now." He says as he sits down and Bertram brings him a cup of coffee.

"Fruit?" Jessie asks me.

"Sugar." I say again. I may be small, but I will win at this game. If I was still me I would have just put the sugar in the lunch, but since I am too small to even get to the counter I will have to do with begging, or screaming. Whatever works.

"No sugar Dest." Dad says, and then looks up at Jessie, "Just give her fruit or something." He says.

"Fine." I say as I think for a second, "Coffee?"

"No!" all three of them say.

"You no fun." I say as I go under the table and stick my tongue out at Jessie as she looks under.

I use to do this all the time before.

"Stop acting like Jen, Destiny." I hear dad mutter to himself. Well I am Jen so no-can-do.

"Nah." I say as I look over at the clock. Six thirty, not bad. I leave at seven thirty so one more hour.

I hear someone run down the stairs and all of the sudden Zuri appears in the kitchen.

"Why are you making a lunch Jessie? It is a weekend." She says as she sits down at the table.

"Destiny has to go to daycare." Jessie explains to her.

"I don't wanna!" I call from under the table.

"It will be fun! And we can have a tea party when you get back." Zuri says to me, "At least don't find a Stuart, that'd be bad."

"Who's Stuart?" dad asks.

"No one!" Zuri says as I crawl back out.

"Jessie." I say as I run over to her.

"Destiny" she replies in the same manner as she looks down at me. I hold up my hair brush, which I had found under the table. I blame Mr. Kipling.

"Braid?" I ask. She nods and lifts me onto one of the kitchen stools.

"You have to be nice to people today." Jessie reminds me. Like I don't know that.

"I know." I say as I jump off the stool. Mom walks down the stairs with Ravi.

"Why is everyone awake?" Ravi asks confused.

"I woke up and woke daddy up." I say. Mom laughs a bit as she gets some coffee and sits down. Jessie looks up at the clock.

"Time to go Destiny." She says. I nod and hug my parents then Zuri and Ravi. I follow Jessie to the elevator and into it.

"I don't wanna." I say when the elevator starts to move.

"It will be fun!" Jessie says as she put the bag with my stuff higher up on her shoulders. "Besides, maybe you'll make a friend." She says.

"I don't want a friend." I say stubbornly. Everyone there will be little kids with little kid minds and think little kid thoughts.

"Why not?" Jessie asks me.

"Because, I like having you, mommy, daddy, Ravi, Zuri Emma and Luke!" I say as I stomp my foot.

"I know, but if you make new friends you can have them over and play at the park together." Jessie suggests. I shake my head and pout. The elevator doors open and Jessie walks out of them with me.

"Hey Tony." She says.

"Hey Jessie, we still on for tonight?" he asks her.

"Of course." She says as we walk out of the lobby and to the cab that is sitting there waiting for us. We get into the back and Jessie gives them the name of the daycare we are going to.


"What do you guys want to do today?" Christina asks her kids as she looks at them. After Jessie had left with Destiny, Emma and Luke had come down stairs so they decided that they would do something with their kids.

"The Zoo!" Zuri says.

"Shopping!" Emma adds and Zuri nods.

"Anything but those two." Luke says and Ravi just nods along with his brother.

"How about, we go to a game or something while your mom takes the girls out?" Morgan asks the boys. Both nod.

"Yeah!" Luke says as he jumps up.

"Good plan." Christina says as she stands up with the two girls. As the four kids go upstairs to get ready Morgan looks over at his wife.

"Please don't spend all of our money." He says to her as he brings her in for a hug.

"I won't." She says, then remembers something, "What are we going to do about that Porsche?" she asks him as she leans her head against his chest.

"Keep it for Emma maybe;" Morgan says to her, "Don't you be emotional today." He adds as he pulls back to look her at, "Jen wouldn't want you being upset about her. Remember when she was little and she wouldn't stop crying and you started crying because you were scared?"

Christina smiled sadly, "she stopped crying and told me to stop being silly and crying over her." She says.

"Mom! We're ready!" Emma says as they hear two pairs of feet running down the staircase. Christina pulls away from Morgan and turns around to the girls with a smile on her face.

"Okay! What are we waiting for then?" she asks them as they walk over to the elevator. As the doors are closing those, even though she has a smile on her face, Morgan knows she is still heartbroken.


I sit at a table at the daycare, all the other kids were playing but nothing interested me, it was all too kidish.

When Jessie had brought me here I had a meltdown. I did not want to be here, kid me or teenage me.

"Hello." A little boy said. I looked over at him. He had dark brown hair that fell into his big bright blue eyes.

"Hello." I say shyly. He kind of reminds me of the old Dean. But not really.

"My name is Ryan, R-Y-A-N." He tells me with a big smile. I giggle, children are so cute.

"My name is Destiny, D-E-S-T-I-N-Y." I say. His smile goes wider.

"Nobody else knows how to spell their name!" he says in astonishment. I nod.

"I know." I say as I look down at my hands.

"Want to be friends?" he asks me. I shrug.

"Sure." I say as I look over at blocks nobody is playing with, "Want to play with the blocks?" I ask. He nods and we walk over together
