Chapter 14

The Reunion

Lily woke up the next morning in her mother's bed, she could hear the shower running, and knew it must be early if her Mom was just having a shower.

A few minutes later Mac appeared with her Presidential dressing gown on.

Mac: Hi Sweetie, are you feeling better

Lily: Yes Mom, the hangovers gone now

Mac sat on the bed next to Lillian, and put her arm around her. Lily liked it when she done that, it made her feel safe and secure.

Mac: That's not what I meant honey, you have had a chance to think now

Lily: I still feel really stupid; everyone will be talking about me at school again today.

Mac: Well your father is away today, how about you stay off.

Lily jumped up from the bed.

Lily: Really Mom that would be great

Mac: Yes really, but there wont be any sitting watching TV, you have to do school work all day, and go back on Monday with no complaint

Lily: Thanks Mom, you're the best

Lily hugged her mom tightly

Lily: I promise, I won't disappoint you again.

Mac, Kate and the kids sat at the Dining table eating breakfast. The Twins and Amy soon noticed that their sister was not ready for school, they were outraged that she got to have the day off, and complained to no end about it to their Mother. Mac finally allowed all of her kids to have a day off, with the exception of Horace, they all had great grades, and the condition was that they had to study at home.

Amy: Mom, do I have to do school work all day, if I stay home

Mac: Yes sweetie

Amy: Can I just go to school instead, my friends are there

The twins wanted to go to school too, which left just Lily home.

Lily soon went back to school after the weekend, and time passed, she was soon bored of being at home, and the kids at school soon forgot about her and started talking about other people.

Conner was in his office when the phone next to him started to ring, he answered and was stunned to fine who was on the other end, it was his first Girlfriend Danielle, he was surprised to hear from her, and as soon as he heard her voice his feeling for her came flooding back, he hadn't seen Lily for over a month, and he didn't mean to have these feelings for Danielle, but he really couldn't help it.

Danielle told him that she had moved to D.C, and wanted to meet up with him, he of course agreed, it would be fun, just like old times.

There was a state dinner coming up, and Mac and Rod thought that the oldest 3 kids could all attend, but hoped for better behaviour than last time.

Conner met with Danielle, it was great they were friends again, he managed to keep his true feelings for her hidden, and she had not shown any signs of having feelings for him.

He knew the state dinner was coming up, and Danielle had a dream of being in politics, he knew she wanted to be both the first woman and first black president, well she could still do one of those things.

Copper was like a kid with a crush, he hadn't thought this properly though, why was Danielle back now, she had an ulterior motive, she wanted to get close to the people he worked for, she wanted to try and have some contacts, to make her more influential when trying to get a head in the world of politics, but she had been make a fantastic offer from someone, it was an offer she could not refuse, but unfortunately it meant hurting a lot of people.
