Chapter 28: Sixteen
Peabody got out of bed early in the morning and walked into the kitchen. Peabody had a smile as he took out some pans, Eggs, Bacon, Milk and some apple juice out of the refrigerator. Thomas woke up and got out of his bed and went to the bathroom before heading towards the kitchen. Thomas walked out of his room and headed for the kitchen. Thomas noticed a plate a food on the island with a cup juice and two cards next to it. Thomas smiled as he walked over to the plate and pick up both cards. They were both cards from Sherman and Peabody. Thomas opened Sherman's first and read it out loud.
"Happy birthday big brother! Even though we've only known each other for seven months your coolest brother I'll ever! Happy birthday again. Love Sherman," Thomas read it with a smile. Thomas puts down Sherman's card and grabs his dad's card. "Happy birthday sixteenth birthday son. I know this last year was a little bit out of hand and I've only known you for seven months instead of a full sixteen years. But I want to let you know that I love you," Thomas read it with another smile and his heart feeling warm. Thomas sat down and ate the food his dad had made for him. Thomas washed his plate after he was finished eating and puts the plate away. As Thomas walked into the livig room, he felt his go off in his pocket. Thomas pulled out his phone out of his pocket and looked at the text from his phone.
"Hey son! come down to the lab, I something to show you :)" Peabody texted.
...
"Okay I'll be right down," Thomas texted back.
Thomas then puts his phone back in his pocket and heads over to the elevator. Thomas gets into the elevator and heads down the to his fathers lab. Once the elevtors doors opened Thomas walked out the elevator and walked into the lab. "Dad?" Thomas said as he walked through the lab. "Over here son!" Peabody called out behind a tarp. "Okay," Thomas said as he walked over to the tarp. Thomas then pulled the tarp and was then surprised by some silly string. After Peabody was done with the silly string he smiled at his sun how cover in silly string. "So you wanted to have some fun huh?" Thomas said with a smile as he tried to get the silly string off of his body.
Peabody chuckled as he walked over to his son and helped him get it off. "Sorry son I just thought this was going to be funny," Peabody said with a chuckle. Thomas chuckled. "Yeah it was funny. But this is more funny," Thomas said as he grabbed the silly string can and sprayed his father on the nose. Peabody only smiled as Thomas laughed at him. "Yeah I guess that was more funny," Peabody said as he took off the silly string off his nose. Thomas helped his father clean up the silly string and headed for the elevator. "Thanks dad for having a laugh for me," Thomas said with a smile. Peabody chuckled as they got in the elevator.
"No problem son," Peabody said as he press the bottem to go up. As the elevator went up it was silent for a moment. Thomas looked down at his father who was tapping his foot on the floor. "Dad," Thomas spoke up. Peabody then stopped tapping his foot and looked up at his son. "Yes son?" Peabody asked. "Thanks for the card and everything. It means a lot," Thomas said with a smile. Peabody smiled back. "Your welcome son," Peabody said as he looked forward. Thomas then looked away from his father and looked forward. Once the elevator doors opened, they came to a big surprise. "Surprise!" friends and family shouted as Thomas and Peabody walked out of the elevator.
Thomas couldn't keep the smile off his face as he looked around the room and all of his friends and family around for his birthday. It was nice party with friends and family around. Thomas had some laughs, along with being around Mr. Fox and his father in the same room. Thomas stepped out of the living room and walked out onto the balcony to get some air. After a few minutes of being outside. Peabody walked out on the balcony and joined his son. "May I join you son?" Peabody asked. Thomas turned and looked at his father. "Yeah sure," Thomas said with a smile chuckle. Peabody smiled as he walked over to his son. "Whats on your mind dad?" Thomas asked. Peabody only smiled as he looked over at the city.
"I just can't believe you're already Sixteen," Peabody said with a smile as he looked at Thomas. Thomas smiled back at him. "Dad. The age I am is only a number," Thomas spoke up. Peabody looked down at the city again and shook his head. "Son... For those last fifteen I... I'm still so sorry for not knowing about you," Peabody said softly. Thomas looked down at the ground. "Dad That's not your fault," Thomas said as he puts his hand on his fathers shoulder. Peabody looked at his son seeing his sons two color eyes. Peabody smile and chuckled as he shook his head. "Whats so funny?" Thomas asked. Peabody looked back up at his son. "Everytime I look at you I see more and more of me and your mother," Peabody said with a smile. Thomas smiled back at his father. "Thanks dad," Thomas said another smile.
Before things could get too emotional. Peabody cleared his throat and looked towards the penthouse. "I think we should head back to the party," Peabody said as he handed out his paw. "Yeah lets head back," Thomas said as he started walking towards the door to the party. Peabody watched as Thomas went back into the penthouse as he stayed out on the balcony. Peabody started thinking back when they first met and where they are now. Peabody only smiled as he thought about the future and many more things to come. Peabody still couldn't believe that he had two sons. One was now sixteen and one was twelve almost thirteen. There was only one thing that could make his life even better and complete. Peabody reached into his pocket and pulled out a small box and smiled at it. "It'll be soon enough," Peabody said as he puts the small box back in his pocket and started walking back into the penthouse and having fun for the rest of the night.
