Alright, everything is alright
Since you came along
And before you
I had nowhere to run to
Nothing to hold on to
''Where are we going again?'' Lily piped up from the backseat of her brothers SUV, looking at the two older kids at the front curiously.
''I told you, the Kerlow Centre.'' Nathan responded, turning a corner, keeping his blues focussed on the road.
She frowned in confusion. ''But it's Tuesday, Haley's dance class isn't on Tuesday's.'' she stated very matter-of-factly.
Haley turned around in her seat to look at her, giggling slightly. ''Remember that blonde lady that spoke to us on Friday? Well she's running a club for kids, so they can make new friends, play sports, have fun. I have to be there because I'm helping some of the kids with their work, I thought it would be fun for you, too. Who knows, maybe there'll be a couple of cute boys, huh?''
''She's six, Hales,'' Nathan reminded her, quite sternly. ''She's not dating until she's twenty five.''
''My brothers used to say that, and I'm with you, aren't I?''
''Boys have cooties!''
Nathan smirked at his girlfriend before looking at his little sister through the rear-view mirror with a satisfied smile. ''Yeah, boys have cooties. You wanna stay away from those, Lil.''
Haley looked at him in disbelief, muttering an ''Unbelievable.'' under her breath while rolling her eyes.
Ring. Ring.
She opened the glove compartment and pulled out her purse before grabbing her cell phone from inside. Haley grinned at the caller ID before pressing the answer button. ''Hey, Rach.'' she greeted quickly. ''Have you spoken to Damien today, or yesterday, or on Sunday? What did you guys talk about, secrets?''
Nathan laughed at her failed attempt at acting nonchalant.
''Um, hey?'' Rachel said, slightly nervous at her best friend's sudden surge of questions. ''Um, actually we've not spoke much these past couple of days. He's been out, or I've been out. So, you know.''
''Oh,'' she said, disappointment clear in her voice. ''Well, why are you calling?''
''Thanks,'' she grumbled sarcastically. ''I just... I wanted to see how you were and stuff. So, what's new?''
Haley frowned. Rachel never really asks about her, she usually gets straight to the point, or just talks about herself. Something had definitely happened, and it had turned her best friend strange. ''Uh, well I told you about the deal Chris offered, right? I've still not give him an answer yet, though.'' she paused in thought. ''My mom told the rest of my family about my one day suspension. They've all been calling me and asking if I'm okay and stuff, it's pretty freaky, Taylor even asked how much I was going for. I mean, how rude can you get? She knows that it's not true and yet she still-''
''Felix is falling in love with me!'' Rachel exclaimed, not being able to hold it in any longer. She wanted to talk to Haley about it, but she didn't, because that would make it even more real. After listening Haley ramble, she knew that she had to say something to shut her up, and that was the thing that's been spinning around her mind since Sunday, which just happened to be the thing she decided to say.
''Whoa,'' her eyes widened in shock. ''Wow, I need details, now.''
''Uh, we were just talking, and he said how he's never felt like this before. Then he said that he thinks he's falling in love with me- in the exact moment I decided to take a sip of my drink. I was so shocked that I kinda... spat it in his face.''
She burst into a fit of laughter, causing the other two people in the car to look at her strangely. She took a couple of deep breaths, feeling her face go slightly red. Haley could just see it in her mind. Rachel, spitting her drink in his face. Yes, it was totally gross. But that Felix is the jerk who's standing in the way of Rachel and Damien being together, he deserves it.
''Only you would do something like that, Rach.'' Haley finally said, slightly breathless.
''It was his fault! He could have like, warned me not to take a drink at that exact moment!
She giggled. ''What did you do next?''
''Luckily Damien called, asking if I wanted him to record America's Next Top Model for me. But I just pretended that the microwave blew up so I had to leave, I've just been avoiding him since, and Damien, too.''
Haley nodded in understanding. It would be completely awkward to tell a guy that you didn't love him back, luckily she didn't have that problem with Nathan because she thinks she loves him more than he does. But this is about Rachel right now, not her. Damien, though, why would she avoid him? It's not like he- ''Why are you avoiding Damien?'' she demanded, slightly excited.
Rachel coughed awkwardly. ''It's just been... weird. We both fell asleep in my bed on Saturday night, and it felt nice, really nice. I don't really know how to be around him anymore, he seems different, like someone's hurt him or something.''
''Hales,'' Nathan interrupted, breaking her away from her phone conversation for a moment. ''We're here.''
''Oh, okay.'' she smiled at him. ''Rach, I've gotta go. I'm starting my new job, I'll call you later.''
''Okay, bye.'' Rachel said quickly, hanging up the phone.
Haley turned to look at her boyfriend, right into those sparkling blue eyes that she loves. ''You sure I can't convince you to start working here, too?''
Nathan shook his head with a chuckle as he climbed out of the car, he opened the door to the back seat and helped Lily unbuckle her seatbelt. Once his little sister jumped out of the car, he took her hand and met Haley at the bonnet. He didn't want to let her down, because it seemed silly that he was going to stay today when he wasn't even helping out. Basketball's important to him, and sometimes it gets too important. He doesn't want to go all Dan Scott on these kids and scare them half to death. He didn't want them to start resenting basketball, like Nathan does sometimes, despite how important it is to him.
''I told you, I'm no good with kids.''
Haley shifted her gaze to Lily, raising an eyebrow.
''Okay,'' he sighed. ''I'm no good with kids except Lily and Gaby.''
''How do you know that, though?''
''Yeah, Nathan,'' Lily spoke up strongly, wanting to be part of the conversation, too. ''How do you know that?''
The three of them started to walk across the parking lot. Lily grabbed Haley's hand with her free one, holding onto it as they reached the huge building.
''I just do,'' he shrugged lamely.
After they walked inside and looked at the notice board for the hall number, they walked down one of the hallways which led to the hall.
''It's near the back of the building,'' Haley told them. ''The back door of it leads to the basketball courts and the field where they can play if they don't want to sit inside. It's the biggest hall here.'' she looked at her boyfriend's sister. ''I can help you with your homework here, too, only this time I'll get paid to do it... But I don't know if they'll have cookies, maybe we can try something else.''
Lily nodded, keeping her eyes down the hallway, she couldn't wait to get inside and start playing.
''You nervous?''
She giggled, looking at him strangely. ''Why would I be nervous?''
''You're starting a new job...''
''At an after school club for kids. And Deb seems to like me, and she offered the job to me.'' Haley shrugged, laughing slightly. ''I think I'll be fine.''
They reached the hall and walked through the giant double doors. About thirty kids from about ages five to twelve were there. Some were chasing each other around, some were sat talking, some were doing little arts and crafts activities on mini tables around the room, some were doing work on rounded tables near the corner as they listened to what the older person across from them were saying, some were playing with toys. And every single one of them looked happy.
Deb spotted them from across the room, her eyes lit up as a massive smile appeared on her face. ''Nathan!'' she exclaimed, hurrying over to the three at the door. ''And Haley, hi!'' she looked at the little girl. ''Hello, Lily.''
''Hi,'' she waved shyly at the slightly familiar woman in front of her.
''She's really shy around new people,'' Nathan explained, smiling sheepishly.
''Oh, that's fine,'' she waved her hand, crouching down next to the little girl. ''How about you go to that table over there?'' she pointed to a big circular table in the middle of the room with chairs surrounding it where other children were sat, using the materials provided. ''They're making glittery paper aeroplanes, you wanna go and do that?''
Lily nodded eagerly. ''Okay!'' she looked up at her brother. ''Make sure you stay, Natey.''
Nathan chuckled as she quickly ran towards the table in excitement. ''Will do, Lil!''
''Haley tells me that you didn't want the job here, Nathan,'' Deb said lightly, her eyes watery as she blinked them rapidly. ''The offer's still open, you know. If you change your mind, the job's yours.''
''I'm still thinking about it,'' he replied politely. ''Thanks, though.''
''You're very welcome,'' Deb nodding, turning to the boy's girlfriend. ''Now Haley, there's not as many kids here as I wanted, but hopefully more people will join when it gets warmer, then they can play outside. So there's only one or two kids that need help with their work today.''
''It's better than nothing, right?''
Deb laughed. ''I guess you're right,'' she nodded her head towards the tables in the corner of the room where some kids were being tutored. ''Haley, you wanna come with me and start working? There's a little boy that needs help with his punctuation.''
''Wait,'' Nathan held his hands up. ''Is it okay if I do my homework here? I have to stay to make sure Lily's okay on her first day. And you just said that you have room for more, so could I just sit at one of those tables?''
''Of course!'' she exclaimed happily. ''Come this way.''
''Is she always this happy?'' Nathan muttered to his girlfriend as the followed her across the hall, dodging the little kids who were running around.
Haley chuckled, shrugging. ''I guess so.''
''Haley,'' Nathan called over to her table which was only a couple of metres away from his, where it looked like she was trying to explain something to a young boy. ''Haley.''
She turned to look at him, slightly annoyed. ''Nathan, I'm trying to work.''
He nodded, smiling apologetically. ''I know, but why is the book called Of Mice and Men? Wasn't the mouse dead?''
''It's named after a verse in a poem,'' she responded, rolling her eyes. ''I told you that last week in tutoring.''
''Oh,'' he said sheepishly. ''Sorry.''
Okay, so maybe he knew that already. It's not his fault he wanted to talk to her. This was pretty boring. Lily was having fun with all of the other kids and was acting too cool to talk to her big brother. The children needed help with something every two minutes, and apparently they already liked Haley the best, considering the keep going to her tutoring table. He hoped to have at least two minutes alone with her, but it looks like that's not going to happen for a while.
''Why do you keep looking at her?'' one boy randomly questioned, poking him on the shoulder annoyingly. ''Maybe if you stopped then you wouldn't need to be tutored, you're like, really old.''
Haley laughed after over hearing what he had said. ''I know, Andre, he won't stop staring.''
Nathan glared at the kid, before yelling, ''BOO!'' causing the kid to jump, before running away in embarrassment.
''Nathan, that was so cruel.''
''No it wasn't,'' he objected. ''That was payback. Kids shouldn't be rude to elders.''
She looked at the young boy who was sat on her table. ''Have you finished now, Jeremy?''
Jeremy nodded proudly.
''Great job,'' she exclaimed, giving him a high five. ''Okay, you can go and play again now.'' When the boy hurried away, she looked back at her boyfriend. ''You mean kids shouldn't be rude to someone who's like, really old?'' she mocked, snorting at her own joke.
''You're so lame,'' he retorted jokingly.
Haley stuck her tongue out playfully as she stood up. ''I need to use the bathroom,'' she took the couple of steps towards his table and handed him her purse. ''Look after that, I don't want some kid stealing it.'' she leaned down and gave him a quick kiss, before skipping past the other activities in the hall and out of the room.
Nathan placed her purse on the desk, he immediately felt it buzz, but he didn't do anything, it wasn't his phone. It continued to buzz for a while, only stopping briefly. It could be an emergency, he realised as he opened it and pulled out her phone, as soon as he opened the phone the next text message flashed on the screen.
James, Rachel's avoiding me. I know it. I haven't even seen her all day. Has something happened with Felix? Answer your phone!
Guilt filled him as he realised that he had just read her text message. It was an accident, though. He didn't know that as soon as you opened her phone the text would just instantly appear. The phone rang again, so he pressed the answer button, slightly angrily. As he was about to yell at Damien for calling her at work, which could get her into trouble, his ex-rival already started talking.
''Hales, finally! What am I gonna do? She just goes out, doesn't even say bye, then when she comes home she just heads straight to bed, even if it's early. We've not had a proper conversation since Sunday when you guys were here. Do you think she found out about the fight on Saturday? God, James, what am I gonna do?'' he rambled, the pain evident in his voice.
''Just tell her already.''
There was silence for a couple of seconds. ''Whoa, Scott? What the hell are you doing with Haley's phone?'' he spluttered in embarrassment. ''And tell her what?''
''She's working so stop calling her and texting her, do you wanna get her fired on her first day?'' Nathan questioned in frustration, running a hand through his hair. ''And for the love of God, just tell Rachel that you love her already.''
''Wait- what?''
Nathan snorted, rolling his eyes. ''Dude, I know, okay.''
''Haley told you?'' Damien asked in anger, squeezing the phone so tight that he could almost break it.
''No, I just have common sense,'' he quipped. ''I'm dating Haley, man, she knows all of this stuff, and I'm starting to get it, too. Anyone can see that you two have feelings for each other. Now go away.'' he said, snapping the phone shut.
A minute later, Haley came back to the group of tables in the corner. She smiled at him as she grabbed her purse off the table. ''Some girls needed directions to the toilet, it took forever to get back here.''
He nodded, putting his now complete work into his folder and placing it in his back pack. ''Damien just called, I think he's gonna call back later, I told him you were working. He texted you, too. I swear I didn't mean to read it, I just got your phone in case it was your mom and it was an emergency, and the text message just popped up.''
''It's okay,'' she giggled, kissing him lightly. ''He's probably just having Rachel troubles.'' she sat down on his knee and wrapped her arms around his neck, resting her head in the crook of his neck. ''I really hope that Deb doesn't get more kids to come, this is pretty tiring.''
''At least you get to sit down,'' Nathan reasoned, wrapping his arms around her. He nodded his head towards another worker who was chasing a kid around who had stolen his shoe. ''And at least you're not that guy.''
Haley laughed as the young adult ran after the group of kids who kept throwing his Nike trainer around, there was no way he was getting that back anytime soon. ''I guess you're right.'' she kissed the spot just below his ear lightly. ''Thank you for being here today. I know you came because of Lily, but I'm still really happy that you're here.''
''Me too,'' he said softly, kissing the top of her head.
Lily suddenly came bounding over to them, pulling Deb by the hand. ''Haley, can you help me with my work now?'' she asked sweetly. ''And Nathan, Deb said she wants to talk to you.''
Haley untangled her arms from his neck and stood up. ''Sure thing, Lily Bear.'' she said brightly, taking her hand and leading her to her table.
Deb sat down on the seat opposite Nathan, smiling at him warmly. ''Have you thought anymore about the job?'' she glanced at the boy, who was still running after his shoe. ''We definitely need some more people here, and you would be a great person to help out, especially with sports. Only four people work here, including me, so we need more to control these kids.'' she explained. ''You would be a great addition to this place, Nathan.''
''I'm still not sure, sorry.''
''Come with me,'' Deb ordered lightly, standing up.
He followed her out of the hall, not before glancing at his girlfriend with a confused expression. Deb lead him out of the exit doors at the back of the building connected to the hall, where the old basketball court was, with a big open field lay beside it. The nets were rusty, and the court had graffiti written all over the floor. Nathan already preferred the river court, but this was good, too.
Deb grabbed his hand and squeezed it gently. ''Just really think about it,'' she whispered, letting his hand go and walking back inside the building.
Nathan stared at the net for a moment, not feeling the pressure on his shoulders when Dan helps him 'train'. No matter how much he says that he hates the game sometimes because of his father, he can't help but love it, too. It was freedom from everything life had to throw at him. If things got tough, playing a game of basketball would completely take his mind away from it all. It didn't fix it, but it sure did help. And the relief he felt when he found out that he could still play... it was unimaginable.
He picked up the basketball from the centre of the court and threw it in the air.
It landed in the net effortlessly with a swoosh.
''Wow!'' a little voice exclaimed from behind.
Nathan turned around and saw the little boy from earlier, the one who had called him like, really old. He was staring at him wide eyed in awe over the shot he just made from halfway across the court.
''How did you do that?''
''I've been playing since before I was your age,'' Nathan explained, smiling at the boy Haley had called Andre earlier. ''I practice a lot, so I'm pretty good.'' Just really think about it. Deb's words appeared in his mind, so he decided to give it a shot. If he could help one kid out, then maybe he was cut out for this working thing. ''Do you play?''
Andre shook his head. ''My brother was supposed to teach me, but he done some bad things and got taken away.''
Nathan took a couple of steps towards him. ''How about your dad?''
''I don't have a dad,'' he responded blankly.
He could sympathise with that. He didn't have a mom either, not technically anyway. This kid clearly needed some help, he was lonely, and he just needed someone to care. ''Do you want me to teach you?''
Andre raised an eyebrow. ''Why? So you can score brownie points with the pretty tutor?''
''I don't think I need them,'' he dribbled the ball with a chuckle. ''She's already my girlfriend.''
''Okay,'' he nodded, giving in. ''You can teach me. But I'm going to be better than you, I know it.''
''Whatever you say.''
Damien stared at the screen motionlessly with his arms folded across his chest. Even The Simpsons wasn't cheering him up. He just couldn't get his mind off Rachel, who was probably with Felix now, doing stuff that he couldn't bear to think about. He didn't even want to feel like this. She's his best friend, he's not supposed to want her like this- love her like this. It just sort of... happened. He can't even pin point when he fell in love with her.
Perhaps he's always been.
The door opened finally, and he stood up and hurried to the hallway. ''Rach, is that you?''
Rachel smiled at him kindly, already feeling awkward about their encounter on Sunday morning. She didn't like that her butterflies had suddenly got crazier around him, or if his arm brushed against hers then the tingles became even more powerful. She has a boyfriend, she's not supposed to feel like this anymore.
''Yeah, yeah, it's me.''
''I was starting to get worried,'' Damien stated sheepishly, running a hand through his hair.
''Oh, I was just at Chase's.'' she explained, walking past him and into the living room. Rachel smirked once she was the television. ''The Simpsons, again? I swear, you're obsessed with that show.''
''Yeah,'' he laughed, sitting back down on the couch, while she sat on the other one nearby. He couldn't help the smile that formed. She didn't go to Felix's and she was talking to him again, despite the fact that it was awkward between them.
Rachel started to fiddle with her hands nervously. ''Uh, Chase's goldfish died, we flushed him down the toilet.''
''Rach, what's going on?''
''Nothing,'' she said immediately. ''I just thought you should know, you always liked Brainy.''
''Rachel, I'm serious.'' he placed his hands together and leaned forwards, resting his elbows on his knees. ''Why have you been avoiding me? We usually can't spend a day without spending time together, and these past few days you can't get away quick enough. You're always at Felix's, and I-''
''I haven't been at Felix's,'' she interrupted admittedly.
He looked at her pointedly, saying nothing.
''I've just been doing some thinking, or I've been at Chase's or one of the cheerleaders houses.''
''Why?''
''Because... because Felix said he's falling in love with me.'' Rachel revealed, still looking down at her hands. Tears filled her eyes as her voice started to shake. ''I really don't wanna hurt him.''
You don't get happy endings by sitting around and telling yourself it's gonna happen one day. You have to get out of there and fight. You don't fight Felix, you fight for her. You're running out of time. If you wait too long then it's going to be too late.
Haley was right, she was always right. He's losing her, fast. If Felix is falling in love with her (that is a bit fast though) then sooner or later she's going to love him back. Then Damien's going to be stuck here, always being the best friend. Nothing more. If he doesn't step up and admit it, then he's never going to have a shot. If he doesn't say something, then they're never going to have a chance of being more than best friends.
''How's that going to hurt him?'' he finally asked.
''I don't feel like that about him. I like him, he's fun, and he makes me laugh. But you're supposed to get butterflies, right? Or I'm supposed to at least want to hang out with him, but I've been avoiding him. If I really, really wanted to be with him, then why aren't I right now?''
Damien swallowed thickly, his hands shaking. ''Do you have those types of feelings for someone else?'' he asked cautiously. Please don't.
She looked up, right into his green eyes, the ones with the hints of baby blue, too. ''Yes,'' she whispered, a tear rolling down her cheek. ''But it doesn't matter. He doesn't feel that way. It's pointless- stupid.''
He felt a weird ache in his chest. Two guys, he has to compete with two! ''Uh, who?''
''I can't say,'' she shook her head.
''Do I know him?''
Rachel almost cracked a smile. ''Yeah, yeah, you do.''
''Are we friends?''
''You could say that.''
Damien rolled his eyes mockingly. ''Do you think he's hot?''
She giggled, despite herself. ''Super hot.''
''Well he's an idiot. Because who wouldn't feel that way about you? I mean, you're beautiful, caring. You're really smart, but in your own way, you don't flaunt it. And you only eat in m&m's in even numbers, because you don't want an m&m to be alone. Even though I think it's crazy, it's also really cute. It's just who you are, and I love who you are. And if this guy doesn't, then he's not worth your time.'' he declared.
''I guess... I guess I should go then.'' Rachel stood up and started to walk out of the room, smiling to herself.
Damien stood up quickly, grabbing her arm to stop her from going anywhere. ''Why are you leaving? You just got here.''
''Well, apparently, you're not worth my time.''
He frowned. Whoa, does she- ''What do you mean?'' he asked. Damien was answered with silence, and he pieced it all together in his head. He looked at her in shock. ''It's... it's me?''
Rachel nodded silently, biting her bottom lip nervously. Her hands were shaking and she could actually hear her heart ringing in her ears as she looked as his facial expression changed. First he looked lost in thought, then he looked shocked, then he looked baffled, then he looked hopeful, then he looked ecstatic.
Then he looked at her.
''You're... you're serious?'' he asked, his voice wobbling slightly in emotion.
''Deadly.''
Damien smiled at her, and it was the biggest smile she'd ever seen him smile. He held her hand and pressed it on his chest. ''I feel it, too. Can you feel that?''
''It's beating really, really fast.'' she observed, happy tears sliding down her face.
'''Cause I feel it, too. I think- I think I've always felt it. It just took me so long to realise it, but now I know it's true.''
''Damien?''
''Yeah?''
''Just shut up and kiss me.''
He pressed his lips onto hers eagerly, causing them to stagger backwards into the wall.
They met when they were eight.
And now finally after nine years, they're together.
''Hey Deb,'' Haley called over to the woman as she walked over to her, pulling Lily by the hand. The centre was now almost empty, and Haley's shift was officially over. But now she's lost her boyfriend, she hasn't seen him since her boss dragged him away somewhere. She's actually started to get slightly worried. ''Where did you take Nathan earlier? I haven't seen him since.''
Deb laughed, shaking her head slightly. ''I took him to the basketball court out there,'' she pointed to the doors leading to the back. ''I didn't realise he was still out there. He sure loves basketball, doesn't he?''
''Oh,'' she smiled, slightly relieved. ''Yeah, yeah, he sure does.'' Haley nodded her head towards the doors. ''We have to leave, we promised we'd take Lily for ice cream, but she has to be back for bedtime in about an hour.''
''Okay,'' Deb sighed, covering it with a smile as the disappointment was evident in her voice. ''I'll see you next time then, Haley.'' she looked down at the little girl. ''Goodbye Lily, I hope you had a good time.''
Lily nodded eagerly, smiling widely. ''I love it here!'' she looked up at her brother's girlfriend. ''Can you bring me with you next time?''
Haley ruffled her hair playfully. ''Of course I can.''
''Yey!''
''Bye Deb,'' Haley said, making her way towards the door as Lily stayed by her side, clutching her hand tightly.
She pushed the door open and immediately heard the sound of laughter. The sound of the basketball hitting against the pavement echoed around the court. She immediately shivered, it was pretty cold out here. She didn't understand how he could still be out here when it was getting dark, it's been over an hour since she's seen him last. He didn't even bring a jacket with him.
Haley finally saw him, with Andre perched on his shoulders as the little boy put the ball through the net.
''Nice!'' Nathan exclaimed, placing him down on the floor and giving him a high five. ''You think you can do it by yourself?''
Andre nodded while taking the ball from him, he threw the ball but it missed the net by a couple of inches.
''Andre!'' Deb called from the doorway. ''Your mom's here to pick you up.''
''Well we can try it next time, kid.''
''Thanks Nathan,'' Andre said, looking up at his new, tall friend. ''You'll come back soon?''
''Yeah, of course I will.''
Andre gave him another high five before running past the two girls and back into the building.
Nathan turned around and saw his girlfriend, smiling smugly at him. ''Oh, hey. I didn't see you guys there.''
''We can see that,'' Haley quipped teasingly. ''So, there's gonna be a next time, huh? Have you decided to take that job after all?'' she asked, taking a couple of steps towards him while Lily ran after the basketball that had fell on the floor and started bouncing it up and down. Haley wrapped her arms around his waist, looking up at him.
''Yeah,'' he said. ''This was actually pretty cool. I wouldn't mind helping a few more kids learn how to play a few times a week, when you're here, of course.''
''Oh, of course.''
He laughed at her playfully tone and leaned down to kiss her, smiling when his lips touched hers.
''Natey, can you put me on your shoulders like you did with Andre?'' Lily asked excitedly, interrupting their little moment.
''Sure,'' Nathan broke away from her arms and swooped his little sister up in his arms, placing her on his shoulders. ''Hales, can you grab the ball?''
Haley picked the orange basketball up from the ground and handed it to the little girl, who threw the ball into the net, squealing excitedly when it went in.
And that's how they stayed for the next half an hour. Not caring about the cold, or time, or darkness. They were just perfectly happy with being all together, attempting to play basketball while Nathan tried to teach them to get it in the net on their own, and failed. But that didn't matter, because they were having fun. It seemed like for once it was actually going pretty easy for them, with actually no drama.
Deb watched them all from the doorway, smiling at the sight.
Her boy was happy.
