HI! Your responses from last chapter made me smile so big and decided to write some more! You all are the bestest (I know not a word lol) Anyway, here is a little bit of drama. Enjoy!
Oh, and just finished catching up on the last three seasons of CM and I'm disappointed it was over, specially how fast their storylines were closed to abruptly and some out of nowhere.
Do not own Criminal Minds :(
Mistakes are mine

One week later
Alvez was running late when he heard the doorbell rang. He walked up to the door and opened it. "Kaden what are you doing here? I was going to meet you at the airport."
"It arrived early so I decided to walk here." He hugged his dad.
Alvez smiled and hugged his son back. "Did you let your mother know you arrived?"
"Yes, I called her when I landed." Kaden said.
"I'll show you your room." Alvez said excitedly.
Kaden followed him as he went to the guest room. He opened the door and looked around the room.
"It's not much but you have the necessary space." Alvez said knowing his room at his mother's house was twice as big.
"It's a good room. Not my taste but…" he started saying as he looked at the ugly decorations.
"Yea Alice chose the decoration."
Kaden didn't say anything. It wasn't good at all, but he was only staying there for a week. He put his bag down and sat on the bed. "Dad why are you still with Alice?"
Alvez sighed. "Not this again."
"Fine. I'm going for a walk." Kaden said and got out of his room.
Alice opened the front door and saw Kaden. "Oh hi." She said but Kaden just walked past her without a word leaving the place. Alice look Alvez as she closed the door. "You know that boy needs to learn some manners. So rude."
"He's 18. What do you expect?" Alvez asked as he shrugged his shoulders.
"There you go again defending him and taking his side." Alice rolled her eyes and headed to the master bedroom.
Alvez rubbed his face in annoyance.
This was going to be an interesting week.
,,,,,,,,,,
Later that day 2:30pm
Emery was just falling asleep when Penelope's cell went off. She answered right away, made sure Emery stayed asleep and walked out of the room.
"Mom? Mom."
"Sorry honey. I just put Emy down." She said as she walked towards the living room and started to pick up the toys on the floor.
"Did I wake her up?" he asked worriedly.
"No. She's definitely the opposite of us." Penelope chuckled but noticed how quiet he was. "What's wrong?"
"Ugh it's Alice." Kaden sighed.
"What? You just got there." Penelope said trying to keep him there to spend time with his father, but she knew how much he disliked Alice.
"I don't even know why dad is still with her," he admitted.
"Honey why are you so hard on her? Have you even given her a chance?" she asked and heard him sigh in irritation. "Please try to have fun over there. Your father wants you there all to himself without all your siblings so you two can bond and it will mean a lot to him if you get along with the woman he loves."
"But that's just it. Dad doesn't love her mom, he loves you. Ugh, she's such a bitch."
"Whoa Kaden," Penelope warned.
"Fine. I'm sorry. I'll do my best."
"Good!" She smiled even though she knew he couldn't see her. "I love you honey."
"Love you too mom." He said even though he was annoyed.
"Have fun," she said.
"Yea right." He said and ended the call. He looked at the building his father lived in and headed towards it. He opened the door and walked into the penthouse.
"You okay?" Alvez asked.
"Yes. You know it's not safe keeping the door unlocked." Kaden said.
Alves chuckled. "I know you would be back, or I hoped you'd be back sooner than later."
"Where's Alice?" Kaden asked.
"She's in her office. She has a million papers to grade."
"So, what's for dinner?" Kaden asked.
"I was thinking we could go to the best pizzeria in town," Alvez grinned.
Kaden smiled. "Cool! Let's go."
"Alice we're going out." Alvez yelled out.
"Bye," Alice said obviously not caring.
Kaden rolled his eyes at the easy dismissal, and he left with his father.
The two of them had fun talking and joking around as they made their way to the pizza place. They took pictures on the way and Kaden sent all of them to his mother.
"Stop sending them to her." Alvez chuckled.
"It makes her smile." Kaden grinned.
"How the heck do you know? You can't see her." Alvez teased.
Kaden rolled his eyes, smiled and sent another picture. "She told me how much she loves this city."
"Here we are." Alvez smiled as they arrived at the pizza place. The host sat them down and they ordered two sodas first.
"Mom said to order her favorite." Kaden looked at his dad curiously.
"I used to come here with your mother all the time." Alvez said.
"What was her favorite?" Kaden asked.
"She loved the personal thick pepperoni loaded pizza." Alvez smiled.
"That's a mouthful." Kaden teased.
"The waiters knew right away. They didn't even have to ask what she wanted."
"You knew what she wanted too right?" Kaden teased.
"That's just wrong," Alvez chuckled.
Kaden laughed out loud. "But true."
They ordered their food and when it arrived Kaden took a picture and sent it.
"Of course you sent it," Alvez chuckled.
"She said her mouth drooled when she saw it."
"When we get back to Florida, we should make her one." Alvez smiled.
"We?" Kaden asked.
"Um," he cleared his throat. "You."
"Next month you should come," Kaden said.
"I would love to Kaden, but I can't miss any more days." Alvez said.
"Can't you open a new practice in Florida?" he asked hopefully.
"I could but it's not that easy."
"I know mom would love it." Kaden said.
Alvez smiled and they kept eating.
"Oh, I wanted to show you mom's belly." Kaden said as he looked through his pictures on his phone. "It grew since the last time you saw her." He found the picture and showed it to his dad.
Alvez couldn't help but smile. "She looks amazing." He said softly. He looked at the photo so intensely that Kaden chuckled amused.
"She's not going to come out of the picture."
"Shut up." Alvez glared at his son. "I admit. She looks incredible."
"She's excited to meet the twins. She talks to them when she thinks no one is watching." He smiled but then frowned. "She's lonely dad."
"I can't do anything about that. She made a choice…"
"18 years ago. She was young and stupid. Now she's older and wiser and hoping you make a move, or you know, many moves." Kaden grinned.
Alvez's eyes widened. "No, she's not."
"But you want too anyways." Kaden smirked.
"Shit you are us put together." Alvez said amused.
"Duh you both made me." Kaden said sarcastically.
Alvez chuckled and shook his head. "Why do you want us to be together so badly?"
"Well, the obvious reason you both are my parents…"
"And the other reason?" he asked but not wanting an answer.
"And because it's so obvious to any blind person you two are in love with each other."
Alvez didn't say anything and kept eating his pizza.
,,,,,,,,,,
Two hours later. 12:30am
Alvez opened the door to the penthouse, and everything was dark.
Kaden scoffed. "Wow she didn't even wait for you."
"Stop."
Kaden's phone beeped and he looked at his message and smiled. "Mom says she's happy that we spent some time bonding by ourselves tonight."
"I knew she would like that," Alvez smiled.
"I'm sure you did," Alice said from the bedroom door.
"Babe I didn't know you were still awake." Alvez said ignoring the comment.
"I wanted to wait for you, but I guess you had to much fun and didn't need to call me and let me know you'd be late." Alice glared.
"Are you serious right now?" Kaden asked.
"Son don't…" Alvez said.
"No. Go ahead son," Alice said sarcastically.
Kaden scuffed. "First of all, I'm not your son. Second, I just got here and you're already jealous that my father is spending time with me. Wow. Needy much?"
"Oh please. I know what you're trying to do. He is my husband. He is with me. He will never be with your mother." Alice glared.
"You know you sound really pathetic, insecure and immature right now." Kaden rolled his eyes. "My parents love each other they're just stupid and to hurt to see it."
"You're just a kid. What do you know?" Alice asked.
"Oh, I know more than you do trust me." Kaden smirked.
"What the fuck does that mean?" Alice asked Alvez.
"Okay you two need to cut it out." Alvez said. "It's late."
"I promised mom I was going to be nice but she's pushing it." Kaden told his dad.
"Good night," Alice said sarcastically and went back to the room.
"Oh my God I don't hit women, but I really want to punch her in the face." Kaden said pissed off. "She's such a bitch."
"Kaden go and try to get some rest. Tomorrow will be a better day."
Kaden chuckled. "Sure it will." He said and walked towards his room.
,,,,,,,,,,
Two days later 9:45am
Kaden was having a good time with his dad. Alice would always make an excuse of why she couldn't hang out with them.
But today would be another story.
Kaden woke up and walked out to the kitchen. He glared when he saw Alice eating breakfast. Alvez was getting ready for work in the bathroom so he couldn't have prevented what was about to go down between the two people in his life.
"Good morning," Alice said without looking at him. "Cereal is over there and bowls over there and spoons right over there." Alice said.
Kaden didn't say anything but, in his mind, he was telling her to fuck off and that he knew where they were since he already knew. He grabbed a bowl, a spoon and poured cereal in it. He grabbed milk from the fridge and then went to sit on the kitchen table and started to eat. A couple of minutes passed as they ate in silence.
"You know you're wasting your time," Alice said without looking at him.
"How am I doing that exactly?" Kaden asked without looking at her and took a bite.
"Your father will never leave me. We've been together for so long to just call it quits trying to convince him to leave me."
"You don't even love him." Kaden glared. "And he doesn't love you."
"So? I know he doesn't love me anymore, but I make sure to keep him satisfied enough for him to stay." Alice said smugly.
"Gross." Kaden gagged.
"But true."
Kaden glared. "If I hadn't promised my mother to be nice, I would've cursed you out already."
"How is your mother by the way?" Alice asked finally looking at him.
"She's great."
"Really? Great?" he asked sarcastically.
"Yes. She's great." Kaden said seriously ready to defend his mother.
"Oh please. You're back in her life, that little orphan baby and the twins are going to suck the life right out of her."
"You better stop while you're ahead," Kaden said between gritted teeth.
"What? It's true. I feel bad for her." Alice said. "I bet she's probably going through a midlife crisis right now and needs to feel needed with all of those freaking babies around the house soon."
"I'm warning you," Kaden was seeing red, and his hand were closed in fists ready for anything else that bitch would tell him.
Alice didn't care and just kept talking. "She was probably living the best life before you made your appearance. She'll never be the same person after all that, you know. But I'm not surprised this is happening. She always wanted attention according to what your father said about her. I guess after all these years she is still the same person deep down huh. Desperate for everyone to need her. Desperate for attention. That's why she wants so many kids around her." She scoffed. "Your parents aren't in love. It's all your mother's doing. Now that you're back in her life she thinks Luke is back in her life too and that is far from happening. I'm sure she's using what's between her legs to try and make him go back to her. Your mother was a slut in high school and she's a slut today."
Kaden didn't even know he did it until he saw the glass splattered all over the kitchen.
"What the fuck?" Alice yelled at him. "That was my favorite vase. It was imported from Paris."
"Don't you ever talk about my mother like that again or I swear to God, I will fucking kill you." Kaden glared.
"What the fuck happened?" Alvez asked as he walked out of the bedroom seeing Alice in shock looking at the broken vase on the floor and Kaden fuming and his fists ready to punch.
"Look what that little shit did." Alice yelled.
Kaden went to his room grabbed his things and walked past the kitchen.
"What happened?" Alvez asked his son.
"Why should I even bother explain? You're going to take her side anyway." Kaden glared and stormed out the penthouse. He called Penelope right away. "Mom, I'm headed to the airport."
"You okay? You just got there. What happened? Where's your father?" she asked worriedly.
"I'll tell you when I get there. I'm so mad I'm afraid I'll break this phone."
"Okay honey. I'll buy your ticket right now."
"Thanks mom." He ended the call and grabbed the first taxi he could get and headed to JFK.
,,,,,,,,,,
Back at Alvez's Penthouse 10:50am
Alice was pissed as she cleaned the glass while Alvez paced back and forth.
"Can you please explain to me what the fuck just happened? And why my kid almost broke your face in?" Alvez asked.
"I didn't say anything that wasn't true." Alice mumbled.
"What did you say Alice?" Alvez said sternly.
Alice glared at Alvez but then started to explain what she had said in detail on purpose just to get him mad.
Alvez was seeing red and tried to take a deep breath before he would break something.
"What? It's true." Alice said defensively.
"Alice I'm going to ask you one more time is that everything you said?"
"Luke why are you making this a big deal? Kaden is 18 years old. You don't have to worry about taking care of him. He's already an adult. Why are you wasting your time with him? I think Penelope did you a favor not telling you about him. It would have ruined your life. You have an awesome career and me to take care of. Stop acting like you and Penelope are a family to him because you are not. It's ridiculous. You know he's only with you for your money."
Alvez was fuming now but calming said, "Alice you have ten seconds to grab your things and get the fuck out."
Alice's eyes widened. "What?"
"You need to get your things and leave."
"Are you kidding me? No this is my house too." She said with fear.
"This place is in my name, and you can't even afford the water bill. Get the fuck out."
Alice's eyes widened. "You can't do this."
"I can't?"
"No."
"Watch me."
Alice scuffed. "I knew this would happen."
"Really?" he asked annoyed.
"I knew you would find any reason for you to dump me so you could go back to that pregnant bitch." Alice spit.
"Alice so help me God I'm about to…"
"You fucking asshole. You're not even a real man."
"Wow you're saying stupid shit now to make me madder."
"I know the moment you get to Florida you're going to fuck her brains out. Just like you've always wanted to do since you guys stopped talking."
"At least I'll know she's coming and screaming my name because of me not because she's thinking of someone else." Alvez spit back.
"Asshole."
"When I get back you and your things better be gone, or I will call the cops on you and press charges."
"For what?"
"For verbal abuse." Alvez said. "Trust me. I'm an awesome lawyer. I can make your life a living hell if you don't do what I said." He smirked.
Alice glared and went to the bedroom.
Alvez sighed and pressed on Kaden's number, but it went straight to voicemail, so he called Penelope right away.
"What the fuck did Alice do?"
"Don't worry I took care of it." He said as he grabbed his coat and suitcase and headed out the penthouse.
"So help me if she laid a hand on Kaden I will…"
Alvez got in the elevator. "Baby, don't worry our son already took care of that."
"Don't call me baby." She barely said.
"Sorry." He sighed. He didn't even notice he called her that. "Did you talk to him?"
"Yes. I bought him a plane ticket. He's boarding now. He'll be here in five hours."
"Penelope, I swear I didn't know it was this bad."
"It's okay Alvez."
"I took care of it. I kicked her out. We are done." Alvez said and walked out of the elevators and out to the town car waiting for him.
"I'm sure Kaden is going to be happy about that." Penelope said.
"Listen can you please tell him to call me as soon as he lands?"
"Yes, I'll tell him, but you know if he doesn't want to talk to you, he won't."
"I know. He's just like us." Alvez said.
"We did good huh?" Penelope asked.
Alvez barely smiled. "We did good Penny."
"I have to go; Emery just woke up from her nap."
"Can I call you later?" he asked.
"Yea."
"Bye." He ended the call and looked out the car window. What the fuck just happened? He broke up his marriage with Alice and chose Kaden and Penelope over her in a heartbeat. He sighed frustrated because he knew he still had a lot of shit to deal with Penelope, but he knew deep down he wanted to be with her regardless.
But he knew it was not going to be easy.
