Chapter 11
The family sat in awkward silence with the tension of the new addition weighing heavy on the family. Sasha made glances at Rebecca from across the table as angrily ate her sweet and sour chicken. She mumble small things under her breath every now and then, until finally after the phone rang causing Stephanie to excuse herself from the table and Hunter went to the kitchen to get more wings, Charlotte elbowed her younger sister in the side.
Sasha glared back at Charlotte before she turned back to look over the redhead. The four girls were alone and she had something to say to the new girl, "You don't look like a Leprechaun"
"Because I'm not one" the girl said plainly, not having noticed Sasha's constant staring and mumbles the entire time.
"Aren't you from Ireland?"
"Yes"
"Well Leprechauns are from Ireland"
"Aren't you from America?" This question took Sasha by surprise for a second
"ye…"
"Well unicorns are from America"
"Unicorns aren't real" Sasha snapped with a confident smirk on her face seeming to have one upped Rebecca
"And neither are Leprechauns so what's yer point?" Rebecca smiled at the girl across from her before she went on eating her noodles, smiling even bigger when she heard Charlotte laughing as well. This causes both girls to bicker back and forth with Sasha being upset at her older sister for laughing while Charlotte was barely managing to hold in another laugh.
However Bayley sat there stumped before she tugged on her sister's arm causing her to lean down a limitless as she whispered into Rebecca's ear, "Unicorns are real though right? They're just a secret like the Leprechauns?"
Rebecca gave a confused look before she remembered that she had told the young girl that story back in Ireland to keep her from crying, "Right...but ya can't tell anyone remember?"
Bayley let go of Rebecca's arm and nodded making the small motion of sealing her lips and pocketing the key. Charlotte and Sasha's arguing stopped as Hunter returned with a plate full of hot wings, followed eventually by Stephanie who finished her phone call and the family ate again in silence. Well, all except Bayley who told over and over again, much to Sasha's annoyance, all about Ireland. The family had laughed many times at the young girl's encounter and had moved on to question Rebecca about her life in Ireland. She told them how they didn't have a lot of the stuff and how much bigger America was than Ireland.
"Really we seem kind of poor compared to how everyone here lives. Everything is much bigger" She said with a mouth full of lo mein, "You have a lot of foods and sweets that I've never heard of as well."
"Sweets?" Charlotte asked slightly confused as she picked at the sesame seed chicken
"Oh uh...candy….that's what you all call them here. I uh saw them when we were at the store" She replied trying to think of the words to explain what she was talking about, everything seemed so different, the foods, the space, the words. It was very difficult to get people to understand what she meant.
"Did you know she didn't even know what a PB & J was?" Bayley asked with a smile causing Sasha to snort while Charlotte and Hunter looked on slightly interested
"How do you not know what that is?" Sasha asked a little rudely but only Charlotte and Stephanie seemed to notice.
Rebecca merely shrugged and explained how she just never had it before and how what they call jelly, in America, was called jam in Ireland, and Jelly in Ireland was what Americans called jello, "I don't think it would taste that good anyway"
At this all three girls looked slight shocked at this, peanut butter and jelly sandwiches were their favorites and Rebecca had, one, never even tried it before, and two, said they probably were nasty, "You've never even tried on before how do you know it's not good?"
"Yeah they're delicious" Bayley smiled big with noodles hanging from her mouth
Rebecca smiled sweetly at the young girl's antics before having another shrug as she just went back to eating her food, leaving the table in silence before Sasha made another comment, "What's with those things on your head?"
This caused everyone to look at the goggles situated on top of Rebecca's head before Hunter answered for the girl saying that he gave them to her.
"Why?" Sasha asked as she rolled her eyes, her dad was already giving the new girl stuff. It's not like the goggles were cool, actually they looked ugly to Sasha but she didn't care. She didn't like that Hunter gave them to the redhead and not her.
"Her eye is still sensitive to light and I though they were cool so I gave them to her so she could stop wearing Stephanie's ugly ol' shades" Hunter said earning him a glare from Stephanie but he ignored it and laughed
Stephanie in turn spoke up and changed the subject, focusing on their newest daughter,"Rebecca I just talked with your foster home and Sable, they got your records from the school, so once everything is sent over I am going to get you transferred to Creekside where the girls go. You should be enrolled before the end of the week."
"Wait she's going to school with us?" Sasha asked their mother
"Obviously, what did you think she was gonna do, keep going to her old school back in Ireland" Charlotte said annoyed as she rolled her eyes at her younger sister
"I don't know I just didn't think about it" Sasha snapped back
Charlotte took a sip of water and mumbled under her breath that Sasha didn't think much in general. This earned her a scowl from the girl sending them into a bickering match of glares and weird faces. Well Sasha made weird faces while Charlotte continued to glare and mumble things.
Hunter found the show funny as he was happy that the girls were back to normal from the fight they had before. He knew how much they butted heads, but it was only because they were so similar and he as their father understood that this fight would eventually come to an end. He just hadn't known when. Stephanie on the other hand, not knowing about the fight, did not find this funny as she told them both to knock it off. The girls stopped looking at each other but it was obvious that they were still mumbling things back and forth and possibly kicking each other under the table causing Bayley to laugh at them. While Rebecca shrunk down in her seat a little and continued to eat, not once looking up from her plate.
"So tomorrow is Saturday guys….what would you like to do?" Hunter said with a smile as this seemed to get all the girls looked to him with interest.
"Ooo lets go to the park" Bayley said eagerly
"We always go to the park, let's go to the Seaworld" Sasha suggested
"Oh yeah let's do that instead, I wanna see the fishies" Bayley said clapping causing Sasha to smirk as she got another person on her side.
"Can't we just go see a movie?" Charlotte asked looking at Stephanie
"What? No! That's lame. Bayley and I wanna go to Seaworld so its 2-1 we win"
"Rebecca didn't vote yet" at this all heads turned to Rebecca who had opted out of the conversation as she was used to having no say to where they go. When she lived at the foster home all the other kids ignored her and made all the decisions by themselves whenever they got to go anywhere, which wasn't often. They only went to the cinema once and even then they had locked her in the closet so she couldn't go with them, "Rebecca do you want to go to SeaWorld or the movies?"
Rebecca looked at all of the faces and shrugged, she didn't want anyone to get angry with her and she really didn't know what SeaWorld was anyway. Hunter and Stephanie looked at each other and went to speak to the girl but were both cut off by Sasha, "That's not fair she probably doesn't even know what SeaWorld is"
"Do they have a SeaWorld in Ireland?" Bayley asked confused, looking up at her older sister
"No...um I don't know, what is it?" Rebecca asked smally still shrunken down in her seat, her answer causing Sasha to jump up and shout with a huge smirk on her face
"See! I told you she doesn't know what it is" Sasha smiled victoriously before she went on, "It's where you get to see all of the killer sharks and deadly fish that'll bite your heads off"
Rebecca looked on wide eyed as Sasha explained every dangerous animal she could think while Bayley grabbed the older girl's hand and smiled, "They also have cute sea turtles and a place where you can see dolphins and touch a stingray"
Sasha deflated in her seat at her little sister's explanation seeing as how it seemed to calm the red head down. She wanted to mess with her, Sasha couldn't really understand why she felt this way but she just didn't like her. She didn't like Rebecca being here or how friendly she was with Bayley or just having another person to steal her mom and dad's attention from her. She was the center of attention, she was the boss in this house and what she wanted, she got. Maybe if she can convince them to go to SeaWorld they could leave her there and forget all about her. That's what she would do, Sasha smirked deviously as she began to plan in her head all the ways she could get rid of Rebecca.
"Oh...there's a place like that in Ireland, but its not in Dublin and it's definitely not called SeaWorld." Rebecca said, not once looking at Sasha as she could feel the girl's anger towards her, "I never went though...I just heard about it"
"Well I think this one will be fun and it's a new thing for you so it'll be a cool family trip" Sasha said with the sweetest smile she could muster up, making Stephanie suspicious of her younger daughter's actions.
"Okay then, Seaworld it is...I don't think we've been there since Sasha first came to live with us" Hunter said with a smile before taking a sip of his beer and looking around at his family, "It'll be fun"
Stephanie nodded slowly, still staring at Sasha, eyeing the girl to see what she was really up to but Sasha ignored her gaze. After a while Stephanie stopped at went on eating as did the rest of the family, keeping up regular chatter with a few small comments made here and there causing them all to laugh.
Once dinner was over Hunter and Stephanie let all the girls get ready for bed as they cleaned up and made plans for tomorrow. Rebecca followed behind the girls as they went upstairs, remembering that she was rooming with Sasha as they went into their shared room. It was fairly large, larger than the the whole living room at her foster home, and it was basically split down the middle with two beds, two desks and a closet on one side with a dresser on the other. Normally Rebecca wouldn't have anything to put in either one but after Stephanie insisted on buying the girl clothes she had a whole wardrobe that consisted of more clothes than she had ever worn in her lifetime.
"That's your side...you stay on it...this is my side….don't touch any of my stuff...ever" Sasha said, making wild hand gestures as she motioned back and forth between the sides as if she were explaining something to Bayley, " You got that?"
"Uh...sure" was all Rebecca responded slightly leaning away from the girl before going to her side and sitting down on her bed which had green linen on it and a bunch of bags filled with Rebecca's new stuff.
The dresser was on her side of the room so she began folding her clothes and putting them in there when she felt eyes staring at her. However when she looked over at Sasha the girl quickly looked away pretending as if she wasn't there. So she continued on and after a while Sasha left to take a shower, leaving the Irish born to herself for a minute. Well it was only a second before there was a knock on the door.
"Hey, mom told me to bring you these" Charlotte's voice rang out causing the younger of the two to turn to see the blond holding a set of green towels.
"All this stuff is green...is it because of the whole leprechaun thing cause I already told Sasha there's no such-"
"No...it's not because of you being Irish or Sasha's whole Leprechaun thing. Each of us have like a color so we know whose stuff is whose. Mine is blue, Bayley is red and Sasha is purple, we just picked green for you...you can change it if you want I mean it's not a big deal" Charlotte said looking down at the towels in her hand and went to continue on with her rant but stopped when Rebecca took the towels from her and smiled.
"No it..it's fine, thank you" Rebecca placed the towels down on the dresser and turned back to Charlotte to see the older girl staring at her with a weird look, "uh..anything else you need?"
"Oh uh..no I just wanted to see if you were settling in okay..I know rooming with Sasha can be annoying, this room used to be a family room and I shared with her, but that didn't work out too well" Charlotte said with a smirk before she continued on, "Look if she gives you any trouble…"
"No I think I'll be fine, I've dealt with way worse"
"But you shouldn't have to, Stephanie and Hunter...they're great and they do their best to make sure that we don't have to live the same way we did before them. They saved my life as well as the others and I know that Sasha can take some warming up to but our whole family is pretty cool once you get used to it"
Rebecca smiled at this and nodded before thanking the older girl for her kind words and the two fell into light conversation about anything they could think of before Sasha came back. She was dressed in a long sleeved white shirt and purple plaid sleep pants, her hair still wet from the shower.
"you can go ahead and take your shower now" she said without looking at either of the girls.
Charlotte rolled her eyes at her little sister's rudeness before she offered to take Rebecca to the bathroom leaving Sasha alone to finish thinking about her plan to get rid of the girl.
She could push her in the shark tank. No too obvious, she could sell her at the gift shop. No she's too big, maybe she could get her lost and have Stephanie and Hunter give up their search and just leave her there. Yeah, she could make it seem like Rebecca ran off and left them...she could-
"What are you planning in here?"came the sharp voice of her mother, snapping Sasha clean out of any ideas she was having, "I know that look on your face"
"What look? I'm just sitting here" Sasha said as innocently as she could even giving her mother a big smile to try and convince her.
Stephanie shook her head, she knew her daughter was planning something and she hoped that it wasn't something to hurt Rebecca. However knowing Sasha she knew the girl had probably already thought of a million ways to get rid of the newcomer. She knew that the girl was in a sour mood after meeting Rebecca and had already set it In her mind that she was going to hate the new girl no matter what.
Stephanie understood that she was going to be jealous because of Sasha's past family life. But trying to explain to a seven year old that you love them unconditional is hard especially when the girl needed extra attention and love and tended to get jealous very easily. So with another girl in the house she would have to share a lot of things.
"Can I just sit with you then?" Stephanie asked before taking a seat next to the girl on her bed, "Since that's all your doing in here. Look Sasha I know that having a new sister is difficult for you but I know that you're my big girl and that I can trust you to make Rebecca feel welcomed right?"
She was met with no response as Sasha just grumbled so Stephanie placed her arm around the small girl, ignoring her wet hair as she pulled her close to her and began to talk again, "You know that she was bullied a lot at her old home?"
Sasha rolled her eyes, of course she knew that's why she was at the hospital in the first place and the reason their mom left them for over a week even though she promised never to leave them, "Yes I know"
"Well, I, know that you were also bullied before you came to live with us and you know how it feels right?" Sasha paused and reluctantly nodded as she figured out where this story was going, "Then you understand what she went through, and you don't want to put anyone through that again right?"
"I wouldn't wish it on anyone" she said sadly looking down at her hands that played with the hem of her shirt, "I'm not trying to kill her or anything...I just don't want her here"
"Why?"
"She...S-she...I don't know. I already have to compete against Charlotte and Bayley for your attention I don't want to have to compete with a new girl. The new girl always gets all the attention that's what Charlotte says and she's right. All of your concern is with her, that's why you left us and went to Ireland, and you cared more about Bayley than us so you took her with you. You left us and you promised that you would never do that"
Stephanie hugged the girl closer, wiping the fallen tear that came down the young girl's face, "Sasha you know that I love you very much and I understand that I left but I came back like I said I would, I would never purposefully leave and never come back. I love you girls too much to ever do that, and I took Bayley because she had a nightmare...she wouldn't let me leave and Rebecca was in the hospital, it was the only way to make sure everything was okay. It didn't mean that I loved you any less, I love you to the infinity and back Sasha and nothing can change that ever."
"You missed Charlotte's first volleyball game"Sasha said so smally Stephanie wasn't even sure she heard it, "It was on Monday, dad went but he didn't understand it like you do"
"It that what this is about...Char-"
"You missed my doctor's appointment it was on Tuesday, dad took me but I wanted you to hold my hand and kiss the band aid like you always do"
"Sasha I'm sorry, I needed to be in Ireland with Rebecca" Stephanie tried to explain but Sasha pushed her mother away.
She stood up in the center of the room and with all her bottled up anger from the week, from Charlotte, from their dad, from the bullies at school, and screamed, "Because SHE'S more important. Because YOU love her more than us MORE THAN ME! You left because you wanted to"
"Sasha you know that's not true...I love all of my girls and of it was you in that hospital I would've left and came to see you as well"
"SO WHAT? I have to be near dead to get you to care about me?" Sasha said tears freely flowed down her face and Stephanie sighed, she didn't know how to explain this to the girl and she didn't understand how their conversation had reached this point.
There was a silence for a while, the room filled with only Sasha's sobs and Stephanie went to respond but stopped when she saw Rebecca standing at the door dressed for bed. She was in an old school, black, Rolling Stones T-shirt and green, plaid pajama pants, holding her wadded up clothes in her arms. She looked sad and nervous, unsure of what to do next as she came back during this intense conversation. Sasha being the first to move rushed past Rebecca and back downstairs, leaving the redhead and Stephanie to themselves.
"I'm sorry about that Rebecca, Sasha... it just...it takes some time for her to open up to change" Stephanie said looking down sadly at the girl before she went to move past her saying, "I'm going to go talk to her"
"Wait...uh can I talk to her" Rebecca said taking Stephanie aback slightly but she smiled sweetly and nodded. The girl placed her dirty clothes in a neat pile beside the foot of her bed a grabbed something from one of the bags she, pocketing the item and rushing downstairs.
Once she got down there she immediately noticed that the TV in the living room was on and figured that's where her new sister was. She slowly made her way into the room waiting for Sasha to notice her before she took a seat beside her and spoke, "Hey"
"What do you want?" Sasha brought her knees up to her chest and hugged them tightly
"Nothing..I just wanted to make sure you were ok..and I wanted to say that I'm sorry"
"What?"
"I'm sorry" this caused Sasha to look at Rebecca curiously, "I'm sorry that I make ya feel like that...like Stephanie doesn't love ya or anythin'. I felt like that a lot back in Ireland, like nobody ever loved me or wanted me."
Sasha didn't say anything for a while so the two sat in silence until Rebecca began talking again.
"It's hard..not being wanted… I get it, I know how it feels but what you have here...your family...Stephanie and Hunter..you're wanted" she paused thinking about how much she should tell this girl who obviously didn't like her, "I lived on the streets for a while...my parents didn't want me so I know what that feels like..what it looks like to be unwanted and trust me this isn't it. And i get that you hate me but.."
Sasha mentally scolded herself for being such a baby as tear rolled down her cheeks before she said, "I don't hate you if that's what you think….I don't even know you to hate you"
"Sometimes it doesn't matter….the kids in mi foster home hated me and they didn't know me" Rebecca responded honestly, shrugging her shoulders at the thought of them
"Well I don't hate you"
"You just hate me being here" there was a silence after this as Sasha paused to think she wanted to answer honestly and tell her yes but she didn't want to hurt the girl's feelings. After all she really didn't hate her, "So that's a yes...would you rather me leave?"
This caused the young girl to look at her new sister with a wide eyed expression, confused as to what the girl meant. She couldn't really leave...could she, "Stephanie and Hunter would never allow it"
Rebecca shrugged and leaned back on the couch her eyes looking strangely at the television. She had never seen whatever cartoon was playing before and there were strange animals running around hitting each other with hammers, "I could tell them I don't like it here and I could go back"
Sasha laid her head down on her knees so she was looking at Rebecca, "That would be a lie...with everything you just told me there's no way you could ever willingly go back there...you probably hate the place"
"Not really, everything here is weird..all of your words and foods are weird. I could go back if I wanted..I could handle those bullies back in Ireland. I could go back if I had to I mean it is mi home after all...and you don't want me here"
"you don't have to do that..I just...i don't get why they would get another child...I..I thought we were enough" Sasha choked out, tears welling up in her eyes
"Hunter said they wanted to give me a better life like they did for you guys and honestly them seem like really good people that just want to do right by another kid. I don't think that it means that they love ya any less they just have room for more...but I'm not here to steal them away from ya or anythin" The redhead thought for a second before she mentioned, "You have something here that some kids never get. You have a family, sisters, people that love ya...I..I wish I had that."
"I..I just"
"ya don't understand why..I get that, but a friend once told me not to worry about the 'why' he said to worry about the how. I think ya get a lot more answers in life thinkin like that"
Sasha smiled a little before saying, " I don't think that's right...wouldn't you get more answers by asking why?"
"You would think that but actually yer just gettin the same information. Like why is the sky blue...because of uh..stuff in the sky that makes it blue. Then how is the sky blue, because blah, blah, blah that makes the sky blue, either way you get the same information..stuff in the sky makes it blue. Do ya understand what I'm saying?"
Sasha laughed at the girl, actually enjoying her company. She didn't seem so bad once she got to know her and she kind of felt bad, once again, for coming up with ideas to get rid of her, "I'm sorry..I get it you're not here to steal my parents, it probably wasn't even your fault..or choice, that they picked you"
Rebecca scratched the back of her head before saying, "weeeeelllll.. back in Ireland... when I heard Stephanie and Hunter were at the foster home I sought them out on purpose. I mean I didn't force them to pick me or nothin' but I did run into them at the home"
"Why?"
"It's uh...it's kind of stupid but ...mi whole life I only had one friend that wasn't mi brother and a he was this kid at the foster home but a couple years ago he got adopted by an American family. We had promised each other to meet again and this felt like it was my only chance to maybe...I don't know find him." now Rebecca pulled her knees up to her chest and hugged them to her.
"You came here to see your friend"the other girl nodded
"Yeah I know stupid right?"
Sasha hopped up a little on the couch so she was facing rebecca before she began wildy asking for details, "what's his name? What did he look like? How old was he? Where did he get adopted to?"
"His name was.."
"What are you two doing?" came the voice of Charlotte from the living room entrance causing both girls to look and see not only Charlotte but Bayley as well.
Both girls were dressed for bed with Charlotte in a light blue tank top and a pair of black volleyball shorts. While Bayley wore a pajama pants that had bears on them and a large purple shirt which Sasha immediately recognized as hers.
"Hey that's my shirt"
Bayley smiled widely and stuck her tongue out at her older sister as she clutched onto Charlotte's hand, "Mom gave it to me, she said you don't wear it anymore"
"That doesn't mean you can have it" Sasha groaned as she crossed her arms and focused back on the TV as Charlotte lead Bayley to join the two on the couch.
"What are you two doing down here?" Charlotte asked again sitting between the two while Bayley sat down on the other side of Rebecca.
"Nothing"
"We were just talking" the two said at the same time
"What are YOU two doing down here?" Sasha asked staring at her older sister
Charlotte shrugged and looked to the TV, "Bayley heard the TV and mom and dad are in their room so she asked me to come with her"
This seemed to satisfy Sasha's question as the girl watched the cartoon playing with her sisters...well, yeah she guessed she could consider Rebecca her sister now, but she still wanted to know more about her, "Tell is about yourself Rebecca….I mean we don't know anything about you"
This caused Charlotte and Bayley to look between the two before slightly agreeing with their sister. Even though Bayley knew a lot more she didn't know the simple things like the girl's birthday or her favorite color. While both Charlotte and Sasha were practically in the dark and Sasha wasn't going to feel comfortable until she knew who exactly she was being forced to room with.
"Well...what do ya want to know?" Rebecca was an open book she never had secrets before and she tended to speak her mind a lot.
"uh...when's your birthday?"
"January 30"
"Ha! Mines is January 26! I'm older than you" Sasha nearly shouted doing a little happy dance in her seat, confusing the young Irish born.
"uh..ok" Rebecca didn't understand the importance of that fact but she was glad the girl was in a happier mood
"Ok what's your favorite food?"
"Pancakes...back in Ireland they had a whole day for 'em and ya got to eat a whole bunch"
"You guys had a whole day for pancakes?" Bayley asked in wonder, she loved pancakes more than anything, even more than her Lucky Charms cereal
"yep..Shrove Tuesday"
"Shr-what?" Sasha asked
"It's like a tuesday in February when we have our pancake day"
"we have a national pancake day too...at IHOP" Charlotte said trying to calm the youngest girl's energy that seemed to bubble up when she heard pancakes.
"What's IHOP?" this caused Bayley to stop bouncing in here seat as she stared in confusion at the older girl.
"The international house of pancakes. Its a restaurant here that sells breakfast foods"
"How could you never have heard of IHOP?" Sasha asked
"We don't have one in Dublin" She said with a shrug as she looked to the screen once she heard a loud bam coming from the cartoon, "and we don't have whatever this show is"
The girls looked to the TV and began watching together, Bayley becoming fastly engrossed in the show while Sasha continued to make glances back and forth between the TV and Rebecca. She didn't feel as weird about her being here and there was something about the fact that she was older than the girl that helped her to, in a way, validate her importance in the family. Charlotte was older than the others so she got to do a lot of cool stuff, well now that Sasha was older than Bayley and Rebecca, maybe she could do cool stuff too. Like stay up later or even ride in the front seat when Hunter took them to the store.
"It's just Looney Toons, it's a cartoon that Bayley and Sasha like to watch. It usually comes on on saturday mornings but i guess this is just a re-run" charlotte explained before the girls fell into a comfortable silence as they watched and laughed along with the cartoon. Each of them smiling as Bugs Bunny evaded the hunter and Tweety Bird escaped Sylvester.
"These characters all have the same plot….one runs from the other…" Rebecca said still confused as to why the others were so in to the show.
"Yeah but it's still funny" Bayley said, her smile taking up half her face as she looked at her older sister before she went back to the screen and laughed at the TV.
Rebecca nodded slowly at this, taking it in before she too just sat back and watched the show, slowly finding herself enjoying not only the cartoon but also the company of the other girls around her. After a couple minutes into the show Bayley had leaned her head on her shoulder and she couldn't tell if she was sleeping or not but she allowed the girl to rest. Charlotte sat closely beside her watching all of her sisters, smiling slightly at Bayley and Sasha who was also asleep on her shoulder.
"Should we uh…" Rebecca whispered, letting her sentence hang in the air as she motioned awkwardly to the sleeping girls, trying not to move too much in case she woke up Bayley.
"Let them rest, we have a big day tomorrow" Charlotte said smiling, she grabbed Rebecca's hand and gave it a small squeeze, "I'm glad you're here Rebecca...I can tell you're going to fit in well, Bayley already seems to love you and you might even bring out the best in Sasha"
Rebecca nodded and smiled back, tucking a strand of her hair behind her ear before she thanked Charlotte and said, "Ya know you can call me Becky"
"Ok..but I like Bex better, it sounds cooler.." rebecca laughed at this before making a mental note to think of a cool nickname for charlotte later on, but right now she was beginning to get tired and just wanted to sleep, "Go ahead and get some rest..I can tell you're tired"
With that both girls began to get comfortable on the couch before falling asleep leaning on each other's shoulders, neither of them noticing Hunter and Stephanie standing behind the couch at the living room entrance smiling. Hunter held Stephanie in his arms and placed a kiss on her forehead both smiling at their four daughters before heading back upstairs to their room to get some sleep.
