Previously:
Five minutes later Rylan was walking out of the bathroom after going to the toilet. This time she had one of Lenas sweaters over her pyjamas.
"Cold baby girl?" Stef asked as she picked Rylan up and set her on her hip.
"Yes and it smells like mama." Stef kissed the little girls cheek as they left the room and headed to the kitchen.

"Hey Mini, hey mom." Callie called out with a smile on her face as her mom entered the kitchen with the little blonde on her hip. Callie headed over to where the two blondes were and gave them a group hug. Rylan wrapped her arm around her sisters neck and smiled. She had missed her sisters and brothers a lot. It was too quiet in the hospital after living with this many people, even though she had slept a lot in the hospital she still noticed the difference.
"Are you hungry?" Callie whispered into her sisters ear, Rylan nodded and smiled before releasing her sister. Stef went over and placed Rylan on a stool and sat next to her while Lena sat on the other side of Rylan.
Each kid went over and hugged or kissed Rylan before taking a seat at the table and began to dig in.
"Were you cold baby girl?" Lena looked from her sweater the little girl was wearing to Stef. It reminded her of the time Rylan had worn Stefs shirt back when they first fostered her. The shirt had made her look so, so, so small and vulnerable but also very adorable and now wearing Lenas shirt made her just that much cuter. Lena leant over and kissed the little blonde on the temple to check her temperature but not feeling anything she waited for Stef to answer since the little blonde hadn't said anything in response.
"She said she was cold but she also likes the smell of it, it smells like you." Stef explained. Lena smiled and nodded. She wondered if she would get her sweater back. Each of her daughters had stolen one of her sweaters in time of need but they had always been returned and swapped for a new one. Obviously the smell of Lena had faded and they wanted a new one with the smell back.
"So Brandon had the best idea Mom. He suggested that we play monopoly together after lunch." Jude smiled as he looked at his brother and then back to him Mom. Stef smiled aswell.
"Sounds good to me. Great idea buddy. Get ready for this Mom to kick your a...behinds." Stef finished with a look from her wife before she could even say ass's. Rylan giggled a little as she nibbled on her plain cheese toasted sandwich.
"Whats that bandage on Rylans chest?" Mariana asked after a moment of silence. Everyone turned to look at Rylans chest where the bandage was covering her stitches.
"Thats where her stitches are." Everyone nodded, understanding. Mariana just wanted to check, she knew that Rylan had to have fluid drained but she didn't know if she needed to be cut or anything and now she knew.
Rylan reached up and placed her hand on the bandage as she continued to nibble her sandwich. Lena pushed Rylans hand away from her bandage so it wouldn't come loose or get dirty. Anything Lena could do to stop infection she would, the little girl didn't need to get sicker then she was.
"Hello!" The front door opened and closed and Sharon voice pierced the air. Both Moms rolled their eyes. They knew that Sharon would be early even though she said she would be over after lunch.
"In the kitchen Grandma." Jesus called out. Both moms rolled their eyes at their son, he had to yell didn't he. Jesus smirked at his moms before taking a large bite of his sandwich.
"Hows my awesome grand kids going?" Sharon smiled as she walked around the table hugging and kissing each of the kids on the head and giving them hugs before giving her daughter in law and daughter a kiss on the cheek each.
"Hey Mom." Stef greeted smiling at her mom. Sharon leant against the kitchen bench and smiled at her family.
"Were doing great now grandma. We are going to play monoploy after lunch and then we are having a BBQ tonight and then roasting marshmallows." Jude announced after swallowing the bite of sandwich he just bit into. Sharon smiled.
"Well sounds like loads of fun to me." Sharon beamed as she turned to make herself a cup of tea, no doubt Stef would want a coffee and Lena would want a tea, so without asking she made them one.
Stef stood and grabbed Rylans bottle of water and then her medication. They would change her bandage after she had a bath or shower tonight. A bath would probably be better to keep the bandage dry.
"Here you go baby." Stef placed the medication and water on the table. Dr Gleeson had given Rylan the liquid kind, they had tried to give her the tablets but her gag reflex was high an as soon as she tried to swallow the tablets Rylan had just vomited them up. Dr Gleeson said it was normal and that Rylan just wasn't ready for tablets just yet.
Rylan drunk the medication and then washed it down with the water before leaning to her left. Her head against her Mamas side. Lena wrapped her right arm around her daughter and bent down and placed a kiss on her head.
"Finished baby girl?" Stef asked. Rylan nodded. She hadn't eaten much but she had eaten a little so that was something.
"Mom, can Jude and I go set the monopoly up?" Jesus asked after he had put his dishes in the sink like Jude had.
"Go clean your hands first and then yes you may." Stef told the two boys as they headed to the bathroom to wash their hands.
Callie, Mariana, Lena and Sharon were talking about something that didn't interest Stef at all, so Stef picked up Rylan and headed into the living room, she took a seat on the sofa with Rylan in her lap and kissed the little girls temple. Stef usually did it for comfort but now she found herself doing it a lot to check for any temperature the little girl might have. So far so good.
"You going to play monopoly Baby girl?" Stef asked stroking Rylans back. Rylan was straddling Stefs lap and had her head in stefs neck.
"No." Came the quiet reply. Stef knew that the little girl wasn't going to play, she just had to ask so she didn't feel left out. Stef knew that if her mom didn't play, Rylan would snuggle with her but if Sharon did play, Stef was more then happy to sit out the game to cuddle with her daughter.
"Alright lets get this game set up." Brandon said as he, Jude and Jesus got the game set up while the girls were still in the kitchen talking.
Xxxxxxxxxxxx
"Alright hand me my grand baby and go play." Sharon said as she held her arms out for the little girl in Stefs lap. Stef stood and handed Rylan off to Sharon before kissing her head and then moving to the floor to sit around the coffee table with the others.
Sharon sat on the sofa and held Rylan on her lap. Rylans back leant against Sharon's front meant that Rylan could watch her moms and siblings play.
"So Rylan, do you like living here?" Sharon asked casually. She wanted to get to know her newest hopefully adopted soon grand daughter. Rylan nodded.
"I love Mama and Mommy." Sharon smiled at that answer and kissed Rylans head.
"You remind me so much of your mommy when she was your age, did you know that?" Rylan turned on Sharons lap so her back was against the arm rest. She was now able to look at Sharons face while she spoke.
"No." Sharon smiled.
"You do. If I didn't know any better, I would have swore that Stef gave birth to you. You look so much like her and you act like her aswell, you are a perfect mixture of your Mommy and Mama." Rylan smiled and looked to the side to see her Mama and Mommy smiling. She watched as her mommy placed a kiss on her Mamas cheek as they laughed and played.
"Are mommy and mama going to be mine forever?" Rylan asked wondering. She didn't ever want to leave here. She continued to look at her Mom and Mama with hope, hope that she could be theirs forever. Sharon put a finger under the little blondes chin and made her look at her.
"Your mommy and Mama love you very much, I think they will do anything to make you stay with them. Parents love their kids and they will do anything to protect them and keep them safe. I have no doubt that Your moms will do that." Rylan nodded. She hoped that Sharon was right, but she had this feeling that not everything was going to go to plan like that.
A loud groan brought Sharon's and Rylans attention back to the people on the floor playing Monopoly.
"Should we buy it?" Mariana smirked as she looked at Callie. They had landed on parklane s and were deciding if they wanted to buy it.
Mariana and callie had decided to be a team, Jude and Lena ended up being a team, Brandon and Jesus went together which left Stef on her own, which she didn't care.
"Do it." Callie chuckled an evil chuckle as she bought park lane making Brandon and Jesus groan in frustration. The two had bought Mayfair and had gone around the board a good seven times hoping to land on Mayfair. Now their sisters had landed on it and bought it and it frustrated them.
"This means war." Jesus smirked out as he rolled the dice.
Xxxxxxxxx
"Alright, BBQ time." Stef announced as the kids continued to play without Stef and Lena. Stef, Lena, Mike, Sharon and Rylan were going to go sort the BBQ out while the kids finished their game.
The kids has other plans though. They decided since the teams were now broken that the game was over and followed the adults into the kitchen.
"You didn't have to stop playing guys." Lena says as she sees the kids walk into the kitchen and take seats at the table.
"Well it wasn't any fun after you and mom left, the teams were broken up so we decided the game should end and we should come and help set up the BBQ." Jude explained earning nods from his siblings and smiles from the adults.
"Hey Cal, can you take your sister please? I need to chop up onions and I can't do it one handed." Sharon asked as she walked closer to Callie. Callie held her arms out but Brandon intercepted.
"Ill take her." Brandon held his arms out for his sister. Sharon gave Brandon and eyebrow raise before passing the little blonde into her older brothers arms.
"Lets go get your transformer." Brandon whispered into his little sisters ear. Rylan had forgotten all about her Bee toy and so she nodded quickly and smiled as Brandon took her upstairs. The entire family looking towards the stairs where they had just disappeared.
"Hes really good with her. Never thought he would take a liking to a kid." Mike says as he continues to look at the stairs. Stef chuckles.
"Well, he has changed a lot. Hes really good with her and they like each other. They have their moments." Stef explains as she places sausages on a tray ready to be cooked.
Everyone had their tasks to do after Lena gave them jobs. Brandon and Rylan came down 5 minutes after they had gone up stairs. Rylan was still in Lenas sweater over her pyjamas but she had her Bee toy in her arms. Lena smiled, she had forgotten all about the Bee toy when they had taken her to the hospital, seeing her with her favourite toy made Lena smile.

"Mike seriously, its not that hard." Mike grumbled out a few words as he tried to start the BBQ. Jesus laughed as he watched his older brothers dad try to start the BBQ.
"Back when we were married I was the BBQ queen, he would be dish washing king." Everyone chuckled at that. Mike rolled his eyes and then flung a dish towel at Stef which collided with her face. She pulled it off and glared at him.
"Your not the queen of the BBQ anymore Stef. The boys out rank you." Stef glared, she knew it was true so she didn't say anything. Instead she flicked the BBQ on and strutted off with a flick of her hair causing everyone but Mike to Laugh, his jaw just hung as he watched his ex wife strut away after just embarrassing him.
Lena had watched the exchange with amusement and a little bit of Jealousy but that fizzled away with one look at her wife. Mike may have been her past but she was Stefs present and future.
Lena walked in the direction that Stef had gone. Seeing her wife in the kitchen at the sink washing the tray that had held the raw sausages. Noticing all the kids were outside with Mike and Sharon, Lena walked over to her wife.
"You may not be the Queen of the grill any more but you are the queen in our room." Lena whispered into her wifes ear after wrapping her arms around her wifes waist. The contact and the breath on her neck making Stef shiver. Stef wiped her hands on a hand towel before she turned around to face Lena and placed a kiss on her wifes lips, bringing her hands to rest on Lenas hips.
"Really?" Stef whispered seductively into Lenas ear, bringing the lobe into her mouth. Lena moaned a little and wrapped her arms around Stef neck pulling their mouths together for a passionate kiss.
"Eww moms seriously. Get a room." The moms moment was broken at the sound of their middle daughter. Both women turned their heads to see Mariana looking at them with a frown and Rylan on her hip.
"Sorry, but sometimes we need to reconnect." Stef said before shrugging. Lena chuckled as Mariana made a disgusted face.
"Still, do it in your room, not in public where your kids can see... Mini wanted you." Mariana set Rylan on the floor before heading upstairs. Both moms chuckled and then looked towards each other, placed a kiss on each others lips before Stef went back to cleaning the dishes and Lena went forward and scooped their youngest up.
"Mama, Marshmallows now?" Rylan asked looking at her Mama with a puppy dog look. Lena would have given in but she knew that they had to eat dinner before they had dessert.
"After dinner ok Baby girl." Rylan nodded.
"Do you want some water baby?" Stef asked from her spot at the sink. Rylan nodded as Lena placed a kiss on Rylans temple to check her temperature. She wasn't hot, just a little warms so that was a good sign. Stef dried her hands and then went about grabbing the little girls water bottle and filling it with water and then handing it to her.
Once the water bottle was in her hands, Rylan brought it straight to her mouth and sculled. She didn't realise how thirsty she had gotten.
"Were you thirsty baby." Rylan nodded before taking a deep breath and sculling more of the water before having enough and handing the water back to her Mom.
"Make sure you tell us if your thirsty baby. We dont want you getting dehydrated ok?" Rylan nodded at her mom before wiggling out of her Mamas arms and walking carefully out of the kitchen towards the backyard. Both moms watching her go.
"Shes going to be alright now."

"Alright baby lets go get you bathed and in your jammies then Mama can change your bandage." Stef whispers as she stands up setting the little girl on her hip.
"With bubbles?" Rylan gave her mom a puppy dog face and everyone couldn't help laugh. The little girl had her moms wrapped around her finger.
"Of course." Stef smiled and placed a kiss on Rylans cheek before sending a glare to the family around her, earning herself more laughter.
"Just go." Lena shooed her wife as she chuckled. She would go up in a few minutes to check and change the bandage since Stef hadn't listened to anything the doctor had said about changing Rylans bandage because she was too busy fussing over Rylan. Lena knew Stef could change it since she had done her own gun shot wound one, just thinking of that made her shiver.
"Jesus. Seriously?" Lena raised her eyebrow at her son. Everyone turned to look at the boy and chuckled. He had his stick loaded with 5 marshmallows and was holding it over the fire.
"What?" Jesus shrugged and pulled his stick out of the fire before leaning back in his chair and started to munch happily on his sticky goodness. Lena shook her head and took the marshmallows from his reach and placed them in Sharons lap, giving her one look. At that look Sharon nodded, she knew that look meant no more for Jesus.
"This is what weekends should be like. Spending it with family." Callie whispered. She felt like her family was complete. Once Rylan was adopted then it would be official but still it felt right.
"I have to agree, family time is awesome. And sweet." Mariana piped up as she licked her fingers clean from her sticky marshmallow. Lena walked over and kissed all of her kids cheeks.
"Alright, im heading inside. Dont stay out too long ok, school in the morning." Lesays as she hugs her mother in law before heading to the house. She stopped and turned to look at the place she had just left.
Her kids, her mother in law and her oldest sons dad. They were a weird and crazy bunch but they were her weird and crazy bunch. Her family.
