I don´t know what else to say: But I´m sorry that it took so
long!!!!!!!!!!!
(To m_yu182 actually you´re not supposed to know if Cory and Tc are together! You are going to find that out in later chapters)
A Second Chance?!
Chris was in the bathroom helping the kids out of their wet clothes, when the doorbell rang.
"Who can that be?" Chris asked herself and said to the kids, "You stay here, I´ll be right back, " with that she went downstairs still in her wet clothes.
When she opened the door she saw a totally soaked Tc standing there with Julia in his arms, who was soaked too of course.
"eehm, Tc hi what´s the matter?" She asked surprised.
"Hi well I somehow lost the key, so we can´t get into the house."
"Oh . . . okay, come inside before you get a cold," Said Chris and lead them into the house.
"Mommy," cried Kate from upstairs, "me cold!"
"I´m coming honey!" shouted Chris back, then she turned to Tc and Julia, "I think you should get out of your clothes too mmh . . . I can give Julia something from the girls they´re almost the same size but for you . . . "
"It´s okay maybe you can just give me a towel that would be nice," Said Tc.
"Yeah come with me upstairs," Chris said to Tc.
Chris went into the bathroom, where the triplets were waiting, followed by Tc and Julia. She pulled a few towels out of a cupboard and handed them to Tc.
"Here. I´m gonna get some clothes for the kids I´ll be right back."
"Okay thanks," Said Tc, took the towels from Chris and started to dry off Julia.
Chris went into the rooms of the kids and came back with a couple of clothes. She gave some of the clothes to the triplets and the rest to Julia. Chris helped the kids to get dressed and when Tc started to dress Julia, Chris noticed that Julia had something like a birthmark on her back. That´s when Chris remembered something:
«Flashback» (four years earlier)
In Cory´s apartment rang the doorbell.
"I´m coming!" Shouted Cory and went to open the door:
"Hi Chris!"
"Hi Cor. You ready?" Asked Chris.
"No just a minute I can´t find my key. . . but come in," Invited Cory her.
Chris walked into the livingroom and sat down on the couch looking at Cory who looked hectically for her key.
"Hey Cor, you don´t need to be so hectic we still have enough time!" Said Chris trying to calm Cory a bit down.
At that moment Will came out of the shower only wearing a towel around his waist.
"Will have you seen my key?" Cory asked looking at Will.
"No," just then Will realized that Chris was there, "Oh hey Chris, I didn´t noticed you are here, how are ya?"
"Fine!" She answered, smiled at him and thought * not bad, but nothing to compare with Tc´s body*
"Good, well I think I should get dressed, " Said Will, turned around and went into the bedroom. That´s when she noticed the birthmark on his back . . .
«Flashback End»
"Oh my god!" Chris said out loud:
"What´s the matter Chris?" Tc asked looking at her.
"Nothing . . . I just need to get out of my clothes," With that she finished dressing the kids and went into her bedroom closing the door behind her. Tc looked after her, wondering what that was about.
*Oh man I can´t belive it !!! Nooo that can´t be, Cory wouldn´t lie to Tc, no no I must be wrong* , thought Chris while getting dressed. Then she looked into her wardrobe to see if she had a shirt for Tc that would fit. When she found one she went back into the bathroom.
"Here I found a shirt that should fit," Said Chris, giving him the shirt and still looking shocked hence to what she might just found out.
"Thanks . . . hey you okay you look like you´ve seen a gohst?" Tc asked slightly worried.
"I´m fine," She said and smiled at Tc.
"Sure?" He asked and took off his shirt.
"mmmh . . . yes. Are you hungry?" Chris asked trying to distract herself from Tc´s body.
"A little bit, but Julia is probably hungry besides breakfast she didn´t eat anything." Tc said and put on the shirt Chris just gave him.
"Alright then I go make something to eat. You can put your wet clothes into the dryer if you want."
"Thanks!"
"No problem." With that Chris went downstairs into the kitchen.
Upstairs:
"Daddy," Julia called after her father who was just about to go downstairs.
"What´s up pumpkin?" Tc asked picking her up.
"Where´s mommy I´m hunkry!"
"Mommy´s still shopping. Chris makes something to eat you just have to wait a little. Now go back to play with the triplets." He said and put her back on the ground. Julia immediately ran back to the triplets and Tc went down in the kitchen.
"Hey you need help?" Asked Tc.
"Could you give me the salt?" Chris asked pointing to the salt.
"Yep," answered Tc and gave the salt to Chris, "since when can you cook?" tc asked impressed.
"Well with three kids I had no choice, I needed to learn cooking, always going out for dinner would have been to stressful and to expensive," She said smiling at him.
After he smiled back an uncomfortable silence followed. But Tc soon broke it "I think Tony´s gonna kill me."
"Why?" Chris asked simply.
"Because that was his last key and now it´s gone too. How are we supposed to get into the house?"
"I don´t know where it is, but it can be that Tony gave me once a key. I´m gonna look for it after dinner." Chris said trying to remember where it could be.
"Oh . . . that would be great if you have a key," Tc said hoping he got exempted from Tony´s anger.
"I think dinner is ready can you get the kids?" Chris asked while she put plates on the table and filled them with pasta.
"Yah I´ll be right back," Said Tc and went upstairs.
After a few seconds he came back downstairs with the kids and helped them on the chairs.
While they were eating Brian thought it would be more fun to put the pasta on Lucy´s head than to eat it. That´s why Lucy started to shout right away, "Eeeeeey noooooooo!!!", and tried to hit Brian.
That got Chris attention, "Hey could you please stop that. Why did you do that? The pasta belongs into your mouth not on your sisters head," Chris said angry while taking the pasta from Lucy´s head.
"I go get a tissue," Said Tc.
Then Chris looked at Lucy, "And you miss are not allowed to hit your brother."
"But mummy he´s silly!" Lucy stated.
"And we don´t use such expressions here and we don´t throw food around, you understand me," Chris looked seriously at Brian and Lucy, But they just looked into an other direction.
"Okay I think you two are finished with dinner, go and clean your hands!"
"Fine!" Both said latched and went upstairs.
When they were upstairs Kate said, "They´re bad mummy wright?", and looks at Chris innocently.
"Please Kate on other days it´s you, but now eat up!"
When dinner was finished Tc helped Chris to do the dishes. After that chris started to look for the key but after almost 30 minutes of looking she gave it up.
"Sorry Tc, but I can´t find it."
"Don´t worry about it somehow we will get into the house," Said Tc and all his hope to avoid Tony´s anger had disappeard.
Tc looked at his watch, "Wow it´s already 6.30 pm. Time really went fast today, I wonder where Cory is and Tony should come home soon.
"You know what? It´s awfully quite upstairs. I think I go check on the kids," Said Chris and walked in the direction of the stairs.
"Wait I come with you," Said Tc and followed her upstairs.
When they arrived in one of the kids room, they saw that all four were fast asleep on the bed.
"They must have been really exhausted," Said Chris and put a blanket over them.
"Probably," Said Tc, gave Julia a little kiss on the cheek and went together with Chris downstairs into the livingroom.
Chris flopped down on the couch and sighed loud. On that account Tc asked, "They can be really strenuous huh?"
"Ha you tell me . . . that today was nothing you should see them on other days!"
"What about their father, doesn´t he take care of them sometimes?" Tc asked nosy while thinking about the pictures he had seen upstairs. On the pictures were the triplets, Chris and a guy (Doug) that he assumed would be the kids father and they all looked very happy.
*Okay now is the perfect time to tell him*, she thought and when she wanted to start the doorbell rang, *Damn!!!*
Chris stood up and opened the door only to find a pretty angry Tony standing there.
"Hey Tony," Chris greeted him carefully.
"Hi, please tell me that Callaway is here," He said getting more and more pissed.
Chris nodded and told him that Tc´s in the livingroom.
"Tc, why in hell aren´t you at my house, how we arranged it?"
"I´m sorry but I . . . we have a problem," Tc said not knowing how to start.
"What problem?" Tony asked looking like he´s gonna explode every minute.
"Tony I lost the key!" Tc confessed.
"What??? You lost it that was my last key . . ."
"I know I know and I´m sorry. What are we gonna do now?" Tc asked guilty.
"We have to call the keyservice ~(I don´t know if that´s the right word for somebody who puts new locks into doors!!!)~. Why didn´t you tell me earlier, you could have called me, then it already would be done. I hope there is still someone working or we´re in deep sh*t."
"I´m sorry I totally forgot to call you, besides Chris thought that she has a key from you but after a very long search it appeared that she doesn´t have one."
"Okay then I´m gonna call the keyservice. Chris can I use your phone?" Tony asked Chris a bit calmed down.
"Yeah sure."
"Thanks," Said Tony, dialed a number and while he waited somebody to pick up on the other end, he asked, "Where are the kids anyway, it´s pretty quite?"
"Asleep . . . upstairs," Answered Tc fast.
Finally somebody picked up so while Tony talked to the guy on the other end Tc and Chris looked at each other relieved that somebody answered. After a couple of minutes Tony hung up and walked over to Chris and Tc.
"And?" Tc asked impatiently.
"They are coming. I´m gonna go over to the house and wait there. Bye Chris," He said and just as he wanted to walk out the door, the doorbell rang. It was Cory.
"Hi guys what´s going on here? Is everything okay? Is something wrong with Julia?" Cory asked hectic.
"Everthing is alright. It´s just that Mr Callaway here lost my last key and we can´t get into the house!" Tony answered.
"Oh and where is Julia?" Cory asked looking for her daughter.
"She´s upstairs asleep," Said Tc.
"Hey the keyservice is there, I have to go bye!" And with that Tony was gone.
An hour later the guys from the keyservice finished installing a new lock and Tc and Cory said goodbye to Chris and went with a still sleeping Julia to Tony.
"I can´t belive how something can be so expensive!" Said Tony holding the bill from the keyservice in his hands.
"Hey let me see . . . oh man . . . I´m going to pay for this of course," Said Tc.
"No Tc you don´t have to," Said Tony.
"It was my fault!"
"It could have happened to me too, so don´t worry!"
"Okay you two can stay out here and discuss who´s going to pay the bill but I´m tired and want to go to bed," Stated Cory and walked the guys.
A few hours later Tc and Tony were sitting in the livingroom talking, Cory already went to bed.
"So what did you and Chris do the whole day huh?" Tony asked curiously.
"Nothing much, we were on the playground with the kids then went home, had dinner together and talked. That´s all."
"Talked about what?" Tony asked trying to find out if Chris told Tc about the kids.
"I don´t know, about everything. It was nice talking to her," Said Tc smiling.
"Aha nice yeah?" Tony asked grinning.
"Yeah! Why are you grinning so silly?"
"No reason. So tell me you sill have feelings for her?" Tony looked straight into Tc´s face . . .
