Hey Please R&R:). Oh just to let you know Lucy's hair is reddish/brown
(kind of like in season five).I like it better than her blond hair.It's ok
but I'm not a big fan of it...
Annie was making dinner in the kitchen so Eric, Lucy, Ray and Jamie went in the front door.Lucy and her kids quietly walked into the living room.
E:I want to surprise your mom so give me one sec and I'll come and get you.
Eric walked into the kitchen giving his wife a kiss.
A:How was your day?
E:Oh, umm well very good actually.
A:Really, what happened?
E:Well, let me give you my surprise and you'll know why.
A:Surprise?
E:Yeah, so close your eyes and no peeking. With Annie's eyes closed Eric led Lucy (Ray and Jamie waited in the living room until after) into the kitchen.
E:Ok, you can open them. As soon as Annie opened her eyes she jumped on her daughter, hugging her.
A:Oh my god, my baby.Luce I'm so sorry for everything (Annie apologized through sobs).
L:It's fine mom.And I'm also sorry about how I acted.
A:So where have you been these past 8 years?What's been going on in your life?How long are you staying?Don't skip anything. Annie led her daughter over to the kitchen table. A:Do you want anything to drink?Eat?Of course you do, you must have had to travel here.
L:I'm fine mom, really.
E:Actually, there's more to the surprise.
A:(Confused)More? (thinking what else could there be).
E:Let me go get them...oops..Oh well you'll see in a second. Eric returned in a few seconds leading the girls over to Annie. Jamie ran into her mother's arms and buried her face in her chest.
A:Who's this? (she warmly questioned Jamie)And this? (motioning towards Ray).
L:These are your grand daughters.Jamie's the one clinging onto me, and the oldest right here is Ray.Jamie you can let go now.
A:My gra-grand daughters?You have kids?Aw Luce I can't believe I missed this much of your life because I acted so stupid.And their lives too.
L:That's all forgotten.We can restart now.Which I'm kind of doing too.I left Jimmy and I'm moving here to get a fresh start.
A:You're moving here!This is going to be perfect.Wait, why did you leave him?Did he hurt you/If he did I'll...
L:No mom, he didn't hurt me.Well not physically.I'll tell you more about it later, not in front of them (whispers to Annie).Girls, this is your grandma. At this Jamie looked up looking happy.
J:I have a grandma too?!
L:Yeah.
A:Come here sweetie. Jamie jumped onto Annie like she did Eric.Annie brought Ray into the hug and her heart finally seemed to be full, as her daughter was now home.
That night Annie called Mary and her husband Ben (yup Ben Kinkirk, and yes his brother is Kevin) and their two kids Cassie and Lyndsey over for dinner.Mary couldn't believe her sister, who also was her best friend and her secret keeper, was finally home.And she also had 2 nieces.The kids finding out they had cousins, were really excited and began to run around the house.By the time they were finally asleep it was well past midnight.Being really tired Lucy promised Mary that they would have a girls night to catch up.Saying their good byes Mary and her family left.Ray and Jamie were given Lucy and Mary's old room on the middle floor and Lucy went upstairs to sleep with Ruthie in the attic for the night.
The next morning Lucy woke up early to shower.It was a Saturday and she found her girls in the living room watching tv.She went into the kitchen that smelled like an assortment of different foods.Annie had eggs, waffles, bacon, toast and everything else cooking.Annie only cooked all these different foods when she was in a really good mood.
A:Hi sweetie.Have a good sleep?
L:Yeah, I didn't have to wake up early and go to work.
A:I don't really remember that feeling, but sleeping in is definitley good.The girls are in the living room watching tv, I told them I'd make them breakfast.
L:They didn't ask you to make all of this did they?
A:No, I'm just in a really happy.So what's your plans for today?
L:Well, I wanted to go look for a job right after breakfast because the sooner I have the one the better.Then I thought I'd take the girls downtown to show them around.
A:Sounds fun.You know you're welcome to stay here as long as you want.Wait maybe a year to get back on your feet.Expences won't be as big.
L:Well I don't know about a year, but I do want to get back on my feet and get the girls in school.Start getting on track, steering my and Jamie and Ray's lives in the right direction.
A:Well you're always allowed to stay here as long as you want.I need to get to know my grand daughters and me and you have a lot to make up for too.
L:Since I am going to stay here for a while I need to know how much for rent and everything else you want a month.
A:Don't be silly.We don't want anything.Save your money.
L:No mom I wouldn't feel right.How does half the rent sound?
A:No of course not.If you insist on paying something 100 dollars a month will be fine.For food and those kinds of things.And I don't want any more arguing because that's as much as I'll take, not a penny more.
L:Hehe.Well ok.But if you ever need more tell me.
