Hey Patty what are you doing? asked a frustrated Kevin. Lucy had left early that morning and she hadn't said goodbye. They had gotten in a fight and he didn't even know what it was about. He called into work and asked if he could come in late. He had to dedicate his morning to making that night special. If there was anything he knew about Lucy it was that she loved suprises, and he was gonna give her one.

I'm about to take the kids to daycare and than I am going for a counciling session. Hopefully I get a Starbucks soon before I go crazy!

Would it be a weird request for me to ask you to stay at the Camden's tonight? Lucy and I are in a fight and I really want to make tonight special.

Sure no problem but tonight Lucy is staying at the Camden's. She told me she just wants to be away from you for a couple of days.

In that case please stay here! I will need some company. I am gonna be home late tonight though because I have to go talk to Lucy.

MEANWHILE BACK AT THE CAMDEN'S
Annie yelled up the stairs. Annie was so excited that he was in Glenoak. Especially with such good news. Annie planned to break the news to all of the kids that night and Matt would tell the family his news too.

Yah mom? Matt yelled down the stairs. He was shortly followed by Ruthie, Sam and David. Ruthie was telling me how she broke her thumb.

It's really quite depressing! I tripped during school and it swole up so I went to the doctor and found out that it was fractured. Boring huh? Ruthie giggled.

Yah whatever. Mom can I have some coffee? Sam laughed.

First of all I was NOT talking to you and second of all coffee? Mom you are not letting him have coffee are you? I cannot even have coffee. I mean it would be so uncalled for and way unfair! I would be so mad at- Ruthie yelled at a very fast pace.

RUTHIE! Slow down! Mom will not let him have coffee. Get over it and get on with your life! Sam, no taunting or interupting your sister. Why don't you both sit down and have your breakfeast in a calm matter. I am going to take you all to school because today mom and Ruthie need a break. Matt ordered.

Woa! My baby is really grown up. He's starting to sound like me. Now everyone listen to what Matt says because he has much wisdom and tips. Annie said, amazed at her sons maturity.

BACK AT THE GLENOAK COMMUNITY CHURCH
Dad, have you ever gotten so fed up with mom that you feel like your gonna burst? Like you just don't want to tell her anything. You just want to shut her out and come back to her later? Lucy asked her father worridly.

Of course. Everyone has those days. Was there something that triggered it?

Well there is something I don't want to tell him, but I don't really want to talk to you about it. I kinda wanna talk to mom! Is that ok? I feel like such a jerk for bringing you in and taking you out it's just a girl thing. Lucy cried to her dad.

No problem say no more. We all have those times and your mom will help you get through it.

Dad can I sleepover tonight. I really don't want to talk to Kevin right now. I need to talk to mom first.

Yah that's fine.

If he comes to the door please tell him that I do not want to talk to him.

Sure Lucy but if you want to stay tommorow, it's fine but I will not tell him to leave tommorow. It will be way to akward on the fishing trip that he, Simon, Matt, and I are going on. Tell him soon please.

What fishing trip? The yearly one? He didn't even tell me about it! That jerk!

Lucy, maybe you should go home right now and talk to your mom before you do something that you regret.

No problem, I have plenty to vent. As Lucy walks out she runs into Kevin.

Hey Luce. You forgot your lunch on the counter.Kevin said sweetly.

Thanks. Bye. LEAVE ME ALONE! Lucy yelled. She ran out the door and slammed it in Kevin's face. As she walked out Kevin went to Eric's office.

Dad? Can we talk? It's really imporant. It's about Lucy and I. I need to tell her something but I just cannot say it. Kevin said in a worried tone.
