Chapter Eleven

Jenny sat in the fan box flipping between pouting and happiness.
Phoenix and Sawyer sat on the floor eating the hot dog and tater tots in front of them. All three waiting for the game to start.

The door opened and Jenny turnied in her seat and saw Lucas in the doorway.

"Uncle Lucas!!!" She got up and began to run to him. But she stopped in her tracks as she caught sigt of who was standing with him.

"Oh, you're here." Jenny did her best to glare and surprised both Brooke and Lucas.

Nolan came and caught sight of the two boys and the three year old tottered over.

Jenny looked to Lucas, "Is Aunt Haley coming?"

"No, she decided she needed to rest. I've got to get back to the locer room. You behave for Brooke, alright, Jenny girl?"

She shrugged and he turned to Brooke, "Have a good time."

Brooke smiled as Lucas left and the door closed.

Jenny turned around and went to brood in the corner near the glass and close enough to the sound system she could ignore everyone else.

Brooke looked at the little girl's back and sighed, wondering what could change the little girls attitude towards her.

Thankfully, the game went by quickly and the tension between the two females in the room would soon be over. But as Brooke led the five towards the locker room with help from another players wife. Lucas and Nathan came rushing towards them, "Brooke!" Lucas came right to her, "This is asking alot but could you watch them kids for a bit--Mike will drive you to my place, okay? Haley went into labor, she's somewhat early."

Brooke looked at the two guys, "Sure what are waiting for, go, GO."
