Chapter 7: Family Time
Stella's Apartment
There was a knock at the door.
'Sam get the door will you' Stella said
'Fine!' Sam replied
Sam opened the door to see Mac standing there.
'Hey dad' she said
'Hey Sam is you're mom in?' he asked
'Yeah. MOM!' She shouted 'its Dad'
'No need to shout Samantha' Stella replied
'Whatever' Sam said walking up the stairs to her room
'Hey.' Mac said softly
'Hey come in' she replied softly.
Stella moved out of the way to let Mac in.
'So what brings you here?' She asked
'To see Sam and…You' Mac replied
Stella thought she saw a look in his eyes that she'd seen only once in Mac and that was back in high school the night they slept together.
'Sam. Get down here.'
Sam came down the stairs
'What?' She asked
'Sit down and talk to you're dad while I make dinner okay'
'Yeah. What we having?'
'Pasta.'
'Again' Sam moaned 'Can't we have takeaway please' Sam said pouting
Mac laughed 'Come on Stel let the kid have a takeaway for once'
'See even dad agrees with me that I…I mean we should have a takeaway'
'Fine let me order a pizza then'
While Stella was on the phone ordering the pizza Sam turned to Mac and said 'You still love her don't you?'
Mac turned and looked at Sam shocked
'Oh come on I know you do. You look at like you did in the pictures I've seen'
'Sam'
'Fine I'll drop it but before I do I know she still loves you I don't think she ever stopped loving you'
Stella walked back into the living room.
'The pizza should be here in about half an hour'
'Okay' Sam and Mac said together.
Stella laughed.
'What you two been talking about then?' She asked
'Not much.' Mac replied
'I'm going to my room. Remember what told you dad.' Sam said. She then went up the stairs and to her room.
What Sam said kept going around in Mac's mind I know she still loves you I don't think she ever stopped loving you.
'Mac' Stella said pulling Mac out of his thoughts.
'Yeah'
'What did Sam say?' She asked
'Nothing you need to worry about Stel' Mac replied.
