Happy August everyone! And the work explosion has happened so I will try and keep parts coming but bare with me. Just to say some of my fics get updated weekly and others every two weeks because some fics I can write easier than other and the ones I struggle with I want to make sure they're the best they can be. Big thanks for reading this and to Jo82, SallyRally, JaneAndMaura05, Jamacian, Vbbneighbor, Sweetkid45, Pink Lady and Rainbow for the reviews.

Lots of Love,

A New Family, a New Future-Part 19:

Louisa had arrived at Frost and Frankie's and was surprised to find that it hadn't changed much from Jane's days at the apartment.

"One good thing is we don't have to explain where things are," Frankie said, "and you can do whatever you like here. There's no parents here to tell you what to do."

"Are you trying to win the coolest uncle awards?" Louisa smirked.

"Maybe," Frost said innocently.

"You so are," Louisa said before flopping down into a chair and watching them, "well does that mean pizza for tea?" she asked.

"Yes it does, nachos too if you want," Frost said.

"And soda," Frankie added.

"I'm game for that. Please tell me you have games that I can play on that games console of yours," Louisa said.

Of course this had sent the two into a panic and they hurried to have a look at their games and found some that they could play with Louisa. The one thing they had been warned about was no fire, guns or violence and they knew exactly why that rule was in place.

Louisa had burst out laughing as she saw the two men panic,

"And you're part of the team keeping this city safe. We don't stand a chance." Frankie smirked before he launched a tickle attack on the teenager and she wiggled and giggled as she tried to get free.

"Alright!" Frost said, "I don't know about you guys but I feel like ordering. We can have anything," he said.

Soon there were orders being placed for pizza, Indian and Chinese as the three decided that they all wanted something different.

"Alright we can play MarioKart whilst we wait and then we can stick a movie on whilst we eat," Frankie said.

"On come on Lou! That's not fair!" Frost moaned as he was hit with a red shell, "now Uncle Frankie has overtaken me too!"

"Someone's whining," Louisa said as she took the lead with Frankie acting as a rear buffer.

"How did you get so good?" Frankie asked.

"Cailin and Jane of course," Louisa said before she was hit with a shell.

"That is what you call revenge," Frost said before Louisa just about managed to cross the line in first place before excusing herself to the toilet.

"What are you doing?" Frankie hissed, "Jane said to let her win."

"Maura said no easily," Frost whispered, "that wasn't easy but she won," he said before the buzzer sounded and Frankie went and gave permission for the delivery person to bring the food up to them.

Once Louisa emerged from the bathroom she found their feast spread out in the kitchen and she smiled before being told to help herself to what she wanted first and then to go and sit down. She grabbed a bit of everything before she went and sat down. Of course she had chosen a Disney movie. It was about a figure skater that had to join a hockey team to get a scholarship.

The men had raised their eyebrows when she had informed them of the plot but the men had also remembered that to stop Louisa asking questions they needed to let her have what she wanted on. She had even managed to convince them with the old it's got ice hockey in it. Of course girls' or boys' ice hockey didn't matter to them; it was still ice hockey.

Frost was keeping an eye on Louisa but she seemed absorbed in her food and the movie. It was one of her favourites and the idea of getting MarioKart back out disappeared as he spotted the other DVDs that the teenager had brought. Another figure skating movie by the looks of things. He moved without disturbing Louisa and had a look at the DVDs. The only one he didn't like the sounds of was the figure skating one but he'd put up with it for Louisa as he knew it would mean a lot to her.

He went and grabbed the rest of the food and placed some more in a container and passed it to Louisa. She was lost in the movie despite the fact that she had seen it too many times to count. He shook his head as he saw Frankie actually watching the movie as well and he poked him before getting playfully thumped on the arm.

It wasn't long after that that the first movie ended and Louisa quickly stuck the second one on before anyone had the chance to protest. She just rolled her eyes when she heard Frankie groan at the fact it was another movie about twirl girls before Frost burst out laughing as Louisa glared at him.

"Nothing against you of course. I'm sure you're miles better than them," he said before Louisa began to watch the movie again.

Frankie's phone rang a while later and he slipped away to answer it.

"She's fine Jane, none the wiser but Frost and I are being subjected to figure skating movies," Frankie said.

"Well you only have it for tonight. Thanks for this again," Jane said, "we'll get her in the morning." The brother and sister conversed for another few minutes before Frankie slipped back into his seat and smiled as he saw Louisa enjoying herself.

Eventually Louisa fell asleep and Frankie carried her through to the spare room and then he and Frost began to have a quiet lads night knowing Louisa was safely asleep and Jane and Maura had done what they needed to and Louisa was none the wiser.
