SATURDAY MORNING..

Saturday morning came quickly, though the night felt long and blissfully never ending. Judy Fabray had woken up 15 minutes ago. The sight around her making her heart fill with warmth. She had purposely just laid still on her corner of the large couch, reveling in the quiet calm house.

Watching every one especially, her children sleeping peacefully. It felt otherworldly, to be honest. Judy couldn't help but wonder if this is how normal families were. If this was every ones else's Saturday mornings but her own households. She glanced around her once again.

On the love seat were Charlie and Skyler huddled together snuggling close, content and sound asleep. Sam was on the recliner curled into himself looking every bit like an adoring child.

Shelby was at the other end of the large couch also curled into herself, with that adorable, infuriating pout that could get Judy to agree to anything good or bad. Usually, it just got her into more trouble, though.

Fun times, so she can't complain. Some of her most daring and fun moments were with Shelby and she's happy she got to experience them. The only one missing from the group was her Quinnie.

The blonde mother stood up and stretched quietly. She felt renewed. It was the first time in years that she had gone to bed without crying or full of fear not to mention pain. It felt odd but so amazing.

Judy began her search for her daughter. She checked the entire lower level than ascended the stairs quietly, going from room to room. There was only one room left. Though she knew she might cause an issue venturing into Rachel's room. Her urge to know where her daughter was and to be assured that she is safe, won out.

Judy slowly opened the door quietly, poking only her head into the room but froze on the spot as chocolate troubled swirls met her calm sea blue eyes. She was captured in their intensity.

Judy felt like she had stepped back in time and a young Shelby was sat before her, in a protective manner. That should she get any closer, Judy would surely be torn to shreds.

Rachel was sat stoic in place. The light shining in from the window, casting across her dark eyes that were brewing with a hurricane of emotions. They were filled with troubled wisdom. Of life experience and anger mixed with unpredictive responses. Burdened in lost sorrowful abandonement just as Shelby's had many years ago.

The brunettes unruly hair cascading down her left shoulder because it had been pulled to the side. Her presence, you could feel was vibrating with warning. Judy broke eye contact and glanced at the bed on the floor to see a very comfortable Quinn, curled in a ball sleeping soundly.

Rachel was thrown by the woman before her. She looked like an older Quinn. Rachel felt paralyzed by it but still had enough control of herself to attack should the woman come any closer.

"I apologize. I was just looking for Quinn. I'll go now." Judy said softly with a warm apologetic smile as she backed away and shut the door soundlessly behind her. Rachel stared at the door with harden eyes, than glanced at a sleeping Quinn. She shook her head and continued her silent gaze out the window.


SKYLER AND JUDY.

Skyler sniffed the air in a half asleep daze as a new aroma that has never been in her house before, hit her nose. Her eyes blinked open. Everyone in the living room was asleep. She glanced up from her position on Charlie's chest and smiled. The blonde was so cute when she slept.

Skyler didn't want to wake her because she now knew how precious just a few hours of sleep meant to the triplets and their mother. Skyler was broken from her thoughts when the smell became stronger.

The brunette gently and quietly removed herself from the sleeping blondes arms with ease. Skyler tip toed out of the living following the scent as it become stronger as she went.

When she entered the kitchen her eyes widen in shock and awe. Her mouth salivated as she licked her lips. There in the kitchen was a quietly humming Judy. Moving about her kitchen as if she's lived there her whole life but that wasn't a big deal.

No, the big deal was the copious amounts of food all over the counters. Freshly cooked hash browns from scratch. Piles of pancakes from scratch. What she assumes to be freshly baked DONUTS from scratch if the smell in the air was anything to go by.

Freshly baked MUFFINS still cooling on a rack, from scratch. Pounds of BACON! A large bowl full of scrambled eggs with what looked like little chopped up pieces of peppers and onions.

A large bowl of sausages. Piles of freshly buttered toast looking so warm and good. A large coffee pot of coffee. Judy was in the middle of juicing an orange by hand using a hand held strainer to squeeze the oranges juice into a juice pitcher. The woman was completely in her element not having noticed Skyler, yet.

Skyler was BLOWN. THE. FUCK. AWAY! Judy turned around and jumped a little, putting her hand to her chest.

"Oh! Oh my goodness, Skyler, honey. You scared me." Judy said with a soft chuckle before her smile turned into a frown as the brunette stood frozen in place with wide eyes and her mouth agape.

"Skyler?" Judy called softly. The blonde walked closer to her and touched the brunettes bicep. Skyler jumped in surprise. Causing Judy to jump as well. "Skyler, sweetie.. Are you ok?" Judy ask in concern.

"Y-You made all this?" Was the only thing to leave Skyler's mouth. The brunette gesturing with her hand behind the older woman at all the food.

Judy looked behind her with a raised eyebrow in slight confusion. "Yes?"

"For all of us?" Skyler ask in confusion. Again Judy also looked confused. What Judy didn't know was other than her mother, being the only adult other than her fathers Hiram and Leroy. Her parents have been the only ones who have shown her kindness and what it was to be loved. She had never had that with other adults. In fact, Skyler had, had very bad experiences when it came to other adults as a child. If it wasn't for Rachel she's sure she would be up in her own room in isolation rather than trusting anything that came out of this woman's mouth.

"Well, of course, dear. Who else would I be cooking for?" Judy spoke with affection in her tone and a warm smile aimed at the brunette before her. She was slightly confused. Skyler looked hesitant and unsure if she was being genuine.

"Th-Thank you.." Skylar said quietly but you could tell there was something she wanted to say. Judy stepped closer and placed her hand on the brunettes shoulder. The brunettes eyes connected with the older blondes.

Judy could see it in Skyler's eyes. There was a storm beneath the façade of calm. There was a hidden fear the girl had mastered at hiding. Just like upstairs with Rachel. She felt like she was standing before a teenage Shelby again.

She did the only thing she could think of. She pulled Skyler in an unexpected hug as warmly as any mother could. Her voice came out so tender, soft and motherly. Skyler felt it in her heart though her body was still a little tense. The brunettes eyes misted slightly with tears.

"I know we aren't very much acquainted but I want you to know that you are every bit as much family to me as your mother and when I cook, there's always going to plate waiting just for you.." Judy said sweetly.

Skyler didn't say a word, too stunned to but Judy felt it in the hug. When Skyler squeezed her a little more and held on a little longer than she needed to.

"What's going on?" Came Sam's half asleep voice from the door way. Judy and Skyler released each other and Skyler did her best to get her tears in order. Judy smiled.

"Nothing, now! How about some breakfast?" Judy said with a large smile looking over at Skyler as she still had an arm around the girl. Judy rubbed her arm affectionately and placed in unexpected kiss to the brunettes head than ushered her and Sam to the table.

She began bringing the dishes of food from the counter to the table, so any one could have as much as they wanted. She knew her children were always prevented from having a second serving let alone get to finish their first plates. So, Judy wanted to make sure every one had enough for even thirds.

Charlie walked in looking zombie like as she rubbed her tired eyes. She woke a little more upon seeing all the food. Even when they were at home her father never let her mother cook all this and if she did it, was only enough for him or himself and a colleague.

The blonde immediately took a seat next to Skyler feeling so happy and rested her tired head on the brunette as she sighed in contentment. Skyler giggled.

The last to enter 10 minutes later just as Judy finished the oranged juice, was Shelby. The brunette came barreling in, in her pajamas looking excited and hungry. When she had woken up to the smells in her house, she knew it only meant ONE thing. Judy cooked.

Her eyes shined at all the food. The older brunette began jumping up and down and squealing like a child. All 3 children were not surprised with the woman's antics, anymore. They just laughed at her child like enthusiasm. Shelby ran to Judy engulfing her in a hug as a child would there mother or older sibling.

"Thank you!, Thank You!, Thank You!, Thank you! Please don't ever leave me again! I'll starve out in the world without you!" Shelby said dramatically and Judy giggled though her heart ached to be reminded that they had been separated unwillingly.

"Shheeelll.. Look what I made." Judy said in a teasing manner and Shelby pulled back her eyes enchanted by the plate in Judy's hand. Her eyes wide and mouth salivating. It was the only plate not on the table. It was made especially for Shelby with love.

"No way.." Shelby said in awe whisper. "For me?" Shelby ask to be sure. Judy rolled her eyes.

"Well, who the hell else would I make this for?" Judy replied with a giggle.

"Yes!" Shelby hissed with a fist thrown in the air before taking the plate eagerly. Shelby had a very unhealthy relastionship with eggs benedict. When Judy had been in a rush one morning to school. She had to pack her breakfast to go. Otherwise she would have been late to cheer practice.

When she had met up with Shelby. Shelby was confused by the name of the food never hearing of the food and refused to try it. Judy had raised that damn eyebrow threateningly and Shelby did as she was told. The rest as they say is history.

After that, anytime eggs benedict was made for Judy at home. She'd always pack it to take to school to give the entire thing to Shelby. Buying her own breakfast on the way to school.

She had promised Shelby when they were younger that she'd learn how to make it herself. So, Shelby wouldn't have to go through the obvious withdrawels she'd have when they got there own apartment together in New York. Shelby whole heartily agreed.

Every one but Judy sat down for breakfast, every one watched her with curious eyes. Not 8 minutes later did Quinn walk in looking refreshed and content with a very satisfying smile on her face.

"Morning!" Quinn said with enthusiasm. Sam and Charlie were bewildered. Their sister was never that perky but they understood because they weren't at home and there was no Russell in sight. It was just weird to see because though she was a morning person, she was always moody.

Every one smiled and returned the greeting. Judy walked up to her daughter and handed her a chair. Quinn looked absolutely confused. Every one stopped eating to stare in their own confusion.

After her encounter with Rachel. Judy felt like she understood the girl completely. She hummed to herself as she took the tray stand from the corner and gestured it to Skyler. Skyler was still confused.

Shelby watched Judy as the woman placed two plates of food and two cups one of coffee the other of orange juice on a tray, with toast and a side of grapes. Than covered it with a dish towel. Shelby smirked.

"Are you about to do, what I think your about to do?" Shelby ask. Hiding her worry. Judy looked at her with her eyes filled with mirth and a raised eyebrow. A tiny smirk on the tip of her lips.

"If you mean I'm going to bring Rachel her breakfast, than yes." Judy spoke casually. "Whether she eats it or not doesn't matter. She's needs to know she isn't forgotten." Judy said as she faced all the surprised teenagers faces and a smiling understanding Shelby's.

"You know, she hits like a hammer?" Shelby said. "Harder than I've ever slapped you." Shelby said with a twinkle in her eye. All the kids minus Quinn eyes widened at the news of Shelby hitting Judy.

"Yeah and it stings like a bitch days after." Skyler added with a shake of her head. Agreeing with her mother. The first time Rachel hit her, she knew she felt shock somewhere in there but really all she felt was the severe pain of throbbing across her face. She literally still felt it days later.

Judy smirked. "Oh please, what was it that I told you the first time you hit me? Oh that's right, you hit like a girl." Judy taunted. Shelby glowered.

"Bullshit." Shelby countered.

"No reason to get testy, I only speak the truth." Judy said with a wink.

Shelby sobered a little. "Be careful, seriously."

"If I could tame the animal in you, I'm sure I could tame the beast within your daughter." Judy said with a confident smile. "Now, come along Quinn. Skyler." Skyler's eyes widened in fear.

She knew Rachel wanted her no where near her room. Skyler swallowed thickly. Charlie rubbed her back before she stood to follow the two blondes.


JUDY, SKYLER, QUINN AND RACHEL..

As they passed through the living room, Quinn noticed a small book shelf. She scanned her eyes quickly before grabbing a book than continued on. The 3 ascended the stairs and stopped in the middle of the hallway.

Judy turned to them and gave quick strict instructions. "Even if she hits me, do not react. It will only confirm for her that her violence will keep us away. When I first went in there this morning she was sat on her desk chair. When we go in, Skyler you will place the stand in front of her first than wish her good morning calmly than step away. Quinn you than place your chair in front of the stand because you will be staying in there to have breakfast with her. Than I will take over from there. Ok?" Judy ask in a quiet voice. The teens nodded in understanding.

You could tell Skyler was terrified. The 3 made their way to the room. Judy knocked twice than opened the door calmly. Rachel's head snapped in their direction. Fury engulfed her eyes upon seeing more than just Quinn. Judy nodded at Skyler and the brunette stepped forward nervously and full of hesitation.

At seeing Skyler, Rachel cast her eyes to the window not wanting to look at her. Skyler felt her heart break. The brunette set up the stand and looked up at her sister, tears forming in her eyes but not falling.

She spoke quietly. "Good morning, Rachel.." Skyler didn't know what she expected but the disappointment she felt was heavy on her shoulders when there was no reply.

Skyler stood straight walking back to the door. Quinn took that as her cue and stepped forward placing the chair in front of the stand but didn't step back and stood in place. Judy cleared her throat and Rachel's eyes were on her instantly in anger.

"Now, Rachel I'll make this short. I've brought you and Quinn your breakfast because I know you don't want to eat in the kitchen. I'm-"

"I don't want your food." Rachel ground out.

Judy acted as if she didn't hear her. "I'm going to be-"

"Get. Out!" Rachel spoke a little louder in a growl.

Again Judy continued. "I'm going to place this tray on that stand and I am advising you not to knock it over-"

"I DON'T WANT YOUR FUCKING FOOD, LADY! NOW, GET THE FUCK OUT!" Rachel shouted as she stood up.

Judy acted unaffected still speaking only louder. "If you choose to knock the tray over. I'll just have to go down stairs prepare a new tray than come in here and clean up while your eating and trust me I can clean very slowly and we both know you don't want any of us in here. So, let's make it easier on ourselves and allow me to put the tray down and we'll be gone. How does that sound?" Judy finished.

Rachel filled with fury snapped forward and though Judy saw it coming, she stood completely still and fearless. Rachel's fist that was raised mid air was caught by the quick reflexes of strong hands.

Rachel's head whipped in the direction of the culprit her eyes ablaze with poisoned filled words ready on her tongue to strike. Feral brown eyes met pleading green. Rachel and Quinn were staring each other down.

"Please.." It was said so quietly the only reason Skyler and Judy heard it was because the room was so deathly silent you could hear a pin drop. What happened next shocked Skyler beyond comprehension and made Judy's chest fill with pride and assurance.

The stare down lasted a few seconds more before Rachel growled in frustration and snatched her arm back. She huffed in annoyance and stomped to her seat swiveling her chair to face out the window ignoring everyone.

Judy stepped forward and placed the tray in front of Rachel and spoke "By the way, Good morning, Rachel." than the older woman stood back. She smiled at Quinn cupping her face than placed a warm kiss to the blondes cheek.

Judy gently grabbed Skyler's arm and slid her own over the brunettes shoulder as she guided her out of the room, shutting the door behind walked a few feet than stopped. Skyler was going to open her mouth but Judy lifted a finger to her lips to silence her, they waited.

Quinn took a deep breath. "So, I saw this book on the book shelf in the living room and I thought I could read to you for a little while we eat." Quinn said as she took her seat. Rachel didn't respond. "Hey.." Quinn spoke softly and Rachel looked at her in annoyance. "Eat." Quinn said.

"No." Rachel replied.

"Eat." Quinn countered.

"No." Rachel spoke with an edge in her tone.

Quinn stared at her profile for a moment. "Rachel.." Quinn called and the brunette hated her treacherous body as it followed the command. Her eyes connected with Quinn's. The blonde picked up the fork holding it out to the brunette.

"Eat, please.." Quinn said eyes filled to the brim with sincerity, boring into Rachel's. The brunette stared for a moment longer before she huffed with a roll of her eyes and gritted out an aggravated "Fine." and took a bite of the bacon stubbornly before she knew it the flavors caused her hunger to flair and just like the night before. She began devouring the food uncontrolablly. Quinn smile affectionately.

"Thank you." Quinn said. Rachel gave her an sneer but continued eating her hunger taking over her completely.

Out in the hall Judy smiled and Skyler's eyes were full of tears. They heard the entire conversation. Quinn's voice rung out as she began reading to the brunette. 'Call me, Ishmael..'


BACK IN THE KITCHEN..

Shelby paced nervously. She couldn't eat knowing they were going upstairs into the lions den with no protection whatsoever. It had only been a few minutes that they had been up there when the 3 occupants in the kitchen heard the muffled shouts of Rachel.

Sheby wanted to go up but stopped herself. She knew adding her presence to mix would only make things worse. She also trusts Judy. If she could get through to Shelby when they were kids, she could get through to Rachel.. Hopefully.

Not 10 minutes did Judy and Skyler enter. Skyler was in tears. She rushed over to her mother and hugged her as she trembled. Shelby immediately filled with worry.

"Are you ok? What happened?" Shelby ask. Skyler pulled back.

"It was so insane! You should have seen Judy mom, she was so-so.." Skyler grabbled for a word to describe the woman behing her. "So fearless! She didn't get scared when Rachel went to punch her!" 3 gasps were heard as Skyler continued.

"She didn't even flinch and Quinn! My god, she reacted so quickly she caught Rachel mid swing than they just stared at each other and than.." Skyler spoke as her eyes filled with tears again.

"What?" Shelby ask.

"Quinn.. She just.. " Skyler shook her head in awe at the head cheerio as her mind reeled over what had transpired mere minutes ago. "She just spoke."

"Spoke?" Shelby ask confused.

"Yeah, She just said please.. and Rachel just obeyed it was crazy. It looked like she couldn't help but to listen." Skyler said with a smile.

"Are you serious?" Shelby said with wide disbelieveing eyes.

"Totally and when Judy and I left Judy made us wait in the hallway and-and Quinn she." Skyler spoke rapidly as her eyes filled with excitement and relief. "She got Rachel to eat.." Skyler continued to speak in awe and Shelby's eyes welled with tears, spilling over immediately at the news.

"Sh-She ate?" Shelby ask in disbelief and Skyler nodded her own tears falling. Shelby looked at Judy for confirmation. "She ate?"

"Yes." Judy replied with a smile.

Shelby pulled Skyler into a hug as relief washed over them. Tears pouring in happiness instead of it's usual sorrow. The 2 brunettes pulled apart and pulled Judy into their hug.

Charlie stood up and pulled a crying Skyler into her arms. Smiling widely. Happy for the small victory that was won that day. Sam joined in the celebration.


RACHEL AND QUINN.

Rachel burped loudly without a care, Quinn giggled. The brunette had devoured her entire plate. Quinn knew there was more food downstairs and had given half of her meal to Rachel as well because Quinn could tell the brunette was still hungry. Rachel now looked high and sedated.

Quinn shut the book and grabbed Rachel's hand. She help the brunette stand and walked her to the bed as she laid her down. The blonde laying in after her, laying a little closer than yesterday.

She opened the book again and continued reading with a smile and soft voice again. Rachel was laying on her side with her drowsy eyes scanning the blondes profile as Quinn lay on her back as she read.

Rachel wanted to feel something other than what she feeling in the moment. No matter how hard she tried the anger wouldn't come. At the moment she felt content. She felt cared for. The blondes voice soft and gentle reading to her with a relaxed presence about her made Rachel feel relaxed as well.

Rachel wanted to be mad at Quinn but couldn't. It didn't help that the more her eyes scoured the blonde the more she realized just how beautiful Quinn was.

The more amazing she was becoming in Rachel's eyes with out Rachel realizing that it was happening. The brunettes heart slowly being enchanted into the palm of the blondes hands and Rachel was powerless to stop it.

Rachel lost the battle with her body and passed out. Quinn heard Rachel's breathing even out and glanced at the brunette. She shut the book quietly and watched the brunette sleep.

She looked so peaceful. So innocent, you'd never know how angry she actually is when she's awake. Quinn was captivated by her exotic beauty. She thought Rachel had the most adorable nose.

She found her full lips to be intoxicating. Her long chestnut hair to be inviting and her complexion as valuable as gold. She wanted to touch. She had been wanting to touch for days now and it was only getting worse.

Quinn decided to let Rachel sleep and leave the room before she did something she might regret. The blonde stood up and quietly made her way out of the room. She descended the stairs and heard laughter coming from the kitchen.


IN THE KITCHEN.

As soon as Quinn entered the kitchen she was greeted by a sight she'd never thought she'd see. Everyone at the table was laughing loud and rambunctiously. Jokes were being told.

Twinkling eyes were being met and warm affectionate smiles all around. Charlie burst in loud obnoxious laughter with Skyler smiling a lazy proud smile that she was the cause of it.

Skyler spotted Quinn first, rising to her feet and rushing over embracing the surprise blonde. Quinn chuckled and hugged her back a little confused but not complaining. Shelby followed suit and soon every one at the table were a part of the hug.

"Not that I'm not happy to see you all but what's with the hugs?" Quinn ask with a smile.

"I think your a super hero in disguise." Skyler said as she pulled away to take in the blonde. Eveyone else releasing her as well.

"Excuse me?" Quinn ask with a giggle.

"You got her to eat." Judy clarified.

"Yes, and to us you that means everything. You are our hero." Shelby said as she gestured with her hands between herself and Skyler. Quinn blushed with a shy smile.

"Thank you.." Shelby said pulling her into a hug just between the 2 of them.

"You don't have to thank me. I'd do it anyway." Quinn replied.

"Hush. I'll thank you until my last breath." Shelby replied quietly, you could hear the emotion in her voice. The 2 pulled apart and smiled at each other.

"So. Uh is there still enough for one more at the table? I kinda gave Rachel pretty much all my food." Quinn said with a sheepish smile. Every one chuckled.

"Of course, let's eat." Shelby said.

Every one took their seats again. Conversation picked back up. Quinn's plate was being filled by the help of Skyler and Shelby. Other bowls being passed around for seconds and the coffee and orange glasses were being refilled.

The 3 Fabray triplets unknowingly thinking the same thing as they laughed and joked around at the table. 'Is this how a family's suppose to feel?'

They didn't know but if it is, they never wanted to return back to their lives again.


2 HOURS LATER..

After cleaning up the kitchen and doing the dishes with every one helping, it was finished quickly. The clan moved to the living room feeling stuffed and lazy. Quinn stood up and stretched.

"I'm going to check on Rachel. She fell asleep earlier pretty quickly." Quinn said with a smile.

"It could be that she had just finished eating. During pregnancy after a mother eats depending on the mother of course. They usually feel exhausted so they fall asleep."Judy said. Quinn looked thoughtful.

"That explains last night." Quinn nodded to herself.

"Wait, she ate last night, too?" Shelby ask in awe and disbelief as she stared at the blonde as if she were an Olympian goddess.

"Well.. We snuck out. I wanted to try and get her to eat so I took her to Breadstix. Ordered our food to go than we went to our spot. I had to push her a little but eventually.. yeah, she ate." Quinn answered nervously at telling that they had snuck out.

Everyone was impressed. Answering the question that today wasn't the first day Quinn had gotten her to eat.

"So, how long has she actually been eating?" Shelby ask.

"Just yesterday. I had tried before but it didn't work. Yesterday I stood my ground and she ate." Quinn said with a shrug of her shoulders.

"Wow.." Shelby said in awe.

"Your something else, kid." Shelby said with a smile. Quinn smiled bashfully embarrassed.

Just than the doorbell rang. "I'll get that." Shelby said as she stood squeezing Quinn's shoulder as she passed. Quinn headed back upstairs to check on Rachel.

"Skyler, you have a visitor." Shelby said as she entered the living room. All the air in Sam's lungs was stolen. There standing looking every bit as a beautiful as she always does was Mercedes Jones. Sam tensed.

"Oh hey, Mercedes." Skyler said as she stood up to greet the girl.

"Hey." Mercedes said with a smile and a small wave to every one else. "Sorry to drop in so early. I didn't know you had company. I could go and com-" Mercedes spoke as she readied herself to leave.

"No, it's cool what's up?" Skyler asked.

"Well, Friday during lab you said that you could help me with my science homework this weekend and since I didn't have your number to call. I thought I'd stop by and ask if today was good but like I said I could come back another time." Mercedes replied.

"Oh um.. Well, I actually I have plans with Charlie.." Skyler said apologetically.

"It's cool, girl. I understand. Don't worry about it." Mercedes said with a smile. As she began to leave. "Well, I'll see you later."

Just than a thought hit Skyler and she smirked. She had listen to Sam repeatedly talk about Mercedes and his crush on her. Maybe a little push would help him take the leap.

"Hey, wait a second. I just thought of something." Skyler said with a smile. Mercedes turned back around to face her. "I'm not the only one here good at science." Skyler said.

"Ok?" Mercedes ask confused.

"Sam's in our class, too and he's just as good as me." Skyler spoke enthusiastically.

Sam's eyes widened in shock and fear. Judy, Shelby and Charlie finally understood what was happening. Sam had a crush on Mercedes and Skyler was giving him a window.

"I'm sure he'd be more than happy to help you. Wouldn't you, Sam?" Skyler said with a smile as she clapped her hands down onto his shoulders to wake him up from his frozen stupor.

"Really?" Mercedes ask. "I don't want to be a bother." She said sweetly.

"It's no bother at all." Skyler reassured. "Right Sammy?"

"Ri-Right! Uh.. No-No trouble at all." Sam answered nervously. He felt completely embarrassed because he was still in his pajamas and his hair was a mess. Judy, Shelby and Charlie did their best to hold in their laughter.

"Thanks I really appreciate it."

"Your welcome.." Sam replied as he stared at her. The room became silent and awkward. Mercedes licked her lips.

"So.. Um were should we-"

"Oh right!" Sam spoke up as he shook his head and chuckled nervously.

"You could use the kitchen. It's just down the hall." Shelby spoke up with a smile.

"Ok, thank you." Mercedes said. She began walking towards the kitchen with Sam behind her. He looked at the women in the living room with wide terrified eyes. They all gave him thumbs up and smiles, mouthing 'Good luck'. They giggled as soon as the 2 teens were out of hearing distance.

"So, what do you two have planned today?" Judy ask.

"We're uh.. going on a picnic and Skyler's going to teach me how to ride a bike." Charlie said nervously. Judy's eyes soften at the words.

"A picnic, huh?" Shelby ask with a raised eyebrow at her daughter and a smirk planted on her face.

"Ye-Yeah. Charlie thought it'd be fun." Skyler nodded her head as she licked her lips nervously.

"Well, how about I whip you two up something so it's actually edible." Judy said with a giggle. The 2 teens flushed as they realized neither of them could cook anything.

"Thanks, mom." Charlie said sweetly.

"Yes, thank you, Judy." Skyler said.

"Do I get any lunch?" Shelby ask obnoxiously.

Judy rolled her eyes."Of course, fool. I know you'd just try and eat whatever I make them, anyway." Judy giggled.

"S'true." Shelby said nodding along at the fact.

"Ok. Well, I'm going to head home and change. I'll be back in a few." Charlie said as she stood.

"Uh.. Ok. I'll be waiting." Skyler replied. Both girls feeling the hum of excitement for their day together.

"Ok." Charlie said with a smile. Causing Skyler to smile bashfully.

The two mother's rolled their eyes simultaneously at the obvious oblivious teens.

"So, I'll see you soon?" Skyler said though they just confirmed they'd be seeing each other in a mere hour.

"Definitely." Charlie replied as they got lost each others eyes. Judy and Shelby looked at each other before Shelby spoke.

"God, the tension in here is ridiculous, don't you think, Jay?" Shelby spoke purposely loud to Judy. Judy cackled as the girls jumped in surprise forgetting that they weren't alone.

"I-I should get going." Charlie said in embarrassment.

"Yeah." Skyler replied equally as embarrassed.

"Yeah." Charlie replied as the two fumbled to get their bearings. "See you in a few." Charlie said as she rushed away.

"Ok." Skyler replied.

As soon as she saw Charlie leave she rushed to the window watching as the blonde pulled out of the driveway. When the car was out of sight, she whirled around on the two still cackling adults with fire in her eyes that halted any more of their laughter upon it's intensity. Skyler pointed her finger at her mother as she spoke.

"That wasn't funny!"

"It was a little funny." Shelby replied.

"No! It wasn't, child!" Skyler huffed as she stormed away in frustration. Judy and Shelby watched her with amused eyes. The 2 women looked at each other than burst into laughter again.
