Chapter 27: Home

The next morning Thomas heard the elevator doors open and walked over to the elevator to see who was coming in. Thomas smiled as he spotted Marina walking into the penthouse. "Marina hi," Thomas said while walking up to her. Marina smiled back at Thomas. "Thomas hi! Your dad wanted me to stop by and see how you and Sherman are," Marina explained. Thomas nodded. "Sounds like my dad," Thomas said with a chuckle looking down at the ground. Marina chuckled with Thomas. "You guys okay?" Marina asked. Thomas looked up at Marina. "Yeah I think we're okay," Thomas said crossing his arms, marina nodded. "Do want to hang out?" Thomas asked. Marina was taken by surprise. "You want me to hang out here with you guys?" Marina asked Thomas nodded. "Yeah why not," Thomas said with a smile as he walked over to the couch and sat down.

Marina puts her stuff down and sits down in a chair next to the couch. "So where's Sherman?" Marina asked. Thomas looked at her. "I think his in the bathroom," Thomas said. Marina nodded in response. Thomas took a deep breath before sitting back I the couch and taking out his phone and checking his social media. "So your dad was telling me a week ago that you have a birthday coming real soon," Marina said trying to make good conversation. Thomas then puts down his phone and looks at Marina. "Yeah in a few days now," Thomas answered. Marina nodded. "You'll be sixteen right?" Marina asked. Thomas nodded biting down his lip. Marina nodded again in response. "Sometimes I think it's a little strange having my first birthday with my dad. I mean for the last fifth teen with my mom," Thomas said looking down at the ground. Marian could tell Thomas missed his mom and this was really the first one with her. "I'm sure your dad will make it great," Marina said with a warm smile Thomas smiled back. "Yeah I think so too," Thomas replied

Peabody was going through Business phone calls after phone calls. The poor Beagle never really had time to himself or the time to call his kids. After one last phone call he threw his phone on the bed and laid down. Peabody sighed as he took off his glasses and rubbed in between his eyes. "You know you should really just go home," Mr. Foxx said from the sliding door. Peabody screamed as he jumped up from his bed. "Mason! You gave me a scare," Peabody said holding his chest. "Well now… You haven't called me Mason since I was a kitten and you were a puppy. Don't you remember the good old days when you tripped over you own ears?" Foxx said as he walked into Peabody hotel room. "Yes I do. But what do you want?" Peabody asked as Foxx said down in a chair. "Nothing. Just passing through," Foxx said leaning against his paw. Peabody sat up on his bed. "I see that. But really what do you want?" Peabody asked. Foxx smiled. "To send you home," Foxx answered as he stood up.

Peabody was a little confused by this. "What do you mean send me home?" Peabody asked. Foxx chuckled. "I noticed you're a little homesick," Foxx said crossing his arms. Peabody away from Foxx. "Yeah I've been a little homesick," Peabody confessed. Foxx smile as he nodded. "And now you're going to pack all your things and head back home to your kids," Foxx said as he started getting all of Peabody's things together. "Mason," Peabody as he rubbed the back of his neck. Foxx turned and looked at his friend. "Yes?" Foxx said with twitch of his tail. "Thomas's Sixteenth birthday is next and I wanted to know if you would come?" Peabody asked as he looked at his friend. Foxx smiled. "Of course I would love too," Foxx said with a smile. Peabody smiled back. "Splendid," Peabody replied.

Foxx helped Peabody to his plane ride home. Foxx sets all of Peabody's things down in the plane and turns to look at Peabody. "Well I guess this is it," Foxx said with a smile. "Mason I… I,,, I really wanted to say I'm sorry," Peabody said looking down from the cat. "Sorry for what?" Foxx asked. Peabody looked up at the cat and was now eye to eye. "That night you took me in and I guess I really wanted someone to blame for Eleanor leaving me that night," Peabody said looking away from Foxx. Foxx's then puts his paw on Peabody's shoulder which made Peabody look back at him. "Hey That's what friends are for," Foxx said with a smile. Peabody suddenly pulled Foxx in for a hug.

Foxx was taken by surprise by this as his tail twitched. Foxx then hugged his friend back. "Thank you," Peabody said softly. Foxx patted Peabody on the back. "You're welcome," Foxx said before the two friends broke their hug. Foxx stepped off the plane and waved goodbye. Peabody waved goodbye before closing the plane's door. Peabody down in his seat and puts on his seat belt as the plane was starting up. After a few minutes the plane had taken off and Peabody was now on his way home. Peabody took a deep breath as he sat back in his seat and closed his eyes and fell asleep.


Thomas, Marina and Sherman all down on the couch and was watching a movie until they heard the elevator doors opened. The three of them all looked towards the elevator and was surprised to see Peabody get off the elevator. "Dad? What are you doing here?" Thomas asked. Peabody smiled as he walked over to the couch. "I missed you guys and I wanted to come home," Peabody said with a smile. Everyone nodded in their response. Peabody then kissed the top of Marina's head. Marina smiled as she sat back in the couch. Peabody then looked at the clock and noticed it was only 7:26. "who's hungry?" Peabody asked. Sherman chuckled. "I am Mr. Peabody," Sherman spoke up. Peabody chuckled. "Alright Everyone do get your coats on and we'll go get a pizza" Peabody said with a smile.

Thomas and Sherman both went to their bedrooms to grab their coats while Peabody and Marina stayed in the living room. Peabody and marina looked into each other's eyes and smile. "I missed you," Peabody said in a whisper. Marina chuckled. "You've only been gone a day," Marina said with a smile. Peabody chuckled as he kissed her. "A day too long," Peabody said with another smile. Marina chuckled as she gave him another kiss. Peabody and Marina both heard both boys close their doors and start to head towards the living room. Peabody and Marina broke their kiss and watched for Thomas and Sherman. "You guys ready?" Peabody said with a smile. Thomas and Sherman walked out into the living room. " Yeah I think we are," Thomas said as he looked at Sherman. "Yep we're all good," Sherman added. Peabody nodded as he walked over to the elevator. Marina grabbed her things and followed Peabody over to the elevator. Thomas and Sherman both followed Peabody and Marina to the elevator and then they were off like a real family.
