Part 14

Melissa looked at Erica and then at Kendall and down at Kathleen. Kathleen stepped forward looking at Erica with her arms crossed over her shoulder and a glare. Reggie and Josh were having a hard time keeping their laughter back when they watched Erica Kane step back from the, 'pissed off' child. Maggie walked over with Miranda in her arms and looked at Reggie and smiled when the young man realized she was there and turned toward her and wrapped her and Miranda into a bear hug.

"ah….'an't beath!" Miranda and Maggie said. Reggie let go and Maggie moved back three steps smiling until she turned around after bumping into someone. Maggie looked behind her and was face to face with Jonathan, her eyes grew wide and unwillingly she jumped, a few feet away from him.

Jonathan saw this and looked down.

"I'm sorry Maggie." Jonathan said looking down.

Maggie looked at Jonathan and placed her hand over her heart and smiled up at Jonathan as she let a long breath out. "Hey…its okay Jonathan. Just….scared me is all." Maggie said. "Didn't mean to bump into you. I'm sorry." Maggie said.

"Its ok." Jonathan said looking up smiling as he realized Maggie wasn't mad or angry at him.

Miranda looked at Jonathan and smiled before poking Maggie and smiling. "did you just poke me?" Maggie asked pretending to be perplexed.

Miranda only nodded her head and crossed her arms over her chest giving Maggie the 'what are ya ganna do about it look'. Soon enough Miranda was out of Maggie's arms running towards Kathleen, once there she swung around Kathleen and hid behind her. The eyes of the women who had been in a conversation or answering the questions Erica had to ask looked down at Miranda and weren't surprised when Maggie came rushing over to them, lifting both Kathleen and Miranda up into her arms and spinning them around.

"Hey…put me down…" Kathleen laughed.

Maggie stopped spinning the two little girls and looked at Kathleen and did an animated double take, for the girls' sake. "Kathleen…what are you doing in there?" Maggie asked and both girls laughed.

"You picked me up!" Kathleen said as she was put down.

Maggie scratched her head. "I don't remember picking you up." Maggie said and then looked at Miranda and pointed her finger at the little girl. "But I do remember picking you up!" Maggie said and picked Miranda up into her arms again and spun her around once before she put her down to stand next to Kathleen. Maggie knew better then anyone in the room that what Kathleen and Melissa needed was comedy they needed something to laugh and be happy about.

Melissa saw Maggie's theatrics and laughed lightly and then stopped when she saw Kendall turn toward her, she changed her demeanor completely and then couldn't help it when Kathleen came charging at her.

"You think its funny!" Kathleen asked as she ran into Melissa's leg.

Melissa broke into hysterics and nodded her head. Anna looked at her mother confused but smiled and wiggled around in Melissa's arms trying to imitate her mother. Kendall looked at Maggie and then at Melissa before turning back to Maggie.

"Short stuff…I think you broke her." Kendall said as she watched her sister continue to laugh as Kathleen just stood there, and then crossed her arms huffed and walked back over to Kendall and turned her head to the right.

"Hey….I'm not as short as Greenlee!" Maggie said as she crossed her arms and looked down at the floor. Greenlee walked closer to Maggie and cleared her throat, she was at least two inches taller then Maggie. Maggie glared at Greenlee and then shook her head back and forth. "You're taller then me now because of your high heels!" Maggie said and crossed her arms and watched as Greenlee smiled nodded and messed up her hair. "Hey! Watch it!" Maggie said.

This just seemed to fuel Melissa's laugher. Erica looked at Kendall and then at Maggie as she took a few steps closer to Bianca and Kendall. "Maggie….turn her off." Erica said and that made everyone laugh.

Soon enough a young man in a cooks outfit informed them that their brunch was served. They all were in a better mood then they had been before and everyone walked toward the dinning room while the rest of the introductions were made. Melissa and Maggie shock hands, then Maggie and Josh shock hands and then Josh hugged her and Maggie gave a shy smile and walked up to Bianca and took hold of her girlfriends hands. She wasn't blind and even Melissa had pointed out while they shook hands that Josh was enjoying the view of her behind.

Once at the table they all took their seats and Maggie wasn't surprised to find she was stuck sitting next to, Josh. Maggie looked across the table and caught Melissa as she snickered and when she was caught she cleared her throat and looked down at the table. Maggie glared at Melissa for a few seconds before her attention was brought back to the little girl sitting to her right.

"Eggs and pancakes!" Miranda said smiling, she was sitting in a grown up chair with a buster seat and had her very own sippy cup and Disney plate, just like Kathleen.

"Cool…Lissa look!" Kathleen said as she sat down between Kendall and Melissa, they were on the edge of the table so Melissa had instant access to Anna.

The food was placed on the table and everyone slowly started to dish out their own food, Maggie continued to close her eyes and turn her head toward Miranda and Bianca every time Josh's leg brushed up against hers. The table was crowded yes, but not that crowded. Slowly as the meal continued small talk took over the table and as soon as everyone was almost done people turned their attention to Kendall and her guests, Maggie and Bianca, and Josh.

Maggie at the moment wished she could switch seats with Bianca but Maggie knew Erica wanted to have Bianca sitting next to her, but she also knew Josh wouldn't be able to touch her if she got up from the table and switched seats. It just really sucked that Josh was like the 'honor'ie of this whole brunch, other wise she would have slapped him ten times before stepping around his chair and slapping him another ten times for good measure.

"Well Josh….why don't you let Maggie and Melissa know what you do." Erica said as she brought her fork up to her mouth.

Josh smiled and looked at Maggie and his hand slipped to her knee. Maggie opened her mouth and looked at Josh before turning to Bianca. Bianca looked at Maggie confused, so did everyone else, except Melissa.

"Well…I'm a doctor."

"A doctor?" Maggie asked and Josh gave her a smile before nodding.

"Yes, I work at PVH hospital."

Maggie squeaked a little when Josh's hand slowly started making its way up and down her arm. Maggie dropped her napkin to her lap and grabbed his hand, she was about to put it on his lap when Miranda dropped something so she dropped Josh's hand and it landed on her thigh, which made Maggie's eyes widen. His smile grew, taking her gesture the wrong way.

"Then you must know David." Maggie said.

"Hayward, yes he was my…." Josh stopped. "…My father's cardiologist."

"Oh…" Maggie said and once again grabbed his hand and almost screamed when he leaned forward to whisper something into her ear.

"I like them feisty." Josh whispered. Maggie looked at anything but Josh for the next few minutes as Melissa asked a few questions. Maggie sighed in relief when Josh's hand left her leg and she immediately kicked Bianca's leg.

"OWW!!" Bianca said as her leg shot up and hit the table after being kicked. "OWW! Maggie what was that for!?" Bianca asked with gritted teeth. Maggie just stared into Bianca's eyes pleading with the brunette to stand up but before she was given the chance Erica interfered and so did Josh.

"Is everything alright Bianca…?" Erica asked. "….Maggie." Josh said instead of Bianca as he looked at the blonde and Maggie felt like throwing up.

"Fine." Both Bianca and Maggie said before turning back to the conversation at hand.

Speaking of hands Josh's hand was again touching Maggie only this time it was her arm and his fingers were running up and down her arm slowly. That was it; Maggie needed an exit right away. Thankfully someone at the table seemed to notice her distress signals and was showing her a way out.

Maggie looked at Melissa and saw the teenager using her napkin but using her index finger to point toward a room through the hallway. Maggie was confused but as Josh's hand moved down to her thigh that was it for her. Maggie stood up from the table, throwing her napkin to the table and stepped around her chair, Josh moving his to let her out and stepped up behind Bianca's chair. Making sure Josh's eyes were on her face and not her ass Maggie touched Bianca's shoulder. Bianca turned around to look at Maggie she was utterly confused.

"Maggie…what's going…." Bianca didn't get to finish her question.

Maggie leaned forward and placed her lips against Bianca's and smiled when she saw Josh's eyes widen and his cheeks flush when realization hit him. Pulling away Maggie stood up smiling triumphantly before she stalked into the bathroom.

Melissa's eyes grew wide when she saw Maggie kiss Bianca; she looked at Josh and saw the realization hit him. Melissa laughed out loud when she saw everyone's expression at the table. Kendall finally snapped out of the shook of seeing that actually happen at the breakfast table when Melissa started laughing. Kendall kicked Melissa and Melissa grabbed at her ankle.

"Oww…that hurt...and what?! Serves him right!" Melissa said to everyone's confusion.

"(Clear throat)…. okay well anyway. Melissa you were just telling us about you're plans." Erica said smiling as she looked at Melissa trying to get another image of Bianca being kissed by Maggie out of her mind.

Kendall took this time to interrupt. "Well, mo…." Kendall stopped and looked around the table. "…Everyone that's what I have to tell you all." Kendall said looking around the table, making sure she had the attention she needed to make this announcement.

"Okay…what is it?" Bianca asked looking at her sister.

"I'm going to be adopting Melissa and Kathleen." Kendall said dropping the bomb, now…now all she had to do was wait for the retaliation she knew was going to come with it.

TBC…..
