How could Allison be out of roses? It was unheard of, right? Right. Troy had every intention of going into Allison's Flower shop and picking up three single red roses – for all of his girls – but what a surprise it was to find out she was out. He pulled into his driveway and Cassidy's smile that he saw through the garage window immediately wiped his temporary bad mood away. Latching onto the papers from the passenger seat that he would be grading this weekend for his history class, Troy headed out to the back yard where he watched his little girl light up as her mother came after her with tickle fingers.
"Daddy! Mommy, Daddy's home!" Cassidy ran across the yard in her cute pink shorts as her tiny ponytail bobbed up and down behind her.
Troy bent down and scooped the little rugrat up in his arms. "Well, hello cutie," he said and gave her a kiss on the forehead.
"Mommy! Daddy's home!" She exclaimed again as Gabriella in her own pink shorts came to stand by his side.
"I see that," she smiled and leaned up to give Troy a kiss, "Hi Daddy."
"Hello Mommy," he dragged out his 'hello' as she pulled away and giggled.
"Okay guys! G-rated crowd here!" Chad yelled from the patio.
Troy and Gabriella both weren't expecting him until later but didn't min as Cassidy squirmed out of Troy's arms. Letting her down, she raced across the yard over to her Uncle Chad and Troy turned back to Gabriella, kissing her again.
"G-rated now," she playfully reminded him.
