Hello, thanks to the two people who actually reviewed. If the people from my last story haven't read this yet, I'll be sending out an alert about it soon! Onto the story!

Enjoy!

Dinner that night was quiet and awkward. Nobody said anything excluding the happy babbles and gurgling from Kyli Marie. When they had finished their dinner Zac grabbed Kyli Marie and took her upstairs to get changed while Vanessa began cleaning up the kitchen. She began washing the dishes just as Zac came in the kitchen and stood beside her.

"Vanessa you're going to have to say something at some point," Zac sighed pulling up his sleeves. Vanessa ignored him scrubbing the plates angrily. Zac reached into the sink and grabbed her hands firmly, looking up at Vanessa who looked flustered and weak.

"And you can't take your anger out on the dishes," he stated not even cracking a smile. Vanessa glared at him before pulling away from him and storming into the living room. Zac followed her in panic knowing she was about to do something stupid.

"Vanessa!" Zac shouted as she grabbed every visible picture of her father, throwing them down on the ground. Zac jumped back as glass slid across the floor.

"I hate him! He ruined everything! My life was just perfect! And he's leaving my mom?!" Vanessa screamed going on with her rampage. Zac knew something like this would happen, Vanessa didn't handle stress very well at all. Zac rushed over to her grabbing the picture frame from her trembling hands. Vanessa sobbed, weakly punching Zac in the chest muttering "I hate him, I hate him." Zac pulled her into his arms, holding her tight, rocking her back and forth. Vanessa didn't even hesitate, she fell into his arms sobbing into his shirt.

"Shhh, shh, everything will be okay. Its gonna be alright okay? I promise, it'll be alright," Zac assured her, rubbing her back, receiving a slow nod.

Vanessa woke up late the next morning to an empty bed. She slowly got up and made her way into the bathroom, she took a much-needed shower to wash away her sorrow and brushed her teeth before making her way downstairs. She walked into the kitchen and though she was in a gloomy mood, she couldn't help but smile. Zac stood at the stove, a pot atop his head, drumming on pots and pans with wooden spoons. Kyli Marie sat in her high chair banging two small yellow bowls together to the beat.

Vanessa slid into the kitchen and began dancing around. Zac smiled as he kept drumming along as she danced around in front of Kyli. They soon tired out and sat at the island, pulling Kyli's chair over to them.

"Now that is what I call a work-out," Vanessa smiled before grabbing Kyli sitting her on her lap, pulling up her shirt so she could feed her. Zac stood up and grabbed a blanket from across the counter for Vanessa to cover up. Vanessa adjusted the blanket and smiled at Zac who leaned down and kissed her softly on the lips.

"So what's for breakfast?" she questioned curiously as her husband began putting the dishes away.

"Well, I was thinking something gourmet, you know like Milk a la Cereal," Zac smiled grabbing two medium sized bowls from the cabinet.

"Oohh, my favorite!" Vanessa laughed playing along. Zac began making the bowls of cereal and Vanessa pulled Kyli Marie up from her breast. Just as she secured Kyli into her chair the phone rang. Vanessa grabbed it and hit answer without checking the caller ID.

"Hello?" Vanessa greeted politely sitting back down at the island as Zac gave her her bowl of cereal.

"Hello Vanessa," the person answered evilly. Vanessa's eyes widened in shock before pure hate filled her eyes.

"Madison, why the hell are you calling here?" Vanessa spat, wondering why the nitwit would wait all these years to call. Zac looked up at her worry filling his eyes.

"Now Vanessa, that is no way to talk to your soon-to-be stepmother," Madison hissed in a fake motherly tone.
