"So Maggie, whatcha wanna do now that your Daddy went to work?" Ryan asks, crouching down to Maggie's level.
"Um... Can we watch SpongeBob? I love him!" Maggie exclaims with a huge smile.
"YES! I love SpongeBob!" Michelle yells loudly.
Ryan rolls his eyes at the pair and waves them into the front room.
"And what shall you be doing?" Michelle questions.
"Getting a new shirt. This is all sticky." Ryan replies, rolling his eyes.
"Okie! Me and Michelle will go watch SpongeBob! Hurry up or else you'll miss it!" Maggie says as if it would be the end of the world.
"Okay, I'll hurry." Ryan says with a small smile and chuckle.
Ryan turns around and quickly makes his way into Kendall's room. When he enters he looks around taking everything in. What stands out to him the most though is a picture of Kendall and some blonde bimbo kissing.
'There goes my chance...' Ryan thinks to himself sadly.
Ryan sighs deeply and walks over to Kendall's closet taking out a black t-shirt with a silver design on it. Ryan walks out of Kendall's room and into the bathroom, a ton of thoughts running through his head.
'If he has a girlfriend, why does he need a babysitter? Is that Maggie's mother? Where is she? Are they married?' Ryan shakes his heads at the thoughts, a frown marring his face.
Ryan quickly takes of his sticky shirt and washes his chest off, quickly putting Kendall's on. As it goes over his head Ryan takes a deep breathe, breathing in Kendall's scent.
'Shit, when did I become a little school girl?' Ryan thinks to himself, making faces at the mirror.
"RYAN! Are you almost done?" Maggie yelled from outside the bathroom.
"Yes hun." Ryan replies, leaving the bathroom.
As soon as Ryan leaves the bathroom, Maggie pushes past him and slams the door shut.
"Someone had to go badly." Ryan chuckles to himself.
Ryan walks back over to Kendall's bed and looks over at the picture feeling jealousy and sadness wash over him. Right before the mixed feelings could get the best of him, the bathroom door opens up and reveals a smiling Maggie.
"Ok Ryan I'm done." Maggie says making her way over to Ryan. She noticed him looking a little sad and sat next to him looking over the same directions he was to notice he was looking at the picture of her dad and mom.
"Hey Maggie...um, is that your mommy?" Ryan asks looking down at her. She was leaning on his arm and stared at the picture, her eyes began to water a bit. Ryan quickly grabbed her and sat her on his lap, holding her close to him.
"What's wrong Maggie...?" Ryan asks rocking her a bit in his arms, now feeling like a complete idiot thinking that she was probably dead and Maggie was still grieving over her.
"She's not here with us anymore...daddy said she went on a trip, but I don't think she's coming back. She kinda scared me and I don't think she even loved me..."Maggie says, snuggling close to Ryan as she whipped the tears off her eyes.
"I'm so sorry Maggie, I didn't mean for you to cry...I'm sure she did..." Ryan says resting his head on top of hers, still holding her close while he rocked her back and forth. After about 5 minutes of complete silence Michelle sneaked her head in the doorway wondering what was taking Maggie so long.
"Oh hey, is everything ok?" Michelle asks walking over to where they were.
"Yeah everything is fine, hey Maggie do you still want to watch SpongeBob for a little while then maybe go to the park?" Ryan asks hoping to cheer her up. She looked right up at Ryan with those big green eyes of hers that will make any one's heart melt and smiled.
"Yeah, come on...can we then maybe get some ice cream later too" Maggie asks, jumping off Ryan's lap and reached out for Ryan's hand.
"Maybe, we will see. It depends on how well Michelle behaves" Ryan smirks jerking his arm away before Michelle could even swing at him.
"Strike one Michelle..."Ryan yells out before running out the room with Maggie. Michelle followed them to the living room and sat next to Maggie, reaching out to grab a hold of her foot.
"Noo please Michelle, don't tickle me!" Maggie pleads, doing her best to jerk her foot away from her before Michelle starts to tickle it.
"What's the magic word..."Michelle asks as she continues to gently tickle her foot, and Maggie giggling while doing her best to get away.
"Its cookies..."Ryan yells out from across the room.
"Cookies...cookies..." Maggie yells out in between gasps while trying to catch her breath.
"Ok...fine, but next time it won't be as easy to get away." Michelle says while helping her sit up. They watched SpongeBob for about 30 minutes, and as soon as it was over Maggie jumped off the coach and ran to her room without saying a word. Michelle and Ryan looked over and each other, wondering what she was up to as they made their way over to her room.
There they found Maggie looking threw her drawers looking for something to wear. She ended up picking out a pink tank top that had a big orange flower in the middle along with a pretty jean skirt that had the same pattern at the bottom.
"That's a very cute outfit...you have a great sense of style for a 3 year old..." Michelle says walking over to her.
"Thanks, I get it from Uncle Jamie..." Maggie says as she makes her way to the closet to grab her towel.
"Maybe our friends Ryan can learn a thing or two from Jamie don't you think Maggie?" Michelle asks following Maggie out to the bathroom while cackling
Ryan rolls his eyes before making his way out to the kitchen, and starts to clean up a bit while waiting for Michelle and Maggie to come back out. He cleaned out the bowls Maggie and Kendall were eating cereal from and set them aside, then cleaned off the counter making sure to leave it clean. When he was done with that he made his way over to the couch and sat down. A million thoughts still running threw his head about who that mystery woman was 'could it really be his wife and did she walk out on them both, or was she just the mother of his child and just stuck around for the child's sake'. He tried to shake it off but the more he thought about it, the more he wondered if something could ever happen between him and Kendall. 'There was a spark there, there is no way im imagining things in my head..he was about to kiss me' he thought to himself. He ran his hand threw his hair now feeling very frustrated with it all, and was quickly brought out of thought when Maggie ran up to him laughing hysterical.
"Ryan quick...Michelle is going to get me again...safe me..."She says before stand up on the couch and hides behind Ryan.
"Ryan...have you seen Maggie anywhere...the tickle monster is out to get her..." Michelle says making her way over to Ryan, completely acting as if she didn't see a now giggling Maggie right behind him.
"Nope...haven't seen her..."Ryan says as he leans back a bit, being careful not to squish her.
"Oh well, I guess since she's not here we won't go to the park then..." Michelle says sitting down next to Ryan and still completely ignoring Maggie.
"Noooo I'm here...I'm here...I want to go to the park" Maggie says carefully jumping out from behind Ryan.
"Wow, you're like a mini ninja..." Michelle says acting completely surprised.
"Well guess we should head to the park then ninjas." Ryan says as he grabs Maggie and puts her over his shoulder while making his way to the door.
"Ry-Ryan...put me down..." Maggie pleads while trying not to laugh. Ryan gently sets her down and continues to walk along side with her.
The 3 of them made it to the park that was about a few blocks away, stopping every 5 minutes for Maggie to sniff the flowers or to point out some random object. They played at the park for about an hour, which was mostly Ryan making sure that Michelle and Maggie didn't fall off something and telling them to be careful about 100 times. On their way back to the house they stopped for some ice cream and ate it before getting to the house. As soon as they got home Maggie ran straight to her room and played quietly with her dolls until the sugar wore off and crashed on the floor.
"I told you giving her ice cream was a bad idea..." Ryan whispers as he walks in the room with Michelle and gently picks her up without waking her while making his way to her bed.
"Nuh uh...the ice cream was your idea bozo...you're not pinning that on me..." Michelle whispers, gently tapping on Ryan on the shoulder.
"Is it bad that I want to win some brownie points with Maggie?" Ryan asks, setting Maggie down in the middle of the bed and pulls the covers over her a bit.
"So you're going to use his child as a plot to get closer to him..."Michelle asks now a bit confused as to what Ryan meant.
"No, but if he sees how great Maggie and I get along he'll definitely take that into consideration...and who knows where it will go from there." Ryan says while they both made their way out the room and walked into the living room. Maggie slept for about an hour, then spent the rest of the afternoon playing games, reading a few books and Ryan was even kind enough to let both Michelle and Maggie give him a make-over with her play make-up kit. At about 4, and hour before Kendall would be getting back Ryan decided to start on dinner. He knew he wasn't required to, but felt like it would be a nice jester seeing as how tired Kendall would be from his long day at work. While he was preparing dinner, Michelle and Maggie watched Tangled both singing along to all the songs. At about 4:50 Kendall walked in with Logan going completely unnoticed, both getting a kick out of Maggie and Michelle spinning around while singing.
"Wow...you guys make very pretty princesses..." Logan says while clapping, causing Michelle to stop dead in her tracks and looked over at Logan now completely blushing. Ryan looks over and silently chuckles.
"Daddy...uncle Logie your home." Maggie gasps in complete surprise and runs over to give her dad a hug.
"And just in time to catch your little show...Michelle, I brought Logan." Kendall says in a teasing manner while picking Maggie up in his arms.
"Yeah...I see that, Umm How much of that did you happen to catch Logan" Michelle asks practically dying of embarrassment but trying to play it off as if she knew that he was there the whole time.
"just the very end of it..."Logan smirks sweetly at her as he made his way over to where she was, pulling her along with him to sit down. Meanwhile Kendall and Maggie made their way over to the kitchen where Ryan was still finishing dinner up. Kendall sneaks right behind him and looks over his shoulder to see what he was making. Ryan quickly looks back, a bit startled by him.
"We have our own little house wife...you know you didn't have to cook right" Kendall says as he sets Maggie down.
"It's no big deal, really...Just figured it would be nice of me." Ryan says while turning around to face him. Kendall began to chuckle, leaving Ryan to feel a little self-conscious.
"Umm looks like you have something right on your lip..." Kendall laughs silently while reaching out with his hand to wipe a bit of left over gloss from Ryan's lip. The second Kendall touches his lips Ryan began to feel weak in the knees, not realizing that he let out a quiet moan escape. Kendall slowly moved his finger around his lips, enjoying how soft Ryan's lips felt agents his finger. Ryan got completely lost with his touch, feeling himself iinvoluntarily leaning in but was brought back to reality when he felt someone tugging at the bottom of his shirt.
"RyRy...are you going to stay for dinner..." Maggie asks.
"Um...no I don't think we are...we better get going..." Ryan says looking over to where Michelle and Logan were, goofing around with each other.
"Are you sure Ryan, looks like you made enough for everyone..."Kendall asks wondering to himself why Ryan was in such a hurry all of a sudden.
"No it's ok, You guys go ahead and enjoy your dinner...come on Michelle" Ryan says making his way over to the door, Kendall and Maggie followed him.
"What...soo soon?" Michelle asks a bit disappointed that they were not going to stay, knowing that they had nothing to do at home.
"Well...thanks for everything and I hope you got the hang of things." Kendall asks opening the front door for him.
"Bye Ryan...do we get to play tomorrow?" Maggie asks looking up at Ryan with her big green eyes.
"Yeah, I'll see you again tomorrow Maggie..." Ryan says, scooting down to her level to give her a hug.
"Hope she wasn't too much trouble..." Kendall says as he watched how well Maggie seems to get along with him, which brought a smile to his face.
"Not as much trouble as it was to keep up with Michelle..." Ryan laughs to himself as he lets go of Maggie and stands straight up. Michelle made her way over to the door giving Ryan an evil glare.
"I heard that Ryan...Well ok, I guess we will see you guys tomorrow...Bye Maggie..." Michelle waves to them before making her way out the door. Ryan waved nervously at both Kendall and Logan, wondering to himself what they were both thinking because their eyes were glued on him
Just as Ryan was about to walk out the door, he stopped when Maggie yelled out for him.
"Ry-Ryan wait..." Maggie yelled out as she made her way over to him with a little bag filled with the cookies they had made the day before.
"Oh thank you darling...that was super sweet of you to remember..." Ryan says as he took the bag from Maggie.
"You're welcome...buh bye..." Maggie says as she waves to him. Kendall took a few extra seconds to watch him walk to his car before closing the door, not quite sure why he was smiling. He was not sure what he was feeling exactly but whatever it was, he definitely has not felt this way in a long time.
