Rachel didn't wake up from her nap until dinner time. She walked to the kitchen and Jed was fixing dinner.

"I hope you like lasagna", he told her.

"Yes, I love it. Mr. Chandler, can I ask you something?"

"You can call me Jed, and yes."

"Does Tom cook?"

Jed started smiling. "He cooks, yes, but is it good? Good lord, no. He can barely boil an egg."

Rachel started laughing and Tom came in.

"What's so funny?", he asked them.

"Your cooking skills", Jed told him.

Rachel started laughing and Tom rolled his eyes. He called his children downstairs for dinner. They ate dinner and chatted about various things.

After dinner, Ashley rushed up the stairs and came back quickly. She had "Monopoly" in her hands.

"Who wants to play?", she asked everyone with excitement in her voice.

"I'm in", Sam said. "Rachel, will you play with us?"

"Only if your father plays", she said as she looked at Tom and began to smile.

"Fine, I'll play", Tom said. "What about you, dad?"

"No I'll pass", Jed said. "I'm not a big fan of Monopoly, never was. I have to clean up the kitchen anyway."

They all got the pieces and the board set up.

Tom grabbed the ship game piece.

"What a coincidence", Rachel joked.

"What? I'm always the ship."

"Of course you are", she said.

Rachel picked the hat game piece. Ashley and Sam started to argue over which game piece they would use.

"I want the dog!" Sam yelled.

"No! I'm using it!", Ashley screamed back.

"Guys, you're already arguing and we haven't even started playing yet", Tom complained.

It was Rachel's turn to make them compromise. "Each of you pick a number between one and ten and whoever gets closest to the number I'm thinking of, will get the dog. Whoever doesn't get it this time, will use it next time."

Sam said "Eight" and Ashley said "Two".

"The number I was thinking of was nine, so Sam, you get to use it this time. Ashley, you get it next time."

Ashley nodded her head and picked another game piece.

Tom was amazed of how good Rachel was with his children. If that had been him doing that, they would have went on and on about how it wasn't fair. With Rachel, they always listened to her and stopped arguing when she was around.

Tom ended up being the banker, and the whole time, Rachel referred to him as "Banker Chandler".

Eventually it was just Tom and Rachel playing; both Ashley and Sam went bankrupt. Since they weren't in the game, the two children ran off to get occupied with something else.

Rachel rolled her dice and landed on the "Community Chest" square and picked up the yellow card.

"Second prize in a beauty contest, collect ten dollars", she read. "Banker Chandler, can you hand me ten dollars?", she asked him.

Instead of handing her ten dollars, he handed her twenty.

Rachel had a puzzled look on her face. "Tom, it's only supposed to be ten, not twenty."

"You deserve the twenty", Tom told her. "You should have got first prize", he said then winked.

Rachel's eyes widened. Oh god, was he flirting with her? It sure seemed like it, especially if he winked at her. She told herself that he was only kidding, but what if he really wasn't?

"That's not how it works", she said. "It's only a game."

"I don't care how it works. I'm the banker, so I say who gets what", he told her.

"You can't be serious", she told him. Rachel looked at him and he wasn't smiling at all; he was serious.

"Oh", she said. "You really are serious." Tom looked at her and nodded his head and she looked back.

They did this for about a minute or so; just staring at one another.

Rachel was about to ask just what the hell was going on until Ashley yelled "Rachel, can you read us our story? We're ready for bed."

"I better go and read to them", she told Tom. "I guess that means you win."

"No, you do", Tom told her. "I'm the banker, remember?"

"Okay, fine", Rachel said while laughing.

She went up to read to the children, and after that, she went to sleep, confused about what was going on between her and Thomas Chandler.
