The next morning Natalie arrived at Frank's house at a quarter after six, fifteen minutes before she needed to be there. Tossing her stuff in the back of his pick-up she noticed that Stephen's car was parked next to it and she couldn't help but smile. After making sure she didn't leave anything in the car she locked it and headed to the front door, knocking lightly.
After a few seconds Kim answered the door, her youngest daughter tucked against her side. "They're in the kitchen." She whispered as she moved back so that Natalie could enter.
"Thanks." Setting her purse down by the door she quietly made her way back to the kitchen where she found Frank and Stephen sitting at the bar.
"Hey Natalie." Frank smiled and stood to welcome her with a hug.
"Hey." She returned his hug and smiled at Stephen over his shoulder. Pulling away she took the cup of coffee that Kim offered her. "I put my stuff in the back of the truck if that's okay?"
"Yeah its fine."
"Speaking of which, I should probably put mine back there too." Stephen said as he stood from his spot at the table, nodding at Nat as he did.
"I'll give you a hand." She set the mug down on the counter and excused herself quietly, following Stephen outside. Once they made it to Stephen's car they both stopped and turned to face each other. "I thought you weren't coming."
"I lied." He smiled slightly and reached out and grabbed her hand. "I really don't mind having to spend the weekend with you, alone, in our own tent." She blushed and he pulled her to him. "In fact, I'm actually looking forward to it now."
"What made you change your mind?" Pulling her hand free she leaned back against Frank's truck, watching as Stephen unlocked his car and pulled his bag out.
"I had a talk with Jack last night."
"Really? And what did your fourteen year old son have to say that changed your mind that no one else did?"
Smiling he tossed his bag into the bed of the pick-up, purposefully pressing his hips against her, pinning her slightly. "We'll talk about later." With that he ran his finger down her arm, causing her to shiver, and then moved away, walking back towards the door.
She stood there alone for a few minutes before Miles and Eva pulled up. Startled at the sound of the car doors closing she moved away from the truck and walked towards them. "Morning guys."
"Hey." Miles reached out and gave her a sideways hug before tossing his and Eva's bag into the back.
"Hey." She did the same to Eva and smiled when Stephen and Frank came outside.
"You guys ready to the hit the road?" Frank asked as he gave Kim a hug, placing a kiss on his daughter's head.
"Yep, as long as we stop for breakfast on the way there." Miles piped up.
"We will, now get in the pick-up." Frank teased, "You and Eva can sit in the back."
Eva smiled and grabbed Miles' hand, "Come on lover-boy, the faster we leave the sooner you get food."
They all laughed and followed the couple to the truck, Frank sliding into the driver's seat, Natalie and Stephen climbing up front with him.
"Let's get this show on the road." Miles said in between laughs, trying to control Eva's wandering hands.
"Not already, can't you two wait until we eat?" Frank whined.
"No." Came Miles' voice, followed by Eva's high pitched squeal.
