Marvin's Room

Rachel used her keycard to get back into their hotel room. Inside she found her two sons sitting on the couch watching television. Fletcher was holding Riley who was more quiet than ever focused on the cartoons.

"Hey guys" she said almost whispering not to interrupt the mood

"Hi mom" Fletcher said as Rachel went over and gave him a kiss and then Riley one too.

"Hey baby" she told her youngest soon taking him off of Fletcher's lap

"What are you guys up to?"

"Nothing we just woke up"

"Where is dad?"

"Still sleeping. How was rehearsal?"

"It went great. Do you guys wanna go and hang out for the rest of the day?"

"Yeah"

"Alright take your brother and go get dressed. I will get out of these clothes and then we can go"

Fletcher took his brother into their room and Rachel went into her room to see Frank.

"Aw he looks so cute!" she said smiling. She decided to let him sleep and she would leave a note for him saying where they were going. After everyone got ready the three of them left and headed to their car waiting outside for them.

"Where are we going mom?" Fletcher asked in the car

"Were going get lunch and then we can go out for ice cream. Tonight dad and I are taking you guys to the carnival!"

"Cool, I just hope there isn't any baby rides"

"I'm sure there are cool rides over there too"

"Uh oh looks like we have company" Fletcher was looking at car following them, it was the paps so Rachel told the driver where to go in order to lose them. Frank gave her a few tips and tricks on how to avoid them.

Back at the hotel Frank was still sleeping, even smiling while he slept. The dream was getting good and it didn't seem like it was ever going to end.

Frank was sitting back on the couch with his kids anticipating Rachel's return from his bed room. When she came down she was wearing one of his grey jogging pants and a black t-shirt. Frank thought she looked great wearing his clothes, made her seem like she was right at home.

"I hope what I chose is alright" she said coming to meet them

"No Rachel that's fine" he said trying not to stare at her body too hard

"You mind if I put my clothes to wash?" she asked

"Yeah go ahead"

"Would you like me to put some clothes washing for you too?"

"If you want to" he said, these two really didn't know what to say to each other or how to act. It was awkward. Rachel left the living room as Riley was just noticing that she was back

"Daddy I thought mommy left?"

"The weather is too bad so she came back" he waited a moment "Hey where is Grant?" Frank was wondering why Rachel hadn't mentioned his whereabouts

"He left" Riley told his father going back to watching tv now that he got his answer. Frank thought for a few seconds and then he got up and went meet Rachel.

"Hey" Frank said going into the laundry room

"Hey what's wrong?" she asked

"Nothing just came to see if you needed help"

"Frank I still remember how to do this yeah"

"I know but I was just trying to…"

"You were trying to what?" she asked

"Nothing it's ok, you've got this so I will make my exit"

"Am I washing Beth's clothes too?" she teased

"So where is Grant?" he ignored

"He left early this morning, he had to make an emergency trip to Nevada he'll be back tomorrow night or Tuesday. I need to call him too to make sure he made it there alright" Rachel had started putting her clothes and some of Frank's clothes in the washer

"Yeah I'm sure he did." Frank rolled his eyes

"We were supposed to go meet with the priest for marriage counseling today too"

"Wow you guys are seeing one already, isn't that a bad sign?"

"He is just going to give us advice and it's for Grant and I to make sure we are on the same page with everything."

"But your not on the same page with each other"

"Frank"

"Alright I will stop, I'm going upstairs to take a shower." Frank left and went back to check on the kids, then he went take his shower.

A little while later Rachel and the kids were still watching tv and she had made them some popcorn. Frank was still showering in the bathroom when the doorbell rung. Rachel wasn't sure if she should answer it, but she did it anyway.

She opened the door to find a blond haired looking woman there. She appeared to be in her early thirties and was very beautiful. She should have known that this would be Frank's type.

"Hello can I help you?" said Rachel

"Oh hi I'm sorry I must have the wrong house" the woman told her

"Who are you looking for?"

"Derek Farmer's house, I could have sworn this was where he lived. It was quite dark when I came"

"Yeah this is it" Rachel said ushering her in "He is in the shower but you can come in and wait if you'd like"

"Um okay" the woman went in

"You must be Beth" Rachel said

"Yeah I'm sorry Beth Venture. You know who you look like?"

"Who?"

"Rachel Marron, you look exactly like her"

"I get that a lot" Rachel couldn't believe how many times she has been able to fool people. If she isn't wearing a gown and is just in regular street clothes, people get duped.

Frank had just come out of the bathroom and was walking down the stairs when he heard two women talking. He hurried down to see what was going on and found Rachel and Beth together.

"Oh hey Derek" Rachel said emphasizing the "Derek" "Beth is here!"

"Hey Beth what are you doing here?" he asked going to stand by Rachel

"Well I just stopped by to pick up my things I left here" she said all of a sudden nervous

"Oh your bra and panties?" Rachel said butting in and Frank side eyed her "Don't worry we have it right here for you" Rachel left to go get Beth's things

"I am so embarrassed! You are a jackass, I can't believe you did this to me, to her"

"What do you mean?" Frank said clueless to what she was talking about

"I didn't know you were married!"

"Wait a minute hold up Beth…" he was fixing to explain the situation to her but then Rachel returned

"Here you go Beth, and thank you for filling in for me while I was gone. I love having an open relationship, it makes ours so much better! Right honey?"

"Honey?"

"You two have an open relationship" Beth asked

"Yeah, were even into threesomes"

Frank put his hands on his face, he could not believe what Rachel was doing

"Look at her Derek she is the perfect candidate for our sex tape!"

"I think I'm going to go now" Beth said and hurried away from them. Rachel closed the door after that.

"That was fun!"

"I can't believe you just did that" Frank said to her

"I didn't know you were into young blonds Frank!"

"We had plans to get together later this week!"

"What happened to Giada, Frank?"

"She and I are still talking" Frank started to walk to the kitchen and Rachel followed

"Since when have you started juggling women?"

"After we divorced. Are you purposely trying to ruin my sex life?" he asked

"Well your trying to break Grant and I up"

"I am not, well not that much"

"Then why do you keep bringing up our past?"

"Because you and I are not finished Rachel and you know that!"

Just then Riley came in with his sister wanting something to drink

"Mommy were thirsty" Riley said. Frank went to the refrigerator pulled out the apple juice and Rachel grabbed their cups from the cabinet. "Can we drink it in the living room?" he asked

"Yes but just don't spill" Rachel told them. After the two got what they wanted they went back to watching tv and Frank and Rachel were left in the kitchen.

"Rachel I'm sorry if this is bringing a lot on you, but I have to. I can't stand it anymore I have to at least try to get you back."

"Frank I don't want to talk about it right now" she said walking away

"Rachel…"

Frank retreated back to the living room with his children. The weather was still bad and it was almost the evening time. Rachel went to one of the guest bedrooms and called Grant in Vegas.

"So where are you?"

"I'm at Frank's house with the kids. The weather was too bad to go back home so I decided to stay and hang out with them."

"Alright good I rather you be safe with them than by yourself at home alone."

"How are things up there?" she asked

"Crazy right after I arrived I went to the emergency meeting. Were taking a break right now so I am going to go get something to eat. What do you think I should have?"

"What are you craving?"

"You"

"I'm talking about food, not sex"

"So I should get my mind off of all the things I want to do to you once I get back?"

"Yeah you should"

"Alright I'll try, I gotta go now. I love you Rachel"

"I love you too" she hung up the phone. Now those words didn't feel right to Rachel

Later everyone was eating the pizza that Frank had baked. They were all at the table laughing and clowning around. Frank felt like he had his family back again, and since the weather was still horrible Rachel was spending the night there.

"Daddy we went to the Kart Ranch the other day" Riley said

"What's that?" said Frank

" It's a new place they built last year for kids. It's like Chuckee Cheese except you can do outdoor activities too." Rachel told him

"We went on the bumper cars, played games, and… mommy what was the one where you had to hit the ball in the hole?"

"Mini golf baby"

"Yeah and me and Grant beat mommy and Fletcher racing the go karts! Sister had to ride with Mommy because she was too small"

"We had lot's of fun daddy!" his daughter said

"Grant took you guys there" Frank asked a little bit jealous

"Yeah!" said Riley and Frank looked at Rachel

"Grant's a good replacement for me isn't he?"

"Frank!" Rachel said

"What does that mean daddy?" said Riley

"It's nothing son. You guys finished eating?"

"Yes" Riley said

"I want another piece" her daughter told her

"Honey you've already had two slices, time to pack it in"

"Aw man"

"Time for bed anyway, say goodnight to daddy"

"Goodnight guys" Frank said as the kids went to hug him

"Goodnight" Riley said

"Goodnight daddy I love you" his daughter told him

"I love you both"

Rachel went with the kids to their room and Frank finished eating his pizza. He and Rachel were going to be the only ones up in the house. He had to try and convince her to make their family whole again. Being here with them in this house has brought back memories of good times in their relationship. He missed them so much and it's now or never for him to make a move.

Back in the room Rachel was tucking her children into bed

"Mommy are you staying with us tonight?" asked Riley

"Yeah baby, but tomorrow were all going back home"

"Is daddy coming too?"

"No baby"

"Why can't he?"

"Because he doesn't live with us anymore remember."

"But I miss daddy"

"I know baby, but you can spend as much time as you want with him until he leaves next month. Come on time to close those eyes and fall asleep"

"Sing to us momma!" her daughter said

Frank was taking out the dishes that Rachel had put in earlier and was saving them. He heard Rachel starting to sing to their children and he stopped and listened. That voice was memorizing, it gave him goose bumps, and made him smile. Rachel finished the her little tune that always put them to sleep, she made sure they were sleeping before she left.

"That was beautiful Rachel" Frank said when she got into the kitchen

"You heard me?"

"Yeah"

"They ask me every now and then, it puts them right to sleep"

"In a good way I hope"

"Yeah in a good way. You know the kids really miss you Frank" she said wiping the table now

"I thought about it"

"So what is stopping you?"

"Everything"

"What do you mean everything?"

"Rachel I love you and I miss you, I miss our family and I want you back in my life. I know I sound like a broken record but it's the truth. I don't know what more to say than I already have. My life means nothing if I can't have you. Please Rachel I am begging you give us another chance please"

"Frank" she said going back down this road again with him

"Just tell me now while there is no one here to interrupt us, tell me that you would be willing to try again with me"

"I really don't know how to answer that

"You know what, never mind what I just said. Goodnight I'm going to bed" he left her there in the kitchen. Rachel stood in her spot for a moment thinking, after a moment she put the dish towel down and turned off the lights in the house. After making sure the house was locked when went to meet Frank in his bedroom. He opened the door expecting to hear a lecture from her but he didn't. Instead she kissed him

Rachel was giving into her feelings and the temptation and kissed him back. She wasn't going to stop herself this time. Frank closed the door while his lips were still attached to hers and they moved to the bed. He laid her down and got on top to continue what they were doing.

"Mother please control your child" Fletcher said watching Riley throw a fit over having to leave the kid's restaurant. He was having so much fun jumping around in the fun jump with plastic balls in them, until his mother came to get him out.

"Riley stand up straight and walk!" Rachel was trying to chastise her son

"No!" he told her

"Riley it's time to go, please get up!" instead Riley got up and ran back into the restaurant but Fletcher caught him and brought him back. People were watching Rachel struggle with her son, she was ready to take him somewhere and give him a spanking. Rachel lifted her son and carried him back to the car as he screamed and hollered.

Frank woke up to his son's crying and screaming and got up to see what was the matter

"Hey what's going on?" he asked as going into the living room

"Your son is working on my nerves!"

"How come he's my son when he is acting up?"

"I'm going lie down for a few minutes" Fletcher said walking past him to his bedroom

"Here take him before I wipe his little behind" Rachel said giving a crying Riley to Frank

"Ok, hey guess what happened in my dream!" Frank said happily remembering now what was going on before he was awakened.

"I don't care I just want to relax for a little while" she said shutting their bedroom door
