"Abby!" Charlie groaned. "How can you not find anything to do?" It had been summer vacation for over a month and Abby was constantly bugging him claiming she had nothing to do.

"I dunno." Abby said simply.

Charlie took in a deep breath, and let it out. "Abby. I have a lot to do today. I can not spend my valuable time entertaining you all day long. Why don't you call Anna?"

"I can't call Anna! She left for the Caribbean last Friday!" Abby whined.

Charlie silently cursed Anna's parents for being evil enough to take Abby's main source of entertainment away for a good fourth of the summer. "Well…Why don't you…Oh I give up! What do you want me to do?"

"Nothing."

"Nothing… How can you want nothing?" Charlie was exasperated.

"I just want someone to watch. I want to…People watch." Abby explained, trying to recall a term she had heard Charlie use at one point.

Charlie turned and squinted in Abby's direction. "People watch?"

"Yes. The term for when one… watches people. You're a person... and I wish to watch you." Abby elaborated.

"That's not how you…" He started, but then he realized, if that kept Abby entertained for her to just quietly sit and watch him, she could 'people watch' all she wanted.

"You know what Abby? That is an excellent idea. Why don't you sit at the table, and watch me do these dishes?" Charlie suggested and he pulled out a chair for her.

Abby plopped herself onto the chair, and quietly watched him fill the sink with hot water.

"Charlie?" Abby asked.

Charlie groaned, he was hoping it would take much longer before Abby decided to start questioning what he was doing. "Yes Abby?"

"How come that hot water doesn't eat you?"

Charlie choked a bit. "Eat me? Why on earth would water be eating me?"

"Well Aiden said that really hot water likes to eat people, so you should take cold baths, and you shouldn't ever stay around hot water that doesn't have vinegar in it." Abby stated matter of factly.

Charlie, unsure of how to respond decided the easiest way to end that would be to add some vinegar to the water. After he had poured a reasonable amount into the sink he continued with the dishes.

About half an hour later Abby spoke again. "Charlie?"

"Yes Abby?" He replied impatiently.

"How come pigs can't fly?" She asked curiously.

Charlie thought "Because then a whole lot of people would get stuck doing a bunch of crap they don't want to." But instead he responded, "Because they don't."

"Well that's not a very good reason." Abby stated.

"Well that's just the way it is." He said as he pulled the plug in the sink.

"WAIT!" Abby screeched.

"What?" Charlie asked as he re-plugged the drain.

"My salamander! I have to get him out!" Abby replied as she headed for the sink.

"Whoa… What salamander?" Charlie asked grabbing hold of Abby's belt loop.

"The one I put in there!" Abby said as if it should be obvious.

"Why on earth did you put a salamander in the sink!"

"Because it didn't like the bathtub."

Charlie shook his head. "Why do you even…" He changed his mind. There was no use in using logic with Abby. "Well… The salamanders gone… Maybe he's upstairs." Charlie said with fake enthusiasm.

"MAYBE HE IS!" Abby exclaimed and she scrambled up the stairs past her mother who was waddling down them, extremely slowly.

Charlie was walking out of the kitchen when he saw his sister coming down the stairs. His eyes widened and he rushed to help her.

Once Gloria was seated Charlie began signing. Are you okay? You're supposed to stay in bed.

I know… I just…needed to move. Gloria Replied My room was getting very uncomfortable.

Do you think… Charlie started but stopped when his sisters hands started flying.

No. Definitely not. I just need to move around.

Gloria. They said you needed to stay in bed for a while longer.

Charlie. I think I know whether or not I can handle… She stopped abruptly and her hand flew to her stomach.

Gloria…Are you okay? Charlie asked worriedly.

Charlie, I hate you when you're right… Call Steve's secretary…She can give him the message.

Charlie rushed to the phone to make the call. As soon as he hung up the phone he called up the stairs. "ABBY!"

"I STILL HAVENT FOUND HIM!" Abby replied.

"COME DOWN HERE!" Charlie yelled back.

"BUT I STILL…"

"ABIGAIL MARIE SCIUTO GET DOWN HERE RIGHT NOW OR WE'LL LEAVE WITHOUT YOU!" Charlie waited for the girl to scramble down the stairs,

"Where are we going?" She asked excitedly.

"To the hospital." Charlie replied calmly as he helped his sister off the couch.

"Why?" Abby asked obviously distracted by the thoughts of her salamander.

"Because your mom is going to have the baby." Charlie said simply, and Abby snapped back to reality.

"REALLY!" She said and signed at the same time.

"Really." Both Charlie and her mother replied.

About an hour later Abby was sitting in the waiting room at Jefferson County Medical center with Charlie.

"Charlie?" Abby asked quietly.

"Yes Abby?" Charlie replied as he leafed through a Sports Illustrated.

"Where did my mommy's baby come from?" She asked peering into his eyes.

Charlie was unsure of how to respond. "Erm… well… you see…"

"Did she buy it from a baby store?"

"Uh…" Charlie thought about it for a minute and decided to take the easy way out. "Yes, yes she did."

"Can I get one too?" Abby asked.

Charlie mentally cursed himself for attempting to take the easy way out. "Uh… when you're older."

"How old?" Abby asked.

Charlie was silently cursing whoever's genes gave this girl so much curiosity. "Uh… It depends…"

"On what?"

"On…" It was then that Charlie realized he really didn't know. "Stuff… now… go get a candy bar… or something."

"Okay!" Abby replied snatching the dollar bill he was holding out.

Once she arrived at the vending machine she was overwhelmed by the many choices that she was presented with. Eventually she picked a candy bar with a bright yellow wrapper donning the words: Mars Bar (Now with nougat!).

She peeled off the wrapper and sank her teeth into the chocolate, however she found something inside of it that she wasn't fond of.

An almost peanut buttery substance was hiding underneath the milk chocolate. She spat out the bite she had taken and walked over to Charlie. "What…is this…" She asked through gritted teeth.

"Nougat." Charlie replied glancing at the candy bar in her hands.

"I hate nougat." Abby stated tossing the candy bar into the waste bin. "Can I have a dollar?"

"Abby you just got a candy bar! What was wrong with it!" Charlie exclaimed.

"It had nougat in it!" Abby claimed.

"So?"

"I hate nougat!" Abby stated.

Charlie sighed and handed her a dollar. "Don't get anything with Nougat in it again, this is your last dollar." He said before turning his attention back to the magazine.

Abby walked back to the machine and looked up at the choices facing her. She then realized she had no idea what did or didn't have nougat in it. She saw several people around the waiting room eating different candy bars, so she decided to do some research.

"Excuse me ma'am." Abby asked a woman wearing an orange maternity dress.

"Yes?" The woman asked between bites.

"Does that candy bar have nougat in it?"

"You bet it does, love the stuff."

Abby made a face. "Thanks anyway…" She said and she walked towards a group of bikers.

"Excuse me." Abby said quietly, none of them heard her. "EXCUSE ME!" Abby yelled attracting the attention of all of them.

"What is that thing?" A man with no hair asked.

"I think it's a kid…" Another man replied.

"No kids don't talk." The first man said.

"EXCUSE ME!" Abby cried again.

"Okay, what do you want?"

"Does that candy bar have nougat in it?" Abby asked sweetly.

"No…"

"REALLY! What kind is it?" Abby asked excitedly.

"It's a Hershey bar…" He replied dumbfounded.

Abby happily returned to the vending machine and located a Hershey bar and she paid for it.

She peeled the wrapper off of this bar to reveal solid milk chocolate which she immediately sunk her teeth into. She smiled, this was chocolate.

Four hours and seven candy bars later a nurse came into the waiting room saying "Sciuto?". Charlie Stood and grabbed onto Abby's arm.

"Mrs. Sciuto had a healthy baby boy." She pronounced. "Congratulations."

"Abby you hear that? You have a baby brother!" Charlie exclaimed.

Abby made a face. "A brother? Make mommy take it back… I want a sister." She said and she sulked into a chair.

"Abby, don't you want to meet him first?"

"No I hate boys." Abby stated simply.

"I'm a boy." Charlie pointed out.

"You are not. You're Charlie, that's different." Abby explained.

"Maybe your brother is different too." Charlie tried.

"He is not my brother." Abby claimed. "I have a sister."

Charlie sighed. "Come on Abby, lets go see your brother." He said grabbing onto her arm.

"NO!" She screamed causing several people to look in her direction.

"Abby." Charlie warned.

"Charlie." Abby mimicked.

"Abigail Sciuto, you will come down this hall with me, and you will look at your brother, and you most definitely will enjoy it." Charlie said through gritted teeth.

Abby, still not happy about the idea, got up from the chair she was sitting in and followed Charlie.

Several minutes later they approached the nursery window. Abby peered in curiously and saw several babies in little beds on wheels.

"So…" Abby said, trying to seem uninterested. "Which one's my brother?"

Charlie pointed to a little boy with light blonde hair that was screaming and Abby made a face. "What's wrong with him?"

Charlie laughed. "Nothing's wrong with him. That's just how babies say they need something." He explained.

"Oh. Well…I still don't like him." She said turning around to face the other wall.

"Hey." Charlie said a bit too harshly. He lowered his voice and turned to console Abby. "Your mom felt the same way. Did you know that?" Abby shook her head, blonde pigtails shaking from side to side. "She didn't want a little brother either, but now she totally loves me."

Abby cracked a smile, but quickly hid it. "Well…" She couldn't come up with anything to say.

"How about we give him… say a trial run?" Charlie suggested. "If in thirteen years you still don't like him… You can move out." He said with a grin.

Abby looked at him confused for a minute until she suddenly got it. "Hey! That's cheating!" She said giving him a punch in the arm.

"It may be, but you almost fell for it!" Charlie claimed as Abby stuck her tongue out at him.

Abby took another look at her brother. 'Hey he's actually kind of cute.' Abby thought. 'And plus this gives me an excuse to make fun of him, I'd have to be nice to a sister.' After about an hour Abby had convinced herself having a brother wouldn't be all that bad. In fact, when Charlie tapped on her shoulder to say it was time to go Abby didn't want to leave.

"Abby, come on. It's getting late." Charlie claimed.

"So! I'm not…tired" She said through a yawn.

Charlie smiled. "Come on. Your mom and brother should be able to come home tomorrow if your brother passes all his tests." Charlie said grabbing her hand gently.

Abby quickly looked at the window one last time before leaving and quietly whispered "Study up, you've got tests tomorrow."

It was all Charlie could do to keep from bursting out in laughter. Though it was hilarious, it was also adorable, and to ruin the adorableness would just be cruel. So he kept his mouth shut.

By the time they got home Abby actually was tired, so Charlie sent her up to get ready for bed.

About twenty minutes later Abby was snug under her covers on the top bunk of her bunk beds.

"Hey Charlie?" Abby asked just ask he was about to turn off the lights.

"Yes Abby?" Charlie replied arming himself for another interesting question from the mind of Abby Sciuto.

"What is my brother's name?" She asked, obviously curious.

"Well…I don't think your parents have named him yet." Charlie explained.

"I hope they name him Kevin." Abby said with a smile.

Charlie smiled. "Maybe they will." With that he flicked off the lights and ran for the phone.

"Hi mom." Charlie said into the phone.

"Oh hello Charlie!" The woman on the other end of the line replied. "My flight just landed, I'm on my way. How's Gloria?"

Charlie mentally punished himself for not calling their mother to say she was in labor, or that she had the baby. "Uh well… She had a healthy baby boy." Charlie said bracing himself for whatever was coming.

"Charlie, are you telling me you didn't call to tell me she was having the baby!"

"Maybe… But that's not important. How long until you can get here?"

"About ten minutes, why?"

"There's something I need to do." Charlie said.

"What?"

"Just something I want to do for Abby."

"Okay… I'll be there as soon as I can." His mother replied and she hung up.

About fifteen minutes later Charlie's mother walked in the front door. "Hi mom. I've gotta run. Abby's asleep upstairs." He said grabbing his coat.

"Where are you going?" She asked.

"To the hospital!" Charlie called running down the front porch.

Randy shook her head. Why were her children so persistent on doing things at the last minute.

Ten minutes later Charlie pulled into the parking lot at the hospital and ran to the Maternity ward reception desk.

"Gloria Sciuto please." Charlie requested.

He was led down a long hallway to her room.

Hi. Steve signed.

Hi. Charlie replied. I have a question.

Shoot. Steve said.

Well have you named the baby yet?

No. We still aren't sure what to name him.

Abby, she's been so sweet. She had an idea.

Really?

Yes. Kevin. In response a smile spread across Steve's face.

Let me ask Gloria about it. Steve said. I'll ask her when she wakes up… Thank you Charlie, for telling us.

No problem. Charlie replied and he headed home.

At around six in the morning Charlie got a call from the nurse at the hospital saying that they had named the baby Kevin.

Around seven Abby got up and went downstairs to find her grandma at the table.

"Grandma!" Abby exclaimed diving in for a hug.

"Hello dear." Randy replied.

"Hey Abby." Charlie said. "Do you want to go see Kevin today." He was trying not to crack a smile.

"KEVIN! THEY NAMED HIM KEVIN!" Abby cried with excitement.

"Yup." Charlie couldn't stop smiling, Abby couldn't be happier.

"Grandma! I have a little brother, his name is Kevin, and he's the bestest little brother in the whole wide world."
