Chapter 4.
Breakfast went well as ya'll can see from the last two chapters.
Drew and Alex helped their mom clean up, while Kevin Cleaned up Gracie and Emma.
After all the dishes were clean and the girls were cleaned up, the kids went their own ways. Kevin and Lucy went to the office to talk and get some work done.
Lucy: Drew is so sweet at times. Like this morning
Kevin: yeah, we have a great son. (Smiles)
Lucy: God really blessed us w/ four amazing kids (Pauses) It makes me want to have another baby.
Kevin: Huh?
Lucy: Oh nothing. I have some work to do for the church. In addition, don't you have some paperwork to do also? (She asked putting her hands on his chest)
Kevin: yes, but it can wait. (He said pulling her close to him and kissing her)
Lucy smiles and they start kissing again. Kevin pushes the door closed and locks it and they end up making out.
Meanwhile, Drew, Alex, Emma, and Gracie are in the playroom watching a Disney movie.
Gracie: Drew?
Drew: What Gracie
Gracie: where did mommy and daddy go?
Drew: In the office doing paper, work I think.
Gracie: oh (continues to watch the movie)
(Drew is sitting on the couch thinking. He gets up; he quietly slips out of the room with out this siblings' noticing his departure.)
He tiptoed down the hallway to his parent's office and sees the door closed and knows not too disturb them.
He just shakes his head and walks back to the playroom.
Gracie had got up and left and no one had noticed. She made her way to her mom and dads bathroom. She looked around too find Lucy's makeup. She emptied it onto the floor. (You know what happens next)
