A/N: Thank you everyone for reading this story and for the reviews! I do not own Leverage.
Parker was rushing around Nate and Sophie's apartment while Hardison hung the banner and Eliot was busy cooking in the kitchen. Today was the day Nate and Sophie were returning from their honeymoon. The three of them admitted to themselves that they had missed the older two members of the team. They tended to always miss each other when they were apart. Parker also missed Audrey, and Hardison and Eliot probably felt the same way. Audrey has been with the team almost a year and she managed to earn a place in each of their hearts. It was a quality that she inherited from her mother. Nate and Sophie were due any moment, and Audrey was scheduled to have arrived from New York last night but she had called Hardison to say that she had missed her flight. Of course Hardison had booked her the first flight out the following morning, so she still should have gotten there before Nate and Sophie.
''Hardison, why isn't Audrey here yet? And shouldn't have one of us pick her up from the airport? Hardison?''
''Parker does this look straight?''
''No. Hardison, did you hear a word I said?''
''How is this not straight woman?"
Parker huffed.
"Yes, I did hear you. Yes, Audrey should have been here by now because her plane should have arrived two hours ago but she could have gotten stuck in traffic. Yes, I asked Audrey if she wanted one of to pick her up from the airport but she knew we were planning this party for Nate and Sophie so she said she would take a cab because we would be busy. I am sure she is fine, but if it'll make you feel better we can try calling her after we get this banner straight.''
Parker wanted to call Audrey now but then Hardison had gotten himself tangled in the string of the banner so she went to help him. Parker helped Hardison to get himself untangled and together they managed to make the banner straight. They were about to go call Audrey when the door opened. Nate and Sophie were about to walk through but Parker ran in front of them and stopped them from entering.
''WAIT! You are not doing this right! Nate you have to carry Sophie through the threshold.''
''Parker, let us through. We had a really long flight and I just lugged all our luggage around the airport and up the stairs.''
''Nate!''
Nate and Parker had a staring match for a few seconds while Sophie leaned on the door frame, wanting to just get this over with so she could get inside her apartment. Nate then gave a big huff, dropped all the luggage from his arms and scooped up his wife, which resulted in a shriek from Sophie. Nate gave Parker a scowl and pushed passed her to enter his apartment with his wife in his arms. Nate looked at Sophie who was smiling at him and he couldn't help but to smile back. Nate gave Sophie a kiss on the cheek before letting her down.
''Hardison, help me get the luggage.''
Hardison gave Sophie a hug then went to do as he was told. Parker rushed over to Sophie and almost tackled her to the floor.
''I missed you. And I missed Nate too.''
''We missed you too Parker.''
Parker finally let go of Sophie and Sophie looked around, noticing the banner.
''Aww, thank you guys.''
Parker just beamed at Sophie while Hardison walked by with the luggage, followed by Nate. Sophie realized that she hasn't seen her daughter or Eliot yet.
''Parker, where are Audrey and Eliot?''
''Oh, Eliot is in the kitchen cooking and Audrey should have been here by now. We were just about to call her when you and Nate arrived.''
''What?! I thought she was going to come home last night! Why didn't you call me? Why didn't one of you go get her from the airport? I need to…
Sophie was interrupted by a loud knock on the door.
