Chapter 3: Randy ... A Dad?

John sat drinking his second cup of coffee of the morning. He looked over at the empty seat across from him, Ashley's absence from their morning rituals didn't go unnoticed. John hadn't spoken to Ashley since he had told her he loved her the night before. He was about to leave when Ashley came bounding into the restaurant she threw some papers onto the table before having a seat. She looked like she hadn't gotten much sleep the night before, her hair was thrown up in a sloppy bun and she was dressed in sweat pants and a white tank top with one of John's grey zip up sweatshirts left unzipped. She wore no make up which was a rare sight to see because Ashley never went anywhere without at least lip gloss on.

"John I need your help" she said breathlessly "I have been up researching it all night I can't believe I didn't think of it yesterday"

"Ok I know that what you are saying makes sense up there" he said lightly tapping the side of her head "but I need it to make sense out here" he gestured to the space all around them.

"I realized last night that I am 24 years old and not getting any younger and telling you that I can't have children finally made it real to me I guess I needed to hear it to finally get a grasp on it but just because I can't have children of my own doesn't I can't have children John"

"Ok that's great that you have accepted that but what does it have to do with anything?" John asked.

"I want to adopt Phinnigan" she said.

"Ash are you sure about this raising a baby on your own isn't something to tread on lightly" John advised her.

"My dad did it with me and my brothers" she pointed out.

"Yes but you were 14 and your brothers were 12 and 5 when your mother died, it's not like you guys were newborns who demand constant attention"

"How do you know so much about newborns?" Ashley asked "I remember when my brothers were babies and my cousin Danica has a now 2 year old daughter Lily"

"That may be true but I can always work from home and I have Isabella with me"

John cringed at the mention of Ashley other best friend and roommate Isabella Anchillia. John liked her well enough but he thought Isa would cause more harm to the baby than good ... Isa wasn't a fan of little children. A waitress came over and gave them both fresh coffee and took Ashley's breakfast order.

"I still don't see what this has to do with me" John said "how do you need my help?"

"I need you to pretend to be my fiancée"

John choked on his coffee "I'm sorry you want me to what!"

"I need you to pretend to be my fiancée because the people who approve the adoptions find it better if a child has two parents instead of one" she explained.

"So you want me to be your baby daddy" he said speaking in slang.

"I hate you but yes I guess that is what I want you to be ... well just on paper you don't have to be you have a choice"

"So it's either daddy or Uncle John correct?" John asked.

"Whichever you are more comfortable with" she replied.

"So let me get this straight you want me to pretend to be your fiancée so we can adopt a baby together" John had to laugh, this was absurd "my girlfriend is going to love this one"

"John after all the shit I have done for you over the years and I have never once asked you for anything ... you owe me"

"What have you done for me?" he asked getting irritated.

"Gee covering for you with Vince when you are too hung over to even think straight not to mention who is the one who takes care of you while you are drunk because it certainly isn't Kelly sitting there with you in the bathroom rubbing your back while you vomit ... and don't even get me started on how many times I have to answer your cell phone when your parents call and you are out doing something stupid"

"So now you want to throw those times back in my face"

"No John but you asked what I did for you and I answered them and I have never once regretted helping you out because I care about you and don't want to see you get hurt and you know that I would do anything within reason to help you but can you say the same for me?"

"Even if this does work Kelly would freak"

"Why does it always have to be about her?" Ashley asked "if she doesn't want to see Phinnigan she doesn't have to and to tell you the truth I'd rather she didn't"

"I'm not asking you to give me your kidney or anything like that all I am asking you is to help me become a mom to a little boy who has no one else in the world"

"Of all people why me?" he asked.

"Because out of all people you are the only one I would want to share an adoptive son with" she smiled at him.

"What about Randy?" John asked.

"As much as I love him he is like my older brother I have known him since we were both little so it's weird and besides I wouldn't let Randy alone with a newborn because he'd scar the poor baby for life with his cockiness"

"Is this what you really want?" he asked.

"Yes this is what I really want" she said "I called my lawyer this morning and he is getting the papers together all I need is for you to say yes"

"Then yeah let's do this" John said smiling at her for the first time.

"Good I already bought the tickets and called Vince" she said "I told him your cousin Timmy was in the hospital and you didn't feel you could go see him by yourself"

"But I don't have a cousin Timmy" John said.

"I know you don't that is why I said it ... I was going to say my cousin Timmy but Vince would have gone to my father and been like I'm sorry to hear about your nephew Timmy and Chris would have been like I don't have a nephew named Timmy" she finished off her sentence with a very good imitation of her father.

"It's scary how real that sounded" John said.

"I've lived with the man for a long time" she said "are you ready to go because our plane leave in 45 minutes and I've already packed for both of us"

"How ...?" he asked.

"John you leave more of your clothes with me than you do anywhere else I should have a yard sale and sell them all" she said rolling her eyes "you'd think we were married"

"Well my dear we are pretending to be getting married" he said "so tell me how did I propose?"

"You really want to know?"

"Yeah"

"Well you recreated our first date ... remember mini golf and then watching the meteor shower from that beach but instead of there being a meteor shower we just sat there and looked at the stars. While I wasn't paying attention you slipped the ring on my finger and then you go will you and I am like will I what and then you say look down at your hand. So I look and I start to cry and say yes ... blah blah blah some sappy romantic kissing scene"

"Wow who knew I could be so romantic?" John comments.

"You can when you want to be but you usually only want to be romantic when you know you are going to be in trouble"

"Remember the time I thought I lost your dog Coco?" John asked "and I was so close to just going out and trying to find you another one when you came home and reamed me for not watching her good enough and then you were kind enough to explain that she was with you the whole time so I was killing myself for a week when she was with you the whole time"

"You learned to be a better baby sitter didn't you" Ashley said smirking "what I do remember was you being like baby let's cuddle every 2 seconds because you didn't want me to go searching the house for her when she didn't come when I called her"

John laughed a little "I thought you were going to kill me till Coco came running into the house from the backyard"

After Ashley finished her breakfast they went back to her room to grab their bags. Randy was waiting for them his own bag was packed as well.

"I want to go" he said.

"Why?" both Ashley and John said at the same time.

"Because I am the uncle"

Ashley and John exchange looks.

"You coming" Randy yelled from down the hall.

They both grabbed their bags and followed behind Randy. As they neared the elevator Kelly was coming out of it. Ashley grip on John's hand tightened.

"Stick to the story for now" she said in a tone barely above a whisper.

"John sweetie I heard about your cousin" Kelly said sympathetically "I didn't even know you had a cousin Timmy but then again you haven't introduced me to your family yet"

Ashley had to bite the inside of her mouth to keep herself from saying something not nice to Kelly but John could see a glint in Ashley's grey eyes that said she had something ready.

"I really don't understand why you didn't invite me to go with you but she's going"

John let go of Ashley's hand and went over to Kelly he cupped her face in his hands and stared into the brown eyes trying to look a sincere as possible.

"My family doesn't really like outsiders and to bring you to meet them while something like this is going on would only make matters worse I want you to meet them when the time is right"

"Ok sweetie" she said still sounding a little bitter and disappointed.

John kissed the bridge of her nose and Ashley could have sworn that she threw up a little in her mouth.

"Well I'd hate to break up this little love fest but we have somewhere to be" Ashley said impatiently.

"She's right Kelly I'll call you when we get there"

Ashley followed Randy into the elevator and John got in a few seconds later. Ashley waved to Kelly as the doors closed and then stood leaning against the back of the elevator with her arms crossed smirking proudly to herself.

"She seemed a little irritated that once again I spend more time with you then she does" Ashley said to John.

"You aren't helping the situation any" John said.

"Oh yeah I'm supposed to make life easier for that skank get real"

"She's still my girlfriend Ash and whether you like it or not she is going to be part of Phinnigan's life"

"You are naming the poor kid Phinnigan?" Randy asked.

"Yes" Ashley said smacking him upside his head "Phinnigan William Joshua"

"Hey I am the one who came up with Joshua" Randy said.

"Yes and John added William" Ashley said "I decided that since you two are going to be major factors in Phin's life you the names you picked out for him should be added also"

"What's his last name?" John asked.

"I haven't decided yet" Ashley admitted.

"Ashley if this stuff is gonna happen I want it to be for real Phinnigan is going to be my son too so he should have my last name" John said.

"Yes but he is going to be living with me so he should have my last name" Ashley argued.

"The child should always have the father's last name so he will have my name end of story"

"What do you think Randy?" Ashley asked.

"I agree with John" Randy said.

"Men" Ashley huffed.

"Remember sweetie we are engaged so it will be expected that the baby have my last name" John reminded her.

"Ewww you and Ashley being engaged scary thought" Randy said.

"Oh shut up" Ashley hit him again.

"Abuse I'm going to tell these people not to give you custody of the poor baby" Randy complained rubbing the spot where she hit him.

After a 20 minute car ride where Ashley and John continued to argue about the baby's last name they arrived at the airport and boarded the plane. Luckily for Randy his seat was no where near Ashley and John's so he didn't have to listen to them arguing anymore. He took his Ipod out of his pocket and placed the headphones in his ears. Finally peace and quiet without having to listen to Ashley and John argue about the baby's last name as strange as it was to think about it also seemed kinda natural.

"John why must you fight me about this?" Ashley asked exasperated.

"Because I am a man and there are just somethings that are expected ... death, taxes, and that your kids are going to have your last name"

"I can't believe we are fighting over a baby we don't even have yet" Ashley said.

"Screwed up ain't it"

"You have no idea"

"You know the name Phinnigan is starting to grow on me" he admitted "Phinnigan William Joshua Cena has a ring to it"

"Fine whatever I don't want to argue about it anymore you win ... geez I thought you didn't like kids"

"I never said I didn't like kids what I have said in the past is I am too much of a loose cannon to be someone's father but that's the beauty of it I can be the fun guy and then you can be the person who fixes everything when I screw up"

"Gee John sounds like so much fun and besides you could surprise yourself but actually being a good dad"

John scoffed "How do you figure that"

"Well you were raised by a pretty great dad so learn from his example" Ashley said closing her eyes.

"I did have pretty great parents didn't I" John said. That was another reason why he loved Ashley was because she fit in so well with his family. Unlike Kelly who had been raised to be a spoiled brat Ashley was very humble and down to earth. Both his parents loved Ashley and were very disappointed when they broke up but they settled for John and Ashley being best friends.

"The best" Ashley said starting to doze off, for some strange reason airplanes made her sleepy.

John got comfortable in his seat and he too doze off. They woke up just as the plane was preparing to land.

"Ugh I always tell myself I'm not going to fall asleep on planes cause my back and neck always hurt after but then I keep doing it" John said wincing at the pain in his neck and back.

"Suck it up we get to see Phin in a little while"

"That should be interesting"

"Very" Ashley agreed.

They met up with Randy and rented a car. While the guys grabbed the bags Ashley got the directions to the orphanage from one of the women who worked at the airport.

"Why do you wanna go to the orphanage?" the woman who gave her the directions asked.

Ashley thought it should have been obvious but she decided to answer the woman's question "my fiancée and I decided to adopt a baby and we heard great things about this orphanage" she lied. She wasn't sure why she lied she just felt that this woman didn't need to know all of her business.

The woman nodded and Ashley sighed in relief that she didn't ask anymore questions.

"Well y'all have a good day and good luck with your baby" she said warmly.

Ashley swore she thought the woman was going to hug her and that would have been a total invasion of personal space. That would just be way too much Southern hospitality. Luckily Randy's "lovely" people skills came handy.

"Ashley get your ass in the car now" he yelled from the backseat.

"I have to go but thank you for the directions" she said.

"Sure thing hun"

"Thank you Randy" Ashley said getting into the passenger seat.

"Your welcome but what did I do?" he asked.

"That lady who gave me the directions also gave me the creeps" Ashley shuddered and pulled John's sweatshirt tighter around her body.

"Oh was she a lesbian?" Randy asked intrigued.

"Dude stop being a sicko" Ashley said.

"Come on Ash that could be interesting" Randy said.

"Yeah so could me shoving my foot up your ass" she replied.

"Now kiddies be good" John teased them.

"Bite me" Ashley said.

John's eyebrow arched and Ashley could see his upper lip twitch, she didn't need to read his mind to know what he was thinking.

"Oh my god I am surrounded by perverts!" she exclaimed.

"Sorry we're just guys" Randy said.

"Lord get me out of this car" Ashley said.

They finally got to the orphanage and Ashley jumped out of the car just to get away from Randy and John.

"Well here goes nothing" John said linking hands with Ashley.

They entered the small building, it was clean and warm but Ashley's senses were on full alert by now. John squeezed her hand to show that he was there with her.

"Sister Agnes there are some people here" a little boy yelled upon seeing the 3 adults.

"Hi my name is Dean what's yours?" he asked Ashley.

"It's nice to meet you Dean I'm Ashley and the big guys that are with me are my fiancée John and my friend Randy"

"What does fiancée mean?" Dean asked.

"Never mind" Ashley said "how old are you"

Dean smiled and help up 4 chubby fingers.

"Wow four year old" Ashley said like it was the most amazing thing in the world.

"Yep I'm a big boy now"

"Sorry to keep you waiting" a young nun greeted them "I expect Dean has been a good host in my absence"

"Yes he has" Ashley bent down so that she was level with Dean "it was nice to meet you Dean"

He smiled shyly at her and ran off into another room.

"Dean is one of our favorites" the young nun said "I am Sister Agnes I run this orphanage"

"It's nice to meet you Sister Agnes my name is Ashley Benoit and this is my fiancée John Cena and our good friend Randy Orton" Ashley said.

"I thought you two gentle men looked familiar" she said "some of the older boys watch wrestling I'm surprised Dean didn't say anything he is a big fan of Mr. Orton"

Dean ran back into the room "Are you really Randy Orton?" he asked excitedly.

"Yeah little man I am" Randy said.

"I told Sean and Gregory but they didn't believe me" he said.

"How about you take me to meet Sean and Gregory while my friends take care of their business" Randy suggested.

"Ok" Dean grabbed his hand and pulled him out of sight.

Sister Agnes smiled "He is going to be the most popular kid in the orphanage for weeks to come"

"So Sister Agnes to get to why we are here John and I want to adopt a baby ... a baby boy" Ashley said.

Sister Agnes looked at them strangely for a moment and Ashley could tell she wanted to ask why.

"I can't have any children of my own" Ashley explained.

"Oh I am so sorry to hear that" she said sadly "but I'm glad you decided to come here the kids here could all use good homes with parents who will love them, we do try but we can only do so much for them"

"I think Randy has fallen in love with Dean" John said.

Ashley looked to where John's gaze was and sure enough Randy was sitting on the couch with Dean on his lap talking to the other older kids. He messed up Dean's hair and the boy couldn't help but grin proudly.

"So what age where you looking for?" Sister Agnes asked.

Sister Agnes's question broke John and Ashley out of their cute thoughts.

"Umm ... well a newborn would be nice" Ashley said.

"We have 4" Sister Agnes said "please follow me"

"Rans you gonna be ok out here but yourself?" Ashley asked.

"Yep"

"This is where we keep the infants and some of the toddlers" Sister Agnes explained.

"How long has Dean been here?" Ashley inquired.

"Since he was 7 months old his parents were killed in a car crash and no family could be found" Sister Agnes replied.

The room was brightly painted in a pretty yellow color and there were about 12 cribs that lined the room. Ashley wondered which one their baby was in.

"Like I said we have 4 infant boys you can take a look at them and see which one you like"

Ashley thought it was odd that the nun would phrase her words like that but she didn't say anything. Each crib had a name on it, the first crib they looked at read the name Sam but it wasn't the baby they were looking for. The next baby was named Stephen but again nothing. The third baby's name was Nathan and again not their baby. Ashley prayed that someone else hadn't adopted him first. The last crib was closest the the window the name on it read Kaleb. Ashley felt her heart start to race, her mouth became dry as she neared the crib. She peered in and sure enough her little green eyed baby was lying in the crib. His eyes seemed to brighten when he saw her and Ashley could have sworn that he smiled but she knew it was impossible because he wasn't old enough to smile. She picked him up and just looked at him as if seeing him for the first time again. It was a surreal moment, for a while Ashley thought she would never see Phinnigan again. John walked over to her and wrapped his arms around her waist and with his other hand he took the baby's smaller hand in his own.

"Hey little guy" he said.

"Funny you chose him" Sister Agnes said "we just got him yesterday poor thing was abandoned in a Walmart parking lot thank the lord for those people who found him, it is a very sad thought if they hadn't"

"I totally agree with you"

Ashley got a good look at little Phinnigan he was wearing a outfit that looked to be about 3 sizes too big but other than that he looked ok which relieved Ashley to no end.

"We have been calling him Kaleb but he has no real name" Sister Agnes said.

"Ashley always wanted a son so she could name him after her grandfather isn't that right sweetie"

"Yes baby it is" she said "Phinnigan William Joshua Cena"

"Sounds like a good strong name" Sister Agnes said giving the young "couple" her approval.

"Let's see if we can make this happen" Sister Agnes said leading them out of the room.

"Dean grab your things you are coming home with me" they heard Randy say.

"Rans what's going on?" Ashley asked.

"I just signed the papers ... I adopted Dean"

"Huh?" both Ashley and John said.

"Well if you guys can adopt a baby why can't I adopt Dean?" he asked "Sister Agnes runs this orphanage with another nun Sister Michelle and she asked me if I wanted Dean and I said yes and signed the paper and pending a court date to see how Dean is doing he is all mine"

"You guys really will give kids to anyone won't you" Ashley remarked "the man barely knows how to dress himself and you are giving him a kid"

"I resent that" Randy said.

"Daddy do I have time to say goodbye to all my friends before I leave?" Dean asked.

"Sure you do buddy" Randy said.

"What if Madonna and Angelina Jolie can adopt children why can I" Randy pointed out "not to mention Angelina was single when she adopted Maddox and Zahara"

"Yes but they are multi-millionaires and can do whatever they want because they have the money" Ashley said.

"Well neither you, me, or John are broke we all have financially stable jobs with good benefits" Randy said "plus I have a nice house where Dean can have his own room and seeing as we spend more time at your house than we do anywhere else Dean can have his own room there too because your house is huge and you have like 6 extra bedrooms"

"Your parents are going to kill me" she said putting her hands on her hip "I am supposed to keep you out of trouble"

"I'm older than you are"Randy pointed out "if anything I should be keeping you out of trouble"

"Ok kids how about we all keep each other out of trouble" John said reasonably because he was the only one who remembered where they were standing and why and for that matter who was watching them, because she had the power to take both Phinnigan and Dean away from them.

Sister Agnes looked at Ashley and Randy amused. She could tell that both cared deeply for the other and Ashley was only looking out for Randy as well as Dean's wellbeing.

"Randy if you really want to adopt Dean than good for you but parenting isn't going to be easy trust me I know I have been raising you and John for god knows how long"

"So you have plenty of parenting experience then" Sister Agnes couldn't stop herself from saying.

"Believe me Sister I have more than enough"

"Ok daddy I'm back" Dean hugged Randy's leg.

"Well we are almost ready we just have to wait for Ashley and John to get evaluated so they can take baby Phinnigan home"

"Phinnigan that's a funny name" Dean laughed.

"Well let's go to my office then" Sister Agnes said.

She had a seat behind her desk and waited for everyone else to grab chairs. Once everyone was seated she began to speak.

"What will happen today is we will let you take Phinnigan as well as Dean home and after 3 months for Dean and 1 year for Phinnigan you will have a court date just to make everything official"

"Why is it so much longer for Phinnigan?" Ashley asked.

"Because Phinnigan was abandoned so there has to be a certain time period for the biological parents to come for him ... standard rules which I think are rubbish but there have been a few cases where the biological parents do show up and want custody of their child back" she explained.

"But he'll get to live with us until the court date right?" Ashley asked.

"Yes"

"So he won't legally be our son till a year from now?" John asked "so how are we supposed to take him to the doctors and things like that if he doesn't have a name?"

"He'll have a name because after you leave I have to call up the hospital where Phinnigan was found and tell them he was adopted so they will fill in Phinnigan's name on his birth certificate"

"Ok I guess that will have to do" John said.

"Don't worry Mr. Cena I have seen cases like this before and 9 times out of 10 the biological parents never show up"

"Let's sign the papers because I want to go shopping for Phinnigan and Dean" Ashley said excitedly.

"Great spending our money" Randy groaned.

"Your are a father now Randy your money will never be yours again isn't that right Dean" she ran her hand through his hair.

"Yep" Dean grinned at her.

"You want Auntie Ashley to spend all Daddy's money on you right?" she asked.

"Yep"

John laughed at Randy's expense.

"You aren't any better she's your fiancée" Randy reminded John.

It was then that John remembered that they had lied to a nun. Well actually it was only Ashley who lied to a nun but he had done nothing to correct it.

'Oh god we're going to hell' he thought to himself.

Sister Agnes handed Ashley the papers which were exactly what he lawyer faxed her over earlier but still she read over everything before signing them. Then she handed the papers to John, he had a harder time signing that Ashley did because he was holding Phinnigan. But he signed the papers and slid them across the desk to Sister Agnes, who read them over just to make sure everything that needed to be signed was.

"Well everything seems to be in order of course there will have to be spontaneous visits to see how Phinnigan and Dean are doing" she said.

"We live in Connecticut that is ok right?" Ashley asked.

"Yes that is fine" Sister Agnes said "either me or Sister Michelle will fly out to see you"

"Well let's hit the road" Ashley said.

"Goodbye Dean" Sister Agnes said kissing his cheek "be good"

"Bye Sister Agnes"

"Bye Phinnigan" Sister Agnes said running a hand over his bald head.

"Bye everyone" Dean yelled walking out of the building.

There was a chorus of goodbyes from the kids. Dean waved as Randy helped him into the car.

Ashley got into the passenger's side of the car and pulled out her cell phone. She looked into the back of the car to see John putting Phinnigan into the car seat they had stopped to buy before coming to the orphanage. She dialed a good friend of her's number.

"Ashley sweetie to what do I owe this phone call?" Ashley's good friend Kyle Harrington asked.

Kyle was on of the top interior designers in all of Connecticut.

"You know how you have wanted to do something with some of the extra rooms in my house well do I have an assignment for you" Ashley said.

"Please tell me you are finally going to let me turn a room into a swinger's room for your wild parties" Kyle said.

"Sorry Ky but no I need two rooms for two very special little boys" Ashley said looking into the back seat and Dean and Phinnigan.

"Ok who are they?" Kyle asked.

"My new adopted son and nephew" she said.

"Wait a minute you adopted a son?" Kyle asked.

"Yeah, Phinnigan William Joshua Cena"

"... you adopted a son with John?" Kyle asked shocked.

"Yeah I know freaky isn't it but yes me and John are parents now and Randy adopted a 4 year old boy named Dean" Ashley explained "so I need you to make them some bedrooms that will make them feel welcomed"

"How old is Phinnigan?"

"He's 3 days old" Ashley replied.

"Oh a nursery can't say I haven't done any of those but don't worry sweetie I will make sure everything is fabulous by the time you come home" Kyle said "when are you coming home"

"2 weeks"

"Ok well I need to plan some stuff but you have my guarantee that you will love everything"

"Thank you Kyle you are the only one I would trust with this job" she said

"Well my love I will talk to you soon"

"Ok bye"

Ashley hung up her phone.

"So how is Kyle?" John asked with a hint of distaste.

"Why doesn't John like Kyle?" Randy asked.

"Because Kyle is G A Y" Ashley spelled out the word gay so not to tip off Dean.

"Daddy what did Auntie spell?" Dean asked.

"I'll tell you when you are older" Randy patted the boy's head.

"I can spell D E A N ... see I spelled my name"

"You did a very good job sweetie" Ashley said "we need to get him a car seat"

"I don't want a car seat" Dean complained.

"Well you need one so stop complaining" Ashley commented.

"Daddy tell her I don't have to get one" Dean gave Randy "the puppy dog eyes"

But Ashley shot Randy a death glare that dared him to defy her. He knew that Ashley's wrath was worse than anything that Dean could come up with.

"It won't be that bad buddy" he said.

Ashley smirked to herself and turned her attention to her phone once again. She dialed her home number and waited for Isabella to answer.

"Hello" a groggy hung-over sounding Isabella answered the phone.

"Sorry Isa did I wake you"

Isabella looked at the alarm clock by her bed and swore "Ashley it's not even 2 yet of course you woke me"

Isabella was a drummer for a not well known rock band so her days were spent sleeping and her nights were spent partying. Ashley had been know to join her once in a great while but she spent most of her time with Randy and John or with her dad so she hadn't seen Isabella in quite a while.

"You going the next two weeks?" Ashley asked.

"No the band is flying over to the UK for a few gigs"

"Well leave the key under the loose brick in the path leading to the front door because Kyle is doing something with two of our spare rooms"

"Whatever I'm going back to sleep"

:"Good night Isa" Ashley said hanging up.

"Well now that everything is all set at my house we can go pick out stuff for the boys" Ashley said rubbing her hands together in anticipation.

"Oh great" both guys said at the same time.

"Fun times ... fun times"
