"Stef, Let us take them. We came to help and this way you and Lena could have the house to yourself for a few days." Sharon, Stef's mother, had been begging to take out all of her grandchildren, including the three newest ones out for the day. "Mom. I just don't think it would be a good idea." Stef sighed realizing she had lost the fight before it would have even started. Lena just smiled and nodded, "Sharon I think it would be great for you to take all the kids out tonight. Thank you." Lena rested her chin on Stef's shoulder, "Just let her do it alright?" Stef nodded, "Thanks mom." She said as Sharon went into the other room to gather all of the children and get them ready.
"It'll be good for the kids to get out for the day, and besides when was the last time that we knew all our children were exactly were they said and we could sit around the peaceful house and relax?" Lena was still trying to convince Stef that it had been a good idea to get everyone out of the house for a few days. Stef smiled, "That's true. We haven't had anytime together in the house in a while huh?" Stef slowly kissed her soon to be wife's neck.
"So what do you kids want to do?" Sharon asked looking back to all of her grandkids. Brandon and the twins just shrugged and then looked to Callie and Jude. None of the kids in the car knew what it was they wanted to do and all just sat quietly and awkwardly staring at eachother. "How about bowling?" Sharon suggested. "Sure." All of the kids agreed shrugging.
Stef and Lena had their hands intertwined as they slowly made their way up the bedroom. "Lena." Stef whispered and Lena kissed Stef. The two fell into the bed and wrapped their arms around each other. Stef slowly ran her fingers through Lena's hair and traced her face. The two were interrupted by a phone call from Sharon. "And the peace ends." Stef's sarcasm caused Lena to laugh. "Mom?" Stef answered. There was no answer on the other end, just an accidental butt call. Stef rolled her eyes, "This is why she shouldn't have a phone." Lena laughed and swatted at Stef, "Come on, we need to get stuff ready for Sunday." The way Lena's face lit up when she spoke of Sunday, their wedding day made Stef wanted to just stand there and hold her. "Guess I'll have to wait until the honeymoon then." Stef whispered as she stood up to follow Lena down to the kitchen. Lena turned to face Stef and gave her the famous look and just rolled her eyes. "Or we don't." She whispered.
"So. You already to be beat by an old person?" Sharon asked all of the kids and they all laughed. "I see where Stef got it from then." Callie joked. Jesus was the first to go and completely missed hitting anything. "And we know why you stick to boarding." Taylor laughed at him. "Mariana you're up." Brandon called. Mariana somehow manage to get a spare, "What?" Jesus yelled. Callie and Jude just laughed at the twos sibling competition. Brandon knocked over six pins, "This is why I do music." He mumbled. "Callie your turn." Sharon said stepping to the side so that Callie could go, "Okay, no laughing I suck at this." Callie warned. Jude quickly nodded and smiled. Callie ended up throwing a gutter ball twice and resigned to her seat. Jude laughed, "I can do better than that!" Callie rolled her eyes but smiled, "Oh. I see how this is, how about this, we do teams? Mariana Taylor and I against you Brandon and Jesus?" Sharon laughed, "That would be great but what about me?" Brandon jumped in at this point, "Our team we need the help!" In the end Sharon just ended up sitting out and laughing at her grandkids. Jude, Jesus and Brandon ending up winning due to the fact that neither Callie or Taylor could bowl to save their lives. "Thank you, Sharon." Taylor smiled as she was getting into the car with Jude and Callie. The other three kids were still in the bowling center using the restrooms before the ride home. Sharon smiled, "Of course, and you can call me grandma." She looked at all three of the kids, "All of you can. You're my grandkids now."
"Lena." Stef smiled laying next to her wife while tracing her fingers over the woman's shoulders and down her back. Lena just nodded and pulled her hair back. "I love you." Lena laughed, "You Stef Foster are an amazing women." The two sat smiling at eachother laying next to each other in their bed when they heard the car pull in and quickly jumped up to throw on some clothes and meet the kids downstairs.
"Hi babies!" Stef exclaimed seeing all of her children walk into the house. Lena smiled as she greeted everyone, "What did you guys do today?" Jude beamed and explained the day, "We went bowling and we kicked the girls butts!" He jumped up retelling the whole story. Callie rolled her eyes. Stef and Lena shook their heads, "You let the boys win? We are never going to hear the end of this!" They teased. Mariana pointed to her two sisters and laughed, "Their fault!" The house burst into laughter.
"Thank you mom." Stef thanked her mother before heading up to bed for the night with Lena. Sharon nodded, "I'm sure that you enjoyed your day alone." Stef gasped, "Mother!" Lena just laughed, "I suppose that all the teasing you do to our kids had to be learned from someone." The two women said goodnight to Sharon and went upstairs to sleep. The children had crashed almost as soon as they had come home and Stef and Lena just enjoyed the peace while watching all of their kids sprawled across the bedroom floor. "They just like sleeping on the floor and not in their own rooms huh?" Stef laughed. Lena nodded, "I'm just glad they all get along. Remember when Callie and Jude first got here?" Stef snorted, "That seems so long ago."
