Gabriella was setting the dinner on the table as it's now dinner time and Troy kissed her cheek. "I'm gonna go get the kids."
"Ok."
Troy went to Tori's room and opened the door. The girls were playing house. "Girls."
The two looked up stopping their game. "Yes, Daddy?"
"Time for dinner. Go downstairs."
The girls dropped their dolls and ran downstairs to the kitchen. Troy walked to Zac's room and opened the door. The little boy looked up wiping his tears. "What do you want?"
"It's time for dinner. Did you think about what I said?"
"Yes, Daddy. And I very sorry. I won't do it again. I promise."
"And next time you'll stand up for her and defend her?"
"Yes."
"Ok then." Troy picked him up and Zac wrapped his arms around his neck. Troy kissed the top of his head. "I wasn't trying to be mean, Buddy. I was just trying to let you know that what you did was wrong. Ok?"
Zac nodded. "Yes, Daddy."
"That's my boy." He said then sat him in his booster seat to eat.
Dinner went in comfortable silence. Zac apologized to Anna and she forgave him. They finish eating quickly and Gabby puts the dishes in the sink. The kids go to their rooms to get ready for their baths while Troy puts away the little bit of leftovers. Gabriella smiled and wrapped her arms around his waist from behind. "I take it you talked to our son considering he apologized."
"Yeah. That and he thought about what I said earlier."
"Well, whatever you said, worked." She kissed his cheek. "You're a wonderful father." She said then let go.
Troy smiled and turned around wrapping his arms around her waist. He pulled her flush against him and kissed her passionately. After five minutes, he pulled away. "And you're the best mother in the world."
She smiled. "I don't know about that."
He pecked her lips twice. "No. You are the best in the world."
"Thank you, Wildcat."
He pecked her lips again then kissed her cheek. "Anytime, Beautiful."
He let go and they went to get the kids for their baths.
