And Then He Smiled (Logicality)

Chapter 59 - Water Donuts, But With The Family

Wow this book has been in writting for almost a year, props to those whom have stuck around from the start!

I'm not going to mention the details of the rest of the day because, I guarantee you, it would not be interesting to read for a whole ass chapter.

Anyways, everyone had finally come home to Patton fussing around the house but no one dared to mention anything due to the fact that he looked like someone who didn't want to be disturbed at that moment, plus he looked really focused for once, it was almost terrifying to see. But Logan just beamed with pride as he took pleasure in reading a book to Yvette as they had just got back since he picked her up.

Janus only glanced for a moment at Patton before putting his bag down behind the sofa and taking a seat next to Yvette whom was still binge watching The Legend Of Korra. Leaning on the back of the sofa, he watched for a few minutes with Logan before Patton stopped.

Sweat dripping down the side of his face, Patton regained his breath and snapped back into reality as he walked over to the group. "Everyone, we are going swimming,"

Choking on his tea, he spluttered his drink out of his mouth, leaving it to drip on the sofa.

"Yay!" Yvette cheered while Janus gave a sneaky excited smile. He didn't vn the sofa, directly climbing over the tea spit that was sliding down the fabric as Janus did what normal people do, walk around.

"Hon?"

"Yeah Lo?" Patton asked, Logan's expression said everything he wanted to say to his soulmate, "The doctors said it was alright and it would help since you aren't actually touching the floor,"

Turning as Patton walked around the sofa, Logan gasped, "Wait really?" he wasn't really paying attention at the appointments anymore since they usually said the same thing or things that had nothing to do with him. It sounds a bit self-centred but the system worked for him so he had no complaints.

"Mhm," Patton nodded, passing over the crutch, "Plus I'll be there to help since the other two can go by themselves, I feel much better about that since Janus is here anyways," He explained as Logan got up. He was walking a bit better and only using the crutches as a support now incase he felt unstable.

Pausing for a second for the fuzz in his eyes to clear, Logan went to get his shoes as the other two were waiting at the door as Janus held the big bag over his shoulder and Yvette held the smaller one.

Grabbing the shoes from Janus, he let himself on the floor and put his shoes on before getting up and facing Patton. "Don't crash the car," He sternly said before making his way past the kids to open the apartment door with the rest following behind.

~~~

When they got there, Patton had successfully not crashed the car and had parked it in a relatively decent spot, not too far and not too close to the door since those spots were taken or double parked. It would be bad if Patton parked on top of those cars, making the true double parked car. So he didn't.

As the four got out of the car, Patton and Logan got themselves a parking ticket for the day and Janus and Yvette got the bags again. "Come on munchkins," Patton chuckled as he closed the car door and began walking to the front.

Following behind them like little ducklings, the other three were honestly slightly happy. Logan had barely done anything for months and the other two hadn't been to a waterpark in their lives. So happiness all around!

Approaching the desk, Logan noticed the place had changed a bit different, or maybe they got some window cleaners in and vacuumed the floor, or maybe the staff looked less miserable, or perhaps it was just a different shift of staff. Hobbling to the front of their little group, Logan spoke to the cashier, "Can I have 2 adult tickets and two child tickets,"

"You sure you don't want the family package?" The person asked, hesitating before the register.

"You have that?" Logan asked, well, more like he asked himself, counting in his mind, he came to a conclusion, "Alright, we'll have the family tickets," (It turned out they were cheaper). Haha didn't get him today capitalism!

Typing it in, the cashier got the passes, placing them on the side, he had a bored expression, "That'll be $55 and 50 cents,"

~~~

Once again, Patton forgot how bright, and how blind he was and, once again, clung to Logan for dear life as the four of them went inside. It was just how he remebered it, a kingdom of fun and water. He was going to love today with his family.

Placing a comforting arm on Patton's shoulder, (totally not trying to stand up properly) Logan spoke to their little gang, "What shall we go on first?" He asked, looking to the other two. Yvette was staring in awe as Janus tried to hide the happiness in his slight rocking back and forth.

"That one!" Yvette pointed to the water donuts that Logan and Patton had been on before. A unanimous vote was silently held as the four of them went to the water slide.

Logan was set to be with Janus since Logan has basically adopted him at this point and Patton went with Yvette because she can't go by herself. Honestly Janus and Yvette could have just gone with each other but they just wanted to spend time with their kids. No one can argue with that. Don't even try.

The line was long and boring, I spy didn't work. Thing could be worse though I spy only worked with an insane ammount of guesses from Patton and Janus got it in less than a minute, Yvette took a bit of time but she did better than Logan who clearly doesn't understand the mind of an 8 year old. Then again, who does? And if you do, where are you?

Patton and Yvette had decidedly gone first due to Janus and Logan not caring that much about who goes first. (It was Yvette who decided).

The ride splashed them in all directions as they slid down the slide via blowup donut. It was just as rocky as before, but still, very enjoyable as before. Before they knew it, the slide was over and they landed in a pool on the donut.

Promptly falling off, Yvette gave the donut to the employee then the two went and waited for Logan and Janus to come down afterwards.

Janus and Logan immediately fell into the pool like the clumsy clogs they are. After giving the pool ring to the employee, Janus grabbed Logan and they both got out of the pool.

"Let's go on that one next!" Yvette cheered as she pointed to a similar one to the one they had just been on, but this one didn't have the donut, in replacement of the donut, was a drop. Fun!

Holding onto Patton, Logan slowly followed behind as Janus and Yvette hopped ahead. They wanted to run but they both knew they'd get scolded by Logan, maybe even a lifeguard, so they didn't.  Skipping was the next best thing.

They still got scolded.

Either way, they all had a wonderful time. Logan's favourite was definitely the lazy river after a day of standing. It was a bit hard since he couldn't bring his crutch in. Still, it was a nice day.

At the end of their little day trip they all just relaxed along the lazy river until their colour of band was told to exit the pool after their time was up. By the time they had all changed back into their clothes and got to the car, Janus and Yvette fell asleep on the way back.

Logan had snagged a cute photo to put on the wall later and Patton was enjoying the scenery of the long route home. He couldn't bare to wake them up just yet.
