Family Love 💠 [1]

Wholesome

I had spent the morning cleaning up the house. Now though I sitting on the deck watching Sophie run around with Frank bring a smile to my face. Flynn sitting beside me with Myrtle in his lap. Ellie running around with Sophie, I think she likes playing and spending time with Sophie because she never had any of that. "You been visiting your dad" he nods he goes to answer but the doorbell goes off, sighing I stand up. It goes off multiple times making me know who it is. I open the door "Adam I have told you multiple times not to play with my doorbell" he just smiles behind him was Jay, Kevin, Erin and Connor "oh yeah I brought friends" I was so confused "I know it's Cons day off but aren't you to meant to be at work" they shrug causing me to sigh and allow them in. "There outside" I say closing the door following the out to the deck. "Myrtle" Adam exclaimed "don't scare my cats" I shove him he doesn't move much though. I sit back down beside Flynn as Sophie and Ellie notice the newcomers "fake police and Freckles" she exclaims causing us to laugh. She races up being picked up by Adam giving him a hug before being passed to jay "Con Con" she leaps into his arms "is my tinman ok" he nods "his perfect misses you" she smiles "I made him a picture daddy said I should use all my giant leaves they are so pretty" she smile "Kev" she said as she's passed to Kevin "Rin" "hey bumblebee" "I'm no bee I'm a beautiful butterfly" even if they are alway around us Ellie is still hesitant about them. "I make lots of pictures" she wiggled out of Erin's arms running into the house as everyone sits. "Addy" Adam turns around at her voice calling him, Adam gasps causing us all to turn around and look at Sophie. She stood there smiling gleefully holding Mowgli "Rin said you be jelly cause Mow Mow is your favourite" "go put Mowgli back Sophie...he can't come outside remember" I say making the girl nod and run off. Mowgli is the one cat that runs off if he is let outside, we can leave windows and doors open and he won't leave, we let him out we won't see him for days. "How can she catch the cats but I can't" "she lives here" Erin answered "you weren't here long enough to gain the cat catching skills" i smiles Sophie comes out with a pile of paper "I made many for tinman...Rin" she hands Erin the paper it paint of all colour leaves stuck on and an explosion of glitter. "Jay" she hands him the paper "I used the biggest weaves" she told him nodding as she hands one to Adam and one to Connor and one to Kevin "daddy didn't wike my weaf collection so I made everyone pictures mummy help" I smile we all sat talking enjoying the sun. "Who's your favourite Soph" Ellie asks making us all wonder what the two year old would say "i wuv everyone" she shrugs "Rin is my sister...Addy is fake police and teddy bear. Fly is my best friend" she rubs her chin looking around "Vin is like daddy" "Vin" Jay asks confused "Alvin" I answer "daddy is the bestest in the world...mummy is is the greatest...Jay has pwetty eyes and his funny...Con Con is a magician he can fix anything like Ging...ging is funnier though...Kev is a giant his so tall and his strong" I think we were all just loving hearing what she thought of everyone "oh Wexi is my best friend to" I laugh she had everyone wrapped around her little finger.

"Addy Addy" Sophie yelled giggling. Erin, Connor and Adam were staying for dinner. Jay and Kevin had left. Adam was spinning her around holding her up. "Daddy I'm up here in the sky" Sophie exclaims I turn away from cooking looking over where Henry had just entered through the door. Henry stands in the doorway looking very confused. I walk over hugging him "there staying for dinner maybe the night" "Ruzek isn't staying...Connor is your godson and Erin is my daughter" I laugh "his staying" I say sternly making him sigh. Looking at his daughter. "Daddy did you catch the bad guys" Sophie runs over causing Henry to bend down picking her up kissing her head. I walk back into the kitchen to see Erin stirring the pot. "Just like old times" I say to her the two males now sitting at the island. "Yeah I thought Hank would take me in a trip to the silos if I didn't listen to you" I laugh "he would never might be a tad bit scary with the yelling" "she laughs "and hey you know how many times he took Justin to the silos before it was his threatening the criminals of Chicago there" "really" Adam asks "oh yeah" I nod leaning on the island "I remember we were like 14 I think and Hank took Justin to the silos it felt like forever" Connor rolls his eyes dramatically causing to laugh. Henry walks in with Sophie in his arms.

We sat at the table. It was just like old time. Well expect Henry was here and not Justin. "When Justin is able to come home he will join us" I say they all nod each bitting into their pasta. "Tin" Sophie smiles pasta all over her face making me laugh. "What will happen" Flynn asks looking between henry and I "will we go back to living at the apartment...I can't do all that alone I have school and his girlfriend" I hold my hand up "no his coming home here I already told him he didn't want to but I reminded him he has you to think about and I wasn't allowing some girlfriend I have never met who hasn't visited him either take care of him" I say firmly "so this is what you guys did have dinner together" I stare at Henry wondering where his going with this. "When I worked late and this lot was younger" I nod "yeah Kelly joined us a few times as well incase after all our years of marriage you haven't realised it but eating dinner with my family is kinda my thing" he smirks "yes it is" he said making me smile.
