Birthday Planning

EL PASO COMES TO LA

NOTES: THERE ARE ONLY 2 CHAPTERS LEFT AFTER THIS ONE. THIS HAS BEEN AN UNLIKELY ADVENTURE. THANK YOU ALL FOR THE LOVE AND SUPPORT I HAVE GOTTEN FROM THIS. I AM QUARANTINED SO I MIGHT DO NOTHING BUT WRITE.

As they were waking up Buck could hear the phone ringing shaking Eddie awake "the phone is ringing" as Eddie woke up, he heard the phone ring, "ignore it it's probably telemarketers." Eddie said looking at the clock its 4 am. as he went back to sleep wrapping his arm around buck again.

An hour later as they were finally getting out of bed to get ready for the day. Eddie heard the doorbell as he walked to open the door, but Buck beat him to it. As Buck opened the door Eddie saw the past come back to haunt him. As he stood there wondering why people kept showing up unannounced at his house. He needed to move. So, people would stop coming over.

"Hi, yes may we help you," Buck said as he smiled at the people standing outside.

"Edmundo who is this? And why isn't he wearing a shirt". Helena asked from the door

"Mom & Dad this is Buck remember me and Christopher told you about him."

"Oh yes please come in Mr. and Ms. Diaz" Buck said as Buck and Eddie moved out from the doorway.

Rolling their eyes and giving Buck the death stare they entered the house.

" Im going to wake Chris." Buck said softly as he walked down the hall to wake Chris.

In the living room sat Eddie with his parents. He was waiting for the other shoe to drop since they walked in. quiet took over the living space and all Eddie wanted to do was run to be with his son and buck, maybe they would disappear.

" what are you guys doing here," Eddie asked

" We are here for christopher's birthday party. You never send us an invitation in the mail and we kept calling but your mailbox was full. Your sister told us about it. So we came to celebrate"

He would he have strong words with sophia later. But right he hated that he had to deal with this.

"His party isn't for 2 days.. So why are you here at this moment? Its too early for company " Eddie said wishing they hadnt gotten out of bed.

" We are not company Edmundo we are your parents. And speaking of company what is that man doing here this early waking up Christopher." Helena said a little annoyed at her son.

" Buck's been living here for a while, and I know mom but we have had a busy week so we were just going to have breakfast with him before work," Eddie said trying to explain why he was annoyed at the unexpected company.

Waking Christopher was easy it was the whole motivation to move from the bed that was a common hardship for the Diaz boys. As he shook Chris gently " ugh 5 more minutes daddy please I'm warm". Smiling at the way Chris thought he was his dad " hey bud it's Buck and I know it's warm but you have to get up your grandparents are here." rolling over Chris said " what are they doing here.. Bucky dad is going to be sad and angry at the same time. He always gets like that when grandma and grandpa come" Chris told Buck hoping he can help with his dad's mood change.

" Okay, buddy ill make sure he stays happy okay," Buck said as he led Chris to the bathroom so he could brush his teeth and comb his hair. He woke up looking like he got attacked by lightning. Looking into the living room to see Eddie staring back at him he silently said " I can make them disappear". As he closed the door to the bathroom. Running into Eddies room to change his clothes. When they both finished Chris runs to see his grandparents still in his pj's.

" hi Hermoso how has my favorite baby," Helena said as she hugged Christopher then Ramon was next he simply just put his hand on Chris's shoulder patting it 3 times"
