We went out to eat at a nice restaurant. I couldn't pronounce it if I tried. I sat across from Mike and Chester in the booth. They were talking to each other, I was zoned out while playing with a straw wrapper.

"Ty? Did you hear what I said?" Chester put his hand on mine, causing me to come back to Earth.

"No, I was spaced out. What did you say?" I looked down embarrassed.

"It's alright, hun. We were talking about after the tour is over to put a restraining order on Sean and getting our own place again. If you want, the guys can stay with us too." he rubbed his thumb over the back of my hand. I smiled a little, he'll be gone for good.

"I'd like that a lot, Dad. Thank you." I looked up at him and smiled. The waitress came to us and we ordered food. It was relatively quiet the rest of the time there, but I was spacing out, so I really wouldn't know. After we ate, they paid for the food and we left. On the drive to the movies, Mike stopped at a playground.

"Why...?" I looked at him confused.

"Sounds silly, and you might feel like you're too old, but I thought it would be fun for us to play on it like we were all kids." Chester explained while smiling like a child on Christmas. We all got out of the car, Chester bolted towards the swings. I went to one of the slides. I slid down it, and ended up being caught by Mike. He ended up chasing me around the park. Chester was right, this was a hell of a lot of fun! I was swinging with my dads for a while, just enjoying the moment. I looked over, they were goofing off by trying to spin around and get themselves stuck. I laughed at their silliness and joined in. It resulted me in falling. I landed on the ground, still laughing.

"You ok?" Chester came running to my side.

"I'm alright." I was still smiling. I felt my bruises start to hurt, but brushed it off.

"Okay... Just making sure." he helped me up and we all went back to the car. When I got buckled up, I yawned.

"You know what? How about we just go home and watch a movie there?" Mike asked. I nodded and curled up in the back seat. The ride home was filled with my dad's melodic voice singing to classics. We got into the driveway, Brad and Phoenix were standing outside. When I got out, Brad scooped me up in a hug. I laughed a little and got out of his arms. We all walked inside. Mike, Chester, Brad, Jason and I made popcorn and chose Tim Burton movies to watch. I was cuddled up between Chester and Brad. We started watching Sweeney Todd when I passed out.
