Jackson: *kisses her* *picks her up* 

Ciara: *looks at him* we gotta tell Ivory. 

Jackson: We will, just not now. Can we enjoy today?

Ciara: Yeah, but she deserves to know.

Jackson: You're wrapped around my waist and you're thinking about your sister?

Ciara: *smiles* *kisses him* 

*At Breakfast* 

Lala: I've been working on that hook from yesterday, I think I got it.

Ivory: *nod* we'll go by the studio tomorrow and work on it.

Dad: *looks at the waiter* yes and mimosas for all the adults, please? 

Ivory: You're coming to the party tonight, right dad?

Dad: Partying with a bunch of teenagers? No, thank you. I'm actually meeting Alyssa at the hospital after this, then we're going to dinner.

Ivory: Like a date?

Dad: No, not like a date.

Waiter: *sits our drinks down* *leaves*

Dad: Syd has this dinner for the department that she invited us to.

Ivory: She didn't invite me.

Dad: That's because she knows you and how you feel about the police. 

Ivory: True

Jackson: I  wanna say something real quick.

Everybody: *looks at Jackson*

Jackson: I just wanna thank all of y'all for really being the family I've never had. I didn't get to grow up with this kind of love or ever celebrate my birthday. Ivory you've changed my life in ways I never thought were possible. Thank you for welcoming me with open arms and treating me like family. I love y'all.

Lala: Aww, cheers.

Everybody: *holds their glass up* *drinks*

Lala: *looks at me* you're not drinking? 

Ivory: *look at Lala* 

Lala: *smiles* bitch, are you pregnant? 

Everybody: *looks at me*
