The next morning William and the boys stayed for breakfast on Michael's insistence and just before they left William made a suggestion.
W: Why don't me, you and the boys go to the park later on and have a picnic or something unless you're doing something else.
Mi: No, that sounds like a good idea.
W: Okay, I'll call you a little later then.
Mi: I'll be waiting for your phone call.
W: Boys let's go, say goodbye now.
C: Bye Aunt Olivia, bye Uncle Michael, bye bye Jakey.
M: Bye bye everyone.
W: Thank you for everything Olivia, I really appreciated it.
O: No problem, it was a joy having them here.
W: Do you want to join us later on for a picnic at the park?
O: I would love to but my Husband is arriving in an hour and I need to go pick him up.
W: Oh, okay then see you again.
O: Yeah, see you.
Mi: I'll be waiting for my phone call.
W: I'll call you in an hour or so, bye.
Mi: Bye. (He smiled closing the door)
O: Is there something that I need to know?
Mi: About?
O: William and you?
Mi: What about us?
O: Is there something going on between you two?
Mi: Wha... no!
O: I wouldn't mind if there was something, there's nothing wrong with it.
Mi: There's nothing going on Olivia. We're just friends and we both have kids.
O: If he makes you happy then there shouldn't be a problem, Mickey.
Mi: We're just friends 'Liv, now I need to go get Jake and leave because we have plans later.
O: Okay, enjoy yourself. (She smiled knowingly)
Mi: You too.
William's POV
C: Daddy, what are we doing today?
W: Uh, you're going to do all your homework. (He smiled)
C: I already did it yesterday.
W: Well then, you're going to have to stay in your room the whole day.
M: No daddy.
C: It's Saturday. (They complained)
W: I'm kidding, the three of us are going to have a picnic in the park with Michael and Jake in the afternoon.
M: Yay!
C: Yes!
W: So what do you want to do now?
M: Can we watch a movie?
W: Sure, I'll quickly go make us some popcorn and you two can choose a movie.
C: But we'll first go and get our blankets, right Matty?
M: Yup.
W: Okay, I'll be in the kitchen.
M: I'll race you.
W: No running up the stairs, I don't want either of you getting hurt.
M: Okay, daddy.
