Life Changing

Chapter 31

A month had passed. Both Sam and Emily were the happiest they'd ever been. Emily also loved the extra bonding time she got with Penelope. Since she'd been dating Sam, Emily and Penelope had gotten even closer then they already were. Emily was going home with Sam and Penelope for the first time after the overseas tour was over tomorrow. They were in Paris and out sightseeing. They had already gone several places and were now at the Eiffel Tower.

"Penelope, stand in front of the tower with Emily." Sam said. "Daddy's gonna take a picture."

"Ok." Penelope said. They stood in front of the tower.

"Everybody smile." He took the picture. "Ok we've gotta go." "I've gotta get ready for my autograph signing.

They all went back to Sam's room. Sam had just left.

"Did you remember to bring all the stuff?" Penelope asked.

"Yeah." "I brought it last night and hid it in the bathroom."

Emily was helping Penelope make molds of her hands as a gift for John for Father's Day in two days.

"Ok." "It's time to take your hands out." Emily said. Penelope took her hands out.

"Do you think daddy will like this?"

"He'll love it." "Let's get you cleaned up."

Sam came back two hours later.

"Hi daddy." Penelope said.

"Hi." He went over to Emily would was sitting on the couch.

"Here baby." He said handing her money.

"Sweetheart, how many times do I have to tell you?" Emily said. "Now that I'm your girlfriend I don't want your money."

"Take it."

"No."

"Just take it baby."

"I don't feel right."

"Em."

"No Sam."

"I'll just sit it on the table."

"Go ahead." "I'm still not taking it. She said smiling.

Later that night everyone was at the arena. Emily and Penelope were at the make-up table. Sam had a match next. He was walking by.

"Ok, I need good luck kisses from my girls." Sam said. He bent down so Penelope could kiss his cheek. Emily did as well so she didn't mess up his face paint.

"Good luck sweetheart." Emily said.

"Thanks baby."

After the show Emily and Sam took Penelope to Austin's room so they could go on a date. Britt and Austin would be watching her. Austin answered the door.

"Hi Penelope." Austin said.

"Hi Austin." Penelope said.

"We won't be late." Sam said.

"Don't even worry about it man." Austin said.

Penelope, Austin and Britt were playing a game.

What do you think about your daddy dating Emily?" Austin asked

"I'm happy about it." "I like Emily." "I hope daddy asks her to marry him someday."

"I think he will."

Emily and Sam went out to dinner and now they were back at the Eiffel Tower. It was night so it was all lit up.

"It's so much prettier at night." Emily said. "This city is beautiful."

"It is." "It doesn't compare to you." "To think, we almost let out stubbornness keep us apart."

"What the hell were we thinking?" They kissed.

The next day they just arrived at Sam's house. Bubbles who was now a full grown dog came barking and running up to them.

"Bubbles." Penelope said. "Hi girl." "I missed you."

"Bubbles has gotten big." Emily said.

"Daddy I'm hungry."

"Well then let's get some lunch." Sam said.

Emily woke Penelope up early the next morning to help her made breakfast in bed for Sam. When they finished it Emily and Penelope went into Sam's bedroom. Emily was holding a TV tray.

"Daddy wake up." Penelope said. "Father's Day breakfast."

He opened his eyes and sat up. "You made me breakfast?"

"I helped Emily make it."

"Thank you."

Sam had just got done eating.

"Time for your present." Penelope said.

"You got me a present?" Emily got it out of the bedroom closet and handed it to him.

"I made it myself." Sam unwrapped it.

"Aw, your little handprints." He said smiling.

"Do you like it?"

"I love it." He kissed her on the cheek. "Thank you."

"You're welcome daddy."

Later that night it was time for Penelope to go to bed.

"Daddy can you and Emily both read me a story tonight?" Penelope asked.

"Sure." Sam said.

They took turns reading paragraphs to Penelope. They'd just finished the book.

"Ok goodnight." Sam said.

"Goodnight daddy." "I love you."

"I love you too."

"Goodnight Emily."

"Goodnight."

A few hours later Emily and Sam went to bed themselves. They were sitting up watching TV. Sam grabbed Emily's hand and held it.

"Thanks for helping Penelope with everything today." Sam said.

"No problem." "It was all her idea." "I love her to death."

"Me to." "I can't believe she's gonna be seven this year." "She's getting so big."

"I can't believe I'll be thirty-one in September."

"It's not so bad."

"I know it's still a couple months away but I don't want you making a fuss on my birthday."

"Ok."

"I mean it."

"I won't."

"Thank you."

"I love you Em."

"I love you too sweetheart." They kissed.
