    "And you have snack right?" Paris' mom asked as she dropped her off at her god parent's house, the long dreaded punishment. "Yes mom, I'm fine" Paris sighed getting out of the passenger seat.

    "Okay sweetheart, I love you, be good, see you tomorrow" Taylor smiled waving goodbye. "Love you too, to the moon and to Saturn" Paris grinned waving back.

"So here are the keys" Blake placed them down on the island, "some cash to get you a pizza tonight, a back up card in case of an emergency, and just let me know if you need anything because I probably have it"

    "Okay thank you" Paris smiled. "Here give me a hug before I go, I know you got this handled" Blake squeezed her god daughter into an embrace.

   Paris was is the middle of a monopoly game with the older three kids when the door bell rang. "That must be the pizza!" Paris remarked. "Yay, Pizza!" James exclaimed.

    But the site on the other side of the door was unexpected. "I got your necklace you left the other night" Ariana smirked. "You came all this way just to give me it?" Paris wondered.

"Well I was hoping you would invite me inside since I came all this way" she laughed. "But you hate kids.." Paris questioned.

"Yeah but I like you" She walked in, Paris' mouth hung slightly open. Did she really just invite herself in?

-------

"That was exhausting" Paris sighed collapsing on the couch after they finally got the last kid to sleep. "Tell me about it, that brat kept asking me questions" Ariana rolled her eyes.

"Again, If you hate kids, why did you want to stay?" Paris was still confused. "Well honestly I just didn't want to be home. I can't stand the silence" Ari confessed.

"I feel that, with how often my parents are gone, I just hate quiet. It's so hard to be alone" Paris agreed. "You get it" She smiled. "I do"

-------

    The next morning Blake and Ryan would be coming back so Ariana had to be gone. "Hey sorry to wake you but it's time for you to go" Paris urged not wanting to end up with a secondary punishment.

    "So soon blondie?" Ari joked. "I'll see you tomorrow. Don't even worry" Paris laughed.

-------

    "How were they?" Blake asked picking up one of the girls. "They were great!" Paris smiled. "Did you have fun with Paris?" she asked her kids.

    "Yeah yeah yeah! I hope I see that girl again soon, she was silly!" James spilled the secret. "What girl?" Blake raised an eyebrow looking over to me. "Kids are so funny aren't there" Paris played it off death staring the little girl.

    "Yeah they really are" Blake looked over suspicious, "But thanks for watching them, we really appreciate you." "Anytime!"
