It's been a buy month at the factory both Carla and Betsy have been staying late to get a massive order sorted.

Lisa and Archie missed them both. They would be out of the door before 7am and would get home late. They had both been working their socks off to get it right.

Carla had to have the afternoon off to join Lisa in taking Archie for his jabs. Knowing he needed both women there. Not knowing if he will need his mummy or mumma in that moment.

Everything had been going smoothly until Betsy revived a phone call from a side deal she had been working on cancelled their order after feeling like they wasn't being prioritised.

When Carla arrived to the factory she found Betsy crying at her desk. The secret stash of red wine had been opened.

"Bets what happened baby?" Carla asked her daughter. "I lost my first real deal" the girl sobbed. "Oh darling come here" Carla cooed.

"Is that it! Is that all you're going to say. Come here. I've just lost your factory a deal" Betsy shouted clearly angry with her self.

"Bets with the hard work you've put in this last year we don't need it. It was us being greedy and you know it" Carla explained keeping calm.

"You're not even angry at me. You are my boss. You should shout. No wonder people think I'm a nepo baby!" Betsy shouted back.

"Betsy!" Carla huffed as the girl stormed out of the factory.

She knew she wouldn't get round to her daughter. So she called the one person that would. Her wife. Her phone rang once when she answered it.

"This is a nice suprise" she found her the blondes smile down the phone.

"Hey baby. I wish it was. Bets is in a bad way. I fear I'm over mothering her. Will you talk to her"

"Of course. I'm home now with arch. You gonna come home some can speak together. Archie misses your cuddles to"

"Oh Archie does. Does he?" Carla grinned.

"Yup" Lisa replied.

"I will be home soon. I love you"

"Love you too car" Lisa replied before putting the phone down just in time for Betsy to walk through the door.

"Hey darling" she smiled but besty ran straight upstairs and slammed the door.

"I say we give her an hour to calm down" Lisa whispered into her son's head before kissing his temple.

Soon after Mason arrived.

"Your brave" Lisa smirked to the boy as he walked in.

"I heard she stormed off at the factory. Thought I would see if she needed to talk" Mason smiled rubbing the back of his neck.

"Go on" Lisa nodded upstairs.

Within 10 minutes she head Betsy shouting at him.

"You don't even know Mason!"

"What are you even doing here!"

"Are you sure you love me?!"

Manson soon came moping down stairs looking hard done by.

"My turn?" Lisa smiled.

The brunette boy nodded.

"Mase you know she dosent mean it. He and Carla have been up to their necks in paper work this past few weeks" Lisa reassured him as she handed and wiggling Archie over to

"I know. I just miss her" he said honestly.

"Me to buddy me to. I miss both my girls to be honest with you. But they have never once complained when I'm busy with a case. You just have to know they will comeback back eventually" Lisa smiled giving his shoulder a squeeze before heading up the stairs by two.

"Betbet sad mase" Archie asked.

"She will be mate. How about we watch some Bluey" Mason smiled sitting down on the sofa and turning the tv one.

"Yessss!" Archie cheered.

When she got up there she knocked gently on Betsy's bedroom door.

"No!" The girl shouted.

Lisa walked in anyway and sat down on the bed.

"Bets. Baby. Talk to Me" she whispered placing her hand on Betsy's arm.

The girl took some deep breaths before finally looking up. "I lost us a deal." She stuttered.

"The big deal?" Lisa questioned.

"No. My side deal. They said I wasn't prioritising them enough. If sad my first deal on my own mum" she girl cried. This time into Lisa's shoulder.

"Oh darling" lisa let the young blonde cry it out for a while.

"What did mum say. Was she angry?"

"No she didn't care. She didn't even blink. I wanted her to be angry. But she was my mum not my boss"

"Babe you don't want your mum mad at you" Lisa sniggered. "Remember that day she didn't speak to me once because I didn't listen to her about when to put the dishwasher on."

"She can be petty when she wants to" Betsy laughed.

"I think she was just looking after you. She may be your boss but being your mum will always come first"

"But it just makes the nepo baby allegations worst" Betsy huffed.

"You know and mum knows you're not a nepo baby and that you've worked so hard to get to where you are. And if they do call you a nepo baby why not get your mum to have a word. That will show them you're not a nepo until then" Lisa smiled ruffling Betsy's hair.

"Hmm true" Betsy smiled.

"I shouted at her mum. And Mason" Betsy huffed

"You need to apologise to her. And him." Lisa told her sternly.

"You've both been over working your selves. Lately. I've miss you, Archie's missed you and I'm telling you now. Mason has missed you. His sad little face bets. I know I wasn't his biggest fan but he's grown on me" Lisa smiled.

"You mum will be home soon shall we head down stairs" Lisa whispered after embracing her daughter for a while. She nodded before standing and following her mum downstairs.

When they got downstairs Carla was already home with Archie cuddled with her face in her neck. She and Mason were still watching Bluey laughing together.

Betsy let out a little cough.

"Mason I'm so sorry" she started coming around to stand In front of him.

"Bets it ok." Mason smiled.

"It's not. Your not my punching bag your my boyfriend"

"And mum. I'm sorry for shouting. I think I'm tired" she admitted plotting her self in the middle of them resting her head on Carla's spare shoulder.

"It's ok baby. I know it was your first deal on your own. But there will be another. You will do it." Carla kissed her temple.

"I know. Mum talked some sense into me" Betsy smiled turning and looking and her blonde mum.

"She does do that a lot these days" Carla replied.

Lisa placed her self on the arm of the sofa her hand playing with the hairs at the bottom of her wife's neck.

"You will be glad to know the big order is done by the way" Carla smiled.

"We've finished!" Betsy smiled.

"You did it bets" Carla smiled.

"Wait does that mean I get you both back" Lisa smiled leaning down to kiss Carla's head.

"We are officially back baby" Carla smiled turning her head and puckering her lips for her wife who happily kissed them.
