Ross POV 

We walk of the over crowded plane to find my mother and father. Rylee holds my hand proudly as people quickly pull out there phones to snap pictures. I mean come on we just got back from Hawaii seriously people take a break. I hear her new seashell bracelet thing hit against her #lovewins bracelet. 

"Hey I see Stormie." I watch Rylee smile seeing her mother-in-law standing and holding Reese. 

Mark is standing on mom's left holding Raelynn. Renee is standing with my mother holding the diaper bags. 

Rylee let's go of my hand and takes off down the airport. When Reese notices her I watch his smile grow even bigger. 

"My wife." I laugh and shake my head. 

Since I am carrying all the luggage I take longer to get to my parents. 

"Ross!" Mom cries out and hugs me tighter than usual. 

"Hey mom." I drop the luggage and hug her back. 

Moms give the best hugs. Even on a good day they can hug you and you just feel better. 

"Daddy!" Reese yells from the hold of Renee's arms. 

"My little Reese Pieces." I take him from Renee's arms into my own. 

I hold him close to me and don't let go. Rylee comes and hugs me from the front with Raelynn in one arm. This is my family and I'm not letting go.

I watch Rylee stir the marshmallow goop around in the pot sitting on the stove. She is trying to teach my how to make rice krispe treats, but I'm to busy paying attention to her beauty.

How did I get so lucky? 

I feel a warm sticky substance placed on my nose. "Pay attention." Rylee stops stirring to take the pan off the stove. 

I scoop the marshmallow off my nose and put it in my mouth. 

"Sorry." I tell her truthfully. 

Rylee starts mixing in the rice krispe cereal and that's when I quit paying any attention to her again. I look at my phone to see if I have any notifications. I see a bunch from twitter, probably likes or retweets. Maybe girls trying to get my attention, I tend to get that a lot. Also hate from being with Rylee and getting a wife. 

I feel a splash of ice cold water hit my side. 

"Oh lord." Rylee sighs trying to show how tired she is of me not paying any attention to her. 

"I'm sorry." I shrug and smile hoping she won't make me do anything. 

"Yea ok whatever." Rylee chuckles. 

I watch her stick the dishtowel over the stove railing. I just now notice the tired look in her eyes. Rylee with holds a pale, sick face. 

"Sweetie, are you ok?" I ask not for the heck of it, but out of concern. 

"Yea just tired." Rylee avoids all contact with my eyes. 

"Rylee," I warn her. "I know when your lying."

"Ok so I'm not feeling well either." Rylee throws her hands up like she is trying to say I'm not in the mood. 

Women, am I right?  

"Go lay down." I insist that I have everything under control. 

"Ok maybe for an hour." Rylee utters to me. 

"Fine I will wake you up then." I claim. No I won't wake her up she needs her sleep. 

"Thanks Boo." Rylee calls as she walks up the winding steps. 

I smell the cookies she baked sitting on the cooling rack. Rylee told me not to eat them because there for her work party on Friday. 

Funny she has a work party on Friday night, I have to attend, and then we leave the next morning with the family. Rylee already got us packed and its only been two days since we got home. 

"Daddy?" I hear Reese speak just as I go to grab a cookie. 

"What's up buddy?" I stare into his sad little brown eyes. 

"Wat this?" Reese questions at the paper he is holding in his hand.

Reese seems to ask what everything is now. The doctor told us it's something most one year old's do.  I mean it's cute, but annoying as fuck sometimes. 

"That is..." I honestly don't know I haven't seen that before. 

The packet cover says 'Come Join our Swim Class'. I mean I knew Rylee loved to swim, I just didn't think so soon after having a baby. 

"Oh it's just something of mommy's." I tell him. 

"Ok." Reese grabs the thing back from my hold and runs off. He is such a mommy's boy, maybe Raelynn will be daddy's girl. 

Family before anything I remember. The way it is now. 

~~~

With Rylee being asleep with Raelynn and Reese quietly playing in his room I can watch my TV shows. 

I go to my netflix menu and type in Blue Bloods. Best crime show ever. 

Halfway through Danny and his partner have a clue as to where the suspect is, but can't seem to catch Wendy Walker. She murdered two innocent children playing in the park. This show just draw you in and you can't stop. 

"Danny no one is here we need to go." Detective Biased tells Detective Reagan. 

"No we need to find this Wendy person." Danny claims and puts his hand up to shush her from any other words. 

The phone then rings right in the middle of a good part. I have to pause to get up and fetch the phone. 

"Hello?" I answer to whoever might be on the other line. 

"Hey Ross this is Alex one of your directors in music and acting." 

"Oh yes, Hey Alex." 

"We need you on a plane by Friday afternoon to go to New York." Alex pronounces to me "We have a new show starting up and we need you to go there right away. This can be you're big break from Disney boy." 

"This Friday?" I make sure I'm hearing correctly. 

"Yes this Friday for about three weeks." Alex confirms my nightmares. 

By the time I leave I won't be able to go to Rylee's work party. I can't go on vacation with my family. By the time I'm able to come home the Disney trip will be over. 

"Ok I'll be there." I tell him before hanging up. 

No Ross what are you doing. Rylee and the fam need you. So do you think he will get on the plane to go to New York.
