Ocean's POV
"Will you relax we have plenty of time" Michael chuckles as I check my watch for the 100th time. We're going to see DJ today and I don't want to miss a second "Well I don't want us to be late, plus we have to stop at the store first. What if the line is really long in the store or there's a lot of traffic on the road or..."
"We have two hours" Michael rolls his eyes playfully "just relax and eat your erm.. Breakfast" he scrunches his face looking at my plate.
Jermaine comes in and joins us at the table. "So what time are you guys going to see the little guy?"
"We have two hours, but Ocean wants to set off soon" Michael tells him "well it won't look good if we turn up late and ask her" I shrug. It's DJs first birthday next week but it's on a Friday so we're hoping Gabby will agree to letting us see him on that day aswell as our usual Saturday visit. "I can't see them having a problem with it. It's his first birthday" Jermaine smiles reassuringly "it's not Gabby we're worried about" I mutter "if the social worker see's how well your both doing and how you are with DJ then it's her decision not..." He pauses and gives me a strange look. "Ocean, are you eating mashed potatoes for breakfast?" He frowns confused. "Ok, what is it with you Jackson's always afraid to try something different?" I roll my eyes playfully "we're not afraid to try new things just.... Certain things" Michael smirks "well people eat hash browns for breakfast and that's a potato. so why is it weird to have it's mashed instead?" I shrug and they both look at each other trying to think of a good answer "that's what I thought" I smirk cockily when neither of them can think of a good reason.

Michael's POVWe're on our way to the store and Ocean is making a list of all the things we need before we go see DJ. "Ok, so we need diapers, wipes, bottles, clothes, socks..."
"Baby, I get that we need diapers and wipes, but we bought a whole bunch of bottles last week, plus he has clothes"
"But they would have been used by now. He can't drink from a dirty bottle or wear dirty clothes" she frowns "I'm pretty sure they wash his clothes and clean his bottles" I try to reassure her. "They'll still have germs and bugs and who knows what else crawling all over them he needs fresh clean ones" she says sternly "alright, if that's what you want" I shrug "personally I don't think washing DJs bottles is really that big of a deal because that's what we used to do when he was with us, but lately Ocean's been really anxious about that kind of stuff so I'm just gonna go along with it to keep the peace. There's no point getting into an argument about her wanting DJs things clean"

Jessica's POVAfter yet another screaming fit from Duncan he's finally bathed and ready and I head down stairs and put him down in the living room with some toys and give him his pacifier. "Don't you think you should try weening him off that now? He's getting a bit old to start have a pacifier" Sherri says "trust me I've tried!"
"I told you it would be a bad idea to give him one in the first place. He didn't use one when he first came here"
"I gave it him to see if it would help him sleep at night, but now if you try and take it away he starts screaming and lashing out" I sigh rolling my eyes.
"Because he's spoilt" she shrugs "it's just temper tantrums that's all" I smile "could you just watch him while I go get him some juice?" I and she nods and I head into the kitchen.
As I'm getting the juice I hear Sherri Yelp and a loud smash. "you little bastard!" I hear Sherri shout as I rush into the living room "what happened?"
"He had the TV remote and when I tried to take it away he bit me and threw it at that vase!" She snaps at me. "Why does he have to do this today?" I sigh as I clean up the broken pieces off the floor. "What do you expect!? He's the spawn of Michael! You only have to look in his eyes. He has that same evil look his father has" she frowns, looking at DJ and I roll my eyes shaking my head. "As much as I hate Michael. I really don't think he's the devil" I chuckle.
