Michael's POV

It's the first day i've left the house since we moved back with Jermaine and Randy and I are working on a house today and I brought DJ with me so it wouldn't be to much for Ocean being home alone with all three of the children and it feels really weird not having my girls around me. and even though I'm happy about going back to work, I feel bad about leaving them home alone.

"you ok? You seem pretty quiet" Randy asks "it just feels kinda weird"

"It's your first day back. That's understandable. You just have to take to it one step at a time" he smiles through pursed. "How's Ocean?"

"She's not been out yet either, but other than that she's alot better now. I feel real bad about leaving her home alone with the girls though. I hope she's ok" I sigh "isn't Aisha or Jermaine there?"

"no. I um.. I don't really wanna leave her alone with Jermaine after. You know" I mumble. "I thought you guys had put all that behind you"

"we have but, I can't help but worry that she'll want him again. I do trust her but.. But What if you know?"

"what?" He looks at me confused and I sigh taking a deep breath. "what if she preferred it better with him?" I mumble. "your her husband and were each others first. Of course she's doesn't prefer him. She made a mistake. Just like you did with Aisha"

"exactly which means Jermaine's way more experienced than me and older and..."

"and so was Aisha. did you enjoy it more or feel like that about her?" He cuts me off "of course not! I hated when I did it and I've regretted it ever since" I tell him honestly. "so what makes you think Ocean would feel any different about Jermaine?" He raised and eyebrow. And I don't answer "Ocean loves you just as much as you love her and just like you she made a mistake and regretted it since"

"I guess I'm just being a little paranoid" I shrug. Trying not to think about it anymore. "why don't you call Ocean and we can all go out to to lunch?" He smiles changing the subject. "I don't know. Ocean and Princess are still pretty delicate and it might be a too much for her to..."

"Mike it's ok. Nobody's gonna take them away" Randy cuts me off "but what if it's to much for her and.."

"it's ok daddy" DJ says walking over to me. "if mommy get scared then we can take her home. Please can they come?" he smile and I sigh taking a deep breath "alright I'll call, but if it's to much I'm taking them straight home" I say sternly to both DJ and Randy and they both nod smiling.

Ocean's POV

I felt nervous at first about coming out for lunch, especially with the children, but once we got to the café and I saw Michael I started to feel a little more relaxed. "how did everything go this morning?" He asks as I sit down beside him "It wasn't to much for you was is?" 

"everything was fine" I smile "are you sure? Because if it's too much for you right now. I can always.. "

"baby, it's fine I told you to it would be. It's not my first at this ya know" I giggle slightly and he smiles holding my hand under the table. "well if it ever gets to much or you need a break just say the word an I'll be straight home"

As we're all eating and talking Michael. And I tell Randy about our plans to sell our house and move somewhere else. "Makes sense why you wouldn't want to go back. I actually know this guy who's looking to buy a bigger house. Do you want me to give him your number and set up a viewing?"

"thanks. but um..."

"or I could do the viewing" Randy cuts Michael off sensing our nervousness about going back to the house.
