It's time to get Reese, and Chelsea from school. I got into Adams car then put my seat belt on, Adam got into the car, and we were driving in silence until Adam spoke.

"Kelly do you think they will remember me?" He asked me, and I looked at him but he's focused on the road.

"Yeah, they remembered me also it's only been two years since the last time they seen you" I said to Adam to stop him worrying.

We pulled up to the school, it's only 3:57 so we have to wait three minutes before the bell goes, and  Adam turned off the engine.

"Kelly you know I am really grateful that you are letting me get my kids back tomorrow, you know you can come, and visit anytime of any day you want" he tells me, and I looked at him. 

 "Yeah. I know" I state.

The bell went then kids started walking out of the building so I decided to get out the car, go to get Reese and Chelsea considering that they don't know I got a lift off of Adam. I got closer to them when they seen me they ran to me, and smiled. 

 "AUNTIE KELLY!" they both shouted while running.

"Hey guys. I have a surprise for you" I tell them, Reese, and Chelsea's faces light up with excitement. 

"What is it?" They both asked me, and I looked at their cute little faces.

 "Come with me" I tell them then take their hands, and walked over to Adams car. 

When we reached the car Adam got out, Chelsea let go of my hand, and smiled.

 "DAD!" she shouted while jumping into Adams arms.

I smiled at the sight, then I looked at Reese he was standing there holding my hand with an upset look on his face, when he seen the worry on my face he gave me a small smile, and got in the car. I looked at Adam with a confused look while Adam sighed, put Chelsea down, and she climbed into the car next to Reese. Adam, and I got in the car.

"Are your seat belt's on?" I asked Reese, and Chelsea.

"Yes" they both replied. 

We started going back to the house, Chelsea was asking Adam questions while Reese kept staring out the window, I am starting to worry about Reese he's been quiet ever since he seen Adam, and I'm starting to think if it's a good idea to let Adam take the kids tomorrow. We pulled up to the house, Chelsea got out of the car then Reese got out after her, and I was getting out of the car when Chelsea spoke.

"This isn't our house" Chelsea said while looking at me confused.

"Aidan, and Ryder bought it for us. We moved in today" I tell her then Reese looked at me, and then to the house.

"Is this what the surprise is seeing Adam, getting a new house?" He asked me in a low voice, I looked at Reese, and wondering what's going on with him.

"No, there's another thing actually" I say to them, they both looked up at me, and they both smiled.

"What is it?" They asked me, I looked at Adam, then to Reese, and Chelsea.

"You will be moving in with your dad tomorrow but I will come, and see you everyday" I tell them.

It's 7 o'clock at night, Reese, and Chelsea are watching t.v in their own rooms. I am telling Aidan how Reese was acting today after he seen Adam.

"Maybe he was in shock, you should go, and talk to Reese about it the now" Aidan tells me.

I nod my head then made my way upstairs to Reese's room where he is sitting coloring in, watching the t.v, and I knocked on his door.

 "Come in" Reese says, I walk into his room, and sat down on his Pokemon bed.

"Reese come here for a second will you?" I asked in a gentle voice, Reese nods then makes his way over to me, and sits next to me.

"What is it?" He questioned me, I looked at him, and gave him a smile.

"Why did you call Adam by his name instead of dad?" I asked quite unsure where I am going with this, Reese looked at me, and gave me a smile back.

"I know auntie Kelly, mum told me when we got to England" he tells me, I closed my eyes, and sighed ugh why did she do that for Reese was only 7 ugh.

"Reese what did your mum tell you?" I asked him.

We sat in silence, I was about to ask him again but Reese spoke, and his eyes started watering.

"Mum told me that Adam isn't my real dad, he's only Chelsea's, my dad walked out on mum, and I. Before she met Adam then when her, and Adam met they started dating, and then a couple of years later Chelsea was born" he tells me, I looked at him, and I was going to speak but Reese spoke before I got a chance too. 

"Auntie Kelly. Why didn't my dad want me? Do you not want me? Is that why Chelsea, and I are staying with Adam starting tomorrow?" he asked me full on crying, I picked Reese up off the bed then sat him on my lap, and started cuddling him. 

"No baby. Your dad was too stupid to see how special you are, that's why he left as for  Adam he wanted you, and Chelsea back. Because no matter what Adam is your dad even though it's not by blood but because he was there for you ever since you were a baby, and watched you grow up into a young boy" I tell him the truth.

Reese fell asleep after our talk so I turned off his t.v, before I turned off light, and then went to check on Chelsea. She's sleeping so I turned her t.v off, then kissed her on the head before I went downstairs, and Aidan looked at me.

"How did it go with Reese?" he asked me, I looked at him, and sat down.

"Long story short Charlotte told Reese Adam isn't his real dad, he thought I didn't want him anymore, and that's why he was going to stay with Adam" I told Aidan he looked at me shocked. 

"Wow, that's just wow" he said while nodding.

I nodded along with him, Keith walked in with a girl he looked at Aidan, and I then at the stairs, he winked at us as the girl, and him went up them. Aidan looked at me, and smirked.

"Looks like you won't get any night sleep" he said in all seriousness, I nod at him, and then my eyes widen.

"You mean to say I have the room next to him, why when we have hundreds of rooms?" I state, and question Aidan at the same time.

"Night" he said then walks upstairs to his bedroom, and I looked at him as he was walking up the stairs.

 "Yeah. Night" I mutter to myself.
