Liza POV: I woke up to a few texts from my mom.

Mom: Hi honey! How are you?
             What have you been up to?

              How's Landon??

               Call me when you get a chance?

I groaned and handed the phone to David so he could read them. "I don't know babe, maybe we should give them a call." "Why the hell would you think that?" I said laughing as I got up to brush my teeth. "Well after all, Landon is their grandkid too....maybe they want to start over." "I don't know David." Just then Landon started to cry. David walked over to his crib while I finished up. "Hey buddy. How's my guy?" He picked him up and walked back over to the bed with him, I walked out of the bathroom and sat down next to David. Of course, as soon as Landon saw me he started making cute little baby noises. I picked him up and held him over mine and Davids heads, "I know! You just want your mama! Yes you do!! Yes you do! Look at my handsome boy!!" Then I "attacked" him with tons of kisses. David and I loved doing that to him. He was about a month and a half old now so he was just starting to giggle and smile at things, and it was so cuteee! I went in to the kitchen to go and make breakfast for everyone. David sat Landon in his little highchair at the table and came over to me. "We should really call your parents when your done here.." "ugh fine." I groaned laughing a little.

Zane POV: I stayed with Gabbie last night, she fell asleep on me when we were on the couch, and I didn't want to bother her...plus I figured she shouldn't be alone at a time like this. We both woke up and watched tv for a while, until I paused it and looked at her. "Gabbie, are you SURE you can't remember who it was?" She looked at me, "Yes Zane! Why would I say I didn't remember if I did! I wouldn't lie about something like that!!" Then she got up and stormed into the kitchen, I heard her start to cry. " Gabbie...I...I'm so sorry. I shouldn't have said anything. I believe you, I just really want to make sure.

"I know Zane, it's just really scary to think about

"I know Zane, it's just really scary to think about..." Then I pulled her into a hug until she stopped crying and we went back to watching tv. After a while Gabbie and I both agreed that I should probably head back home. "Bye Gabbie. I love you." I said hugging her. "Aw, I love you too Zane. I'm surprised you still said that to me even after all I did." She said tearing up again. "Gabbie, I will never stop saying it. And I promise, everything's going to be ok. I'm here to make sure of it." And with that I was out the door. When I got back to the house Heath and Scott were home, Scott was sitting on the couch with Kristen and Heath was sitting in the chair while they all watched tv. "Ayyyyyyyyyy there he is.....the ladies man...." Heath said when I walked in. "What?" I asked. "Cmon....YOU SMASHED IT LAST NIGHT DIDNT YOU?!" "What?!" "Baby, I know you were with Gabbie last night, so what, y'all are just friends with benefits now?" He said laughing. "Heath stop." I said getting angry, hearing him talk about Gabbie like that, especially at a time like this. "what? She didn-" just then Kristen cut him off "HEATH STOP! He's obviously upset, just leave him alone." Then I stormed out of the room. About 5 minutes later Kristen came in. "Hey.....I know about Gabbie..."  she said coming over to sit next to me. "YOU DO?!" " yea, and I know, that you want to do everything you can to take care of her, but you can't stress yourself out like this." "I just can't stand to see her like this. She's lost. And there's nothing I can do." Just then I started to cry. "Ummmm well, uh, I uh.." I said stuttering as I stood up, to try and hide my tears. Kristen simply walked over to me and pulled me in to a giant hug, "shhh it's ok, you've been comforting her for a week, and holding all of your emotions back....now it's your turn to be comforted." I broke down. I didn't know what to say, I guess I just needed to cry it out...

Liza POV: We just finished eating breakfast and I figured I should call my parents, David had Landon occupied in the other room with Barney, so I figured now was the perfect time.

M: Hello?
L: Hi.
M: How are you?!
L: I'm good, you?
M:Were fine, but we're coming to L.A. We need to see you Liza, we need to get this sorted out.
L: I really don't want to sort things out. I've accepted the fact that I'm no longer a part of your lives.
M: Liza, that's not true!
L: Well, I mean, I guess I can't stop you from coming...
M: Right. We'll see you next week.

And it was that quick. She hung up on me after that. I walked in to the other room and told David what had happened. "I think it's good for you babe." Just then Landon made a little baby sound, as if to get our attention, " and you too." David said laughing. Then David and I just laid on the bed with Landon and played with him for a while. It was perfect, for now at least.
