It was early in the morning around 5am. Robert and Morgan were preparing the van up for the trip. They finished up and Morgan went into the kitchen. Robert went into the livingroom standing near the couch. Zac was sleeping peacefully. He stood there grinning from ear to ear as he watch him sleep. He points an airhorn close to Zac's face. He pressed the button releasing an ear screetching sound. Zac jumped up from the couch and fell on the floor. Morgan rushes into the livingroom and glares at Robert. All he could do was smile. He looks back down at Zac who stared up at him. "Good Morning, sunshine." he greeted smiling deviously. "Morning." replied Zac getting up. He was furious but, secretly held it in. "Get ready, we head out in an hour. Don't forget to fold that blanket up and put it back in the closet." "Yes, sir."

Angela and Alex come out their rooms. "What the heck was that noise?" asked Alex. Robert looks up and smiles. "Nothing to worry about son." he replied. Zac rolled his eyes as he walked past him. Angela comes down the stairs and gives Zac a peck on the cheek. "What happen?" she asked. "I can't hear you. An airhorn shattered my eardrum." he said closing the closet door. "Oh my God. Was it my dad?" "No." "Liar." "Hey I don't want to start nothing okay. Just drop it." Zac walked out the front door. Angela folded her arms and looked over at her dad. She seen him put the airhorn back up in the cabinet. "Dad, did pull the old prank on Zac?" asked Alex. "Maybe." answered Robert giving him a wink. "Nice." "No, it's not nice. That was rude." snapped Angela. "A harmless prank. Don't get so dramatic about it." "Ha, your a jerk you know that." Angela stormed off and went upstairs. Robert felt bad about upsetting her. He felt Morgan give him a kiss on the cheek. "Don't worry about it. Although, that was mean. You should apologize to Zac." said Morgan. "I know it was mean. Excuse me for being a dad." scoffed Robert. "I know exactly what you are doing. You are testing him but, take it down a notch. Think of Angela." "You're right. I'll go talk with the boy."

Zac was at the truck pulling out his suitcase from the trunk. He sees Robert walking towards him. They just stood there akwardly. "Look, I just want to apologize for that blow horn incident early." said Robert breaking the silence. "Its cool. Just a prank right." replied Zac walking past him. "I know I come off as a jerk but, I'm a father. I care about Angela. She deserves a guy who's gonna be there for her." "Mr. Downey, with all do respect your doing a bad job. I could care less if you hurt me but, when hurt Angela that bothers me. I'm marrying your daughter with or without your blessing." Zac walks away and into the house.

I walked downstairs to see my Uncle Val and Amanda at the breakfast table. I sat down and fixed my plate. I avoided eye contact with my dad. I'm still pissed at what he did. Zac sits down next to me and smiles. He leans over and whispers, "Don't be mad at your dad. He apologized." I looked at him and smiled. "He did?" I asked. "Yes." I see my dad smiling at me. I smiled and shook my head. He's not off the hook just yet. After breakfast we piled up in the van. Val followed behind us in his truck filled with stuff. We head out onto the open road. I was so excited. I loved camping with my family. We arrived to our reserved campsite. I noticed we didn't get a cabin. "Dad, why aren't we getting a cabin?" asked Alex. "Because this year is different. Don't worry I got plenty of matress pads." replied Robert smiling. "Good cus I have a bad back ya know." All of us busted out laughing at him. Alex is too much like my dad. Always making me laugh.

After everyone set up camp and tents. Morgan and Robert disappeared to the lake. They stood there holding eachother close as they watched the sun set. "I'm so happy." sighed Morgan. Robert smiled and kissed the side of her head. "Me too. The family is together and growing." he said. "After this vacation is over. Are you going to give your blessing to Zac and Angela?" "Maybe." "Don't give me any maybe's. I'm serious." "I'm testing Zac right now. I can't give you a yes." "I hope you give them a blessing. It would mean a lot to Angela." "I know. Just takes time." "No more pranks." "Ah, come on!" "I don't care. I know how you and Val are. Ease up." "Fine! This sucks." "I love you." "I love you, too. I think." Morgan smacked his arm and he planted a big kiss on her lips. He pulled away gazing into her eyes. "You know I love you. Forever and for always." whispered Robert.  She smiled at him and kissed him once more.
