"Mommy!"

"Mommy's sleeping Ben," Harrison told him as his son attempted to poke his mother.

"But I want to play with mommy," he insisted.

"I'm sure mommy will play with you when she wakes up."

"But I want to play with mommy now."

"Let mommy rest okay?"

Ben turned and walked across the living room towards his box of toys. "Daddy will you play with me?"

"Of course buddy."

"I'll play with you too Ben," Billie said, climbing off the other couch.

"What about Adam and Emma?"

Harrison looked at his two oldest playing Madden on the Xbox. "Adam and Emma are playing a game buddy."

"What game?"

"Football."

Not seeming very interested in playing football, Ben dragged the box back across the living room and pushed it against his fathers leg. It was his box of Star Wars toys.

Ever since Harrison and Carrie got Ben his first Star Wars action figure, he kept insisting he wanted to collect them all. And Harrison being very knowledgeable about Star Wars, was able to find every character so Ben now had all of them.

Out of all his action figures, Ben's favorite were Han Solo, Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia, Chewbacca, and Darth Vader. With having an entire collection of action figures, Ben also had all the toy ships including the Millennium Falcon, and Darth Vader's Executor.

Ben dumped out the entire box, reaching for Obi-wan, R2-D2, Luke, and even Kylo Ren. He stood them all up in front of a special forces TIE fighter. Then across from them, he set up Princess Leia, Han Solo, Jabba the Hutt, and Jyn Erso.

Harrison giggled seeing Jabba set next to Princess Leia. In the real movies, he doubted Leia and Jabba would be forming an alliance.

"What's funny daddy?"

"Nothing buddy."

Ben set the Millennium Falcon on his daddy's lap. "You watch this."

"Okay."

He then instructed Billie how to set up other characters. She was told to grab K2so, the emperor, Wicket the ewok, Qui-gon, c3po, and Anakin Skywalker as a Jedi. Ben handed her Luke's X-Wing to set behind the characters.

"What's next Ben?"

Ben took the Millennium Falcon from his fathers lap and fired the plastic laser blasts at the crew in front of the TIE fighter. It knocked over Obi-wan and r2.

"You will never get away with this," Billie teased, moving Luke across the floor to attack the emperor.

Harrison joined in. "You will join the dark side," he said, finding Darth Vader from in the pile of toys.

"Never. I am a Jedi like my father before me."

Harrison moved the emperor forward. "So be it, Jedi."
