10 am. Carrie bolted upright in bed. She slept in so late. It was a surprise Riley wasn't crying her lungs out right now. Harrison was probably working out right now and with the way he blared music through his headphones, there was no way he'd be able to hear her crying.

Carrie was on her feet and dressed in less than a minute. Then she flew into the bathroom and brushed her teeth and hair. It was one of the rare Sunday's that the Panthers weren't playing. And she was sure starting it off well, by starving her daughter.

She rushed down the hallway into Riley's room, ready to scoop her up and rush her downstairs for a bottle. But she wasn't in her crib. That was good news, meaning Harrison had her. Hopefully he fed her.

Harrison was the best husband in the world. Carrie made her way downstairs to see breakfast left out on the counter beside a plate for her. She made her way into the living room to see Harrison, Luke, and Thomas on the couch watching the London game between the Bills and Titans.

Little Riley was sitting on her daddy's lap, leaning back against his chest, and watching the game. In Harrison's right hand was the tv remote, and in the other was an empty bottle.

He saw her once she walked around the couch. "Morning sweetheart. There's breakfast in the kitchen for you."

"Thanks Harrison."

"No problem. Riley crushed another bottle this morning."

"Riley, you eat like your daddy."

Harrison smirked to her as she headed back into the kitchen to grab some breakfast. Once she came back into the living room, Luke moved over to let her sit beside Harrison.

"You're going to be on breakfast duty more often," she told him. "Because your omelets are amazing."

He put an arm around her as she worked on the omelet. Riley kept looking over at Carrie and her breakfast, and back to the tv. She handed her husband the bottle she'd brought over that was half full of milk for Riley.

Harrison picked Riley up in his arms and gave her the bottle. "Look at that," Thomas said from beside Harrison.

"Buffalo just got burned."

The Panthers headed to Buffalo next weekend to play the Bills. It was so odd to be playing the Bills the same week as last year, except the game was in Buffalo. It had to be a hiccup in the scheduling process.

Harrison was excited for the Buffalo trip other than the fact he had to play Alex again. Carrie wasn't too worried about it anymore. Alex had to of learned to not mess with Harrison after what happened last season. But Carrie wasn't concerned about him coming after her because Harrison would be there.

The best part about the trip to Buffalo was that Harrison, Carrie, and Luke were going on a fishing trip on Lake Erie Monday morning. She was going walleye fishing for the first time. Harrison couldn't wait for his wife to try something he'd done as a kid. Lake Erie was thriving with walleye right now. It was doing so well that they were pretty much guaranteed to catch fish.

Walleye fishing was going to be something Carrie was going to love. He'd been looking at fishing reports in Buffalo to see how people had been doing. And it was looking really good for next week. Along the shores of New York were some of the best fishing grounds for walleye outside of Pennsylvania's borders.
