"I love you Mr. Shepard."

Thirty

As Jessica was cooking, more and more family started showing up. Waylon was being passed around and Jessica was worried about germs.

"Sam!"

"Yes love?"

"Please make sure their hands are clean and if you see Suze tell her that she needs to come in the kitchen."

"Okay."

"Jessica!"

"Susan, where the hell have you been?" Jessica said, turning around with Waye in her arms, she couldn't handle it any longer.

"I just got here like five minutes ago."

"Well, I need to tell you something."

"And What May that be?"

"I invited John."

"Jessica!" Susan glared and gasped.

"Well, you two need to be together!"

"I could agree." John said, his hands in his pocket.

"I don't want to speak to you." Susan said, not even looking at John.

Jessica walked over and pushed the door open to the indoor pool.

"Go talk. Now."

"Jessica."

"Nope go."

John went and Susan went unwillingly and Jessica smiled to herself.

Dorothy walked in and shook her head at her daughter.

"That was wrong."

"Well in the end it'll be right."

"Yeah.. but maybe they're not ready to talk."

"Oh yeah?"

"Yes."

"Come here."

Jessica pushed open a piece of the blinds, revealing Susan and John making out.

"I'm always right mama."
