I watched as Charlie and his "friend" Gina worked on their science project together. I came downstairs to "make me a snack" because I heard so many high pitched giggling I had to come be nosey. I flipped over my burger before I jumped feeling a hand on my hip.
"Stop spying on my son and come upstairs." Chris said in my ear. I laughed and shook my head. "Can you go back upstairs. I can't properly spy if you down here making me look suspicious." I whispered. "Miss Brown, Charlie and I are going to get somethings for our project and I wanted to know if you needed anything from the store." Gina said poking her head inside the kitchen.
I smiled and shook my head. "Thank you sweetie but I'm fine." She nodded before walking out infront of Charlie. Before he shut the door he stood in the door way looking at his dad and I. "My son, I see you!" Chris yelled. Charlie grinned like a fool before walking outside. "Stop Chris." I said slapping his arm. "What I'm encouraging him to work for what he wants. He's 17 he can have a girlfriend now." I shook my head.
"I know but dang." I said while fixing my burger. Before we made it upstairs Royalty came through the door. "Hey who's that girl with Charlie?" She asked closing the door. I shook my head. "No hello, how you doing? Nothing?" I asked. She laughed, "Sorry." She said. "Gimme the baby." I said reaching my hands out for her daughter.
"That's your future sister-in-law." Chris said kissing our grand-daughter's cheek. We all walked upstairs to our room. Royalty sat at the foot of the bed while I covered little Grace in kisses. Chris fat ass on the other hand, was nibbling on my burger. "So roro what are you doing for your 22nd birthday?" I asked her. She shrugged, "Tyler said he had something planned for us and that's why -" "-You came here to ask if we'll babysit." I finished her sentence. "Well I mean since you suggested it, sure you can." She said with a huge smile.
*********** (A week later)
I laid in my bed watching this new singer do a tribute to Chris at the bet awards. I didn't want to go, I just wanted to lay down in bed with my babies. Unfortunately, Royalty is on a family vacation with her mom and older sister. My 7 year old daughter is at her best friend's sleepover and Charlie is out with Gina. So I'm all alone.
"Mama!" I heard from the hallway. I looked seeing my baby boy in the doorframe. He looked so much like his dad it is crazy.

I watched in confusion as he rubbed his eyes. "Come here baby." I told him. He walked to me and laid his head on my chest. "What's wrong?" I asked him. He shook his head, "Nothing I'm just sleepy." I chuckled and nodded. "How was work?" I asked. He shrugged, "Same old, same old." he said before yawning.
The same cheeks that were once so incredibly chubby were now no where to be found. "What ard you gonna do when I'm dead and gone? Who you gone lay on then?" I ask looking at him. "Don't talk like that. I don't want to think about you not being here with me." He said before wrapping his arms around me.
"You're such a mama's boy." I said chuckling. "I will proudly say that I am." He said. "He's a good singer but he should stop dancing before he mess around and break his neck." Charlie said watching the boy still payibg tribute to Chris. I laughed, "Well why didn't you go and do his tribute? I mean that is your dad." I asked.
"I don't want to be in the music industry. I want to be a lawyer or a doctor." He said. "Really?!" I questioned. He laughed, "No. I want to be a actor." I laughed and kissed his forehead. "Well, you're pretty damn good at acting." I said.
We sat in a comfortable silence watching the award show. Chris was about to come out a do a medley with the boy who did his tribute. "Mama, you always say I'm so much like dad. In what ways am I besides my looks?" Charlie asked me.
"Well Charlie Brown, you are very career driven. You see room for improvement where no one else does. You are very determined. Not in one way or another but in everything you do. That's a huge thing y'all have in common. You both know you have nothing to prove to people, yet you both always prove that you're better than expected. People write you both off as troubled and short tempered yet never care to listen or educate themselves on why y'all go off like you do. Or even as hard as you do. I'm honestly surprised you and Gina are dating after all those years she'd cause you to go off on her when you guys were younger. Same thing with me and your dad. After all those years we hated each other. His fans used to bash the hell out of me and he was right there joining in. Yet here we are today, two kids, 6 dogs and 8 years of marriage." I said looking down at the ring on my finger.
"No lie, you two were made for each other. You're both equally crazy and short tempered. A match mate in heaven." He said batting his eyelashes like a innocent school girl. I laughed and playfully punched his side. He yawned again after our laughter died down."Go on to sleep baby. I know you're tired." He nodded and after a couple of minutes I heard his deep ass snores.
"You grew up on me, Charlie Brown. But you're making me proud. You truly are your father's son." I said rubbing the waves on his head, that just years ago was covered in wild curls that hung to the middle of his back.
(Chris pov)
I walked upstairs ready to knock out after I blew my wife's back out. I walked into our bedroom seeing our son laying on her chest knocked out. "Man, what the hell?" I mumbled before digging through my closet getting me some gym shorts. I took a shower before looking at my sleeping babies. I kissed Kylie's head then did the same to Charlie's. I turned off the tv and the lights before going to the guest room and getting comfortable in the king sized bed. "Man I haven't had a bed to myself in a while." I said.

Although this imagine had Chris in it, I didn't really want him to be the focus as much as little Charlie Brown. I wanted it to kind of focus on family instead.
