Family in Progress

Pizza

Samantha's POV

I turn Micah's light off and walk back to my room behind Louis. He sits on the end of my bed awkwardly and I take the spot I had been previously with Micah. I thought our conversation went pretty well, Micah asked us a lot of questions. Louis and I gave him the best answers we could.

"So was his appointment good?" He asks quickly glancing his head up towards me.

"Uhm, yeah. He said his hearing is the same as his last visit," I pull out the piece of paper I shoved into my bag next to my bed. I hand it to Louis and he looks at me after looking it over. "He said it would be a good class for the three of us to take."

"Don't you think it's a little, you know, soon?" I shrug my shoulders, I honestly don't know right now.

"I think we should try it. I mean, it really wouldn't hurt, would it? Plus I'm sure Micah would like to spend time with the both of us."

"What do you do exactly? Like do they just teach you how to do sign language and stuff?" I laugh at his question. I guess from an outsider it sounds kinda weird.

"It's called signing, first they teach you the basics like the alphabet and common greetings. Micah and I started that when he was a year old, now we are doing more advanced learning like with conversation." He nods his head and takes in the information.

"I learned the alphabet my first year at college. I just took it as an elective for a quarter. I think it would be pretty awesome to learn, for him." I just nod, not knowing what to respond with. This is so awkward, and I hate it.

Louis POV

We sit there for a few moments and neither of us says anything. Normally this wouldn't be awkward, but in our situation it couldn't get any weirder. It's been over a month since we talked, and since I found out about all this. I needed time to gather myself and figure out everything. It was the hardest thing to do, to leave her the way I did. I love Sam so much, I always have and I think I always will. I just needed to hear her voice once more to make sure I could leave, that's why I called her the night after our fight. I had had a few drinks, trying to forget her even for a couple hours but it was impossible.

"Should we talk about, us?" She asks softly.

"I don't know if I can right now, it's all been a bit to much for me to handle Sam." She nods and I can clearly see the disappointment in her eyes.

"I understand," She picks up her phone as it vibrates on the bed next to her. "Ok Soph, thanks for calling... Uhm, well it's still early I can just order a pizza for us... Ok, we'll see you later... Love you too." She hangs up the phone and looks to me and than back down to her phone.

"Is everything ok?" I ask her as she is typing on her phone. She looks up at me after setting it down next to her again.

"Yeah, she was just calling to tell me they are going to be home late. I texted Kyle to see what kind of pizza he wants me to order. Do you want to maybe stay for dinner?" She asks hesitantly.

"If that's alright with you, I'd love to." She smiles but it quickly turns into a frown when she looks over at her door. I turn my head around to see a sleepy Micah walking in with his blanket trailing behind him in his hand. I chuckle, getting a glare from Sam but it soon changes into a smile.

"Buddy what are you doing?" She asks him as he climbs next to her on the bed. She cradles him in her arms and kisses him on his forehead.

"I couldn't sleep, and my tummy hurts." He says to her and she takes his hand and kisses it. She's such a good mom, I always knew she would be one day.

"Well we're going to order some pizza, do you want to stay up and eat with us?" He nods his head and she gets up and walks into the bathroom, she comes back with two pink chewable pills for his upset stomach I assume.

"I bet if you asked Louis to put a movie on for you he would." She smiles at me and he sits and thinks about it for a few moments before quickly nodding his head yes.

"Can we watch Toy Story?" He asks quietly. I get up after Sam tells me where the movie is, I set it in the DVD player next to the TV.

Samantha's POV

Louis hits play and the movie begins. Micah asks him to sit next to him on the bed, after telling him it's fine he obliges and Micah moves to his lap. It's a beautiful sight really. I used to always imagine a moment like this, I had little hope that I'd get to see it. I tell Louis I'm going to go upstairs and call in our pizza order.

"Hi, I'd like to place an order for delivery... 361 Caters Point... Uhm, yeah I'd like three large pizzas. One pepperoni with extra cheese, one hawaiian, and a supreme... And can I get a Pepsi and a root beer... And that's everything... Ok thank you." The guy said it would be about thirty minutes.

I walk to Kyle's room and take a seat on his bed, he doesn't notice me, being distracted by his video game. I get up and take the headset off his head, causing him to turn around in his chair. I laugh as he flips me his middle finger.

"Pizza will be here in half an hour." He gives me a short 'ok' and turns back to his video game. What is it with boys and their video games?

I head back downstairs, Louis and Micah are still in the same position. I sit next to them on the bed and let them know the pizza will be here soon. I'm sucked into the movie and lose track of the time when there is a knock at the door. I sit up and realize Louis and I somehow drifted closer to each other, his hand slides off my knee as I get out of the bed and walk upstairs.

"Three large pizzas for a Ms. Foreman." I'm confused for a second, wondering how the delivery guy knows my name. That is until he turns around and I see the familiar face.
