Locked Up

twenty-four

~Neal's POV~

"Babe," Kyle calls me. I look at him. "Come on, I wanna go."

"Alright I'm coming." I tie my shoe and stand up. I follow him out my room and through the house. "Gina we're leaving. See ya."

"Okay. Bye boys." I close the door and hold Kyle's hand. I have to let it go because we gotta get in the car.

"Food first, then get Kyla, andas my house," Kyle lists.

"Yep," I nod and put my seatbelt on.

"Let's go."

-Mae's dinner-

"I'll have a cheeseburger with fries and he'll have a cheeseburger but with just ketchup and cheese, and some fries. Two Sprites as well please," Kyle orders for me. I smile and bite my lip.

"Thank you," I say when the waitress walks away.

"Come sit next to me." He stands up and I nod. I move to his side of the table and scoot to the inside. He sits next to me and holds my hand. "You okay." I nod. "Good. What do you wanna do tomorrow?" I shrug and think about it.

"The beach? No. How about... um we could go to the park and have a picnic."

"I'd love to do that. Maybe even add a hike to it. Should we bring the girls?"

"Sure if you wanna. We'd have to take my sisters car so that we fit them all. And we can use that big picnic basket your grandma has."

"The one that's collecting dust," he chuckles. "Yeah. I'll ask her. We should pack everything tonight or at least start."

"I'll ask Gina too, but after we eat." We often leave our phones in the car while we're on dates.

"After we go get Kyla from daycare, we can stop at the store. We need juices, bread, cold cuts, some snacks, and sun screen."

"Yeah."

-at the store-

"Daddy?" Kyla points to the toys.

"Not today princess. We need to get certain things."

"Nelly up," Kyla stands in front of me. I lift her up. "Sleepy," She yawns.

"Alright." I rub her back.

"Baby, you wanna get the fruit punch Capri-suns?" Kyle asks me.

"Yes."

"Daddy fishes? Pwease?"

"Yes we'll get some Goldfish for a snack. The original pack."

"Yay." She dances in my arms.

-the next day-

"Girls! Jessie leave me alone and let's go. We need to go get Kyle and Kyla." I have Jaimie and Jackie in my arms now. Jessie keeps trying to push me.

"Hey! Jessie stop it and listen to your uncle," Regina scolds. She stop immediately. "Get your sweatshirt Jessie. It's right there. And come on so I can help you." Jessie picks up her sweatshirt and walks to her Regina. Once the sweatshirt is over Jessie's head, Regina picks her up along with the baby bag. She helps me get the girls to the car. "Here Neal. Just in case."

"Okay thank you."

-Kyle's house-

"I'm here come out. Are you driving?"

"If you want me to. I'll be right out. Kyla come on! You're so silly," he laughs. "Alright I'll be out in a minute. Can you get Kyla's car seat out the car?"
