One Day Later.....

Elliot stood infront of his wife, "Kathy, I just found out I have another kid." Elliot explained. "She was concieved the week before you told me about Maureen." Elliot rambled on nervously.

"You have another kid?" Kathy tried to stay strong for someone who found out their husband cheated on them.

"Yeah, her name is Lacey, her birth mom put her up for adoption, and apparently she went to school with Maureen. Maureen, I found out bullied her in high school." Elliot explained, Kathy covered up her mouth in shock. "I asked her to have dinner with us, she said we could come over to her work. She works as an entertainer, she sings, Olivia said she has a beautiful voice."

Later that night...

The kids were previously informed about their new sister. The all got to a table, Maureen was at one end, Kathleen and Lizzie were sitting next to her. Dickie was next to his father at the other end, Eli with his cast were on the other side of his father. Kathy was sitting next to Eli and Lizzie.

A piano was playing softly in the background, the host of the piano bar came up "Next performer is one of New York City's best Lacey Sullivan!" He clapped as well as Elliot. She got up on the stage to her place and the piano started to play the song. Lacey swayed her body to the piano, while holding her mic. She began to sing,

Lacey looked around and spoted Elliot, she gave him a smile. Elliot was so surprised, he didn't know his daughter had quite a voice.

How 'bout a dance? It's always fun.
Come over here. Let me get to know you.
Can't beat a band to lift your spirits high.
You look so handsome.

How 'bout a dance? Let's make a start.
Music like this can really throw you.
You'll lose the blues, and you may lose your heart.

Kathy looked over to Elliot and whispered, "She has an amazing voice El, She's really beautiful." Trying to be a supportive wife.

Tonight is the night I've been waiting for.
Even the moon looks just right.
I'm sure the crowd will make room on the floor.
When they see you look like you do.

So how 'bout a dance? Let's make a start.
Music like this can really throw you.
You'll lose the blues, and you may lose your heart.

Saxaphone plays a beautiful saxaphone solo. Lacey smiled and waited for her entrance. She watches him in enjoyment. She comes back strongly,

Elliot's family gave a loud applause when the song was over. Elliot felt so proud of his daughter. Elliot was so happy, he was so so proud. Maureen was quieter, than the rest. Lacey made her way over to the table. "Thank you guys for coming." She smiled. "Hi you must be Kathy." Lacey went over to Kathy. "You are very beautiful, and are very lucky that Elliot has someone in his life like you." Lacey complimented her. "Hi you must be Eli. I like you cast, it reminds me of dinosaurs, you know my son loves dinosaurs." She smiled at Eli.

"I love Dinosaurs, Rawr," Eli squealed.

"Oh dear that terrfied me, that was super scary, I got goosebumps." Lacey made a surprised face. She gave Eli a hug. "You must be Lizzie, we should sing together sometime, I heard you are quite the singer." Lacey smiled.

"Not as good as you." Lizzie looked sad.

"Well, I'm older than you so I've had expeiercne. I bet you will be better than me when you get my age."Lacey smiled.

"Dickie, I heard your into technology, maybe you can help me. I'm terrible with it." Lacey smiled to him.

"Sure, will." Dickie laughed.

"Kathleen, we should go shopping sometime, you too Lizzie." The girls giggled about their next shoping spree.

"Maureen...."Lacey looked at her worst enemy during High School.

"Lacey.." Maureen responded.

"Hey guys lets go home and Lacey can go home with us how does that sound." Elliot took the tense crowd."

"I like that." Lacey took her car with Kathleen and Lizzie in the car helping her to their house. They got home. " Kathy, you have a beautiful home." Lacey was trying to be good house guest while being very nervous.

"Thank you, Lacey, you have very good manners." Kathy smiled giving her kids ice cream for a snack before bed. "Would you like some ice cream?" Kathy asked.

"No thank you." Lacey smiled. "Milk products aren't good on the voice, I do treat myself to fro yo on time to time." Lacey looked at Kathy, Lacey shifted. "When would you like to meet my son Danie, your nephew and grandson." Lacey looked at the group. "My son has Luekemia so I was wondering if you guys would like to test to help save his life." Lacey explained.

"I would love to help." Kathy smiled. "Although I'm not related the more donors the better." Kathy sat next to Lacey.

"Me too!" Lizzie and Dickie said.

"Can I?" Eli raised his hand.

"Kathleen is in." Kathleen told everybody.

"I'm gonna help that little grandson of mine." Elliot smiled. "You can count on me."

"I'll do it for my nephew, I guess." You could still tell Maureen had a grudge against Lacey.
