"Holy shit!" I run up to them and give them the biggest hug I could possibly give. "What are you guys doing here!?"

"Oh, y'know..just saying hi." Seb says with a grin. "Carlos has a break from Mary Poppins so we're just stopping by."

"And you 2?" I look at Gina and EJ.

"We're just here. Saying hello." Gina responds with a smile.

I look at EJ with a brow raised. "I-..but Phantom of the Opera? Gina..Mean Girls?"

Gina and EJ got on broadway along with Carlos. Gina is the first POC to play Regina George on Broadway and honestly, I am not surprised. EJ, who I have absolutely no clue, got on Phantom of the Opera. I never knew his voice could do what it does on that stage.

Carlos plays Mr. Bank on Mary Poppins. Though Seb doesn't work with him, they're still together. Seb works with Kourtney in her Makeup and Theatre company. They're small but K&S Productions will rise.

"We aren't touring yet. It's just been rehearsals," EJ explains, "we haven't been fired yet, calm down."

I chuckle and hug them one again. It's been a year since I've seen them for Nini's 21st birthday.

"Now where is the little pumpkin?" Carlos pushes past me and I find myself laughing.

"Athena's in the office. Come in guys." I motion for them to walk in. The 3 do and grin at Carlos who was probably already in the office. "How long are you guys going to be here for?"

"Mm..probably a day for me and Carlos."

"2 for me and G." EJ pulls Gina into his side, slightly grinning. Immediately, I notice the necklace on Gina's neck. Right..some wonder studies they are.

"So, Ricky," Seb looks at the Orchids, "I know that some of us got lucky with school and made it straight to broadway but..are you and Nini looking at any auditions?"

"Ouch Seb," I snort, "Uh..we're trying. I'm not sure if we can do it just yet. Y'know, with Athena and everything."

"Take your t-"

"You've grown soo much!" Carlos walks in, spinning Athena around. "Ugh, you're gorgeous!"

"Thank you," she grins. She gasps as she see the other 3 standing by me. "Aunt GG? Uncle EJ and Seb WAIT A MINUTEE."

She laughs as she runs up to Gina. Gina lifts her up and holds her in her arms. "How have you been Ms. Athena?"

"Good. How about you?"

"Oh fantastic. You and your mom and dad should come to my show in September. I mean, they allow 4 and up."

"Ooh, mean girls for a 4 year old? You think that's going to work out G?" EJ smirks. "How about my show?"
