Two Fools in Love: Book 3

A Mess

One week later.

"Mommy, today's Remy's birthday driveby, please don't forget like you forgot about Shane's?" Willow says.

"I promise honey!  See?  I'm sitting here making this stupid sign."

"It's not stupid!  It's fun!"

"Yes baby, it's a lot of fun.  Will you hand me that green marker?"

"Please?"

"Please." Jessica smiles.

"Here you go!"

"Thanks, sweets."

"You're welcome!  Mommy, make sure you spell it right, okay?  I don't want to be embarrassed."

"I've got it baby, don't worry."

"Okay."

Emerson runs in and immediately starts messing with his sister.

"OW!  MOMMY!"

"Emerson, leave your sister alone."

"I can't, mama." Emerson squeezes himself between Jessica's arms, and onto her lap.  He wraps his arms around her and smiles.

Jessica patted his side softly. "I don't feel like hearing her scream.  Please don't make her shout."

Emerson smiles and kisses his mother. "You're the most beautiful girl in the world."

"Aw you're so sweet, Emmy!  Thank you, handsome boy."

Emerson giggles and kisses her nose. "Mommy?"

"Yes?"

"Can I have Remy's present we bought him?"

"No you may not."

"Ah man!" Emerson whines.

Jessica chuckles and kisses his cheek. "Let me finish this sign, baby."

"Okay!  Can I help?"

"No baby, I want it to look nice."

"Hey I'll do it good!"

"Emerson, go mess with your sister."

"Okay!"

"MOMMYYYYY!" Willow whines.

"DANNY!  Come get your seeds!"

"My what?"

"The two little things you left inside of me six years ago.  They're out and they're bothering me.  Take them."

Danny chuckles. "Em and Lo, let's go outside and play."

"YAY!" The twins shout.

"Daddy, you're the funnest!" Willow smiles and hugs his leg.

"You hear that Jess?  Daddy's the funnest!" Danny gives Jessica a smirk.

"Yeah yeah, he's also the smelliest.  Get out of here, Dan."

Just then Harvey ran over shouting holding dirt in both of his hands.

"Were you getting into my plants again, Harv?"

"AHHHHH!" He laughs and places his hands on his grandmother's birthday poster.

"NO!  Harvey James!"

Harvey laughs.

"Oh you bad little boy!"

"Harvey, what are you doing?" Isaiah walks in.
