Frankie walked inside the Duncan front door, arms wide calling out, "I'm back!" Frankie spent a week out with all of her cousins in one of their houses to bond, didn't really work she just spent time with two cousins.

Bob and Amy were passed out on the couches and Frankie can hear Charlie crying. This was not the welcome she expected nor was it one she thought she deserved.

Teddy and Gabe walked in the living room, Gabe taking lead, "hey! Can someone go tell Charlie to shut up?!"

Bob rubbed his eyes, being rudely waken up, "you know what? You give it a shot. We've been trying all night long."

"And by we he means me." Amy added the sad truth, most of the time it was one of the parents doing all the hard work with the Duncan family it was her same with the Parker family.

"Come on I got up that one time." Bob protested.

"And when you flushed you woke her up." Amy reminded him.

"But why is she so fussy?" Teddy asked, interputting their argument.

"We can't find her blankie and we looked everywhere." Amy explained.

"Aww, that's ridiculous!" Gabe commented picking up his game console and sitting on the couch, "she shouldn't need something to help her sleep."

"What about your stuffed monkey?" Amy responded.

"Coco's different." Gabe retorted going back to his game.

"Cause you stole it from me!" Frankie explained.

He stole it before they became friends and just decided to keep it. Frankie knew it was hers because her mom stiched her name on the back of its foot.

"That's what makes it better." Gabe said without looking up from his video game before he prossed who said that and looked up, "when did you get here?"

"I've been here for over fifty minutes but none of you lot noticed me!" Frankie sat on the small couch.

"Lot?" Teddy questioned.

"You can't stay still for five minutes." Gabe scoffed.

"Guys what a horrible way to spend your anniversary, you should really get out of the house." Teddy walked all over to Gabe and flicked the back of his head.

"Ow! What are you doing?"

Teddy just took the game console from him and gestured to his parents.

Gabe stood up to look at his parents, "mom and dad on your anniversary, I'm taking you to lunch and a movie, my treat." Gabe grabbed his mom helping her stand up, "oh and dad grab your wallet."

Bob blinked, "you don't what 'my treat' means do you?"

"Okay, we'd love to go to a movie kids but not when Charlie's so upset." Amy explained.
