First Feder • Grown Ups

Six

The next morning I woke up to a strong grip around my waist so I turned around so I was now facing Dylan and I kissed his chest before quickly getting out of his grip and I went to the bathroom where I took a quick shower.

Once I got out I brushed my teeth and got dressed before going back into the bedroom.

Once I got back to the room Dylan was dressed and we both gave each other a kiss before going outside.

We were hand in hand and everybody gathered around the flag considering today was the 4th of July.

Once dad raised the flag Becky let go of the bird and it flew of into the sunrise. It was a really beautiful morning, the sky was golden and there was a gentle breeze that cooled you down a little in the warm weather.

After that was done I walked inside and made a bowl of cereal and my mom came up to me.

"Hola coriño" she greeted

"Mañana mamá" I replied

"Viste la foto que te envié de ti y Dylan abrazados?" She questioned with a smirk

"Te agradezco mamá" I laughed

"Ustedes dos son tan lindas juntas" she smiled

"Garcias mamá" I smiled and she hugged me

"I have no clue what you two just said but that was the prettiest conversation I have ever heared" Dianne smiled and Sally nodded in agreement along with Gloria

Soon enough dads phone started to ring and mom answered it so i went outside and saw Dylan standing by the lake so I ran up to him and jumped on his back.

"Hey Lils" he smiled and I stayed on his back

We both chatted to one another for a little while until Jasmine walked past us with ice on her head. We both shared a confused glance with each other before we shrugged.

We just talked until we saw Higgins running away from Rob after Jasmine had shouted something to them but I wasn't paying attention. And I'm not going to lie it looked pretty funny seeing the two shortest men in the house running around.

Once Higgins got to the stairs that led to the deck he threw all of the inflatables at Rob to block him and he ran over to where the flag was, he jumped up on the side and was about to jump but there was a turtle in the water so he just held onto the pole.

Everybody then joined them along with me and Dylan as we saw Rob kick Higgins in his nuts.

We joined just in time for us to hear Jasmine speak,

"Me and him?" She then gestures to her and Marcus

"Ok maybe I flirted with him a little but that was just to get your attention" she exclaimed

"What about the snoring?" Rob interrogated further

"I heard it too" Amber stated as she walked and stood beside Jasmine which caused Rob to flare with anger I could practically feel it radiating off of him

"Oh no, twice" Marcus cried as Rob kicked him again

"We heard it from two rooms away" Bridget exclaimed

"Well then he's off the hook, he would never be with her- I mean your daughter" Dad stuttered

"Ok well....then what happened to your head?" Rob questioned Jasmine

"When I was changing I got the feeling some perv was watching so I went to close the shades and tripped and hit my head" she explained and I looked at Greg and he smiled nervously

"Yeah dude that's your daughter. I would never be with her. And Jasmine would never be with me because I'm me" he sighed then continued "look I'm sorry I don't have my life together like Lenny"

"Oh, together like Lenny?" Mom said angrily as she walked up to them "please...I answered your phone, it was your assistant, I asked if he cancelled the flight to Milan and he said he did...BEFORE WE EVEN CAME HERE!" Mom scolded

"He said that? Why would he say that? I mean..." he got cut off by mom

"So he made it up huh?" She pushed

"I'm not saying he made it up, I'm saying that in his head, he believes it's true" Dad tried to deny it causing me to shake my head a little and quietly laugh to myself

"Don't agent me Lenny" Mom glared "stop trying to handle everybody and everything and take a little responsibility for once" she gestured around them

"I'll take responsibility. Ok, your right, I thought it would be better for our family to stay here with normal people instead of going to Milan" he admitted

Me and Dianne looked at each other and whispered "we're normal?" At the same time

"I was scared to tell you...it was easier to keep it a secret" Dad explained

"If you peel back any marriage there are secrets" Eric nodded and that caused Sally to give him a look "mine is that I love you, very much" he recovered

"Roxanne I didn't, our kids...well apart from Lily are becoming notty, snotty, spoiled, we got a nanny-" he got cut off

"So she is a nanny" Kurt pointed out

"No, no, no, no, no, she's not a nanny she's a-"

"Of course she's a nanny. When does the lying stop?" Mom asked

"Right after this, she's more of an opar, not really a nanny-"

"Lenny!" Mom shouted

"Alright...that's it, the lying stops now, I won't lie to you. I love you" dad smiled

"Men lie!" Mama yelled from the porch swing "they can't help themselves, Kurt sure as hell lies" she spoke

With that I saw Chubbs running up the wooden stairs and as soon as he got to the top he looked around and once he saw me he ra up to me and I picked him up and held him while giving him a kiss on his forehead.

"What do I lie about? Toe J Simpson?" Kurt questioned his mother in law

"Oh please" Dianne sighed "the nanny" she finished

"The nanny? What about the nanny?" Kurt asked oblivious

"You have a thing for her!"

"I do not have a thing for the nanny. I'm a married man. Period. But did I enjoy having a conversation without a woman going, 'where's this?' Or 'did you pick up that?'...Yeah"

"You can have a nice conversation with me"

"When? Your always working and when you get home your tires all the time. You barley even touch me or look at me" Kurt exclaimed

"He sounds like an old women!" Mama butted in "you should have married Emvirto Denutzio like I told you!"

"Yeah, and if I stayed with him, you'd be the one pregnant right now mama!" Dianne yelled back

"You're probably right sweetheart" she paused "I'll just butt out" she turned around

"Thank you!" Kurt yelled

"Look maybe I do take you for granted and I'm sorry. How about I take you out every Thursday night for date night?" Dianne put he arms around his neck

"Thursdays are Greys Anatomy, but any other night would be beautiful" Kurt smiled down at his wife

"As long as we're all being honest, I should be honest too" Eric said as Sally rested her head on his shoulder "um...I'm not actually part owner of the lawn and furniture store. I don't even work there anymore, i got laid off in April, I rented the caddy and acted like Mr. Big-shot because I didn't want you guys to know"

"Lamensoff, you don't need to hide anything from us...I'm sorry" Dad said

"Since we are all getting things off our chest, I gotta make a confession...I'm wearing a toupee" Rob admitted

"No shit" me and Rita said together and some of the adults laughed

"I have a confession to make...I'm really a man" Gloria spoke

"I told you"

"I knew it"

"What did I say?"

"I'm kidding. I'm really a little hurt that a lot of you belied it, never the less, I know it's not my business but...uhm...well after all I'm older than anybody else here" Gloria said

"Hell yeah you are!" Mamma called

"Despite the joking and razzing, I see a lot of love in this group. And with love comes hostility, like when Rob snapped at me the other day, that was scary, and you all thought I was so calm, but inside I was saying, 'Gloria Noonan, do not call him a bug eyed sociopath with a little man complex. Do not say that his hair makes him look like a dirty Q-tip. Or that he resembles a gay, older Jonas brother, or a midget Filipino Fonzi"

"That's my favourite" I laughed

"I didn't say any of that, life can be difficult, it gets bumpy. What with family and kids...and things not going as you planned. But that's exactly what makes it exciting. In life the first act, is always exciting, the second is where the debt comes in"

"Weren't you the one that said she gets it?" Marcus asked Robby

"I keep telling you guys" he limped over and hugged his wife and soon enough it was a group hug.
