Danny sighs "I have to do the sports at ten o'clock. I'm sorry Jesse."

"What do you mean, I'm sorry, Jesse Why not I'm sorry Joey or I'm sorry Danny. Or I'm sorry Ashley?" He asks, pointing to the girl sitting on the couch. Ashley waves at him, making Jesse feel even worse.

"Because I have an actual job that pays money and Ashley can't handle the three girls alone"

"Yep what he said" Ashley agrees with her brother "And i-"

"And I bring the gift of laughter into the world at ten thirty." Joey cuts her off.

Jesse isn't dropping it and tries to fight them on the matter "Yes,well I make music,songs that touch people's hearts, that penetrates their very souls. Now how can you compare that to telling jokes?"

"Are you seriously trying to tell me that music is more important than comedy?"

"You got it, pal."

"Two words. Ozzy Osborne."

"Two more words. Rip Taylor."

"The Partridge Family."

"Anyone on Hee-Haw."

"Charo."

"Bozo"

Ashley gets up and walks over to them "Will you two grow up, and here I am thinking I'm the most responsible one. Look Jesse your here to help Danny and the girls"

"Ashley's right Jesse. I'm sorry man. All three girls are sleeping like angels. I know I could trust you Jesse. If there's even the slightest problem." Danny mutters.

"Hey you can trust me too" Ashley adds but Danny ignores her comment.

"Yeah, yeah go live your life. Hey. Babe it's fine. I'll just give up my dreams to be a success in the music business. I'll sit home and read Honey Bunny and the Wee Little Glen. I'll keep Ashley outta trouble as well"

"Very rude" Ashley crosses her arms watching Danny and Joey leave "I don't need babysat"

"You sure Blondie"

"Oh I'm sure, know what I'm gonna leave you be." She mumbles "I'll keep a listen out for Michelle"

************************************

Ashley sighs, she could hear the music from her room. She didn't know if her two eldest niece's were sleeping through it. But she knew either way Michelle wouldn't last longer.

Ashley had been tasked with one thing and one only. Making sure the baby stays asleep.

When she hears the music stops she is glad. But a few minutes later she hears the one thing she had been listening for all night.

Michelle crying. Ashley gets up from her bed and goes to the baby room.

She holds Michelle and looks down at her "What's wrong sweetheart, was it the music"

She keeps trying as Ashley tries to get her to sleep again as her brother walks in.

"Danny" She sighs out of relief as he walks over to her taking Michelle out her hands.

"Oh Michelle, oh honey, it's ok. Daddy's here." Danny whispers as he looks at Ashley "I see what this is. Michelle is getting a new tooth. Oh that really hurts."

"I had nothing to do with it" Jesse quickly says before Danny could even blame anyone.

"Poor baby,imagine, a sharp pointy, calcified projectile,ripping and knifing its way through your soft, tender, inflamed gum tissues."

"Very good way of explaining that Danny" Ashley mutters as she watches Danny place her back in the crib.

"I say we buy her a pony." Joey states.

"I agree with that one" Ashley adds.

"Sometimes a teething ring helps." Her brother explains giving the baby one "Here Michelle. Here you go. Here honey. She loves it."

Ashley smiles softly as Michelle throws it and Joey catches.

"Is this anything like catching the bouquet? Am I the next one to get married?"

Jesse rolls his eyes and walks over to the crib. He wants to show Danny he is Responsible. And perhaps he wanted to show Ashley he was here for the good reasons "All right fellows. Let the pro in. I'll show you how it's done."

"You just" Ashley pauses as Jesse puts his finger in her mouth.

"All right little Munchkin. Where does it hurt? Oh ya. Give me my finger back. Kid."

"Well your brain is not working tonight ,but your finger is doing great. Joey do me a favour. I put one of Michelle's teething rings in the freezer. I would like a word alone with the alleged babysitter." Danny states as Joey leaves but Ashley doesn't.

Danny then turns to his sister "Ashley can you go double check if both the girls are in bed"

"Will do" Ashley sends him a smile leaving the room.

************************************

Ashley makes her way across the hall as she quietly enters her nieces room.

"Girls" Ashley whispers as both of them sit up, dj turns her lamp on, relieved that it's her aunt and not her father.

"Where's Dad?" Dj asks.

"Talking to your uncle" Ashley states sitting at the end of Djs bed "Steph come here"

Stephanie does so by getting out of her bed and joining her aunt. Ashley lets Steph sit on her lap as Dj crawls to the end of her bed "What did you two do"

"Nothing" They both say at the same time.

Ashley looks at the girl in her lap "Steph"

Steph looks down sadly "We were bad, we tricked uncle Jesse"

Ashley sighs "And why didn't yous or him come get me"

"Because you were listening for Michelle" Dj interrupts "And your not the one here to help look after us"

"Oh deej is that what you think"

Dj nods as Ashley wraps an arm around her "I may be here because my new job, But I'm also here because i love you both"

"We know" Steph mumbles as Ashley kisses both girls foreheads "Okay back to bed, I'm sure your dad is going to be here next"

Steph runs back to her bed as Ashley gets up "Night girls"

"Night" Both of them reply as she walks out and is met by her brother "Go easy Danny"

Danny sighs nodding his head before entering his daughters room.

Ashley enters her room and sits on her bed, she started her job in a few days. And yet she didn't want to go, she didn't want her nieces to think she wasn't here for them. When in truth she was.

She lays down releasing it's gonna be a lot harder to leave when she has to. And she's only been here a week.
