Once 5 beers, 11 cokes, 7 fruit shoots, 3 plates of steak,3 burger,5bowls of spaghetti carbonara ,7 plates of chicken nuggets,5 plates of lasagna,had arrived we all dig into our food,Veronica is feeding Ashley some baby food, the twins can eat themselves but sometimes need help
"Mmmmm this lasagna is sooo good" Juliet moans
"It is" juniper adds
"full" lily says
"Nope you gotta eat more you ate one fry" Jughead says
"Yummm these chicken nuggets are the best I have had better than McDonald's" Brooklyn says shoving two in her mouth
"Jeez one at a time your gonna get a tummy ache" juniper says
"Your not my chicken nugget police so I can eat as much as I can, I love chicken nuggets more than my bar or dolls" Brooklyn says
"Okay now be quiet and eat" fp says
"You all are being so quiet" Cheryl says to most of the kids
"It's just because I'm eating you know... food yay" Juliet says sarcastically
"What's up with you" Cole mumbles but it's clear enough to hear
"What do you mean what's up with me? You literally just told me something I didn't want to hear how am I meant to react" she whispers through her teeth to him
"Okay guys I don't know what just happened but leave it behind you's this is meant to be a nice supper... without drama" reggie says
"Sorry" Juliet mumbles
"Right off that topic, how is school going kids" fangs asks
"Horrible terrible and trick load of boring" Dagwood says and we all chuckle
"It's not that bad maybe try harder and it will be better" juniper says smiling
"School is okay I just wish it wasn't so early" Brooklyn says
"Yea I can't do math early" Ethan says
"My class is mean so I don't want to go" carter says and immediately catches our attention
"What do you mean buddy? Why didn't you tell us" fangs says
"They are mean, they say it's not cool to have two dads" carter says looking down
We all go quiet
"Buddy, it isn't not cool to have two dads, it's a little bit different and we understand that but we love you the same as a mom and dad, and you know we aren't your real parents but they weren't able to give you the stuff you deserve, we can we can give you toys, we can provide for you, so it's nothing to be ashamed of.." Kevin explains and it makes my heart ache that people can be so rude
"Okay daddy I believe you... should I punch them like Juliet does?" He asks I put my elbow on the table and my hand in my forehead because it's quite embarrassing that he says that
"No no no never punch people like Juliet does that isn't the right way" Veronica says
"What if they are REALLY mean?" Ethan asks
"Still no you go tell a teacher" reggie says
"Teachers do nothing they just say 'ignore them' or is will keep an eye out' but they never actually do anything so you can throw that idea out the window" Toby says
"Not helping" Cole says softly punching him in the shoulder
"Neither did that remember keep your hands to your self around the younger ones" Dagwood says
"Eeww Ash is such a messy eater" Veronica says Giggling
"Just like her dad" Jughead laughs as he sees reggie wipe the ketchup off his mouth
"Archie was never messy" Brooklyn says innocently
"Remember Archie isn't her daddy reggie is" I say reminding her
"Oh yea I'm sorry" she apologises for making a mistake
"It's okay I know it can get confusing" reggie says
"Confusing isn't even a word to describe the situation maybe try... horrible or wrong?"Cole says with cheek
"Oi we will be having a talk when we get back" reggie scolds
"Yea so who's house are we going to anyway?" I ask
"Let's go back to ours and we could go swimming in the pool until dark" Cheryl says
"Yea that would be cool" jake says

We all are finished and are on the way back to our cars
"Reggie I swear if you lose grip of that stroller I will kill you because this hill in kinda steep" Veronica scolds
"Same with you jug don't let go" I say and they both sigh
"We aren't gonna let the stroller go we aren't that stupid we have had kids before" reggie says
We giggle and we soon hear bickering from the kids
"What are you guys arguing about now" fangs says sternly
"It's Juliet and Cole and Toby and Sophia" Cody says
"It's about private stuff" Sophia says
"Private my ass you guys are telling us everything" Cheryl says
"Why? My mom and dad don't make me tell them everything" Juliet says
"Stop getting cheeky with your aunts please" Jughead says
"Well I'm sorry but there's no pint on telling anyone because the problem can't be sorted out anyway we just gotta deal with it" Juliet says
"Exactly" Cole agrees
"Right Juliet stop it you have been acting weird all night and it's important to tell someone everything just in case" betty says
"Same with you Cole, you two need to sort this vendetta once and for all" reggie says and we have now reached our cars And drive off

I told just to stop at our house so I could run in and get things like pyjamas for kids, swimsuits, shower stuff, bottles of milk because tonight will probably be a late one
"Do I have to go mom why can't I just stay at home?" Juliet says looking at her phone
"Because you are still part of the family wether you like it or not and you have to come, you and Cole just have to face that v and reggie are together" I tell her being stern
"Ughhhhh" she shouts and looks out the window
"Oii stop acting  like a 5 year old! You are going into a room by yourself when we get to V's" Jughead raises his voice. She mumbles something
"What was that! You better not of said something bad" i say  turning around and pointing a finger at her
"She didn't say bad word she said that it's always her who gets in trouble" Brooklyn says
"Oh stop overreacting juls, we are here now and you can go gossip with your friends on who horrible me and your mom are" Jughead says and parks the car she just storms out and walks through the door
I sigh and get the rest of the kids out
"This is gonna be a long night" I sigh taking Riley on my hip
