"Mommy, mommy, can I go and feed Meggie now?" asked Joy excitedly as Natasha looked down at her.

"Alright my darling you can" said Natasha with a smile.

"Yayyy" said Joy as she giggled and Natasha got a plastic bowl as she poured some broccoli into it.

"Broccoli?" asked Joy in confusion.

"Yes it's good for chickens" said Natasha.

"You don't want Meggie to be eating the same thing over and over again, she will get tired of it" said Natasha as she smiled.

"Ahhh okay mommy, do you want to come with me and feed her?" asked Joy with a smile.

"No my darling, I have to go finish up something, you can go on your own, remember to wear your coat, and be careful" said Natasha with a smile as she handed the bowl full of broccoli to Joy.

"Okay Mommy" said Joy as she giggled and she ran out of the kitchen as Natasha smiled as she walked out of the kitchen.

It would seem that Joy's new favourite pastime after dinner was going to feed Meggie.

Natasha could not lie, it made her happy to see Joy so happy, maybe having that chicken around was not so bad, but at the same time, Natasha was not going to allow Ernest talk her into something like this again.

Natasha walked to the living room as she saw Lulu watching tv and she smiled.

"Natasha, you are just in time, you have to watch this movie with me come on" said Lulu as she stood up and pulled Natasha to sit down beside her.

"I was actually going to finish working on something" said Natasha.

"Oh that can wait Natasha really, you need to relax, watch a movie with me please…." Said Lulu as she pleaded.

"Pretty pleaseeee" said Lulu as she fluttered her eyes and Natasha laughed.

"Oh alright, fine" said Natasha.

"Yayyyy" said Lulu as she laughed.

"So what is the movie about?" asked Natasha as she looked at the tv.

"I don't even know" said Lulu as she laughed.

"But you are watching it??" asked Natasha in confusion.

"Yes, because I just tuned in, and the movie is about to end, I don't even get what's going on, all I know is that there is a fight, and this guy is trying to rescue the princess or whatever" said Lulu as she looked at the tv.

"Lulu" called Natasha.

"Yes" said Lulu with a smile as she looked at Natasha.

"If you don't understand the movie, or even know what's going on, then why did you ask me to watch it with you?" asked Natasha as she did not get this at all.

"Well that's because I wanted us to be confused together" said Lulu with a bright smile on her face as Natasha shook her head.

"Lulu, you can be annoying sometimes, you know that" said Natasha.

"I know Natasha, and I also know that you love me too much to be upset with me" said Lulu as she laughed and Natasha shook her head as she laughed.

"You can act like such a child sometimes" said Natasha.

"Speaking of children, that trainer of yours Benjamin, he's something" said Lulu.

"What's wrong?" asked Natasha.

"He's good and professional like you said, but he's just so uptight and annoying, as if he was forced to be my trainer" said Lulu.

"He kind of was" said Natasha as she laughed.

"He might have been, but he should act a bit nicer though" said Lulu.

"You want me to talk to him?" asked Natasha.

"No, no, I'm not a tattletale" said Lulu.

"Then why would you tell me Lulu?" asked Natasha.

"Because I'm not talking to you as my sister in law, or as his boss, but as my friend, and my friend doesn't need to get involved" said Lulu.

"Fair point" said Natasha.

"Yes, you don't have to worry, I am going to break him, but in a good way" said Lulu as she smiled.

"Right, Lulu, right…" said Natasha as in the same moment the front door opened and Dom walked in as he walked into the living room.

"Welcome back oh dear brother of mine" said Lulu with a smile.

"Thanks Lulu, how was your day?" asked Dom with a smile.

"Good, good" said Lulu with a smile.

"That's nice, hi Natasha" said Dom as he looked at Natasha.

"Hi" replied Natasha.

"Where is Joy?" asked Dom.

"In the garden feeding Meggie" said Natasha.

"Alright, I will go see her" said Dom as he walked out of the room.

"We aren't even paying attention to this movie" said Natasha as she looked at the tv as Lulu laughed.

…

"Daddy *yawn*, can I get Meggie a little chicken bed?" asked Joy as she yawned and Dom tucked her in.

"Sure you can my princess" said Dom as he smiled and Joy yawned.

"Go to sleep now my princess, goodnight and have sweet dreams" said Dom he smiled and he gave her a kiss on the forehead as Joy had already fallen fast asleep.

Dom got up as he switched off the lights and closed the door behind him as he walked down the stairs as he entered into the living room where Natasha was sitting down.

"Is she asleep?" asked Natasha as Dom nodded and he sat down.

"She is" said Dom as he yawned, he was tired to say the least.

"Dom, what's wrong, why are you yawning so much?" asked Lulu as she walked into the room with a tray.

"I'm just tired Lulu" said Dom.

"What happened, did you run a marathon or what?" asked Lulu.

"I probably did, I had to do an inspection of one of the warehouses" said Dom.

"Which one?" asked Lulu.

"The one in Isletone" said Dom.

"Gosh, the first one Grandfather bought and expanded four times?" asked Lulu.

"Yes that one, I hadn't ever been there since I became CEO, If I'm being honest, it's half the size of a football stadium or even more" said Dom.

"Gosh, that is big, anyway, luckily, I have the answer to all our problems" said Lulu with a smile.

"Which is?" asked Natasha in confusion.

"Hot chocolate!!" said Lulu with a smile as she handed Natasha a cup of hot chocolate, and she handed Dom his, and took hers as she sat down beside Natasha.

"Only you would think that hot chocolate is the answer to all your problems" said Dom as he laughed and he shook his head.

"Oh you know I'm right, right Natasha?" asked Lulu as she looked at Natasha.

"I mean, I have to agree that it is" said Natasha as she laughed.

"Of course you agree with her" said Dom as he drank his hot chocolate.

"Guys do you remember the time we all went camping?" asked Lulu with a smile.

"Oh no, don't remind me about that" said Natasha as she laughed.

"Why?" asked Lulu as she laughed.

"Because Charlie forgot to pack the tents, that's why" said Dom as he scoffed.

"I don't know why Charlie was in charge of packing the tents in the first place" said Natasha as she laughed.

"That's because Michael was in charge of packing all the food, Nine was in charge of making sure we were ready with extra gas and everything, which left Charlie with one thing, packing the tents and he failed at that" said Dom as he laughed.

"But luckily Nine didn't trust Charlie, and he packed two tents" said Lulu as she laughed.

"Yeah he did, and you were very naughty back then and you wanted to sleep under the stars, so we shared the tents, and Charlie slept outside for obvious reasons" said Natasha as she laughed.

"Oh yeah, I remember that, gosh I miss those times, just the six of us, since Lia hates camping" said Lulu as Natasha laughed.

"Guys, we should go out camping again" said Lulu happily.

"No" said Dom as he shook his head.

"Oh you are no fun Dom, what happened to you, you used to be so fun, and now you are bland" said Lulu.

"Lulu, there's just something about being a parent that makes you no longer feel as exuberant as before" said Dom.

"Oh you are lying, right Natasha?" asked Lulu as she looked at Natasha.

"Actually he's right" said Natasha as Dom looked at her.

"There's just something about having a child that makes you slow down, and thinking more maturely" said Natasha.

"Oh no way, if it's like that then I am not going to have any children till I'm thirty" said Lulu as Dom laughed.

"Well you might never know Lulu, things don't always end up like you think they will" said Natasha.

"Maybe you will end up with someone who makes you change your mind" said Natasha.

"No, I am done, nope, I am not going to end up like you two" said Lulu as she stood up and walked away as Dom and Natasha laughed as they were alone and they both stopped laughing as Dom looked at Natasha and she looked at him.

"Natasha… if I'm being honest, I miss when we were still friends" said Dom as he sighed, he missed just talking to her, laughing like they used to, all that had changed now, they were worse than enemies, their reactions were cold, everything was cold.

"Well just remember that you are the reason we are no longer friends" said Natasha with a quick smile as she stood up.

"I'm sorry Natasha really" said Dom seriously.

"Just know that things can never go back to the way it was, never" said Natasha as she walked out the living room and Dom sighed, he hated that she was so right.
