16•Not in my House[1]

(AN:You guys really do care, 🤧🤧🥺, i actually shed some mainly tears reading what you guys said last chapter, I think it was a phase, I was feeling down but I'm actually gonna give it my best. WHILE most chapters will be plot I will try to do my best and make some fillers, Im pretty unimaginative so making fillers is hard but im gonna try my best and make some. But don't worry I will at least put 2 chapters every week even if I feel down)

Another normal day for the Dunphy Family was happening today, Alex and Haley were arguing, Phil was doing something stupid to start the day off as with Luke and Claire was going through the devices

Phil:"Beautiful morning, isn't it? It's a shame you have to work, huh? Yeah.Anyway, I'd like a large sausage and pepperoni-"

Haley:"It's my stuff, okay?Just keep your hands off my stuff!"

Haley and Alex were entering the kitchen as Phil had to put his pizza on hold

Phil:"Hey!"

Alex:"I didn't put my hands on your stuff."

Phil:"Hey! Just a second, Derek. What is the problem?"

Haley:"Alex read my journal."

Alex:"I did not! Why would I even want to read your stupid journal?"

Haley:"Because it contains the details of a life, and you barely have one!"

——-Commentary———

Alex was laying down on her bed with books spread out and her laptop in front of her

Alex:"If I didn't have a life then explain how I wouldn't be here?"

She tapped her head and raised her eyebrow as she scoffed

Alex:"But seriously, I do have a life, I think five dates? In our four month relationship, and two of those we went to laser tag and to the movies so Ha!, I'm not boring"

Haley entered the room as she walked towards her bed while chuckling. Picking up her purple jacket, she started to head out but stopped in the door way

Haley:"Please, if you guys wanna do something fun, I suggest going to a party. At least there you might actually not embarrass yourself with everyone high"

——Commentary end——-

And with that Haley walked off as Alex only groaned out and was yelling from behind her

Alex:"Jokes on you! I already went on more dates then you did with Dylan who loved that jungle lady!"

Haley was already gone as Alex just huffed out as she left. She took out the lastest new phone that was given to her as a Christmas present from Will. While she was extremely embarrassed she couldn't get him anything incredible, Will said he would gladly accept anything that she got for him because after all, it's the thought that counts.

Phil:"Sorry. My daughters.You got kids? Oh. What grade are you in?"

Claire:"Phil!"

Phil:"Oh, that's my wife, Claire."

Claire came in hurriedly as she put the laptop down on the table island, displaying a picture of a naked women with the biggest boobs Claire has ever seen

Claire:"Luke was using my computer for this."

Phil:"I'm gonna have to,uh, call you back.

Claire:"He told me he needed it to do homework, and then I find this,a-a picture...of a topless woman, driving a tractor."

Phil:"Okay. Um- Uh, first of all, that's a combine, not a tractor."

Explaining what it actually was because he was the one responsible for leaving it on there, but Claire didn't care as she closed the laptop angrily , obviously that wasn't the most important issue

Claire:"Phil! It is smut, and our 10-year-old is looking at smut! It's disgusting!"

Phil:"Completely unacceptable."

Phil nodded as he looked at the camera with wide eyes. Claire sped walked out as she started to grab her coat from her hanger and was putting it on with Phil right behind her

Phil:"Where are you going?"

Claire:"I'm going to pick up Luke from his sleepover. We need to talk to him about this now."

Phil:"Claire, this is a very delicate situation. That all boys go through. Manny or even Will still do this"

Claire:"Mm-hmm-What?!"

Phil:"Well I mean, not manny because we all know he's to mature for that but also not Will because he already passed that stage or is getting into it?"

Phil."Anyways Luke is our focus, so If we don't handle it right, Luke might end up having an unhealthy attitude about sex... or agribusiness. We'll talk about it when he gets home."

Claire knowing Phil was right, started to take off her jacket and put it back on the hanger. She knew because when she was once a teenager, and knowing she was also curious back in her days.

Claire:"Okay, fine. But I am telling him that every time he looks at porn, God kills a puppy."

Phil:"Maybe I should be the one to talk to him."

Knowing he's guilty, Phil tries to resolve it by himself without letting Claire know it was him. And like that, another normal day unfolded.

While that was happening Will was coming down a flight of shiny white marble stairs with the railing being a silver color. He didn't get the color scheme but it was his mom that decided to hire people to get their house done so he couldn't have a say due to him "not seeing" or something like that by his mom.

The food was already done as he sat down at the dining table with his mom being to the right of him.Saying good morning, he began to eat his breakfast which was an country omelette and some water.

Lucy:"So, how's it going? Anything exciting happening?"

Will:"Well, I did get a text from Gloria saying that she needs my help in removing an "It"

Will air quoted the last part of his sentence as Lucy looked at him weirdly.

Lucy:"Why does Gloria have your phone number?"

Will:"Alex gave it to her, apparently I'm gonna have to steal Jay's dog butler"

Lucy was now even more confused as Will chuckled and waved his hand.

Will:"It's a doll that Jay won during a casino trip. Gloria says that it's like the devil, a mixture of man and an unholy beast"

Lucy:"Gloria is funny, I like her because her boobs-"

Will:"Really mom? I don't feel comfortable talking about that sort of thing when the women who gave birth to me is right here"

She chuckled as she ruffled his hair and went back to eating as Will father came in wearing a suit.

Will:"Hey dad"

Dylan:"What's going on? You both have grins on your faces"

Greeting him usually, Dylan nodded and noticed the atmosphere. Trying his best he made some small talk

Dylan:"So Will,I heard this Alex from your mother a lot"

Will was surprised as he didn't think he would

Know of her considering his focus is almost on work.

Dylan:"Don't be so surprised, it's only natural to know what kind of girl my son takes interest in, so what's she like?"

Will:"Well she's an overachiever, intelligent, competitive and sometimes a bit mischievous."

(AN:I just watched Alex therapy video and what do you guys think? Should I address her problems early(like in this season) or way later when they're in high school?)

That was all true, he learned about her competitive during the laser tag date and how she used her surroundings, light and reflection of her glasses to win a round against him and she was mischievous to her family and sometimes to Will as she would like to play physical harmless jokes on them.

Dylan:"Sounds like this girl has your heart"

Will:"That is true"

Dylan:"Well while I'm barely here and don't show it, I'm happy for you. I know work has been keeping me from spending time with you but I would like to spend more time with you and your mother and with getting to know this Alex"

Will looked at his father as he had a small smile

Dylan:"The way you described her is exactly how I would describe your mother, but it took me 12 years to find her. So Will, even if she isn't the one, you'll find her one day"

Will:"Thanks dad but I feel like I got lucky from the start"

Lucy and Dylan laughed a bit as they nodded.

Dylan:"Indeed, from the way your mother talks about you and Alex when she sees you guys, it's like I could almost picture myself there and that is something special so fight for it and don't lose"

Will nodded as Dylan gave him a smile with him returning it. For once they were enjoying a warm meal together and Will liked it.

There was no distractions as neither of their phones were buzzing as they were talking while laughing

It was a peaceful atmosphere but the same could not be said in Cam and Mitchell household as they were currently trying to figure out how to get a gardener out of their bedroom.

Cameron:"Amigo? We can't help you if you won't come out."

Gardener:"Gracias por invitarme a su casa y apiadarse de mis lágrimas."(Thank you for inviting me to your house and feel sorry of my tears)

The Gardner answerd with some sniffles as he was in their room by accident when Cameron spoke the wrong words in Spanish.

Mitchell:"What'd he say?"

Cameron:"Something "house" something."

Backing away from the door, Mitchell didn't have time for this as he entered the kitchen with Cameron behind him

Mitchell:"Come on. The show starts in a half hour, and we still have to pick up Manny."

Cameron:"Can we just-"

Mitchell:"Come on. Move this thing along!"

Arguing in the kitchen, Mitchell was already frustrated about Cam problem to help anyone who came across so he was already having a headache with this new problem

Cameron:"Okay, this man is in crisis. He could have a family health issue or a personal health issue or a financial matter."

Mitchell:"Stop. You're getting all this from "something house something"? Let's just call Gloria and have her deal with it, okay?"

Cameron:"It" is a human being, Mitchell."

Mitchell:"Named Caesar Salad."

Cameron:"Okay."

Mitchell groaned out as Cameron was catching onto something.

Cameron:"What's going on with you?"

Mitchell:"Cam, you-you always do this.It's like you're incapable of hearing anyone's sad story... without making it your job to fix it.And then, my needs-my needs come second."

Walking out into the living room, Cam followed him as he didn't see his point of how this was a bad thing. Mitchell was fixing Lily outfit that she was wearing as she was currently in the seat to go out.

Cameron:"Your needs right now...are a puppet show. This man could have lost his brother in a cable car accident."

Mitchell:"You understood "casa.""

Cameron:"Okay, fine. If it'll prove to you...that I'm not the obsessive helpaholic that you make me out to be,let's go to the puppet show."

Mitchell:"Cam"

Cameron:"Let's go"

Trying to show how Mitchell was wrong, he was being petty in not hearing him and agreeing with him even though a second ago, he wanted to stay but it didn't work out for him as when he opened the door to leave, there stood a Latina lady in a wedding dress

Bride:"Ay. ¿Dónde está mi novio? Su camión está parqueado afuera."(Oh, where's my boyfriend?, his truck is parked outside)

Cameron:"I think this has something to do with the gardener."

Mitchell with his hands on his hips replied sarcastically

Mitchell:"You think?

Cameron:"Just down the hall to the right."

Bride:"Ay. Gracias, gracias.Perdón."

Mitchell pointed to the room as the women just passed them. With him stealing glances at her as he moved slightly towards to the left so he could hear whatever drama might unfold.

Cameron:"Okay, let's go."

Mitchell:"No, please. I know it's killing you not to get back there in the middle of that."

Mitchell plan backfired as he was also curious of what was about unfold but, Cameron already holding Lily car seat in his hands just shook his head

Cameron:"Oh, no, no, no, no. We are going. These folks can find their own way out.And now you'll know that I'm not a manic Mother Teresa out

there collecting lost souls."

Opening the door, they were greeted by a couple who were dressed formally as they spoke Spanish with Cameron letting them in as Mitchell pointed to the room.

He didn't know why he did that but he didn't care as he headed out with Cameron putting Lily in the back of the car as Mitchell got in the driver seat.

Starting it up, Mitchell was waiting for Cameron to get in but when he was putting on his seatbelt, he saw Cameron going back into the house with a sheepish smile as Mitchell just huffed out and backed out of the drive way
