"You're not late. The kids are waiting for you."

"The kids, huh…." Reed smiled and walked in to join them. 

Hermes and Artemis were sitting obediently, munching on a big bowl of caramel popcorn. Then, Uncle Reed suddenly popped out in front of them. 

The kids turned their heads, and their expression cheered up immediately, "Uncle Reed!"

"My hero and my Princess!" The kids jumped out of the chair and hugged Uncle Reed's leg and waist. Artemis tried climbing Uncle Reed's trousers, so Reed hurriedly grabbed her and carried Artemis on his arm. 

"You two have been waiting for me?"

"YES!"

"Ahaha, that's good then," Reed sat on the couch reserved for him with the kids, with Hermes on his left and Artemis sitting on his lap. 

Gaius joined with a pack of beer and French fries as another snack as he clicked on the movie, and they started watching.
