Late Father's Day

"Damn." Lacy sighed as she walked into the house. She'd made the last minute decision to come home for Father's Day for a day or so and ended up in the airport all day with delays. Then it took forever to get a cab home because she'd given them to families that needed them more than her. She eventually got home around dinner time and felt bad because she wanted to be there in the morning. She noticed no one was in the house and shrugged to herself, starting to drag her bags upstairs to her room before heading to the bathroom to shower.

Punk came in about ten minutes later with the kids, after spending some time at his Mom's house. She took him for lunch and then they spent time at her house. He then heard the water running from upstairs. Huh. "Guys, go to the playroom. I need to check something upstairs." He said. He didn't know Lacy was there, so he was gonna make sure nobody was in his house, lol.

"Okay." Brandon shrugged and they all ran off.

He headed upstairs and checked all the rooms, then went into his room. He spotted Lacy's bags and let out a sigh of relief, lol. "Lace?" He knocked on the door.

"Come in." Lacy said from inside the shower.

He went into the bathroom. "Hey." he said. "This is a surprise."

"Hi, honey." Lacy said as she got out of the shower and and put her robe on before coming out to see him.

He chuckled. "Hi." he said as he greeted her with a kiss. "I wasn't expecting you back for a while."

"I wanted to surprise you earlier this morning but.. it didn't go that away, obviously. Happy Father's Day."

"That's okay and thank you." he said as he kissed her cheek. "When did you get in?"

"A few minutes ago." she said. "I'm all wet." she chuckled.

He kept the dirty comment to himself, lol. "I see that." he chuckled and looked around for a towel and then handed it to her. "Here you go darling."

She chuckled and took the towel to dry her hair off. "I wanted to be here to surprise you this morning, but I suck."

"That's okay." he told her. "You managed to surprise me anyway."

"Yeah, you look soooo surprised." she chuckled.

"Well I was a little thrown off before, I thought somebody broke into the house or something." he chuckled.

"Well it's just lil' ol me." she snorted.

"Good." he chuckled as he pulled her to him and kissed her forehead. "How long are you here for?"

"Three days." she said. "Not long, but I wanted to be here for you."

"I'm good with that." he said as he kissed her cheek. "I'm happy you're home."

"Glad to be home." she ran her hands over his shoulders. "What'd you do today?"

"Not much really. The kids made me breakfast and then Mom treated us to lunch and we stayed at her place for a while."

"I wish I could have been there."

"It's alright." he said. "We can do that all over again tomorrow." he chuckled. "The kids are down in the playroom, if you wanna say hi. They have to go to bed soon."

"I can guarantee you they won't sleep if they find out I'm here." She chuckled.
