A Pick Me Up?
Maddie sat with Ajay by the front window of their house, waiting for her Dad to pick them up. It was the weekend and they planned that every weekend, they would go with their Dad and spend time with him. The last time, their father was busy with work and wasn't able to get them...then the weekend before that, something about his flights going wrong came about. Anyway, so they waited and were excited. Ellie decided to call to see where he was. "Hey, they're ready." she said as she talked on the phone. "...what? Seriously again? You promised them this weekend." she said as she let out an annoyed sigh. She was obviously frustrated. "You can't keep doing this to them, it's not fair to get their hopes up like that. I know it's work, but come on, you couldn't find a way to make this work?" she looked over at the kids, then shook her head. "Whatever okay. When you have an open spot for your children in your schedule..be sure to let me know." she said as she hung up.
After she hung up the phone, she tried to get as calm as she could before walking over to Maddie and Ajay. She sat by them on the floor, sitting indian style. "Guys, that was Daddy on the phone..."
"Is he almost here yet?" Maddie asked happily. "I wanna show him the new toys I got." she grinned.
"He coming Mama?" Ajay asked.
Ellie sighed and gave them a small smile. "I'm sorry guys, but Daddy has to work again."
Maddie's smile immediately dropped and she frowned, tears forming in her eyes. "But he promised!"
"I know sweetie, but work needs him and he has to do what they say."
She started crying...which made Ajay pout. "I don't like his work."
Ellie frowned and held Maddie and Ajay in her arms, while they sat on her lap. "I know." she said as she kissed their cheeks. "But hey, we can try to have fun, just us. Maybe we'll go out and check out the parks." she offered, since they haven't really explored around the area yet.
Maddie shook her head. "Don't wanna." she sniffled.
Ellie pushed some of Maddie's hair away from her face, kissing her cheek again as she tried to calm her. She was going to say something, but then heard the doorbell. "I'll be right back guys." she said as she went to open it.

Scott stood on the other side of the door a little nervously. He wanted to take Maddie and Ajay out today, but only if Ellie would let him. He kind of.. maybe.. wanted to take Ellie out, too. He hoped that he wouldn't view him as a creep or anything, but he actually liked hanging out with her kids and he wanted to get to know her better as well. When the door opened, he let out a small grin. "Um.. hi, Ellie."

Once Ellie saw him, she smiled back...obviously not expecting him to be there, it was nice. "Hey Scott." she said. "This is a nice surprise, what brings you by?"

"I wanted to know if it was okay to take you and the kids out today," he said a little nervously. "If that's not stepping over any boundaries."

"Aw well, that's perfectly fine with me...but uh..." she said as she looked back at the kids, who were still upset and sulking. "...I'm not really sure if Maddie and Ajay will want to go out."

Colt looked with Ellie and saw the kids sulking. "Guys? Is that bad to see me?" He laughed a little.

"Their wonderful Dad canceled on them again." she said with a sigh, then stepped aside. "Sorry, I'm rude...come in." she chuckled.

"It's no problem... if you want, I can come back another day, but I'll say hi. Madison? Ajay?" He called for them.

Ajay...since he didn't really know why Maddie was sad and just sulked because she did, cheered up almost immediately as he saw Colt. "Scotty!" he giggled as he crawled over to him.
Maddie did cheer up a little, but wasn't as happy and hyper like the last time Colt saw her. "Hi Scotty." she said as she went over to him.

"Hey, Buddy." Scott laughed a little as he leaned down to pick them both up. "What Maddie, not too happy to see me? My breath smell bad? I brushed my teeth, I promise I did."

Maddie giggled a little and shook her head. "I'm happy, but...I was supposed to go with my Daddy today and he can't pick me up anymore." she frowned.

Scott frowned a little. "Well.. hey, I'm no Daddy, but would you like it if I took you out with your brother and your mom today?"

"Maybe we should ask your mommy if it's okay if we can all go to the park."

Maddie looked over at Ellie, pouting and giving her puppy eyes. "Mommy, please? I'm really sad todayyyy..."
Ellie chuckled and shook her head in amusement. "Yes Maddie, we can go."

"Oh okay." Maddie said as she went to get her sweater that was hanging by the door...which she couldn't reach "Mommy, help." Ellie chuckled and gave her the sweater, helping her put on hers and Ajay's...then helped them put on their shoes too. Once she got them all ready, she put on a jacket for herself. "Okay, we're all set."

"Lead the way, we trust you."
"Mhm, trust you." Maddie nodded.
Ajay was just excited to go to the park. "Park!" he grinned.

"Sweet." He chuckled and they got in the car. Scott ended up passing the parks that they lived by and eventually stopped at Navy Pier, that had a lot of rides and activities for them to do. "Here we are."

"I don't know about forever, but we can play around for a little while." Scott chuckled and got out of the car, helping the kids out before going around to open Ellie's door for her.

Maddie pouted, but shrugged anyway.
"Thanks." Ellie said as she got out of the car, then grabbed a hold of Maddie's hand.
