Awkward

Lynn arched a brow as she finished her food. Inappropriate...

Arthur didn't catch on. "She never got in trouble with me." He chuckled.

"Because you spoiled her..." Lynn started.

Arthur ignored her. "I just hope you aren't corrupting her or anything." He chuckled as he put his plate aside.

"Are you talking about me?" Lacy asked as she walked back in and perched herself on Phil's lap, being mindful of his plate. Part of it was to aggravate Lynn, the other part was that she liked his lap better than the chairs. lol.

He chuckled a little. "Yep, we were just talking horribly about you." he joked.

"I'm going back to bed then." She smirked and moved to stand.

"Later." he said as he pulled her back down.

"Don't be a party pooper Lace." Arthur laughed a little.

She whined a little as Phil pulled her back. "I'm a sleepy party pooper."

"You can sleep later." he said. "I mean, your parents are still eating, can't make them leave." he chuckled.

"Its my house." She chuckled.

"Technically, it's mine." he joked.

Arthur chuckled as he and Lynn finished their food. "We are obviously not wanted here," he joked.

"Nah, it's cool." he joked.

"We actually should be going." Lynn said quietly, feeling very uncomfortable. "Art needs his rest."

"Now she says I need my rest after forcing me to stay here." He chuckled.

Lacy picked up all of their plates and went into the kitchen to quickly wash the plates out. She also swept.

Phil laughed a bit. "You must be exhausted then."

"I am, but I had to make sure my kid was okay." He chuckled. "Shame I couldn't see Brandon and Allison."

"Well...depending on how long you're going to be in town, just give us a call and stop by. They'll be here."

Arthur chuckled. "I'm actually only here for another day, it wasn't a long stay. Maybe another time." He nodded as he stood up and handed Lynn her coat. "It was good seeing you again."

"Ah well alright. Nice seeing you again as well." he nodded.

Arthur shook his hand before starting to lead Lynn out, who muttered a good bye as well. "Tell Lace I'll call her tonight to see how she's doing." He nodded before they saw themselves out.

He nodded and closed the door. "Lacyyyy, they left. Nap time."

Lacy had finished sweeping and came out of the kitchen with a tired expression on her face, walking towards him. "Do you promise?" She chuckled pitifully.

"I promise." he chuckled. "You look so tired." he said, then decided to pick her up....bridal style...and carry her to their room. "Let me put these muscles to work." he joked.

She didn't fight it like she normally would, just placed an arm around his neck for balance and rested her head on his shoulder. "Work away." She chuckled slightly.

"Oh I am." he said as he went up the stairs and to their room, gently putting her down on their bed.

She shrugged his hoodie off and threw it somewhere to the side, she'd pick it up later. Shw yawned and got under the covers, holding her arms out to him with a pout and a whine.

He chuckled a bit and took off his shirt, throwing it somewhere as well and then crawled under the covers with her, wrapping his arms around her. "Sleep for as long as you'd like."

"Gonna sleep until Brandon graduates high school." She chuckled a little, settling her head on his chest.
