An Innocent Push
by Rhiannon and AJ
Later that day, Abbey was silently eating her dinner. She refused to look up
from her plate. She refused to look at Jed. To carry on a conversation with
him. She felt so guilty for saying no. She wanted to scream yes at the top
of her lungs, but for the stupidest reason, she had said no.
"What the crap?" Brennan broke the silence. "Mom are you mad at the
President?"
"Rodent's right, there's something wrong with the two of you. So spill the
beans." Ariel chimed in.
"It pains me to say this," Jason said. "But I agree with the two of them."
"Kids," Abbey sighed, starring at her food.
"Mom," They replied in unison.
"Leave your mother alone." Jed spoke up.
"What the crap is wrong with you two?" Brennan pressed.
"Drop it." Abbey ordered as she ran out of the room.
"Way to go, Rodent."
"Crap, it isn't my fault." Brennan glanced at Jed. "Mr. President, what's
wrong with Mom?"
"I wish I knew." Jed breathed in. "I just asked her to marry-"
"YES!" The voices called out.
"Actually, her answer was no." Jed pointed out.
"What the crap?" The unified voices remarked.

"Mom?" Jason stepped into his mother's hotel room to find her crying on her
bed.
"What is it Jason?" Abbey sniffled.
"Wanna talk about it?"
"Talk about what?"
"Mom, the Geek told us that he asked you." Ariel's voice entered the room.
"Why the crap did you say no?" Brennan asked.
"I miss your father." Abbey said. "I miss your father a lot, and it scares
me that I'm already in love with someone new."
"Why'd you say no, Mom?" Jason climbed up on Abbey's bed.
"You guys are for this?" She asked.
"Duh!" They proclaimed.
