Mount Olympus [2]

Jackie

I shrug, "It's enjoyable but horrible at the same time."

,,,,,,,,,,,.,,,,,
Rayah

"Okay," I stand, "Lets go."

Nic

I smile and shrug, "Payback?"

```````````````
Jace

i stand and take her hand, letting her lead me where she wanted to go.

Jackie

I study him, "What kind of payback?"

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Rayah

I lead him back to the house but don't goto Becca's not wanting to gather my stuff just yet, and plop on the couch.

Nic

I shrug, studying her, "Whatever you want."

``````````````````
Jace

We get back home, Alyx and all three toddlers in the living room. Rayah heads to the couch and I crouch beside my brother, looking over my kids.

"Jackie and Nic needed to relax for a while," he whispers, "I locked myself out of my house...so i came here with them, since two of them are yours. They've been pretty good. The twins fought over the toy truck for a while though."

Jackie

I shake my head, leaning back again, "No payback."

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Rayah

I see Riley and she runs to me, jumping up and down. I smile, remembering hearing Logan say 'mommy' back at the hospital. I pull her on my lap, playing with her hair, "Say mommy."

Nic

I shrug and cross my arms, "Your loss."

`````````````
Jace

Alyx studies Rayah for a moment before doing the same with me.

"What did you see?" I whisper, sitting back and allowing Logan to crawl to me.

He shakes his head, "Nothing important. Just be careful. The mind is a fragile thing. I'll warn you before anything happens, but I don't know everything."

Jackie

I smile, "What do you mean?"

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Rayah

Riley sees the huge scar across my forehead from hitting it on the steering wheel and all the gashes on my arms and I swallow, shaking my head. She reaches up to touch them and I flash a smile, "Mommy's fine."

Nic

I suppress a smile, "I just gave you the opportunity to make me pay for your 'horrible' tickling experience. Your loss if you don't take it."

```````````````
Jace

I study Alyx before looking back at Logan, who still seems a bit freaked out by the whole situation from before.

"Tell me, Alyx," I whisper, "The last time you kept things from me... Do not make this a repeat."

Jackie

I frown, looking down, "But I don't wanna hurt you..."

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Rayah

With her touching it, they somehow dissapeared. Wait a second...

I flash a smile, "You picked up one of my powers...didn't you?" I chuckle, hugging her. She just giggles and touches my hair.

Nic

I flash a smile and sigh, "Payback doesn't necessarily mean pain, Jacks. But whatever."

````````````````
Jace

Alyx shakes his head, "Not here. You'll dream it tonight. I'll leave it in your memory."

With that, he disappears with Halee. I take a deep breath and scoop Logan up, taking him to the couch.

Jackie

I shrug and stand, walking over to the kitchen. I take left over steak from the fridge and put it in the microwave.

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Rayah

I smile at Jace and look back at Riley, "Who's a pretty little girl?" I play with her hair.

She giggles, smiling wide, and I nod, "That's right. You are."

Nic

I shake my head at her and sigh, laying down.

`````````````
Jace

I flash a smile at Rayah and Riley, Logan cuddling into my chest. He yawns and closes his eyes.

Jackie

Its finished and I take it out, letting it cool. While it's cooling, I walk back out to Nic and find him sprawled out across the couch. I chuckle at him and sit across from him in the recliner, running a hand through my hair.

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Rayah

I watch Logan yawn and cuddle into his father. Flashing a smile, Riley jumps off my lap and crawls upstairs to our room.

Nic

I close my eyes and sigh, jumping when Alyx ends up in the middle of our room.

"What the hell?" I ask, standing.

He holds out Halee, "Jace kicked me out. I'm going home."

I take my daughter back and he flashes away again.

````````````````
Jace

I watch Riley crawl up the stairs and take a deep breath, "I'm skipping work tomorrow. Won't be able to think."

Jackie

Weird things happen and I just shake my head at it and flash a smile at Halee, "Sup, baby girl?"

She giggles and I lean back, still smiling.

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Rayah

I nod, sighing, "I kind of...have to go to mine," I look at the scar on my arm, "But I'm afraid to drive now."
