Howie entered the house, Mason was already up and about, crawling all over the place "Hey there..." he said as the child clung to his pants. Picking him up, he walked towards the voices in the kitchen.

"We are in here Howard" he heard Kristen say, remembering that when Kristen called him Howard it wasn't a good thing. Kevin had probably already informed her about the whole AJ and Millie dilemma. Entering the place he found Kevin and Kristen seated at the table, both held matching cups.

"Hi there..." she raised her eyebrow.

"Morning?" he tried saying, but it came out more like a question. "You're up early, it's barely seven in the morning." Howie tried avoiding the conversation that his two new parents were waiting to have with him "Here..." he handed Mason over to Kevin "I'm gonna lay down, I'm pretty tired" he said walking away.

"Howard you can't keep avoiding this...you have to face it...face AJ, and Millie. It was horrible what you did, but we all know that you're not like that. Do you have feelings for her?" she tilted her head waiting for a response.

Howie stood staring at Kevin and then Kristen, his hands stuffed deep into his pockets. "Uh...I think so. Listen, I faced it last night, and I'm not sure how to make it better, but I'm still thinking. Alright?" he faked a smile and turned back around.

"Oh...one more thing, Kevin and I are meeting Nick and Sarah for dinner tonight. Thought you might want to come." she smiled.

"No thanks, I'm really tired and I think I'm just gonna sleep tonight." He headed up to his room and laid down instantly, closing his eyes.

Millie woke up to a sharp pain in her belly, she gasped looking around, but found herself laying on both sides of her bed. "Was I dreaming?" she asked out loud. She laid her head back on the pillow, taking in the traces of cologne left on the pillow. As she laid there, the memories of the night came back to her, and she shook her head shamefully.

"Oh no!" she laughed to herself, but went back to groaning as she felt her stomach cramping.

"Hey there...sleeping beauty." her fathers voice made her jump, "So Prince Charming slept over?" he asked, his arms crossed over his chest and his left eyebrow raised.

"He was just bringing me home dad and I asked him to stay with me. I was scared that you weren't here and well I was REALLY wasted. Nothing happened I promise. That was Howie by the way." she clarified with a huge smile "Isn't he cute?"

"Uh...I guess...he's a smart man leaving before anyone could supposedly see him." there was a familiar knock at the door, my father shook his head "I hear trouble coming" he grunted as he headed down the hall to open the door. As he opened there stood Sarah all smiles like always "More clothes than last night" he smiled back at her.

"Well it's daytime Mr. Nunez, the freaks come out at night. Is Millie up..." he just nodded as she made her way to Millie's room "Hello there party girl who showed all her ASSetts to the world." she giggled as she sat on the bed. "Hm...smells like a man in here?" she teased.

Millie sat in the closet doorway, and looked up at her "Ha...ha...very funny! He just stayed here and nothing happened. I was being an idiot and crying ok. A guy doesn't want to sleep with a girl that is weeping the whole time." she continued to look through the closet.

"Introduce me to the men you know, cause the ones I know don't really care." she giggled. "So I heard that you and AJ made out and Howie was so pissed off he knocked him on his ass? What's up with that?"

"Nothing, AJ's acting really weird. He said he loves me and that he still wants to marry me"

"Hm...sounds like quite the dilemma there. I opt for Howie but it's your choice." Sarah scorned while Millie stood up and struggled with a pair of jeans "Wow girl that zipper doesn't go up" she giggled at Millie's face, her tongue sticking out from the side of her mouth as she sucked in her belly and tugged at the zipper.
