"Give me one more reason why I should never make a change."

Chester's P.O.V

Everyone is sitting at the dinner table, passing around pots and pans of food.

"I didn't know what you guys would like, so I made mashed potatoes and fried chicken." Lindsay says

"I also made a cake!" Philip says

"You helped put the ingredients in and mixed, you didn't get a burn when you were taking it out the oven, which by the way, was your fault." Lindsay says and she dumps some mashed potatoes on her plate

"The phone call said Washington D.C! I thought it was Obama!" Grace laughs and I smile a little.

"How'd you two meet?" Grace asks them, taking a bite out of her mashed potatoes.

"Well, I was in line at a supermarket buying some things, and he had the NERVE to cut me." Lindsay says, poking Philip with her fork.

"In my defense, there was a lot of space between her and the person in front of her." Philip says

"But anyways, we argued for a couple of minutes about how he was being selfish and ignorant. And then he asked me on a date."

"I thought she was really pretty and I could tell she was very driven."

"Did you accept the date right away?" I ask and she shakes her head

"I said, 'why would I go on a date with a cutter?' And he said-"

"Would you rather go on a date with a cheater who lies or a cutter who is about to buy you a rose." Philip finishes off and Lindsay smiles.

"He actually bought me a flower. It's plastic, but it did good for all the years."

"You still have it?" Grace asks

"Yeah. It's on my bedside table." Lindsay blushes a little and Philip kisses her cheek

"Than we started to date, got married and has Philip III or we just call him Trey."

"That's amazing." Grace says

"How'd you two meet?" Lindsay asks

"At the school we work at. It was love at first sight." I say and Grace smiles

"I don't know about him, but for me, it wasn't love at first sight. Have you seen Chester?" Grace jokes and everyone laughs.

"Was labor painful?" Grace asks Lindsay

"One of the worst and best things you will experience." Lindsay says.

"We had to do a home birth cause we couldn't make it to the hospital in time. It was...something." Philip says and Lindsay laughs

"Philip did great though! He wasn't a little bitch about it." Lindsay says and Grace laughs quite loudly.

"Do you know the gender of your babies?" Philip asks and we both shake our heads

"My friend wants to do the gender reveals at a baby shower. So we have no clue." Grace says

"Aw cmon, that's no fun." Philip says and Lindsay nudges him

"Philip!" She exclaims "He doesn't like surprises."

"I don't. I wanted to know that Trey was a boy right after she told me that she was pregnant."

"I think it's cool you guys want to wait. It makes it more fun!" Lindsay says

"And more stressful." Philip says and Lindsay rolls her eyes

"You guys are polar opposite. How does that work out?" I ask

"Love. I guess." Lindsay says and Philip nudges her and they both laugh
"It wasn't love at first sight like you two. I was forced to love him."

"Oh shut up. You married me didn't you?" Philip says and Lindsay shrugs

"Eh?" Lindsay says and he fake tackles her and we all laugh.

"Seconds?" Lindsay asks

*~*~*~*~*~*~*

We leave Philip's and Lindsay's place with out stomach fills and two new friends.

"So what do you think?" I ask

"I love them." Grace says and I laugh

"They were so amazing huh?" I ask and Grace nods

"I think I might leave you for Lindsay." Grace says and I laugh

We get back home and both of the girls are on the couch.

"Hey. We were waiting for you. Well I was." Veronica says and Vanessa sighs

"I'm always please by your presence it's okay." Vanessa says and I laugh.

"I just wanted to ask Grace something."

Grace's P.O.V

"Oh sure. What do you need?" Chester goes back upstairs and I sit in between the two girls.

"What's the problem?"

"So, there's this guy that comes to Pinkberry occaonsially and he is really cute and I want to ask him out and I don't know how." Veronica blurts out and I smile

"Darling, I'm not a guy. I don't know what they would like."

"I know, but you locked down Chester so I wanted to know how."

"Darling, just be yourself. If you act like someone you aren't, then he will be dating a lie and you want your relationship to be as true and honest."

"So I should...?"

"Tell him you think he's cute and ask to see him after work hours. If he declines than there is other fish in the sea and if he accepts than don't get pregnant." Veronica giggles and Vanessa laughs

"What about you Vanessa? Have anybody on your brain?"

"No. Haven't found any anybody. Maybe I'm not looking in the right places, or for the right genders." She says, mumbling the last part

"Why not? Who cares if you date a girl. It's 2016, do what you want."

"You are right."

"I'm always right."
