"Daniel... How is- How is Atticus doing?" Aaron knew that talking about Atticus was a delicate topic. Atticus was born very early, at 5 months... And for the first 4 years he wouldn't talk... But when Peyton's blindness came back, he started trying, he loved Peyton as like his second mother, she was the one who got him. Because she had to go through treatments too. But now that she was back in the dark again, he realized that the only way she couldn't help him was by seeing him... And now jer ability to see is gone, thats when he started trying, he tried because he wanted his relationship with his aunt back... And because of his attachment to Peyton, he grew a respect for Atka... She kept her safe when she was alone. Even though Atka was a big dog, she is a German Shepard. They still got along. "Yeah, actually Atticus is doing good... Maya and I have really seen a difference in the past year... He really is beginning to make some friends at school, and he has one good friend. Shang, Shang is actualy very quiet, and she is very sweet. She reminds me of Maya, very serious but knows how to have fun... She came over and... Well... Their hands were blue for 3 days. (trying not to laugh)" Aaron looked shocked. "What did you give them to turn their hands blue... How are you a parent. Jeez." (laughing). "Okay I didn't know that acrylic paint stained skin. I just let them put their hand prints on a wooden board... then it kinda went south. And the paint stayed not only on the board but on their hands." (Laughing). "Yeah Maya made me sleep on the couch that night." (Laughing) By the time they got back it was 2 pm. Maya and Peyton were sitting on the couch. "Hello Ladies... where's my nefew? Is he napping upstairs?" Maya and Peyton started laughing... Maya tried to calm herself, and after 30 seconds of dying from laughter, she finally said, "Oh, he's napping... But not upstairs." Aaron and Daniel looked at each other while Maya and Peyton were laughing. Peyton said, "Okay, don't hate us... But turn around."
(Dying of laughter). When The boys turned around they saw Atticus curled up next to Atka in her dog bed. Then the too were laughing. Daniel just stood there laughing in disbelief asking "Why... What were you 2 thinking... Hahaha... Why?!?" Somehow this didn't wake up Atticus but is did wake up Atka. She slowly gave everone a death-stare that only middle school kids with strict moms can understand. She then layed back down and rubbed her ears with her paws as if an attemped to tell them to shut up. Peyton sat up and said, "Okay boys, theres tea on the stove. Its black tea with ginger so may be a little strong for you big babies." (Maya and Peyton started Laughing Again) Aaron looked at them and said "Okay, okay... Very funny, Veeerrry funny." Daniel went over and got two cups of tea and they both sat down. "So Maya and I actually wanted to tell you something... Me and Maya have something to tell you..." Peyton and Aaron were both confused and exited. "Me and Maya have known for about a month now... Maya is almost 3 months pregnant." Peyton and Aaron both shreeked "WHAT!?!?!" Aaron grabbed Maya and hugged her and then Daniel. Peyton did the same. "Me and Daniel were planning on telling you but, we didn't wanna steel the thunder on your pregnancy. So they will be about 2 months apart." Peyton hugged Maya and they both started crying as Peyton said "Im so happy for you! This is amazing... Oh I cant wait!" Now this time it woke Atticus, "Mom, Dad, why is Aunt Peyton shreeking?" Maya said "We told them... About your new sibling." Peyton shreeked again "What?!? Atticus you knew!?! And you didn't tell me. I didn't know you could keep that big of a secret." "Sorry Aunt Peyton, I promissed my mom." He ran up and hugged Maya and Peyton. Daniel interupted and said, "Okay ladies Im sorry but girl time is over. We have to get to the park, Atticus is gonna meet his blue handed friend 😏" Peyton started laughing again. So did Maya... the cycle continues. Apearently Maya told Peyton as well. Five minutes later... "Okay bye bro. bye Peyton, we'll see you guys and Katlyn on Saturday. Byeee" Both: "Bye."
