"Cassie you do know I love you. I love you very much!!!." said Robin as he held Cassie.
"Yes I know I love you too." said Cassie.
"But we cannot make this more than just friends relationship. I cannot hurt Lulu. Plus I don't want to get into another fight with Charles. You know that." said Robin.
"I know Robin but you're the only one I can talk to right now. Just be with me and hold me." said Cassie.
"Okay Cassie." said Robin as he gives in.
Then Monica came in with some hot cocoa.
"Hey two I thought you all needed something warm to drink." said Monica.
"Awesome. thanks mom." said Robin.
"Thanks!." said Cassie.
Then Lulu came from the back.
"Lulu you just in time for hot cocoa." said Monica.
"Cool thanks...Cassie what are you doing here?" asked Lulu.
Batman642
Cassie was caught off guard. "I um........" she stalled.
Robin took his arm from around Cassie and reached for the cocoa.
"She came to see you," he said answering Lulu's question as nonchalantly as he possibly could. "But since you were knocked out, we just decided to chill here on the couch for awhile."
He caught Lulu's eye as he slurped on his cocoa and hoped that she believed him. Cassie was hoping the same thing, not wanting to cause any trouble for the two of them.
"Oh," Lulu replied after a few seconds. "Cool!" She flashed a quick smile and started to join them on the couch--she on Robin's left and Cassie on Robin's right.
"Have some," Robin offered as he put his mug up to Lulu's lips and watched her sip some of his cocoa.
"Mmmmm......" she moaned happily after her sip. "It's delish!"
Robin chuckled.
"What's funny?" Lulu asked, not realizing that she'd gotten whipped cream on her nose.
Not being able to resist, Robin leaned close to her face and licked it off.
"Oops!" she giggled, embarrased. "Thanks, boo!"
Robin decided to take that as his "Q" to leave, got up from between the two girls and went into the kitchen with Monica.
Lulu turned her attention back to Cassie, moving closer to her on the couch. "So girl! Why didn't you tell me you were coming by? Are you feeling any better?"
Candygwen
"A little better thanks to Robin. He's really a good friend." said Cassie.
"Yeah but shouldn't you be with your family and Charles?" asked Lulu.
"I can't go back right now." said Cassie.
"Cassie they are going to worry about you and what about the twins?" asked Lulu.
"Charles can look after them." said Cassie.
"Cassie those twins needs their momma." said Lulu.
"I know but Lulu you just don't know what I've been through this past few months." cried Cassie.
"You can stay here if you want. But I think you better let your parents know where you are at." said Lulu.
Maybe later." said Cassie.
Batman642
Meanwhile, Monica was putting some dishes in the dishwasher in the kitchen and Robin decided to help her out.
"Robin, what are you doing?" she asked as he passed her a plate.
"I'm helping you, Mom," he replied innocently.
"Robin! That's not what I mean! What are you DOING???" she asked again.
He still looked clueless.
Monica sighed, exasperated and pointed towards the livingroom where Cassie and Lulu were. "Robin, I'm talking about those two girls in there! What are you DOING? With THEM???"
"Mom?" Robin still wasn't getting it.
"Robin, what's with the making out with Lulu and then the snuggling on the couch with Cassie? Play with fire, Robin and you WILL get burned!" Monica warned.
Candygwen
"Whoa it's not even like that mom. Cassie was upset and I have to comfort her. I didn't know what else to do. We are just friends and nothing else." said Robin.
"You better keep it that way. You better not hurt those girls or I will deal with you myself. I taught you better than that Robin." said Monica.
"Mom I promise you there is nothing going on between me and Cassie." said Robin.
"Alright I'll take your word but I'm keepin' an close eye on both you and Cassie." said Monica.
Meanwhile back at The Antoni's Charles woke up to check up on Cassie but he found she has not returned home yet.
Batman642
He decided to call her cell phone but when he did, he heard it ringing in her room and realized she left home without it.
Worried and upset, he threw his phone down on the bed. He paced nervously back and forth in his room, trying to collect his thoughts. Cassie should be home by now...... Where IS she???? What if something's wrong????
Finally, Charles decided to go downstairs and when he did he saw Dana in the kitchen drinking a bottle of beer.
Candygwen
"Dana what are you doing?" shocked Charles.
"I drinking beer! What does it look like?" asked Dana as she drank.
"But it's 7 in the morning." said Charles,
"I'm sorry I just need something ease my nerves." said Dana.
"Dana that's not healthy." said Charles.
"Is there something you want?" wondered Dana.
"Have you seen Cassie?" asked Charles.
"Not since you two were given the third degree last night. Why?" wondered Dana.
"Cassie went out to get some air but she hasn't come home. And plus she left her cell phone." said Charles.
"What's going on?" asked Eddie as he and Jenn went downstairs along with Marla.
Batman642
Before anyone could answer his question, Eddie noticed Dana's beer. "Yo......Dana......ain't it kinda early for a brewski?"
"Eddie, you ain't my daddy!" Dana snapped. "And this ain't your house!" she added.
"Well good morning to you too," he replied sarcastically.
"Eddie, Dana's right," Jenn said. "She's an adult."
Eddie did a double take and looked at Jenn, speechless. "ANYWAY," he finally continued, "like I was saying before--what's going on?" he asked.
"Cassie's M.I.A." Dana replied.
"Say what?? Missing?" Eddie asked in disbelief. He turned to Charles. "Where's my daughter?" he demanded sternly.
Charles was visibly shaken. "Mr. Sutton--I SWEAR--I didn't do anything to Cassie!"
"Baby," Marla said as she put her arms around her son, "no one is accusing you of DOING ANYTHING to Cassie," she comforted him. "Isn't that RIGHT Eddie?" she asked just as sternly as she stared Eddie down.
Eddie ignored Marla's hint. "Look, you can't tell me you don't know where Cassie is! The two of you are practically joined at the hip for Christ's sake!"
"Eddie! Leave the boy alone! Can't you see he's upset?" Dana scolded.
"We're upset too, Dana!" Jenn jumped in. "Charles, I know you wouldn't hurt Cassie--intentionally--but are you SURE you're telling us everything?"
"What?" Marla snapped angrily. "Do you think he killed her and hid her body?!" she asked sarcastically. "Charles said he doesn't know where she is!"
"Hold it, everybody!" Dana shouted. "We're all getting just a little bit hysterical here! Let's put our heads together, shall we? I'm sure we can come up with a reasonable explanation," she advised. "I'll make coffee," she offered.
So everyone sat at the kitchen table to discuss Cassie's disappearance.
Candygwen
Then Tay, Jeron, and Lizzie ame downstairs with Natalie.
'What's going on?" asked Lizzie.
"Cassie's missing." said Dana.
"What?" shocked Lizzie.
"Charles what did you do to my sister now." snapped Tay.
"WHY IS EVERYONE THINK I DID SOMETHING TO CASSIE?" yelled Charles.
"Charles will you lower your voice. Charles didn't do anything." said Marla.
"Like hell." snapped Eddie.
"Eddie." shocked Jenn.
"Well he's been screwing our daughter behind our backs and breaking her heart. So I'm not surprised." said Eddie.
"Hey I don't like the idea of our kids having sex in my house but go around insulting my son in my house."said Marla.
"This arguing isn't helping." said Jenn.
"What are we going to do?" asked Dana.
"We'll search the neighborhood and call all of Cassie's friends to find where she is at." said Jenn.
"Good idea." said Eddie.
Batman642
"Maybe I'll stay behind and keep an eye on the three little ones," Dana volunteered.
"Are you sure you can handle the twins? They're a handful," Jenn warned.
"I'm sure, Jenn. Just get going and find our Cassie," Dana urged.
Lizzie, Tay and Jeron stood off to the side by themselvs quietly and watched the confusion as the adults scrambled to get dressed and ready to search the neighborhood.
"Tay, do you know what I'm thinking?" Lizzie asked.
"Yep! Sure do! And I'm thinking the same thing...."
"What?" Jeron asked.
"Wherever ROBIN is, that's where CASSIE is!" Lizzie informed him.
"Yep! That's what I was thinking, sis!" Tay agreed.
"So you gonna tell your folks? They're straight up BUGGIN!" Jeron complained.
"I know, I know," Lizzie acknowledged. "But we've gotta handle this so that Robin doesn't wind up being the bad guy in all of this. And if Charles finds out, he'll see to it that Robin winds up being the bad guy!"
"So what's so special about Robin?" Jeron asked.
"Jeron, before you, Lizzie had the hots for Robin--that's what's so special!" Tay blurted out, laughing.
Lizzie hit Tay. "You've got a BIG MOUTH, Tay!"
"It's cool, Lizzie. I've got a past too! " Jeron said trying to put her at ease. "The important thing is to find your sister right now."
"I'm gonna call Robin on his cell. I'll bet ANYTHING Cassie's with him," Lizzie told the boys as she went upstairs to get her phone.
"Wait for us!" They said following her.
Candygwen
"Meanwhile back at Monica's house Robin was making turkey burgers for Thanksgiving until cell phone rang and it was Lizzie.
"Hello Lizzie!!!" Robin answered.
"Robin thank god! We have a big problem." said Lizzie.
"Let me guess Cassie. Not to worry Cassie alright. She's over at my mom house. She seems very upset. Lulu is keeping her company." said Robin.
"Thank God!!! Everyone is worry sick about her." said Lizzie.
"She hasn't called you guys yet?" wondered Robin.
"No they are all out looking for her." said Lizzie.
Batman642
Robin sighed and shook his head. "Well thanks for the heads up, Lizzie. I'll figure something out," he promised her.
"I know," Lizzie replied with confidence as she hung up.
"So what happened?" Tay asked her anxiously.
"Robin said Lulu's keeping her company and he thought that Cassie had called us already!"
"Cassie can be so selfish sometimes!" Tay complained. "She's got everybody all worried about her and she's hanging with Lulu! What about Colin and Kalie? Even if she doesn't care about anyone else, what about them?"
"Yo, that's women," Jeron replied.
Lizzie put her hand on her hip and looked Jeron up and down. "EXCUSE YOU???" she asked, offended.
Jeron made a face. "I meant that's SOME women," he corrected himself.
Lizzie and Tay both looked at Jeron and replied, "No, that's CASSIE!"
"So what's next?" Jeron asked impatiently.
"I'll just text mom and dad and tell them she's with Lulu. We'll TOTALLY leave Robin out of it!" Lizzie decided.
"Text Charles too," Tay reminded her.
"Oh yeah......I almost forgot about Chuck," Lizzie admitted.
Candygwen
Jen, Eddie, and Marla search all over looking for Cassie. But there was still no trace. Then Eddie and Jenn got a text message from Lizzie saying that Cassie is with Lulu. Then Eddie turned the car around.
"Eddie where are we going?" asked Jenn.
"Over to Robin's mother place. I gotta text from Lizzie that Cassie is hanging out with Lulu." said Eddie.
"Wait a minute you don't think Cassie went over show she can to be with Robin." wondered Jenn.
"I hope not. Anyway Robin's mother is there and I know she won't have any of that going arond." said Eddie.
"I just glad that our daughter is alright...now I can kill her." said Jenn.
"Lets try to handle this properly." said Marla.
"Come on she left n the middle of the night leaving the twins. Cassie knows better than that." said Eddie.
Batman642
"I think she's been under alot of pressure lately, don't you?" Marla asked.
"HA! Haven't we all?" Eddie asked sarcastically.
"But Cassie's young and immature and can't handle crap like we adults can!: Plus, she's got TWINS!" Marla tried to reason with Eddie.
"And whose fault is THAT?" Eddie asked, again sarcastically.
"I think all things considered that Cassie is doing a good job. And if she needed to get away from it all for awhile, well, so be it. I don't think you should make a huge deal out of this, Eddie. If you do you might regret it," she warned.
"Look Marla, once and for all, I'm not gonna live in fear around my own kids and walk on eggshells trying to please them and stay on their good side. Because bottom line, they don't do it for me! Did Cassie stop and think how this little stunt would affect any of us?"
"Eddie......" Marla sighed.
"I don't know, Marla, you seem to be awfully pro-Cassie these days. Do you know something we don't know?" Jenn asked suspiciously.
Marla thought awhile about her conversation with Charles. "Well, I do know that she and Charles had a slight disagreement about Kalie yesterday before you caught them together in the tub. Who knows, that could've been the straw that broke the camels back? And then let's not forget how humiliated she was in front of you, Jenn....."
"As well she should be!" Eddie replied indignantly as he banged on the steering wheel.
Marla rolled her eyes. "Okay, I can see I'm not helping things any so let me just keep my mouth shut," she decided.
Meanwhile at Monica's.......
Candygwen
"Hey girls the Turkey Burgers should be down in minute. Along with the cranberry sauce, and the sweetpotatoe fries. I'm sorry this isn't Thanksgiving dinner you expect but you know how it is." said RObin.
"Robin I understand along as I am having dinner with you two. That what matter I want to be with two of my closet firiends." said Cassie.
"That's great!!' said Robin depressly.
"Robin is everything alright...don't you want me spend dinner with you?" worried Cassie.
"Of course I want to spend Thanksgiving dinner with you more tha the world. It just that your sister called me on my cell and she told me your folks are looking for you." said Robin.
"WHAT!!!" shocked Cassie.
"Plus they are heading over here." said Robin.
"Thanks goodness." said Monica.
"What!!!" said Robin, Lulu, & Cassie.
"I mean what a pity!!" said Monica.
"Robin you told them?" shocked Cassie.
"No Lizzie found out on her own. Cassie you know I would never rat you like that. But I really think you should try talking to your parents." said Robin.
"Robin has a point Cassie. We both know you are going through and you can't run away from your troubles. You have two babies that need their mother right now." said Lulu.
"I don't know if I can come to them." said Cassie.
"Then we will all talk to them...we invite them for dinner and work this out like adults." said Monica.
"Mom?" confused Robin.
"Hey I met alot girls Cassie's age that is going through hard time. This is time that we all need to be together." said Monica.
Batman642
So when Eddie, Jenn and Marla arrived at Monica's apartment, they were surprised by the warm, friendly welcome they received. Monica graciously invited them to stay for dinner, brought them into the dining area and pointed out that the kids had set the table beautifully with three extra seats just for them.
"You just can't say no," Monica persuaded them, "after all the trouble we've gone to!"
Jenn and Marla looked at Eddie to see what he would say, and Eddie stayed quiet for what seemed to be an eternity as they all just stood around the table.
"Please, Dad," Cassie finally said softly.
Eddie, fit to be tied, looked at Cassie. "That's all you can say? Please Dad?" he asked, disappointed in her.
Cassie looked sad at his response, and Lulu put her arm around Cassie for moral support.
"No, that's not all I have to say," she replied. "First, Mrs. A.," she said looking at Marla, "I'm very sorry for the way I behaved at your house yesterday. Please forgive me."
Marla felt so sorry for Cassie. "I do, sweetie, I do," she assured her with a sympathetic smile.
"Thanks," Cassie smiled back a little. "And second," she continued, looking at Jenn, "I'm sorry Mom for putting you and Natalie in such an embarrassing situation and for not being as dignified and respectful as you would like me to be."
Jenn felt a lump in her throat as she listened to her daughter's humble apology. She wanted to say something back but no words would come out so she just nodded quietly.
"And last of all," Cassie went on, "I'm sorry Daddy for putting you through so much trouble and making you worry about me. What I did was wrong, but I just wasn't thinking straight at the time. I'm sorry," she repeated.
Eddie felt uncomfortable listening to Cassie pour her heart out in front of everyone and didn't say anything back at first.
"Dad? NOW can we all have dinner together?" she finally asked again. "PLEASE?"
Jenn touched Eddie's arm and he knew what that meant.
"Sure," he finally agreed. "Thank you Monica for the invitation. And you guys," he said addressing his daughter and her friends, "thanks for putting this together the way you did."
Everyone let out a sigh of relief and the atmosphere improved. "We're just glad you could stay, Mr. Sutton!" Robin said as he reached out and shook Eddie's hand.
"Well, let's not all just stand around the table," Monica directed. "Everyone take a seat, please!"
So everyone sat down while Monica and Robin brought the food out from the kitchen.
"We've still got more to talk about Cassandra," Eddie informed her.
Cassie sighed. "I know, Dad, I know....."
"And Cassie, what about Charles? Have you called him? He's very worried," Marla added.
"Oh........." Cassie replied sadly, "Charles......."
Candygwen
"Don't worry I talk to Lizzie and she just text Charles not long ago." said Robin.
Meanwhile Charles was still looking for Cassie until he recieved a text message from Lizzie saying that Cassie hanging out with Lulu.
"Wait a minute if Cassie hanging with Lulu this means she's over at Robin's place...I KILL HIM!!!." snapped Charles as stepped on the accelorator and drove off.
Meanwhile back at Monica's house everyone sat down for dinner.
"Wow these Turkey Burgers look delicious." said Monica.
"Sit right here Robin." said Cassie as she continued to romanticaly stared at him.
"Okay." said Robin.
Robin sat right between Cassie and Lulu.
"Oh Robin can you bring out my famous blueberry pie?" asked Monica.
"I sure will." said Robin.
"Wait a minute we can't eat just yet." said Marla.
"What do you mean?" asked Eddie.
"What about Tay, Lizzie, Jeron, & Dana?" asked Marla.
"Oh no I almost forgot about those two. And Charles, Natalie & the twins." said Jenn.
Then the doorbell rang and it was Dana, Lizzie, Jeron, Tay, Jeron, Natalie & the twins.
"Wow Burgers!!!." said Tay excited.
"Now that's what a call a Thanksgiving dinner." said Jeron.
"Guys manners." said Dana.
"Cassie I am so glad that you alright. I should kill you for scaring us like that." said Dana as she hugged Cassie.
"I know I am so sorry." said Cassie.
"Well better not do that again." said Dana.
"I won't." said Cassie.
"Come you all just in time for dinner." said Monica.
"Don't worry is Turkey Burgers." said Jenn.
"How my little angels doing?" asked Cassie as she hugged the twins.
"Okay now where is my Robin at." asked Dana.
Then Robin came out with the blueberry pie.
"Now all we are missing is Charles." said Jenn.
Then suddenly Charles crashed through the door like a mad man and said.
"YOU'RE A DEADMAN ROBIN!!!! ARRRGH!!" scream Charles as he started charging toward Robin.
Then Charles tripped and fell on the blueberry pie on his face. Charles got up and pie dripping from his face and saw everybody at the table including Cassie and the twins.
"Congratulation Charles!!! Not only you manage to make a complete ass out yourslef but you just ruined mother's famous pie." said Robin sarcasticly.
Batman642
"What do you mean
"Cassie you do know I love you. I love you very much!!!." said Robin as he held Cassie.
"Yes I know I love you too." said Cassie.
"But we cannot make this more than just friends relationship. I cannot hurt Lulu. Plus I don't want to get into another fight with Charles. You know that." said Robin.
"I know Robin but you're the only one I can talk to right now. Just be with me and hold me." said Cassie.
"Okay Cassie." said Robin as he gives in.
Then Monica came in with some hot cocoa.
"Hey two I thought you all needed something warm to drink." said Monica.
"Awesome. thanks mom." said Robin.
"Thanks!." said Cassie.
Then Lulu came from the back.
"Lulu you just in time for hot cocoa." said Monica.
"Cool thanks...Cassie what are you doing here?" asked Lulu.
Batman642
Cassie was caught off guard. "I um........" she stalled.

"So what's next?" Jeron asked impatiently.
"I'll just text mom and dad and tell them she's with Lulu. We'll TOTALLY leave Robin out of it!" Lizzie decided.
"Text Charles too," Tay reminded her.
"Oh yeah......I almost forgot about Chuck," Lizzie admitted.

Jen, Eddie, and Marla search all over looking for Cassie. But there was still no trace. Then Eddie and Jenn got a text message from Lizzie saying that Cassie is with Lulu. Then Eddie turned the car around.
"Eddie where are we going?" asked Jenn.
"Over to Robin's mother place. I gotta text from Lizzie that Cassie is hanging out with Lulu." said Eddie.
"Wait a minute you don't think Cassie went over show she can to be with Robin." wondered Jenn.
"I hope not. Anyway Robin's mother is there and I know she won't have any of that going arond." said Eddie.
"I just glad that our daughter is alright...now I can kill her." said Jenn.
"Lets try to handle this properly." said Marla.
"Come on she left n the middle of the night leaving the twins. Cassie knows better than that." said Eddie.

"I think she's been under alot of pressure lately, don't you?" Marla asked.
"HA! Haven't we all?" Eddie asked sarcastically.
"But Cassie's young and immature and can't handle crap like we adults can!: Plus, she's got TWINS!" Marla tried to reason with Eddie.
"And whose fault is THAT?" Eddie asked, again sarcastically.
"I think all things considered that Cassie is doing a good job. And if she needed to get away from it all for awhile, well, so be it. I don't think you should make a huge deal out of this, Eddie. If you do you might regret it," she warned.
"Look Marla, once and for all, I'm not gonna live in fear around my own kids and walk on eggshells trying to please them and stay on their good side. Because bottom line, they don't do it for me! Did Cassie stop and think how this little stunt would affect any of us?"
"Eddie......" Marla sighed.
"I don't know, Marla, you seem to be awfully pro-Cassie these days. Do you know something we don't know?" Jenn asked suspiciously.
Marla thought awhile about her conversation with Charles. "Well, I do know that she and Charles had a slight disagreement about Kalie yesterday before you caught them together in the tub. Who knows, that could've been the straw that broke the camels back? And then let's not forget how humiliated she was in front of you, Jenn....."
"As well she should be!" Eddie replied indignantly as he banged on the steering wheel.
Marla rolled her eyes. "Okay, I can see I'm not helping things any so let me just keep my mouth shut," she decided.
Meanwhile at Monica's.......

"Hey girls the Turkey Burgers should be down in minute. Along with the cranberry sauce, and the sweetpotatoe fries. I'm sorry this isn't Thanksgiving dinner you expect but you know how it is." said RObin.
"Robin I understand along as I am having dinner with you two. That what matter I want to be with two of my closet firiends." said Cassie.
"That's great!!' said Robin depressly.
"Robin is everything alright...don't you want me spend dinner with you?" worried Cassie.
"Of course I want to spend Thanksgiving dinner with you more tha the world. It just that your sister called me on my cell and she told me your folks are looking for you." said Robin.
"WHAT!!!" shocked Cassie.
"Plus they are heading over here." said Robin.
"Thanks goodness." said Monica.
"What!!!" said Robin, Lulu, & Cassie.
"I mean what a pity!!" said Monica.
"Robin you told them?" shocked Cassie.
"No Lizzie found out on her own. Cassie you know I would never rat you like that. But I really think you should try talking to your parents." said Robin.
"Robin has a point Cassie. We both know you are going through and you can't run away from your troubles. You have two babies that need their mother right now." said Lulu.
"I don't know if I can come to them." said Cassie.
"Then we will all talk to them...we invite them for dinner and work this out like adults." said Monica.
"Mom?" confused Robin.
"Hey I met alot girls Cassie's age that is going through hard time. This is time that we all need to be together." said Monica.

So when Eddie, Jenn and Marla arrived at Monica's apartment, they were surprised by the warm, friendly welcome they received. Monica graciously invited them to stay for dinner, brought them into the dining area and pointed out that the kids had set the table beautifully with three extra seats just for them.
"You just can't say no," Monica persuaded them, "after all the trouble we've gone to!"
Jenn and Marla looked at Eddie to see what he would say, and Eddie stayed quiet for what seemed to be an eternity as they all just stood around the table.
"Please, Dad," Cassie finally said softly.
Eddie, fit to be tied, looked at Cassie. "That's all you can say? Please Dad?" he asked, disappointed in her.
Cassie looked sad at his response, and Lulu put her arm around Cassie for moral support.
"No, that's not all I have to say," she replied. "First, Mrs. A.," she said looking at Marla, "I'm very sorry for the way I behaved at your house yesterday. Please forgive me."
Marla felt so sorry for Cassie. "I do, sweetie, I do," she assured her with a sympathetic smile.
"Thanks," Cassie smiled back a little. "And second," she continued, looking at Jenn, "I'm sorry Mom for putting you and Natalie in such an embarrassing situation and for not being as dignified and respectful as you would like me to be."
Jenn felt a lump in her throat as she listened to her daughter's humble apology. She wanted to say something back but no words would come out so she just nodded quietly.
"And last of all," Cassie went on, "I'm sorry Daddy for putting you through so much trouble and making you worry about me. What I did was wrong, but I just wasn't thinking straight at the time. I'm sorry," she repeated.
Eddie felt uncomfortable listening to Cassie pour her heart out in front of everyone and didn't say anything back at first.
"Dad? NOW can we all have dinner together?" she finally asked again. "PLEASE?"
Jenn touched Eddie's arm and he knew what that meant.
"Sure," he finally agreed. "Thank you Monica for the invitation. And you guys," he said addressing his daughter and her friends, "thanks for putting this together the way you did."
Everyone let out a sigh of relief and the atmosphere improved. "We're just glad you could stay, Mr. Sutton!" Robin said as he reached out and shook Eddie's hand.
"Well, let's not all just stand around the table," Monica directed. "Everyone take a seat, please!"
So everyone sat down while Monica and Robin brought the food out from the kitchen.
"We've still got more to talk about Cassandra," Eddie informed her.
Cassie sighed. "I know, Dad, I know....."
"And Cassie, what about Charles? Have you called him? He's very worried," Marla added.
"Oh........." Cassie replied sadly, "Charles......."

"Don't worry I talk to Lizzie and she just text Charles not long ago." said Robin.
Meanwhile Charles was still looking for Cassie until he recieved a text message from Lizzie saying that Cassie hanging out with Lulu.
"Wait a minute if Cassie hanging with Lulu this means she's over at Robin's place...I KILL HIM!!!." snapped Charles as stepped on the accelorator and drove off.
Meanwhile back at Monica's house everyone sat down for dinner.
"Wow these Turkey Burgers look delicious." said Monica.
"Sit right here Robin." said Cassie as she continued to romanticaly stared at him.
"Okay." said Robin.
Robin sat right between Cassie and Lulu.
"Oh Robin can you bring out my famous blueberry pie?" asked Monica.
"I sure will." said Robin.
"Wait a minute we can't eat just yet." said Marla.
"What do you mean?" asked Eddie.
"What about Tay, Lizzie, Jeron, & Dana?" asked Marla.
"Oh no I almost forgot about those two. And Charles, Natalie & the twins." said Jenn.
Then the doorbell rang and it was Dana, Lizzie, Jeron, Tay, Jeron, Natalie & the twins.
"Wow Burgers!!!." said Tay excited.
"Now that's what a call a Thanksgiving dinner." said Jeron.
"Guys manners." said Dana.
"Cassie I am so glad that you alright. I should kill you for scaring us like that." said Dana as she hugged Cassie.
"I know I am so sorry." said Cassie.
"Well better not do that again." said Dana.
"I won't." said Cassie.
"Come you all just in time for dinner." said Monica.
"Don't worry is Turkey Burgers." said Jenn.
"How my little angels doing?" asked Cassie as she hugged the twins.
"Okay now where is my Robin at." asked Dana.
Then Robin came out with the blueberry pie.
"Now all we are missing is Charles." said Jenn.
Then suddenly Charles crashed through the door like a mad man and said.
"YOU'RE A DEADMAN ROBIN!!!! ARRRGH!!" scream Charles as he started charging toward Robin.
Then Charles tripped and fell on the blueberry pie on his face. Charles got up and pie dripping from his face and saw everybody at the table including Cassie and the twins.
"Congratulation Charles!!! Not only you manage to make a complete ass out yourslef but you just ruined mother's famous pie." said Robin sarcasticly.
