"Uh I better get ready to rehearse." said Devin nervously.
"Devin are you alright? You look like you seen a ghost." concerned Lizzie.
"I fine!!! I figured I'm late as it and I better get to work like right now." said Devin heading to closet.
"Devin you're going into the closet." said Lizzie.
"Oops my bad. Rehearsals that way right?" asked Devin.
"Right!!" said Lizzie.
"What's his problem?" confused Kendra.
"I have no idea." said Lizzie as she saw Devin suspiciously.

Meanwhile, Bill and Marla are in the car on the way to the Salsa Club.
Candygwen
"You remember how to salsa this time?" asked Bill.
"Oh yes I came prepare this time." said Marla.
As they walked he told the waiter to escort them to the same seat and tip him 100 dollar bill.
"A man with class I like that." said Marla.
"May I get you two anything." asked the waiter.
"The usual." said Bill.
"Yes sire." said the Waiter leaving.
"And a gentleman too. said Marla.
"Well you haven't seen nothing yet." said Bill.
Batman642
"It feels so good to just sit here and relax, Bill. You have no idea what kind of day I had!" Marla began.
"Hmmm...I don't know if I like the sound of that. Did Marla have a bad day?" he asked, humoring her.
"It was a frightening day, Bill. I thought I'd almost lost my son there for awhile..." she sighed.
"Well that's not a good thing. I'm sorry you had to put up with that stress, Marla," he said concerned.
"Thanks, Bill. I'm sure I'll be alright now."
"Do you feel like talking about it?" he asked, hoping she'd reveal some more about Charles.
"Maybe later. You don't want to hear my problems," she said bashfully.
"Marla, I'm all ears," he told her as he took her hands in his and gazed into her eyes.
She thought for awhile and then decided to open up to him. "Well, if you say so....."
While they waited for their drinks to come, Marla proceeded to tell Bill everything she knew about how the Rev had gotten vandalized and how Charles and Robin tried to take matters into their own hands.
Candygwen
Meanwhile back at the beach Charles and Cassie was laying in the back seat of the truck with nothing on but blankets covers Charles was held Cassie in his arms.
"Wow that felt so good." said Charles kissing Cassie.
"Yeah that was refreshing. You really help release alot of tensions." said Cassie.
"Much better than a massage?" asked Charles.
"Way much better." said Cassie.
"I bet Robin never did that for you." said Charles.
"Charles lets not talk about Robin. Let focus on you and me." said Cassie.
"Now you're talking some sense." said Charles.
The two continue to kiss and make up until the sun started to set.
"Charles it's getting dark we've better head back home." said Cassie.
"Oh come on beautiful just a few more minutes." said Charles.
"No we got parents who's going to worry." said Cassie.
"Damn I wish we had our own place again." said Charles.
"Maybe when we graduate and talk to our folks they will give us the okay. But lets not worry about that right now." said Cassie.
"Whatever you say beautiful. Come on lets get dress." said Charles.
Batman642
About an hour later Chassie arrived back to the house where they found Eddie, Jenn and Dana talking in the living room together.
"Hey guys!" Cassie greeted them as she and Charles walked in, smiling.
"Hi honey! How did rehearsal go?" Jenn asked.
"Everything went fine. No more trouble," Cassie assured her.
"See Jenn? Nothing to worry about!" Eddie said with confidence.
"Charles I heard about you and Robin trying to play vigilante!" Dana remarked.
"It was nothing," Charles replied modestly. "Is my mom around? She called me on my cell while we were looking for those creeps and I couldn't really talk with her at the time," he explained.
"Your mom is out with Bill, dancing the night away," Dana informed him.
Charles looked unhappy.
"How were Colin and Kalie? Did they behave?" Cassie asked, changing the subject.
"They gave me no trouble at all, although they have been sleeping quite a bit. I hope they're not coming down with anything, Cassie," Dana said.
"I hope not either!" Cassie said as she raced up the stairs to the nursery.
"Thanks for watching them, Dana," Charles said as he excused himself and followed Cassie.
When the three adults were alone again in the livingroom, Eddie resumed their conversation.
"Now, where were we?" he asked.
"You were explaining how Dana is gonna bring down Reverand Kingston," Jenn reminded him.
Candygwen
"We are going to wire Dana and while she have her chat with Reverend Joy Lund, Powell, and myself will be outside recording everything that comes out of Kingston's mouth." said Eddie.
"What if Rev. Kingston decides to get fresh?" asked Jenn.
"Simple I just kick him where it hurts." said Dana.
"No you yelled secret password. Then we come running." said Eddie.
"No I kick him where it hurts and then sream the password." said Dana.
"Wait a minute what is the secret password?" confused Jenn.
"It's so stupid." said Dana.
"Can't be that bad." said Jenn.
"Scooby dooby doo!!" said Dana with an attitude.
"That's the secret password Eddie?" asked Jenn.
"Hey it may sound stupid but it'll save your butt." said Eddie.
"Why do you have scooby snacks?" joked Dana.
"Dana this is serious." said Eddie.
Meanwhile in the nursery Chassie saw the twins sleeping.
"Dana said they been napping all da. I really hope nothing is wrong with them." concerned Cassie.
"They not warm or anything." said Charles feeling their heads.
"Lets go and let them sleep." said Cassie.
As soon as they were began to leave the twins woke up and saw Chassie.
"MOMMY DADDY!!!" screamed The twins with joy and excitment.
Batman642
So Chassie stayed up in the nursery, romping and playing with their children while downstairs, Lizzie, Tay, Jeron and Kendra came through the front door, laughing and talking, excited about the day's activities. Devin was with them but he was very quiet and subdued.
"Guys, guys, can you please go in the gameroom with all of that noise?! Can't you see we're trying to talk in here?!" Eddie asked them, annoyed with their disturbance.
"Oops! Sorry Daddy!" Lizzie apologized, kissing him on the top of his head before quickly running into the game room.
Her brother and friends followed. All except Devin who lagged behind, trying to get Eddie's attention.
"Devin, honey? Is something wrong?" Jenn asked, noticing his odd behavior.
"Oh, I just wanted to talk with Mr. Sutton for a minute if that's possible," he said quietly.
"I'm kind of busy right now, Devin," Eddie said, still annoyed.
"Oh," Devin responded, disappointed.
"Maybe we can talk a little later," Eddie offered.
"Oh, yeah, sure, Mr. Sutton. Later," he repeated as he walked away towards the game room.
"Eddie, maybe you should speak with him. He might know something about----you know," Jenn said, hinting.
Eddie chuckled, dismissing Jenn's suggestion. "I doubt that, Jenn," he replied.
"Who's Devin?" Dana asked.
"He's the Reverand's son!" Jenn informed her.
"Get out! Eddie---are you crazy? That boy seemed to have a load on his mind if you ask me!" Dana said, agreeing with Jenn.
"You ladies are clearly new at the game," Eddie remarked condescendingly.
Jenn and Dana exchanged worried glances with each other as they watched Devin enter the game room with the others.
Candygwen
"You know Eddie maybe a cop but he is clueless when it comes to children." said Jenn.
"For once Jenn I agree with you. I have a feeling that Devin knows something." said Dana.
"And if Eddie is not going to talk to him...I WILL!!" said Jenn.
Meanwhile in the gameroom Lizzie and Tay & company was playing arcade games and shooting pool.
"Hey Devin wanna shoot pool with us?" asked Tay.
"Not now!!! I just want chill." said Devin.
"Hey how Devin plaing one on one of Dragon's Lair. Robin has been giving lessons and I teach how to play as well." said Lizzie.
"Thanks but maybe some other time Lizard." said Devin.
"Devin are you sure everything alright?" concerned Lizzie.
"(Sigh) Lizzie there is something you need...oh nevermind." said Devin.
"Devin what is it?" worried Lizzie.
"Lizzie it's nothing seriously. Just go play with the others. I'll be fine." said Devin.
"Alright if you say so." said Lizzie.
Soon Jenn came in.
"Devin may I have a minute with you? I need help in the kitchen." said Jenn.
"Sure Mrs. Sutton." said Devin.
Batman642
When they got into the kitchen, Jenn told Devin that she needed help putting together an appliance that she'd ordered through the mail.
"Cool, I can do that for you," he volunteered.
"Thanks, Devin. None of my kids would help me out when I asked earlier and neither would Mr. Sutton," she lied as she handed him a box with a brand new food processor inside.
He took out the instructions and the parts and started working on the project as Jenn sat and watched. Then she decided to start out with some small talk.
"So Devin, I was at the Rev earlier but I didn't see you. Where you there?" she inquired.
"I got there late today. I guess you were already gone," he replied.
"Is your number coming along alright?" she asked.
"Mmm hmm. I'm doing Dirty Diana," he said proudly as he concentrated on the food processor.
"Speaking of dirty, I guess you saw what happened to the Rev? Pretty DIRTY huh?" she asked, watching him closely.
Devin flinched just a bit.
"Yeah that wasn't right," he said sadly.
"Who would want to do something like that?" Jenn remarked hoping for some feedback.
Devin gulped hard.
"Could I have a glass of water?" he asked.
"Of course! Forgive me for my bad manners! I have you in here working and didn't even offer you a drink. I'm sorry," Jenn apologized as she got the water for him.
He drank it down very fast.
"Aaaaah........that was good," he said as he went back to assembling the food processor.
There was brief silence and then Devin stopped working.
"Mrs. Sutton, can I ask you a question?"
"Ask me anything you want, Devin," Jenn said, hoping he would open up to her.
Candygwen
"If you have a parent who you love and respect since the day you are born and you suddenly finds out they are you know it's down right wrong what do you do?" asked Devin.
"Well I would atleast confront about the issue." said Jenn.
"But what if that says this is grown folks business and you shouldn't butt in but you found out anyway should I tell someone?" asked Devin.
"Well its depends on how serious the situation is." said Jenn.
"It's very serious. He could lose his job or worse." said Devin.
"How are things going between you and your father?" asked Jenn.
"Alright I guess. We gotten alot closer since I moved back. We've been going to games, teaching me how to drive, etc. but every since MJ's death he scene bit distance. And just the other day...never mind. Forget I brought this subject up." said Devin.
"Devin sweetheart you know whatever the problem you can always come tell me." said Jenn.
"I don't know if I can." said Devin.
"Devin you can tell me. Is your father doing something we need to know about?" asked Jenn.
Batman642
Before Devin could answer, his cell phone rang and when he took it out and looked at it he saw that it was his father.
"This is him now, Mrs. Sutton," he told Jenn with a worried look on his face. "Could you excuse me, please?"
Devin quickly left the kitchen so that he could have some privacy and went into the bathroom.
"Hey Dad," he answered.
"What took you so long to answer?" his father asked irate.
"Sorry," Devin apologized.
"Where are you anyway?" the Reverand continued.
"At Mrs. Antoni's house," Devin replied.
"You mean with the Suttons. I know they stay there, boy," his father remarked.
"I guess you want me to come home now, huh?" Devin asked sadly.
"My boy! Nothing gets past you, Devin! Nothing at all!" the Reverand answered sarcastically.
"I'll be home soon," Devin promised.
"You mean sooner than soon if you know what's good for you," the Reverand threatened him.
"Yes sir," Devin replied before hanging up.
When he came out of the bathroom, Jenn and Eddie were standing nearby waiting for him.
Candygwen
"Mr. & Mrs. Sutton?" shocked Devin.
"Who was that on the phone Devin?" asked Eddie.
"That's my dad he wants me to come home right away. If you excuse me." said Devin getting his things.
"Devin aren't you going to tell us about your father?" asked Jenn.
"I can't not tonight. I have to talk to you another time. Sorry I didn'tfinish fixing the food processor. Tell Lizzie I'll be at rehearsal tomorrow." said Devin rushing out the door.
"But Devin." said Jenn trying to stop him.
But it was too late Devin have left.
"What is going on with that boy. He wanted to talk to me and now all of sudden he left." confused Eddie.
"Eddie sit down...I think you may be right about Reverend Kingston. I think is really is behind all this." said Jenn.
"Did Devin say something?" wondered Eddie.
"God Eddie how can you be so clueless?" surprised Jenn.
"Jenn I'm trying to understand. Tell me!!! Does Devin knows anything about this situation?" asked Eddie.
Batman642
"Of course he knows, Eddie. But the boy is obviously terrified of betraying his father's trust, so he won't come out and say what he knows! I almost got it out of him," Jenn said, frustrated.
"Unfortunately ALMOST isn't good enough, Jenn. We're gonna have to do this as planned--with Dana's help," Eddie said.
"I don't have a problem with that, Eddie. Just as long as no one gets hurt," Jenn replied.
"Agreed," said Eddie as he started to walk away.
"Oh, and one more thing, Eddie," she added.
Eddie sighed, losing patience. "Yes Jenn? What else?"
"Would you please finish assembling my food processor?" she asked sweetly.
Eddie couldn't help smiling as he headed for the kitchen.
Candygwen
"With pleasure Jenn." said Eddie.
Meanwhile back at Monica's house Robin, Lulu, & Monica decided to invite the backup dancers for dinner.
"Thanks again for inviting us to dinner Robin. We very much appreciate it." said The Choreographer.
"Hey you guys help with the number it's the least I can do." said Robin.
"I haven['t had a home cook meal in ages." said one of the dancers.
"Me neither." said the other dancers.
"Not to worry. Ms. Monica is an excellent cook." said Lulu.
"Well I better go and help her in the kitchen." said The Choreographer.
"I better go with you." said RObin.
"No you stay here." said Lulu.
"WHAT!!!" surprsied Robin.
"Can't you see he likes your mom?" whispered Lulu.
"That's what I'm afraid of." said Robin.
"Robin it's time that your mother live alittle." said Lulu.
"I suppose I just hope that choreographer don't try no funny stuff with my mom." said Robin.
Batman642
"Stop worrying so much about THEM and concentrate on US!" Lulu advised. "We could try some funny stuff of our own."
Robin did a double take and looked at Lulu. "Oh yeah?" he asked, pleasantly surprised.
Lulu giggled, nodded and took his hand. "There are SO MANY ROOMS in this new house," she said, hinting.
"Good idea, Lu," he agreed.
Then he cleared his throat and got everyone's attentiion. "Everyone just chill and make yourselves at home. I've got plenty of MJ footage and videos you can watch til diner time."
So all of the dancers relaxed on the plush leather sofas and watched DVDs while Robin and Lulu snuck off to one of the guest rooms where they could be alone.
Candygwen
Meanwhile back at the Salsa. Bill was sitting listening Marla explain everything what had happened today.
"Wow I'll say this for Robin and Charles those two have guts trying track down those vandals. More guts than brains I say." said Bill.
"You took the words right out of my mouth I don't knowif it a macho thing or what. But Charles take too many chances and he don't think about the consequences." said Marla.
"It must be stressfull putting up with him." said Bill.
"It is. Especially putting with Charles and Cassie relationship. There are times I asked myself where did I gho wrong with that boy." said Marla.
"Well they got those twins with them. So hopefully those kids will make him grow up a little." said Bill.
"I suppose!! But Charles is really a good person. He just got some issues. I'm just felt some of it is my own fault. I doing everything I can to make it up him." said Marla.
"Well at least Charles and Robin are okay and the vandals is down at the station right where they belong." said Bill.
"Thank God for that." said Marla.
"I just don't understand why would anyone disrespect a man as famous as MJ?" asked Bill.
"I think some have to do with race, some are jealous of MJ' success whishing it was them instead of him and then you got these weak minded people believing everything media saids about MJ." said Marla.
"It's shame people can be so narrow minded but those vandals just proves that they have no class at all. Its one thing to have a different opinon about MJ but being disrespectful is another. I those vandals took it too far." said Bill.
"I know and I hope they get what they deserves." said Marla.
Finally their food arrived and the two started eating and continued their conversation.
"So Marla when are we going to dance?" asked Bill.
Batman642
Marla smiled as she gently wiped her mouth with her napkin.
"Why Bill, I thought you'd never ask," she said as she started to rise from her seat and head for the dance floor.
"Wait for me!" Bill said as he hurried and took another forkful of food before following her.
Meanwhile, back at Monica's house she and the choreographer are in the kitchen cooking up some chili for the dancers.
Candygwen
"I've better get Robin to help set the table." said Monica.
"Anything you want me to do?" asked The choreographer.
"Continue stirring the chilli." said Monica.
Monica call Robin from the innercome (sp). Meanwhile Robin and Lulu was in one of the rooms making out.
"Robin I need you to come downstairs." said Monica.
"Robin you better go and see what she wants." said Lulu.
"She can wait." said Robin.
"Robin I don't think she will appreciate us making out in one of the rooms." said Lulu.
"My mom isn't going to find out." said Robin.
"Robin I need you downstairs now...AND IF YOU & LULU ARE IN ONE OF THOSE ROOM DOING WHAT I THINK YOU'RE DOING YOU BETTER KNOCK IT OFF RIGHT NOW!!!!" warned Monica.
"Umm my mom needs me downstairs." said Robin.
"Told you." laughed Lulu.
Batman642
"Robin can you please set the table?" asked Monica suspiciously as she stirred the chilli.
"Yes ma'm,' said Robin as you walked over to get the plates ith his head down.
"I'll help you," said Lulu as she came downstairs.
"So you guys, how's the routine going?" asked Monica, lighting the mood.
"Well Robin is a good dancer, but there sure is a lot of drama gong on around here. And I noticed it all revolves around your son," said The Coregrapher.
"Really?!" said Monica curious.
Robertadamsonlover
"You better go tell the others that dinner is ready." said Robin changing the subject.
"Oh okay." said The Choreogragher leaving the kitchen.
"What was that all about?" asked Monica.
"Mom you were there. The vandals broke the window. Charles and I ran after them." Robin explained.
"Oh I see which reminds me." said Monica as she slapped Robin's across the head.
"Owww mom what was that for?" shcoked Robin.
"For scarring me like that by going after those vandals. Don't you ever do something that stupid ever again." said Monica.
"Alright...Geez I got enough lecture getting it from Mr. Sutton." said Robin.
"Well I'm still your mother Robin and I have a say in it too." said Monica.
"This won't happen again." said Robin.
"Whew that was close if the Choreographer told my mom that I'm doing this number for Cassie I'm toast." said Robin to himself.
Meanwhile back at Marla's house Eddie called Lund to discuss his plan to bring Kingston down.
Batman642
Lund listened carefully until Eddie finished explaining.
"So what do you think?" Eddie finally asked.
"I think you're probably right about Kingston being the ringleader. I also think Dana's a nut job for wanting to do this and I think you're an even bigger nut job for encouraging her and actually planning everything out," Lund replied in his dry way.
"Oh. So in other words...................you're in, right?" Eddie asked, ignoring the criticism.
Lund chuckled. "You best believe it bro. I LIVE for this kind of excitement!!"
"Cool. I knew I could count on you. And Powell? You think he'll be down for it?" Eddie asked.
"As crazy as Powell is? You know it!" Lund assured him. "I'll fill him in on everything."
"Thanks Kev. Let me know when you've got the surveillance equipment," Eddie said.
"Will do, Eddie. Just one thing----do you think Dana is up for the challenge?"
This time Eddie chuckled. "Lund, she's like you. She LIVES for this kind of excitement," he replied.
"Hmmm......sounds like there might be a future for me and Miss Dana....." Lund said.
"Let's just get this Kingston matter taken care of first. Then you can worry about romancing Dana," Eddie advised.
"Alright, alright. You can really be a stick in the mud sometimes, you know?" Lund joked.
"Yeah, well, enough about me. Just fill Powell in so we can get this show on the road---agreed?"
"You got it!" Lund said as he hung up.
Candygwen
Meanwhile back at Monica's house everyone was enjoying their chilli.
"Wow this is some good chilli." said one of the dancer.
"Yeah my mom can really cook." said Robin.
"And she's an excellent cook. Someone have to be a fool to leave her." said The Choreaographer.
Monica started to blush.
"Thanks!! Eat as much as you want. There's plenty for everyone." said Monica.
"Thanks!" said the other dancer.
"So where are you guys staying tonight?" asked Lulu.
"Well we have been staying at a hotel for the last few days." said the other dancer.
"Nonsense you can spend the night over at my mom's place...I mean if it's alright with my mother." said RObin.
"Of course you guys are more than welcome. I could used some company around here." said Monica.
"Yeah there is enough rooms for everyone." said Lulu.
"And how do you know about all the bedrooms?" asked Monica.
"Robin and I been exploring..checking out the rooms." said Lulu.
"Hey after dinner who is up for some MJ videos and music?" asked the female dancer.
"I am!" said Robin,
"Me too" said Lulu.
"We all are." said the dancers.
"Cool we can have ourselves a little MJ party." said The other dancers.
"Okay everyone you can have the party but don't stay up too late. We have rehearsal tomorrow and it's the last day of reheasral." said The Choeragrapher.
"We promise not to wear oursleves out." said The dancers.
"And don't make a mess in the living room." said Monica.
"Monica how are the costumes coming along. Are they ready yet?" asked The Choreagrapher.
Batman642
Monica laughed as she carried some dishes to the dishwasher. "Are you kidding? I'm gonna be pulling an all-nighter---maybe even two!"
He followed her into the kitchen. "Will you be alright? Can you handle all of that work?" he asked, concerned.
"Of course. I'm a professional. And I absolutely LOVE to work under pressure. It gives me such a high---I can't explain it!" she said with a glow.
"I see. Well, whatever floats your boat I guess," he replied. "I just thought you might need some help."
"From you?" she asked, skeptically.
"I know people," he said with a grin.
"Yes, well so do I, being a PROFESSIONAL and all. But thanks for the offer."
She attempted to exit the kitchen to get more dirty dishes from the dancers, but he quickly stepped in front of her.
"I wanted to ask you something, Monica," he said, putting his hand on her shoulder.
"Well make it fast. I've got dishes waiting for me out there," she replied, rushing him.
Candygwen
"I know we just meet and all but...but I just wanted to know if you were available for a...a date...I mean I totally understand if you can't-"
"I would love to," said Monica inturrupting his blabber.
"Great!! I mean that's great. I guess I'll pick you up tommorrow around eight?"
"Yeah, I'll be waiting," said Monica flirty.
Monica went into the kitchen filling thrilled, but knowing she had to keep her cool in front of him.
"By the way," Monica said turing around, "what should I call...Mr. Choregrapher?"
"No" as he laughed, "call me Felix...just Felix"
"Nice to meet you Felix," said Monica grinning as she turned back to the kitchen.
Meanwhile Charles wanted to have a serious talk about he and Cassie's future.
Robertadamsonlover
"Charles we have been through this before." said Cassie playing with Kalie.
"But Cassie think about it Robin and Lulu are engaged. They are going to get married after they graduate. So why not beat them to the punch?" asked Charles.
"You mean ge married in our senior year?" asked Cassie.
"Yes it's perfect." said Charles.
"Charles why are you pushing for us to get married soon?" asked Cassie.
"Because that way Robin will focus more on Lulu and he can finally keep his distance from you for good this time." said Charles.
"Charles that's ridiculous." said Cassie.
"Come on beautiful!!! You and Robin are no longer on good terms which is a great thing why can't we get engaged?" wondered Charles.
"Because we've been over this too many times before neither of us are mature or ready to get married and if you asked me neither is Robin and Lulu." said Cassie.
"Who's freakin' cares about those two?" annoyed Charles.
"I do well at least Lulu." said Cassie as she secretly cares about Robin as well.
"Cassie so what if they messed their life up by getting married. This is about us." said Charles.
"Charles we have been engaged so many times before and it always ended up in disaster." said Cassie.
"Maybe this timewhen we are engaged it will work this time." said Charles.
"No Charles!!!" said Cassie.
"Come on baby I want to tie the knot the sooner the better.Are you worry about our folks? I know they probably won't approved but this is a chance we have to make." said Charles.
"I'm sorry I just can't. Not now. I'm not ready." said Cassie.
"Cassie don't you love me?" asked Charles.
"Of couse I do but you want to get married for all the wrong reasons. You just doing this to keep me away from Robin and that's not right." said Cassie.
"So in other you have feelings for Robin? You want to have a future with him instead of me." angered Charles.
"Charles that's not fair and you know it." said Cassie.
"No what's not fair is you not thinking about me or the twins." said Charles.
"THAT'S A LIE!!! I THINK YOU AND THE TWINS ALL THE TIME!!!" said Cassie.
"Will you lower your voice before you upset them." warned Charles.
"I know where this is going. I'm going downstairs and I'm taking the twins with me." said Cassie.
Batman642
"Cassie no!! You always want to run away from me when we talk like this, but this time I'm not letting you run away," said Charles as he blocked the door.
Cassie stepped back in suprise and placed the kids down.
"Charles please I don't want us to get into tongiht. Can we please drop the subject," said Cassie.
"Cassie stop it. All I want to do is try and explain to you that I love with all my heart, and that you and my chirldren are the most important things in my life. Cassie I just want to tell the world that your mine, and that my love for you is forever. I'm sorry if don't want me to express my feelings but Cassie you just don't know how much you mean to me. And with a ring on your finger I can finally know that you feel the same way. I love you Cassie Sutton..I love you," said Charles as he started to tear up.
Cassie was speechless as Dana walked in on the heated discussion.
"Is everything alright you guys?" said Dana startled as she felt the tension.
"Yes Mrs. Sutton, I was just leaving. See you later," said Charles as he walked out he door.
Robertadamsonlover
Meanwhile at the Salsa Club, Bill and Marla are the center of attention as they burn the floor.
Finally, Marla needs a break and as they leave the floor to return to their table, everyone claps for them.
"Wow! Were we THAT good?" Marla asked as she sat down, winded.
"Apparently...." Bill replied nodding at the admiring crowd.
"Well it sure was fun!" Marla admitted.
"As soon as you catch your breath and have a drink we can go out there again," he assured her.
"Sure, just give me a few minutes," she agreed as she sipped some ice water.
"Are you feeling less stressed now?" he asked.
Marla nodded. "Oh yes, Bill. I really needed this," she said gratefully.
"I'm glad you're having a nice time. And did I tell you how beautiful you look?"
Marla blushed. "Thank you, Bill. You told me to look sexy," she reminded him.
"You look beautiful AND sexy," he told her.
"And you look very handsome," she said.
"Giselle helps me out with my fashion since she's into modeling," he said.
"You mean you're not a natural?" she teased.
Bill chuckled. "I'll let you in on a secret Marla. I'm practically color blind."
Marla laughed. "Well at least you're honest!"
Bill winked. "Sometimes."
Candygwen
Meanwhile back at Marla's house Robin, Lulu and the rest of the dancers was watching MJ videos. They watching it all night until they decided to play some MJ music and dance so they all move the funiture around and started playing some MJ music everyone was jammin and dancing and having a great time.
Monica and the Choreaographer decided to see what was going on. And they saw what was going on.
"Wow looks like they are a great time." said Monica.
"Yeah I wish MJ was alive to see this. He really has a powerful infuence on these kids." said The Choregrapher.
"I hope they don't wear themselves out." said Monica.
"They won't. They know their responisbility." said The Choregrapher.
Batman642
"Speaking of responsibility, I'd better get upstairs to my sewing room and get started on the costumes," Monica said.
"And I'd better get going," he replied.
"Oh, you're not staying over with the rest of the dancers?" she asked, surprised.
"No, my hotel suite is already paid for so I might as well make good use of it. And anyway, these kids wear me out. I need my space."
Monica laughed. "Well, I'll walk you out to your car," she offered.
He smiled and held out his hand for her to take it. She hesitated at first, but then took his hand and the two of them walked out of the house and down the driveway.
Candygwen
Soon Lulu sw Monica walking the Choreaographer to the driveway and ran got Robin to look.
"Robin look isn't this romantic?" asked Lulu.
"What so romantic about that? She just walked him to the car." said Robin.
"Oh Robin you may have gotten your sight back but you are still blind. They really like each other." said Lulu.
"They just friends Lulu." said Robin.
"I don't know...I think it's going to be more than that." said Lulu.
"Even if it is I don't think it's a good idea for mom to start dating again." said Robin.
"Robin your mother is a grown woman. She have the right to date whenever she wants." said Lulu.
"But my mom through so much...you just don't know what hell been through with my dad." said Robin.
"I'm aware of that Robin. You have start letting your mother live her own life and make her own mistakes." said Lulu.
"That's what I'm afraid of." said Robin.
"Boo I know it may seem akward that your mother might be dating again but she has to live her own life like she is letting you live yours. Anyway the Choreagrapher is really a cool guy.He will do your mother some good. And you like him don't you?" asked Lulu.
"I have no problem with the Choreagrapher and I do like him. I just don't want to see my mother get hurt that's all." said Robin.
"She'll be fine...trust me." said Lulu.
"Hey guys who is up to some dvd movies with Moonwalker and The Jacksons: The American Dream?" asked one of the dancers.
"I am." said Robin.
"We all are." said The dancers.
"Wow talk I better get the popcorn ready." said Lulu.
So Lulu made the popcorn and they all started watching the moives.

Back at Reverand Kingston's house, Devin finally arrives.
"Dad I'm home!" he shouts as he comes through the front door.
Devin switches on the light and is startled to see his father standing there in the dark foyer waiting for him.
"OH!!! You scared me, Dad!"
"What took you so long to get home, Devin?" the Reverand asked.
"I didn't get a ride. I had to take the bus," he explained.
"Yeah, well you're late!" his father complained.
Devin looked up at the clock. "It's not THAT late---it's 9:30," he replied.
The Reverand took a swing at Devin but Devin jumped out of the way just in time.
"Don't back talk me boy. I SAID you're late!"
"Alright, alright, I'm sorry!" Devin said nervously backing away from his father.
"What were you doing with those Suttons anyway?" the Reverand inquired.
"I told you before, Dad. We're doing a show for Michael Jackson," Devin said as he headed for the stairs.
"And I told YOU I don't approve!" the Reverand snapped back, following Devin up the steps.
Devin started taking two steps at a time, attempting to keep a safe distance.

"Dude what is your problem?" asked Devin.
"First of all don't call me dude. I am your father you show me some respect. I have told you how I have feel about that man. He is a disgrace to black people everywhere and he is a disgrace to the man of God." said Kingston.
"OMG you don't actually believe all that lame hype do you? Sure the guy maybe weird but he is no pedophile. He's been aquitted fo Christ sake." said Devin.
"Watch how you talk to me boy. That man bleached his skin and he's a drug addict. I do not no son of mine celebrating a dug addict." said Kingston.
"First of al it's been speculated that he's been addicted to drugs not a fact. And two he did not bleached his skin. He actually does have vitilligo. His doctor explained it. There's pictures of him with blotches all over the net. If you watch the news you would know." said Devin.
"What you are saying I'm stupid?" offended Kingston.
"No I just you need to start watching the news more often and do your history homework." said Devin.
"The bottom line is he is not a good role model and I don't want you to support that man's so called legacy." said Rev. kingston.
"Well at least he's a better father than most people I know." said Devin.
"What you say boy?" angered Kingston.
"You heard me are you death?" snapped Devin.
The Rev. Kingston slapped Devin so hard he fell down on the floor.
"Now say something else I'll knock your ass right back on that floor." yelled Kingston.
"Fuck you!!! I'm going to that tibute anyway." said Devin getting up.
"Oh like hell you will." said Rev. Kingston as grabbed Devin slammed him to the wall.
"Now it's time to learn some respect." said Rev. Kingston as he took his billy club and hit Devin's legs.
"Owwww why you hit like that dad. You promise you won't hurt me anymore." cried Devin.
"Shut you sniffling cry baby." snapped Kingston as he continued to beat Devin with the club.
Kingston continued to beat Devin until he was bruised up.
"Now take your ass to bed and don't come out until I tell you to." angered Kingston.
Batman642
Devin struggled to get up the stairs to his bedroom. When Reverend Kingston made it into his room, Devin rushed to the bathroom to take a "shower." He let the shower run while he was making a call to Mr. Sutton.
(Ring, ring...)
"Hello?" Eddie said.
"Mr. Sutton, you have to help me. I'm really beaten up." said Devin in a whispering tone.
"Devin? Is that you?" said Eddie.
"What's going on, Eddie?" said a worried Jenn.
"Yes it's me...I need help!" Devin screamed.
Suddenly, Reverend Kingston busted into the bathroom and turned off Devin's cell phone.
"Devin? DEVIN? Where are you? Hello?" Eddie exclaimed.
At the Kingston house,
"Who was that, boy?!" Reverend Kingston exclaimed.
"No one; It was Lizzie. I need help with my free throws," Devin replied.
"Do you think I'm dumb, boy? Come out of the bathroom NOW!" the Reverend yelled.
When Devin walked out of the bathroom, his father hit him on the head with a gun.
Reverend Kingston muttered, "Stay away from those Suttons and the Michael Jackson Tribute Show if you know what's good for you."
ilovemax112105
Meanwhile, Eddie is pacing back and forth in his bedroom.
“Eddie, would you please tell me what Devin said?!” Jenn insisted as she paced alongside him
“It sounded like he said he was beaten and needs help,” Eddie replied.
“Well then DO something, Eddie!” Jenn said worried.
“I just can’t go over there like I did when Charles and Mack had disputes, Jenn. I don’t have the authority anymore. I’m not on the force!” he explained.
“Well then CALL THE POLICE!! You have friends in high places, Eddie!”
“I’m not even sure if it was Kingston that beat him, Jenn. He could’ve gotten beaten up on the way home.”
“You know, I can’t believe we’re wasting valuable time having this ridiculous conversation! If you won’t call the cops, I WILL!” Jenn announced as she headed for the phone.
While Jenn made the call, Eddie started getting dressed.
“Eddie, what are you doing now?” Jenn asked puzzled after she finished.
“I’ve gotta get over to that Kingston house. I know I’m not supposed to get involved, but I can’t help it,” he admitted.
Jenn got worried again. “Eddie, I’ve already called 911!”
“Jenn a minute ago, you wanted me to do something! Well? Now I’m DOING something!”
“But what about your heart, Eddie? You just got out of the hospital, and you were just chasing criminals earlier today with Charles and Robin---I just don’t want you to do too much!” she objected.
Eddie put his hands on Jenn’s shoulders and looked her in the eye. “I’ll be fine,” he assured her.
He kissed her tenderly and then grabbed his jacket and hurried out of the bedroom and down the stairs.
Candygwen
Eddie soon go into his car and drove to Kingston's house. Soon Lund and Powell arrived.
"Eddie what are you up to now?" asked Powell.
"Yeah this isn't like you stalking." said Lund.
"I just got a call from Devin and said he was beaten." said Eddie.
"Now you think Kingston beating his own kid?" asked Lund.
"I don't think I know." said Eddie.
"Well you better let us handle it Eddie." said Powell.
"I'm getting involved in this." said Eddie.
"No you're not if you go after Kingston especially this time of night he will report and you will never get your badge back." said Powell.
"He's right just focus on your plan to bring Kingston down and we will look into this." said Lund.
Batman642
So Eddie waited in his car while Powell and Lund went up to Kingston's house. About a half hour later, they were finished with Kingston and on their way to the squad car spotted Eddie's car.
"Eddie, you're still here?" Lund asked as he and Powell approached.
"Just because I'm not getting involved doesn't mean I don't care what happened. So what's the deal?" Eddie asked.
"The DEAL is, we questioned Kingston and we questioned his son and everything seems to be on the up and up," Powell replied.
"And you believe that? I'm telling you that boy called my cell and said he'd been beaten up and needed help!" Eddie insisted.
"We gave him ample opportunity to point the finger Eddie. We were there for a half an hour questioning them both. He had his chance," Lund said.
"Do you really think he's gonna point the finger at his father with him right there in the room?" Eddie asked in disbelief.
"He had his chance," Lund repeated.
"And it's time for YOU to take off and go back home. Don't get any stupid ideas about playing hero, Sutton. I know how you think," Powell warned him.
Everyone stayed quiet.
"Well?" Lund finally said.
"Well what?" Eddie asked.
"We're waiting for you to take off. In fact, we're gonna follow you all the way home to make sure you don't try to pull any funny business," Lund told him.
"I can't believe you were actually my partner!" Eddie fumed as he started his car.
"Believe me, we're doing this for your OWN good," Lund assured him.
"Don't worry about me. Worry about DEVIN," Eddie advised.
"He had his chance, Eddie! What do you want me to do?" Lund asked losing patience.
"I want you to be more than a cop, Kevin! Be human!" Eddie urged.
"Ha!! Alot of good that did you!!" Powell ridiculed him. "Being HUMAN is what got you suspended---remember?"
"I'm not talking to you, Powell. You wouldn't understand," Eddie answered.
"We're following you home, Eddie," Lund said as he walked to his patrol car with Powell at his side.
"That Sutton is a piece of work---ain't he?" Powell asked, annoyed.
Kevin got into the squad car and didn't answer because he was deep in thought.
Candygwen
They finally arrieved at Marla's house. And Eddie got out.
"Eddie we did what have to do. Please don't make us to be the bad guys because we're not." said Lund.
"Yeah believe it or not Sutton we actually cared about you. We don't want you to end up in jail because of stupidity. I want to bring down Kingston just as much as you do. We just need to be smart about it." said Powell.
"This is coming from a guy who offer me a shotgun." said Eddie.
"Well unfortunately some of your bad influence is starting to rub off on me." joked Powell.
"Let just focus on bringing Kingston tomorrow and deal with Devin another time." said Lund.
"It won't be a next if we continue to wait. We have to work on our plan like right now." said Eddie.
Soon the door opened and it was Dana.
"Dana what are you still doing up?" asked Eddie.
"What are you doing hanging out this time of night?" asked Dana.
"Trying to talk some sense into Eddie's thick head of his." said Powell.
"Wanna discussed this over some coffee?" asked Dana.
"Sure we just talking our plans to seduce Kingston." said Eddie.
Batman642
So the three men went into the house and followed Dana into the kitchen where she put on a pot of coffee.
"So I've got a great idea," Eddie started. "Since Devin's call resulted in a 911 situation, we can send Dana in tomorrow undercover as a child welfare worker following up on the 911 call."
"Hold up. I'm lost already. What kind of call did Devin make?" Dana asked.
"He called my cell and said he was beaten up and needed help---then we got cut off. I believe the culprit was his dad, but since I'm suspended I couldn't confront the man, so Jenn called 911 and Powell and Lund got the call and went to the house. But everything SEEMED okay," Eddie explained.
"Oh, so you think Devin was covering for his dad out of fear?" Dana asked.
"You catch on real quick," Lund commended her.
Dana smiled. "Thanks. I watch alot of police dramas."
"So once you get in and throw out a few questions about child abuse, Dana, then you can turn on the charm and pretend to be interested in Kingston. He'll fall for it hopefully," Eddie continued.
"HOPEFULLY??? You think he can resist ALL THIS???" Dana asked indignantly as she pointed at her body.
The men laughed.
"ANYWAY, once he falls for you, then switch the conversation to MJ some kind of way and get him to start talking about his death and so on and so forth and then bring up the Tribute and how excited you are about it and then--- BOOM!! That should set him off!" Eddie planned.
Dana listened and nodded. "Cool. I can do that," she agreed.
"You sure?" Powell asked.
Dana sucked her teeth. "Did I stutter?" she asked as she started pouring the coffee.
Candygwen
"Dana are you sure you re up for the job?" asked Lund.
"You guys have been hangin' with Eddie way too long. I told you I've got this." said Dana.
"We just don't want you to get hurt Dana. Remember this isn't a game. This is real." said Eddie.
"Will you relax and drink your coffee." annoyed Dana.
After they all drank their coffee Kevin Lund and Powell wentback on patrol while Eddie and Dana went off to bed. The next day at Bill's house Giselle woke up and decided to fix breakfast. As she got out of her room she has saw clothes all over the hallway from panites, ties and stockings. Then she heard a noise in Bill's room Giselle rsuh to the room as she open the door she saw Bill and Giselle in bed with nothing on except the bed sheets.
"OH SNAP!!! DON'T COME IN!!! DON'T LOOK!!!" screamed Bill & Marla.
"OMG that is so gross!!! Uncle Bill Really?!??" shocked Giselle
Then Giselle fainted.
Batman642
Marla gasped in disbelief as she sat up in the bed clutching the sheets and hiding behind them.
"OMG is she alright, Bill?!" she asked as Giselle was laying on the floor.
Bill groaned as he got out of bed and quickly pulled on his pajama shorts.
"I don't know what's wrong with her! All I know is that I need this right now like I need a hole in the head! For crying out loud!" he complained as he knelt down next to Giselle and felt for a pulse.
"Well," he continued, "she's not dead," he finally announced.
He picked up Giselle's limp body off of the floor and carried her out, back to her own room and dropped her onto the bed.
Soon he was back in the room with Marla. who was still quite shaken up over the whole incident.
"Now..................where were we?" he asked as he slid back into bed next to her.
"You can't be serious?" she asked.
"I'm VERY serious, Marla," he said as he snuggled up next to her.
"Bill, the mood has totally been ruined, thanks to Giselle," Marla informed him, getting out of the bed. "And where is she anyway?"
"I put her back in her bed where she belongs!"
"But Bill, she's not sleeping, she's UNCONSCIOUS! She needs help!" Marla insisted as she hurried to Giselle's room.
"This can't be happening...." Bill moaned as he lay in his bed alone.
Candygwen
Marla went to check up on Giselle. Giselle finally woke up.
"What just happened?" asked Giselle.
"Thank God you alright!!!" relieved Marla.
Then Bill showed up.
"You see I told you she was okay!" said Bill.
"Oh now I remember you two were naked at your age doing it. I am so going to be sick." said Giselle.
"Young lady don't start!" said Bill.
"Look I really have to be going." said Marla.
"But Marla we're not done yet." disappointed Bill.
"Bill I really had a great time last night. It was wonderful but I have a son and people at my house worry sick about right now and I need to get going." said Marla.
"Oh alright...but we have to do it again." said Bill.
"Oh we will." said Marla as she and Bill kissed.
"Ewww I'm still here." said Giselle.
"Got back to sleep Giselle. I'll drive you home just give me time to get dress." said Bill.
Meanwhile back at Marla's house Cassie woke up depressed.
"I don't know what's wrong with me. Why am I feeling so sad. I's has nothing to do with the argument Charles and I had last night. I feel fine but I feel awful that I have hurt someone." wondered Cassie to herself.
"Well well well look who's finally evil mean." said Lizzie barging in.
"Lizzie will you knocked geez!!!" said Cassie.
"Hey Cassie are you going to be at the Rev. today?" asked Tay.
"No she not Tay so why bother asking her. She never been supportive to tribute in the first place." said Lizzie.
"Lizzie that's a lie. I have spent all day working on that portrait." said Cassie.
"Who are you kidding you don't want to help us you never did and I didn't appreciate the way treated Robin yesterday." said Lizzie.
"Look the situation between me and Robin is none of your business Lizzie and I don't want you hanging out with him anymore." said Cassie.
"Excuse you, You can't tell me what to do. I have the right to hang out whoever I want." said Lizzie.
"Girls calmed down mom and dad will hear you." said Tay.
"STAY OUT OF THIS TAY!!!" yelled Cassie and Lizzie.
"Look I don't what has happened between you and Robin and I don't care. All I know is the tribute show was almost cancel thanks to you." said Lizzie.
"What!!" shocked Cassie.
"You really hurt Robin's feelings yesterday. Lucky Lizzie and The Choreagrapher convince him not to cancel the show." said Tay.
"No thanks to you Cassie." snapped Lizzie.
"Look I didn't mean to hurt his feelings. I didn't realize he was going to be a big baby about it. At least you guys still have the tribute show." said Cassie.
"Why would we even bother talking to you? You think about no one but yourself. We don't need you at the show. The show is better off without you. I'm outta here." said Lizzie.
"Wait up Lizzie!" said Tay.
Batman642
After her conversation with Lizzie and Tay, Cassie realized why she felt down and also realized what she needed to do.
She closed her bedroom door behind her and took out her cell phone and sent Robin a quick text.
"F.y.i., we got the soda stains out of my blouse. Sorry I freaked out on you yesterday. I know it was an accident. Cassie"
After she sent the text, she felt a little better. She put her phone away and went to the nursery to get her twins up.
Candygwen
"Morning little ones. Time to get up for breakfast." said Cassie as she picked them up.
She washed them up and got them dress soon Charles walked in.
"Morning beautiful." said Charles.
"Hey Charles." said Cassie as she got the twins dressed.
"Hey I know you still mad at me and I want to apologize about last night. I didn't mean to try to force into marriage. I just want to spend the rest of my life with you. I want to have a great future together with twins of course." said Cassie.
"I know Charles. I want to spend the rest of my life with you as well butI'm not ready to get married right now. We are not ready marriage. We were hardly ready to be parents." said Cassie.
"But we done a great job raising them." said Charles.
"Yes with our parents help. Charles there will be a time that our folks won't be there to take care of the twins. If we are going to future together we have to step up parents by spending more time with them. Plus I want to go to college after I graduate. Charles when the time is right I will get married. Right now lets just wait okay." said Cassie.
"Alright it may seems long but you are worth the wait." said Charles as he and Cassie kiss.
Soon the two went downstairs for breakfast then suddenly they look out the window and saw Bill and Marla getting out the car kissing.
Batman642
"Charles look! They seem to really like each other!" Cassie said, excited.
"Hmm......" Charles replied.
"What's wrong? You're not happy for your Mom?"
"If she's happy I'm happy. I just don't like that guy, and he HATES me," Charles told her.
"Oh, because of what happened with his niece?"
"Yeah, but I don't wanna talk about that," Charles said as he left the window holding Kalie in his arms.
"We don't have to," Cassie told him as she followed him into the kitchen with Colin.
"I can't believe Mom spent the night with him already!" Charles remarked as he put Kalie in her high chair.
"Well when she comes in don't say anything to upset her, Charles!" Cassie advised.
"Don't worry I won't," he assured her.
Minutes later, Marla came into the kitchen and was startled to see Chassie and the twins preparing for breakfast.
Candygwen
"Charles! Cassie!" startled Marla.
"Morning Mrs A." said Cassie.
"Morning Mom." said Charles.
"What are you two doing up?" surprsied Marla.
"Fixing breakfast." said Charles.
"Wow looks you and Mr. Bill had a great time last night." said Cassie.
"Well it was a nice and pleasant evening Cassie." said Marla.
"Must've been more than pleasnt you didn't come home last night." said Charles.
Then Cassie kicked Charles hard.
"OOf." cried Charles.
"What he meant was we was surprised you was out all night." said Cassie.
"Well lets just say it was a moment to remember." said Marla. being head over heels.
"What do you mean by that?" asked Charles suspiciously.
"You figure it out Charles. I'm going upstairs to tke a shower." said Marla leavin the kitchen.
Batman642
"Nice going, Charles. REAL smooth!" Cassie said sarcastically, frowning.
Charles was busy rubbing his shin. "You really hurt me, Cassie," he said in pain.
"Sorry but you asked for it. I told you to watch what you say to her!" Cassie scolded.
"That's easier said than done when it's your MOTHER," he tried to explain.
"Daddy okay?" Kalie asked.
"No, Mommy kicked me," Charles told her, still rubbing his leg.
"Daddy's fine, Kalie! He's just pretending!" Cassie interrupted.
"Don't hit Mommy!!" Colin shouted. "Mommy BAD!!"
"Bad Mommy!! Bad Mommy!!" Kalie said as she joined her brother in a shouting match.
Charles started to snicker. "Yeah...........BAD MOMMY," he agreed, shaking his finger at Cassie.
Cassie threw her hands up in frustration. "Alright, Alright, I'm Sorry!!! Mommy's sorry, okay???"
"Kiss Daddy!!!" Kalie demanded.
"I love my kids!" Charles said laughing as he grabbed Cassie around the waist and kissed her.
"Yay!!!!!!" the twins screamed as their parents continued to kiss.
Candygwen
Meanwhile back at Monica's house Robin and Lulu woke up got dressed.
"Morning Lulu." said Robin.
"Morning Boo!!" greeted Lulu.
The two of them kiss.
"Are you ready for the last day of rehearsal?" asked Robin.
"Don't you know it. The tribute is going to be great." said Lulu.
"Hey where are the others?" asked Robin.
"Probably sleep. We did stayed up awfully late last night." said Lulu.
As soon as they got downstair to the living room they saw the living was a huge mess.
"Whoa look at this mess." shocked Lulu.
"Yeahh I guess we did let the party get a little bit out of hand." said Robin.
"No you think?!?" asked Lulu sarcasticly.
"Come on lets clean this mess up before mom wakes up and ahve a fit." said Robin.
The two startd cleaning up soon the dancers came downstairs.
"Whoa did we do that?" asked one of the dancers.
"No Oscar the Grouch and his crew decided to drop by and leave us a present Who you think did this?." said Lulu sarcasticly.
"Lulu!!!" snapped Robin.
"Whoa we are so sorry. I guess we forgot to clean up after oursleves before we went to bed." said the other dancer.
"Yeah we are so used to sleeping in hotels we forgot this is your home." said the female dancer.
"Hey biggie! It wasn't entirely you guys fault. Let partied too. We are much to blame." said Robin.
"Yeah" said Lulu.
"Let us help you clean. We definitely do not want disrespect your mother's house." said the other dancers.
"Yeah she's been so nice to us and we don't want to lose her respect." said the female singer.
"Thanks you guys." said Robin.
Batman642
As Robin was cleaning, he bent over and his cell phone fell out of his pocket. When he picked it up, he saw that he had an unopened text message and when he saw that it was from Cassie his heart started pounding because he didn't know what to expect.
He got up enough courage to finally read it and was relieved to find out that she actually apologized for going off on him.
Robin decided to text her back.
Candygwen
Robin text apology accepted. I really want us to friends again Cassie. But I will give your space. You are still welcome to participate in the tribute. You are always welcome. But like I said before I really want us to be friends again. Love Robin.
"Hey Robin will you stop playing around with that cell phone and help us?" annoyed Lulu.
"Alright alright hold you horses." said Robin putting uphis cell.
Robin continued to help clean up. They finally got the livingroom all cleaned up so they all sat on the couchto relax and watch televison.
Soon Monica came downstairs.
"Morning everybody!!!" said Monica.
"Morning." said Everybody.
"Wow this livingroom looks sparkling clean. And I was worried for nothing." laughed Monica.
Batman642
Robin stepped up, hugged and gave his mother a big fat kiss on the cheek. "Us? Leave a mess? I wouldn't do that to you, Mom. You know I love you!"
Monica laughed even more. "Am I in the right house?" she teased. "What have you done with the REAL Robin?"
Everyone laughed.
"It's good to see you in such a good mood, Mom," Robin remarked.
"That's because I got alot of work accomplished last night," she bragged.
"Oh? Did you finish some costumes already?" Lulu asked, excited.
"Some? How about ALL of them!" Monica corrected her.
"No way!!" Lulu gushed.
"Yes way!!" Monica played along.
Robin hugged Monica again, this time picking her up and spinning her around. "That's my mom!!!" he said happily.
Monica squealed. "Put me down!!" she pleaded.
Robin put her down and grabbed Lulu's hand. "Let's go upstairs and check out the costumes!!"
Candygwen
"How about I take the costumes ad head to the Rev. I am sure Lizzie and Tay would want their costumes as well." said Monica.
"Oh yeah I almost forgot about them." said Robin.
"So what are we all waiting for lets go." said The dancers.
So they went to the Rev. and took the costumes. Meanwhile back at Marla's house Charles, Cassie, Lizzie, Jeron & Tay was getting ready as well.
"Come on don't you want to come?" asked Charles.
"I do Charles but I have no one to watch the twins. Dana have plans, the same with my dad. And Mom and Nate are at work. And your mother had a long night she probably not up to it." said Cassie.
"What about grandpa and Aunt Vera?" asked Tay.
"Tay Grandpa is probably too old to take care of the twins." said Cassie.
"But Aunt Vera isn't." said Lizzie.
"I don't know." said Cassie.
"Calm down I will look after the twins." said Marla as she walk down the stairs.
Batman642
"For real Mrs. A?" Cassie asked, very surprised.
"Yeeeeeeeeessssssssssss......FOR REAL!" Marla replied flippantly.
"Gee, thanks so much," Cassie said, impressed with Marla's stamina.
"Mom you got in kinda late----I mean EARLY this morning. You sure you're up for the task? Colin and Kalie can be quite a handful," Charles warned.
"As if I don't know Colin and Kalie? I live with them, Charles. I know what they're like!" Marla snapped.
Charles decided not to push his luck since he wanted Cassie to come along. "Cool, Mom. Thanks---we owe you!"
"Now beat it before I change my mind," she said yawning as she sat down on the bottom step.
"Yay! We're all going!" Lizzie cheered and clapped happily. "I've gotta call Kendra and Devin!" she announced.
Candygwen
Soon Lizzie called Kendra and asked her if she is ready. And Kendra said yes she will be at the Rev in a few minutes. Then Lizzie called Devin but she didn't get any answer so she left a message on her cell phone.
Afterwards everyone got ready and left. Meanwhile Marla was in the kitchen cleaning up the kids mess.
"I do these kids a favor at leqast they can do is clean up after themselves." said Marla complaining.
Soon Dana came downstairs.
"Hey morning girl>' said Dana getting a bowl of cereal.
"Morning." said Marla.
"So tell me how was your evening last night. Tell me everything and don't leave out any details." said Dana.
Batman642
"Can we have this conversation later? I'm really tired...." Marla sighed.
"Tired? That's a good thing! That means you must've had an eventful date!" Dana observed.
"We ate, we drank, we talked, we danced. That's abo
