Two Months Later
"Jesus woman! Get up!" said Shane knocking on Abrielle's door.
"WHY!" shouted Abrielle. "It is freaking Saturday!"
"Get your ass out of that bed, or I will yank you out of it!" shouted Bret through the door.
"BRET!!!" shouted Abrielle jumping out of bed and jerking the door open.
"Hey baby girl," said Bret hugging Abrielle. "Happy Birthday."
"Holy crap. It is the fourteenth," said Shane.
"You forgot!" said Abrielle looking at her father.
"No," said Shane pulling Bri into a hug. "Happy Birthday. But I do have to go do something that you can't see and Bret has to help. So you are going to Cameron and going to hang out with Claude."
"What!" said Abrielle. "Seriously. He makes me work…"
"Ha. That's good for you," said Bret.
"Whatever," said Bri closing the door to change.
Cameron
"Hey!" said Abrielle walking into the house.
"Happy birthday," said Claude from his recliner.
"Thanks," said Bri hugging him. "Does that mean the free labor is waved for today and I can chill?"
"Work builds character," chuckled Claude.
"Told you," said Bret. "We will be back later"
"Bye," said Bri from the couch.
"But," said Claude after the door closed. "I guess you can have a break toady."
"Yes!" said Abrielle.
"WHAT! That's not fair! I had to work on my birthday!" said Jeff leaning on the door frame.
"AHH!!!" shouted Abrielle jumping up from the couch and running over to him!
"Happy Birthday!" said Jeff hugging her.
"What'd you get me?" asked Abrielle.
"What? Am I not a good enough present?" asked Jeff with mock hurt in his voice.
"Yeah, but you are talking to a thirteen year old who likes material things," said Abrielle.
"Figures," said Matt walking up behind Jeff.
"AHHH!!!!" shouted Abrielle pushing past Jeff to hug Matt.
"Ha! The better Hardy wins…again…" said Matt hugging Abrielle.
"Jerk," said Jeff.
"I love you both the same. I just see Matt less than I do you," said Abrielle.
Abrielle, Matt, Jeff, and Claude sat around for two hours talking about Matt and Jeff's time away. By the time Shane and Bret got back Jeff had Abrielle in the make-shift ring in the back yard.
"You know, I knew I shouldn't have left her here," said Shane walking into the yard.
"Why? I am having fun," said Abrielle.
"Just don't hurt yourself," said Shane.
"Maybe I should steal her away and put her through what her momma went through," chuckled Bret.
"Naw, I don't think her head could handle it," laughed Shane.
"I don't know. If she is truly your's and Lyl's kid, I think her head is hard enough, she would survive," chuckled Bret.
"You got a point there," said Shane.
Dinner
"So, what is for dinner?" asked Abrielle when her, Matt and Jeff came back in the house.
"Food," said Shane.
"Well duh," said Abrielle.
"Cooking out," said Claude.
"Yum," said Abrielle.
Bri helped prep ever thing for dinner and set the table in the dinning room. Once the burgers were pulled off the grill everyone piled into the kitchen and got their food.
Everyone crowded around the table. It was silent for a while since everyone had food stuffed into their mouth.
"So," said Abrielle swallowing the rest of her burger. "What did ya'll get me for my birthday?"
"Is our company not enough?" joked Bret.
"No," laughed Abrielle.
Before Bret could retaliate his cell phone started ringing.
"If you will excuse me," said Bret standing up.
Bret walked into the living room out of ear shot and answered the phone.
"Hello?" said Bret.
"You want to tell me why I am getting a phone call saying that I have lost custody of my daughter?!" shouted Lyllian.
"If memory serves me correct, you signed over custody of Bri to me while she is in the US," said Bret.
"That….but you… Bret, that was low, even for you," said Lyllian.
"Lyllian, you wouldn't have signed over custody to me if you had planned on Bri coming home. You know as well as I do that she wasn't going back to Calgary. Now she can stay here and it not be a legal battle," said Bret.
"Wont be a legal battle my ass!" said Lyllian.
"Been over this with the judge. Since you signed over full custody of Bri while she was in the US, Bri was mine to with what I want. Once Shane told the judge what happened over the past few months, he agreed that Shane should have custody of Bri," said Bret. "You didn't want her anymore, now you don't have her."
Bret hung up the phone and walked back into the dinning room.
"What was that about?" asked Shane.
"Lyllian," said Bret.
"What did she want?" asked Abrielle.
"You want to explain that Shane?" asked Bret.
"What? What's going on?" asked Abrielle.
"Well, since you would be staying in the US for a while, your mom signed over custody to Bret," said Shane. "Well, I went to the judge today and Bret signed over custody to me."
"What?!" said Matt and Jeff, Jeff choking on food.
"Wait…I don't have to go back? I can stay here?" asked Abrielle.
"If you want," said Shane.
Abrielle got up and ran over to Shane and hugged him.
"This is the best birthday present ever!" said Abrielle.
Shane hugged her back. He was ecstatic that she wanted to stay with him. He really didn't care if she really wanted to stay with him or it was joy that she didn't have to live with her mom anymore. Either way, he was happy. He finally knew what happened to Lyllian, and he got a daughter. His life couldn't get any better.
