"What are you doing?" Jason asked Sam as she arranged a pint of ice cream and a two-liter of soda on the coffee table. She'd been running around non-stop all day; it couldn't be good for the baby.

Sam stopped and blew the hair out of her face. "These are Livvie's favorites. Chocolate peanut-butter cup ice cream, and cream soda."

Jason nodded, "And she needs these… why?"

She looked at him frustrated, "Because this was her first day of school. She'll need to be cheered up."

"Why? Is she going to be upset?"

"Of course. Switching schools partway through the year can be very difficult. Everyone has already bonded, and in case you hadn't noticed, Livvie is gorgeous." He gave her a puzzled look so she kept going. "The girls are gonna hate her! She's obviously prettier than any of them, and that triggers jealousy. The guys are gonna want her, and the girls are gonna want to be her. Especially when they find out she's got a hottie like you for her dad." She winked and sashayed into the kitchen.

Sam thinks I'm hot? Well that's inter—Guys? Why are guys gonna be near Livvie? She's not allowed to date, or even look at guys! I'll send her to a convent! Jason was so deep in his thoughts he didn't hear the knock on the door. "Jason?" He looked up to see Sam looking at him strangely. "What are you doing?"

"Thinking."

She smiled, "First time's the hardest. Get the door will you? I'm expecting more baby stuff."

He strode over, and opened the door to find Courtney on the other side of it. "What can I do for you Courtney?"

She walked past him and into the penthouse. "I want to know why you never told me about your daughter when we were married."

Jason shut the door, and hoped Sam would stay in the kitchen until he got rid of her. "I didn't really ever consider Livvie my daughter. Not until a few days ago. She was Jason Quartermaine's daughter."

Courtney scoffed, "But you got over that in a matter of days huh?"

"Livvie had her mother, I didn't think she needed me." Or wanted me, Jason added in his head. "Why do you care?"

"I could have been her mother Jason! We could have raised her together as our child. Instead you wait until I'm conveniently out of the picture and you've moved on with your little midget whore!"

Sam stormed out of the kitchen, "Let's get one thing straight Corky. Livvie had a mother whom she loved very much who loved her in return. She didn't need you then, and she doesn't need you now. Why don't you run along, your 'foster mother' skills are being wasted here. Wait, your skills are nonexistent. Leave anyway." Courtney gave her a dirty look before flouncing away, and slamming the door behind her.

"You okay?" Jason asked turning towards her. Sam's reply was cut off by Livvie coming through the front door. "Why was I almost mowed over by a transvestite?"

Sam resisted the urge to giggle, "That was Courtney. Jason's ex-wife."

Livvie gave a shudder, "You went to bed with that? Yuck! She looks like a gorilla! Glad to see your taste in women has gotten better," she said eyeing Sam.

Before Jason could protest Livvie was across the room and wrapped around Sam. "Hiya."

"Hey kiddo, how was your day?" Sam led Livvie to the couch and they sat down and began to devour the ice cream and soda.

"Pretty good. My classes are lame though. Study hall, home-ec, Calculus, and gym." She began to ravenously eat the ice cream, and a slightly amused Jason looked on.

"You're going to ruin your appetite," Jason said lamely.

Livvie frowned at him, "That was weird. Very parental of you to worry about my appetite, but I'll be fine."

"Did you meet anyone?" Sam asked.

"That's the thing, it's like someone forgot to give me the secret password or something. I was avoided like the plague."

"I'm sorry," Sam said sincerely.

Livvie shrugged her shoulders, "It's cool, I've always been kind of a loner. I just don't trust people very easily." She finished off the ice cream and stood up, dusting her jeans off. "I'm gonna go call Justus. He hates when I bother him at the office." She grabbed her backpack and skipped up the stairs.

"Maybe I should send her to an all girls school," Jason said thinking out loud.

Sam snorted, "That would be pointless. Guys can sniff out a hot girl and like wise. Besides I don't think Livvie is your average every-day teenager. She's more mature than to just find a guy and sleep with him."

Jason's eyes bulged out of his head, "I'll kill any guy that comes near her."

She smirked at him, "I don't think Livvie would appreciate that very much. Besides, she's sixteen; she can pretty much take care of herself now." Sam patted her belly, "You can ruin this one's love life all you want though." She walked over to him and took his hand in her smaller one. "Don't worry so much about Livvie. She's your daughter after all," she kissed his cheek gently and followed Livvie's path up the stairs.

Jason touched his cheek. What were these girls doing to him?

A/N: This was complete and total filler. I can't even begin to figure out a way for Livvie to meet the other teens, without it being completely lame. Thanks so much to everyone who reviewed last chapter. This is my most popular story, but definitely the hardest to write, so I appreciate you guys sticking with me, depsite my spaz like tendencies.
