Chapter Eleven

Me: I'm fine, just some bad news, typical stuff.

Mom: Oh, god. You're not Pregnant, are you?

Me: What the hell? First of all, no. Second, it would be a good thing if I were because the miracle of life is amazing and all that jazz. Third, how? I mean, Buck's hurt, I'm hurt. How are we going to even-

Mom: Okay! Okay, I get it.

Me: Baby ears. All I'm saying is, we're gonna have to be careful in the jungle for a while, Shelby is a bad mamma jamma... did I just say that? Anyways, we're going to the ice age today, gonna introduce the in laws to the herd... pray for me?

Mom: Ha, I'll pray for the herd, they will have some shit to take, from what you've told me.

Me: Damn right. Anyways, I gotta go, Rodger is getting impatiant.

Mom: Bye, I love you.

Me: You too, bye.

I hung up the rock phone and threw it over me shoulder, getting ready to leave. Marcus actually decided it would be fun to fly, after all, he took on Shelby for god's sake!

"Ready to fly, Mark?" I said.

"Eh." Mark said "So so." I laughed.

*LINE* *TIME LAPSE*

"How are you enjoying everything?" I asked Erica and Uncle Sheldon.

"Splendid, my dear, absolutely splendid." Uncle Sheldon answered.

"I love your family, Suzy." Erica said sweetly. "Ellie is a very nice person, and her daughter Peaches is a sweet young lady."

"Oh, thank you. Gosh, she's getting to be a big girl, she'll be fourteen in December. Man, she was just a young 'un when I got here. She was like, ten." I said back.

"SUZAN!" I heard the screaming twins say in unison.

"Oh, Crash and Eddie, getting into trouble already?" I asked in a teasing sing-song tone, they looked all cool at each other, then me.

"Oh, Suzan, Suzan, Suzan." Eddie said nonchalantly.

"You're only in trouble if you get caught." Crash finished.

A big, black, old-looking, one-eye-one-color-and-the-other-is-another-color weasel ran up, and had them both by the fur on their chests (in one hand, too) half a foot off the ground, in a second. "We're in trouble." the two said in unison.

"Suzy! Uncle Chris!" Buck yelled, running over to us. "Boys, why don't you go settle this like gentlemen with Uncle Chris... away from here."

"Yes, sir." Crash said.

"No problem." Eddie added.

Once they were out of earshot, I said, "Buck, if your uncle kills them... I blame you." I laughed. "So what is it you wanted to talk about?"

"I'm not going to mince words." He took a deep breath, "I think we should stay here and raise a family together and go back when the kids are old enough." He squeezed his eye shut and acted like I might slap him across creation. And yet, I didn't.

"Good idea." I said, without thinking, "But, won't you miss Rudy, and Shelby?"

"I love you more than I could ever miss Rudy... besides he's young, he'll live. When the kids get older, we can take them to our old tree, teach them the way we used to live." Buck answered. "I think we should extend the family tree, you know, have a big family to bring to mum's place on holiday." Buck grinned.

I smiled, "Okay, that sounds great."
