A few hours later Zander and Emily show up with baby Kristina. Cameron still has some boxes in the living room but for the most part has everything moved it.

�So the place looks great.� Alexis looks at him. �My dad always did have a keen eye for decorating.�

Alexis kicks one of the boxes down the hall.

Giving her the evil eye. �Don�t worry I�ll have all this stuff put away in no time.�

Alexis bends down and picks something out of one of the boxes. �You call this stuff it looks more like junk to me.�

Cameron holds up his hands. �She speaks.�

�He�s just mad at me because I refuse to speak to him on his juvenile, arrogant level.�

�Who are you kidding.� Cameron yells. �She refuses to speak to me at all.�

�Well maybe if you didn�t drop me out in the hall and then lock me out I�d still be speaking to you.�

Zander interrupts �You dropped Alexis in the hall?�

�In nothing but my bathrobe never the less.�

Cameron notices Emily trying not to laugh which makes him burst out. �It was rather amusing.�

Alexis picks up a pillow and throws it at him. �Your father here has a sick sense of humor.�

Throwing the pillow back at her. �You know Zander I love it when Alexis gets all hot and bothered about every little thing�. It so makes life interesting.�

Alexis is about to yell at him when Emily speaks. �Well it looks like the two of you have everything under control.� She puts her arm around Zander. �I think we really should get going.�

�No Emily please don�t leave on this rude man�s account.� Alexis pleads. �In fact you�ve been so great with Kristina these last few days, why don�t you two stay for dinner.�

Emily looks at Zander �Maybe we should came back another time once the two of them  get settled in more.�

Zander looks at both Alexis and Cameron who have this please don�t leave me here with the other look on their face. �Actually I am kind hungry.� He looks at Emily. �What do you say we go down to that new Chinese place around the corner and pick up some food for us all.�

With a defeated look. �Fine Zander and I will be back shortly, try not to wake the baby.�

Cameron picks up a box. �What on earth did I get all this junk.�

Alexis takes it from him. �That so called junk belongs to me.� She puts it down on the couch. �Now do you think you can get all of your boxes out of my living room before Zander and Emily come back?�

�Not unless you say it.�

�Unless I say what?�

He tilts his head and looks at her. �You know.�

Rolling her eyes. �Must you be so literal?�

�Say it or I won�t move another box.�

�Okay fine �Our living room��

Walking towards his room with a box. �Now was that so hard.�

Muttering to herself. �Not as hard as your head.�

Yelling from the other room. �I heard that.�

She picks up a pillow and throws it towards the hall hitting a picture and knocking it to the floor with a crash. The baby starts to cry.

Sticking his head out from around the corner. �See what your juvenile tantrums have caused now.�


~ An Hour Later ~



Knock at the door.

�That�s probably the kids back with the food, I�ll get it.�

�Well it�s nice to know you�ll be good for something around here.�

�If I were you I�d be nice to me because without me you won�t be seeing your daughter.�

�Oh just open the door and let them in.�

With his hand on the doorknob. �Say your sorry.�

Getting angrier by the second. �You know this little game of your is getting tiresome.�

Laughing. �Maybe so but I�m still in control.�

Yelling �I knew sooner or later you�d admit this was all about controlling me.�

Placing a finger over his lips. �Shhhhhhhs you�ll wake the baby again.�

�Still yelling. �It�s my baby I�ll wake her if I want.�

From outside the door. �umm do you two mind the food is getting cold.�

�I�ll open the door son as soon as Alexis gives the word.�

Walking towards the door. �Oh I have a word or two for you.� She tries to push him away. �Let go of the knob.�

Letting go of the knob but putting his back against the door. �I just love being this close to you.�

Frustrated �Why on earth did I ever agree to let you move in?�

Emily from outside. �You know I think they�re getting better at this.�

Cameron looks at Alexis

�Okay fine I�m sorry.�

�Sorry for what?�

�I�m sorry that your such a jerk.�

�Alexis will you just tell the man you�re sorry.� Zander begs.

Alexis walks away from the door pouting. �No I will not.� She sits on the couch.

Cameron opens the door. �God you have to love her sprit.�

Zander places his hand on his dad�s shoulder as they walk in. �Dad right now I don�t think Alexis likes anything about yours.�

Emily places the food on the table. �What do you say we eat?�

Alexis standing up and grabbing a box of chicken chow main. �I�m sorry I�m really not in the mood for company anymore. So I�m just going to go eat in my room.� She looks at Cameron �but by all means please stay and eat with �..him�

Cameron looks at her as she begins to walk off. �Spoiled sport.�

She stops short and then walks over to him. �Spoiled sport?�

�I just call them as I see them.�

�Oh this isn�t being a spoiled sport.� She gets closer to him �Because see if I were a spoiled sport.� She holds the little box over his head. �I do something like this.� And with that dumps it over his head.

Cameron looks over at Zander and Emily who aren�t quit sure weather to laugh or not as Alexis makes her way to her bedroom.

�If the two of you will excuse me for a moment.� Cameron says opening all the boxes and picking up the one filled with the most liquid. �I have a score to settle.�

Cameron walks off and Zander quickly grabs Emily�s hand and they run out.

Alexis is in her bedroom standing at the foot of her bed. She�s muttering to herself as she undoes the buttons on her shirt and slips it off. �The nerve of that man.� She takes her shoes off and throws them into the closet. �Just who the hell does he think he is anyway?� She asked kicking off her skirt.

�I�ll tell you who the hell I think I am.� He yells pouring the food over top her head.

She turns and looks at him. �I can�t believe you just did that.�

�What it�s okay for you to dumb food on me but not okay for me to retaliate?�

Without so much as a hesitation she wraps her arms around his neck and pulls him into a long heated kissed. Until suddenly out of nowhere she stops. �I�m sorry�

�Why, I�m not.� He states as she walks off into her bathroom.

�I�ll see you in the morning�.. Have a good nights sleep.�

Cameron turns and walks out closing her door behind him. �I�d have a better one if I could share it with you.�
