The next morning before leaving the hotel Danny went over and held Jessica's waist. He looked into her eyes and said, "I know this is hard, but we're on vacation with our boys and we need to enjoy this time. Anything baby related we'll discuss when we get home, okay?"

"I just don't understand. I never in my life had this much trouble getting pregnant. Ever! I never even had to try before! The only one we did try with was Grayson, and that happened on the first go! I don't understand how my body is just suddenly not ovulating. I mean, I understand that I'm older, I'm not twenty years old anymore, but I'm not old! I'm in my thirties, it's not like I'm trying to get pregnant in my forties or fifties!"

"I know, babe, and I'm sorry. I really do feel terrible. Sometimes life throws you in an unexpected curve ball, but we can fight! We are strong and I know we can get through this. Whatever decision you make I will one hundred percent support it. I love you and we're in this together."

"Thank you. I love you too." Jessica hugs him and lays on his chest.

"Mom, what the hell was going on last night? Why were you and Danny in the hallway at four in the morning, and where is Grayson?"

*Sighs* "It's a long story.. Why were you just getting in?!"

"Heh! We just- we um.. Mom, I'm twenty one years old!"

"I don't care! I can still beat your ass! What were you doing?"

"Mrs. Huston, we crashed a party by the ocean. We had a few drinks, but don't worry, we didn't get into any trouble."

"Thank you, Caroline. See, James, that's all I wanted!"

A few days later the whole family was laying out in the sun.  Grayson was building a sandcastle with Danny, and It warmed Jessica's heart to see.

"Mommy, look what me and daddy made!"

"Oh Grayson, that's so cool!  Good job, buddy!" Jessica says taking a picture of them.

"Now I am the monster and I gonna smash it!" Grayson says in a loud and for him, a pretty deep voice.

"Oh my goodness!" Jessica laughs as Grayson stands up and acts like a monster.

"ROOOOAAAAAR!!" He shouts and smashes their sandcastle.

"Oh my, you are so scary, Mr. Monster!"

"No mommy, it's just me!" He smiles and goes back to his normal voice.

"Oh thank God!" Jessica plays along and grabs her chest in relief.

She giggles and continues watching them play.

***

The next night Jessica and Danny had the boys watch Grayson so they could go out.

Jessica wore a long flowy summer dress with her hair down but clipped out of her face. She wore very minimal makeup and some cute sandals.

She and Danny walked hand in hand on the beach. Danny held Jessica's shoes in one hand and Jessica held her dress up so it didn't get full of water and sand.

The sun was setting and the sight was beautiful.
Danny grabbed a flower and put it in Jessica's hair.
He softly grazed his fingers on her jaw line and looked lovingly into her eyes.

"Jessica, I want you to know that I love you more now in this moment than I ever have before."

"Awe Danny.."

Danny stops and looks deeply into her eyes.
"I love the way your skin glows, the way your eyes sparkle.. The way your cute little nose crinkles when you laugh."

Jessica giggles and Danny smiles, "See!"

She puts her hand over her nose and laughs.

"I love how your golden hair looks under the sun.. The way your tan skin looks after a long day on the island. I love your big bright smile that can light up any room, and I love your warm heart. I'm a fool for you, Jessica Lange."

Jessica's eyes begin to tear up and she smiles.
"I love you, Daniel. I'm so happy and proud to be your wife!"

Jessica wraps her arms around him and they share a passionate kiss in front of the sunset. Jessica didn't even care about her dress getting wet at this point. She just wanted to feel his lips on hers.

Meanwhile at the hotel.

"No I not gonna do that!" Grayson nods.

"Come on, Gray. Mom said you need to take a bath." James says.

"No she say to me that I play toys!"

"No she didn't, you little liar!" Sam shouts.

"I no like baths! Only mommy gives me baths, not you!"

"Grayson, if you take a bath then I'll read you a story to sleep." Zachary says.

"I no need that!"

Caroline laughs and James says, "Oh and what are you laughing at? Think you could do better?"

"Well better than what you guys are doing!" She says as Grayson runs around the room screaming for no reason at all.

"Okay, little missy. You try!"

"Alright, I will!" Caroline stands up from the couch and James takes her place.

"Grayson! Guess what!"

"What!" He stops and listens to her with wide and excited eyes.

"I just got off the phone with Santa Claus!"

"What?! He weally on the phone!"

"Yeah! He said he's gonna bring you so many toys when Christmas comes!"

"Oh wow!"

"Yeah but only if you let me give you a bath right now this second!"

"Okay!  Okay! I gonna get toys! I gonna get toys!" He says running to the bathroom.

Caroline giggles at his cuteness and follows him, giving the rest of the boys a cheeky smile.

"How the hell did she do that?" Michael asks.

"I don't know, but I need a nap." Sam says throwing himself on the couch.

"Sam, we need ice." James tells him.

"Well call the people!"

"Why bother them when there's an ice machine down the hall?"

"Okay. Why are you telling me?"

"Go get the damn ice!"

"Why can't you go?"

"Because I'm going to go check on Caroline and you're not doing anything!"

Sam rolls his eyes and snatches the bucket from him.
"Give it to me!" He grinds his teeth.

Sam walks down the hall and gets the ice. When he turns around he sees a familiar face.

*Gasp* "Hi!" He stares in shock.

"Hi! Sam, right?" The girl smiles.

"Yeah! Samantha? What are you doing here?"

*Giggles* "My family and I our vacationing here."

"I didn't know you were gonna be here! Are you busy?"

"Um.." Samantha looks over her shoulder, then back to Sam and smiles.
"No. No, I'm not busy." She nods.

"Wanna go out?"

"Sure! Were you in the middle of something?" She asks looking at the bucket full of ice he's about to leave.

"Hm? Oh no, that's fine. Let's just go."

**

"What do you mean he left for ice and never came back? Did you call him?!" Jessica says in a loud voice.

"I did, but he left his phone.  I looked all over the hotel and couldn't find him." James says to Jessica.

"Oh my gosh! Daniel, what if something happened to my baby!"

"Honey, it's okay. I'll go out and look for him."

"It's already midnight, why would he sneak off and stay out so late alone? Something's wrong!" Jessica cries.

"I'm gonna find him, I'm sure everything's fine." Danny tries calming her down.

Suddenly the door flies open and in a loud and slurry voice Sam says, "I got the ice, but it's soooo liquidity!" He shakes it making water go everywhere.

"Samuel Rodger Shepard! What on earth is wrong with you? Jessica walks over to him.

"Oh no, it's mom! Be cool, guys!
.. Hi mommy!" He smiles and tries hugging her.

"Get away from me! You wreak, Samuel!" Jessica pushes him away.

"Hey that's not nice!" He pouts.

"Where did you go and why are you so drunk?! You're on a family vacation, have some respect!"

"Mom.. I'm listening, but could you stop moving around so much!" Sam grabs his head in one hand and Jessica's arm in the other.

Jessica rolls her eyes and Danny steps in.
"Sam, why don't you come sit on the couch.

He helps him over and Sam plops his body on the couch.

"Why did you leave when I asked you and your brothers to watch Grayson?" Jessica asks.

"I found the girl and we went out.."

"What girl?"

Sam smiles and closes his eyes.
"Samantha... She is a fine piece of ass, let me tell you!" He looks at them and chuckles.

"That's enough, Samuel! Go to bed!"

"Fine!" He stands up and stumbles towards the door.

"No, not in your room, you will stay here tonight. You're too drunk and I'm not letting you go and disrupt your younger brothers."

"Mom, you're really over reacting!"

"The hell I am! Samuel, I am your mother and if I don't like something then I have a right to tell you! I don't like seeing you like this and I do not want to see it again!  Do you understand me?"

Sam stays quiet and Jessica grabs his chin in her hand.

"DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME!"

"Yes!"

"Yes what?"

"Yes ma'am."

"Thank you! Now get out of those close and get to bed. Everyone go to bed and stay there!" She shouts walking in to check on Grayson.

**

Caroline was in the bed with him and got up when she saw Jessica.

"Thank you for your help, honey.  Go on and get some rest." Jessica gives her a hug.

"No problem.  See you in the morning."

Jessica softly touches Grayson's hair and kisses his forehead.

"My sweet little angel.. Mommy missed you!"

Grayson makes cute little faces in his sleep making Jessica giggle quietly.

"Don't ever grow up, little one."
