After graduation their family met them outside.

Isla ran to her mother with a huge smile on her face. "MOMMY!  MOMMY! OH MY GOSH YOU GRADUATED!"

"I did, baby!" Jessica picks her up.

Isla places her little hands on Jessica's face and she says, "Mommy, I am so proud of you."

"Aw my princess." Jessica cries. "That means everything to me, Isla.  Everything I do is for you."

"Aw thank you, mommy!" She says cutely. "Are you proud of yourself?  Because you should be!"

"I am, sweetie.  I really am."

"Good!  Can I have your phone?"

"Why?" Jessica laughs. "I don't have my phone with me."

"Danny, can I have your phone?  Please!"

"Sure." Danny chuckles.

"Thank you!  Let me stand please!" She wiggles and Jessica puts her down.

Isla then slides open Danny's camera and stands back with a big beautiful smile on her face.

"Smile Mommy!"

"Aw!" Jessica giggles.

"I want a picture of you in your big graduation outfit, and I want you to put it in my room!"

"Aww!" Catherine and Zoe melt.

"Isla is the sweetest little baby!" Catherine says.

Isla then goes on to take Danny's picture as well. "Danny, your mommy can put this on her refrigerator."

Danny chuckles softly. "That's a great idea, Poops!"

"Yeah!  Now get with mommy!"

"I'd love to." Danny smiles to Jessica.

Jessica laughs and the two hug. "We can put this in our house if we ever get one."

Jessica laughs once again and looks at Danny.

"We'll get on that, Isla." He says.

"Isla why don't you get in the picture?" Catherine says.

"Yeah!  Then just me and mommy cause we're best friends!"

"Aww!  That's so sweet!  Sometimes I think she likes Danny more!" Jessica says to her mother.

"Sometimes I do."

"Oh alright!" Jessica laughs.

"But you're my mommy and you're always gonna be number one!"

"Thank you my love!   You're Always my number one."

Isla giggles and wraps her arms around Jessica. "Thanks." She then looks to Danny and says, "That means you're mommy's number two!"

"I'm number two. . . Thanks."

Jessica couldn't help but laugh.

Graduation Party.

Jessica wanted to have fun.  She wanted to celebrate, but she felt so sad inside.  She didn't want things to change.

Danny and Isla were able to make her smile and laugh, so she did enjoy herself, but immediately after the sadness returned.

Once the family returned home, Sarah broke the news to her parents.

"No Sarah."

"And why?  Why are you going to clip my wings and make me stay here against my will?"

Jessica scoffs and rolls her eyes. "And they call me dramatic."

"What if you and Sam break up?"

"Well then I'll stay there until I'm finished.  I'm not gonna just run away.  But I know Sam and I aren't going to break up.  Mom, I've been in a relationship before and I thought I was in love. . with Sam. . I know I am and I know this is real.  You support Danny and Jess, why can't you support me?"

Catherine sighs.

"Sarah you haven't given us a bunch of reasons to trust you." Doug says.

"But dad, can't you see that I've changed?  That's all because of Sam.  He is my therapy.  I don't know what I'll do without him.  It's like I need him to survive."

"You don't." Catherine says.

"I know that.  But I love him and I want to do this.  Please.  I'm an adult and I have to try to be out on my own.  If it's a mistake then let me make my own mistake.  I promise I'll be good and I promise to study and make something of myself."

Catherine looks to Doug. "Your father and I will talk about it."

Sarah smiles. "Thank you!" She then hugs her parents tightly.

They did speak about this decision.  They prayed about this decision.  Then they decided it would be good for Sarah to get a taste of the real world.  Sarah and Sam will be moving to Oklahoma at the beginning of August.

Jessica felt heartbroken but she held it in as best as she could.

Something she had to look forward to was Disney World.  Their parents all planned a big family vacation to Florida for the beginning of July.

Sam will be joining as well.

Isla was thrilled.  She's at that fun age where she's tall enough to ride a few of the 'Big Kid' rides. Isla didn't quite understand the big changes happening soon.  She knew everyone started school soon, but her little five year old self didn't fully grasp the idea.

**

Disney- July 4th.

"It's so hot!"

"I know you are." Danny stared at Jessica with a smirk.

Jessica laughs and hugs him tightly.

Danny kisses her neck and Jessica pulls away laughing. "Daniel, I'm sweaty!"

"I know and I'm about to lose my mind."

Jessica smiles and says, "After we get Isla to bed tonight. . we should both get in the shower."

"Yeah. . I mean since we're both so. ."

"Dirty." Jessica gives him a look.

"Our parents rock for giving us our own room!"

Jessica giggles. "They do.  I'm sorry you have to share it with Isla though."

"Why would you be sorry about that?  She's my little buddy!"

Jessica smiles. "She's so excited about it."

"Aw. . Little Poop."

Jessica laughs and kisses his lips.

**

Later that evening.

"And then!  I road on the magical ride!  The MOST magical ride in the whole universe!"

"Yeah baby!  We were there with you!" Jessica chuckles. "All day long!"

"Yeah!  Danny member when we got on the teacups and you almost throwed up?"

Danny makes a face and grabs his stomach. "I do remember that."

"That was silly!  And So Gross!"

"Okay baby girl.  It's night night time.  We have another super fun and magical day planned tomorrow, so we all need some sleepy time."

"You're right, mommy."

Jessica kisses her forehead and tucks her in.

"I need a Danny kiss too!"

"I'm coming, I'm coming!" Danny kisses her.

**

"She's asleep." Jessica whispers and smirks at Danny.

"Shower time?" Danny smiles.

Jessica giggles and takes off to the restroom.

The two undress quickly.

"Damn you're so hot." Danny says.

Jessica laughs and grabs Danny, kissing him intensely.

"Hey!" Danny pulls away breathlessly.

"What!"

"Why don't we just have sex?"

"Excuse me?" Jessica chuckles.

"You wanna marry me one day, right?"

"Yes."

"Well let's just do it.  I can't control myself anymore, Jessica!"

"Well you're gonna have to." Jessica says with a giggle. "No sex until you put a ring on my finger."

"Will my class ring do?" Danny asks desperately.

"Daniel!"

"It won't?"

"Nope." She smiles cutely.

"Ooookaaaayyyy."

Jessica laughs and says, "You can still do the other stuff.  That's still fun and there's no chance we could make a baby this way!"

"Ah yes. Okay, you win!"

Jessica giggles. "Now can we please stop talking and use our mouths for better things?"

Danny smirks. "My pleasure."

**

Danny and Jessica held onto each other breathlessly.  The hot water dripping down their naked bodies.

"I love you so fucking much."

"I love you too, Danny."

"I'm sorry about before.  It's just getting so hard not to go all the way with you."

"I know Danny, I'm sorry.  Believe me I'm struggling too.  But I want our first time to be so special.  I want to save that last bit for the most beautiful day of our lives."

"Most beautiful day. . . It will be beautiful, but it'll be hard to top the day Isla was born."

"Aw Danny!" Jessica smiles lovingly into his eyes.

"But I understand and I agree.  It will be fantastic."

"I love you, Houston."

"I love you too, Lange."

***

The next day.

"Danny, you really don't have to wear this.  You played dress up with her, you don't have to do all this."

"No, no, no.  My girl wants me to dress up as Prince Charming when she dresses as Cinderella, that is exactly what my little Poop is gonna get."

Jessica pouts as her heart melts. "You're incredible."

"Yeah maybe so." Danny says cutely as he inches closer to her lips.

Jessica giggles and says, "We're still waiting for marriage!"

"That's not why I'm doing this you dork." He says making her laugh harder.  Their lips then touch and they quickly get lost in their kiss.

Suddenly they hear Isla clear her throat. "Excuse me!  I am ready to show my Prince how beautiful I am!"

"Oh yes!" Jessica smiles and breaks away from Danny.

Danny turns to her and smiles.  Jessica saw so much love in his eyes for this little girl.

"Hello my handsome Prince!" Isla smiles.

"Wow!  I'm gonna cry."

"Aww!" Jessica pouts while Isla giggles.

"Isla my love.  You look so so beautiful."

"Thank you, Danny!" Isla walked towards him and Danny kneeled down.

"My Cinderella."

Isla giggled, grabbed his face, and gave him a big kiss.

"Mauh!  I love you."

"I love you so much more, kiddo."

Isla giggles. "Thank you for dressing up with me, Danny."

"Don't thank me.  I love this!  Let's go have another fun day!"

"YEAH!"

Danny picks her up and they take off out of the room.

"Hey!" Jessica grabs her backpack. "Can I come too?" She says trying to catch up to the two of them. "Wait for me!!"
