Chapter 7
When it came time to clean up Tim and Harold Sr. offered to do the dishes.”Aj I had no idea you were so domestic.” Kevin said smiling. “There a lot you don't know about me.” Aj says smirking. “Oh yeah like what?” Kevin ask. “Like I can reroute my bodily functions at random.” Aj says “You can not.” Nick says looking over at Aj. “Yeah, I can.”Aj says smiling. “Don't you dare prove it Alexander.” Denise says sternly. “But mom.” Aj whines. “Hey there's only room for one whiner in the group and the position is filled permanently.” Nick says jokingly. “Can we go to the park?” Baylee ask. “Not today baby you're daddy's still kind of sick and we don't want him to be out in the air it'll just make him sicker.” Aj says gently to Baylee. “Why don't you and the guys take him to the zoo or something he shouldn't have to be stuck in the house because I'm hurt.” Brian says. “The zoo's not the same without you Frick.” Nick says looking at Brain. “We could always mummify him.” Marcus says from the front door. “Marcus!” Baylee says running full steam towards the towering man. “Hey Bay, aren't you suppose to be at school?” Marcus asked picking the boy up. “Daddy Aj and daddy said I could stay home for a few days.” Baylee says. “I see, well someone woke me up this morning begging to come home so I brought him.” Marcus says producing Tyke from behind his back. “Tyke!” Brian says running over to the dog. Tyke yelped happily at his daddy. “Did you have fun at uncle Marcus' house?” Brian asks. “What's this about mummifying my son?” Harold asked. “We wrap him up so he doesn't get too much air and he can safely go outside. I've done it with Bone plenty of times so I know how.” Marcus says. “Why have you done it with him is the question.” Kevin asked. “He just has ok now are we doing this or are you going to interrogate my bodyguard?” Aj says moving past everyone and going upstairs. Brian looks at Kevin. “Nice, Kev.” He says following Aj. Brian pushes the door open. “Babe?” Brian says softly. “I'm in here.” Aj calls from the closet. Brian walks over and into the closet. “Alex he didn't mean anything by that he was just kidding around I'm sure.” Brian says reaching out for Aj. “Do you even know?” Aj ask looking at Brian. “Know what baby?” “He's good at covering me up because he's done it a million times, think about it why do you think there was only that one picture of me drunk or stoned. I made him the master of cover up because I was always stoned or drunk.” Aj says tears streaming down his face. There's a knock on the bedroom door. “Skinny don't make me come in there and retrieve you.” Marcus says. “I'll be out in a sec Marcus.” Aj says from the closet. “That's too long.” Marcus says before opening the closet door and pulling a shocked Aj out. “You've put on some weight boy.” “Well eating everyday tends to do that to you.” Aj says trying to get away from his long time friend. “We have to mummify Frick if we're going to the zoo or out in public.” Marcus says. “Did I ever thank you for keeping me safe?” Aj asks wiping his face. “Yes, every time I opened my paycheck.” Marcus says smiling. “I mean really thank you?” Aj says looking serious. “No thanks necessary, you're my boy I'd do it for free but since you insist on paying me it would be rude not to take the money. Now let's get to dressing, Nick's down there whipping Baylee into a frenzy about all the cool stuff they're going to do and they're whispering too and you know nothing good can come of a whispering Nick.” Marcus says as he looks through the closet trying to find something to dress Brian in so they can go out and not risk his health.
The family start getting ready for a day at the amusement park. “Bay, you remember the rules about addressing me in public right?” Aj asks. “Yes sir, you're my uncle Aj in front of everybody else and my daddy at home.” Baylee says. “Good so are you ready to go?” Brian asks. “Yeah!” Baylee says excitedly. “Viggo do you need protecting as well?” Marcus ask. “If you do I can always call in the re enforcements.” Marcus said. “I should be good my fans aren't as crazy as backstreet fans.” Viggo says. “Hey our fans are not crazy they're... a little help guys.” Howie says looking at the rest of the guys. “They're devoted.” Aj says. “Yeah right skinny, a devoted fan ripped your ear up huh.” Marcus says looking at Aj. “Ok that girl was crazy but the rest are just very devoted to the best male harmony group in the world.” Aj says smiling at Marcus. “Only a nut would defend a nut.” Marcus said pushing Aj a little. “Um me and Baylee are gonna go in my car.” Nick says innocently. “No corrupting my son Kaos.” Aj says. “Me corrupt someone never.” Nick says with his famous Carter smile. “I can see your horns Nicky.” Kevin says. “I don't see any horns.” Baylee says. “They're invisible like uncle Kevin's stick.” Brian says. “Watch it Bri, I may not be able to hurt you but I can hurt him.” Kevin says pointing at Aj. “Everybody get in a car now before I change my mind and go home.” Marcus says. “Please Marcus you wouldn't leave me unprotected if I paid you too.” Aj says walking towards the door. “That's not the point.” Marcus says pushing Aj out the door. Kevin gets in the drivers seat since he knows where they're going. Nick, Baylee and Gerald get in Nick's car and head in a different direction . “Where are they going?” Jackie ask noticing they are not following Kevin. “Kev stop at the party store please.” Brian says. “Why?” Kevin asks looking at Brian in rearview mirror. “If you don't we won't have any way of fighting back.” Brian says. “He's not going to pull anything.” Howie says shaking his head. “Damn it we're going to be sitting ducks for whatever they pull.” Brian says huffing and crossing his arms. “Brian Thomas!” Jackie says loudly. “Baylee's not in the car.” Brian says. “I don't care you watch you mouth.” Jackie says. Everyone laughs. “He's right Kev just let us at least get some silly string.” Aj pleads. Kevin ignore them and soon they arrive at the amusement park. “Marcus get out and make sure it's clear for us to get out.” Brian says. “He's not going to do anything in public guys.” Howie says. “I know my frack he doesn't care about being in public if he wants to start something he will.” As they exit the cars Nick, Baylee and Gerald come running up to them with silly string and shaving cream. “I TOLD YOU!” Brian says as Baylee sprays him. “
