If you're not careful, it could happen again. Zoe blushed, having not expected that sort of comment to come from Darrin. "I'll remember that," she said, quiet so the children wouldn't hear them. Careful around him was impossible for her. He made her happy and excited, vulnerable and confused, but she never thought to be careful. It wasn't like with other people, were she was constantly trying to protect herself and not let anyone in, she wanted him to challenge and test her, to bother her until she was forced to let him in. Even from the beginning she hadn't been careful, as he probably recalled that first day. Sort of ironic now.

Hearing his suggestion of going outside to play, Zooey smiled. "That's a wonderful idea," she said, watching the man for a moment. He seemed to be up to something, but she let it go. If he chose to tell her what he was planning on doing, he would. If not, well it probably wasn't important. Though it was a... negative thought, she only hoped that he wasn't planning on going upstairs and taking anything... or drinking anything. It made her nervous, but she was already on her way out the door with Zaira and Zeke. The little girl seemed to be dragging her brother, who was still trying to get his feet correctly underneath him. Laughing, she dismissed the thoughts about Darrin and bent down to pull Zeke up and chase them the rest of the way outside.

Zeke was having lots of fun playing with his sister and Zooey. Though he still felt a little bad about being mean to her, and had tried to apologize again. She had quickly stopped him though, saying that everything was okay and her and Daddy talked about it. This made him happy, since that had to mean that Zooey wanted to stay, or else she might have already left. It also thrilled him to know that his Daddy actually did what he had asked him to do, he wasn't sure if he would. No wonder he still looked so happy, and Zoe sat next to him now, maybe they really were happy!

Soon Zooey went to rest though, which left just him and his sister. He stared at her for a moment before running off in the opposite direction, yelling out that he already washed the cooties off from this morning and didn't need anymore of them. He wasn't sure why girls were so gross, but they were. It was like a law among him and the few friends he had had back in California. Now he only had his sister, but he didn't mind that much either.

Zoe nodded in respond to Judith's question. "I think so," it probably should have felt awkward, talking to Darrin's mother about something like this, but she didn't mind it at all. When she noticed Judith getting ready to leave a bit later, she called the kids over and brought them inside, telling them to go wash their hands for dinner and then they were getting a bath afterwards.

Returning her hug, Zoe tried not to blush at the thought of meeting the other band members. She had already screwed up with one of them, okay, two if you counted Darrin. And she wasn't exactly sure how the others would take her to since... well Damion had been... well, she would see. Lastly she was worried about how she was supposed to act with Darrin, but she figured he would do something about it if he wanted too. "I think I'm just taking the kids out for ice cream, and then we're going to come back here and I'll probably make lunch for them or something," she laughed lightly at the thought of making lunch for them. If even one made a comment about woman and kitchens though... "Unless you think maybe Mr. Reed," she was talking about Darrin's father. "Would want to see his grandchildren? I could always drop them off..." alright, she was pathetic. But she also didn't want the children to come home and see anyone with black-eyes or bloody noses.
