Stay

"Sidney you packed" he heard, he turned and looked at the bathroom door to see Marc walking out
"Yea" he said with a smile "I cant wait to get home" he added zipping his bag up
"me too. Estelle is getting so big....I feel like every time we leave and I come home I have missed so much" he sighed, Sidney nodded as his 2 children popped into his head until his phone rang
"hello"
"hey Sidney" Mario said on the other line
"hey Mario, hows it going"
"I tried to call Jess, I was gonna see how little guy is feeling today and to tell her the Princess left her penguin at the house yesterday"
"oh" sidney said confused "they came over yesterday" he asked
"well Addison did, Jessica dropped her off on the way to taking Greyson to the doctor" Mario said
"doctor" Sidney asked confused again
"yea...Sidney did Jessica not tell you? She took Greyson to the doctor yesterday, she said he wasnt feeling good. He ended up with a upper respiratory infection" Mario said
"she must have called while I was sleeping last night, had a rough game....went to bed early" he lied, Marc looked at him confused. Jessica had never called to tell him anything. He had called her before bed but she was giving the kids a bath and couldnt talk, she said she would call him back and never did. He ran his hands through his hair and sighed quietly "Mar I gotta run, the bus is here" Sidney said. Marc looked out the hotel window for the bus and turned back to Sidney with a raised eyebrow
"alright safe flight, see you guys this weekend" Mario said
"ya, bye" Sidney said grumpily. He threw his phone on the bed and sat down by his suitcase
"whats going on man" Marc asked
"Jessica took Greyson to the doctor yesterday and didnt tell me"
"is he ok?"
"Mario said its a upper respiratory infection" he said
"dont freak out on her, maybe she just forgot....she has a lot going on at home" Marc said
"yea, im sure" Sidney said picking up his bags "see you down stairs"

"Addison come on in" Jessica called "time to wash up for dinner" she added, Addison jumped off the swing and ran to the door, her 2 year old Alaskan Klee Kai 'Iceburgh' following close behind. Jessica smiled as her daughter ran into her legs
"daddy home yet"
"not yet sweetie but soon, lets try to be quiet though, Greyson is still sleeping" she said, Addison nodded and walked to the bathroom. Jessica watched her as she washed her hands
"all clean" she said, Jessica smiled
"good girl, I made your favorite" she said, Addison giggled
"stir fry...just like daddy"
"you and your daddy both just love chinese food" Jessica said helping Addison stand on the stool in the kitchen
"IM HOME" they heard, Addison looked up at Jessica with a huge smile. Jessica's heart sank but she managed to smile
"DADDY" Addison squealed jumping off the stool
"hi Princess" Sidney said kneeling down to catch his running daughter, he stood up as she held onto him "I missed you so much" he said
"I missed you too daddy" she said not raising her head from his shoulder
"hey" he said walking into the kitchen, Jessica looked up from fixing plates
"hi" she said, she couldnt help but smile at the sight of her husband and her daughter, they always did melt her heart
"how was your week" he asked leaning down to gently kiss her
"it was alright, you hungry"
"yea, smells good" he said putting down Addison. she picked up the princess plate that Jessica had made for her and gently carried it to the table "I missed you" Sidney said leaning on the counter
"we missed you too Sidney" she said, he sighed
"why didnt you tell me about Greyson" he asked, she looked at him
"it slipped my mind" she replied
"slipped your mind? Jess seriously" he asked
"I was just so busy with a screaming baby and a very active daughter and dog" she said "im sorry" she added
"how is he"
"he has to do breathing treatments for 3 more days...he will be ok...his fever is down so thats good" she said, Sidney looked at her, she looked worn out, completely exhausted. "dinner" she said forcing a smile, she handed him his plate and walked towards the table. He made a mental note to talk to her before bed about what was going on between them.
"Yea" he said with a smile "I cant wait to get home" he added zipping his bag up
"me too. Estelle is getting so big....I feel like every time we leave and I come home I have missed so much" he sighed, Sidney nodded as his 2 children popped into his head until his phone rang
