Zach smiled a little bit." Don't worry about it.. I don't normally just bring plates out to the table so really you were right." He answered looking at the younger man.

Lucas nodded and tousled Isaiah's hair playfully as he passed him. He put back the plates then went back to he dining room. Lucas sat on one side of Isaiah, leaving the head of the table for Zach.
Isaiah smiled and watched his dad a little bit then giggled as Lucas passed him," daddy we have wooke come all time?" He askedZach smiled a little as he sat down at the table," you would have to ask Lucas." He said softly," he comes over to watch you everyday though."
Isaiah looked at Lucas." You come stay wif us?" He asked
Zach's eyes widened a little bit at Isaiah's question not knowing it was going that way
Lucas stared at Isaiah for a moment. He had no idea how to answer that question. "Umm.." he mumbled, looking at Zach for help. Lucas had a feeling Isaiah would be upset if he said no but what else would he say? He rubbed the back of his neck.
Zach spoke up first." Saiah Lucas has his own house that he lives at.. And though it would make things easier if he lived closer he needs to have time with his own friends." He tried to explain to his son.Isaiah shook his head," No daddy he stay wif us.. Den I pay wif him all time." He stated.
Zach shook his head a little," I know you want to play with him all the time."
Lucas chewed on his lip. Speaking of friends, he was going to have to leave soon. He didn't know what to say to the little boy. "I can't stay, buddy. I gotta live in my house for a long time." he said, trying to somewhat explain leases to him. He was only six months into his two year apartment lease.
Isaiah shook his head not understanding and starting to cry a little," no you stay wif me" he told him. Zach frowned a little bit," Saiah don't cry buddy." He said softly reaching to pick him up and set him in his lap," Lucas won't leave you."
Lucas leaned over to be somewhat on eye level with Isaiah. "I'm staying for a little longer, buddy. Don't worry." he said softly. "And I'll be back tomorrow." Lucas told him, smiling a little at him.
Isaiah sniffled a little bit and nodded reaching for Lucas now. "Otay and you stay a wong time den?" He asked Zach let Lucas take the small boy from him as he got up to clean up the table and let Lucas deal with Isaiah for a little bit.
Lucas took Isaiah and settled him in his lap so Isaiah was facing him. "Maybe I can stay longer but I have to go home everyday. But you know I come back everyday, buddy." he said, looking down at the little boy. Lucas then started to think about the picture Isaiah had drawn and given to him. Did that have something to do with it?
Isaiah nodded a little bit," otay." He said softly looking up at Lucas with big blue eyes. "But but I wanna have you watch a mooie wif me and daddy." He said Zach walked back into the dining room," tomorrow you can watch a movie Saiah."
Lucas smiled softly at the little boy and hugged him. He checked the time and looked down at Isaiah. "I've got to go, little man." he said softly, standing up and placing Isaiah on the floor. Lucas tousled Isaiah's hair then grabbed his things.
Isaiah frowned a little bit," otay." He said softly not really wanting him to leave yet. Zach reached down and picked the boy up then looked at Lucas," thank you for watching him and I'll see you tomorrow... Just text me if your boss keeps you later tomorrow." He said
Lucas nodded. "Alright. I'll see you later." he said to Zach then smiled at Isaiah. "I'll see you tomorrow, bud." Lucas said to him then left the house, getting in his car and driving to his friend's house.
Zach smiled a little bit and walked him to the door with Isaiah in his arms. Isaiah nodded a little bit," otay bye bye." He said waving
((Can you post on our other one? Spent the night at a friends with no WiFi.What do we do now?))
((Yeah I will and I'm not really that sure maybe.... I don't know))
((Umm. What if we... Maybe something happens to Zach so Lucas becomes a temporary stay-in babysitter or something?))
((Ohhh that sounds like a good idea but what should happen to him?))
((Umm. Maybe a car crash but not like a near death thing.. How about one of his legs broke like in multiple places and he's not supposed to walk of anything?))
Lucas drove over to the local hospital to go see Isaiah. Someone had called him about Zach and said that Zach wanted him to go over to be with Isaiah. Lucas parked in the hospital parking lot and went inside. He asked for directions for Zach's room. He walked into the room and stood in the doorway.
Zach was laying in a hospital bed with Isaiah in the bed next to him. He had just picked him up from the small preschool he went to every other day. He didn't see the car that hit him until too late. Isaiah was fine just very shaken up with a few bruises but Zach wasn't as lucky and had managed to break his left leg in three places. He looked up at Lucas as he stood in the door way," hey.... Thanks for coming on such short notice."
Lucas nodded and shoved his hands in his pockets. "No problem, man. I understand." he then looked at Isaiah. "How are you both?" Lucas asked softly, sitting down in a chair nearby. He laced his fingers in his lap.
Zach shrugged," well Isaiah is fine just scared to death..." He replied looking down at his now sleeping son. He looked back over at Lucas. "Umm would you happen to be able to stay with Saiah for a while.. I can't be on my feet for a while."
Lucas didn't hesitate to say yes. "Of course. I'll stay for however long you need, Zach." he answered, nodding. Lucas knew he would have to temporarily quit his job to stay with Isaiah but he would do it for him.
Zach nodded slightly," thank you so much. I'll pay you more.. And I don't know how this will effect your other job but when I can get around again I'll help you get another one if you still need it." He offered
"I'll cross that bridge when I get there." Lucas said, running a hand through his hair. He was assuming that Zach wanted him to take Isaiah to their place and stay there. Isaiah would probably be more comfortable at his home anyway. ((I had a mini idea to go along with this. What if when Lucas is staying with him, Isaiah accidentally calls him Daddy?))
"Are you sure?" He asked," seriously I'll help you with whatever you need help with Lucas." He told the other man. Zach was just very grateful that Lucas was willing to help him out with Isaiah. " also would you be able to stay at our place?" He asked ((I was just thinking that too.))
((Great minds think alike, Tink. :))Lucas smiled at Zach. "Yeah, that's fine. When is he supposed to go home?" he asked, sitting back in his chair and watching Isaiah. He seemed a little pale and had a few bruises but the was to be expected.
((That's is very true)) Zach sighed softly," umm he is supposed to go home tomorrow."
He answered. " great everything should be fine when you get to my house.. Umm you may have to come back in a few days and pick me up if you don't mind."'
Lucas nodded. "Alright. I'm gonna have to go home and pack a duffel then." he said, playing with his lip ring for a moment. "No, that's fine. You can't drive like that." Lucas said, scratching his jaw lightly.
"It's fine just take your time Isaiah probably won't be in a vet good mood for a few days." He said softly watching Lucas in a thoughtful kind of way. "Ohh yeah and I don't exactly have a car anymore."
Lucas nodded in agreement. "That's right. So it was totaled?" he asked, meeting Zach's gaze. He rubbed a hand over his mouth in an effort to hide a smile. He had no idea if Zach was trying to be funny about his car but e found it funny. Probably wrongly so.
Zach nodded a little bit,"'yup but it gives me an excuse to get a new car." He replied grinning a little bit. "What? Did I say something funny?" He asked looking at Lucas
Lucas cleared his throat and tried to keep a straight face but was failing miserably. "Nope." he said simply, faking laughter as a cough. He didn't know why it was so funny to him but it was.
Zach watched him in amusement," oh really then why are you laughing?"'he asked not at all upset by it
"Laughing? I'm not laughing." Lucas said, feigning innocence as he managed to pull a straight face. Lucas then broke out in a smile, laughing softly.
Zach chuckled a little," ohh sure then what is that?" He asked pointing at his face
Lucas shrugged. "A smile. Duh." he said, raising a brow at him. Lucas never thought he'd be able to talk and banter like this with his boss. He really hadn't.
Zach chuckled softly," Alright fine then don't tell me." He replied shaken his head a little bit. He didn't think that he would be able to have a conversation with anyone the way he was with Lucas just now
Lucas grinned and sighed. "I hope nothing long lasting happens to you." he said, sobering a bit. He pressed his knuckles against his legs and cracked them rapidly.
Zach nodded a little," Yeah me too. The doctors were saying I should be fine as long as I'm good and stay off if."
Lucas nodded slowly. "That's not gonna be fun." he stated. Lucas was silent for a moment then looked back over at Zach. "Do you need anything?"
Zach nodded," Yeah you are telling me.. I have an active three year old and they want me to do nothing for the good part of two months." He muttered then shook his head," no I'm alright."
"He'll probably just sit with you all day. Or try to, at least." Lucas said then looked at the time. He needed to go home and pack a bag and clean out his fridge. He wasn't gonna let everything rot. "Okay. I'm gonna go home. Get some stuff down." he said.
Zach chuckled softly and nodded," You are right about that one." He replied then looked at him," alright. Thank you for what you are willing to do."
Lucas stood then shook his head. "It's no problem. I'll see you tomorrow." he said, rapping his knuckles against the doorway before walking through and out of the room. ((Skip?))
