Marcus, Christina, Braden, June And Dinner With The Feders

June sat in her room. After Keithie was released from the hospital, Jackson went with Keithie and their parents back to their house and June went back home and has been in her room ever since.

Christina tried talking to her when she came in but she ignored her and went straight to her room and has been there since.

There was a knock on the door, "who is it?" June called "Me." Christina stuck her head in, "I don't want to talk to you." June told her

"I know. But I really want to be here know you." Christina smiled, "Well I don't want you here." June told her.

"Look I get that you're angry with me...I'd be angry with me too." Christina said softly twiddling her fingers nervously, "So then you understand why I don't want you in my life or dad's life." June raised her eyebrows

Christina nodded, "Yes I do..." June cut her off, "So leave."

Christina sigh softly, "June come on. I know I made mistakes with you and your dad but I'm here now."

"You've had 18 freaking years to be here! But you weren't. You left. You left me. You left dad. And you had another baby and you didn't even tell dad that he had a son. You're selfish! You left cause you didn't want to be here. You don't get to have kids and then abandon them." June looked at her

"June..." Christina started but June cut her off again, "You are not a good mother. Not to me. And you don't get to act like I have to let you in because you just decided to come back after all these years."

June walked passed her out of the room. Marcus and Braden, "Hey sweetheart, come here. Watch this. It's squirrels waterskiing." He laughed, "No, thanks dad, I'm going to the Feders." June told him softly and slide her shoes on and grabbed her car keys

"Is everything okay?" Marcus asked pausing the video. Christina walked out of her room and into the living room. Marcus looked between them, June glanced at Christina, "Yeah. And I'll probably eat dinner with them too." June told him

Marcus nodded, "Alright. Be carful driving okay?" June nodded and left

Christina sigh, "She hates me." She looked at Marcus, "Give her time. She's kind of a tough one. She's not gonna make it easy on you." Marcus tells her and grab her hand softly.

"I can't believe her." June groaned to Jackson, "I thought you said you were gonna try to give her a chance."

"I did." June nodded, "Really? Cause it sounds like you went off on her almost immediately." Jackson looked at her "I did." June repeated

Jackson looked at her confused, "Look, I tried. I did. I really did. I got home and I had it in my head that I would hear her out. That I'd give her a chance but then I walked in and I saw her and the only thing I could think about was how she hurt my dad, left us and then had my brother and never called to tell us or anything."

Jackson looked at her, "I mean a girl needs her mom growing up. And I didn't have that." June said as a tear fell, "come here. Come here." Jackson said softly and pulled her over to him and sat her on his leg and rubber her back.

"It's okay. Let stop talking about it okay?" Jackson whispered. She nodded and sniffled, "I love you." He said wiping her tears

June nodded and smiled a little, "I don't want to go back there tonight." She told him, "okay. That's okay. You can stay here tonight. You don't have to go back."

The Feders plus June were sitting at the dinner table. Keithie had his foot up on the table, "Okay, everybody." Lenny said gathering their attention, "It wasn't a perfect day. For any of us." He glanced at June.

Jackson had explained to him and Roxanne what had happened before dinner.  "There was some downs. I admit it." He looked at Keithie, "sorry about the leg."

Lenny looked at Keithie, Greg, and Becky, "The good news is the children got though another year of school. Fabulously." He then turned to June and Jackson, "June and Jackson, made it out of high school without any drug or Alcohol problems, or any babies. Thank god for that." He then glanced between all the kids, "you all got older, even though I told you not to. Especially you." He pointed again Becky.

Becky smiled, "stay young. Don't leave me." Lenny looked at Roxanne, "you prepared us your famous chicken a la food poisoning which we're all excited to eat." Lenny joked. Roxanne smiled and playfully pulled at piece of bread off and threw it at him.

"But the greatest thing is, it's my favourite part of the day with my five... you know what six best friends. June is part of this family too. To the Feders!" Lenny said, June smiled at him

They all started eating except for Greg, "Homeboy, why aren't you eating?" Lenny looked at Greg

"Uh, I saw something today that made me lose my appetite." Lenny chuckled a little "What was it, me naked?"

Greg's eyes widen in almost horror, Lenny looked at him confused, "What?"

"Lenny, how was your day today?" Roxanne asked changing the topic just as confused as Lenny was, "It was good. Lamonsoff taught me how to do a burpsnart."

"I'm sorry, a what?" June asked him, "A burpsnart." Lenny said

June looked at Jackson for an explanation but he shrugged nod knowing it was either, "Burpsnorp?" Roxanne asked

"A burpsnart!" Lenny said "A burp a sneeze and a fart!" He explained

"June are you coming to the bash tomorrow night?" Roxanne asked once again changing the topic to something more normal for dinner, "Yeah, I figured if I didn't come willingly, Jack would've ended up dragging me here himself."

"I was thinking it might be fun to have a theme, no?" Roxanne asked, "what's the theme?" Jackson asked "The 80s."

"The 80s?" Keithie asked "yes. The 80s. It would be fun." Roxanne nodded

"We can match costumes." June smiled at Jackson, "Do I have a say in the matter?" Jackson asked, "nope." Jane shook her head

Jackson chuckled softly, "Greg maybe you should ask Nancy Arbuckle to come by for the get-together? Or do you prefer the imaginary shower version?" Keithie teased him.

Greg reached over and grabbed his broken foot and slammed it down in the table. Keithie let out a scream of pain.
