"So, is Nick coming home for Christmas??" Angelina asked while browsing through some shirts for Leslie and Angel.

"Yeah, he gets in tomorrow. I think that some of the guys are coming with him too."

"What about Abby?"

"Who cares?"

"I don't want her around my child."

"Don't worry. We'll keep her away from Bries." Bj said using her nickname for Brian.

"Should I get Nick anything?"

"If you want, I can't garantee that he'll get you something. But it'd be a nice gesture and it might break some of the tension."

"OK, I'll get him something that he wants...but what?"

"Cool. I'll show you some things that he really wants." They finished their shopping and went back to the house.

"Shhh, you guys be quiet." Nick whispered to Brian and Aj as they entered the house.

"I'm going to bed. Aj, you get the guestroom by my room and Brian, you can have the guestroom next to Bj's room."

"OK, see ya tomorrow man." They whispered and headed up towards their rooms. When Brian entered his, he took off his shoes, jacket and pants and climbed into the bed. He rolled over only to find someone else sleeping there.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Angelina screamed when she noticed someone else in her bed. Brian clamped his hands over her mouth

"Shh, it's me."

"Brian?"

"Angelina?"

"BRIAN!" She squealed. "I'm so happy to see you. It's been forever."

"Yeah, me, Aj, and Nick just got in."

"Oh, so Nick's here?"

"Yeah." Just then the door opened.

"What's going on in here? I try to get some sleep and I wake up to a scream." He rubbed his eyes. Brian finally woke up and started howling.

"Nick!" Angelina hissed

"Angelina?"

"Yeah."

"What are you doing here?"

"Well, I've been here the past two weeks and this is my room."

"Oh sorry I didn't know that it was occupied. I wouldn't have sent Brian in here if I knew."

"It's ok." Angelina got out of bed and picked up Brian from the playpen. The door once again opened

"Look Brian, I know you're tired but what's with the screaming and crying?" A very out of it looking Aj came into the room rubbing his eyes. Angelina laughed

"Hey Aj." He quickly sobered up

"Angel?? Hey!! Long time no see!"

"Yeah, well Nick over here woke up Brian."

"Nice one Nick."

"How was I supposed to know she was in here??"

"I dunno." The door opened again and in came Bj.

"Ang, what's wrong with Bries?" She looked around

"Nicky??"

"Hey Beej."

"You're home!!"

"Yeah." She ran over and gave him a hug. Then she walked towards Angelina

"Let me have him." She held her arms out

"No, give him to me, he hasn't seen his uncle Bri in a long time!"

"No, he hasn't seen his uncle Aj in a long time!"

"No, He hasn't seen his father in a long time." They all started fighting over who got to hold Brian. Angelina just sat there and laughed

"What's so funny Ang?" Bj asked.

"You guys. All fighting over who gets to hold the baby." They still didn't find that to be amusing.

"Can I hold him?" The guys all groaned and Bj let out an exasperated sigh "After all, he is my son."

"Fine. But he goes to Uncle Bri next."

"NO! Uncle Aj."

"No uncle Bri."

"No he goes to the only real aunt, auntie Bj." Bj, Brian, and Aj all started fighting over who got to hold him next while Nick walked over towards Angelina and took the baby from her arms. He started rocking him back to sleep and then everyone stopped fighting and looked over at Nick.

"Awwwww." They cooed

"Oh shut up." He smiled at them and then continued rocking Brian.

"Hey Nick, it's moments like these that wish you could bring him with you on tour aren't they?" Aj asked

"Yeah they are."

"Why don't you come on tour with us??" Brian asked

"No."

"Why not?"

"Because I'd be introduding and I have my job."

"No, you wouldn't be introduding and as for your job, you could take pictures of us and send them back."

"No, I'm not going to go."

"Well, will you at least think about it?? I'd really like to see my son more." Nick finally commented on what they were talking about.

"I'll think about it but I'm not going to garuntee anything."

"Nick, when'd you guys get here??" Jane asked the next morning when everyone came downstairs.

"Last night."

"Yeah and Brian scared the crap out of me."

"Well, it wasn't my fault. Nick decided to send me to the guestroom that Angel was using and I kind of scared her."

"Which woke me up." Aj added

"And me!" Bj piped up

"Well Nick, always have to make a scene when you come home huh?"

"Yep."

"So are you two the only ones coming?"

"Yeah Kevin and Howie didn't want to fly anymore."

"Abby's going to come in a couple of days." Everyone at the table groaned

"What?" Nick asked.

"Does she have to come?"

"Yea Aaron, I invited her. Plus, I want my girlfriend with me on Christmas."

"I don't mind her being here..."

"See, Angel doesn't mind!"

"That is, only if she stays away from my baby."

"He's mine too."

"Yeah, well, I don't want her near him! Last time she verbally insulted me and you didn't do anything about it. I do not want that girl near my child!"

"Why not?? If you actually had a boyfriend, I'd let him near Brian! Why can't Abby be near him??"

"I am NOT fighting about this with you Nick especially not in front of everyone else! She is not going near my child and that's final. I don't give a fuck if she's your girlfriend! She's a bitch and I don't want her touching, looking at, or anywhere within ten feet of Brian!" Angelina stormed up the stairs

"WELL, THATS GOING TO BE KIND OF HARD IF SHE'S STAYING IN THE GUESTROOM NEXT TO YOURS!!"

"GIVE HER A DIFFERENT ROOM!" Angelina screamed and slammed the door to her room making Brian wake up and start crying.

"Dammit!" She picked Brian up and tried rocking him back to sleep. Back downstairs everyone was staring at Nick.

"What!" He snapped.

"Nothing, I'm going to go check on Angel. At least some of us care about her!" Aaron yelled and ran upstairs

"I'm going with him." Bj, Angel, and Leslie all said at the same time.

"Me too." Brian and Aj quickly followed everyone else."So, is Nick coming home for Christmas??" Angelina asked while browsing through some shirts for Leslie and Angel.

"Yeah, he gets in tomorrow. I think that some of the guys are coming with him too."
