"Great, the bitch is back." They walked upstairs with fake smiles plasted on their faces. The rest of the family, minus Angelina and Brian who had pretty much kept to their room to avoid Nick, were all in the front hall with fake smiles on their faces too.

"Abby, how are you?" Jane asked trying to be nice

"Great. What's that smell?? Oh wait, probably the brat's diapers huh??" She started laughing while everyone else winced knowing she was talking about Brian.

"Where's my room?"

"Follow me m'lady."

"Oh Nicky, I love it when you talk french!" The rest of the family all stifled a laugh at her stupidity and followed Nick and Abby to the guestroom next to Angelina's. Almost as if sensing something was wrong, Brian started crying.

"Nicky, I have to be next to the baby??"

"Yeah I'm sorry it's the only room left."

"But that child will be crying all night and I need my beauty sleep."

"I'm sorry baby."

"Well, I guess I can deal with sleeping next to the slut and brat." Everyone once again winced, but Aaron had had enough.

"SHUT UP!"

"What did you say?" She glared at Aaron

"You heard me, I said SHUT UP, or are you too stupid to figure that one out?"

"Nickypoo, you're not going to let him talk to me like that are you??"

"No, I'm sorry I don't know what's gotten into him. AARON APOLOGISE!"

"NO!"

"What did you say?"

"I SAID NO I WILL NOT!" Nick started getting mad while everyone else watched with amused faces at the scene taking place in front of them.

"AARON!"

"I'M NOT GOING TO SIT HERE AND LISTEN TO THIS BITCH INSULT ANGELINA AND BRIAN!! SOME FATHER YOU ARE, DON'T EVEN STAND UP FOR YOUR SON! I DON'T WANT TO BE LIKE YOU NICK IF IT MEANS BEING A BASTARD TO YOUR OWN SON AND GOING OUT WITH A BITCH LIKE HER!" Aaron ran to his room and slammed the door. Nick was shocked, his brother had never yelled at him or cussed him out. The rest of the family all walked away, satisfied that Nick got what he deserved.

"Man, I wish I could have seen his face!! Give me five AC." Aaron smiled and gave Angelina a high five.

"So where are they?" Aaron asked

"They went out to dinner. If we're lucky, she'll ditch him for someone else." The family was all around the dinner table eating. Angelina had finally brought Brian out of the room because Nick wasn't there.

The front door opened and Nick and Abby walked into the hall kissing. "Where's your family?"

"I don't know. Maybe they left."

"Ohhhh. Let's go up to your room."

"Anything you want babe." Nick picked Abby up and carried her to his room.

"Great, they're gonna fuck again."

"Not in my house they aren't!" Jane screeched and ran towards the stairs. The rest of the family followed anticipating what would happen next.

"I'm getting the camera!" Leslie ran and grabbed the camera and followed the rest of them. Jane pounded on Nick's door.

"What?" Came a muffled cry and then a moan from the room. The 'kids' all started laughing.

"What the hell are you doing in there Nickolas Gene Carter?"

"Playing Nintendo?"

"I don't think so mister! I'm coming in!"

"No, dammit mom don't!"

"I can do whatever I want and I'm coming in!" Jane opened the door and they all peered in to see Abby and Nick with their shirts off, and Abby sucking on Nick's stomach while working her way down to his pants. Everyone but Bob and Jane burst out laughing. Leslie held the camera firmly even though it was hard to tape all this while she was laughing so hard.

"Why'd you bring all of them mom?"

"They followed. We'd personally all enjoy it if you and Abby would fuck somewhere else, not in MY house!"

"This is my room!"

"Well, it's my house! You're only visiting dammit Nick and while you're here, I can still very well ground you!" The laughing had died down now to some snickers that were heard occasionally.

"Mom, I'm 19!"

"Yeah? Well, act like it!" Then she turned around and left followed by everyone else. When they got down stairs they burst out laughing once again, this time Bob and Jane laughed too.

"Man, that was so hysterical!"

"And I got it all on tape." Leslie smirked and turned the camera off. This sent them into more hysterics.

"Merry Christmas everyone." Angelina smiled coming downstairs. This was the first time she had come down while Nick was home except for the Abby and Nick thing.

"Oh...It's Brian's first Christmas!" Bj smield

"It is not! I'm almost 25!"

"You dork! She meant the baby." Aj smacked Brian over the head and he laughed

"I knew that."

"Sure ya did Rok."

"Where's Nick?"

"Who cares? Him and Abby came in late last night."

"Aaron, I know that we all aren't very happy with your brother right now but it's Christmas and we need to be nice to him right now."

"Fine, but I don't have to be nice to Abby do I?"

"Well, at least try to.." They all groaned and Jane continued

"Unless she acts like a total bitch ok?" They giggled and then started sorting out presents.

"OK, you guys got me and Brian way too many presents!"

"Nonsense, you're part of the family now and you get the same amount of presents as everyone else."

"But it's too much."

"Angel, stop complaining, a bunch of presents...come on, heaven!" Angelina laughed at Angel and then finally sighed in agreement.

"Good, so who wants to go first?"

"ME!" Everyone yelled.

"Ok, let's do youngest to oldest."

"Fine."

"Brian goes first."

"Oh thanks Jane."

"You're so stupid sometimes Brian." Bj scolded him and he laughed. Angelina grabbed one of the many presents in his pile and read the tag

"This is from Brian." She opened it to find a mini basketball jersey with some nike shoes and a small basketball.

"Awww, how cute." Everyone cooed.

"I figured we'd need another basketball player in this house."

"Thank you Brian. I'm sure you'll make him wear it a lot right?"

"Damn right girl!"

"My turn!" Aaron screamed

"Nu uh, its my turn."

"No Angel, it's MY turn!"

"We're the same age!"

"No, you're a minute or something older than me."

"Fine." Aaron smiled and grabbed a present and opened it to find a new video game.

"Yes! I wanted this one!"

"Is Angel really a minute older than you?" Angelina asked

"How should I know? I just wanted to go first!" Everyone laughed

"You little twerp."

"So?"

"This is Brian's last one. It's from Aj." Angelina opened it up and inside was a hair dying

kit, a tiny wig, temporary tattoos, some little tommy jeans, and a leopard cowboy hat. Angelina smirked

"You said you wouldn't do anything to my son Aj."

"And I'm not. I just bought it for him so when he's ready he can dye his hair and get some tattoos. The wig is just in case his hair falls out. I figure he'll start that at about two because he'll want to be like his uncle Aj." Everyone laughed.

"My kid is not dying his hair Aj." Nick and Abby walked down the stairs and everyone stopped laughing.

"Well, look who finally decided to grace us with his presence." Bj muttered to Angelina.

"Sorry we're late. Slept in."

"Yeah, well, I'm done. I'm gonna go upstairs." Angelina said picking up Brian and trying, but failing, to grab all their presents.

"Let me help you Angel." Brian and Aj volunteered and they got all the stuff up to Angelina's room. Once she was settled and had dressed Brian into his new jersey that Brian said he had to wear, Brian and Aj went back downstairs because Nick still hadn't opened his presents.

"Thanks Beej." Nick said while opening his last present.

"Sure, didn't know what you wanted but I got it for you." He smiled. Just then Angelina walked into the room carrying Brian and a small gift.

"I'm going out with Jon tonight and I'm going to take Brian with me. So don't wait up or anything. Thanks so much for the presents and Merry Christmas."

"Sure Angel, have fun." She walked towards Nick and handed him the gift.

He looked surprised. "Um, Brian and I got you this. I didn't know what to get you so I hope you like it. Merry Christmas Nick." She smiled at him and then walked out the door.

"Well, open it." Bj said excited. She had helped Angelina and she wanted to see what Nick would say. He slowly opened the gift to reveal a small box. He opened the box and pulled out a gold chain with a pendant on it. Inscribed on the back of the pendant was 'Anyone can be a father, but it takes someone special to be a Daddy.' On the front was a picture of Brian that Angelina had taken a month after he was born. Nick smiled and put the chain on.

"Oh how cute, now you have him on your neck at all times." Abby snottily remarked. Everyone was so interested in what Angelina had given to Nick that they had forgotten she was there.

"Why are you like that?" Brian asked

"Like what?"

"Why do you hate the kid so much?"

"Because he was a mistake. That slut never should have had him, she should have gotten an abortion at least." Everyone was quiet. They wanted to hear what Nick would do. But he didn't do anything. He just sat there with his hand playing with the chain.

"I still can't believe you Nick!" Brian yelled, Nick looked over, shocked

"What?"

"She-" he pointed to Abby "is dissing your son and the mother of your son and even though Angel has done everything she can to befriend you, you do nothing to stop Abby! Do you not even care about Brian?"

"Don't you ever say that! Of course I care about my son!! I love him, he's my son."

"Well, maybe you should start acting like a father." Brian snapped and walked out the room soon followed by everyone else who went to help out in the kitchen.

"Hmph! Well, at least we're alone. So, you're not really going to wear that are you? That kid was a mistake and you know it. Now, when we have a kid you can wear a necklace but not some slut's." She continued on but Nick wasn't listening anymore.

"They're right!"

"Huh?"

"You're a complete and total bitch!"

"WHAT?!?!"

"You heard me. You sit there dissing my son...I can't believe I didn't do anything earlier. I'm so stupid." He stood up and started pacing "Angel tried to be my friend because she's the mother of my son and what do I do? I just stand back while you make fun of her and my son! She didn't even leave her room the past week because of it! I can't believe I did that." He stopped talking to himself and glared at Abby.

"I can't go out with someone like you."

"What are you saying Nick?"

"We're over." He said coldly to her

"No Nicky, we can work this out, come on we love eachother."

"We do not! I thought I did but I hate you!"

"But Nicky, we make love every night!"

"You call that making love?? I just fuck you to get my sexual needs!"

"But Nickypoo, come on, you know you love me."

"No, you're nothing but a stupid slut who is so self absorbed. Only caring about you and making fun of your friends and their brutal breakups. Well Abby, is this brutal enough for you or do you want me to do something to make it brutal?" He snarled

"But I love you!"

"Get out."

"Fine but if you ever need me, you know my number." She walked out the door and Nick slumped down on the couch. He heard some laughter and looked up to see his family all with smiles on their faces and Leslie with the camera in her hand. He laughed

"Shoulda known." He said to himself while they all cheered.
