Reba Nell Hart Morgan walked around her Houston home, picking up toys and clothes and putting them into a basket as she did, when she felt two arms wrap around her.
"Will you stop that?" Reba's brunette husband said, pulling her closer to her.
Reba smiled and wanted to stay in his arms all day. "I can't. The kids will be home from school at any minute."
Jack sighed. "They're fourteen, five, and two, I don't think they would care if the house is clean."
"There's also five of them!" Reba said, hoping he would let her go.
"So?" Jack said, bending his head down and started kissing Reba's neck, knowing she couldn't pass up his kiss.
"Jack," Reba told him, arching her head back on to his shoulder.
Just then the kitchen door flew open and Barbra Jean stepped in. "REBA!"
For once, Reba was happy that Barbra Jean walked. She wiggled out of Jack's grasp and walked into the kitchen. "What Barbra Jean?"
"Brock has lost his mind 'AGAIN!'" Barbra Jean said sitting down at kitchen table.
"What do you mean again?" Reba asked, putting the basket on one of the stools and sitting down next to her best friend.
"Wait for it," Barbra Jean said before the front door opened and a oddly orange person came in.
Reba stared at her ex husband before cracking up laughing.
"What?" Brock asked them as Jack and himself walked into the kitchen.
Reba just stared at him, laughing.
"It's not funny! It's disgusting!" Barbra Jean screamed.
"It's kinda funny," Reba said, still laughing, as the phone rang. "Brock, go put a long sleeve shirt!" She said picking up the phone. "Hello?"
"Can I come home?" Melinda voice called through the phone.
"For the billionth time this month! No!" Reba told off her step-daughter.
"Please!" Melinda begged on the other end of the phone.
Reba rolled her eyes, knowing she would just call again later that night and everyday. "Fine."
"Thank you, thank you, thank you!" Melinda said through the phone before hanging it up.
Reba sighed, ready for the house to be full again. She hung up the phone as Brock and Barbra Jean left and ten feet walked through the front door.
"Mom! Dad! We're Home!" Kella called through the house, not knowing where the couple would be. Over the past five years, Kella had become really close with her step-mother, even to the point where she would call her 'mom'.
Reba ran into the living room and picked up her two year old daughter, Amy, and holding her on her hip. "How was school?" She asked the four sets of lake blue eyes staring at her.
"Good," Emma said, before hiking up the steps with her siblings.
Jack walked into the living room. "Hey Cutie," He said, holding Amy's hand.
About three years ago, Reba had found out that she was was pregnant. When she did, she was heartbroken. Both Reba and Jack had decided not to have any more children. They were gonna give her up for adoption, but when Amy was born they couldn't bear to part with her.
"DADDY!" The two year old said, reaching for Jack.
He took the toddler out of her mother's arms when they heard a voice come from upstairs.
"KAROL!" They heard Hunter yell.
"Karol! Hunter! Down Here Now!" Reba called up the stairs.
The black haired little girl came bouncing down stairs with her red headed brother. "Yes Mommy?" They asked like nothing was wrong.
"Oh my gosh Hunter what happened to you?" Reba asked, picking up her son.
Hunter's red hair was covered in, what looked like, chocolate. "Karol put her melted chocolate on my head."
"KAROL LYNN!" Jack scolded his daughter.
Karol started crying. "I'm sorry!"
"It's okay, sweetie," Reba said before kissing the top of her head and walking upstairs with Hunter.
Karol looked at her father. "Am I in trouble?"
"No, just don't do it again!" Jack told her, walking upstairs with Amy in his arms.
Karol started up the stairs, following her father, before she fell backwards, being knocked unconscious
A half an hour later, Reba walked down the stairs to see her daughter passed out on the floor. She ran down the stairs before picking up her unconscious daughter. "Karol? Karol? KAROL!" She yelled, shaking her daughter after laying her on the couch.
After hearing Reba's screams, Jack and Kella ran down the stairs. "What Happened?" Jack asked his wife.
"I think she fell down the stairs," Reba said.
"I'll go get the other kids," Kella said, starting up the stairs and returned with Amy in her arms and Emma and Hunter right behind her.
Jack and Reba got the kids into their van and drove to the hospital. An hour passed by, Amy had fallen asleep on Reba's lap and Emma feel asleep on Kella's, before the doctor walked out.
"Mrs. and Dr. Morgan?" Dr. Haven said, walking up to the family.
"Yes?" Reba said, looking up at the doctor.
"You're daughter.........."
