I decided to try to see if there is any interest in this section of FanFiction anymore. I've lurked mostly in the Kingdom Hearts section, but I decided to expand my horizons. I decided to write this as if it were a 7th Heaven reunion special, set in the present day. Enjoy.

The once loud, crowded Camden house is now quiet, at least by Camden standards. Much like the rest of this small California town. The days of "do these shoes match my sweater," "why do I have to share a room," and I've been waiting for the bathroom forever" were pretty much over with. The mighty Camden clan of Nine's numbers had been reduced down to four, at least for the ones still living in the house all seven kids grew up in. A lot had changed over the years. Though most of the kids had moved out, began a career, and had families of their own, some things always remained the same: they were still always under the spotlight, and they always would be. Life as a "PK" was never the easiest considering every move the Camden kids made was watched. Even though this was true, there was always love in their tight family unit, and whether they liked it or not, they were never alone.

To fully understand the life of these PKs, one must understand each of the Camdens. They are as followed:

Eric: Father. Reverend Camden has been the minister of the Glen Oak Community Church for well over three decades, and is thus a well known figure throughout the community. After surviving a heart scare several years ago, life had seemed normal for awhile. His life is turned upside-down, however, when two sudden tragedies occur. How does he help his loved ones cope when he still is mourning inside at the same time?

Annie: Mother. After spending many years staying at home raising her seven kids, she has spent the last several years running the Hastings Home for Teenage Mothers. There are still plenty of challenges at homes, however, with a pair of two twin teenage boys still living at home, both with very different personalities. On top of that, Annie has become worried about her husband due to the fact that he still is trying to hide the pain in his heart following the death of his sister. Will she ever be able to break through the wall he has put up?

Matt: Age 33, Oldest of 7 kids. After his year of rounds in New York, both he and his wife, Sarah, move back to Glen Oak and open their own practice, Camden and Glass practices, both working as OBGYNs. They both have 7 year old twin boys, Nicholas and Joseph, and a 4 year old son, Isaac, who has Down's Syndrome. How do both parents balance busy careers with the difficulty of raising a special needs child?

Mary: Age 31, 2nd of 7 kids. Mary's life can be described as a roller coaster at best. After several years of making poor choices beginning with her senior year of high school, including trashing the school gym, underage drinking and driving, and leaving her later husband, Carlos, and first born child (only to later come back), Mary was able to turn her life around once she finally decided to settle down and continue her education. After beginning her career in Buffalo, Mary and her family have recently returned to New York after Carlos sought a new career opportunity. She is now a high school gym teacher and basketball coach at the same school she graduated from. She has a 9 year old son, Charlie, 7 year old twin girls, Carly and Brianna, and a one year old girl named Haleigh. Still, the shadows of Mary's past sometimes haunt her. Will she ever be able to forgive herself?

Lucy: Age 30, 3rd of 7 kids. Though she was once offered a position as a lead minister in a different town, she ultimately decided to continue serving as associate pastor at the church she grew up in along side her father. After her children reached school age, her husband, Kevin, decided to return to the police force he once worked for, denying the opportunity to work as a sheriff in Crossroads and electing to stay in Glen Oak instead. Lucy currently has two children: Savannah, age 8, and Madilyn, age 6. After several years of trying to get pregnant again and failing, she has finally succeeded and once again is pregnant. With twins. The last time she was pregnant with twins, however, she tragically lost them at 25 weeks. Will she be able to get over her fear of not being able to carry her twins full term?

Simon: Age 27, 4th of 7 kids. The best way to describe Simon's young life is tragic. At age 17, he killed a kid on his bicycle in a car accident (though this was through no fault of his own). It took him years to get over the demons that haunted him following the accident. At age 20, Simon was engaged to another woman, though they ended up breaking up on their wedding day. Not even one year after this, he met another young woman named Amanda at school and fell deeply in love. Only a few months after meeting, the couple wed in a small, intimate ceremony. Two years later, the two had a son, Adam. Tragedy hit, however, when Amanda was involved in a two vehicle car accident only one year after their son's birth. She was killed upon impact. Devastated, Simon was forced into being a single dad. How will Simon balance his life as a family attorney, a single father to his four-year old son, and seeking council to help his pain inside? Will he ever forgive the person that Amanda was involved with in the crash?

Ruthie: Age 23, 5th of 7 kids. Having quick whit and a dry sense of humor, Ruthie graduated high school one year early and was thus able to graduate college early as well. She is now working as a nurse at the Glen Oak Hospital. Though she has "moved out," she is never far away. She now rents the apartment above her parent's garage. Having not been very boy crazy since high school, Ruthie's life is turned upside down when someone from her past suddenly enters her life once more. Will Ruthie open up to the person that once broke her heart?

Sam: Age 14, 6th of 7 kids. A twin, Sam's biggest worries include football, basketball, baseball, and girls. Though once close to his twin brother, there has been a noticeable tension between them for awhile now. Will he ever be close to his brother again?

David: Age 14, 7th of 7 kids. A twin, David's biggest worries include glee club and getting the lead in the school play. Though once close to his twin brother, there has been a noticeable tension between them for awhile now. Will he ever be close to his brother again?

Life has never been simple for the Camden clan. One could argue that their challenges greatly exceeded the challenges most 'normal' families experienced. Still, the love in this family is strong, and it would never tear this family apart. It always gave each member comfort during their most difficult times. Even during the hard times, a light was always shining within the heart of this family.

It was like living in 7th Heaven.
