Some time had passed since Josie had left. Connie and Kendall were sitting on the couch together. Leo and Luna were napping.
Then suddenly it happened. The walls seemed to be twisting and moving around. Connie squeezed Kendall's hand, not wanting to let go. Everything spun around them. Then, it all stopped. The couch was gone. The apartment was gone. They found themselves sitting on a bed in a familiar place.
"My room!" Connie gasped.
They were in her old bedroom, back at her parent's house. It was the same as it had been barring one difference. The bed she and Kendall was sitting on was a wider one. It fit two people. Connie wondered why she had a different bed. Was it meant for both her and Kendall? She looked around her bedroom for further clues. She stood up and walked to her wardrobe. Inside it she found both her clothes and Kendall's. Her theory was confirmed. They both lived here. She was overjoyed that they were were out of that cramped apartment.
For a moment Connie was happy, but then she got worried. Where was Leo and Luna? She had to find them. She had to check if they were alright. She rushed out of the room. She didn't know where to start looking. Though, straight ahead of her she found the answer. Through the door in front of her she could see two cribs next to each other. Moving closer, inside the room, she could see Luna soundly sleeping in one of them and Leo in the other. She looked further around in the room. The room used to be a guest room, but now it seemed to serve a different purpose. There were toys on the floor. The walls had stickers of cute animals. It was completely transformed into a children's room.
She turned around. Kendall had followed her, and he was now warmly looking at the sleeping twins. Connie had a thought. Kendall was probably back to being a high school student. With them living here and her parents covering their expenses, he no longer needs to work at the car dealership. He could finish high school. Money was a massive weight off their shoulder.
For the first time in a long while Connie felt carefree. She lightly stepped towards Kendall. She arched her head upwards and kissed him. A light playful touch, before she leaned back.
"I'll check if Mom or Dad are home." she chirped.
She was about to walk around the house and call for them, but she figured there was an easier method. She pulled up her cellphone and checked her message logs. She discovered her parents were gone on a trip. They wouldn't be home for a couple of days. It was a little bit disappointing. She missed them dearly, but after months of no contact, she guessed she could survive another couple of days.
"They're on vacation." she told Kendall.
They were alone. Connie thought of a thing they could do together. Feeling rejuvenated and free, she wanted to enjoy herself. She didn't have to worry too much about tomorrow. The moment was hers to enjoy, or at least until one of the kids woke up.
She embraced Kendall. "Let's fuck." she whispered into his ear. He smiled at her suggestion. She felt herself getting picked up. He carried her back to the bedroom and carefully placed her down on the bed.
