"This is so NOT my problem." Stacy glared at the table full of dirty dishes as she passed and headed into her room. "I need beauty sleep someone else can do the cleaning."
"Ugh... the least she could do is clean up after herself." Penny grumbled heading across the room. "All I wanted was to shower and get to bed at a decent hour but no PRINCESS STACY can't be bothered to do a dish." She stacked the plates and headed to the sink. Unlike her spoiled sister she couldn't just leave a mess for her father to have to clean when he got home. "Tomorrow will be a good day." She reminded herself.

"Honey are you staying tonight?" Ella asked walking into the bathroom.
"No I can't leave the girls alone over night El." He sighed.
"Penny is almost a teenager... wow I can't believe that!" Her eyes went wide.
"Tell me about it." Micah chuckled. "Maybe after tomorrow I'll feel better about staying out all night but tonight just doesn't feel right. Really I should get going now."
"Ok you are probably right." She said biting her lip.
"Don't worry El, you'll be just fine without me." He reassured her.
"I hope you're right."
"Well at least it's clean." Micah sighed as he walked into his mostly quiet house. He knew he had Penny to thank for that since Stacy only ever made messes. He sighed when he noticed the TV was still on the romance channel and rolled his eyes all Stacy ever watched was that crap he was in for trouble when she was a teenager. He clicked off the TV and headed for bed.

Penny stood in front of her cake and eyed the door, any second her Mom would walk though and then she would be able to finally blow out the candles. Almost on Que Ella walked through the door and Penny smiled leaning over her cake and pretending to think of a wish. She didn't actually make a wish however since she knew that she'd get everything she wanted anyway.
A twirl and some sparkles later and she was suddenly standing a lot taller. Instead of grabbing some cake she rushed around the table to cheer Colton on as his birthday was also today. She was very impressed by how well he aged up even though she'd always known he would age well. Unlike Penny however Colton went straight for his cake so she stood quietly waiting for him to finish so she could put the plan she'd had since childhood in place.
The moment he put his plate in the sink she pounced. He was of course shocked at first but when she pulled away he grabbed her and pulled her back to him making her heart flutter. She giggled as they pulled apart and smiled at him. "Don't worry you don't have to ask me I'll be your girlfriend." She told him and he shook his head.
"You know one day I might actually have a question I'll want to ask myself." He teased.
"Don't worry I'll let you." She winked and he shook his head doubting very much that Penny would ever just let anything play out the way it was supposed to.

Micah had reluctantly agree to spend the night at Ella's after the birthday party. It wasn't that he didn't want to spend time with her it was just that she'd never be able to get by without him if she didn't actually try. He smiled at her and kissed her lightly. "Why don't you get some sleep I'll stay up for a bit."
"You sure?" She asked.
"Of course, I've logged plenty of hours." He chuckled and she headed off to bed.
A few minutes later Micah headed in behind her but he wasn't heading to bed. "Well it's just you and me little guy." He sighed down to his sleeping son just as the infant started to wiggle awake.

A/N
Booooo time jump! I had a ton of pictures of Stacy's birthday and stuff before that but... I LOST THEM! :( So I had to resort to skipping ahead which I hate doing but I figured it was better then a picture less chapter or even two. I'm guessing I lost them in the process of trying to fix my lagging, freezing, and crashing issues which have really messed up my other legacy since I've had to purge a ton of my CC. So far I haven't used a ton of CC in this one so it seems to not be messed up too much so YAY!
Anywho this chapter is a hot mess of jumping all over the place but I just had to get something out so I could move the story along. Now that Penny is a teenager it should get more interesting and sort of revolve around her (with a bit of Stacy) since Micah mostly works or skills and that's pretty boring to read about. Of course when he's not doing those things he's sneaking off with Ella and making babies O.o
EXTRAS:
These two give great facial expressions... =)
