It had been four years since Dylan’s first birthday. She would be five in a few weeks, and she was excited.
“Come on!” she pulled up Sunnie from where she was sitting on the floor quietly coloring.
“Where?” Sunnie said, setting her crayons down carefully.
“Come on!” was all she said and tugged her arm again. She led the way down the hall and into the garage that had been remodeled and soundproofed.
“No.” Sunnie said quietly. She knew they weren’t supposed to be in there.
“Shh.” Dylan sat just inside the door.
“Dylan, what are you doing?”
She stood guiltily, “I just wanted to watch you play.”
“You know you aren’t supposed to come in here without permission.” Ville set his guitar down and walked across the room to scoop up the child. He saw Sunnie trying to hide behind an amplifier and picked her up too, “Hello Sunnie. How are you?”
“Daddy, will you play for us?” Dylan wrapped her arms around his neck and snuggled up to him.
“Of course love.” He could never say no to her. He set her down and picked up an acoustic guitar, “What would you like to hear?”
“Beautiful!” she clapped and sat down on the rug. Sunnie quietly sat beside her.
“Just one look into your eyes. One look and I cried, cuz you’re so beautiful,” he began, accompanying himself on the guitar as he got into the song winking at her, “Just one kiss and I’m alive, one kiss and I’m ready to die, cuz you’re so beautiful.”
Dylan giggled and blushed. She loved to watch her daddy perform.
Sari stood in the doorway and watched Ville sing for her daughter. She loved the both of them so much it hurt. Smiling, she clapped when he came to the end of the song, “Alright, why don’t we go inside now and have some lunch?”
“That sounds good.” Ville racked the guitar and picked up the children, “How about you lovelies?”
“What’s for lunch?” Dylan asked dubiously.
“Snails and dirt.” Sari replied, making a face, “And you have to eat all of it!” she tickled her.
“No Mommy! No!” Dylan shrieked with laughter.
Ville set the girls down by the table and pulled out their chairs, “Mademoiselles.” He bowed.
Sunnie grinned and took a seat at the table, secretly relived when she saw peanut butter and jelly sandwiches on the plates, “Thank you.” She said solemnly before digging in.
The girls chattered animatedly as they ate. Sari and Ville joined the conversation, eating their own sandwiches.
“Mommy, can we be excused please?” Dylan asked, finishing her glass of milk.
“Okay. Please go pick up you room.” Sari said with a smile. Dylan always made her smile, even when she was naughty.
Dylan and Sunnie ran off to Dylan’s room, already making up the rules for a new game they were going to play.
“They make me tired.” Ville said, sagging exaggeratedly in his chair.
“Tell me about it. She’s just excited that you’re back.” She rested her head on his shoulder, “I am too.”
“I’m glad to be back. I miss you guys when I’m on the road.” He put an arm around her.
“Hello?” Charlie called through the screen, “Anybody home?”
“It’s open.” Sari called.
Charlie stepped in, “Hi Ville.”
“Hello.” He got up to clear the table.
“What’s up?” Sari asked.
“Not much. What’s up with you?” Charlie flopped on the couch and stretched out her legs next to the coffee table.
“About the same.” She sat next to her friend.
“Where’s the kid?”
As if summoned, Dylan ran into the living room, stopping when she spotted her Auntie Charlie, “Auntie!” she launched herself into her.
Charlie caught her and hugged her tight, “Hi Doll-Face.” She spotted Sunnie peeking out from the hall and stood, exchanging children so she could swing Sunnie around in a circle, “Hello gorgeous.” She set the giggling child down, “What kind of trouble are you getting into?”
“None Aunt Charlie!” Sunnie exclaimed a little too quickly.
Sari lifted an eyebrow at them, “Really?”
Dylan grinned her sweetest grin and went to tug on Charlie’s hand, “Come play with us!”
Charlie rolled her eyes, “Now why would why I want to play with a couple of small fries like you?”
“Because you love us?” Sunnie tugged on her other hand.
Charlie grinned at Sari, “I guess I’ll talk to you in a minute.”
Sari yelped when Ville spun her around and kissed her soundly, “It’s entirely too hard to do that when Dylan’s around.”
She laughed at him and rested her head against his chest, “Yeah, but you love her.”
“I do.” He held her away from him, “Would you let me adopt her?”
Her eyes popped open, “What?”
“Marry me and let me adopt her.” He said patently.
“Why would you want that?” she seemed to have stopped breathing and reminded herself that it was a good idea.
“Because I love you both more than I have ever loved any two people in the whole world.” He dug in his pocket and pulled out a little diamond ring, “Marry me darling.”
She gasped in another breath, “Alright.”
He grinned at her, and slipped the ring on, “Don’t sound too excited now. I might think you actually love me.”
She looked down at the ring and back up at him before wrapping her arms around his neck and kissing him, “I do love you. Let’s go tell Dylan!” she dragged him toward her baby’s room, stopping short at the sight of her daughter, Sunnie and Charlie covered in glitter, running out of the room. The three of them stopped short, “What the hell happened?” she glared at Charlie.
“It wasn’t my fault!” the oldest child declared, “The twerps started it! And I was on my way to come get you.”
Dylan looked around trying to think of a way to explain why it had been absolutely necessary to start throwing glitter.
“Well?” Sari placed a hand on her hip.
“It was an accident.” She said sheepishly.
“Was not!” Sunnie shouted, extremely upset that she was covered in the shiny stuff, “You threw it on purpose!”
“Why-” Sari began but was cut off by Charlie, who seized her left hand.
“You’re getting married?!” she yelled and hugged her, covering her in glitter so she matched the girls.
“Yeah.” Ville said, stepping prudently back. To no avail as Dylan launched herself into his arms, coating him as well.
“Does this mean that you’re going to be my real daddy now since you’re going to marry Mommy?”
“If that’s alright with you.” He looked in her eyes.
She snuggled against him, “its ok with me. I love you.”
He was almost brought to tears by her unconditional acceptance.

“Do I have to tell Mike?” Sari asked Charlie as they were sitting in the back patio smoking while Ville put Dylan to bed.
“I don’t know.” Charlie admitted, still picking off glitter.
“Is there any law that says I have too since he doesn’t even have visitation rights?” she hit her cigarette.
“Probably. Just look it up. That’s what the interwebs are for.” Charlie shrugged, looking up when Ville came outside to join them, pulling over a chair, “Doll-Face sleeping?”
“Yes.” He lit a cigarette.
“Well congratulations.” Charlie said, smiling at him, “And I’m just going to renew my threat to unman you if you hurt either of my girls.”
He smiled back at her, “Right. Thanks and I’ll be sure to remember that.”

Getting married! What the fuck did that bitch think she was doing?
Mike threw the phone against the wall, curled closer in on himself and took another hit of dope. It had been four years since his Sari had started seeing that damned Finnish rocker. At least he remembered where he’d recognized the guy from. A huge poster of him that hung in Charlie’s house, back when he’d been welcome there.
And now she was going to marry him?
He was pissed. It never once occurred to him that he wasn’t the best father for Dylan. He was a criminal, tweaker, lying, cheating, thieving bastard who was in and out of jail all the time. All he knew was that when he’d been with Sari, he’d had the easiest time of his life. She had given him money for things, which he ultimately spent on dope, a place to stay when he finally fell out, and food to eat when he wasn’t too high to be hungry.
The only unpleasantness had been that bitch Charlie. She was always telling Sari that she should kick him out and that she deserved better.
He looked around with intense focus at the room around him. A thousand wires and bits and pieces of plastic, buttons, CDs, and laundry littered the floor. His bitch was going to have to be on a good one to clean this mess up. Not that she ever cleaned. Sari used to clean.
He loved her. Why wasn’t that good enough? Why couldn’t she see that it was all Charlie’s fault? None of this would have happened.

“Are you serious?” Sari was sitting in her backyard with Cari and Charlie. Ville had taken Sunnie and Dylan to the park for a little bit so the three friends were taking the opportunity to catch up on gossip.
Cari had just told her Mike’s reaction to the news.
“How the fuck did he even find out?” Charlie lit a cigarette.
Cari stubbed hers out in the guitar shaped Vega ash tray, “I told my sister, she told Dawn, Dawn told him.” She shrugged, “So apparently he hit the roof and went on a good one about how he was going to kill Ville and Charlie and you and take Dylan. He beat the shit out of his girlfriend.”
Sari sighed, “Fuck, how long do you think until he calls?”
“Sundown.” Cari and Charlie said smirking at each other.
“Because you refuse to change your damned phone number.” Charlie put in.
Sari flipped her off and blew smoke at her, “Because it’s my damned phone number! Why should I have to change it?”
“Because then he’d stop calling.”
“He only calls like twice a year.”
“That’s twice too much.” Cari mumbled.
“You have no room to talk with your Mr. Frank Franklin.” Sari retorted, watching with growing dread as the sun disappeared behind her house. She stared off at the vague glimmers of the few houses on Mt. Baldy and sighed when her cell phone rang. Seeing no other choice, she opened it, “Hello.”
“Hi. What are you doing?” Mike’s voice was sweet and he sounded like he had when he and Sari were first dating and everything was ok.
Sari didn’t trust is tone one bit. She lit another cigarette, “I’m hanging out with Cari and Charlie.”
“Oh.” She could almost hear him grind his teeth at the mention of their names. He didn’t like Cari either, although not nearly on the same level he hated Charlie.
Charlie grinned, knowing what Mike’s reaction was anytime her name was mentioned.
“What do you want?” Sari just wanted to get the conversation over with, but for some reason she could never bring herself to hang up on him.
“I heard you’re going to marry that guy.”
“Yeah.”
“Why?”
She snorted, “What the fuck do you care?”
“Leave her alone and go smoke another bowl!” Cari called out.
Charlie giggled and Sari tried hard not to.
“Tell that whore this isn’t any of her fucking business!” Mike yelled.
‘Ah, now this is the Mike I know and hate.’ Sari thought to herself before saying, “It’s none of your business either.”
“But I love you. I want to be a family.”
“It has been five years. I have my family, and you are not part of it.”
He whined, playing the only card he had that had ever made Sari feel guilty, “But Dylan needs her father.”
“She’s got a father.” Sari said coldly.
Ville popped his head out the door to tell the women that the children were sleeping, but stopped short at the look on all three faces. He eased the door shut and lit his own cigarette, wondering why they were being so quiet.
“That guy isn’t her father! I’m her father!” Mike yelled, “I’m going to come over there and take her from you.”
Wrong thing to say. Sari went from feeling vaguely sorry to being pissed, “Try it you asshole and I will rip off your fucking head and spit down your neck stump!”
Ville’s eyes popped open at that, and he looked to Charlie and Cari, who were barely containing laughter.
“I’m not kidding. If you come anywhere near me or my daughter, I am going to call the cops and have them take your ass to jail. If you violate the restraining order one more time, you’re going to stay there for once!” she heard nothing and checked the display. As usual, he had hung up, “Hello.” She said when she noticed Ville.
Ville had heard much of Mike, but he’s never actually been present for any interaction between him and Sari. He had in fact never seen that side of Sari, but he was impressed, "Hello. I think I missed something."
"Just Mike being crazy. Nothing new." she got up and went to sit in his lap.
