Jack was spread out on the floor on his back, Poppy sitting on his chest,head pounding from the night before.
He and Scott had decided to go out drinking and god knows how late he had stayed out.
Being the lazy ass he was he decided to crash and Maddie's seeing as Charlie would probably kill him for going out drinking and not inviting him.
Maddie hadn't been to pleased waking up at two in the morning to look after him so she had put him on baby-sitting duty while she was at Mungo's.
She had been under the weather lately and Ian kept nagging her to go see a healer.

Row pushed open the front door, gingerly.
She'd considered knocking, but then decided against it because she couldn't be bothered to wait around on the doorstep.
She'd been looking for Poppy for a while now, Rowan wouldn't wake up so she couldn't ask him, Scott was passed out on the lawn and Ian had disappeared off the face of the planet, so she figured she'd be crashing with Maddie.
God knows she needed to smile right now, and smiling came easier with Poppy around, or so it seemed.
She stopped and stifled a laugh at the sight that greeted her, "Earth to the dead and/or dying?"

Jack tries and fails to lift up his head,"Oh Jebus Cripes," He mumbles trying to sit up but hacing a hard time seeing as Poppy was sitting ontop of him.
"Oi, rugrat, scoot." He laughs slightly, pushing her off and onto the floor.
"JackJack has a head ache.""She grins putting her finger to her lips and making a shushing sound.
"Yeah, it's like someone smacked me with a bludger...again, Scott's not around is he?" He mutters looking around.

"Scott is passed out on the lawn. I kicked him on my way past," She says brightly, then grins at Poppy, "Hey Chickadee, where's my hug?"

"Haha, he's still passed out is he?" Jack chuckles sitting up properly.
"Hiya Aunt Morgan." Poppy grins walking over to her hugging her leg,"JackJack's looking after me 'cos Aunt Maddie's got the flu bug."

"Yeah, he is. You two must have had some night," She laughs.
"Hey," She grins at Poppy, stroking the hair back off her forehead lightly, "Is JackJack looking after you or are you looking after JackJack?" She laughs, "Aunt Maddie's got the flu bug? Then why isn't Uncle Ian looking after her? Disgraceful."

"Oh yeah, lots of drinks," He chuckles.
"Aunt Maddie said I'm looking after JackJack."She grins.
"They hopes it's the flu bug, she's been under the weather and Uncle Ian forced her to go see a healer."

"I could tell," She chuckles slightly, then laughs, "You probably are, sweetheart. I don't think JackJack can look after himself."
"Yeah, Uncle Ian and his nazi ways, one of these days he'll set his secret police on us all," She shakes her head sadly, "But oh well, as long as she's alright."

"Gee, good to know you think so highly of me Row." He laughs, getting up off the floor sitting on the edge of the couch rubbing his temples."Again with the secret police, it's not real I tell you!" He laughs.
"Yeah, she's been laying in bed for two days not eating anything, so he got worried and told her to go see a healer and she said okay which made him worry even more."

"You know I love you," She grins, then laughs, "It is so real! I'm telling you! You are gonna get the surprise of your life when they turn up and butcher you, then who'll be the crazy one, eh?"
Then she frowns slightly, "Oh dear."

"You better," He says jokingly."Er..not me seeing as I'll be all butchered up?" He replies cheekily.
"Yeah, between you and me...she's not looking so good, she's thinner then she was before." He mutters, clasping his hands together.

"And if I don't?" She challenges, then pauses, "Oh yeah, dam-...p. Damp."
She frowns a bit more, "Oh."

"Then I'll set the evil pink bunnies on you." He laughs."It is pretty damp in here isn't it?" He chuckles glancing over at Poppy.
His smile falters slightly,"She's got me worried you know?"

"Oh bring it on," She smirks, sticking her tongue out at him, "Yes, very damp. Cowboy builders," She jokes, grinning.
"Don't worry, she'll be fine. She's Maddie, she's got to be fine."

"I hope they eat your eyes out," Jack laughs, laying on the couch putting his feet on the table.
Poppy scurries over pushing his feet off,"Aunt Maddie said to keep your smelly lummox feet off the coffee table."She grins up at him.
He laughs, pulling her up onto his lap,"I'm going to have a talk with that girl," He chuckles,
"Yeah, she's our Maddie." He grins slightly,"My little Mini-Madds, right PopPop?"He aks clipping her round the chin.

"That is unnecessarily cruel. Did no one ever teach you to be nice to pregnant women? Oh my Bob..." She rolls her eyes, sitting on the opposite end of the couch.
She laughs and reaches over, stroking Poppy's hair lightly, "You are too much like your mother."

"Dang, she pulls the baby card, my sister loves pulling that on me." He sulks slightly,"Fine, I'll call off the pink bunnies if and only if you name it Jack for a boy, and Jackleen for a girl," He laughs grinning slightly.
Poppy grins slightly,"Thank you."
Jack laughs slightly,"Oh the manners on this little one."

She grins innocently at him, "Yes, it's a good card to pull. I do it a lot." Then she laughs, "Alright, I'll strike a deal. If it's a boy, I'll name him Jack. If it's a girl, no way in hell is she being named Jackleen."
"I know, where she got those manners I have no idea. Can't have been from home. Or her idea of manners would be punching people and yelling at them to..." She glances sideways at Poppy before changing what she was about to say, "Please be quiet."

"You evil girl." He laughs, sticking his tongue out at her.
"Oh uber, Jack it is then...er then what's a girl's name that has Jack in it?" He asks pretending to think.
"Jacklynn?"Poppy supplies helpfully.
He grins,"There we go Jacklyyn, good girl PopPop." He grins ruffling her hair.
"Yeah, well manners are over rated. Doesn't learn 'em over here I can tell you that."

"Demon girl, stealthy as a ninja cat, coming at you like a buzzard, like a hawk, fool!" She chuckles.
"Jacklynn? Tempting, but I'm gonna have to pass," She laughs slightly, shaking her head, "Already have a girls name lined up, so Jacklynn will not be."
"Good thinking though, Chickadee. Can outsmart JackJack very well," She grins at her, "What an odd child you are hunn, picked up manners from no where. Besides when you're in the cupboard or up in that tree...then you have no manners what-so-ever. But that's alright, cos it's funny."

"Again with the ninja cats." Jack laughs, running a hand through his hair,"I'm telling ya dollface, your ninja cats can never beat my super roosters."
He snorts with laughter,"And what's wrong with Jacklynn? It's better then Jackleen ain't it?" He grins,"Oh and what name persay do you have lined up? I say it's middle name should be Madeline just to spite my dear baby cousin, god knows she hates her name." He smirks.
"Aunt Maddie says a rock can outsmart Uncle JackJack." Poppy grins sheepishly.
Jack raises an eyebrow,"Oh she did, did she? I'll show her who can outsmart the amazing JackJack! She'll walk the plank for this." He chuckles, striking a super-hero pose.

"And I'm telling you!" She laughs, "You call me dollface once more and I'll rip off your-..." She glances at Poppy and grins sheepishly, "Ninja cats would win anyway."
"Okay, okay, Jacklynn is marginally better than Jackleen but still pretty awful," She chuckles, "That would be a very cruel thing to do to your cousin, I hope you understand that. Although I may consider it," She grins, then her smile softens slightly, "Was gonna name it Erin. After my sister and all."
Then she laughs, "A rock? That's got to sting JackJack. I'm agreeing with Aunt Maddie and Poppy on this once."

"Chicken wing off?" Jack supplies innocently laughing,"Would not, my roosters are able to shoot lasers out their ears!" He laughs.
"You realize Jackleen and Jacklynn are basically the same name? This is the reason I wasn't put into Ravenclaw..well among other reasons of course." He grins sheepishly then smile softly,"Okay, okay. Good name, you've got my blessing."
He gasps dramatically, then clutches a hand to his heart,"I'm hurt Row, really am."
"Well that's what you get for making Aunt Maddie walk the plank when she has the flu bug!"Poppy remarks, crossing her arms over her chest and shaking her head back and forth.

"Yeah, that!" She exclaims, "Yeah, well my ninja cats are...ninja's!"
"Yes, I realised that, I just didn't want to point it out and make you feel stupid," She grins, ruffling his hair, then smiles, "That's good to know. Now, I just need to pluck up the courage to broach the subject to Ian and hopefully it'll have his blessing too."
"You'll recover," She laughs, "Too right, Poppy. You tell him!"

"No! Not my chicken wing!" He laughs,"Ha! My super roosters are better, admit it." He grins.
"Oh well in that case, thanks." He laughs the shoves her off lightly,"Oi, gerroff you." He chuckles,"Pfft. Fine, get the old sourball's blessing."
"I will not, I'll die!"
Poppy gasps slightly,"Oh whoops, sorry PopPop." Jack says quickly remembering she didn't understand figure of speech yet.
She reaches out smacking him lightly on the arm,"Your a bully JackJack, Uncle Ian doesn't like talking about dying, but the other day Uncle Scott says something about Aunt Maddie dying and I got scared and Uncle Ian told Unlce Scott to go away." She says all in one breath."So, you don't get to die either or I'll get sad too."
Jack giving her a reasurring smile and pulls her onto his lap,"Okay PopPop, I promise, I won't die."

"Yeah, your chicken wing. Fear me!" She laughs, "You're super roosters are just lame, JackJack."
She smiles weakly, "Another person that doesn't like him? Feel bad for the poor onion sometimes."
She drops her gaze slightly, mumbling under her breath to finish off Poppy's comment, "But Uncle Ian didn't tell Scott to go away in those words. And then Daddy got mad at him. And then Uncle Ian and Daddy got mad at each other again, like they always are lately."
Then she looks up at him, "Yeah, you better not die," She says seriously, "Or I will bring you back to kill you."

"NOOO!" He cries dramatically, trying to keep a straight face."Your just jealous of my roosters 'cos you know they'd beat your ninja cats anyday."
Jack runs a hand through his hair,"I don't not like him, just that he's cranky a lot, and cranky people make me cranky." He explains.
"And when he gets cranky he says things Aunt Maddie says I'd better not repeat or the lobsters will come and steal my tongue and I don't want that to happen." Poppy adds in.
"Yeah, enough of that," Jack laughs covering her mouth with his hand.
"Yeah, I won't die. Don't worry." He grins slightly.

"Yeah, mister!" She warns, grinning, "Oh please...I refuse to have this argument with you. Ninja cats anyday."
She shrugs, "Yeah, he's cranky a lot. He get's uber stressed about everything. Can't really blame him. Especially after all that with Logan at the moment."
She laughs lightly, "Yeah, well Uncle Ian has a very colourful vocabulary and we know that anything he says when he's drunk and/or angry is not something anyone else should say, don't we chickadee? Aunt Maddie's right. You listen to her."
She grins back, "Well, that's alright then."

"Oi! Don't mister me." He laughs, clipping her lightly round the side of the head,"Pfft. Your refusing to have this conversation 'cos you know you'll lose." He grins.
"Yeah, MJ's been pretty stressed, know she's fainted at work, twice?" He shakes his head,"That girl loves her job too much." He tsks.
"Uncle Nate says Uncle Ian and Aunt Maddie love playing tonsil hockey as well."Poppy smiles innocently.
Jack howls with laughter,"Oh my bob..that's priceless, god I have a new found respect for Nathan."

"Make me," She sticks her tongue out and crawls along the couch a little way to be able to hit him back, which she does, "Er...no way. I just don't want you to have to face the failure of it all!"
She raises her eyebrow, "I think they'd both be generally happy and less stressed if they actually talked to each other about things, but nooooooo, both too stubborn or whatever."
"Ew...Poppy! Please, too much!" She laughs, putting her hands over her ears.
