'Angel Charm'

   Isaac smiled softly down at the scene displayed before him.
   Angel was asleep, her head resting on Taylor's lap on one end of the couch. Charm was asleep as well, her head in Mackenzie's lap on the other end of the couch, her feet tangling with Angel's in the center.
   "I don't know how it happened." Mackenzie started, "We were all watching the movie on TV and then all of a sudden I heard light snoring."
   Taylor chuckled lightly, careful not to wake up Angel, "Kids do that a lot." He answered quietly. "Jessie, Avery, you and Zoë did it quite often back in the day."
   Getting down on the floor, Isaac rested his back against the front of the couch, and pulled Zoë's head into his lap. She squirmed a little and woke up, but was hushed back to sleep in gentle tones from him. "Back in the day, you all were cute too." He remarked smiling.
   He smirked when received a smack in the back of the head from Mackenzie, but didn't retaliate. Yet instead he remained still, and started to lightly stroke Zoë's soft hair.
   They spent the next twenty minutes in silence, continuing on with the movie and were lightly dropping off themselves when someone interrupted the solitude.
   "Well, all we need now is hot cocoa and a fire." Randy stated cheerfully as she walked carefully into the room, trying to make as little noise as possible.
   Taylor grinned up at her from his spot. "Jealous?" He asked looking down at Angel before returning his gaze to her.
   Randy laughed, "Insanely." She remarked before pecking his lips softly.
   "Nah." Mackenzie broke in. "I think Angel has her eyes set on someone else." He murmured wiggling his eyebrows.
   Isaac perked up from his spot. "And who would that be?" He asked curiously.
   He smiled down at him, "Now would I be a good friend and tell?"
   "If Angel wants a good friend I'll get her a dog." Isaac replied smiling back.
   "Oh," He said laughing, "Just some kid whom she's met through Zoë." He confessed slowly. "I think his name is Justin, Jeremy, Jamie..." His shoulders shrugged, "I know it starts with a 'j'."
   Isaac wrinkled his nose; "You really didn't help none. I need a first name as well as a last."
   Mackenzie shrugged again, "Hey, it was young girl's gossip, I didn't take notes." He defended.
   Isaac shrugged as well, "She's too young to date anyway, so I'm not too worried."
   Taylor started laughing, "And when are they allowed to date again, Ike."
   "Forty-five." He said seriously, his head nodding in conviction.
   Randy burst into a fit of giggles as Taylor and Mackenzie laughed as well.
   Isaac grinned up at them, "Just wait, when you have your kids, and have daughters, you'll understand exactly why."
   Taylor smirked, "No, I do believe mine would have to be at least sixty."
   Somehow managing to squeeze onto the couch next to him as well, Randy nodded in agreement. "Around there, or sixteen." She admitted.
   His head shook and hers nodded, Isaac and Mackenzie both rolled their eyes at each other before turning back to the TV screen.
