shortly.”
    “Thank you .” Bailey said taking control of her siblings again. They followed the stewardess to the seats next to a small table. She noticed coloring books and crayons had already been set out to help entertain the kids.
    “May I bring you drinks while you wait ?” She asked as Bailey slid next to the kids. The excited look on their face prevented her from declining.
    “Yes please….may I have water?”
    “Of course…and what will they have, I have juice, soda, milk?”
    “Juice please .” Alexis spoke up for herself before Bailey could decide.
    “Milk .” Tristan requested.
    “May I bring them cookies?” She whispered in Bailey’s ear.
    “That would be fine thank you .”
    By the time her grandmother boarded with a younger man Bailey placed around his late twenties the kids had finished their cookies and drinks and were well on their way to coloring a picture for their grandmother. When she stopped before them Bailey made the introductions.
    “Alexis…Tristan…this is your grandmother Montgomery .” She said. “This is Alexis and this is Tristan.”
    Alexis looked at her in awe while Tristan shied back hiding behind Bailey.
    “How do you do.” Her grandmother said expecting a response. “You may call me Nana.”
    Alexis beamed . “How do you do Nana.” Then cocking her head she asked. “Do they hurt?”
    “Does what hurt my child ?”
    “Your lines?” She asked with the innocence of a child.
    “Alexis !” Bailey said mortified but her grandmother laughed.
    “No dear they don’t hurt .”
    Ignoring her sisters warning glance Alexis asked . “Can they be fixed?”
    “Yes….but I prefer to keep them…I earned them .”
    “ Oh.” Alexis said confused.
    “Bailey….this is Graham Parker my lawyer .” She said referring the young man she had brought with her. Bailey looked up to see he was trying to contain his amusement. “He needs to go over some paperwork with you…..I will sit with the children while you attend to it.” She announced as she took a seat excepting no arguments.
    Bailey felt Tristan stiffen at the suggestion and before she could comfort him her grandmother spoke.
    “Tristan would be fine….Alexis will help watch him won’t you.” She said. Alexis beamed at the idea but Tristan still looked doubtful. “Tristan….your sister will be right over there and I promise as soon as she’s done with Mr. Parker she will be right back.”
    Tristan looked first at her then at Bailey. Even though she could feel him tremble he nodded his head. Bailey looked at Alexis who assumed her role taking charge of Tristan . Bailey rose and followed Graham over to the other table then turning she sat and watched Tristan stare at her. Once he was sure she was sitting down within eyesight of him he relaxed and let Alexis and her grandmother draw him into coloring again. When it was announced the plane would be taking off he forgot all about Bailey too excited to watch out the window. After taking off Graham went over all the contracts and explained in detail what each meant. Only once he was sure she understood would he give her the pen to sign. Most were about the financial arrangements already resolved with Tristan’s medical bills. There were documents that she signed transferring his medical records from the hospital and his doctors to the new doctor he would be seeing once they were settled. There was also a document to transfer their school records. Finally he got to the contracts regarding her role in the marriage. He explained what would be expected of her and what she in turn would receive.
    Upon arriving she would live at her grandmother ’s estate until the day of the wedding. After the ceremony she would move into the house her husband had provided where she would also be given a car and a monthly allowance. At the end of the year the marriage would be dissolved and she would retain the title to the house and everything inside, the car and the bank account where
