Nika groaned as the line seemed to get longer and longer the more people moved up to the pay booth at six flags. She thought it would just be nice to take the boys to six flags, the Bugs Bunny rides, and she new how much Jaime loved Spongebob, so of course she and him would go on that one, but she had to pick a day where it was so freaking crowded. She had been standing in that line for at least a half and hour, and Jaime was getting antsy. Jackie was in his stroller, and Matt would be by later after he got off work.

Gabriella was ahead in line, by only bit a little bit. She had woken up early, got all the kids dressed (including Lillians children) and brought them to Six Flags. Lillian, Gabys best friend, had to work today so Gaby volunteered to watch her tots for the day: Three year old Hailey, and 11 month old Kylie, as well as her 8months old twins as well. She had purchased a four seater stroller at the entrance and had placed them each inside it. Hailey, though, who was getting bored, demanded to be let out so she could entertain herself. The rest however, sat in their stroller seats with pacifiers in their mouths, and bottles next to them. Just the other day Gabriellas twins learned how to hold bottles by themselves, a proud day for Gaby indeed. As Gaby stood there with the stroller, Hailey wandered off a bit and spotted a pigeon, which she chased. A moment or so later Gaby noticed Hailey wasnt with her. She spotted her over by a fountain and called her over. "me no wanna" she complained. Gaby sturdied her voice and called her again, she stuck her tongue out at Gaby. "Hailey, get over here or else I'll just have to Lillian (her mother). Hailey slowly trotted back to Gabys side, head drooped.

Nika was waiting impatiently in the line, and bending down a little to feed Jackie his bottle that she didn't even notice Jaime had let go of her hand. She turned around and had a moment of panic when she saw he wasn't there, thinking the worst, when her eyes spotted him moving towards a small girl. "Jaime," she called, "Get back here."

Hailey spotted a small boy, about her age. "Fend(friend)" she said as she walked over towards him. "Hailey, get your tush back here right now" Gaby shouted. She was stuck. She couldnt leave the stroller and if she walked away she'd lose her place in line, and it was a LONG line, as always. "Haileee!" she shouted. Hailey ignored her and ran over to Jaime. "Hi" she greeted. "Haileeeeeee!" Gaby repeated.

Nika looked at how far the line went back and debated if she should get out of it to go get Jaime, who wasn't listening and have to wait another freaking half hour or is she should call for him somemore. The decesion was made for her when she saw him get closer to the little gir. She grabbed the stroller and strolled toward him, resigned to waiting more in the line from hell.

Gabriella was still stuck. The line was far too long back for her to lose her spot just two people behind the booth. She kept an eye on Hailey as she waited for the line to move so she could quickly get their tickets before going to grab Hailey and drag her along with them. She turned around and watched Hailey. "me Haley, who you?" she asked Jaime. Gaby continued watching. Wasnt that Nikas son? "Jaime?" she called to him curiously. Was Nika here too? Finally they were next in line. Gaby bought 5 all day wristbands and then turned around and strolled up to Hailey. "Lets go Hailey, back in the stroller" she said calmly but firmly as she lifted the three year old up and into the stroller. She buckled her in and handed her some animal crackers to occupy her.

Nika finally got to Jaime, "Choco Puff, didn't I tell you to stay next to mommy." She said, picking up her son and smiling at the little girl he was playing with. She looked up and spotted someone she knew, Gabby.

Just as Gaby was about to stroll away she realized that this was Jaime, and Nika was standing right by her. "Oh hey, I saw you but it didnt register until right now" she replied. "Are you three here for the all day toddler special too?" she questioned. She smiled down at the four kids she had with her. Suddenly her cell phone rang, she gave Nika the one minute motion as she covered her ears and said: Gaby- Hello? Lillian- Hey Gabs. hows the kids? I really appreciate you taking them there for me Gaby- Oh their fine, Hailey gave me a small problem but no worries Lillian- What she do? Gaby- doesnt matter, shes okay, dont worry I can handle them all Lillian- Okay, if your sure...thanks again Gaby- no problem and I am sure Lillian- Okay, I gotta get back to work now, see ya later Gaby- Bye Lillian Gaby closed her phone. "Sorry bout that, that was the others kids mother, Lillian" she explained. McKenzie whined because the sun was getting to her. Gaby flipped the stroller visor down to shield the sun from their eyes. McKayla sucked her bottle. Kylie grabbed an animal cracker from Hailey, who graciously gave her one.

Nika smiled. "It's okay, Gabby. And we were going to be, I don't know anymore if we are staying, because someone made me get out of a line I was standing in for half and hour, and now does not know if she wants to return to the line from hell and wait another half an hour."

"Yeah, it is a long line, I got here about an hour ago and just now got my tickets." she paused, and smiled. "If only the manager here was my fiancees cousin...*sigh* Oh wait! she is!" Gaby said with a laugh. "Really she is, Justins cousin owns the place, I havent really been waiting that long, she saw I was here and moved me to the front of the line" she explained. "She loves me, I'm sure she can hook you up too, just let me go get her" she remarked as she strolled back up the line to the booth, motioning Nika to follow her.

Nika almost smiled with relief, she really did not want to go back to the line from the seven level of hell. "Come on Jaime, Gabby's going to see if she can get us out of the nasty line," she said pushing the stroller along. Jackie had fallen asleep, so she put down the hood of the stroller so the sun wouldn't hit him to badly. Jaime grabbed her hand as she followed Gabby.

Gabriella went inside the booth and talked to her fiancees cousin, who waved them through. "Your next" Gaby told Nika with a smile. Gaby entered the park and waited for Nika and her tots. She was glad she could help a friend, and she was even happier that she had connections. Hailey waved bye bye to her 'auntie may'. Gaby waited.

Nika smiled with relief after getting admited to the park and saying thank you to Gabby's friend. She walked up to Gabby and smiled. Jaime was bouncing up and down with excitment, his little face had the hugest grin she had ever seen. "Thanks Gabby, I would have offed myself if I had to stand in that line for another half and hour."

Gaby smiled "Any time" she replied as she pushed the 4 seater stroller through the park. "Why dont we stop at Camp Snoopy first?" she suggested, since it was just ahead of them. Hailey smiled with excitement. "Soopy! I wuv soopy!" she exclaimed. (Snoopy)

Nika laughed as Jaime bounced around excitadly, shyly going up to the girl, Hallie, and looking like he wanted to grab her hand. "Sure, I think Jaime was hoping we would do the spongebob ride sometime today, he loves spongebob."
