Lillian was excited after hearing the news that Maryanne was having a wedding. She had never been to Vegas before but knew that before she got her hopes up she'd have to speak to Steven about the trip. She waited until after dinner and Steve's bath before she brought it up.

"So, Maryanne is getting married," She sat beside Steven on the couch, reaching up to rub his shoulders. "Tony is letting her take the jet to Vegas."

	"I saw that. It's great, isn't it?" He smiled. "Sounds kind of fun." (Reply to this) (Thread)

	"It is, she deserves to be happy" She smiled. "It does sound fun. Want to go? We can take Steve with us, Bucky will be there." She kissed his cheek. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I think it'd be great to get away for a couple of days, even if we're not getting away alone." He kissed her cheek. "And Steve could definitely use the adventure. Should have the new braces finished before the trip, too, so it'll be easier for him to get around." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Really? You think it's a good idea?" She grinned. "Steve would love the adventure and the chance to have fun." She kissed his cheek again and giggled, "It'll be perfect, I'll let Maryanne know we are going." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"We'll have to keep him close, though. I've heard it can be really crowded and I'd hate for him to get separated. Maybe if we explain that to him he'll let us carry him for a bit?" He smiled. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lillianmayfield 2013-12-16 02:01 am UTC (link)
	"Of course, baby. We will keep a close eye on him." She rubbed his shoulder. "Would you?Maybe we should look into something else." She honestly didn't think that Steve was going to let them carry him. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I think once he sees the crowd he'll agree. He'll need to see how busy it is, though. Might get a little scared by the amount of people. I used to hate being in crowds when I had my braces. Usually ended up getting knocked over." He made a face. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Why don't I talk to him and see how he'd feel about it?" She bit her lip thinking about Steven being pushed over made her a little mad. "What if we got a stroller of some kind for him?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ex_stevengro92 2013-12-16 02:21 am UTC (link)
	"Talk to him. See what he'd like." He smiled. "He seems to respond to you a little better than he does me." He took her hand and squeezed it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Alright. I just don't want him to feel like we're treating him differently" She laced her fingers with his. "He is an amazing little boy" She smiled. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ex_stevengro92 2013-12-16 02:36 am UTC (link)
	"We have to treat him differently, though, Lil." He sighed. "He's not like other little kids. He's got so many health problems..." He shook his head. "He is a strong, amazing little boy but he is different and we can't pretend that he's not." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lillianmayfield 2013-12-16 02:44 am UTC (link)
	"I know we do because of his health problems." She sighed, getting teary eyed already. "But can't we at least try to treat him like the child he is? I don't like that he has to worry about so much, Steven." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I spent most of my childhood worrying about every tiny little injury so trust me, if we can keep him from having to deal with that, I will gladly do so. We can let him be a kid, we just have to be careful." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lillianmayfield 2013-12-16 02:53 am UTC (link)
	"That's all I want, Steven." She wiped her tears and laughed a little, "Sorry I'm being emotional." She sniffled and laid her head on his shoulder. "I care a lot about him, Steven. It's like his my own child, is that weird to say?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ex_stevengro92 2013-12-16 03:01 am UTC (link)
	Steven wrapped his arms around her and kissed the top of her head. "I love that you're emotional." He chuckled. "It's not weird at all. He's me and you love me so..." He smirked. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Lillian leaned into him and smiled. "You do? I always thought you hated it." She sniffled. "I do love you, but my love for him is very different than my love for you." She giggled (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I've lost track of how many times we've had this discussion, Lil." He grinned. "He's hard not to fall in love with, really." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lillianmayfield 2013-12-17 02:33 am UTC (link)
	"I love you" She smiled. Lillian knew they had talked about it a hundred times but she liked hearing it. Since their first argument it had become an insecurity for her. She would never tell Steven though, she knew he would feel horrible. "He isn't, he's so sweet and talented. I love seeing the smile on his face when I tell him he can do something."

	"He's used to being told no." He cleared his throat. "Got told no a lot when I was his age. Only thing I was allowed to do was go to the park every now and then and sit in my room and color." He ran his fingers through his hair. "I want him to be able to have a real childhood." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lillianmayfield 2013-12-17 03:08 am UTC (link)
	"No child should be told no that much. I understand not giving them everything but what you went through had to be horrible if that was the case." She rubbed his stomach and kissed his neck. "He will, he'll have a better childhood than you did, love." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"My dad is out of his life, that already makes it better." He smiled, clearing his throat. His eyes were getting a little misty. "He's going to have the best Christmas ever." He wiped at his eyes. "And the best life." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lillianmayfield 2013-12-17 03:20 am UTC (link)
	"I hate that man so much for what he did to you." She smiled back, stroking his cheek and leaned in to kiss him. "Oh I can't wait, I'm almost finished with his secret room, I should be done before Christmas." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ex_stevengro92 2013-12-17 03:42 am UTC (link)
	"He'll love it." He kissed her back and smiled. "We're both very lucky to have you." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lillianmayfield 2013-12-19 12:51 am UTC (link)
	"I'm lucky to have you." She smiled and looked towards Steve's door. "He's probably sleeping now but I will ask him tomorrow about the trip to Vegas." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ex_stevengro92 2013-12-19 05:14 pm UTC (link)
	"We can assume he's sleeping but as soon as we think he is, he's not." He chuckled and kissed her softly on the lips. "We haven't had a chance to be alone since we took him in." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lillianmayfield 2013-12-21 02:18 am UTC (link)
	"Maybe we should just stop assuming. Maybe then he'll actually be asleep." She moaned quietly, resting her hand on his arm and tilted her head to the side. "It's been too long since we've had some alone time, I'm starting to go through withdrawals. " she giggled. (Reply to this) (Parent)
