Chapter 3

                                                                                                     Nancy, the kids, and Jimmy stopped freaking out and they just looked at each other.  "Do you even know what time Live with Kelly and Ryan even starts?" Nancy asked.  Jimmy thought about it for the longest time as he walked away from his wife.  Jimmy starts texting Ryan for details about the show tomorrow. He set his phone down and continues what he was doing with his kids. Jimmy calls for his daughters and they came. Jimmy bends down and Winnie jumped on his back. "What would you like to do for lunch?" Nancy asked. Before Jimmy even started playing with his daughters, he looks up at the clock. It is only ten o'clock. You can wait until about eleven-thirty to figure out lunch," Jimmy said as he galloped into the living room.  Nancy rolled her eyes and she tried to find something to do until then. Eleven-thirty came around and it was time to cook lunch. Jimmy came back into the kitchen with his other daughter on his back, kicking him everywhere on his body. Jimmy sets his daughter down and looks at his wife. He kissed his wife for a quick second and walks into the bathroom to wash up. Jimmy turns on the light and looks in the mirror. He lifts his shirt up, and his whole body including his belly was really red. Jimmy takes the saddle off, slams it on the ground, and starts screaming.  Nancy hears Jimmy screaming and runs to the bathroom to see what was going on. She gets to the bathroom and looked at him. "What's wrong Jimmy?" Nancy asked. Jimmy stopped screaming and started staring at his wife. He stops staring and lifts up his shirt. Nancy looked at it for a few seconds, her face got really red, and she went after her two daughters. Jimmy closes the door and continued to scream as loud as he could for the whole neighborhood to hear it. He opened the door and Nancy was bringing the kids along with her.  She started screaming at them for all of the kicking that they do. Nancy had Jimmy lift up his shirt to see how red his body is.  "You are not allowed to have any piggyback or horsey rides for the both of you for two weeks," Nancy said. Winnie got so mad that she kicked Jimmy right in the stomach and stormed off. Frances tried to get on Jimmy's back but was stopped by Jimmy. She got mad and went into her room. Nancy hugs Jimmy and gives him a kiss. "I'm sorry they did that to you," Nancy said. Jimmy kisses her back and smiles. "You're fine. I thought I would tell you what was going on," He said. Nancy grabs Jimmy by the hand and they ran into their bedroom to have a little time together. Jimmy closes the door and walked to his bed. He sits down and looks at his wife. "I hate that your daughters kicked you that much," Nancy said. Jimmy smiled at Nancy and turned on the tv. Nancy grabs the remote, turns off the tv, and looks at him. 

                                                                                                   Jimmy stares at his wife with an evil look for a few seconds and he snatches the remote out of her hands. He turns the tv back on and started watching again. Nancy gave up and walks out of the room to let Jimmy watch tv. Twelve o'clock came around and Jimmy was getting hungry. He turns off the tv and walks to the kitchen. As he gets into the kitchen, Nancy and the kids were standing near the table with food. "The kids felt bad for what they did so we cooked lunch," Nancy said. Jimmy got some tears in his eyes and ran over to his kids.  They hugged for about fifteen seconds and Nancy started to pass the food out.  Everyone finally got their food and started eating. "So, what are we going to do today?" Winnie asked. Jimmy stops eating and looks at her. He took a bite of his food before answering the question. "What are you wanting to do today?" Jimmy asked.  Winnie thought about it for the longest time as Jimmy just stared her down. Winnie didn't like all of the pressure so she runs into the living room. The rest of the family just sat there for a few seconds and continued to eat. Winnie back in and sat down in her chair. The whole family ate in silence as they continued to eat the lunch that Nancy prepared.  Jimmy didn't like the silence so he grabs his plate and takes it into the living room. Winnie gets up from the table and tried to go be with her dad but was too late. Nancy has her sit down and continues to eat. Jimmy gets done eating and walks into the kitchen to rinse his plate. He smiles at his family and walks out of the kitchen. Jimmy sits down on the couch for the second time, turns on his game system, and starts playing a game. Nancy comes into the room and sits down. Nancy gets up, grabs a controller and they started to play together.  Evening came and they were still playing on Jimmy's game system. Nancy paused the game and walks over to the phone. She dials the number and starts ordering the pizza.  She gets done ordering pizza and walks back to the couch to continue playing video games with Jimmy. She unpaused the game and they started to get competitive. Thirty minutes went by and it was time for Nancy to get the pizza. She ended the game and she celebrated all the way to the door. Jimmy runs over to her, grabbed the keys, and they walked out the door together.  Jimmy closes the door and they ran to the vehicle. Jimmy gets in and starts it up. Nancy finally gets in and they drove to the pizza place. "Are you excited for tomorrow?" She asked as the ride began. Jimmy looks at his wife. "Well of course. I have never been on Live with Kelly and Ryan before," he said as he got stopped at a stoplight. Nancy's jaw dropped as the light turned green and Jimmy started driving again. "Is your body still hurting from all that kicking?" Nancy asked as they were getting closer to the pizza place. Jimmy gets to the pizza place, parks the vehicle, and pulls his shirt up. He turns his body so Nancy could see it. She would look at him for a few seconds and then go in to get the pizza. Jimmy turns on the radio and he started to sing along to the music playing. 

                                                                                                            Nancy comes back to the car, puts the pizza in the back seat, and gets in the front. She closes the door and looks at Jimmy. "What took you so long?" Jimmy asked as he turns down the radio. He starts heading out of the parking lot. Nancy just looks at him with a blank look. "There was a long line to get the pizza sweety," Nancy said. The silence broke in the car and Jimmy turns up the radio. He gets stopped by a stoplight and both of them started singing along to the music. They finally get home, Nancy grabs the pizza and started heading toward the front door. Jimmy opens the door and she walks in. "It's dinner time girls!" Nancy screamed. She walks into the kitchen and waits for the girls to come in. Jimmy grabs his two slices and goes to the table. The girls finally came to the kitchen, grab their slices of pizza, and walks over to where their parents are. The girls walk over to the table, look at Jimmy, and sit down. They started eating the pizza without saying a word. The whole family sat in silence as they continued to eat. Jimmy didn't like all of the silence from his family so he walks over to the living room. Nancy gets up from her seat and grabs another slice of pizza.  Everyone gets done eating and started cleaning up. Nine o'clock came around and it was time for the whole family to get to bed. Nancy carries her daughters to bed and walks back downstairs. Nancy and Jimmy started t stare at each other. The staring stopped and they walked back to the kitchen. When they got into the kitchen, Jimmy grabs some beer and pours it into a cup. "Did Ryan tell you when you are going to be on the show?" Nancy asked. Jimmy was almost done chugging down his beer before even saying a word to his wife.  She sits down at the kitchen table and waits for an answer some Jimmy.  Nancy got tired of waiting so she got on her phone. Jimmy walks over to the table and sits down. "Ryan said that he would text me about tomorrow's show and I haven't gotten one yet," Jimmy said as he started to chug another beer down the hatch. Nancy just rolled her eyes as he puts the cup down. "Wouldn't you think he would've given you the information the day before," Nancy said. Jimmy just shrugged his shoulders and he started walking up the stairs. Without any warning, Nancy jumps on Jimmy's back and starts slapping his butt. "Is this really necessary?" Jimmy asked. She nods her head as they got to the stairs. Jimmy puts one foot on the step and starts struggling.  They get to the top step and started heading to the bedroom. They got to the bedroom and Jimmy lowered his wife down very slowly. He gets in bed and looks at his Nancy. They said their good nights, Jimmy turned off the light and fell asleep.  The next morning and Jimmy was the first one up. He gets up, stretches, and walks to the bathroom. A few moments later, he comes out, grabs his clothes, and walks back in to take a shower.  Nancy gets up and walks to the kitchen to cook some breakfast. They met in the kitchen, with breakfast ready to eat.  Jimmy walks away from the kitchen to grab his daughters. He came back with one girl on his back and one hanging by his shirt, still sleeping.  He plops them in the chairs and gets ready for breakfast. 

                                                                                               The girls finally woke up and they started to eat their breakfast. "Are you ready for the show?" Nancy asked. Jimmy sets his fork down and looks at Nancy. "I am kind of nervous about it," Jimmy said. One of the girls looked at her dad. Nancy just looks at Jimmy. "I actually think you will be fine," Nancy said as she took another bite of her food. He didn't know what to tell his wife so Jimmy continued to eat his food. They get done eating and started to get ready to go on Live with Kelly and Ryan.  Jimmy runs up the steps, grabs his clothes, and takes a quick shower so Nancy can get a shower. She walks in as Jimmy was getting out of the shower. Jimmy quickly gets dressed and he walks down the steps to watch tv while the rest of the family got ready.  They all got ready and started heading toward the car. Jimmy unlocks his car and they quickly get in. Jimmy starts his car and started heading toward the studio. On the way to live with Kelly and Ryan's studio, Jimmy turns on the radio and started to sing along to the music. He gets stopped at a stoplight and continued to sing along to the music. The light turned green and Jimmy started to drive again, still singing. They got to the studio, Jimmy turned off the radio and they headed in. Ryan met them at the entrance and lead them to the dressing room. They got into the dressing room and started to get ready for the show. Nine o'clock came around and it was time for Jimmy to go on.  He could hear the noise on the other side of the wall while the show was going on. Nancy walks up to Jimmy and stares at him. "Are you nervous?" Nancy asked. Jimmy tried to get away from her but wasn't very successful. "I am not nervous. I was practicing in the shower what I was going to say on the show," Jimmy said as he walked out of the dressing room. Nancy and the kids followed him into the studio. They went into the audience and sat down.  Jimmy started heading toward the wall to get ready for his big entrance.  They got through the beginning of the show and Jimmy started to prepare. The commercial break ended and Kelly started to introduce Jimmy. She gets done speaking and Jimmy started to walk to his chair. 

                                                                                                           As he made his way toward his seat, Jimmy starts waving at everyone and blew kisses. He gets to where Kelly and Ryan were standing, shook their hands, and sat down. The interview started and Jimmy was actually ready. After he would answer a question, Jimmy would look at his wife in the audience and smile. He listens to the next question and tried to answer it the best he could. The interview was going so well that Ryan started to make plans to do something after the show. However, Jimmy told Ryan that he made plans with his family and they can do it later. Ryan was okay with it and Kelly just sat there with a blank stare. Jimmy's kids were starting to get antsy as the interview continued. As Ryan started to ask the next question, all of the lights turned off for a few seconds and then turns back on. Jimmy looks over into the audience and his family was gone. Jimmy didn't know what to do so he just sat there with a blank look on his face.
