Cadence walked over to Gregory and crossed her arms. "Celeste told me everything. What were you thinking?! They're adults, Greg!! You can't just yell because you don't like their decisions!"
Gregory's jaw dropped. "C-cadence...?"
Cadence's glare faded and she hugged him. "I missed you."
He hesitated then hugged back. "I...how?!"
"Ender rescued me pretty recently... I got kidnapped by a Sakuron family."
"You...I... I had no idea. I'm so sorry... All this time..." he trailed off, hugging her tighter.
"It's okay. You didn't know," Cadence assured, pulling away and kissing his cheek. "Now... Let's get back to how you talked to our children."
Gregory sighed. "Was it...a bit much?"
"A bit more than a bit! You were a jerk," Cadence replied, giving him a look.
"I was...?" Greg said, surprised. "Oops..."
(Now we know where Ian and Ender get it from... XD)
Cadence just shook her head. "You're absolutely ridiculous. Now... Don't talk to them like that again. Understood?"
"Yes, ma'am," he agreed. "I'll do my best."
Cadence smiled. "Good."
She kissed his cheek then returned to watch A.J. Gregory blinked a few times and almost followed before remembering he got kicked off earth... Maybe he had been a jerk...oops...
