Livana Reyes stood in front of the mirror in the bathroom. She was trying to get this damn earrings onto her ears.

"Argh!", she called out in frustration. "Fuck this." She gently threw the earrings back into their little box, shut it and put it away carefully. With a sigh she decided today was not a day for earrings.

The woman left the bathroom, all finished up for a casual Sunday morning, and went through the graceful hallway in their Beverly Hills mansion. She knocked at a door. "Jess, are you up? I expect you at breakfast." She went onto the next door, being the room next to Jess's. "Same for you Rina. Downstairs in ten!" The woman went on to go to her son's door, who's room was a little further away from the two girls. She knocked heavily. "Ten minutes, Jacob."

Hopefully the last Sunday before school would be relaxed. School, of course for the three teens. And work would get started for her soon again, too. Apart from the usual morning stress, it was a lovely day in Los Angeles.

Lawrence went to Denny's for breakfast, thinking that it'd be nice to go out, and then he was greeted by the one thing that made him stop going out: reporters and paparazzi. Ignoring their questions and constant pictures, he got a seat at the bar and ordered an omelet. While he tried to eat it, the reporters asked him endless questions. He stopped eating it for a moment and turned to the nearest reporter. "Alright, what's your question?" He asked with a full mouth.

The reporter asked: "Why haven't you confirmed the rumors that you're dating Jennifer Lawrence?"

He took a second to swallow the bite that was still in his mouth. Looking at the crowd, notepads and pens in hand and cameras ready to go off, he turned to the reporter and asked: "Why can't I eat my Goddamn omelet?" With that, the reporters scribbled on their notepads and took pictures, before Lawrence just took the omelet from the plate, said "I'm taking this to go, here's the cash, keep the change." Before leaving ten bucks on the counter and leaving with the omelet. He got back into his car, stuffing the food into his mouth, and drove to his sister's house.

Once he arrived, he walked in and declared: "Hey, it's good ol' Lawrence!" After a bit of walking he found his sister, Livana. "Uh, hey, I need a place to lay low right now... Paparazzi and all, wouldn't let me eat my fucking omelet at Denny's."

3rd January 2016 - Sunday morning

Jessica


Jessica was sitting on her pink throne chair in front of her vantity desk. She had loosely curled her hair and was now applying natural looking makeup with a pink smokey eye. "Yes, Mom. I'll be down soon." She called after her Mother. Jessica was the oldest and had a very good relationship with both Mothers. With her siblings they got on sometimes, certainly not always. She finished applying her makeup before putting her UGG boots on and heading out of her bedroom. She had an earphone in one ear, her Iphone in her hand. She loved listening to music. She locked her bedroom door before heading downstairs. "Morning." She said before sitting down at the table. She was hungry but she also wanted to get on with her day. She had a shopping date with her friend planned.

Jacob had just woken up in his house. He lived with his fiance in a house near his sister's. He had a very close relationship with his sister and to the children was the 'cool' uncle. He had showered and dressed before heading downstairs. The maid had made stacks of pancakes and spread them onto two plates. Jacob picked up his plate and sat down at the table. He drizzled them with maple syrup before starting to eat. He would eat before working out. Life was good and for once everything seemed to be quiet and peaceful. That Jacob had no idea how long would last. Alas he would enjoy it whilst it did.

It was Sunday morning. Sitting in her professionally outfitted home recording studio, Vanessa was up at an atypical hour for the weekend.

Leaving Livana's embrace in the twilight hours - reluctantly - her music muses were alight. If she waited to record the idea, the brunette feared she'd lose it. It was something she experienced many times over again. Placing her guitar down on a nearby stand, she readjusted her headphones and played the file. Tapping the BPM rhythm with her non-dominant hand, Vanessa scribbled down some ideas at specific time marks. She loved music, but good lord was it a meticulous art. It was hard to appreciate the work that went into it.

Saving what progress she made so far, Vanessa glanced at a clock mounted on the wall. She blinked. Blinked again. "Oh."

Once everything was saved, Vanessa put her Apple desktop to sleep. Sitting too long as made her sore. Sadly, it was a common soreness.

Turning off the light, Vanessa tussled her messy brown hair and was met with bright sunlight. Unlike her better half, Vanessa was a poor paragon of fashion when she was at home. Bad example for the kids probably.

Wandering around the mansion towards her room, Vanessa spotted two familiar faces. She walked over and waved at Lawrence. "I thought I heard something," Vanessa said in her silky medium alto voice. "Morning Lawrence. Home's open to you as always." Vanessa turned her attention to Livana. "Morning love. Someone's at the table. You woke the kids?"

Vanessa rubbed her hands together. "You joining us then, Lawrence? I'm sure we have a spare seat."

Livana smiled at her brother. "Welcome to your second home, brother." She hugged her brother tight and gestured him to feel just at home. Then she turned to her lovely wife. "Good morning, angel." She leant in and placed a soft kiss on her lover's lips. "I assume you were working once again? Did you make progress?" The woman smiled adoringly.

As much as she liked waking up in her lover's arms, she also loved waking up to her musician wife progressing in her work. "I expect to hear it later. And yes, I woke the kids. Jess went to the table already."

Roman didn't need to be awoken. He sat ready at the table, with a tea in hand. He had no time to sleep in, he had 8 hours and that was all he needed. He flicked his phone screen, checking up on Instagram, ignoring everything going on around him. He finished his tea and looked disappointingly at the bottom of the cup. The tea was imported, and he would have to get more, he was almost out. It was the nectar of life.

Lawrence smiled at his sister and her wife, before sitting down in a chair. "Never understood paparazzi. I mean, do you really need to pester celebrities with countless fucking questions? Sometimes I wish that my career never took off, then I wouldn't have to deal with this..." And then, Lawrence stands back up. "Well, I'll just stay here for a while if that's fine. After all, it's Sunday, no need to go on the set or anything." While saying this, Lawrence was walking into the living room. Once he was done, he sat down on the couch and turned on the TV, switching it to the news.

Vanessa returned the kiss and gave Livana one of her trademark winks. "I was afraid I'd lose it if I didn't work it out. I'll give you the exclusive listen," she said. Listening to Lawrence's take on the paparazzi, Vanessa shrugged. It came with being famous she supposed. "They can be a bit unreasonable. Comes with the lifestyle though. I try to ignore them. Hard to do in public though."

Seeing Lawrence leave the two, Vanessa reached over and gave Livana a gentle tug. "Lets not keep the kids waiting then." Vanessa took in the scent of food. "Whatever's being served, it smells mighty fine."

"Ugh..."
exited Elizabeth's mouth as she got out of bad. She rubbed her eyes and threw her red hair up in a sloppy bun to keep it out of her eyes. She stood up and dug through her dresser for a little while, attempting to get a grasp at what she'd wear today.
After picking out her clothing, she went and threw her hair down so she could take a quick shower, and so she did.

After getting out of the shower, she dressed in the clothes she had picked out and walked downstairs. She heard her mother in her art studio talking to a client "Oh, you wanted it a darker..." her voice faded out.
She started to walk down the stairs.

Yuli had spent her earliest parts of the morning jogging before Jacob had woken up. She used this time to think about positive things to come, and often negative things as well. Getting home she changed into a more flattering outfit besides her gym attire, and made a cup of coffee. Sitting outside on the house's backyard porch she watched her dog Henry smell the ground and run around. "Come on Henry, let's go inside and see if Daddy's awake." she called to the small dog as she took a sip of her drink and pulled herself up onto her feet.

Turning around and going inside she was met with her fiance's charming smile and bright loving eyes. "Good morning handsome." she cooed, leaning over and kissing his temple gently before joining him at the table. She hadn't wanted any of the pancakes their maid had prepared and had settled for a granola bar before her jog earlier.

Livana held the little girl Ava on her arms, bouncing slightly. "Are there plans for today?", she asks her wife. Hopefully they'd find some time to cuddle over a tv show today. With all the kids in the house and all the responsibilities it was sometimes hard to find bonding time for the two wives.

With a frown Livana thought if she should bother her not-present kids again with a knock on their door, but decided against it. It was Sunday after all, and the last day before school too. If they didn't wanna come down for breakfast, she would just leave them for today.

Vanessa saw Ava-Berry nestled in Livana's arms and leaned over and kissed the toddler's forehead. "How's my little Berry bunny doing? Huh? Doing Berry good?" Vanessa smiled as she stood back up. "Hold her tight alright? As for plans. Don't think so. No interviews or PR stunts on my end. Thank goodness. You know how tiring those can get? Especially with the reporters crowing about. I wished they'd go back the Osbournes instead. What about you? Any plans?"

Wrapping an arm around Livana, Vanessa led the way to the kitchen. "I'm hungry, darling. I'm sure as sure Ava-Berry is too, right my Berry queen?" Crossing into the kitchen, Vanessa saw Jessica, Jacob, Roman, and Yuli present. They were still missing some folks. If they didn't show up in the next few minutes, Vanessa was going to have to go on the prowl. After Ava-Berry was settled into the baby chair, Vanessa took a seat after grabbing a plate of food for Livana and herself. Ava-Berry too. The maid already made a special plate for their little girl. "Morning guys. One more day before heading back to the grind. Excited?"

Picking at her plate, Vanessa nibbled on the pancakes. "By the way Jessie, I saw your new shoots. They're simply marvelous."

She looked at Roman and smiled. "What's it today, Roman? Green tea? Jasmine? Pu-er? There's a tea shop that just opened in the city. If you're not too cool for you mom, we'll do a mother-son date. Interested?"

Chewing on another piece of her pancake, Vanessa swallowed before moving her attention to Jacob and Yuli. "Morning you two lovely doves," she said. "Is Henry here Yuli? I have a soft spot for dogs. Any performances coming up for you? After your last one, well, you won yourself a humble fan."

Jessica

Jessica sat at the table nibbling on her pancakes. She really wasnt that hungry and was too busy listening to R'n'b mixes to really listen to much that was going on. It was mostly about the politics that occur when you live within a famous family. Her friends were all green with envy about her lifestyle, but Jess had been born into it. She looked up though "would I be able to use some money? I'm going shopping with Scarlett and Olivia." Jessica asked looking between her Mothers. Some of the money belonging to Jess was from modelling but it was controlled due to the large amount that she had earned already. She loved earning money, but on top of that she also loved modelling. Due to being in teen magazines this made her one of the 'popular' kids.

Jacob grinned looking at his wife and admiring her form. She was so beautiful and he truly felt blessed to be engaged to such an amazing woman. He looked over at his sister in law. "Morning, Vanessa. What have you been up to?" He asked her turning his gaze to his youngest neice, Ava. She was such a cutie. He loved children and hoped one day he too would have a beautiful family. He was slightly envious of his sister and her beautiful, large family. He wanted all of that with his beautiful Yuli. He ate his breakfast as everyone chatted and looked forward to hitting the gym for some muscle and cardio workouts.

Ava

Ava sat on her mothers knee with a soft smile on her face. She began picking up the pancakes and eating some, throwing other bits onto the floor with a cute giggle as she watched them spring onto the floor. It was simple things like this that she loved doing. She loved getting attention but she equally loved seeing what happened if she explored with various things.

The wife and mother listened to her long-time lover as she talked. It seems she was having one of her good days. Great! A big smile appeared on her lips. "I don't have any plans for today." She thought about all the things on her mental checklist related to work. "Although I still need to give Meghan Trainor a call." She waved it off with her hand. "Nothing important."

Her daughter then asked for money. Livana decided to leave that decision up to her wife. If it was for Liv, there was no end in clothes whatsoever. She was a typical fashion girl. And was in fact planning on putting her foot down in that industry soon enough. But yet she hasn't talked about it with anyone from her family.

A pancake piece landed on the floor. Livana took the rest of the pancakes out of Ava's hands. "They're to eat, honey. Don't throw them under the table, please. Look at this." She grabbed a knife and a still-in-one-piece pancake and made it heart-shaped. "What's that Ava-Berry?"

As the kitchen began to crowd almost as soon as Yuli came in from outside, she couldn't help but feel a bit overwhelmed. She was still new to this family, and her own family consisted of just her father, mother, and herself so she was not used to such a clan just yet. "Is Henry here Yuli? I have a soft spot for dogs. Any performances coming up for you? After your last one, well, you won yourself a humble fan." Vanessa asked, as she sat down at the table. Yuli nodded, "Yes, he's outside still playing around. He loves being able to have a backyard to play in, when I lived at the apartment he was always so bored!" she explained, using her hands as she talked for slight emphasis. "And yes, I have a performance coming up at the end of the month, it's a showcase for a few different dancers so it should be fun! I'll try to get you guys tickets if you'd like." she stated, a small smile across her face.

Her hands rested in her lap adjusting her navy blue skirt, tugging it down gently at the hem. Her eyes gazed to Jacob as she placed her hand on his knee. A small loving gesture to show how much she enjoyed his presence.

Nylah had long been awake and was currently with her mother eating breakfast. On her plate was 2 pieces of french toast with a lot of bacon and sausages. A yawn escaped her lips as she had on simple sweats and a T-shirt before her mother sat across from her. "Are we doing anything today mommy?" she asked, stuffing her mouth with bacon. 17 and yet the teen still called her mother such a childish word rather than 'mom'. "Well, not before the event, no." answered Candice Rose {mother}. "Event?" Nylah inquired looking at her mother with a raised eyebrow. Her mother wiped her lips with a napkin before uttering a small 'Mhm' in response before swallowing her food."Charity gala. Formal, at 8."

"Oh." nodded the teen. "Fancy dinner. Gotcha.." added Nylah as she pointed at her mother with her fork. "Not really... The fancy dinner is at the end. Its a formal event where people talk to other people, and then at 8 is the actual dinner." nodded Candice. "Unless you wanna do something before the event, I'm actually free." her mother offered. "Well, I'm not exactly sure what we should do... I prefer staying home when i'm free, You know that." The young actress stabbed the french toast with her fork and took a bite from it. "Any suggestions?" She asked with her mouth full. "Rollerskating?" Candice started off. "You always love rollerskating." she adds, but her only daughter shook her head. "Iceskating?" suggested the woman. "Nah..." Nylah responded before perking her head up abruptly, the french toast landing right on her lap.

"OOOhh! Errgh!" She suddenly said, picking the sticky french toast up from her lap and tossing it on her plate. Candice merely laughed as Nylah attempted to wipe the syrup from her sweats. It was an unpleasant feeling. "How about a trampoline place.." said the girl as she continued eating. Candice let out a sigh before grinning. "Fine." she concluded. "Finish up breakfast and check if 'Launch' is open, or skyzone."

"K" Nylah answered, still irritated by her pants being dirtied.

"Sure mom, sounds like a great idea" Roman said as he ate the breakfast in front of him, mindlessly scrolling on his phone in the other hand. He made and annoyed sound and put the phone away, picking up his empty plate and putting it in the dishwasher. He sat at the table, waiting to see what his family had in store for the day. If they weren't gonna do anything, he might just laze around all day.

Hearing Jessica speak up, Vanessa pursed her lips as she cut herself another of the pancake. "Sounds like fun. I don't see why not," Vanessa said. "We gave you a credit card remember? Just don't max it out or lose it. There's a process for deactivating and getting a new one. Not something I want to repeat. I digress though. Go have fun Jess! Say hi to Scarlett and Olivia for me, if I don't see them."

Next was Jacob who spoke. "Other than repping the worse fashion at the table currently? I was in the studio before coming here." She took a sip of water. "Get an idea, you have to get it down before it disappears. The muse doesn't wait for anyone I'm afraid." Vanessa eyed Yuli's subtle movements. The woman smiled. "Marvelous! I have a few friends interested in coming to see you. Could I send you a total later? Maybe place some more tickets on the side?" Vanessa heard a bark from outside. "Oh Henry! He's always welcome here. Backyard's all his. Well, to an extent."

Vanessa looked over as she saw Livana gently chide Ava. Vanessa stuck her tongue out at the toddler. "No food tossing Berry baby. Food fights get messy, missy."

The Roman spoke up. He was always so composed. Vanessa took that as a blessing. "Then we'll have to plan for that," she said. Vanessa waited for Roman to come back. "So Jess is going shopping. Plans, Roman?"

@luclovers@MissCapnCrunch@Saz

"We can hit up the mall," Roman pondered, thinking off other possibilities. "There's also some kind of dinner gala I'd heard of on social media later. Bit short notice, but we clean up fast." He said with a confident smile.

Meanwhile, Lawrence twiddles his thumbs while sitting on the couch in the living room!
