Alfie and Zoey

 So is it the summer you expected?

ALFIE: No not really, but then I wasn't expecting much. I mean, I feel I hardly anything to think at work. (he grins) It's been great having family. Although, I know we can't do this all the time. Going to the lake every Friday night is..um..well... (He looks to Zoey) exhausting.

ZOEY: Pretty much (she nods in agreement with a smile) I think we're really homebodies after all. I mean, I don't think I could do all that entertaining, all the time. I would never have time to keep the house up, even if it is just a one-bedroom apartment. (she shrugs heavily) I like relaxing at home. 

ALFIE: We kind of benge on HOARDERS on Netflix. (He cracks up) 

ZOEY: Well, it keeps us from wanting to be like that, that's all. I don't know. (They are on the couch in their apartment) Maybe we need a bigger apartment. (Alfie rolls  his eyes at that)

ALFIE: (He puts his arm around her and smiles) I think Dad would rather be alone with Janine. (He nods) We'll just do this through July and leave them alone.

ZOEY: Hopefully, she won't bring up the baby thing again. (She gives him a wild look) Maybe Oakley and Finn will give her enough to (she winces with a laugh) coax them perhaps.

ALFIE: She (He looks at Zoey)..she hasn't mentioned it anymore, has she?

ZOEY: Maybe she thinks I'm fat. (Zoey is even lipped as if that's what all this talk is about)

ALFIE: No you're not (He squeezed her shoulder as they get closer). See, it's just hard getting used to so much family. If I were them, I would be worrying about Boone and Lily. Not us.
