Lucy said displeased, “No you didn’t?”“Yes I did,” Mitch insisted. “We’re going to Afton’s for dinner tomorrow.”“But I really don’t want to spend anymore time with that jerk!” Lucy complained.“Think I do?” Mitch sighed. “But he is my sister’s boyfriend…”“Well that doesn’t mean I have to like him,” Lucy sighed before she spotted John Ross and Melissa. “Oh hi kids!” Lucy greeted them, “Nice to see you again Melissa.”“Yeah you too,” Melissa said looking a little questioning.“I don’t think she remembers you darling,” Mitch said.“Oh. I’m Lucy John Ross’s cousin. I saw you at the White Rock skating center. This is my husband Mitch.”“Nice to meet you!” Mitch greeted Melissa.“Likewise,” Melissa smiled.“Well we’re going to Lynette and Trevor’s for dinner so…”“We’ll just leave you kids alone,” Lucy said and Mitch and Lucy left.“I like your cousin,” Melissa said.“Yeah she’s nice,” John Ross agreed.“Is she Christopher’s sister?” Melissa asked, as they got out of the pool and sat down in sun chairs.“No Uncle Gary and aunt Valene are her parents.”“Oh so where are they?”“They live in California.”“Oh really? Melissa asked pleasantly surprised. “But I thought you Ewings loved living several generations in the same house…” “We do.”“So why don’t they live with you then?”“It’s a long story really but…you see they met when they were really young, had Lucy, but since my uncle has a drinking problem he bailed. Then Lucy's mama bailed too and left the baby here at Southfork. So Lucy was raised by my grandma. Uncle Gary and Aunt Valene divorced and got remarried but it didn’t work so they divorced again. Then after they had divorced they had two more kids. Twins, and now they are remarried again.”“Hold on… your aunt and uncle have married each other three times?”“Yeah but so has Lucy and Mitch!”“What?!” Melissa exclaimed surprised. “You’re kidding, right?”“No it’s true.”“I don’t get it though, why marry the same person again if it doesn’t work out the first time?”“Well I guess they must really love each other. I mean my parents also married each other two times.”“You mean they renewed their vows?” Melissa asked.“No they got divorced and remarried,” John Ross clarified.“Okay,” Melissa said skeptically.“Maybe it’s crazy to hope for it, but a part of me still hopes that they’ll get back together someday,” John Ross confided in Melissa. “Well it’s not that crazy,” she laughed. “Anyone can tell that your parents are far from over each other.”“You think so?”“Yeah,” Melissa blushed. “I kind of saw your dad make a pass at your mom in the kitchen before…”“Really?” John Ross said delightedly.“Yeah,” Melissa nodded.“That’s great, if they do get back together again I hope they will remarry too,” John Ross smiled.     “You seriously want your parents to remarry two times?” Melissa asked. “I mean why remarry again if it doesn’t work out the first two times?”“Beats me but why think of that…” John Ross leant in towards Melissa. “When I could think of much funnier things we could be doing,” John Ross kissed Melissa who forgot all about his weird family when she felt his lips upon hers. She tentatively responded to the kiss.</blockquote>
