Zoey would have a lot to write about when she did her "What I Did This Summer" report when school started. First there had been two new arrivals to the Defenders with Andy and Eiltin. Three if you counted Titan, who Zoey liked to call Big Green. Next came finding George and taking care of him. That lead to an adventure into space and beating Galactus.

Now it was a trip to Boston. Zoey loved taking trips and flying on airplanes, especially to places she never been before. Boston was a city she hadn't been to before and when Mom asked if she wanted to go, Zoey immediately said yes. Daddy had said he would show her around and she would get to meet her grandparents. Zoey never had grandparents before and thought it would be neat to meet them and get to know them.

The only downside was that she couldn't take George. She left him in her room and George assured her that he would be able to get his own food and take care of himself. Zoey didn't like leaving him, but she had no choice. She packed her own suitcase and backpack. She took clothes and some books to read on the plane. Her iPod and Nintendo DS were also put in her backpack.

Zoey read on the plane and also took a nap. They were in Boston in what seemed a short while. She started out the window as they were landing. The city looked pretty from the air and there was a lot of water. It was the Atlantic Ocean. Zoey had looked at the atlas before she left.

They collected their luggage and Zoey walked with her dad out of the airport. Holding his hand as was the rule when around a large number of people.

"Well, I was telling her about how her grandparents met at Harvard and she came right out and asked me if we were getting married. When I told her that we would need to discuss something like that, she told me that we're happy when we're with each other, so we should get married." Avery says, chuckling nervously.

"I told her it wasn't that simple and found a shiny change of topic to go into after that." Avery says. "I just wanted you to be aware in case she brought it up to you."

"I see," she said, still in shock by the news. "I never expected her to bring that up. At least not yet."

"Thank you for telling me. Maybe I won't be as shocked when she brings it up."

"Neither did I." Avery says, uncertain of how to proceed with the conversation from this point.

"Uh, dinner's coming up soon, so we should probably get downstairs. I'm sure she'll want to call you tomorrow and tell you about our day again." Avery says.

Syd wasn't sure what to say either. It was a topic that would be way down the road if they got to that point.

"Okay. I have to go too. Tonight's a working dinner for me. I'd love to hear from her tomorrow and hear about her day. Give her my love."

"I will. Good night, Sydney." Avery says, before closing the call.

Zoey came running out of the bathroom. "I'm ready," she said with a smile. "Is it time for dinner?"

"It's almost time, Small Lady. Did you wash your hands?" he asks.

Avery smiles at Zoey and kisses her forehead. "Okay, sweetie. Let's go eat."

Zoey took his hand and lead him downstairs.
