Jenny welcomed her boy back with open arms and showered him with kisses before continuing her conversation with Jason's grandparents. From the corner of her eyes, she noticed that Jason was a bit distracted and somehow behaving different from before. He was letting out occasional soft sighs when his eyes glanced over to their side, making it clear to Jenny that he was dissatisfied about something despite being perfectly fine earlier that day. Not knowing if it was her attention he desired or their son's, she did what she could in the moment. Her actions fortunately ending Jason's lowering mood in a matter of seconds.

Whatever had gotten him down, was only able to do so until Jenny herself comforted her jealous prince by holding onto the remaining extended fingers from his hand that he had offered to Charlie. Causing a smile to finally appear on his face again after looking at her with a surprised expression for a moment. Proving that she always knew how to warm up that closed off heart of his, that loved keeping his real feelings a secret. Being caught off guard each time by just this small woman that possessed a special skill of seeing through that thick wall as if it was as clear as today's sky. Not too long after that moment, they got ready to leave and head back to Westwood mansion. Not only was it quite a long drive but Charlie had fallen asleep in Jenny's arms, making that a cue that it was to head home as well.

When they returned to the car after packing all of Charlie's things, to start their drive back home, Jenny was the one to carefully carry Charlie to the door of the backseat. She tried to walk as gently as possible to make sure that he wouldn't be woken up by any sudden movements on her part. Dismissing Jason's offer to carry him in her stead, despite him being quite heavy for her to carry, in order to keep watch of his soft breathing. Glancing down every few seconds to make sure he was still sleeping and comfortable, despite him being a deep sleeper and the fact that he wouldn't be woken up that easily. Mumbling under her breath, "My poor boy must have been so tired to fall asleep like that."

This was indeed the case. Having skipped his nap earlier that day, it was no surprise to see that he was exhausted enough to fall asleep at this time and so soon after lying in Jenny's arms. He had experienced quite an emotionally draining day and having finally become at ease, his earlier lack of sleep must have caught up with him. Causing him to fall asleep despite having finally been reunited with his parents after a week apart, which they had though would be enough to keep him awake all evening until it was time to go asleep for real.

Once she was standing by the door of the car, Jason carefully took their son from Jenny's arms after he had finished putting his little suitcase in the trunk of the car. Under Jenny's soft warnings and worried looks, he put him in the car seat, without waking the exhausted boy up. Something which had become increasingly difficult for Jenny to do with how fast the boy was growing. Though it wasn't impossible for her, he certainly wouldn't have been able to stay asleep while she attempted to do what Jason had done so effortlessly. Since he was sleeping, his already heavy weight would turn to dead weight, making it that much more difficult for her to move him about. Once he was seated and strapped into his child seat, the two of them entered the car as well and the drive could begin.

While their little boy slept, Jason used their time 'alone' to express his desire for having another addition to their little family. Though Jenny played along and entertained the thought at that moment, thinking Jason was just joking or talking out of jealousness from the earlier situation, it was mostly dismissed as some fleeting subject brought up in the heat of the moment. But Jason wasn't planning on dropping that subject just yet as he really felt like making another little creature that was a mixture of the both of them. Hoping to have a girl this time around that would be the spitting image of Jenny, though that might be bad for his heart and surely he would end up spoiling her way too much. Still, he couldn't help feeling this way and since this wasn't the first time he felt this way, it was only right to include Jenny in his thoughts. So, he brought the topic up again when they were in their bedroom getting ready for bed a few short weeks after their trip away.

Jason was lying on the bed on his side, his head propped up on his elbow, when he decided to casually bring the topic up again in a joking way to test the waters once more. While Jenny was taking care of the decorative pillows from their bed he said, "Say, do you really not want to have another baby? I really want to give Charlie a little brother or sister. This time hopefully one that will appreciate daddy dearest a bit more. This one has clearly chosen his favourite." Jenny chuckled at first saying, "Oh come on. Don't say that. How long do you think this will last. Surely he will be picking you over me in no time. Plus, picking favourites can hardly be considered a good reason to have a child. What will you do if the next child likes me better as well? Will we have to have a third child just for the possibility of it liking you more? You might never get a child that does. What will we do then?"
