"I... um..." Awkwardly I put a hand on her shoulder. "I'm sorry...."

i smile weakly and look up at him slightly. "it's ok.." i say. i could tell this was awkward for him. i lift my head up, feeling a little dizzy but forget about it.

"Are you sure?" I ask, perfectly willing to help if only I knew how. "Are you sure you don't need the hospital wing? Or even just someone to talk to?"

"not goin with in a ten mile radius of the hospital wing or any hospital. i'll go there when the bay's born and for check ups." i chuckle, "which i have to go to one in a few days..." i remind myself. "sorry...it's just. it's just....hard right now. me being all stubborn and working two job while looking after two kids myself...it just gets hard." i sigh

"Hmm..." I nod, twitching my mouth sympathetically. "Hey, you want me to... babysit, or anything? I realize you don't know me all that well and may not trust me with your kids, but anything I can do...." I shrug.

I smile and shrug. "No problem. They might find me annoyingly strict, though... River says I'm boring. So if they complain... I warned you."

"Uh, okay..." I laugh. "Hm... your children have violent tendencies? I wonder where they picked those up?" I ask, raising my eyebrows at her.

"shut up.." i laugh hitting him lightly. "it's not my fault mia is like her dad."

"And who's her dad?" I ask, trying to remember if we already discussed this... but all I can remember is that Mia and Brett are three and four... unless it's four and five. "For that matter, who's her mum? Not you, right?"

Post by Yumi Baker on Sept 20, 2007 18:15:35 GMT
"nope. i'm not her mum. i don't even know who her mum was. but fabian prewett was her dad. molly's brother."

"Right..." I say, still trying to remember if we already discussed this and if I'm just being slow. "And Brett?" I ask. "Where's he from?"
|

Post by Yumi Baker on Sept 20, 2007 18:21:52 GMT
"i adopted him." i say, "but i don't care what anyone else says. brett is my son and will always be my son. not half my son or anytihng like that."

"Good for you," I nod. "I had this girl follow me around for an hour one time saying that I should call River my half-sister instead of just my sister, just because we have different fathers. The weirdo." I shake my head. "She also objected very strongly to the use of contractions, so I tried not to let it bother me." I shrug.

"hey you got any food on you?" i ask randomly

"Ah... hmm." I reach into my pockets and find a slightly smushed chocolate frog. "Does this count?"

"i love you for the rst of my life.." i say taking teh chocolate frog and taking a bite

I laugh. "Well, thanks, but I'm already engaged."

"really?" i ask after i swallow, "but i'll still love you. you're like my hero. gave me chocolate.." i grin

Post by Chance Gracieux on Sept 21, 2007 13:36:46 GMT
"You have pretty low expectations for your heroes," I say, then nod seriously. "And yes... she's an ostrich. A purple one. And she gets very jealous."

"i'm preggers. you give me chocolate. and stop putting yourself down." i tell him, "and you engaged to an ostrich?" i chuckle

"Yes... a purple one," I repeat, trying to nod seriously again but winding up grinning. "River set us up... said I had to get a girlfriend 'cause I'm pathetic. And I tried to tell her that there's no such thing as purple ostriches, but she didn't believe me." I shrug. "And I'm not putting myself down... just saying that a single chocolate frog shouldn't make me your hero."

Post by Yumi Baker on Sept 21, 2007 17:06:38 GMT
i laugh softly, "well if your pathetic for not getting a girlfriend than i'm pathetic for not having a boyfriend." i chuckle, "and again chance. do you not see the awesomeness in giving a pregnant woman chocolate, in any form?"

"Uh... no, but I'll take your word for it," I shrug. "And neither of us are pathetic... five-year-old sisters are naturally cruel... as are older sisters, actually, since I'm pretty sure she was just repeating what she'd heard Ellie say. But even Ellie and River wouldn't think that you're pathetic."
