Winter, 2063.
Its abit past mid november, slowly but surely making its way to december. Certain places in Canada already had snow, or where expecting it. And most of the younger kids, Angelina Johnson knew, would be getting out for winter break tomorrow.

Phoenix 8390 · 12-27-2007, 03:23 AM

Hearing a distant voice begin to speak to her, Chloe's eyes fluttered open to see Emmylyne near her bedside. "Oh mummy do I 'ave to get up?" the young woman chuckled as she sat up and threw a pillow at her friend. "Wha' time is it anyway?"

Glancing in the mirror as she stood up, she couldn't help but laugh. "Looks like I was in a brawl." She grabbed her brush and began to tame her vibrant red hair that was sticking up in all different directions. After pulling her long-sleeved, red, peace sign shirt on, she put on a pair of skinny jeans and plaid shoes that went perfectly with her shirt. Finally, she placed a black headband in and nodded. "Perfect."

Having taken the longest to get up, Jae rushed to the bathroom to pull on his clothes consisting of a white long-sleeve with a Gaelic football jersey(of course it was from Finn), a pair of straight jeans, and black and green gym shoes.

Giggling as he opened the door to Axel and Nik's room, he glanced down to see that one of them was on the floor. Chuckling as he noticed it was Nik, Jae began to run, head on, in his cousin direction. "COWABUNGA!" he yelled, jumping into his still sleeping cousin.

"UMPH!" Axel was awoken with a start as Jae did a line drive into his stomach, knocking the wind out of him. It took a second for him to realize what had just happen, and to get his breath back, but then he began to laugh which soon turned into a cough. "Sheesh Jae, one of these times you're gonna take me out," he laughed.

Standing up, he placed Jae on the ground then walked over to the pile of blankets that used to be on Nik's bed. "Having some trouble are we?" he laughed, pulling the covers off him. "What sort of dream were you having? I heard you talking," he said as he attempted to stifle a laugh.

After pulling on a pair of straight jeans, a bit too-tight-for-him black sweater, and a pair of black outdoor moccasins, Axel was ready to go. He told Jae to go downstairs as he went to Emmy's room and knocked lightly on the door. "Everyone up?" he asked sweetly.

The young man was definitely in a much better mood than he had been in a very long time. He was head over heels in love with his best friend and he now thought she had felt the same way about him. Why wouldn't he be happy? Then again, that same sick feeling always crept up on him when he thought about it too much because then his mind would linger on Ben for too long.

Chloe opened the door with a flourish and looked at Axel with a puzzled expression. "What's wrong with you?" she asked, motioning to the hand that had involuntarily moved to his stomach.

"Erm..I took a knee to my stomach. Can you guess who it was?" he laughed, glad to have brushed that over quite easily. Chloe was one not to be fooled so he knew he'd have to say things very carefully.

She chuckled lightly, her honey colored eyes still a bit skeptical. "He's a fiesty one, isn't he?" Everyone could agree on that one.

"It's rude to talk 'bout people when they're not 'round," Jae chuckled as he walked past his cousins and disappeared downstairs. He could have sworn he saw the two laugh as he turned the corner.

D.A Forever · 12-27-2007, 06:12 AM

"Yes, I'm afraid so." Emmylyne laughed, playing along while she carefully went around to pick the babies toys she'd left out up, and neatten up the room more. "Abit past nine,"

Sighing softly, Kaitlynnh stood. Gathering both Lissy and Lydia's dance shoes, Julians sneakers and her own pink sparkly glittered ballet flats. Along with each of there sweaters, and afew hair things since Emmy had said she would be doing there hair.

Finally Katie had everything needed and left the room, going downstairs. Now.. where was everyone? Oh well, nonetheless, the seven year old dropped the coats by the front door and continued towards the empty kitchen with the arm full of shoes, that landed with a 'thud' on the wooden floor next to a chair she slid herself into, slipping the ballet flats on one at a time while she waited patiently for the others to join.

Nikolas looked down as his legs appeared from under the blankets after Axel helped. "Ehm thanks," He said, rubbing his eyes briefly. "Uh, Conner, much younger..I was babysitting, He tried sticking mums wand in the toaster when it was on. Thought it would make fireworks," He responded abruptly and shook his head.

As Axel went to say good morning to Chloe and Emmy Nik decided it be best to get up and get dressed, before his sister had an absolute fit over that.

Drying his face after washing it and brushing his teeth, Julian was fully clothed and ready, putting his things away before going down the stairs after Katie and followed into the kitchen. Grandma was no were in sight, he did find this odd but shrugged it off.

As his twin sister handed him the sneakers, Juls pulled out and plopped into a chair before begining to get his shoes on.

Lydia followed closely after Lissy, going to their big sisters room but stopped at the door, like two of the adults seemed to be. "Emmy-"

"-Lyne," Lissy finished for her identical mirror. The only thing different about them today, that gave everyone a fair chance of telling them apart, was Lydia was in the white and black dress while Lissy was in the red and black.

"Whas for breakfast?" Lydia continued on, curiously. Twisting from side to side with her hands folded infront of her.

"When awe you going to do ouw haiw?" Lissy asked, tilting her head to the side abit.

"And when awe we going?" Both said at once.

Hearring the knock, Emmy went to get their door but Chloe had beat her to it. She smiled happily, and went to say something but was interrupted by the younger question-filled twins. "Uhm." It took a moment or so for their rush of words to come back properly, "You'll see in a moment. Before I made breakfast for everyone, and that will be a surprise. Now run along,"

Watching the two do as they were told, Nikolas came next into view. Now thankfully dressed in jeans, and a black hoodie-sweatshirt over his tee. Socks and shoes were on as well, to her surprise.

"Yeah, What's for breakfast Em?" Nikolas asked, being careful as he approached since kids kept running around here and there.

"I said you'll see.." Frowning slightly, as if reading the twenty year olds mind, Emmy shook her head no, "Nikolas stay out of the kitchen, I mean it." Ems was planning this day, because thats just what she wanted to do and Gran was gone, shopping away.

Glancing down as she felt a tug on the bottom of her pants, she laughed lightly to see Lainie standing there, looking up at them while holding onto her jeans. "Can you say good morning?"

Turning her matching hazel eyes to her mummys, Lainie gave an excited nod of her curly haired head. "Mmhhhmms. Goo mow." She exclaimed, showing one of her silly smiles and let go of her mummy for seconds to clap her tiny hands proudly.

Chuckling abit, Nik bent down to be more of the kids size. "Morning Otter," He greeted, holding open his arms for a hug.

Emmy raised an eyebrow, supressing a small giggle. "Don't call her that," But it didn't faze Lain any, she still drove herself to walk those some odd feet to her uncle, without falling once even until she made it to his hand, then she did. Good thing for diapers, they have her padding for times like that.

"Whats so wrong with that? Otter is cute. Shes like an otter, they're amusing. They like entertaining people, they like to show off and they love attention, does that not fit her?" Nik questioned, grinning.

"Nikolas, she's a baby of course she likes attention, and thats good she tries to enteract with everyone else." Emmy protested, hands coming to rest on her hips.

"Lyne you've forgotten to mention showing off, I believe her throwing toys, purposely and hitting people directly in the head could be considered along those lines." He had to admit, for a year and almost half she was gonna be good in sports; She had a good aim already. "Anyways, Otter, want to come downstairs with me?" He offered kindly, not looking to his sister but at his neice as if he needed the babies approvel and not the mums.

Emmylynes cheeks turned a faint pink, she couldn't exactily deny that. But again, Lainie was only a year old and some odd months.

Gazing from Uncle Nik to her mummy, Lainie got on her knees again and crawled at top speed to her. Crawling was faster then walking, in her case. "Hmmmm?"

Rolling earth toned eyes towards the ceiling, because of that silly nickname, Em bent down to make it easier for her daughter to make eye contact. "Go ahead, but what are you forgetting?"

It took a moment, but the little one (with the help of grabbing her mums knee) pulled herself up, reaching upwards and motioned for the young woman to get abit closer and when she did Laih gave her a soppy kiss on the cheek. Causing Emmylyne to laugh, "Aw. Thankyou LaihLaih, your forgetting something else though too." She said, softly. Pulling from behind her back a small palm-sized stuffed boxer-dog animal, allowing the little one to take it. "Mimi! Vanuu maamaa,"

As Emmy nodded, her curls bounced at her shoulders. Giving a small 'Okay' when Nikolas picked up Lain and told them he'd be waiting downstairs, keeping an eye on the other kids. It surprised her he hadn't even asked where they were going today, since Lissy and Lydia had brought it up, but nonetheless she left that alone.

It only took a moment before Emmylyne realized she hadn't said hello or anything to Axel. But now, she was unsure if a hug or even peck would be alright, since no one 'knew' yet atleast.

DalekDeatheater · 12-27-2007, 06:27 AM

Monica sat on the edge of the bed, still a little tired last night was rough. She shook her head and try to wake up.

Nikelodeon · 12-27-2007, 06:43 AM

Getting himself ready too after being woken up Wyatt still didn't know what Lyne was talking about - since he hadn't been paying alot of attention when he was trying to tune her out and go back to sleep - but either way he was dressed. in jeans and a graphic T-shirt that was covered by a nice warm grey sweatshirt. Muttering something to himself, Wyatt got his second shoe on and went downstair's next into the kitchen/dining room where the two set's of ickly twin's were along with Nik and Lainie. "Morning."

DalekDeatheater · 12-27-2007, 06:47 AM

Monica pullde on her jeans and Wyatt's black hoodie and pulled on her socks and boots. She washed her face and pulled her hair back. She thundered down the stairs, Kissed Wyatt on the cheek and sat next to him. "Good morning."

Phoenix 8390 · 12-27-2007, 06:48 AM

"Merlin. Only nine? Then again, we did go to bed at the crack of dawn," Chloe chuckled as she finished up her hair. "I needa haircut." She had come to that conclusion just a few days previous when it kept getting in her eyes while her and Nikolas were on a quest to find a specific kind of dragon. "I'm thinkin'..a bit shorter...and maybe a bit spikey," she mused.

Jae jumped down the last three steps, landing on the floor and looking much like a cat. A light grin played on his lips as he walked silently into the kitchen. "Anyone know wha's for breakfast?" he asked Julian and Katie as he slid into a chair. Having absolutely no idea what had happened the night before, the seven year old was in a very bright mood. He had slept very deeply the night before and was quite well rested.

"Fireworks?" Axel chuckled. "Hey, I don't blame him. I'd wanna see a show in my own house any day," he chuckled as he walked out of the room. As the twins walked up to the door, he couldn't help but snicker. They were quite adorable. Once they left he looked to Emmy. "They really should meet Jae's little brother Liam. They're the same age. Boy, would Liam give them a run for their money." He nodded. Liam was..rambunctious. Not to mention he could get quite annoying too. Then again, that was only to his older brother when he was not cooperating.

As the two other adults began to chat about the young one, Chloe pulled her cousin into the end of the hallway by the door frame of an unknown room. "Spill." She stared intently at him, knowing full well that he knew what she wanted to talk about.

"This? Right now?" he half whispered as he pulled her into his and Nik's room. He knew this conversation would come up. That's just who Chloe was. The good thing about her was that he could trust her. He probably told her more than he had told anyone, which was actually not a compliment seeing as she had no idea about what he had gone through.

"Ax, you know you're gonna tell me anyway. I wanna know. I wanna...help..if at all possible." She put her hands up and shook them back and forth. she was a very animated person.

He chuckled lightly. "You're eagerness entices me Miss O'Callaghan," he joked. "Alright. I spilled everything to her last night, in the attic. There was a boggart...long story," he told her, shaking his head at the last part. "Anyway, I told her how I felt. I put myself out there and now I have to wait."

"Wait? For wha'? She loves you! Axel are you blind? I see the way she looks at you. You're not some ordinary person." Chloe had grabbed his arms and was now shaking them as she spoke. She was a very animated person.

"It's a bit more complicated than that Chlo. Ben just died. I want to make this as easy for her as possible. You can understand that, right?" He did want to make Emmylyne as comfortable as possible throughout this whole process. He did, after all, love her. Probably more than he could describe. It did comfort him though when she spoke.

Chloe nodded understandingly. "I understand. Tha' must be rough." She pursed her lips in thought then leaned against the wall. "I'm happy to see you like this. I mean, look at ya. You're practically glowin'. I neva' saw you act this way. She must really make you happy, huh?" She smiled, giving her cousin a tight hug.

Axel nodded, his cheeks turning a light shade of red, something that they rarely did. "She does Chlo, she really does." After four years of agony, he could finally see the silver lining and was eagerly awaiting it with open arms. "Let's get down to breakfast and see what Ems is cooking. Shall we?" he asked as he released her from the tight hug. He was actually quite astounded at how short the conversation had been. Usually Chloe needed to dig deeper. He hadn't wanted to go in that far though, so maybe she could read the expression on his face. You know what? Maybe she's psychic now. You never know. You're family never ceases to amaze you.

"We shall." And she was finally satisfied. The two walked out of the room to join the others, both in much higher spirits. "Alrigh' Em. Wha's fer breakfast?" she asked as she began to descend the stairs slowly, hoping that everyone would follow suit.

Axel dared a glance at Emmy, rubbing her arm slightly as he too began to climb down the stairs. It was obvious, he really was glowing. Don't ruin this for yourself. You can finally breathe properly.

D.A Forever · 12-27-2007, 08:28 AM

Nodding once more, She started down the stairs, gazing at her feet at first to watch her step and then took a side ways glance at Axel, causing a sweet smile to graze her face before looking down once more. He was one of the few things keeping her in a from thinking about things that most would be severely depressed about, but.. Emmy was never one of those people and never under any circumstances wanted to become one.

"That would be adorable, and somehow I doubt that Ax, you haven't even seen them get started, their behaving right now." Emmylyne halted at the kitchen enterance. Oh dear. The young man was playing hot potato with the younger twins, that wouldn't have been such a problem, if it were not with their shoes. "Nikolas. Have you lost it? Lissy, Lydia, get your shoes on please."

Going over to Kaitlynnh, She grabbed the brush and spray bottle. "Thankyou for being so very helpful for me, Katie." Ems praised, brushing out her sisters golden curls before spraying them then started bunching it, that and the spray was suppose to make her curls more curly, and neat for that matter.

"Here," Handing the seven year old a pale orange headband from the 'hair pretties', Emmy then had Lissy and Lydia sit up in chairs, while Nik helped buckle their shoes she combed out their blonde locks, putting both up in ponytails held by ribbons.

It had only taken about six minutes to accomplish getting that part done, the helping her sisters part. Quickly washing her hands very well with hot water and soap, the young woman sped around the kitchen; preparing breakfast. She was a natural in the kitchen, and around the house for that matter.

Ducking, as Nikolas had decided instead of possibly being run into or hit, and for sure being yelled at, He had pulled his wand from his back pocket, levitating the juice containers from the fridge right after the cups.

"Nikolas!" Emmylyne scowled, quickly stopping what she was doing for a moment to move Lainie out of the way of juice that was nearly spilt. "Nikolas, remind me never to let you watch my children. Ever." She said, teasingly. Having Lainie go back to the table with afew of her toys.

Nikolas had, of course, caught something in her words. Something definitally not right in his head. Children? That wasn't 'Child' that meant more then one kid. "Emmylyne." He said, turning a deathly serious gaze on her, Greyish brown eyes showing suspicion. "What do you mean by that? You said Children. Not Child," Was there a possibility..? "Your..not, are you? Emmylyne.." There was a slight warning in his tone, Nik became rather stiff; almost ignoring everyone else in the room.

He may have been the younger one but he sure didn't look it and he sure didn't act it; no matter how much that annoyed Em.

Emmylyne silently cursed herself, again. She too had taken notice to her mistake in words. She meant it future wise, nonetheless that wasn't exactily the best to be even thinking about at this moment and especially not something to say outloud.

Before she had even the slightest chance to claim she had made a mistake in grammer choices, Nikolas had jumped to assumptions.

With cheeks warming, Emmy shook her head to brush it off and continued her cooking. "I made a small mistake in my choice of words, so sorry Nik. Child; happy?" She asked, shortly. Feeling quite silly that this had even come up.

Her mouth came open slightly, deeply shocked and lost concentration, along with the egg in her hand which landed on the title with a 'SPLAT'. Her poor cheeks turned even brighter, closing her eyes tightly the twenty one year old took a long breath. "No." She murmured loud enough.

Earth toned eyes fluttering open again after a moment and she attempted to get back to what she had been doing before hand, and clean up the small mess she'd made on the floor.

"Are you sur-"

"Nikolas. I said No the first time." She hissed, not even letting him finish the sentance. Emmy was furious, it was none of his business or concern in the first place. And she had slipped up on her choice of words, do to fogginess of her imagination possibly getting away without her.

Calming as much as possible, Emmylyne cleaned the mess and started sturring the egg batter and poured abunch of cinnimon into it before adding bed, and then into the pan one by one. Giving the smallest smile as she glanced to the kids waiting at the table. "French toast is almost ready.." She announced.

Still, avoiding everyones gaze but the little kids'. If she knew it wasn't hopeless, She would have had a loooong talk with her brother, later. but it was no use and she knew it. How he could be so paranoid over her was beyond her.

Looking puzzledly from Emmy to Nik to Emmy to Nik and back again, Kaitlynnh had the feeling something was wrong. Turning a expression to show her feelings, to Julian, He merely shrugged uncertaintely.

Phoenix 8390 · 12-27-2007, 05:27 PM

"We'll see about that," Axel chuckled. Maybe she was right. Maybe his cousin wasn't as bad as her little twin sisters. He shrugged and followed her down the stairs. A few of the children were already up and ready, Jae being one of them. He shot him a glare, but that quickly turned into a smile.

"Not still mad at me are you?" Jae chuckled, kneeling on his chair and holding onto the back of it. Obviously he was referring to when he dove into Axel's stomach, knee first.

"How could I stay mad at you bah-tee? Better me than your mother anyway," he chuckled. Merlin, that was true. Jae's mom was about five or six months pregnant, and with twins. Chloe was absolutely ecstatic.

"Oh yes! 'Ow's your motha' Jae?" Chloe squealed, jumping to the boys side. Yes, she would probably end up babysitting the lot of her kids. She was one of those people who would probably have a bakers dozen of children, but first she needed a 'mate'. Some have come and go, but Axel, Finn, and even Seamus sometimes, scared them away.

Finally catching the conversation going on between Emmylyne and Nikolas, Axel was all ears. Pregnant? That can't be possible. But then again, she was starting to get redder and redder as she spoke. No matter how much he convinced himself that she was not, there was a slight pit in his stomach that was telling him otherwise. Don't put yourself through this right now. Don't go back, it's not time.

Maybe this was just an overreaction? Chloe would know Nik better than him. He stole a glance at her, but she seemed to be wrapped up in a conversation with Jae. Dammit Chloe! The one time you don't pay attention! Sighing slightly, he moved to the other end of the table and sat down. He finally realized exactly how tired he was. After all, they hadn't gone to bed until almost three in the morning.

Finally coming back to reality, Chloe skipped to an open chair and plopped down. "Wha's on the agenda today loves?" she asked briskly. As a matter of fact, she had been listening to the conversation between Emmy and Nik. The only reason she didn't act like it was because she did not want Axel to worry. Which was probably too late now just by the look on his face. She patted his shoulder slightly and gave him a reassuring look before pouring herself a glass of juice and taking a swig.

Jae too poured himself some juice and took a long drink from it. Like that kid needed anymore sugar. "When can we go to one-a Finn's games next?" Translation: Axel, I want you to take me to one of our cousins games because I haven't seen you in practically four years and Chloe, you make it fun so you're coming along as well.

Axel shrugged, glad to shift the conversation. "We'll have to look at the schedule. Maybe he's playin' somewhere in Ireland or Spain soon," he said with a nod. He actually was quite anxious to see his cousin play Gaelic Football. He hadn't seen him play in four years, roughly while they were still in school, and now he was on a professional traveling team. He must be good then, no?

Chloe nodded with excitement. "I'll see if I can get a schedule from me mum," she said with a nod. Finn was Chloe's younger brother and she couldn't be more proud of him. Next was Seamus, a Ministry quitter. He was now playing professional Lacrosse. Lastly, but surely not least, was her little sister Hannah who was Valencia's age. She was still in school and training to be a healer. If someone looked at Hannah and Chloe while they were standing next to each other, they'd say that Hannah was a mini version of her sister.

Axel nodded. "We'll have to go see Seamus too," he chuckled as he poked Jae lightly in the ribs.

"Oh so he did take that job?"

"Precisely. And I couldn't be more proud of my brother."

MUSTANG SALLY · 12-27-2007, 05:39 PM

Danny finally waken up foun that he was bac in his bunk. He must of fallen asleep in Chloe's arms last night, cause he didnt remember going back to bed. He climbed out of he bunk and began changing his clothes. His little legs were placed into blue jeans and a soccer t-shirt was put on over his torso. He then walked into the bathroom and brushed his teeth.

When he walked out of the bathroom, he noticed people were already going down the stairs. He followed and took the steps slowly agian. When he walked into the kitchen, he smelled food. Rubbing his eyes sleeply, he took a seat at the table.

Not getting that much sleep last night, the sx year olds eyes were coated with sleepyess. But he was begining to wake up as the smell of food grew stronger.

D.A Forever · 12-27-2007, 06:53 PM

As she continued her cooking, Emmylyne scowled and turned her gaze back to what she was suppose to be paying attention to as Nikolas had gotten up from the table and left. From past experience, She knew he was going for a small walk outside.

Cannot believe him.. Her cheeks were still rather red, the blush hadn't faded at all really. What if Chloe and Axel had taken his assumption to heart? there was no possible way she could have been and she definitally wasn't. The young women was actually upset about this but hid it really well behind a small smile, while putting french toast on plates that surrounded her on the counters.

Carrying four plates with ease, Emmy went to place them infront of each Danny, Jae, Juls and Katie but had to halt for a short second as the other twins ran past; of course, chasing eachother.

"Here you are kiddos." She said sweetly, placing their food down seperately infront of them and returned to the kitchen to grab the others. "Lissy, Lydia take your seats."

Going around to place their plates infront of them, She continued to Chloe, and then Axel. "Nik's just weirding out, I can promise you I'm not expecting. Ax," Emmylyne reassured, barely high enough to be considered a whisper once she was close enough for him to hear. And let her lips graze his cheek slightly, not thinking anything of it since she use to do that everyonce in a while to both him and Ben as a teenage girl.

Picking Lainie up on her way with a plastic plate of cut up breakfast, Ems set her up in the highchair to eat and let her be after giving her a bottle of milk. "Alright then.." She spoke up, once making sure she'd given everyone their french toast. "I had an idea, Since Gran is out shopping today, and we have two vans here. Why not go somewhere?"

Raising her hand excitedly, Kaitlynnh sat up more and swallowed what she was chewing. "Emmy suggested the zoo, or the activites center or the park!" She beamed, nodding.

"Its just a thought, though." The young women spoke up once more, gazing around to see any reactions.

DalekDeatheater · 12-27-2007, 07:12 PM

Monica took a bite of her french Toast. "This is good Emmy, it reminds me of home." She smiled. "Hery that sounds like fun!" Monica smiled.

Phoenix 8390 · 12-27-2007, 11:51 PM

Axel nodded and smiled at Emmy. "Thank the lord," he chuckled. He too began to eat his french toast with a satisfied smile on his face. "Wow Em, this is really good," he complimented as he held up a fork full of the cinnamon bread. He was quite relieved that she had reassured him of her not expecting. The next time she was expecting he hoped it would be hi-Stop! Don't jinx it!

Chloe laughed lightly as she took a bite of her breakfast. "Oh Em I knew you weren't. It's this one that was weirdin' out," she chuckled, pointing to Axel. As the talk of what they should do that day began, she couldn't help but get excited. Deciding to wait to voice her opinion after the children, she took a long drink of her juice.

"Oh let's go to the zoo! I wanna see the lions! Grrrr!" Jae said happily, showing his teeth as he imitated the large feline. His mother had taken him and his younger brother to the zoo before, but Liam had been afraid of the lions. Those were Jae's favorite animals, aside from dragons of course.

Axel chuckled. "I swear, that's gonna be his patronus when he gets older. He'll take after me," he said proudly. Since he was in school, Axel had practiced over and over again to produce a patronus charm. It had always resembled some sort of large feline, but finally after years of work it finally took its form as a lion.

Chloe laughed lightly, thinking of when she had to learn to produce a patronus. "Those were the good 'ol days, yeah? Hey Ems, Nik wha' are your patronus'?" she wondered. "Ya know mine Ax. A red fox, just like me. Sly," she giggled. At least the image mirrored her looks, and her personality.

"I hope mines a dragon!" Jae said enthusiastically. Little did he know that he might just get his wish. Then again, he might not.

"Vee's already got the looks of a wolf. And Dusty...my wonderful Dusty is none other than a weasel. Can you believe him? I can't believe that my parents produced such a strange child," he laughed. His brother was no doubt one of the most mischievous people he had ever met. Sometimes his slyness helped out.

Chloe laughed. "You're already seein' signs of a weasel? I can believe tha' though. He's very sneaky." She then bit her lip in thought. "Why do you suppose Vee has a wolf?"

Axel shrugged. "Dunno. Wolves are strong, maybe that's why." His sister was a very strong person so if wolves were the same, her patronus fit her to a tee.

"I want one!"

"Give it time. You've got to mature first. Then it'll just happen."

"Amen."

D.A Forever · 12-28-2007, 02:01 AM

Taking a seat near the highchair (To keep a close eye on her daughter and the sticky goodness) Emmylyne poured herself a glass of orange juice, taking a sip as she casted a glance at Axel. Although it could have been taken wrong, she understood what both he and Chloe meant. She too was greatful, that would have only caused things to be even more complicated.

"Thankyou," She responded to the compliments with a sweet smile. One thing she worked just as hard with as her healer training and nurse job, was cooking. All of which she loved, almost as much as her family and friends.

Setting her glass down upon the table, carefully. Giggling lightly at the thought of her friends patronus, "A red fox does fit your appearance well, though, sly I'm not so sure of but if you say so.."

"Oh, Nik's patronus is some sort of serpent. Mine's a snowy owl. Regina's is a swan..Conner's was an elephant. And Savannah just recently sent a letter, telling me they had practiced patronus' and hers takes the same form as Conner's, though a baby form. No surprise at all," Emmylyne answered, counting them off her fingers that her hazel eyes were fixed on for those moments.

Getting quite excited, about both the talk of ghosty protector things, and the trip to the zoo, Kaitlynnh bounced up and down on her knees she sat on. "Ohh! What will mine be? Huh?" She asked, nearly squealing. The seven year old didn't know how someone could determine their patronus, so she wanted someone else to for her.

Grinning widely, Julian nodded at the suggestion of the zoo. Once swallowing a piece of french toast, he boy laughed, looking amusedly to Jae.

Then looked around, asking: "Does patronus' normally take shape of someone else in the family that already has it?" when the thought accured. Emmy had said Conner and Savannah shared the same animal, and Axel said he thought himself and Jae would. "Either way, what would mine be?" His second question came after his twin sisters. Turning next to Katie, "I think yours will be a otter!" Otters, always had to be the center of attention in anyway they could. Juls believed that sounded right, for Kaitlynnh.

It only took a moment, for her to think about Katie and Juls future patronus'. Folding her hands in her lap, "I think Kaitlynnh's will be a horse, and Julian's a Lynx." Emmy didn't say why she thought this, feeling that it would be funner to leave that as a mystery for them to figure out in time.

Katie shook her head in protest of Julians idea, "Nooo. It wouldn't be a otter, your just being mean. If mines a otter then yours will be a boar!" She said, fixing her headband to hold back curls again. A boar, simply because they were ugly.

Then, smiling abit. She liked her older sisters idea of the ghosty thing belonging to her, better. "Okay. I'll like that,"

Looking to Lydia, whom was of course listening but staying quiet, Lissy then opened her mouth, turning back to face everyone. "Wha will awe's be?"

Taking a quick drink from her own juice, Lydia leanned forwards and put her cup down. "Yeshh. the zoo, pwease." She spoke up, quietly, and continued to eat.

Emmylyne frowned slightly at the mention of wolves, but shrugged that tense feeling off; reminding herself there was none around. From all she had heard, seem and remembered from so long ago, neither Valencia's or Dusty's patronus' surprised her. They both sounded just right, perfect for them.

"Uhm.." She started, turning a sideways glance at Lis and Ly, "I'm really not sure about you two. I think it may be too soon to guess, I'm probably wrong about Katie and Julian's anyways. But its always fun to guess," Truthfully, Emmylyne was actually sure of herself with the patronus' she had guessed but didn't want to make the five year olds abit down or anything. "Some kind of birds maybe, like me and Reggy."

"Alright, as long as everyone else agrees, to the zoo we'll go. Once everyones done and washed their hands," She added, to her soft-spoken little sister.

Phoenix 8390 · 12-28-2007, 06:05 AM

Chloe laughed lightly. "I know everythin' goin' on in my family at this very moment. And you don't call me sneaky Em," she chuckled. She was quite fond of her fox and wouldn't trade it for the world. The other patronus' in her family fit them quite well also. "Oh! Finn is a mountain lion."

"I swear that's what he looks like when he plays football," Axel laughed. Finn was insane on a field. One time Axel had seen someone actually run away from him in fear that he might take them out. He ended up winning that game with a goal.

Jae thought about Julian's question and suddenly he was thinking the very same thing. Would he really take the form that his cousin had as well? He liked the idea, but he also liked having one that was completely his own. "I like lions, but wha' if I'm a tiger?" he chuckled.

Axel laughed. "Then you'd be totally unique, at least in our family. That was a good question Jules," he pointed out. He had never actually thought of that. He had just said the words and out popped a silver lion. It was quite ferocious too. He remembered that he had scared one his fellow classmates with it one day. He laughed lightly at the memory then snapped back into reality.

"Alrigh', I think the zoo sounds lovely. Everyone agree?" Chloe asked, clapping her hands together. After finishing her breakfast she placed the plate in the sink then tapped it lightly with her wand; it began cleaning itself. Thank the lord for magic.

As his cousin spoke, Jae finished up his breakfast then placed his plate into the sink as well, watching closely as it went into the cycle to be cleaned. He was utterly fascinated by magic and couldn't wait until he was at school. "I agree," he said with an enthusiastic nod. He washed his hands quickly then sat back down next to Axel.

Axel too stood up, but after he deposited his dishes into the sink he walked quietly upstairs. Reaching his room, he sat on the end of his bed and sighed as he placed his elbows on his knees and his face in his hands. He felt emotionally drained, yet he was surprisingly upbeat. His emotions had gone through so much it seemed that his body had no idea what it wanted to feel.

Standing up, he began to pace around the room slowly, trying to collect his thoughts. The only thing he wanted was for Emmy to be happy, even if that meant sacrificing his own happiness. Then again, he felt a new wind coming around. She said she needed time, but she never declined him. He had definitely gotten the feeling that in no time they'd be an 'item'. He could hardly wait he was practically bouncing off the walls, of course not literally.

"D'you think the twins will have identical patronus'?" Chloe asked Nik and Emmy as she gazed at the two girls. They were quite adorable, but when Nik talked about them she couldn't help but laugh. She actually wondered if that ever happened to twins, at least identical ones. Katie and Julian were as different as night and day, in her opinion.

D.A Forever · 12-28-2007, 07:17 AM

Picking up the empty dishes, Emmylyne put the mess all in the sink and waved her wand; having it all self-clean while she helped the younger kids abit.

"Run along and wash your hands, then get your coats on. Katie, I'd really prefer you to change.. your not even wearring tights with your skirt," Emmy said, guiding Julian out of his chair so he didn't accidentally touch anything with his messy hands and then did the same for Kaitlynnh, though noticed she was sure to be cold when they were out. But her skirt really wasn't the kind, or color, you'd wear tights with so instead Em let her slide, if she didn't want to change she wasn't going to force her.

Seeing as Nikolas was helping Lissy and Lydia, the young woman continued by going over to her daughter, getting a wet washclothe first to wipe up her sticky face and hands. "Zoooooooooooo!" Came an excited Lainie, clapping her damped hands together as her mum picked her up and set her back down, safely on the floor.

Picking each Lissy and Lydia up and out of their seats, directing them in the direction of the bathroom to wash their hands, Nikolas pushed the chairs into the table and went around, doing so with each. "Lydia and Lissy?" Nik asked, looking up and over to Chloe as he straightened up. "Yeah, I'd be in shock if they weren't. The only thing even the tiniest bit different from them is Lydia is the slightest bit innocent. Where as Lissy, is definitally not."

"Nikolas, I'm trusting you can keep an eye on Laih? Shes already cleaned up and ready, I've got to get her diaper bag. Just.. don't get anything out of the fridge, I want her nice and dry like I left her." Emmylyne said, kissing the top of Lainie's head, and left her to her adventuring on two knees and two hands.

Nik had to admit, he was surprised Em wasn't still angry with him, but was glad too. Giving a short nod, he glanced down at the child. Crawling away.. Good merlin, his sister better not have wanted him to do that. "Its a good thing she didn't try to harm me, Right?" He asked, turning brownish grey eyes back on Chloe with eyebrows raised. The young man could never tell anymore.

Quietly taking each step one by one, Emmylyne made it to her room in seconds. Automatically grabbing the baby bag, and again, turned on her heels from the room. Lainie was already completely ready; shoes and sweater in all.

Of course, there was another side to her wanting to go upstairs, when she perfectly well could have accio'd the bag downstairs. Axel had come up here, and this was possibly the one chance she had to talk to him on their own.

Coming silently to a stop, leanning slightly against the doorframe as she watched him pacing back and forth, Emmy smiled softly. Resisting the urge to giggle, for old times sake.

Coming to her senses again, Emmylyne shifted and straightened herself up abit, arms still crossed comfortably. "Could we talk, Please?" Emmy asked, softly as not to startle him. She was still unsure about exactily what to say, or how to put it, but now was just as good of a time as any.

Phoenix 8390 · 12-28-2007, 05:42 PM

After everyone began to get themselves together, Jae too jumped up and went to grab his coat. It was a heavy green flannel coat that went perfectly with his jersey. He then sat back down and kicked his legs back and forth as they dangled from the chair he was sitting on.

"Nice jacket Jae," Chloe complimented as she sat beside him. "More innocent?" she chuckled as Nik spoke. "'Ow you tell them apart is beyond me." She looked at the twins and squinted, as if that would help her decide which was which. "Impossible," was her conclusion.

Honey colored eyes met Nik's brownish grey ones as she was attempting to stifle her laughs. "It's always a good thing someone doesn't try to hurt you Nik. Like it's always a good thing when a dragon doesn't try to take your 'ead off with its tail." She gave a comparison, although she really was just joking around.

Jae jumped down from his chair and sat in front of Lainie. "Might as well get used to lil' kids eh?" he said shrugging his shoulders. His mother was pregnant with twins and Jae would be her primary help while their father was off at work and Liam was, well, hanging off Jae's arm. He was quite attached to his brother.

"Good idea Jae," Chloe chuckled as she crossed her legs. "I can't wait for your mum to have the babies. Don't worry, I'll come 'elp you out," she said with a wink. "I can't wait! A boy and a girl!" she squealed. She was probably more excited than anyone in that family.

Maybe you should write to Vee? No, she's only sixteen. Yeah, but sometimes she's smarter than you. Just write to see how she's doing. You know she'll end up asking you about your life anyway. As he paced he thought this through. He did want to speak with his little sister, but he wasn't exactly sure what to say. Maybe he just wanted her to make him feel sane again.

Axel suddenly stopped pacing as he heard a small voice, a voice he had hoped to hear. Turning to face her, his face broke out into a huge smile. "Of course," he said, motioning for her to come in with his arms. What could this be about? Was she worried about him because he came up here? He could have easily been up here just to grab his jacket. She would have known though seeing as his jacket was downstairs with everyone else's.

"Erm..anything special you wanted to talk about?" He was now leaning up against the wall, but his leg was moving slightly back and forth. Apparently he was antsy. Then again, who wouldn't be at a time like this? He ran a hand through his messy brown hair, realizing exactly how messy it was. "Why are you letting me walk around like this?" he joked, chuckling lightly and trying to push his hair down. No use. He'd have to wet it or something.

Since she was the one who came to him Axel was going to let her talk first. Another good reason for that was that he had no idea what she wanted to say. He was hoping it was something good, but with his luck, he was expecting the worst. His sea green eyes moved across her face as if trying to read exactly what she would say. He had never been able to do that though so it was useless. She was too good at hiding her feelings. Either that or he was terrible at reading them.

MUSTANG SALLY · 12-28-2007, 06:27 PM

Danny had resorted to eating his french toast quietly. It wasnt that he felt out or anything, he was just a little to sleepy to talk. He loved the taste of the food as he chowed down on it. He knew Emmy knew how to cook, but he never knew how delicious her cooking could be.

Hearing them talk about going to the zoo, his head poped up. He had never been to the zoo before. Benny had once told him about going to the zoo with his public school when he was eight. Every since then, Danny had been wanting to see the monkeys and the hippos.

He cleaned the food off his plate and followed after Jae and his cousins to put on a coat. Grabbing the tree bark colored coat, he set it on his shoulder before turning to Jae. "Are we really going to see monkeys? And Hippos? And lions?" he asked, enthusiam coating his chocolate colored eyes.

DalekDeatheater · 12-29-2007, 06:48 AM

Monica turned her head when Conner's patronus was mentioned, it reminded her of everything painful that had happend recently. "Mine is a scruffy dog." She said. She did not know what she was actually talking about her Uncle's Animagus form.

Ashleigh came down carring Emmy who was dressed in a cute little purple sweatsuit. "Em is that French toast I smell? It smells wonderful!" She took some and ate while she fed her daughter. "Ooh the Zoo does sound fun!" She smiled.

Baby Emmy reached out sticky hands for her Auntie Emmy. "EMMMMMEEEEE"

D.A Forever · 12-29-2007, 07:40 AM

Leaving the baby bag by the doorframe, Emmylyne stepped further into the room. Firstly debating on if she should close the door or not, just to be sure no prying ears heard anything before they should; the young woman watched him with the slightest bit of amusement. It was obvious, atleast to her, that he was anxious.

Brushing off his comment, at first, She shrugged slightly at his joke; Her tone never leaving its soft level as she said: "I've never been able tell any of you boys what to do; I gave up after seven years of trying." After a thought, She frowned ever so slightly, adding: "Elissa too, actually." Yep, her efforts were useless with the group. After so long she had learned, it was best to just leave things alone and let them go.

Anyways.. "Uhm.. Okay, bear with me, I'm not really sure of how I should say what I'm going too." Emmylyne started, rather nervously approaching Axel closer. "I have..obviously been thinking, quite alot really. Part of me seys I need to wait, give everything time..and another part of me is saying wait for what? I tried figuring that out myself actually. Without that letter..I already knew, I knew the day it had happened sometime in the summer. When something like that happens to someone- a loved one, you know, you feel it. The letter had made me cry.. yes, because I guess there was that little hope I had saying maybe my instincts were wrong."

Pausing briefly, The twentyone year old shifted her gaze from the carpet near her right foor. Fixing her hazel eyes on his Sea green ones. "One thing, I'll admit, that was effecting my discision was I didn't know nor want to know what everyone's reactons would be, What they would say.. Family, Friends..though most I'm sure would be understanding, I was still scared. I was always suppose to be the responsible one, the example for the younger kid's. And, I definitally haven't been perfect."

"But, I also have a little voice- No, actually very loud voice, that keeps telling me it doesn't matter what anyone else thinks, only what I do. And..I think, I don't want to make you wait. It's unfair to you, of all people. Lainie..Will need time to adjust to you being around alot more since you are basically a stranger to her, I didn't say anything to her about Benjamin and I don't think it's wise to. She's only a baby, no matter how much intelligent that little girl is I don't think she would understand right now. All Laih know's is Benji has been gone for quite sometime now, and it hasn't seemed to fazed her so much since then." Emmy finished quietly. To anyone who knew her as a child, wouldn't have to think twice about the voice in her mind. It had taken Elissa nearly fifteen years but finally that had stuck.

As a teenage girl, and even younger, She had always tried living up to everything that was expected of her, from family, to friends, to teachers and so many more. Em had always been concerned with what everyone thought of her, especially while at beauxbatons or any place with people her age. Elissa, her very best girl friend since childhood, was the very exact opposite. Lis had always tried being the outcast, anything but what everyone else was. Though, most of the time that never came up because if they hadn't been studying, she was working on her journalism. It took forever in a day to pry her away and actually do something for the fun of it, after they had gotten into their teenage years.

Nikolas grinned slightly, "No one ever said I could. This, is how you tell them apart-" Turning his head in the direction of the hall door, He called: "Lydia, Come here really fast." And waited for his littlest sisters arrival.

Quietly stepping back into the kitchen, while still fidgetting with her plum purple jacket that she had just gotten one. "Yesh?"

Lydia's mirror entered right after, identical plum colored coat on as well.

Lissy clung onto Julians neck, trying not to choke him in the piggyback ride she had demanded. "Can we goooo noooow?"

Stopping in her crawl, Lainie gazed up to see who had sat in her way. A silly smile appeared on her innocent face, and the little one patted the boys foot gently before plopping onto her bottom.

Pulling her orange/red hoodie sweatshirt on over her head as she followed everyone back into the dining room, Kaitlynnh huffed faintly to herself; putting her headband back in again to move curls from her face and continued into the kitchen, automatically climbing onto the counter where the cookie jar was after fixing her hair.

Julian groaned, shifting Lissy to get her blonde ponytail from hanging over his face by the angle she was at and paused, bouncing her up on his back more so she didn't slip and sufficate him.

"Yep, and many more Dan. Like.. bugs, their's a bug musaum, and elephants and bears and birds and loads more," He answered, excitement filled his voice. Covering the annoyance he felt.

Letting out an 'oaof' when she was bounced, Lissy brushed her hair back and then wrapped her arms back around her brother. "I would watch out, She might bite!" The five year old said, motioning abruptly to Jae with Lainie. A mischivious expression lingering.

Lydia scowled, turning with a swift look at Lis. "Wissy stop that! Wainie does not, she isn't a dog." The girl defended her neice, taking notice that Katie was getting cookies and raised her hand. "I want ooone."

Shrugging, Nikolas said, "Not so true, people are so much different from Drangon's. If a dragon tries to injure you, you should know why." If you worked with dragon tried to hurt someone and the person didn't know why, there was a BIG problem there.

"Twins can be a handleful you know," He added to Chloe, whom seemed so excited about the idea. He himself didn't see children in his future, much unlike his sisters. Nikolas wasn't so into the idea.

"Ehm, what are you doing? Did Emmy say you guys could have cookies at.. ohh ten in the morning?" Nik asked, eying Katie whom nodded. "Alright then.. give afew to everyone," Looking next to Ashleigh and Little Emmy, Nik then spoke up again after the child's squeal. "Emmy'll be back, she had to get Lainie's baby bag, I assume."

Phoenix 8390 · 12-29-2007, 05:41 PM

Axel watched Emmylyne's every movement as she began speaking. He wondered if this was all her thoughts just pouring out of her mouth like water. Maybe she really did want to tell him these things. "Well that's true, but you could have at least warned me about my hair," he laughed while still attempting to push it down. It was a losing battle. In the end, he grabbed a black ski cap from his bag and placed it over his head.

He nodded understandingly, especially when she spoke about Lainie. The last thing he wanted to be was the guy that 'broke her parents up'. Even though that wasn't the case, he still wasn't sure if Lainie would grow up to think that. Emmy would have to explain it to her eventually, but she still needed to get used to him, that was a given. He was sure that once he was around her more, Lainie would get better acquainted with him and Axel might learn to love her as his own daughter. That was actually what he was hoping for.

His sea green eyes locked with her earth tone ones. The thing he was most happy about was that it sounded like she wasn't going to make him wait. To be honest, he didn't care if he had to wait, as long as he had her word that they'd be together he'd be fine. This was just icing on the cake for him. Now it was his turn to let his little voice be heard.

Axel placed his hands on her upper arms and squeezed lightly. "Don't listen to everyone else. Who cares what they think? Listen to your heart Em. What is it telling you?" He placed his hand on the left side of his chest, over his heart, as he spoke. "That's what I've always like about Elissa. She never cared what anybody thought. She was unique, never running with the crowd. Maybe that's why Finn was so head over heels for her, I dunno." He paused only to look at her more.

"I'm not sure what you're feeling right now, or if you're even going to tell me, but I do know that I love you. If you wanna wait, I'll wait. If you wanna be gung-ho right now, let's. Whatever you decide, I'll be there," he said sweetly. "Hell, I've been waiting almost eleven years, what's a couple more?" Yeah, that joke didn't go so well in his body. His stomach contorted, but he held the pain in. Dammit, you're in trouble aren't you?

Shaking that awful feeling away, he looked back into her eyes again. "I love you Emmylyne and i have for pretty much my whole life. If I've ever believed in love at first sight, I'm totally backing it up right now. The moment I saw you...I knew. And that was the end of my dating career. I mean, you never saw me with any other girls, did you?" He laughed weakly, but it was completely obvious that he was still amazed that she felt the same way about him.

As Nik called one of the twins in, Chloe couldn't help but laugh. "I guess that's one way." She moved across the room to the closet to grab a bright orange jacket. it clashed with her hair brilliantly, seeing as red was a form of orange.

Jae smiled at Danny. "Of course Dan. Any animal ya can think of, we're goin' to see it today," he said with a smile. He was extremely excited to be going to the zoo. He hadn't gone in quite sometime, seeing as his mother was pregnant. But his dad had promised to bring them as soon as he could get sometime off work. Jae was holding him to his word.

Looking up to one of the twins, Jae's mouth curled into a grin. "I think I can handle it," he chuckled, motioning to Lainie. He grabbed one of her toys off the floor and placed it in front of her. He figured he needed to get better with babies. His face then screwed up slightly as his twilight blue eyes looked to Monica. "You can already tell wha' you're patronus is? Vee couldn't tell until this year, and well...we're just guessin' with Dusty right now," he said with a slight shrug. The only reason he was asking was because Vee was older than Monica so he wasn't exactly sure.

Chloe nodded in agreement. "Tha's a very good point Nikolas," she said with a smile. She absolutely loved working with dragons. Since she was just a little child, much like Jae, she had always read books about dragons. Finally, the little girl's dreams became reality.

She then shrugged. "I don't care. I'm more of a kid person than you though, rememba'?" she laughed, nudging him lightly as she fixed her coat. Her aunt was due in a couple months and she could hardly wait until there were two babies in the family. She was especially excited about the girl. They hadn't had a baby girl in the family in quite some time.

Chloe couldn't help but giggle after she had heard Jae talk. He was quite smart for being only a seven year old.

*Nordic Witch* · 12-29-2007, 06:21 PM

Teresa woke up late not yet ready for another day of mayhem and madness. Yawning widely she rolled out of bed to get dressed. She put on a pair of blue jeans, a plain white t-shirt and over that a Hello Kitty sweater before going down to breakfast. Pushing open the kitchen she called out a little too brightly "Morning everyone! What's for breakfast? Are we going somewhere today?"
OCC: Sorry for not posting in a while.. I'm back now though.

DalekDeatheater · 12-29-2007, 07:22 PM

Monica smiled. "Morning to you too Ter-Bear, you should taste the French toast that Em Made. It tastes like home!"

Ashleigh Smiled at her young niece. "Goodmorning love. How yould you like to go to the Zoo later?" she asked Teri. "Excelsior, will you go to my room and grab Emmy's Diaper bag and my purse for me?" She asked her nephew while she tried to clean the syrup frpm her sticky, squirming daughter.

Baby Emmy squealed as her cousin came in. "Te-Te!" She called.

MUSTANG SALLY · 12-29-2007, 09:01 PM

Danny's eyes lit up as he heard their was a bug museum. He then grined when Jae said they would see any animal. He couldnt wait to go now. His stomach was bubbling with excitment.

Walking to the front door, he sat down in the middle of the floor and began putting on his brown checkered vans. They were laces, so he began tying them very slowly. "One bunny ear...two bunny ears...tie them together...and now we can go anywheres." Danny recited the saying his dad had taught him when he was still learning how to tie his shoes.

He then got up from the ground and moved his sandy brown hair from his eyes. He couldnt wait to get there. Wondering what they would see first, he walked over to his cousin Nik and looked up. "When are we going Niky?" he asked, anticipation coated his brown eyes.

D.A Forever · 12-30-2007, 01:07 AM

"Well, for next time I know then. Now don't I?" Emmylyne asked, playful cheekiness found it's way into her voice but her soft tone never moved levels.

Slowly her eyes had drifted off towards the window, gazing out across the 'acient' tree she and her friends had always played on as kids. Where it had either been Axel, or Benji to break their arm from falling.. Where Finn had gotten the ball stuck.. Where she had learned to climb, to prove herself and not give up.. Where Elissa had found peace, for the most part.

Feeling him gently squeeze near her shoulders, brought her back to earth. Warm tingles worked through, as did reality after another moment. "Elissa was definitally..my exact opposite, a dear friend that would keep my head in check when it needed to be." If that made any sense. It probably would have been better just to say Lis had always kept her on planet earth; when things got bad..or too good to be true. She had always been there, and visaversa.

Noticing that she was definitally avoiding his question, Emmylyne stayed silent and just listened for the timebeing.

After he had finished, Emmy then added to something he had said much prior to the rest; just to get it out of the way since she didn't want to forget. "You know..Back when school had started, at the begining of the year, somehow when we were studying we had gotten onto the subject of Finn, and Elissa had insisted it wasn't her he cared so much for- that it was the chase of it, trying to have something no one else could. According to her, I believe that was our.. sixth year, or fifth maybe..Erm, Fourth? I'm not sure anymore."

Letting another several moments pass, Emmylyne bit her lower lip slightly. Finally deciding to let the boy- erm, young man, off his anxious drop or whatever you could call it.

"Nope, I don't remember so.. I remember girls going after you, and the two other mischief makers. But you seemed more.. different, as if you had better things in mind then girls." She responded slowly, recalling a memory or two.

Certain of her next words, Ems Brownish green hazel eyes traveled back to Axel's face. Having a rather difficult time pushing childhood thoughts, memories, and times away to think clearly and come back to the present. "My heart, is telling me that I need to trust it more then I have in the past." She didn't elaborate that, but continued confidently. "A couple more years? I'm not going to torture you. I couldn't do that even if I was unsure, I would have to make a discission..and I already have."

"I don't want to live in the past. I don't want to wait years, It's complicated and always has been. Our whole group was and still is complicated, that's just how thing's worked. It'll work out like always, if this wasn't meant to happen it wouldn't be. I love you too, Axel." Emmy had said all she needed to, or thought. For the timebeing atleast. Glancing down at her boots, as she nervously waited for any sign of .. any emotion, reaction, anything she could read, The young woman lifted her head, shaking a curl from her eyes.

"Yeah, easiest. Yet still if they want, they can confuse anyone. But that would mean the two would have to agree and work together long enough.." Nikolas shook his head. That idea so far was impossible, maybe when they were abit older they would be able to trick people.. or atleast not yell at eachother using their names.

"Ahh yes, that slips my mind when I think of you, with Dragons."

"Not later," Nik corrected Ashleigh, abruptly. Turning a gentle glance on Teresa. "Emmylyne made french toast, your place is on the counter kiddo. And once she get's downstairs we're suppose to be leaving for the zoo."

Glancing from the boy, to the toy he set infront of her, Lainie titled her head to the side slightly. Reaching a little hand out, the little one grabbed the pink kangaroo then placed it towards Jae. Letting a coo sound escape, mumbling something in baby language.

After getting a handful of cookies, just enough, Kaitlynnh handed out one to each of everybody. Munching on her own, afterwards.

"Can we go now? Atleast wait in the yard outfront? And who's the two drivers..? Emmzie and who?" Question after question rolled from the young girls mouth after each bite until the peanut butter cookie was gone.

"As soon as Emmy find's her way back from wherever she got lost at," The young man said, grinning abit down at Danny. At Kaitlynnh's question, Nik gave Chloe a look as if to ask if they should do that or not. Again, he wasn't quite that confident while watching many rugrats.

Phoenix 8390 · 12-30-2007, 02:23 AM

Axel chuckled, leaning his head back slightly. "Elissa was extremely unique. She was your exact opposite now that I think about it," he mused. He had always been glad to be friends with her, seeing as she usually made any situation more interesting, especially when Finn was around. Those two were...so strange together.

"Hah, Finn would probably go in shock if he knew that." He really couldn't believe Elissa had thought that. "Finn has been absolutely in love with her since the first time he saw her, much like me. Except, he had enough courage to go after her. But I'm considering myself a bit more lucky these days, wouldn't you?" he asked with a cheeky grin. "I guess it runs in the family," he chuckled.

He himself knew he was becoming much more lucky with things, especially after all of the tragic things that had happened to his small family. He just hoped that Jae wouldn't have to go through that. His father, after all, was an auror just like himself. Yes, he was older than him and had much more experience, but he was still afraid that Jae might go through the same thing one day. Then again, the kid wanted to be with dragons. Go figure. He still didn't believe that sweet little Chloe was running around with those gigantic lizards.

His faced screwed up into a puzzled look. "Really? Girls...went after me? I can't remember that. I was too in love with you to think about anything else," he admitted with a shrug. He had been so busy thinking about Emmy that any other girl in his life, aside from Elissa, had just sort of passed through him. "You know, I guess I never realized how much I actually loved you in school until I talked about it. Until now," he said with a bright smile. Wow, that was something he hadn't done in a long time.

Axel couldn't help but broaden his smile as she spoke about her heart. "Yes! Follow your heart! One of us has to! I've been living in shadows for the past four years and I couldn't regret that more. Oh, and thanks for not wanting to torture me anymore," he chuckled. He was clearly very excited about this conversation. Who wouldn't be?

"And that's all I've ever needed to hear," the young man said, and it came truly from his heart. He tipped her chin up so she was now looking at him. "I love you Emmylyne. That's one of the only things I can be sure about in my life right now." Right now all he wanted to do was kiss her. And that's exactly what he did. Not one of those small pecks they had given each other earlier, but a long, meaningful kiss. After several seconds he pulled away and smiled down at her. "You have absolutely no idea how long I've been wanting to do that."

Chloe giggled lightly. "Now tha' will be somethin' when they go to school. One could fill in for the other!" She looked fondly at the two girls. They really were identical. Thank the lord for the twins her aunt was going to have: a boy and a girl.

"A lot of things slip your mind when you think of me and dragons, don't they?" she laughed. "To tell ya the truth, Axel still doesn't believe tha' I'm workin' with dragons. Heck, me mum doesn't believe it either," she said with a nod. Her family was proud of her, but still quite baffled at her career choice.

Jae chuckled and picked up the pink kangaroo. He hopped it past her then made it kiss her nose. "I think it likes ya Lain," he giggled. "Thanks." He munched on the cookie Katie had given him until the adults began talking again. "Oh yeah! Let's wait outside!" he said enthusiastically. He was definitely ready for the zoo.

Seeing the look Nik gave her, Chloe nodded once. She didn't see why they couldn't just wait outside for Emmy and Axel. They would be out soon enough. She figured they were just having another talk, which was very good for them. "Zip up bah-tee."

Taking note of his cousins nod, Jae zipped up his coat like Chloe had said. "I'm ready. Someone should take Lainie," he said matter-of-factly as he motioned to the little girl. Wow, he'd have a little girl in his house soon. How Liam would handle that was beyond him, but he had always wanted a little sister to protect, much like Axel and Finn.

"Why do you call me tha' Chlo?"
