Caden woke very early the next morning. There was much to do and he wanted it done as swiftly as possible. He kissed Lauranna's forehead and smiled when he felt their son kick between them. He bent to kiss her tummy, "Shh little man...let Mommy sleep a bit..." He knew it wouldn't happen though. They'd both slept well and soundly last night after the full day yesterday. He knew she'd be up and raring to go again. Lifting his eyes he'd see hers and grin, "Seems our son is hungry....shall we get out of bed and dine with the others?"
Varen too woke early, determined to have breakfast ready and waiting for everyone so they could have a good meal before making their way to Serena. He slipped quietly out of bed to let Jasmine rest a bit longer and made his way to the kitchen. Biscuits were soon in the oven and then he began working on bacon, ham and sausage to go with the eggs he'd make once they were done. he shook his head, "What am I thinking?? I forgot the coffee..."
Chastianna sighed sadly, "You may be right about that...but hopefully his father is still alive and can maybe explain a few things. His father couldn't have been evil...King Caden is such a good man." Thinking about that, she fell into a quiet restful sleep and woke the next morning feeling calm and refreshed. it was odd to feel safe. Stretching her arms over he head she let out a very kittenish sound as he body shook off the last of her sleepiness. she felt someone next to her and smiled. Oh right, Gavin was there...thankfully. She turned on her side to face him and just looked at his face. Gracious he was handsome. her fingers lifted to trace across his lips and then withdrew quickly as she felt almost singed by the slight contact. What was going on between them? Why did she have such a violent reaction to touching him? Not that it felt bad, actually it felt right, but it was so strong. The smell of biscuits cooking caused her stomach to let out a loud growl of 'feed me woman' and she blushed furiously, hoping he wasn't awake to hear it.
Naild was glad she was seeing the truth of her place here, "I am as well. Though I can't ever remember feeling like a kid...I guess I always felt it was my job to take care of my mom and be a man." He shrugged slightly but smiled, "I like to remember those few hours though...you looked so beautiful in that gown...some day...when we get married I'd love for you to wear that and I'll wear the armor." It was a romantic notion, and not really one he'd normally have but it seemed right somehow to him for them to recreate that time. It would be like righting that events of that other time line and merging it with this one, at least in his mind. They could get there and then continue their lives together. They both slept soon after and he woke to that same aroma of baking biscuits. "mmm...."
Aldin winced when she immediately stopped moving her arm. "Well that was a bit much to hope for even with your fast healing. Bones don't knit in a few days." He was gently putting her arm back in the sling when he heard a familiar whistle. "Well I'll be...no need for the flag..Mirq is here..." He left her and leaned over the balcony, waving, "You are a mind reader my friend, come on up."
Mirq looked confused, "Mirq no read." He climbed up easily though and plopped onto the balcony.
Aldin smiled and patted his shoulder, "come meet my friend Oralie..."
Mirq blinked, "Friend?" And looked even more confused and when sh saw Serena he tipped his head, "Mirq see before??" And then his head tipped the other way before he nodded, "Mirq HAS seen before...not know name...see yes. friend of Queen...yes?"
