"I'll go get her, wait here," I transformed back into werewolf form and dashed out sight.
I ran back into town and stopped at the daycare, asked for Yvonne Vertigo and carried her the whole way back in my human form. She looked back up with me with her sea-green eyes and peachy colored cheeks. I grinned back, even if Robyn didn't come back at least I'd have my daughter. She had dark hair that shimmered a sort of purple in the moon's light.
"You want to see mommy?" I asked softly.
"Ya! Mommy! Where mommy?"
"Just up the hill," I replied, trying to keep my mood bright in front of her.
Yvonne clapped her hands together and giggled, playing with the light blue lace on her dress. I held her a little closer when I got back, a little worried of what might happen, I didn't want her to start cying.
"See, Yvonne?" I asked, nodding towards Robyn who stood a few feet away. "Theres... there's mommy," she giggled and clapped again as she turned her head to where I was looking.

**um Kitty? Babies don't talk when their about 6 months some don't even have teeth yet ((by the way sorry if i'm taking forever i'm eaing ice cream ^_^))**
Robyn
I looke dat Alex for a moment, he looked uncomfortable after Syther left for the first wo minutes I told Alex I loved him and I did want him here. I saw him come over the hill with the baby, God she was so cute. He handed her over to me. I held her and smiled when she did but it didn't stop me to occationally look up at Syther and glare. She played with the golden chain that was around my neck. he put some of it in her mouth. I looked down at her and smiled. She stuck out her tongue and giggled.
We're meant to be one

*ya, I sort of thought of that after I posted, just pretend that she didn't talk. *
[Syther Vertigo]
"Please don't hate me for getting her, I still don't regret it." I crossed my arms arcross my chest and watched Yvonne, the corners of my mouth twitching up into a smile.

"But It doesn't mean I love you. Getting her wasn't a mistake, the mistake was not asking me... That shows me. I don't know if I can trust you." I said.
"Of course you can trust me." He tried to hug me, I pulled back Yvonne still in my arms.
"No... I really really can't."I said. "Alex can I have some time alone with him?" I asked.
"Sure." He said. "I'm going to go check on Aurora. If you need ANYTHING... just scream." He said eyeing Syther.
"Thank you." I smiled at him, I really did love him.
I turned and glared back at Syther.
"So you got me alone. What do you want? Ah but be careful our daughter is presant." For some reason the word OUR between me and him never felt right.
"So what just because I couldn't get PREGNANT you adopt?" I spat the word pregnant. "She's something she really is, but the fact just bothers me."

I came behind Robyn. she looked so happy with the baby. So right. "Maybe we can work out so kind of arrangement? Maybe...she could still see th baby?" I was trying to do everything I could t make Robyn happy. I sighed.
aurora:
I looked at rous and smiled. "Are you ever going to take me on a date?"
"It was near your birthday," I said softly, "after we found out you couldn't get pregnant you looked so heart-broken. A few days after, my parents told me that they were going to send me off to a boarding school. So, I decided that since I'd be back on your birthday, I thought it could be a sort of surprise present."
Robyn looked like she was about to make another witty comment, so I continued before she got the chance. "I called Rous and he told me that you were attending his school. That's how I found you, then, I went to the orphanage. ...You know the rest," I paused and took a breath. "So, that's it, any hateful glares or words you'd like to say to me? Because it seems that's all I'm going to get from you no matter what I do." I reached over and combed my fingers through Yvonne's soft hair.

[Sir Rous]
My heart beated unevenly, quickly, I was sure that it might stop at any second. But that hadn't happened any other time I got this way. "This..." pant. "really isn't..." pant. "the best time, Aurora." I leaned against the tree, my face pressed against the cool bark. That seemed to help a little. "What..." pant. "happened to Syther?" I forced myself to turn around briefly to catch a glimpse of her face, we both smiled simultaniously just then.

I smiled brightly at Rous and giggled slightly. "He's talking to Robyn. Alex was over there too, last time I checked. Some sort of kuffle over werecat stuff." I shrugged. "I would prefer to be with you." I said happily, wanting to touch or hold him in some sort of way.
I laughed, it was a sad laugh. "After you left... It really hurt. But I was never any real good for you. Your mother always called me-"
"Poison." We both said together.
I held her and she stared at him, while sucking on the golden chain. "I wanna see her, I already love her.... But I'm marrying Alex."
"You don't have to marry Alex you know." He said sadly. "We can go back to the manor you, me, and Yvonne and we can start over."
"It's not a matter of HAVING to marry Alex. I want to marry him, finally I get a say in the matter."
"So what we had-?" He started.
"UH! You didn't understand you'll never understand! I love you Syther, but I'm not IN love with you. Does that make sense? Is that clear?"
"Crystal." He responded.
"I think maybe I wasn't able to get pregnant for a reason. I really do. I don't think we were meant to be together but that doesn't mean take off or tke Yvonne away from me. If you signed in my name she is still part of mine."
"But you just said-"
"I said I was angry at you for taking her without asking me. I said I didn't think I could trust you. Are you listening to me?" I said...
We're meant to be one
I know we are...
If I am the Sky
Then you are my star... ™
"I've always listened to you," I whispered, tracing Yvonne's jaw line contently. "Have you listened to me?"
Robyn groaned, a sort of sad groan. "Look, you're in denial, I love Alex and we're getting married, can't you understa-"
"I'm not in denial, I'm just selective about the reality I accept." I looked away from Yvonne and locked my eyes with Robyn, grinning crookedly. "It's a quote I read in a Calvain and Hobbes comic,"
"Please, stop," she tried to look away, but couldn't. "Why are you doing this? I told you, I. Will. Not. Marry--"
"Me?" I raised an eyebrow, it didn't occur to me once that she'd go through with it. "Robyn, please," I held my hands out and Yvonne started to squirm until she handed the baby into my arms. "don't leave us..." I breathed.
Robyn bit her bottom lip and stared at us for a few seconds, then started shaking her head. "Syther, stop, please, this would be so much easier if you just understood!"
"I do,"
"Then why are you doing this? Why are you making it harder than it is? I love you, but not like that. Syther, stop, just stop!" tears were threatening to come out of her eyes.
I sighed, and we stood there for a few minutes, nothing but silence between us. She looked down at her feet the whole time, as if she was thinking of something. While I never moved a muscle, not even my eyes.
"Robyn?" I asked softly.
Her head shot up and I could spot a few tears that had escaped. "What?"
"I love you,"

"You can't say it unless you mean it, damnit Syther!" I said using my hand to cover my eyes and hold my forehead together from exploding.
"just say it back please." He said. "I love you Robyn, please just love me back." He said it wasn't a plea or a beggin he was only asking.
"I did." I said. "You know the really evil thing that your mother did?"
I removed my hand so he could see the tears already streaming down my face.
"She made bets."
He looked at me confused. "I don't understand."
"She made bets with her BFFs at their teas and their shopping sprees, and you know what she bet? She thought that I was pregnant, she and her friends made a bet of how long it would take for my belly to start growing. And the beyond worst thing.... your father had to tell me that. Then... he passed away." I was shaking from anger, sadness and everything else in between.
We're meant to be one

I could feel all of Robyns emotions. I couldn't stand it any longer I went to her and saw the tears in her eyes. I pulled her into my arms ad held her there, glaring at Syther over my shoulder. I didn't like her hurting. it was maddening. at least I was finally able to comfort her. If she pushed me away, that's fine. But I needed to hold her, for my own sanity, even if it was just a few minutes. Her hair smelled divine...her body molded to mine perfectly.
"are we still getting married?" I asked her in her mind. I didn't want the pig answering for her.
I stroked her cheek, drying her eyes with my hands, just gazing at her. "Are you going to be okay?" I aszked softly. I loved her so much!
**I have an idea! After their honeymoon, she could get pregnant. XD and then syther can blow up and get mad at her because she could have Alex's baby, but not his. Just an idea. XD**
