Ella The trip to Rose Hall had been a fun one for Ella. She had lived most of her life in simplicity, in a small house with her family. The moment she became an adult, she was ready to move out of the house and live on her own. It was a big deal to Ella, who wanted to be independent. So, she struck out on her own, finding her own place to live, and finding him...
As they arrived at the house, Ella took in the whole sight, looking from left to right and examining all of the intricacies of the house. She had never seen anything quite like it. She'd never been fortunate enough to have wealthy friends, so this was definitely something new to her.
She walked up the steps to the house, and through the door that Caroline was holding open for her. "Thanks," she said with a smile. "This place is gorgeous! Are we really going to stay here?" It was a bit much for her to take in at once, but she knew that this house would be the perfect place for her child to be raised. She wanted the best for her child, and the baby would certainly have it.
"Is this really your house? Was it your families house at one point? Or has it always been yours?" She looked up at the entryway, examining the large staircase and muraled walls. "Can I go look around?"

Sizzla Sizzla followed Ella into the house, never having seen Caroline's summer home. It was...very different from her apartment over the GoGo, and it wasn't quite what she expected.
"Dang Caroline! Why didn't I ever know about this place?! It's amazing! Is there a pool out back and everything?" Sizzla rushed into the house, taking in all of the sights and smells around her. This place was awesome! She was glad that Caroline had this idea, for her house was much too small to accommodate three adults and a baby. She had enough children at home, but at least they could take care of each other while she was gone.
Sizzla turned in circles in the living room, just taking it all in. Finally, she plopped down on an overstuffed couch, sinking in substantially. "Now this is the life!" She turned to the others. "Are you guys just going to stand there? Come in and have a sit with me." She flashed a huge smile and sunk even further into the chair.

Sizzla Sizzla nodded at the woman who had come to take their bags. "Hello, I'm Sizzla. Nice to meet you Tabitha! Thanks for helping us out while we're here. We really appreciate it. We just need to keep this one in good health and spirits." She put her hand around Ella's shoulder, wanting her to know that they were prepared to take care of any of her needs. After all, she was quite pregnant!Ella looked amazed at the beautiful house all around her. She had never stayed anywhere so nice before. " I'm ever so grateful to you for letting me stay with you two. You're too nice to me!" A single tear rolled down her cheek, dropping to the floor. A smile broke out across her face as she scampered off to go look around the house. She hadn't noticed the change in Caroline's demeanor, but Sizzla definitely had.She sat down next to Caroline, and smiled. "Yes, this place is lovely. I'd love to live here if I were you! I don't think I'd ever leave! Well, I think it will be a great place to raise the baby, and to help Ella through her pregnancy. I wonder if she'll live her with us after the baby is born...Speaking of the baby, we should probably schedule an appointment with the doctor to see how things are developing. It'd be nice to get an ultrasound of the baby. Maybe we'll be able to tell if it's a girl or a boy." Sizzla voice rose at the end of her statement. She was excited about the baby that would soon come into all of the women's lives.
"Well, if you're up for it, how about we go for a swim. I want to teach the baby how to swim early, so they're comfortable in the water. Maybe Ella likes swimming...I guess we'll have to see." She stood up and extended a hand to Caroline to pull her up off of the couch. "Now, no more sad feelings, okay? Let's see that smile of yours! It's sad to see you so unhappy...I know you miss your family. If I had more family to miss, I probably would too. But now, my children are my family, and I know they're there for me everywhere I go."

caroline_cupcake Tabitha had already scurried off, missing the greeting from Sizzla. Caroline embraced Ella soothingly. "Aw, Ella you shouldn't thank us, really, well me at least..." She giggled and stepped back a bit, leaving Ella some breathing room. Her eyes reassured Ella not to cry, to be happy, even though sadness was an overhead cloud hovering over Caroline. Caroline watched as Ella leave to wonder around.
"Ah, yes, you are the first guests here, well besides a few of the kids. Hehe, this is the perfect place to raise the child, I do agree, but we can't live here all the days of the week, I was thinking of mostly summers and vacations, not to mention weekends." Caroline chuckled softly and glanced over to Sizzla with a warm smile. "Oh, we should do that, crap�forgot about that, err, you can do it, your better with scheduling things like that." She waggled her hands in the air with a slight excitement and emotional gesture. "Well, I am fine, just memories flash in my mind, I feel like I am loosing those memories each day, I miss them." She sunk down into the couch not evening replying to Sizzla swimming praise.

Ella "Oh but I want to thank you!" Ella said. "I never thought anyone would be willing to take in a pregnant stranger. It's so kind of you!" Her eyes beamed, a tear forming in each one. She was so happy that she was crying. She shook her head, fanning her hand at her eyes, hoping to dry them, and she smiled meekly at the two women, knowing that everything was going to be perfect.
She gave a slight bow, then sauntered off to admire the house. She began to wander down the long hallways, admiring the old paintings and sculptures. She opened several doors, taking in the intricately carved beds and plush furnishings in the guest rooms.
Eventually she came to an oak-paneled room, with a heavy door. The shelves were lined with books, and in the middle of the room was a spiral staircase, leading to the next floor of the massive home library. Ella's eyes widened in awe as she breathed in the musty air. She loved the smell of books, and the knowledge that could be found in them. Ella was quite an avid reader, and she had been reading to the baby for months now. She hoped it would rub off on the little creature growing inside her.

Sizzla Sizzla looked at Caroline, a bit concerned about her friend's sad demeanor. She had never seen Caroline act this way, as she was usually a pretty happy-go-lucky girl. Her psychic abilities began to kick in, making her a bit more sensitive to the feelings of the other girl. She knew part of why Caroline was so sad, but she wanted to make her friend feel better. She sat down next to her, giving her shoulders a quick squeeze.
"You're losing your memories? There has to be a way to keep them fresh in your mind...It'll be okay Caro. I know you miss your family dearly. I'm so sorry you aren't able to see them. Is there any way that they can come see you, or that you can go visit them? Can you at least see them in dreams?" Realizing that she was being slighty rude with all her questions and gross optimism, Sizzla sat back, thinking.
"Yes, I suppose I could plan for a doctor's visit..." Her voice trailed off as she tried to concentrate on Caroline's feelings.

Caroline's Journal Everything seems to be going just dandy, Ella is so kind...too kind maybe. I hope she stays, or at least visits the baby when she is born. Well, I am tired and bloated....tootles.

Ella's Journal Things are going beautifully, I couldn't have better parents for this child. I keep forgetting that this child inside of me won't be mine; sometimes I dream that he will come back for me, but I find that unlikely. Yet, Caroline and Sizzla keep insisting that I will be a part of the baby's life, and in addition, they'll let me come to visit or live in Caroline's beautiful home, Rose Hall. Caroline is a very, erm, happy person with a big heart, the other day I experienced her depressed. I guess there is more to learn about her. Sizzla is very kind and welcoming, and she seemed a bit more normal as well as comforting. I know they will be great parents. I just found out also, Caroline herself is pregnant, so we'll get to experience it all together. It should be quite a ride.
Ella

Off to the Doctor...
"Hello?" The voice on the other end of the line sounded pleasant and reassuring. "Doctor May's office."
"Hi, this is Sizzla Marvel, and I'm wanting to make an appointment for a freind of mine. She needs to see a doctor about the status of her pregnancy. I think we'll just need a check-up. Perhaps an ultrasound?"
"Sure, Ms. Marvel. What is the patient's name?"
"Ella...Ella Ewyon. Our phone number is 555-4712. Is there any way we could make the appointment tomorrow or maybe by the end of the week?"
"Sure," replied the voice on the other end. "Let's see what we can do for you." There was a bit of silence as Sizzla waited for the woman to check.
"Ok Ms. Marvel, I have a two o'clock appointment available tomorrow. How does that sound?"
"Just great. Thanks for being so helpful at the last minute. I do appreciate it."
"Sure, it's no problem. So we'll see you here tomorrow. Just be sure to bring an insurance card, okay?"
"Sure, see you then. Bye!"
Sizzla hung up the phone and sighed. Finally, they'd be able to see the baby, and know if it was okay or not. She was a bit concerned about its health, but Ella didn't seem like the type who would do anything to harm her child. She seemed to love they baby, as Sizzla and Caroline would.
She stood up and headed toward the stairs, shouting to Ella, who was in her room reading. "Ella! Doctor's appointment tomorrow! We have to be there at two!"
"Okay!" she shouted back. "I'll be there!"
This house was becoming a home quickly...

Sizzla's Journal Well, we've adopted Ella into our family as well as the baby that she's carrying for us. She's a lovely girl, and very sweet. Almost too sweet. She's so thankful for everything we've done for her, and I'm glad that she's happy to be here. I just hope she thinks we'll be good parents. I'm a bit nervous about the whole thing myself, but with all the children I already have, I'm thinking it may be easy. But you never know...She could be a fussy kid. So far, the only child I've had any problems raising is Lilith. But she's a little demon-child, so what should I have expected, right? Caroline is now pregnant with her own child. It seems that somehow, the GMFC helped her and WW conceive. It's amazing how science works, isn't it? But even though I can't have a child of my own just yet, you never know...one day the GMFC could be a place where I could go as well. But for now, little Faye will be enough for me I'm sure. Well, we've got to get off to a doctor's appointment for Ella soon, so I should round up the troops. It's quite a drive back into the city from Rose Hall. I'll write again later...
