"Everyone is close-minded regarding some subjects. Every person probably has some topics he's biased in. Including me." She agreed to Green's words. Being stubborn wasn't the worst character trait somebody could have. It could even be helpful somtimes.
For a few moments Lena's mind felt a bit bedazzled as she wasn't able to announce right away how many children she had. "Well..." Still counting she grinned a bit ashamed. "I have nine children. Three or them are teenagers already."
Noticing that Green looked at the sandcastle the eyes of the young woman followed and examined the building. Indeed, it had become really beautiful. They were talented.
"Oh sure. You can come over to my house. We also have a garden and she could look at the pets then. Just call me, I usually have time." Lena said friendly. "Well, so she should get along well with Devotion. Right now he prefers girl."
Oh yes, Devotion did. He really adored Nature and sank onto his knees as she completed the masterpiece. She was the queen, the one and only.
"Wooah..." Was all he stated as he took the girls hand and rubbed it against his warm cheeks. Her talented hands deserved a hug.
The fairy instead slowly moved inside the castle and looked around. This was supposed to be her kingdom now. Awesome, so excellent. Perhaps a bit sandy, but hey, what to expect ?

"You're right," Green nodded, "I'm biased when it comes to my children. I love them so, and as much as they annoy me sometimes... That doesn't matter because they're mine. You know?"
"Wow! Nine?" Green turned her head to face Lena and her voice sounded disbelieving when she spoke, "How do you do it? My little house is barely big enough for the five of us... Actually, it isn't big enough. I've been considering moving for quite some time now. Especailly since I want more babies."
"That sounds lovely. I'm sure Nature would enjoy that. Would it be alright if I brought my other children along as well? Nika's never home long enough to watch them, and I really don't like leaving them at home alone," she paused long enough to consider Devotion's behavior and then spoke again, "He seems to be quite the charmer, actually. Its no wonder why he prefers girls."
When Devotion sank to his knees beside her, Nature's eyes widened in surprise and confusion. What was he doing? And then, he grabbed her hand and began to rub it against his cheek.
Okay, now that was unexpected. His cheek was warm, but that couldn't help the little girl to understand this behavior. Smiling warmly down at Devotion, Nature used all of her strength to pull him back to his feet and into a friendly hug.
"Thanks for helping me," she said before gently releasing her new friend.
She watched the fairy examine her knew home with a worried expression on her face. What if she didn't like it?
"Do you like it?" Nature asked the fairy, twirling a stray lock of her hair around her finger.

What a wonderful statement, Lena thought and smiled. "Oh yes, of course, I understand. Every child is...exhausting from time to time, but you still love them. No matter what they do." She agreed.
"Yes, nine indeed." Lena was stilled a bit surprised herself. How come she had received so many of them ? "We just moved into a huge house nearby Barton Town. The second floor just belongs to the children, but they occupy the kitchen and the living room as well." She shrugged. "It just works somehow, they're all very depandant on each other. And there's the garden still."
"Sure, if you don't mind that my children will probably be curious little sprouts and will gather around them." Thinking about tons of children at home, Lena felt joy and pain. Hopefully they would get along like Devotion and Nature did.
"Yes, he's really trying his best." She laughed a bit.
Devotion appreciated the hug as he was lifted to his feet. She knew what she wanted, so intelligent, so perfect. "No poblem." He stated and grinned, while shaking his tail a bit.
As the fairy noticed that she was the one who Nature had talked to, she turned around to look at the green girl. A slight smile crossed her face and she nodded yes quickly.
"She says, yeah. Likes tower best." Devotion stated and was proud that he could translate. He had noticed that others didn't hear the fairy's talk. It seemed like someone had put a second fairy in his head and so he could understand.
"You good." Cocking his head to one side he looked at Nature, wishing he had the same kind of hair.
"But I guess it's time for us to go. Someone has to cook for the children." Lena sighed as she slowly got up and felt that one of her legs fell asleep.

"Exactly," Green grinned and nodded her head, pleased that she and Lena saw eye to eye.
"I'm not sure how you do it, Lena. Unless the children are fairly well behaved. I think I might have gone nuts by now."
She admired the other woman. It took determination, courage and such a big heart to be bale to home that many children.
"Well, I won't mind and Marie... She might not be to pleased. The little girls so shy. Nyx, however, will love the attention. She's a spitfire."
Nature smiled when Devotion translated the fairy's words, delighted that the little creature liked the sandcastle. It confused her a bit, however. Why couldn't she hear the fairy? Would she get a fairy of her own someday, too?
It took a moment for Devotion's next words to register in her head and then she blinked and turned to face him, smiling brightly.
"Thank you. You're good, too."
When Lena announced that it was so near to supper, Green jumped as if she'd been struck by lightening. It was too late. She'd told Nika that she would be home far earlier than this. Now, the poor boy was probably worried sick.
"We have to go as well," she stood up and gently grabbed Nature's hand, "I promised my son, he's babysitting, that we'd be back before supper... and we're running late. Seeya around?"
Nature, who wasn't too pleased about the sudden turn of events, frowned when her gaurdian grabbed her hand. She'd wanted to stay and talk to Devotion! But, the little girl was already being tugged in the direction of their home so she simply sighed and waved over her shoulder;
"Goodbye!"

"I can't wait to see them." Lena responded and smiled friendly. "Sure, we'll arrange something and then we can continue talking."
She moved over to the sandbox and made one of her hands slide through Devotion's hair. "Come on, let's go now."
The world was shattered as Nature had to leave. Devotion just blinked and stared as she walked away and just managed to wave back before she had gone.
Tears were forming in his eyes as he looked up at his mother. "Why ?" He asked and sniffled a bit. "WHY ?!" He litterally screamed now and was about to kick Lena.
"Hold it ! You'll see her again." Lena said calmly and grabbed the anima's wrist to keep him from hitting her. She had never seen him so angry before.
"Gooo, lemme goooo!" Devotion growled and the little fairy was about to pull on a strand of Lena's hair as she just tightened her grip and made him walk with her trying to ignore the feeling on her head.
Damnit, why was he so furious ?
