Lenore sneaks into the manor, and rubs her stomach absently. She grins, and then wipes her chin once more, just in case there is still some blood on it.

She knows that her eyes are red-tinged, she is used to it by now. What she isn't used to is having long hair once more, which she has usually been keeping in a half-assed pony tail. She tugs on a lock of it, and then straightens her sleeveless, dark green robe once more.

She glances back, to see if her wife is following her, flicking her wand to set down her luggage by the door. In her distraction, she made a bit more noise than she wanted to. . . . She was hoping to get in unnoticed. . . .

Rinion, meanwhile, is reading in the main house's study. He is waiting for the tea he promised his own wife to be ready. He quirks a brow at the noise. As far as he knew, no one had left the house. . . . He stands, intent on going to investigate. . . .

Krista had just gotten off the phone with her younger brother shaking her head. She couldn't blieve it was finally over, with a small hopeful sigh she rubs at her belly as she chuckles. She was only five months along, yet she felt as if it was much longer. Brushing her bangs from her face she looks over her hair.

Looking at Drac she smiles "You don't think your grandfather will freak will you?" she had cut it alot shorter then normal, and she wanted to surprise him over tea. Looking back at herself in the mirror she smiles again. It was cut just past her ears with her bangs being longer then the rest of her hair.

Drac who was clad in all leather chuckles as she shakes her head "I believe he will love it. You needed a change anywas, with you sisters being gone for so long." looking over at the clock she smiles before her ears twitched.

Krista had heard the noise also, it was coming from the Slytherin wing of the home. Looking back at Drac she shook her head.

Mel closes the door carefully behind her before she wraps her arms around her wife rubbing at her belly. Kissing at her wife she smiles "You'll draw attention love. And I'm not ready to give you up just yet to the others." pushing her hair from her face she too had hair down to her long back.

Laer sneaks in behind the couple, and shakes his head. How he got talked into . . . well, everything, is a mystery to him. And, being away for just as long as his best friend and her wife was no small picnic for him. He had to deal with the rejections with the two women. And . . . well, he had never known Lenore to be so emotional over something. . . .

Lenore leans back on Mel, and grins, in an eery sort of preditorial way, and her eyes grow a deeper red. Hissing her words, as well, she says, "Believe me, I don't want to be given up. . . ."

Rinion clears his throat, however, and Lenore grumbles under his breath. "Well, I am sorry for interrupting, but I did not think that the two of you would be having such a long honeymoon. And, I did not think that you would have wanted to have guests with you," he says, eyeing Lear, who has the decency to blush. He flicks his wrist, sending a message to Krista via his elven magic. He gives his half sister a half smile, and another quirk of a brow. "Well, you look . . . different. All the same, welcome home to the both of you." He jumps a little when he hears the kettle whistle.

Krista arches a brow as the message appears in front of her. Eyes widen she looks at Drac who face was filled with happiness. Taking Drac's hand Krista knew this was bad to do, but she didn't want to walk. Closing her eyes she disppeared with a crack.

Reappearing next to her husband she stumbles slightly having to hold onto Drac "Its about time you two came home..." looking up her eyes widen as she looks at her best friend. Looking up at her twin then Lenore she shook her head "Are you...?"

Drac jaw dropped before she screams covering her mouth. Blushing she lets her hands drop before she smiles "Seems like we have another addition to the family." looking towards Laer she smiles slightly before biting her lips. She wasn't really sure what to think, as the last time she saw him was christmas.

Mel chuckles as she lets herself step away from Lenore, walking over to her twins she chuckles "Seems like everyone has changed slightly." looking at her twins new hair she smiles "And yes there is a new addition to the family."

Lenore frowns. "Well, that isn't fair, is it? When I Apparated when I was pregnant with Damien, I kept ending up in an old man's shower!" she says, in a rather grumpy way, her eyes not masking her jealousy.

She then can't help but to give a little smile. She puts her taloned hands on the slight bump of her belly. "Two new additions, besides yours, Kris," she says. "At least, I hope so." She tilts her head to the side, the messy pony tail swinging behind her. "I like the cut. . . ." she adds, smiling still wider. "Hey, Drac," she continues. She then quirks a brow and glances back at Laer. Well, he had some 'splaining to do. . . .

Lear smiles down at Drac, but doesn't say anything just yet.

Rinion is too busy staring at his wife's very different hair. He was shocked into silence when she appeared. He takes a few steps forward, and brushes his hands through her hair. He then nods his approval, finally smiling. "I like it," he says. Then, with a moment of dawning, he hurries from the room, mumbling something about tea.

Drac smiles then nods "My class in college for beauty paid off after all. She needed a change anyways. I'm just glad everyone likes it." hugging her grandmother she kisses her cheek before she steps away only to hug Lenore "Congrats." kissing her cheek also she nods her head to Mel.

Stepping away she watches her grandfather step away before looking back at Laer. Pushing her hair from her smile she nods "Its good to see you."

Krista blushes before she nods "Thanks, I was so worried that Rinion would freak." watching him leave she smiles before looking back towards her sisters "Twins, very nice. I'm glad I'm having just one little boy. I don't think I could handle twins." rubbing at her stomach she smiles again.

Mel eyes widen before she nods "A boy, I bet Rinion is pleased about that." looking over at Lenore she slips her hand around her waist before looking at Laer. She still couldn't believe that Lenore managed to get him to agree.

"Well, you did a good job," Lenore says, smiling kindly at Drac. She then quirks an angled brow at Kris. She stops herself from saying that Kris could come home with Liberty Spikes and Rinion would just be as pleased as punch, and then has to literally bite her tongue from adding that Kris's and his baby could be a three headed mutant and Rinion would be so proud.

Scared about what might pop out of her mouth, she manages, "Congratulations!" before clamping her mouth firmly shut.

Laer is a little nonplussed at finally being addressed, and is on the point of blurting out something that he would rather phrase in a more tactful way before he regains control of himself (something akin to I didn't want to do it, Lenore made me!). "It's good to see you, as well," he adds, one of his charming, crooked smiles on his face as he gives Drac a small bow. His hair is not up in the pony tail today, instead it is loose around him, and moves subtly with his movements. Nothing else about him has changed, however. Except for maybe a bit darker skin. His smile widens a fraction when he adds, "Drac, leather suits you."

Rinion calls from the sitting room, "Tea is ready. Come and get it!"

Krista eyes her sister arching a brow. She knew Lenore well enough to know she was holding back. Chuckling she looks over her shoulder then smiles holding her hand out towards Lenore "Care to join us?" she was glad the family seem back together "So how was your honeymoon? Did you ever leave the room?" looking towards her twin.

Mel shrugs as she nods "Sure I've been dying to have some of Rinion's tea. And we did for awhile there, but then ended back up in the room again." looking towards her wife, she decided she would allow lenore to explain what she meant.

Drac smiles then nods "I'll join you lot in a moment. I'm gonna call Diana, I know she with Ren." grabbing her phone she slips pass Laer nudding him slightly as she walks outisde.

Flipping her phone open, she scans through the number.

Laer quirks a brow, but mumbles a quiet, "Excuse me," and follows Drac outside. He glances over her as she plays with her mobile, and then asks, "I am assuming that you really didn't want to call Diana, or did I misread the nudge?"

"It was fun, the honeymoon, that is," Lenore says. "We just had an interruption. I decided that I wanted to have children. But, it was hard," she continues, following everyone into the sitting room. "We were rejected from several places, that is the reason we didn't make it home on time. Anyway, we finally found someone who would help us, we just needed a donor. . . . Uhm, that is why Laer was with us when we returned. I managed to talk him into being our donor. . . ."

Rinion, who had been listening to his half-sister's explination of things, stops in the process of pouring the tea. His eyes wing up, and he glances over at Lenore.

Drac glances over her shoulder before she smiles. Putting her phone away she glances up at him "Yes and no, I do plan to call Diana. But I also wanted to talk to you. I haven't seen you since christmas." looking down at the ground she bites her bottom lip "So um, how are you?"

Krista arches a brow as she watches Laer walk away before looking back at her sisters "Um....wow, does Drac know this seeing as she sortof...um..." shaking her head she looks back at her husband biting her bottom lip "Seems like we might need to make the room we have even bigger, so the twins can be placed into it."

Mel blushes before she wraps her arms around her wife "Seem my wife has a way with words." kissing her neck she rest her head on her shoulder "I will admit, I am glad to be home. I missed my family alot."

"I'm . . ." Laer pauses. He really doesn't know what to say to that. He's a mess of emotions right now. There is the attraction to Drac that had budded over Christmas while they spoke, then there is his hasty decision to be the donor for Lenore's and Mel's babies. It wasn't until he conceded to Lenore's request that he knew just exactly how tight a hold she had on him, and not in a romantic sense. More in a sibling sense. He realized he really would do anything for her . . . damned the consequences, it would seem.

He clears his throat and tries again. "I'm too many things right now to tell you exactly how I am feeling. If that makes me sound like a basket case, then so be it," he says, smiling in his charming way, though it falters a little toward the end. "I have something to explain to you, however. I would prefer that you heard it from me, rather than anyone else," he adds. "You do know how Lenore is my best friend, right?" he asks. Rather than waiting for an answer, however, he hurriedly tells Drac about the series of events that led to him, ultimately, consenting to be, essentially, the father of the twins that Lenore is now carrying in her womb. He told her how Lenore had called him up one evening, practically in tears because it seemed that the clinic that she used to concieve Damien had guarded their secrets so jealously that no one else knew how to help same-sex couples with their dreams of children. She needed a friend, so he hurried to her side. Then, she asked him to help her and Mel. . . .

At Lenore's bewildered expression, Rinion starts to explain, "Well, while you were away, Krista and I decided to make a nursery. It connects the main house and our wing."

Lenore quirks a brow and leans against Mel. "Well, that sounds lovely," she says, smiling. "I would help, but last time I tried doing anything while my hormones were out of whack, I almost killed Damien and Eirnae."

Krista chuckles before she looks to her husband "Yea that wasn't pretty from what I was told." shaking her head she smiles as she looks back at Mel and Lenore "You won't have to lift a finger, seeing as my magic hasn't gone crazy on me yet. I've been working on the nursey slowly." running her fingers along her stomach she blushes "Or at least when I'm not trying to steal your brother to the bedroom."

Mel shakes her head before laughing "Okay you sound as bad as us. Not that its a bad thing." wrapping her arms around her wife's stomach she kisses her cheek "You can relax all you want Lenore, I will take care of you like I promised." nibbling on her ear she pulls away to look at the other two "So beside having a child, what has life been like here?"

Drac listen to him explain everything. For any normal girl, they would have freaked out of him by now. But she also knew that they weren't a couple. They never kissed, or even admitted anything to eachother. Yet part of her felt hurt at the same time. Hurt that she might have lost her chance, because she knew she could never have what he and Lenore have.

Mewing she smiles as she looks at him "I'm happy for you Laer, really. Lenore and Mel should be happy, and with twins that have your genes. Those twins are bound to be beautiful just like their parents." looking away she closes her eyes as her tail sways across the ground.

She really didn't know what else to say. She wanted to say more, but she wasn't sure if she could...

Lenore grimaces at the mention of Rinion being dragged to a certain room, but bites her tongue to keep from saying 'ew!' Mostly because Krista didn't say anything when she and Mel answered about the 'staying in the room' thing.

But, she, unlike Krista, didn't ask to be told! So, "Ew," she says, a deeper grimace on her face. She then looks over at Rinion. "You know, he can sing buildings and things into being, don't you? He could be done with the stuff quicker than-" but she shiver and hisses happily when Mel bites her ear. It is a safe bet that she is not going to be in the conversation for a while.

Laer eyes Drac a moment, a frown on his face. "Thank you, but I would much prefer that you told me the other stuff you were feeling, as well," he says. Unbidden, the musical voice that can charm a woman out of her clothes grew in intensity when he said those words.
PostPosted: Sun Jul 29, 2007 9:50 pm


Krista arches a brow towards her husband then looks at Lenore "What do you mean? I didn't even know he even sings." she couldn't tell if Lenore said something or she was just picking on her. Looking back at Rinion she had the look of 'care to explain.'

Mel shakes her head before she nips at Lenore neck again "Baby, I think we need to behave. I would rather not have my twin see what we do." pulling back she runs her fingers though Lenore's hair for a moment before taking a seat across from her sister. Tapping her lap she was hoping Lenore was join her in her lap.

Drac felt the charm working, but at the same time she tried to fight it. Shaking her head she mews as she looks up at him "Laer, I can't....I mean..I don't want to look like a fool." closing her eyes she visiably shivers.

Lenore snaps out of it, but shakes her head at Mel's invitation to sit in her lap. She does so with a smile, to show that she doesn't mean to hurt her, she just doesn't think that the two of them would be down here much longer if she does so.

She looks at her half-brother, a little shocked that he had never mentioned it.

Rinion takes a drink from his tea, collecting his thoughts a moment. He had thought that he mentioned this to Krista before. But, he has a bad habit of taking for granted the fact that people with elven heritage know about their race. "All elves can sing," he says. "We just don't really do it often, at least not while we are in mixed company. And, I mean no offense by that term," he adds, hastily, too aware from his readings that women can be a bit moody at times during their pregnancies. "It just has a . . . headier effect on those that are not pure elves. To continue, though, most elves can sing things into being from their environment. They help the trees grow that way, they help the flowers grow. They keep things lush and green even in the bitterest winters in the same manner. And, it is the way they make homes into the trees in their land without hurting them. They can do all kinds of things with this ability. . . ."

"There you are, Kris," Lenore says, waving a lazy, taloned hand. She takes a delicate sip of her tea, knowing she won't be able to keep it down as long as she used to. . . .

Laer quirks a brow, still not realizing that his voice has grown a mind of it's own. "So, I get to be the fool and tell you that, after I left the clinic, I became aware that what I had done might have hurt my chances of getting you to go on a date with me?" he asks, the magic in his voice growing a little bit more intense.
