Us and Them

Gavin: Come on babe you can do it you're strong he encouraged her

She took a deep breathe and she tried to eat the food, but she took one bite and she left the room to be sick.

Gavin: sighed deeply and looked over at Charlie What now? Maybe we can blend it or something and mix it with the blood?

Charlie looker thoughtful. "We might have to...but its the thought of solid food that makes her sick."

Gavin: Yeah but if it's mixed into the blood and in a cup or something she wouldn't really know would she?

"Probably not, I'll see what I can do."

Gavin: If you need me to do anything just say so... I feel like I'm no help at all lately...

"It doesn't help that your boss has you on stupid shifts."

Gavin: Yeah I know but I'm one of the few guys that doesn't have a "family" that he knows about so I get the crappy end of everything right now.

"Don't worry Gavin, you're a great help to her as it is."

Gavin: I don't see how...

"Because you're always there." Esmerelda told him. "Whenever I need something or someone, you're always there."

Gavin: But I failed you Esme... he whispered moving to her side quickly and wrapping his arms around her muttering I failed them...w-what if I fail our baby too?

"You haven't failed me." She told him, sliding her arms around him. "I failed them to, but neither of us will fail our baby."

"Um, can I interject please?" Charlie asked. "Lucy and the puppy will be back soon."

Gavin: held her tightly for a long moment before he processed what Charlie had just said and he lifted his head to look at her What?

"I know a witch, she can bring them back."

Gavin: What is Lucy doesn't want to come back?

"Then she doesn't have to."

Gavin: just looked at Esme then

Esmerelda looked at him.

Gavin: What do you think about that?

"I think its worth a try."

Gavin: gave a simple nod of his head

She rested into him.

Gavin: Want to go lay down and rest?
