"No one is thinking that, I am trying to have a joke around with you Altair." Reid snorted, crossing his arms with a shake of his head. "It is clearly you thinking that about yourself."

"Tesni is devastated, she hates seeing you hurt like we all do, hm? Cain has been perking up a bit, just seems tired. Logan... not great, physically fine but Mason scared him and now with him not being around, and knowing that when he is caught he'll be killed. He hates us, in the worst way though - absolute silence, isn't coming near us.. going into the corner of the room and not moving when we get close to him. Like he used to be."

"Just... get him flowers and see what he does?" Elliot shrugged. "You know him better than me, Erin, I don't know!"

"She's - oh." Marlowe whispered, fighting with herself to keep her tone neutral. "So, how do you- how do you feel about it? Is she keeping it?"

Phoenix Sat 19 Jun - 12:55

“I don’t know mom… I don’t know. She doesn’t want it if I don’t want it and I don’t know.. this… wasn’t planned.”

“Right… right. Get him flowers.” Erin nodded, wringing her hands. “I’ll be back soon.” She kissed her brothers cheek before heading out.

“Bring everyone here… I want everyone, and mom… I want mom too… where’s mom?”

“Because you’re all acting like I’m elderly and incapable!”

**BestNameEva** Sat 19 Jun - 13:00

"Lots of babies aren't planned," Marlowe assured softly, "It isn't unusual. I - suppose the question should be; do you want to be a dad? Early mornings, helping with homework, being told your the worst person in the world; first words, lots of cuddles, being called a little person's hero and unconditional love. You get both extremes, Theo. Are you.. ready for that, for the sacrifices it brings. You'd be supported, both of you would - you know that, you'll have me as a permanent baby sitter; your uncles and aunts."

"Erin, wait..." Elliot called after her with a small laugh, joking after her. "Wait until he forgets you asked him to do something, otherwise it looks like your just doing it because he told you to."

"I'll call her now, I'll get them all here now. Your mom is with Tesni right now."

Phoenix Sat 19 Jun - 13:05

“I never wanted to be a dad after the piss poor example of what we had… and I don’t think I can deal with the noise Mom… we both know I’m weird, different. I can’t deal with stimulation the way most people can… I’m worried there’ll be a baby and I’ll find it so unbearable I just… walk out…”

“Thank you daddy…”

“I… but what if he’s mad at me? For just - god I’m stupid. Ive just been taking and taking and I’ve not given anything. I’ll just - I’ll sleep with him. That’s giving isn’t it? It’s what men want in the end, he’ll be happy with that, I’ll sleep with him tonight.”

**BestNameEva** Sat 19 Jun - 13:21

"Your sat in a damn hospital bed, we aren't doing anything other than visiting you! That's what you do when family are in hospital!"

"No, no." Elliot laughed. "Just.. plan something for next week, flowers or chocolates or... I don't know a cinema trip, cook a meal for just him and light a candle. It's about the thought, not the act. That's where romance lies."

"All of that is okay, it's all okay. If you can't do it, tell her. You need to communicate that, you're not a bad person for not wanting it Theo. You're a good person to be mature enough to know you won't be able to cope, you're responsible. If you don't want this baby, you don't have to have it."

"I'll.. I'll just step outside to call everyone okay? I won't be far."

Phoenix Sat 19 Jun - 13:27

“But it’s my fault, I got her pregnant… and she wants it. I can tell, but she’ll get rid of it anyway…”

“Okay.” Wren swallowed thickly, pushing herself to sit up.

“God why am I so bad at this?” Erin grimaced, putting her hand to her head. “I suck, no wonder he doesn’t want me to be his girlfriend.”

“It’s pity. I don’t want pity.”

**BestNameEva** Sat 19 Jun - 13:31

"Robbie has said he is falling for you so," Elliot shrugged. "I don't think you have to worry about something like that. Come on Erin, you're over thinking all this."

"Funny thing about babies, for some people at least, you only really want them if they are with the person you want to spend your whole life with. If she is willing to not have a baby to be with you then, that's her choice.. just like you raising it or not is yours. I'll be behind you either way, Theo. Whatever the two of you decide."

Louis kissed her forehead before stepping out of the room, pulling his phone from his pocket and calling Karsi.

"Fine. I won't visit you anymore. We'll let the doctors know you'll have one kidney for life too, as you wouldn't want a pity kidney."

Phoenix Sat 19 Jun - 13:37

“I’ll feel bad mom…”

“Falling for me? No… no no this is bad. He can’t fall for me when I’m so shit.” Erin panicked then, beginning to pace.

“Hey, you just checking in?” Karsi greeted tiredly.

“Fine!”

**BestNameEva** Sat 19 Jun - 13:59

"No, no. She's awake, she wants everyone here." Louis hummed warmly, "She doesn't remember anything past the day Ezra was born but.. she's awake, Karsi."

"It's a good thing. You deserve to be loved, Erin..." He frowned. "It's scary, but.. we weren't going to fight it, remember?"

"If your not ready, your not ready Theo. I think you'd be a good dad though, you know what not to do - it's a good starting place."

"Fine." Reid mumbled, walking out.

Phoenix Sat 19 Jun - 14:03

“I meant that more for you! I can’t even do romance right! I - he deserves better than someone who’s not even cooked him dinner!”

“Oh shit she’s awake? Right! Right I’ll be there soon. I’ll be there as soon as I can be!”

“But the noise… it’s the noise I’m worried about the most mom…”

**BestNameEva** Sat 19 Jun - 14:12

"We can get you those earphones that muffles things a bit," Marlowe whispered, "There are lots of things around like that now. You'll always be able to go somewhere to get away if you need to, as long as you communicate well enough with Felicity I'm sure it'll be okay. It's all about communication."

"No, no. We agreed together, Erin - you can't back out from it now!"

"You and Tesni, I'll get Cain from Mila's room now. I imagine we aren't going to get Logan here though."

Your dad is being a dick Reid text Astrid.

Phoenix Sat 19 Jun - 14:15

“I can’t just abandon her because the kid is screaming though. Half assed parenting.”

When is my dad not being a dick? What’s he done now?

“What if I hurt him?” Erin whispered then, wringing her hands.

We… we do what we can. I’ll bring Tesni. I’ll see you soon.”

((Off to get stuck, I’ll be back in like an hour))

**BestNameEva** Sat 19 Jun - 14:23

(( Have fun! ))

"Yeah, see you soon." Louis whispered, hanging up.

"What if he hurts you? It - We just have to hope that you won't do that to each other." Elliot whispered with a small shrug.

Apparently I am close to crossing a line and everyone is just pitying him.

"You have the kid and you... try to forgive any guilt you feel or you try Theo. I can't tell you want to do, it's between you and your girlfriend."

Phoenix Sat 19 Jun - 15:40

“Tes!” Karsi called through once she hung up. “Your sister is awake, she’s asking for you!”

Elle giggled when she heard Karsi’s voice, reaching out to her when she saw her come through and toddling over from her playmat.

Erin swallowed thickly, moving to hug her brother, seeking comfort.

He’s feeling weak and useless, just ignore the grumpy bastard

“I feel like we want different things…”

Inside Wren was being checked over by the doctor, blood being drawn and other things being checked

**BestNameEva** Sat 19 Jun - 15:55

"What do you want? What do you think she wants?"

"She is? That - that's great. I'll be there now." Tesni grinned

(( Sorry sorting some things out ))

**BestNameEva** Sat 19 Jun - 15:55

"What do you want? What do you think she wants?"

"She is? That - that's great. I'll be there now." Tesni grinned

(( Sorry sorting some things out ))

Phoenix Sat 19 Jun - 16:04

“Is Tobias okay with the kids?”

“I think she wants the baby, but she doesn’t wanna raise it alone.”

**BestNameEva** Sat 19 Jun - 16:06

"Well... I have no answers for you here Teddy. You just need to decide what you are going to do, if you want her to keep it or not and then what she does is her choice. If she does chose to keep it, even if you say you don't want it; will you be involved anyway? Or are you going to.. just leave her to it?"

Phoenix Sat 19 Jun - 16:10

“If she keeps it I’ll be involved.” Theo nodded. “My responsibility.”

**BestNameEva** Sat 19 Jun - 16:31

"That is what you need to tell her then,"

Phoenix Sat 19 Jun - 16:35

“She’ll be here later I think…”

**BestNameEva** Sat 19 Jun - 16:40

"Okay. Until then, I'll make you a hot chocolate and you can choose something for us to watch. When she gets here I'll give you both privacy."

"He will be, yeah. Let's go." Tesni nodded.

Phoenix Sat 19 Jun - 16:46

“Thanks mom…”

Karsi nodded, kissing the top of Elle’s head and going upstairs to find Tobias.

**BestNameEva** Sat 19 Jun - 16:54

Tesni quietly heading into the hallway,,pulling her coat on.

Marlowe just smiled warmly, getting to her feet and heading to the kitchen. Taking her phone off of charge and texting Maddox: Are we still having that dinner date tonight?
