What would there ever be to forgive, John? *frowns and curls up next to him* What's gotten you so upset?

For one thing, Gideon's in hospital getting stitches in his hand. *kisses her forehead softly* And another... I know that I was right to test you and Zep to make you stronger, but - was I too harsh? When you said you were still scared of Billy, I got worried.

*sits up, immediately worried* Is he okay? Do we need to do anything for him? How did he get hurt? *closes her eyes* That's why I wasn't going to say anything... I just got a little freaked out when I came across him in the dark the other night. It's really okay.

He cut his hand working on that test he mentioned - with a hand saw. He's had to have stitches but I'm sure he'll be fine - I've been to see him. He came up with the idea to tell the doctor he's working on a bird house... smart boy... *can't help a small proud smile* We could go see him if you want, though I think he'll be home soon.

And angel... I wish you'd told me earlier about Billy... *cuddles her close, overwhelmed with love* I just worry that I've left scars on you and Zep that should not be there.

Oh, poor baby. I'll have to make him something special for dinner... *smiles* That IS smart. I can wait for him to get home. I just worry.

It... I wish you wouldn't be upset about this. It's not that big a deal, love. *kisses him softly* Sometimes it's the scars that make life worth living. *touches the faint ones near her mouth*

I'm sure he'll like that. *smiles* And I know, I worry too... and I'm sure Zep does. Gideon's a lucky boy to have us all looking out for him.

Scars... yes... I know what you mean there. *lays a hand briefly over his stomach, where a scar still resides from the car wreck* They do heal, after a while.

And... how are you feeling, other than what happened with Billy? *touches her face inquiringly, his head full of baby thoughts all of a sudden*

*smiles* I hope HE feels lucky. We're so lucky, all of us, to have each other.

*touches his hand* yes, they do. And sometimes we're better for them.

I'm good... a little nauseated, a lot tired, but good. From everything I've read, it's all normal. I should go to a doctor soon and find out how far along I am exactly...

I'm sure he appreciates us, as we do him. *kisses her*

Our scars... they help us know that we're alive. And I'm glad you're feeling OK. Yes, I advise a check-up soon. We want you both safe and sound, darling...

I've been... working on things for the baby. I've started learning to knit, and there's the clown puppet - not a mini Billy. Hopefully she'll look something like this (http://i1.iofferphoto.com/img/1142668800/_i/11009403/1.jpg)...

It was pretty harsh, yes, but I really needed it – now I can see it so clear. It saved me, John, and I am so grateful… *frowns* What about Gideon? I’m really anxious about him. Hope he is better now?

*reaches out to caress him* Dearest Zep, I am so glad you think so... sometimes I worry that I hurt you too much.

And Gideon is going to be fine. I'm certain of it.

OOC: RP post with Gideon is here (http://young-gideon.livejournal.com/1425.html) - Zep is welcome to come in if he wants! *grin* I think Gideon-mun has told Amanda-mun so hopefully she may join in too!

*strokes John’s hand, smiling* You didn’t John. It was my fault. And this… *touches the scar on his temple* I am not angry with Adam. Not a bit. *grins*

OOC: YAY!

*kisses Zep's hand gently* You and Amanda, you have come so far, learned so much. I adore you both.

OOC: *is so happy - this is an exciting game!*

Love you both *rubs his cheek against John’s* - and I hope to learn more!

OOC: Yeah it is – I really enjoy it:)

*turns and kisses Zep tenderly, with a soft moan*

I know you both will learn more. Love you both so much, need you...

Have you seen what I'm making for the baby yet? *shows him the picture of the puppet he hopes to make (http://i1.iofferphoto.com/img/1142668800/_i/11009403/1.jpg)*

*touches gently the picture, admiring* Oh, this is wonderful! It doesn’t look like Billy, but I really love it *smile*

*smiles lovingly at Zep* I think our child needs a puppet a lot less intimidating than Billy.
