Gunner followed Anna into her room and looked around a little, after all this was the first time he'd been in here. Although, it was almost identical to his own room. He looked over to her when she climbed onto her bed and noticed his shirt and watched her quickly stuff it under her pillow. He laughed and grabbed it out, shedding his own sweaty shirt for the clean one. He hopped onto the bed and put his hands behind his head, "I know," He said simply to her comment about its comfort. He looked at her as she started rambling again and smirked, "I'm staying, Ross. Sebastian would kill me if I didn't make sure you'll alright when you wake up... If you are out for that long, I'll go sleep on the couch or something like a good guard dog," He joked, using Jace and Rae's nickname for him after he started to show them a bit of his darker side. He used it though to set her at ease a little, he was going to protect her, no matter what. He looked up at the TV and pressed his lips into a thin line as he thought about a movie to watch, "I don't know..." He climbed off the bed and started to look through the small collection she had with her. Finally choosing an action packed one that had no romance in it, he popped it in before returning to the bed. He figured it was best that they avoid any romantic scenes for now... Not the best idea to watch them when the two of them had confessed to still loving each other but weren't acting on it to let Anna get herself together again. He smiled at her, "I'll be amazed if you manage to sleep through all the explosi-" His words were cut off because as he looked at her, she was already fast asleep. He laughed a little and leaned back to watch the movie. He'd move to the couch later. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~3 WEEKS LATER~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Serena was lying across the back seat of the black sedan with her head on Sebastian's lap and her hand on her stomach. She wasn't feeling all to well, which over the last ten weeks was nothing new. However, adding the fact that she was struggling to keep ghosts out of her head as they tried to lure to death and that she already couldn't fit into her normal clothes [i]and[/i] was starting to feel fat, she was down right miserable. She was dressed nicely for court but nothing that a guardian would wear. Guardian garb was highly uncomfortable and she really didn't want to be fat and uncomfortable. Of course, it was also partially due to the fact that Sebastian had basically banned her from being his guardian as he took Gunner and Anna, both who sat in the front, to replace her while away from the school. Serena couldn't really be mad about it, she wasn't exactly in any kind of condition to fight. Sadly, she knew that Sebastian's parents weren't going to be any kinder due to all of this... In fact, she was pretty sure the only reason they let her stay with them was because she was Sebastian's guardian. Now she was just his pregnant fiancée... And that ring meant little to them. She sighed and forced herself to sit up as lying down was starting to make her car sick as well as pregnant sick. She struggled a little due to the fact that her abdomen just didn't help her the same and leaned against Sebastian. She took his hand in her own and kissed it lightly, "I think the only thing about this trip that I'm looking forward to is seeing the Queen again..." She knew he agreed. Despite them being family, Sebastian hated Serena being around his family more than she did. In fact, he hated being around his family. She smiled slightly, "And I suppose Kenzie... It'll be nice to have at least one person in your family being happy for us." Kenzie had almost immediately taken a liking to Serena. Serena was pretty sure the girl took a liking to anyone that Sebastian took a liking to, they were close like that. It made Serena smile just thinking about. She kissed his cheek before resting her head on his shoulder, "The court also has wonderful food... I think I could eat," She said, trying to think of all the good things that would be waiting them at court and tried to ignore the ominous cloud that was his parents. She took a deep breath, "Everything is going to be fine... They can't do much... Not if the Queen is going to be so happy for us..."
