[b]Jessalyn - Bus - Abram[/b]

Jess smiled as she took the water from him and drank a bit. Ben started gurgling happily and she smiled brightly, making kissing noises to her baby boy. 
She looked up towards Abram and cocked her head. It seemed like he was having trouble getting the bus going. It was still raining outside.
"I hope you don't have to go out in this rain," she said. "There's no more lightning, but I still don't think it's a good idea to get wet," she added, bouncing Ben and making him laugh. He turned his head towards Abram, becoming fascinated with what he was doing.
"You want to see Benny?" she asked and went closer so the baby could see better.

Ben blinked his large chocolate eyes and moved his tiny fists, reaching and grasping for the various strange looking items around him. When he tried to put his mouth on the shifter Jess moved back quickly, which caused Ben to voice his displeasure.
"I really need to make some toys for you," she said absently. She didn't really have any baby supplies. No real diapers other then the cloth ones she had made from old clothes, no rattles or pacifiers, no blocks or stuffed animals, nothing bright and colorful, no teething rings or things for him to chew on or put in his mouth.
He wanted to play and she had nothing for him. It would only get worse as he got older. She didn't want to even think about when he started teething and she would have nothing for him to chew on to relieve the pain of the teeth piercing through his little gums.

Jess's face went from happiness to worry. How was she really going to care for this baby as it grew? What if they didn't find anything along the way? Would he grow to resent her? Was she not being a good mother already? Jess really didn't know how to be a mother, she had just been going on instinct so far. What if that wasn't enough?

She turned and went to the door, looking out of the glass at the outside world. It was so big and dangerous. What if she couldn't keep him safe? What if she lost him? Just like she had lost Floyd?

[b]Katie - Bingo Hall - Tyler, George, Jacob[/b]

Katie cried out happily when he said she could keep the kitten. She hugged him tightly with one arm, holding the kitten out of the way with the other. "Thank you Daddy!" she cried. "Thank you, thank you, thank you!"
She gave her daddy a big kiss on the cheek as he put her down. "I'm going to call him-" she stared and was cut off by someone running into her daddy from behind. She gasped, tucking the kitten against her instinctively to protect it.

When the strange boy saw the kitten in her arms and came closer she backed away and behind her daddy, not wanting the new person to try to take her new friend. 
"Daddy...?" she asked, fear and uncertainty in her voice.
