End or no end

Elliot curl up against Jacob and sighed, "We could get a dream catcher," she smirked before laughing a little. She went back to running her hand under his shirt and watched as it moved, "I... don't know what to do...." she felt like she should. She was supposed to make things better for him. His own personal nurse... but she didn't have any answers.

The Making of a New Queen

Anastasia woke with a start when Samsul climbed back into the bed. In the last few months it was very rare that she managed to sleep through the night. She looked toward the babies snoring and smiled before looking to Samsul. She wrapped her arms around him and gave him a kiss, "How are they?" She whispered.

Very few things dragged Samsul out of the bed and brought him right back. So, she could only assume that he was checking on the babies. They'd wake up soon and cry wanting food. She rolled onto her stomach, glad to have her body back to normal size and being capable of doing so. She kissed Samsul again, "My parents said they are going to be leaving tomorrow..." She said with a yawn. It had been nice seeing her parents for so long and letting them see their grand children grow up a little. They had offered to allow them to stay in the palace with them but they declined, wanting to continue to live on their farm. However, they promised to come back for every birthday.

The Making of a New Queen

Anastasia looked at him, "Some will...Those whom we did not just end a war with..." She sighed and adjusted Alexandra in her arms, "We hid this to protect us from anyone who might not want us to have heirs. The same people who tried to kill me when I was a babe... The same people we just ended a war with... There is still tension. Thus our reasoning and they might take it wrong."

She sat up slightly and kissed Samsul, "Everything is going to be fine though," She looked at Alexandra, "They are going to be happy."

The Making of a New Queen

Anastasia looked down at Alexandra as she thought, "If we wait too long. Surrounding kingdoms might be mad... We already hid my entire pregnancy from them. They might feel as though we don't trust them.... So sooner the better. I think maybe once we get used to having these two. When we are looking a little less tired."

She bounced Alexandra in her arms a little as she started to cry a little. She held her finger out in front of the baby girl and watched as she grabbed it. Anastasia smiled, "They are absolutely beautiful."

She looked at Samsul again and kissed him, "It wasn't as scary as I thought."

The Making of a New Queen

Anastasia smiled as he kissed her and nodded, "With you as their father, I don't think there is a way for them not to be strong."

She laughed a little rubbed Alexandra's back as she fed. She rested her head on his shoulder. She was happy again, that her mother was alive. Not only to see her hold her children but it was nice to know that just like herself Samsul would be getting a bit of a break from his kingly duties. Long enough to get to know their children. When Marcus finished, she picked him up and handed him to Samsul. She adjusted Alexandra in her arms and smiled at the baby. She couldn't think of a time in her life that she had been happier. This was easily on par with their wedding day. She looked at Samsul and kissed him, "You are going to be a wonderful father."

The Making of a New Queen

Anastasia took Alexandra from him and placed her on her chest before she took Marcus as well. Once they were both feeding, she took the blanket and cover most of their little heads. She looked at Samsul, "He might have been. A lot of people are scared to drop babies. And these ones are half human, he isn't used to that. He is used to strong durable Lost Elf babies," She smiled down at them, "It is good that he was worried... It means that he cares."

She moved over in the bed slightly and patted the spot beside her, "Lie down."

The Making of a New Queen

Anastasia woke sometime later. She rolled over and looked at Samsul smiling. He was the only one, besides the babies, in the room. It seemed the rest were giving them some time alone with their children. Due to how late they arrived and sent someone for her parents, they probably wouldn't arrive till the next morning. She looked at her babies who lay together in a crib, sleeping. She looked up at Samsul again and smiled, "Grab them for me? I should feed them."

She sat up a little on the bed, "I was very happy to see your father hold Marcus... Did he hold Alexandra at all?"

End or no end

Elliot looked up at him when he woke, "Oh," She said, "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to wake you...."

She placed her hand that was on under his shirt on the side on his face. She gave him a small smile before kissing him, "I didn't help any... did I?"

End or no end

Elliot's hand ran under Jacob's shirt. She continued to run her fingers along his chest, as well as whisper to him. It seemed to be working and she wasn't really that tired. She just wanted Jacob to get a good night's sleep. If that meant her staying awake rubbing his chest and whispering to him, she was going to do just that.

End or no end

Elliot woke slightly when Jacob shook under her. She looked up at him, "Shh... Jacob, it's okay," she whispered not wanting to wake him. She ran her fingers through his hand and a hand over his chest. She leaned forward and kissed him, "You're fine..."

She kept rubbing his chest as she rested her head back down. She spoke quietly, telling him everything was alright.
