Winter, 43-81379 So there it was. The dull blue egg sat there in the crib joey had bought recently and wrapped by a big warm blanket. She leaned over the edge of the crib and watched it silently, putting a hand on it and feeling its warmth. She frowned. It took her a long time to lay that. She wondered if others had taken just as long. After she had rested when laying it he had to clean up a bit which was easy but she was tired still yet so it was rather hard. After then she wrapped it up and went to sleep. Then she woke up, and she's been watching ever since. Atleast now she can live slightly normally for a few weeks till it hatches. But when will it hatch? What if it hatches and shes not there? Thats why she is going to lock herself in her dorm when it gets closer to hatching. So she can be there for it. But wait, couldnt she give the egg to an adoption center. yes she could. But would she?
<span style='width:100%;font-weight:bold; font-size:10px'>Out of Character</span> <table class='ooc'><tr><td>Character: Kjetta Pujcmatt NOTE: POSSIBLE STRONG LANGUAGE</td></tr></table> Kjetta was on Dorm Patrol. This related to Professors of the Acadamy walking up and down the corridors, looking for suspicious activity from the students. Occasionally, this meant finding the students involved in hosting parties ect. Kjetta didn't particularly like crashing parties- he was always one for a party. That's partly the reason he hated Dorm Patrol with a passion. On this particular night, all had been quiet but he'd been told by one of the other Professor's that one of their student's had been acting rather strange recently and would Kjetta please drop by their dorm tonight and check all is well as the young one hadn't turned up to class for several days? Kjetta agreed before he had asked the student's name. Joey Kisan. Oh VOKC! He thought to himself. The same young female that he'd first got into a relationship with (against school policy) and, after she'd told him she'd got preganant by him, then ended up miscarrying his child. But after that talk, they hadn't seen or spoken to each other and Kjetta was worried as they hadn't exactly parted after that conversation on good terms. And yet, here he was pounding the same stone floor towards her room where they'd met on several occasions. His heart thumped loudly like a big bass drum as he got closer and closer. Finally reaching the door, he gulped and took a deep breath before rapping on the door. Would she see him?
Joey gasped from the sudden knock and covered the crib with large blanket. Oh not so obvious. Not. She slowly went the door and opened it. Surprised. "Oh! Proffessor?" she closed the door slightly so she could block the area where the crib was. "Whats wrong, sir?" he eyes wide with a slight frightfullness of hoping he would not find the egg in her room. She wanted this child now. But most likley he didnt want it. What would he say if he found out. She bit her lip and smiled nervously.
<span style='width:100%;font-weight:bold; font-size:10px'>Out of Character</span> <table class='ooc'><tr><td>Sorry for the wait, got tied up with goodbyes and stuff :( Am back now</td></tr></table> Kjetta waited, shifting his weight from one foot to the other in nervousness. He looked like a naughty school kid himself who's waiting outside the Head's office. When the door opened, he gulped and tried to hold on to his senses. He still had deep feelings for her and at this moment, he wanted to grab her and pull her into his warm embrace. But that won't do in a corridor. Not one bit. Erm.. Hello Joey. I was wondering... could we have a word?..... Preferably not in the corridor... He said hesitantly, glancing around at students walking past.
"I...uh....." she frowned and didnt want to just say no, for many reasons. She loved him, and she didnt want to say...well no to her love and upset him. And also he was a TEACHER. They are deifnatley going to get what they want no matter what. She glanced back alittle back making sure the cradle was covered and opened the door and moved aside so he could come in. "Sure.."
Kjetta's eyes locked with her's, not really noticing her hesitant nature. His brown eyes showed his love for her with a high intensity. He smiled softly at her as she moved to allow him in her room. He noticed the odd shape in one corner of the room, covered with a cloth but it didn't click what it could be. He walked over to a comfy chair and sat down, looking like he was exhausted. Which he was- he had to get up early that morning to go to an early morning meeting and now he was on late night Dorm Patrol after a full day teaching and he had to get up early again tomorrow! He was looking forward to the weekend. Joey, I'm here for a few reasons.. One is to say.... I'm sorry. I didn't mean those nasty things I said to you. I suppose, it was all a big shock for me. I should've stayed with you and been more supportive. I think I'm a bit of a useless person really He said the last sentance with a small chuckle. He really felt so incredably guilty after their argument and how he'd lost his temper and said a lot of things he really regretted. He wouldn't be surprised if she didn't want to come near him again, let alone have a relationship. His eyes were focused on the carpet, ashamed and he rubbed his hands nervously.
She frowned closing the door behind him, thus moving to him, tsanding there, listening to his words. She sat down silently on his lap, putting her body out of the view of the crib in the corner and held him tightly for a moment. "Its fine..... I understand..." she kissed his cheek lightly and forced a smile..a nervous one."
Kjetta moved to allow her to sit on his lap, his arms moving around her waist in support. He smiled softly at her, his eyes locking with her's. However, it was then he noticed- something wasn't quite right. A small frown briefly crossed over his face. One hand moved to gently stroke her cheek after kissing it. Joey, something's different about you.. I can't quite tell what it is. You're not hiding anything from me are you?
She bit her lip and whimpered a very soft whimper. "I-uh... i uh..." she held back a tear as she looked away, she curlewd up in his arms. She was gettinga little frail latley and she began to sob. She just had to cnufse for alittle longer, hopefully.
He held onto her tightly as she whimpered, turning away from him. Now he was suspicious. He swallowed, he felt a bit uncomfortable. His tail flame turned a orangey colour, one that was unsure and slightly tinged with sadness. Joey? Please, tell me the truth. He said softly, turning her face towards him gently
She opened her eyes and looked to the odd thing in the corner. She whimpered and then got off of his lap and locked herself in the bathroom. Slamming it shut and laying on the rug, sobbing. She knew he would find out anyways. She had nothing more to hide. And she was so afraid...so very afraid.
Kjetta looked puzzled, following her gaze to the odd shape he'd noticed earlier. He was going to run after her, but she was too quick, bolting the door. He sighed deeply and got up from the sofa. He had an awful feeling that whatever was under that cloth was the reason behind all this. He slowly moved towards it like it could bite him at any moment. He slowly removed the cloth and his jaw hit the fall. Almost literally. His shaking hand moved to gently brush against the warm egg. Could it be...? He thought shakily. His eyes tore off the egg towards her bathroom door, biting his lip and making it bleed. He covered it back up again to keep it warm and went and sat on the floor cross-legged in front of the door with his back to it. He sighed again. So this is why you haven't been in lessons. This is what you've been hiding from me... Why you've been hiding from me... His lip was bleeding a little heavier as he tried to hold back tears. There was no doubt in his mind. That little egg was a product of his and Joey's love for one another. You, you know I'll always support you don't you? I said that from the very beginning... I will support you... and... our child. If you want me to. But... you lied to me Joey... You lied... His voice wasn't as stable as it usually was- it wobbled all over the place in shock and his brown eyes were full of threatening tears
Joey's voice came softly from behind the door, she sniggled and then said "I thought you would be angery.... I told you was going to put it up for adoption..but i just can Kjetta. I cant to do that.... I cant do what my other did to me. I was...broken when i found out that I was adopted...i just cant let tha feeling come to my child" he wiped her nose as she lay on the floor. "I dont want to abadon it..i couldnt live like that."
He shook his head sadly. His brown eyes shut as a way to try and stop the tears falling but it didnt work. Blood and tears now fell from his face. He sniffed rather loudly and rooted in his pocket for a tissue, finding one then blowing his nose rather loudly. Joey, I could never be angry with you. Not with something like this. He replied softly, his voice still shaking, after a pause after her speech. I lost my parents Joey, my whole family. I saw my parents die in front of my own eyes. My sister is lost... So in some odd way, I know exactly how you felt and feel towards the pup. I don't want to abandon it either... But if you don't want me here.. I'll go. I will pretend I know nothing about it... I will have to supress my feelings for you... which will be hard but I can do it if you want me to...
Slowly the door opened and she wrapped her arms around him tightly. "No..dont go. I want you to be the father for this child. You would make a wonderful father" she nuzzled her head into his neck as she sat there from behind, arms wrapped around his chest. She still shed tears, slowly. But there were no whimpers and no sobs. Just tears. "I love you."
He didn't acknowledge that the door had opened, but felt her arms wrap around him protectively. His hands moved to gently touch hers as she hugged him, his eyes shutting softly for a moment. I don't want to go... I love you too Joey He relaxed completely, all the shock-induced tension was gone. Instead he was left with complete adoration towards Joey. And the pup he fathered.
She purred silently closing her eyes and still holding onto him. "Will you love our child?" she said softly opening an eye.
He frowned for a moment, confused by the question. He smiled, his tongue licking at the wound he'd made with his sharp teeth on his lips in an attempt to stop the bleeding. He smiled, causing a brief moment of pain. Of course. Why do you even doubt it? I love the pup already
She purred and stood "good..." she moved to the crib, unocering it and pulling out the egg. She sat down next to him and held the egg in her lap, wrapping her arms around it to keep it warm, purring as she did so, holding it close. "I wonder if its gunna be a boy or a girl...."
Kjetta smiled as he watched her go and get the egg, returning to sit besides him. One arm slid round her and another hand gently moved to touch the egg. Which would you like? He said softly, smiling
